Pea soup is actually pretty great. But you will never catch me eating peas in their natural state though....

Currently playing GOTG. It's a nice little game but sometimes I wish they tone down the banter a bit. I understand that a big selling point of the GOTG is the whole team rapport between all of them but sometimes I wish they would just STFU for a minute or two

Those "rigged" conspiracy theorists should go outside and touch grass

 I bet that SB that had the Rams and the Bengals must have blown everyone's mind.....

Congrats to the Kansas City Swifties!

Seriously though, who do you think is a competent enough journalist to interview Putin? If you were in charge of setting it up, who would you pick for the job?

Are you being this oblivious on purpose?

I can pick the weather guy from the local channel 5 news in Peoria, IL, but that wouldn't matter if Putin doesn't give them the green light. Do you still think anybody can walk to the Kremlin doors and ask for a shoot interview with Vlad without risking being thrown into a Siberian prison for life?

How many "competent journalists" do we actually have anymore? I can count maybe a handful and few if any of them are in the good graces of the establishment. Who would you have picked to do it?

The question you should be asking yourself isn't who would I pick but who would Putin pick? You think Putin allowed Tucker to interview him for his journalist acumen? LMAO

Again....it's Tucker Carlson

There's a reason Putin chose Carlson to interview him, because Tucker is a complete tool. You think he would let an even remotely competent journalist to interview him and not throw them in jail?

Pffft it's Tucker Carlson. Russia can have him LOL

LOL no he doesn't. Putin was talking down and making fun of him the entire time

Sure, Disney produced a few bombs in 2023, but it is hardly a dent in the Mouse's armor, considering its' parks generated revenue for the first time in a long time.

Disney reported $500 million in cost savings for the quarter and says it’s “on track to meet or exceed our $7.5 billion annualized savings target by the end of fiscal 2024.”

Free cash flow for the quarter stood at $886 million.

Broken down by segment, Disney’s revenue was as follows: $10 billion for its Entertainment division, comprised of TV, film and streaming businesses, which was down 7% from the year-ago quarter; $4.8 billion for Sports, including ESPN and Star, which is up 4%; and $9.1 billion for Experiences, including parks and consumer products, at an increase of 7%

Linear networks sales fell 12%, as direct-to consumer revenue increased by 15%. Content sales and licensing revenue, which includes box office results, dropped by 38%, a hit Disney attributes to poor performance for “The Marvels” and “Wish” compared to “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” and “Avatar: The Way of Water” in the comparable year-over-year quarter.

Wall Street forecast earnings per share (EPS) of 99 cents on $23.6 billion in revenue for Disney’s most recent quarter, according to analyst consensus data provided by LSEG, formerly Refinitiv. Disney reported diluted EPS of $1.04 on $23.5 billion in revenue. With some favorable adjustments, that EPS increased to $1.22.

With those insane numbers, $1.3B almost seems laughable

I wonder how much money Disney actually spent on marketing, considering how many movies flew over most viewers' radars

I've been asking this question for awhile but supposedly they view her as a threat just because she voiced some things here and there against some republican people running in races, voiced concerns about women health care, and told people to go out and vote (didn't say who to vote for...just go vote). 

 

She's really barely done anything but they're just afraid of her influence on people in an election even though she's barely been politically active.  Personally?  I just want them to stop talking about her at the football games.  I don't even watch football like talking about and it was super annoying when I was watching with my folks and they kept shifting the camera up to the box  with her in it.  WHO FUCKING CARES!?

I've read somewhere that Taylor Swift assisting Chiefs' games has actually generated them a revenue of over $300M during this season alone. So KC is hoping that Kelce and Taylor better stick so they can keep taking in that sweet Swiftie $$$$

Speaking of The Brave Little Toaster, I may have to return to this scene again

I dunno why this simple scene with barely any dialogue at all is so emotionally powerful. It was sad to me then, and even now it brings me sadness

Why is MAGA pissed off at Taylor Swift? 

Because she's making young people vote

Voting should only be for senior citizens dammit!

How ironic that the same people complaining about small warnings at the beginning of old Disney movies are probably the same ones complaining about same sex couples in new Disney movies

Can we also change it to He-Ra?

It seems that social media literally exploded with

Probably all the Niners fan stashed away from the 90s still waiting on another SB win LOL (kinda like the Cowboys nation)

Yeah, what some studios consider "seasons" is pretty wild. The number of episodes can range from 6 to 100. It's funny how you are on episode 182 sometimes and it's still "season 2"

What surprised me the most as an adult is how short some 80's cartoons actually were (most of them never got past their first season of 13 episodes)  and since I wasn't aware of the whole concept of "syndication" back in the day, I wasn't aware that some of them had already been cancelled years ago and we were just getting reruns

Capcom's D&D series was definitely a highlight as well

Well leave it to the Lions to have a complete meltdown in the second half LOL

Jesus Christ that was some of the sloppiest non-Philly playoff football I’ve ever seen by the Ravens tonight. Reffing towards the end definitely feeds the “NFL is rigged/WWE vibes”, but really Baltimore was just bad.

Well those screenwriters better pull out some Vince Russo-type shit cuz the Lions are decimating the Niners. That rushing game is tearing SF a new ass

If Mahomes can get to a SB by going through Buffalo AND Baltimore on the road, he can have my respects
