Reacher Season 2 is such a gigantic letdown - WHAT HAPPENED?

I'm not even really interested in discussing "whether" it was bad because I don't know how anyone could think otherwise. Disclosure: I really enjoyed Season 1. Each episode was a nice setup for another piece of the puzzle and Ritchson really embodies this character (literally). I didn't love the finale, but I was fine with continuing.

Season 2 is a dumpster fire. It's like every episode the writers find new ways to be idiots. The character and this world are ruined now as far as I'm concerned.

My favorite part is how they continually repeat trite isms like "In an investigation, details matter" like actual twelve-year-olds writing a school essay, and meanwhile the fight choreography and plot logic is some of the worst on TV. I just got to the fight on the bus. One of the dumbest things I've ever seen.

Reacher would be shot dead by now like 50 times, and the villains are idiots too. Neely is insufferable, like literally every line was written by a smug 50-year-old dude trying to get street cred with Nintendo kids. The show literally will not stop repeating that she's a "genius" for noticing the simplest friggin' things.

It's beyond mind-numbing and robs Reacher himself of all depth and believability. My favorite part so far is when he "deduces" that a guy wasn't lying because he was a fire fighter and "those guys have honor" or something like that. Actually wtf.

The ONLY decent character is Detective Russo. Even if the writing staff was the same, this could have been ten times better if you got rid of the team of smug twelve-year-old adults and just had Reacher and Russo running around this whole time.

Even if Season 3-4 are better, I may not even care. The drop-off from S1 to S2 is THAT huge. All I really want to know is if someone has an autopsy report for me. What happened? What writer/showrunner is making this like, bottom of the barrel action slop for geezers? This is like the quality of the movies my Grandpa gets from Redbox after picking up his prescription, only this takes 8 hours to finish and it used to be something good.

Please don't tell me CTGP 7 has no way to enable 3D in online mode

I was so excited to finally sit down and play this. There MUST be a way to turn 3D on, no? I'm hoping because that would be so brutal if not. Why on earth would I play the Mario Kart built for 3D in 2D?

Is there any hope of finally fixing Nuclear Throne on Vita?

This is an amazing community, and as much as I enjoy the effort put to random ports, I'm always wondering if there's any ongoing effort in getting Nuclear Throne to work properly, with skins and crowns debugged and stable framerate if possible. I know there was a homebrewer some time ago working on it.

This was always one of the worst oversights in the official Vita catalog because the game just screams Vita and it's such a shame we never got this game for real.

I'm a new investor, and I'm struggling with risk tolerance in these Space Stocks

So I thought the lead-up to SpaceX IPO was a great time to research some stock names and put some money in for the first time (I usually just do MFs). My gambles on space sector names were all green (+25%) for 2 weeks and then they all slid. I'm now down (-25%) on everything, and I'm really upset that I bought on a run and didn't trim any of my profits or sell high-risk rises completely.

My picks were like, MNTS, RDW, SIDU, etc., and they're all down 30-50% from when I bought in. I'm $15.5 average on MNTS for example. I'm not sure what to do now, and I'm just upset at myself, especially since now's a good time to buy into dips, and I'm just praying for green.

any advice on how to process this, if not what to "do about it?" Probably been asked a million times, but I'd just appreciate some personalized advice; I'm kind of struggling with this.

Has anyone tried the Wise-Anderson Home Program?

When I heard about the home program, I was so excited, but it still costs thousands of dollars and is the only way to get the wand, other than the in-person clinic. Has anyone tried it? Do you think it was worth it?

I'm aware everyone's situation is different. I'm just not rich. My former pelvic PT wishes the cost was lower so it could be more of a "try and see if it works thing," but it's not.

Any insight would be great. I've been stuck with issues for 8+ years after doing kegs, which turned me from feeling fine into this, though I guess there were underlying issues I didn't know about.
