And you might still miss some things the first time but it makes rewatches even better. I rarely feel the desire to rewatch shows, even good ones, Deadwood is the exception.

Hell even the set is amazing because the background extras took their roles so seriously, listening to the commentary tracks the lead actors noted that the background extras/actors developed their own routines and really made the camp come to life.

It had more of a living history museum or renaissance fair vibe than that of a stale set. Everyone invovled with the project had passion for their role no matter how small.

Right, I think he had a lot more in the tank that we never got to see.

For years I was upset that Deadwood never had a fourth season. When I learned more about Milch and listened to his recent memoir that came out in 2022 I was just glad those first 3 seasons made it to air.

Many people don’t survive all the drugs, family problems and a gambling addiction that he had going for him.

It would be cool to see the alternative universe where the other frat member becomes president or the one where Deadwood doesn’t get cancelled but this one could be a lot worse really.

BSG is a very different show but there might be some crossover between the fanbases. Deadwood is legacy HBO, the quality and depth of cast is on another level compared to what the scifi channel had at the time.

It’s also endlessly quotable, that’s one thing I miss about reddit is the small /r/Deadwood sub. You’ll see some general “cocksucka” quotes in the wild but that sub has multiple rewatches under their belt and uses the full range. I have to revist some posts there everytime I rewatch it.

Anyway, here’s one of my favorites from Wild Bill in S01E04: https://webm.red/view/cn5t.webm

Both shows are at the top but Deadwood’s dialogue has a deliberate rhythm to it that is unmatched. If you get on it’s wave length you’re in for a treat. I watch it at least once a year and never grow tired of it.

David Milch the creator details his thought process on the rhythm of the dialogue and the push back he got with use of obscenity here: https://youtu.be/F2qk7W8_KLE?si=LxeRNs2N_-kzKiGb&t=1196 (20:01) Once he’s done answering that question (around 29:00) i’d stop watching if you haven’t seen Deadwood as there are spoilers later in the talk.

Thank your ancestors for that. Couldn’t think up any new names on their way over so they resused a bunch.

I was a jean sleeper up till my early 20s. Not sure why, it just felt right.

Now I can sleep in gym shorts or jeans but prefer shorts. Anything less than shorts and REM sleep doesn’t happen for me, my body doesn’t like having it’s guard down that much I guess.

Like, why dont people who can just move?

Kind of a catch-22.

America is the best country in the world, if you’re rich. Once someones earning a lot and saved up move to New Zealand money the appeal isn’t as strong for most.

immediately go for northern europe

Oof. That’s akin to moving there in 1938. Bit of a risky proposition to say the least.

I wouldn’t move there now if allowed and I don’t even have illegally move to Mexico money.

Then ignore

I do for most threads on the topic unless I missed my entertainment quota for the day.

hiding in caves while bombs fall.

You honestly think the IDF couldn’t do better? That is massive cope lol.

And anyone who is using nukes to cover for genocidal actions needs to lose those nukes.

Well shit. Go take them then. Be the first one to ever do it and get your self in the history books.

But how many Palestinians were “eliminated” on the way to delivering

Thousands of people died in the allied Dresden bombing campaign in WW2, by design.

Hundreds of thousands died in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Doesn’t make the allies any less just in their fight. They did what was needed to win decisively.

Wars not pretty but often it’s necessary if you want to live.

I just don’t think that Israeli lives are any more or less important than Palestinian lives.

Sounds like complete pacifism. Is that correct? Is there a war now or at some point in history that you supported?

genocide supporting trash candidate who refuses to compromise

…with people who chant from the river to the sea yet cry genocide at every turn without a hint of Irony.

It’s complete horse shit

I take solace in the fact there’s not a damn thing you’re going to do that will change a thing.

Oh really? Hasn’t worked on the Houthis and they’ve been actively striking them for months.

Aside from that nuclear powers don’t have direct conflicts for obvious reasons. If the US even thought about it Israel would remind them of the Samson protocol.

You can mock them all you like but that isn’t going to make them show up at the ballot box.

I’m aware.

There are people who are going to be dumb about this and stay home or vote third party. Thing is there’s nothing anyone will say or do that will change their minds one way or another. I know because I voted for Jill Stein in 2016, in Wisconsin. Some have to make the mistake first hand to know it was wrong. It is what it is.

Upshot is I suspect major operations will be wrapped up by late spring. If so Gaza will be a distant memory to most voters in November.

Biden had an 81,000 vote margin in the key electoral college states to work with in 2020. Hopefully he can take the hit this Gaza situation will bring.

If he can’t, so be it. Life will just get worse faster but at least I’ll get to have a little bit of schadenfreude on the way down watching the Tiktokd left live the meme.

I’m saying they’ve been “educated” by Tiktok, AKA brainwashed.

Nationally, 48 percent of U.S. Millennial and Gen Z could not name a single one of the more than 40,000 concentration camps or ghettos established during World War II. This number is reflected in individual state outcomes, with an astounding 60 percent of respondents in Texas, 58 percent in New York, and 57 percent in South Carolina, unable to name a single camp or ghetto.

56 percent of U.S. Millennial and Gen Z were unable to identify Auschwitz-Birkenau, and there was virtually no awareness of concentration camps and ghettos overall. Only six percent of respondents are familiar with the infamous Dachau camp, while awareness of Bergen-Belsen (three percent), Buchenwald (one percent) and Treblinka (one percent) is virtually nonexistent.

When asked how many Jews were killed during the Holocaust, 63 percent of Millennials and Gen Z did not know six million Jews were murdered.

The state-by-state analysis yielded a particularly disquieting finding that nearly 20 percent of Millennials and Gen Z in New York feel the Jews caused the Holocaust.

A fifth of Americans ages 18-29 believe the Holocaust was a myth, according to a new poll from The Economist/YouGov.

They’re not my party. They actively fucked over my guy Sanders.

They are only better than the alternative fascists Republicans so they have my vote.

Unless bullshit like women being forced to birth dead babies appeals to you then they’ll have your vote as well. Things can always get worse beyond your wildest imagination.

I’m mid 30s so technically a millenial. Also I’m a progressive and voted for Sanders while you were playing with your fidget spinner in middle school.

Note the source of the poll. YouGov. They’re reliable and as I said that was one example. Every poll shows it’s young people.

But sure cling on to anecdotal evidence and call people you disagree with boomers. That’ll get you far lmao.

We had to work with someone in the area, better to do it with those who scored higher at understanding reality and rational thought.

Our other options were to trust those who worship a pedophile that married a 6 year old and raped her when she was 9. They will also behead you if you draw said pedophile with a crayon.

Not exactly the type of people you want to be allied with.

Judaism has some weird shit as well but I don’t have to take my shoes off at the airport because of them nor do they get all beheady when you wanna make some cartoons about Yahweh so they’re already streets ahead in my rankings.

Palestine doesn’t even have an army.

It just happened to have 24 battalions of Hamas terroists I guess eh?

Good news is 18 of them have been eliminated. Won’t be long now until the objective is complete.

Fucking disgusting.

Welcome to reality. Did someone tell you it would be pretty? Shame on them.
