Urban had some interesting takes on actors too that sometimes were some of the best things I read on here..........especially with the ones he liked that challenged the usual takes (Olivier and Lange).......

Meanwhile, its been 4 days since 'urbanpatrician' last posted. Where are urbanpatrician and cherry68 anyway.......it's been quite a while now.......... As you are wondering about me, I briefly come back to explain. My posts were systematically deleted lately. I can see the off topic excuse for some of them, but not for the last 3 or 4. No point in wasting my time writing only to see my posts disappear after a while.

Pfffft....you can't just leave over moderators/Admins..........as many have noted I would have been killed on AwardsWatch because there's no "safe spaces" or something or for saying half the stuff I do on Politics like....... the Democratic Party IS the Republican Party in 2020, meet the new boss same as the old boss as The Who phrased it and Stacey Abrams looks even more like Trump on December 14th than she did on November 14th, etc....................... but do I let that ever stop me? Do I go away for weeks at a time, no matter how much people would love it if I did? Fnck no! ........... several of the moderators/Admins owe me personal favors for telling them the best places to dispose of bodies on the East Coast and 4 of them owe me money to pay off their substantial gambling debts ...........though they can give as good as they get too - heck one has LITERALLY posted The Strokes song "You Talk Way Too Much" when I was at my most chatty/argumentative (that was pretty good shade though I must admit ) ............but what would this board be without me speaking my truth that Denzel Washington is you know in the Jeff Bridges class and not the Jack Nicholson class or me making fun of Daniel Day Lewis as THE "GOAT" for people who are apparently mathematically challenged and think his ~6 great performances are ~ 60 great performances? .........so let's all wear our support cherry shirts until cherry68 and urbanpatrician come back........I was going to wear my "Free Cherry" shirt but people just think that's giving away the fruit so it doesn't really have the same effect.

Certain people will chase out everybody that disagrees with them. There's a difference between differing political viewpoints and being a tinfoil hat conspiracy theorist piece of rancid shit. Thinking this election was rigged is on par with thinking Obama wasn't born in the U.S. in the delusional scumfuck scale. So spare me the disingenuous violin for that LOOOOSER!!

Maybe the only person here as obsessed with lineups as me.

To think all that stood in the way of a coup in a western democracy was a handful of judges. Thank goodness they did their jobs, even some of his own appointees, but what if they hadn't? Shouldn't be that easy to overturn an election. And imagine if GOP had the House and could reject a slate of electors? Won't work this time around but might in the future if they have the majorities. We could see that happening in 2022 and Biden might very well be impeached. Dems and liberals need to stay unified until we can make significant structural changes that unrig the system that benefits GOP unfairly, especially in Congress. The coalition that voted for science and democracy in 2020 needs to stick together because those things are still on the line going forward. Scary time...

Perhaps I'm being too sensitive, but one particular person has brushed up against four different people and harassed them for their politics... which I would be okay with if he actually defended his positions, but he never has. If anyone expresses a different viewpoint, he insults them and refuses to answer any of their legitimate questions to him. That has happened to at least two different users. I'm just fed up with that one guy in particular, tbh.

I'm just fed up with that one guy in particular, tbh. Someone that I have spoken with privately. Unfortunately, he has shown no desire to communicate in an adult manner, so I don't engage with him anymore. There is a wise saying that I have heard spoken: Never argue with an idiot, for they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

so it looks like the coup's officially over. McConnell has publicly accepted Biden's victory and recognized the historic nature of Harris' vice presidency, and now he's warned Congressional Republicans against challenging the electoral college vote. Without McConnell's backing the pushback in Congress is going to be minimal at best. Maybe the most extremist Trumpers but hardly a partisan coalition. They didn't have the numbers regardless but it's not like Republicans have been coy about supporting symbolic longshot efforts to overturn the election so far.
Does this calm the hive or divide the party even further? Time will tell. Can't see the base being happy about this when (if?) the story makes its rounds on Newsmax and Fox.

some startling numbers out of Georgia: 76K new voters have been registered since the election and 56% of them are under 35. Slightly under half, 46%, identified themselves as white. Some are new residents, some are 18 year-olds. There's clearly going to be a huge runoff turnout.

based on polling tendencies Perdue & Loeffler will win by 22

GA polls were accurate in the general election but yeah, I'm expecting Purdue to win by 2-3 points and Loeffler to win by 0.5 or 1. Dems just can't match the GOP's communism and election fraud dogwhistles. You can't argue with stupid.

Think we may have lost Kirk-Picard at least temporarily as well - he hasn't posted anything that I can recall in a long while and was a pretty sharp guy with actors and performances and would have hot takes on politics from time to time. I remember he got into some hot water at the end but can't recall details, hopefully all 3 come back if they want to......
