It so damn good. Fun sitcom with a slight edge. The last episode of this season once you realise what it’s building to and then the realisation the one character has is very effective

As first observed by Mike Myzak, Gheesling’s average viewership has dropped precipitously in the past month, falling by a whopping 71.5%, from 1,079 concurrent viewers in September to just 308 in October, according to third-party analytics site Twitch Tracker. While Gheesling did take some time off following the controversy in September, he’s been consistent in October, streaming several hours per day for most of this month. Where Gheesling used to regularly play multiplayer games with Letourneau and a rotating cast of friends (in addition to streaming on his own), he’s since been cut loose from that crew. One can infer, then, that the viewership drop is a direct result of Gheesling’s decision to stream with the US Army.

Why aren't gas prices dropping if oil is flowing through the Strait? The answer: "For a sign of just how extraordinary oil shipping costs have become, consider this: It’s now more expensive to hire a tanker from the US to China than to launch a rocket into space." www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Hiring US-to-China Oil Tanker Costs More Than Launching a Space Rocket
For a sign of just how extraordinary oil shipping costs have become, consider this: It’s now more expensive to hire a tanker from the US to China than to launch a rocket into space.

“We’re making the right decisions to reinvest in the business, after an all-time low, we’ve started to return to growth, more than 2 to 3 times what we were" People realize this is a nothing statement that says nothing, right? Right?

Within the context of the show & story they told I get why it unfolded like this and what happened. It works for this story & was a damn good show overall. But, I wanted to see Hal being the greatest GL in the history of the corps. I wanted some of that comic book mythology to come the DCU

Finally finished Ace Combat 7, fell off due to a stupid escort mission I failed. Powered through until i thought I’d quit due to a stupid precision flying section at the end of the last mission. Luckily I was able to figure it out. Good game held back from excellent by these two sections.
