    Yeah pretty sure Hansen is the poster child for that master race stuff they were talking about.

    Well, we got our answer to that one. I figured we'd see more of the scorpion when they realized it worked against the dragons at the loot train, but that was brutal.
    I never really liked Daenerys, but I like her character arc and the whole concept of power earned (Jon) vs. power by perceived right (her). Someone needs to tell her she's not nearly as smart or determined as Cersei, or her arrogance and stubbornness are going to get everyone killed. her arrogance thinking she is going to be the best ruler, but now willing to do whatever it takes and kill innocents also goes against her "freer of chains" title.
    I wonder if Cersei has any more wildfire left after blowing up the Scept of Baelor, and how that will play out. Does  Daenerys walk through the wildfire and earn some street cred with Westeros, or does someone whack her from within? I think if we lose Drogon (which I think we will, to close out the story loop), her usefulness goes way downhill.

    Loved last night's episode, though I think there a few flaws that will become more apparent once it sinks in. It's been that way the last couple of seasons though
    Questions to discuss;
    where was bran warging? If Beric played out his reason to be revived (saving Arya) , did the hound as well, or has he got another part to his story?  Is Cersei sailing to Winterfell to pounce on the North before they recover? (episode 4 preview) Those that survived- what is there end story? Assuming they didn't survive just have a happy ending. I expect they have a role to play in the future. I've read a lot of the complaints about the episode, and much is usual internet complaining, but the only two real complaints I have are that it was too dark, and that not enough characters died for the size of the battle. As for the darkness, I will rewatch with my contrast adjusted. The second is that too many characters survived. You can't tell me that Sam , who can't fight, survived being at the first point of attack , along with Grey Worm, Jamie, Brienne, etc. Ghost as well. We saw with Shaggydog that a hoard can easily overrun a direwolf, but Ghost somehow survived.

    I recently flew in the 737 max 8, and absolutely loved it. The amount of overhead space was way more than any other plane I've been on, the seats were super comfy, and the entertainment system upgraded.
    Totally worth the risk!

    He says that he only uses government supplied phones which he doesn't use that much, it's just incredible how he can tweet so much using his telekinetic mind, Americans will realize what this dummy has done to them and the country but it might be to late, and after yesterday it probably is.

    Same thread as every year...  we debate and doubt a player's talent and then at season's end find out that he's been playing injured...
    Just really seems apparent that he was pulled of six game too early

    I simply search within youtube winnipeg Hamilton (or whoever) 2018 cfl, and it usually pops up as one of the first. 
    they're usually up all season so you can rewatch games. They dont seem to get taken down. The link was also provided in another topic, I noticed.
    Glad I could help 🍻

    If I remember the case correctly, the problem with that case is that the prosecutors got over zealous and stuck to a first degree murder charge, when the evidence did not support that. Had they gone with second degree murder, or a similar, lesser charge, it would have been a much easier case to make. First degree murder requires clear intent, and without a body or witnesses it was never realistic. She's definitely guilty of something.

    What your looking for is coming. It's a pivotal scene.
     
    I find Westworld really hard to follow, but it's quality TV, even if you don't understand what is really going on. First episode of season two continues with the ambiguity.

    I don't understand this thinking. He likely knows his career has a short life span. And he's trying to get the most $$ out of it. Good for him.
