Number three feels so good. Partially cause my kids sat and bopped along during dinner.

I’m sorry what’s happened in the footballs today?

I expected some replies to the contrary and believe me, I am aware that no one leaves that office without blood on their hands. But I think his life as a whole towers above any modern American President. He spent the rest of his life repenting, possibly, for being President

Jimmy Carter was the first President I can recall being aware of and probably the only President in my lifetime who, upon death, will be remembered as a fundamentally decent person

There’s a spot north of the entrance that a lot of Uber/limo folks hang out from time to time. Not as close as the old cell phone one used to be on domestic. Also, often those cargo buildings north of the terminal will have open spaces. There’s also a tiny lot next to the fire station on that side

I told my wife that was the part I didn’t need in Nosferatu and she was very happy to let me know that’s how I sound every time I drink any of “my liquids”. Life is pain.

Guess I have a new favorite player since I’m pretty sure the Wazzu QB is wearing In-N-Out socks.

Ok, see, this is 100% a very valid opinion. Because I’m pretty certain that what I didn’t like about it wasn’t “Wicked”. I absolutely cannot say it isn’t good. Very good, in fact. I’m just not sure I liked it, all the way, somehow.

Jacob Austin @jbaustin9.bsky.social · 27/12/2024
So I just walked out of Wicked and… there’s so much of that I really, really, really enjoyed. I’m not convinced I liked it, yet?

Sitting in a theater waiting to see a movie that I’m sure I will like well enough on the whole but I’m pretty certain it will be so visually revolting to me I walk away just disappointed.

A thrill of hope The weary world rejoices For yonder breaks A new and glorious morning Truly He taught us to love one another His law is love, and His gospel is peace Chains He shall break, for the slave is our brother And in His name, all oppression shall cease

Top three Christmas tradition in our house: watching Home Alone (my wife’s favorite movie of all time) on the VHS she got 30 years ago.

I once made prop air oxygen masks out of party city supplies. That PFT post hit home.

He took the title from the sign and the cover kinda mimics it as well, but he’s an Atlanta native who set it in generic Pennsylvania.

Jacob Austin @jbaustin9.bsky.social · 14/12/2024
Most tuned in to a Hawks game I’ve been in 2.5 seasons. So yes my expectations are very low. Luckily the whole first quarter didn’t go the way the first few minutes did.

The utter woke nonsense meme. Do not tell me "that is a soccer guy who blahblahblah." None of my business. It's a meme

Could write essays on what a wonder this movie is to me and how it makes me feel. Might watch again tomorrow night to process more of that.

Hey good news turns out this movie is still right around a 14 out of 10.

An MLS where Red Bull has an MLS Cup is a less fun MLS, so I’m fine with what happened in the soccer today.

Jacob Austin @jbaustin9.bsky.social · 06/12/2024
Just booked my ticket to see it, a movie that has made me cry every time I’ve watched it that I saw multiple times in theaters and own the steel book of and tear up playing the vinyl of, for the first time since I had kids. Ready to be ripped absolutely to shreds.

Jacob Austin @jbaustin9.bsky.social · 06/12/2024
Movie is a bit lax at points, can see the seams of a bit of carelessness at others, but there’s a flooded colosseum naval battle scene and Denzel put on those dresses and rings and went crazy so yeah it rocks.

31 minutes and we’ve made it through trailers so now it’s time to drop a couple more commercials for the theatre chain I’m already sitting in.

Jacob Austin @jbaustin9.bsky.social · 06/12/2024
12 minutes past advertised start time and still getting commercials. Not trailers. Commercials.

Just sat down in the theatre for Gladiator and it’s going to take so so so so so many bad decisions to convince me I don’t enjoy this movie.

I don’t understand the purpose of the NBA Cup but the Hawks are sort of good at it so I’ve actually been a lifelong fan of the tournament and we deserve that Cup

Thanksgiving is one of the few days we let our kids watch stuff, especially for an extended time. My wife makes French toast and we just hang. It’s a great way to start the day.

How did Dr. Squatch raise their marketing budget that much and their commercials still be that annoying and bad?

Jacob Austin @jbaustin9.bsky.social · 26/11/2024
I made the decision a couple weeks ago that I can’t go see the imax re-release with friends because it’s a movie that has made me cry every time I’ve watched it and it’s going to be the first time I watch it since having kids and I don’t want to subject them to my uncontrollable sobbing.

Going fully suburban dad: Costco customer service rocks. Mine has had the regal ticket/gift card packs for months and I’ve patiently waited to see if they would go on sale before movie/award season. Finally bought them last week. They went on sale this weekend. They refunded me the difference.

To be clear, I mean the Ocean’s clip. Not the corporate video. Best movie of all time. Straight high octane gas from moment one. And on top of all the awesome it is, it’s insanely beautiful.

Jacob Austin @jbaustin9.bsky.social · 25/11/2024
I edited one (1) Ocean’s Eleven clip into some corporate video that means nothing to me tonight and it got me so fired up I opened a writing project I haven’t touched in weeks.

Do I expect Atlanta United to win this game? Little bit. Is it a little hard to get the vibe of how it’s going via the radio call? Little bit. Do both of those feel like problems for my emotional investment? Very much.
