Agreed. “Oh, happy dagger…”

Apart from the feels from the flick, thank you for replying. Please know that it matters.

All the best to you.

…when my best friend at the time both murdered his wife and two beautiful children before taking his own life.

Somehow, the dark humor of the film, including the explicit references to suicidal ideation and consequences, was both deeply cathartic and healing.

Somehow it hit me at that age square in my heart.

I know and respect that “H&M” isn’t for everyone. Nor, is it the right thing for everyone in whatever their current story happens to be.

But, for me, it was dead right at the time. And, was also dead right a few years later…

Repeal “Citizens United”. Anything less is pissing into the wind.

RIP Bud Cort.

“H&M” - seeing it for the first time in 1987 at the tender age of 19 - remains one of the most formative of my developmental life experiences.

And, overturn “Citizens United”. Which made the Epstein thing possible.

“There’s some issues here; we fixed those issues, we’ve had some great success from this operation, and we’re leaving Minnesota safer,” Homan said.

F***you, Tom Homan and the whole incompetent clown administration.

Agree, don’t bother during “winter”. We haven’t had a decent one since 2013-14. Better off heading up to Bemidji or Grand Rapids. Or, Ely.

Re: the theologically “conservative” Lutheran churches (LCMS, WELS, and likely some smaller groups), many share that sentiment and feel a tragic loss of disconnection from historical roots. Many might wish to visit a church where family were baptized, but can’t abide the narrow othering.

How, exactly, is being a narrow minded conservative in conflict with WELS membership? FTR, my family had LCMS roots and I’d ask the same of most members in that case as well?

Two kingdoms is not exclusive of compliance with authority.

Cool to see the history. Later in life I’ve become familiar with the bicycles, but as a life long Minnesotan, my growing up notion of CCM was the maker of the best hockey skates that I could never afford. A pair of Super Tacks was badass.

Jeff Lynne’s vocals in that performance are pretty damn sweet. But, yep, RIP PRN

So, apparently today is the 50th anniversary of the release of “Taxi Driver.”

Yes. Yes I am about to stream it.

Heartbreaking and epically beautiful at the same time.

Well, there is the thing with the DHS head and her approach to disobedient dogs. Go figure.
