    Same!  I hardly got any sleep this past week checking so many different outlets regarding this election.  Joe Biden wasn't my preferred candidate, but, I needed Trump out.

    I felt a HUGE sense of relief when it was announced, and then was overwhelmed with joy with the enormity of history that was made with Kamala.  It's been interesting to watch her ascent as she was my congresswoman years ago, and I remember when she was AG thinking she probably had potential to make it on the national stage.

    What a ride.

    Now, we just have to wait a couple more months, but I do worry about what he'll do once he comes to terms with the fact that he did indeed lose.  My fear is that he won't be a lame duck president and will do some more detrimental things on his way out.

    Oh he wont go out gracefully.  There is more embarrassment and idiocy to come.  And the fact that after everything he has said and done in 4 years 70 million people still voted for him they aren't going away.  Those people said yeah I'm ok with some racism and incompetence, I will have 4 more years of that please.

    He will likely issue out some pardons, sell some state secrets to get some of that debt he has coming due written off

  2. Don't know why  I thought of this thread today.  But, it shows how 4 years ago a little microcosm of us talking about how crazy it was to be living in a time where people actually voted for that Orange clown.

    Fast forward to today where we officially evicted him.  A lot of us have moved on, the boards a lot quieter but here we are finally.  Hope everyone whos still around is thriving and being safe in the pandemic .

    or have you gone completely digital? I’m having to move house again and just had a massive CD purge to cut down on stuff to pack. I still have so many that just hold memories though, like my Janet ones that I bought the day they were released and so on.

    I did a massive purge a couple years ago.  I had the jewel cases in nice stands but it didn't make sense anymore.  Dusting them and keeping it all clean and just taking up space in the digital age.  I tossed them all.

    I still have a few cds in the binder things that don't take up any space but the only player I own still is in my car, or my computer.

    Ehhhh it’s just an EP!!! I want more!!! ThrowItBack tho......she can uncharacteristically keep it! 😐 “WTF” and “I’m Better” were more explosive, fun and honorable for an artist such as herself!!! The music video as usual is a visual masterpiece (outside Teyana Taylor and that little girl’s hilariously bad acting!) 😳😱🤢🤮

    I'm still mad that it is only an EP!  She got credit for the hottest performance of the night at the VMAs.  She has good momentum going and good will for a major comeback album.  She shoulda went for it

    Yeah, that sounds about right..but she ATE that performance.  Hands down my favorite of the night.

    Normani was good..she's a good performer..but it wasn't a wow performance..and I still can't get into the song. I am interested in her new album though.

    I went and looked at clips of Lizzo playing her flute and was amazed.  She is really talented. 

    100% agree.  For the moment in time the hype and position shes in now she needed to do nothing less than dominate the night and take complete advantage of this moment.  It was good but I don't feel like it was the iconic performance she needed it to be to break out once and for all.

    Just going through some of the performances on YouTube it seems they really upped the stage production value?  But, I am noticing a significant amount of lip syncing.  And some people that needed lip syncing, Shawn Mendes was struggling on some of them notes in Senorita

    Yeah that was completely unnecessary.  It wasn't even funny or cheesy bad acting.  Still releasing during Slayer Swifts week is questionable.

    Any of y’all watch Mindhunter?

    Its really good.  I like Anna Torv and Jonathan Groff.  The acting is great.  They do such a good job with the serial killer interviews.  I was watching side by side of the acting vs the actual killer interviews from news footage.

    It's creepy how close they are even makeup etc.  Some of the black serial killers I hadn't even known about really

  9. Whew just finished Handmaids tale.  The last episode was pretty good.  But, they literally cannot have more than 1 more season.  To go any longer they have to dramatically broaden the scope of the show.  Invasion of Gilead by the rest of the world or something.  Its the only way they can possibly scrape more than 1 more season without being redundant.

     

    The acting is great, the direction, cinematography etc.  But they are pushing it with straining believability with lucky escapes and huge coincidences for storytelling.

     

    I'm ready for Mindhunter season 2 and Elite Season 2

  12. "Iconic rapper Missy “Misdemeanor” Elliott will be honored with the 2019 Michael Jackson Video Vanguard award at this year’s annual MTV Video Music Awards on August 26. The four-time Grammy winner will be the first female rapper with receive the award and the fourth rap artist to be honored, following LL Cool J (1997), the Beastie Boys (1998), and Kanye West (2015).

    Elliott’s music videos, which could feature anything from her sporting a voluminous, trash bag-esque ensemble to breakdancing children, are often held up as watershed moments in pop culture, hailed for their innovation when it came to concept, fashion and aesthetics. Legendary music video directors Hype Williams and Dave Meyers were frequent collaborators, but it was Elliott’s confident, funny and dynamic spirit, so evident to her fans, that were present in the visuals as much as her songs."

     

    "Elliott took to her Twitter following the announcement on Monday that she would be receiving the award, thanking her fans for their support throughout the years."

    It’s been an auspicious year for recognition for Elliott; this June, she made history when she became the first female rapper to be inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Elliott’s performance at the 2019 VMAs will be her first since 2003.

    Thank God!!! And i'ma have to read up on Wanda cause I didn't know she ended up having twins or what their powers are.

    ydcrkfqk8jgn6fvd9jgq.jpg

    Her son Wiccan is super gay powerful sorcerer.  And his twin brother has his uncle Quicksilvers powers basically super speed.

    Both part of Young Avengers.  And since Hawkeye is training Kate who is also a Young Avenger.  And Antman's daughter is supposed to be Stature in Young Avengers.

    Why tf is Doctor Strange taking so long? I think Hawkeye is gonna flop. He's never been an interesting character so idk why they gave him his own movie when he doesn't have a following. :sigh: 

    Hawkeye isn't a movie.  Loki, WandaVision, Hawkeye, Falcon and Winter Soldier are all the Disney+ Tv shows.  Hawkeye is him training Kate Bishop.  WandaVision supposedly leads right into Dr. Strange 2 where she stars with him.  Loki picks up right where Loki took the tesseract when they went in the past in Endgame.

    They also announced Black Panther 2, Captain Marvel 2, and that there will be  Fantastic 4 movie.

    Dr. Strange seems like a good place to get mutants in if they are dealing with the multiverse.

    Shang Chi should be good if they get some great martial arts people.  There's no reason with Disney backing it shouldn't have the best Hong Kong straight up martial arts movie people.

    I don't care about WandaVision unless they go ahead and make her have the twins.

    June is consistently facing some crazy shit, but she's always finding new allies too

    I thought the last episode was pretty powerful.  It was pretty cerebral in  it made you think if you were surrounded by this horror and torture how far would it push you?  Would it make you also horrible and take you to dark places?  That was her hitting rock bottom she was spiraling and getting further and further into Dark June territory.  I don't blame her for wanting to cut Serena.  That bitch deserves it.

    She has superhuman luck with people that will tolerate her though.  Other people have been maimed, tongues cut out, eyes etc for less than she has done.  She find a sympathetic doctor who doesn't turn her in and just talks her off the ledge.  Convenient storytelling but it is what it is.

    Anyway now I'm watching the revival of Veronica Mars on Hulu.  Season 4 after all these years.  I loved that show
