Yes - I was sent a VHS tape from my local Toys R Us in the mail hyping the new Pokemon phenomenon before the games were out and before the show ever aired on TV. I watched on TV when it started airing and played the games when they came out. I played through Gen 1+2, collected Pokemon cards, but as I got older I ditched the cards and stopped playing the games.

Later as an adult I went back and re-played all of them. Although I started with FRLG rather than the original RBY, mainly so I could play through and trade my Pokemon up through each game. I still have most of the living dex on Pokemon Home, just recently beat Sword for the first time.

I regret ditching my cards back in the day, if I kept them I'd have a bunch that were worth something. I still have the VHS and the original Gameboy carts for RBY + G.

DAWG! You still have my VHS??? What a thief!

Liked season 1 a lot. Really excited its not a weekly thing, but one every day. Good stuff.

The OST from the movie is great

Yep, this.

My brother in law works HR for the government in DC. Has been remote for a couple years now. I think theyre (not him, his bosses) are pushing to get people back in the office. His boss told him the reason is literally the economy in DC. With all those people remotely working, money isnt being spent in DC that was previously. Its so stupid.

Unfortunately I dont work from home. I used to work somewhere it took me an hour- hour and a half to get there and 2 hours to get home. It was miserable. Did that for 2 years. Now work 15 min away. A lot better. Id still jump on anything remote that paid a similar salary in a heartbeat.

Why would he need to get any briefings at all? Hes entitled to Secret Service protection, not anything else.

He was referring to when he was President. For 4 years he knew all the nations secrets, had briefings daily, national security stuff etc.

Cohen is saying he doesnt want Trump
to be put in jail. Said some sort of house arrest. Hes concerned about secrets and all the daily briefings. Said Donald would trade them for a can of tuna.

I get what hes saying but Christ. The guy has got to pay.

And the Judge himself would have to be the one who rules on mistrial or recusal. Theyre only going to do it so when its denied they can further rile up their base that it isnt fair.

Oh and just read Habba said theyd be filing for mistrial very soon as if that wasnt the goal from day 1.

Starting again today? I thought I heard the defense may be recalling the Trump kids starting today. Cant remember which one.

Lawrence was first thing that came to mind

Looks like its up to 61% now.

I assume the judge has some ability to rein that in.

The article I read alluded to that, saying to the affect No chance Judge Engoron allows that many. You just know that it will be more firepower to Trumps claim hes being treated unfairly. So ridiculous.

When does the defense begin calling witnesses? I read that they are saying they could have potentially 127 witnesses which is just outright ridiculous. Stall stall stall.

I believe theres no court today.

Oh? I thought today was Ivankas day. Is that tomorrow? Damn.

Strap in gents. Another day of lunacy ahead.

That would be fantastic if he lost Mar-a-Lago. Cant even imagine the meltdown hed have after that.

Even though you can plead, in a civil case it can be used for negative inference.

I really thought that was what hed do, but this is interesting to note. Thanks.

He is literally admitting he over inflated the value because of some imaginary brand value that he is coming up with in his own head. Holy crap.

Correction: Apparently Federico Klein was sentenced to 70 months in prison, which is almost 6 years.

Thats a shame <\Seinfeld>

What are the chances Trump just pleads the fifth the entire time Monday?

Yeah, thanks Cable! You da man.

I'm still wondering if the judge is going to open with a new gag order for the attorneys. The way yesterday ended was nuts. I think Trump's attorneys were trying to derail the trial because Eric Trump's testimony was going so badly.

What time does everything start back up?

I am baffled by their constant attacks on the law clerk. What did this stem from?? They gotta be trying for some type of mistrial or something its bizarre.

oh shit I didn't know they were making a 4th one

@ScarfForLife

Yup, I knew this was coming. Super excited.

Absolutely loved the first 3.

Caesar has got to be one of the best new characters created in the last 50 years.

Thanks guys!

When is Trump Jr supposed to hit the stand?

So exactly. Anyone could then motion to have Jeffries vacate. So wed be back to a continuous circle of voting for a new Speaker.

The people mentioning the possibility of Jeffries

Couldnt any Republican then do exactly what Gaetz Zeus to McCarthy, to Jeffries?

Schneider is the worst Manager in the East and thats with Boone also in the East.

A Quiet Place

Marvel actually has had the rights to make a Hulk movie but not to distribute it. Universal held those rights. The deal for distribution rights lasts 15 years and since the last film was 2008, the rights are now back at Marvel completely.

So Nick, again, causes issues that he has to fix. Why the hell would he want to gather up a ton of Avengers DNA?? That just screams dangerous.

And how is it confined to one vial??

I stopped watching Wrestling for something like 15-17 years. This drew me back in a little and now I at least try and catch the Bloodline storyline. Its good stuff.

Only ever beat him with Game Genie. I can get to him and then he usually pummels me.
