The truth of the Lindsay Clancy trial is less important than the potential for change that can come from it.

If it ends up being Patrick Clancy who did it, that doesn’t really do anything. Domestic murders are dime-a-dozen, which sounds harsh but really they happen all the time and nobody does anything to try and solve the issue because of how deeply the root causes are ingrained within our society.

If, as most of the evidence suggests, postpartum psychosis was involved, there is a chance for some real progress. If this leads to more discussion about recognizing signs of postpartum mental health concerns, that is a long-term benefit for society.

You have a chance to push a narrative to create change. Do it, regardless of what you personally believe.

Blind Waters (2023)

3.4/10 IMDb, 2.2/5 Letterboxd.

I actually quite liked this! The shark cg is predictably terrible, but that’s really the only major problem with the movie. The acting is surprisingly solid and there’s some genuinely interesting creative choices here. Check it out.

Major spoilers ahead:

>!When we see the family of three talking with each other on the boat, we know that they’re probably going to die. They’re on board with a killer and this is a shark movie. But we get a surprising amount of personal details from their conversations that makes the viewer care when they do inevitably get eaten by the shark. In a different movie, they’re the main characters.!<

>!Despite the fact that we know Gabe to be a killer from the first time we see him properly, he only kills one person during the events of the film and this is off-screen at the beginning. The actor does a good job showing how the character blends in well with the rest of society and we don’t get a glimpse into his disturbing mind until his final scene.!<

Is Political History unnecessary?

I think so. Truth exists, but isn’t clear. Every article recommendation you will ever hear is politically motivated, whether or not it is true. Articulate and reasonable thought is useful. It exists to satisfy a goal rather than to display truth. You might find that privately held statistics are likelier to be accurate, but that seems to me to be all there is to trust.

What you need for policy is time and experience interpreting data. That is all.

What you need for theory is the ability to accurately imagine an abstract or detailed system and how it responds to abstract or detailed stressors. That is all.

This is my thought. How do you feel?

T-rac redesign

Kind of surprised nobody made a post outside of the memewar and titans subs but here it is in case others didn’t know.

Who follows who on Instagram.

Formatted as: does [left column] follow [top row]?

Haven't put any nos on things relating to Garcia and Palacios as they haven't necessarily integrated with the squad yet.

Why does Man City insist on having at least one absolutely horrendous kit a year?

I thought Man City were safe because none of their outfield kits are genuinely terrible this year. But that orange and black hexagon goalkeeper kit…

Why do they do this?

What if JaMarcus Russell played his senior college season?

Say he decides to play another year in college even though the next QB draft would prove to be much better, featuring Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco.

Future HOF-er Calvin Johnson surely goes first overall to the Raiders. Lane Kiffin gets the player he prefers.

The Lions needed o-line help. Maybe they select fellow HOF-er Joe Thomas. The Browns, who picked him third, become even more miserable.

If Russell goes in 2008, do the Dolphins draft him first overall if he plays well in his final college season? I think so, meaning they never sign Chad Pennington who instead goes to the only other team seriously interested in him, the Minnesota Vikings. They went 10-6 with Gus Frerotte and Tarvaris Jackson, what could they do with Pennington?

All of this discussion is of course completely pointless as Russell might have been even worse as a Miami Dolphin.

Ryan Leaf is clearly a worse draft bust than Jamarcus Russell and there should be zero debate.

The worst you can really say about Russell is that he was undisciplined and below average. He even had a few good moments. The least-bad qb in that draft was probably Kevin Kolb.

Ryan Leaf also had off-field issues and was genuinely terrible.

I curse the Colts for being intelligent enough to select Peyton Manning over him.

The kits are see-through.

I’ve seen the posts by the club about the Al-Ahli friendly. The Hudl tracking vests are clearly visible underneath the shirts. Are the kits really that thin?

Unpopular opinion?: I’m completely fine with the water buffalo in Apocalypse Now

They were going to kill it anyway and it shows up at an appropriate moment in the film. So, Apocalypse Cow.

Title: Quartet

You know how they always seem to have a string quartet playing at rich parties in the movies? You don’t see them a lot, they’re just in the background of whatever drama goes down.

This movie would follow the members of a quartet starting from when a murder+heist takes place at the mansion they are performing at. A detective arrives at the scene and questions them before revealing she’s from a futuristic law enforcement agency (not like the TVA from Loki, which exists out of time. This one is just in the future).

The detective reveals she is chasing an unknown time-traveling criminal mastermind who appears to be collecting artifacts from rich people throughout history to assemble a MacGuffin that would make their time signature completely untraceable.

She enlists the quartet to be her eyes and ears precisely because they’re the people that never really get noticed at these events.

What ensues is a wise-cracking, music-filled social satire that takes place across time and space. It takes a darker turn towards the end when they figure out that the mastermind is a serial killer who wants to use the MacGuffin to ensure they can commit unlimited murders without any chance of getting caught.

How cheap would Jamie Vardy be?

We need an experienced option up front, if only for a year, and Vardy is a free agent, having scored 7 goals + 2 assists for Cremonese in Serie A last season. What are the chances we could snag him?
