I just finished watching all the seasons of Tim & Eric: Awesome Show, Great Job. Goddamn hilarious. And I've started watching Sons Of Anarchy. Reminds me alot of The Sopranos, just with bikers of course. it's quite entertaining.

Since the old thread got too long and took ages to load, we continue forth (think of it as a sequel, to use a movie metaphor).

I'm (still!) currently reading Thomas Pynchon's Against the Day but took a break in between to read Don DeLillo's Great Jones Street and Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto, the first gothic horror novel. Anyone reading anything cool at the moment? Don't even say it's the fuckin' Kite Runner

Let's keep topics about the new forum limited to this thread - if it becomes a big thing, we could consider a subforum, or start up a bug tracking database (although there really shouldn't be any bugs per se)...

So I am considering (and have been for some time) of making the site subscription-only where unless you pay for a subscription, you will only see a limited amount of content (aka a paywall). I wish it could be free for everyone, but costs have (and continue) to go up over the years, now costing 100 USD per month to run this forum (thankfully the costs of the forum software is part of that). For a long time now (since 2013) all new members have been required to have a subscription, but an old loophole in the forum software allowed paying members whose subscriptions lapsed to continue to access the site. I am considering turning this off so if you are not a p…

Salvatorin died in his sleep this morning. Chatmm and beak are both reeling. He was posting in chatmm this morning when I got out of work. Unreal, so upsetting. Such a good dude. No idea what else to say.

Hello, WATMM forum. We don’t really know each other very well, but we have a common friend, known online as MIXL2 (although he changed his username here at some point to @YangYing). I’m here to let you know that MIXL2, or Miguel as I knew him, passed away on the 24th of April, and his funeral was held about a week ago. I figured you all should know, since Miguel was a long-time member and frequent poster on this forum - having joined a few years after I first got to know him in middle school. He always used to tell me about the shenanigans people on here were up to, shared many threads he found interesting, and even made me sign up (even though I'm not much for forum…

https://flipboard.com/@flipboard/-putin-leader-in-artificial-intelligence/f-afd8014cbe%2Fapnewsarchive.com The thought of a AI arms race is terrifying, and if people like putin think controlling AI will make you ruler of the world there is no way we survive the century UN needs to get involve in this, make AI research neutral, force all the nations to work together.

So this is going into production, despite relatively poor results of Blade Runner 2049 at the Box Office, which was critical for Villeneuve's version of Dune to happen. The casting so far is insane: Rebecca Ferguson, Dave Bautista, Javier Bardem, Thimothée Chalamet, Josh Brolin, Oscar Isaac, Charlotte Rampling, Jason Momoa... Unfortunately, Roger Deakins is not part of the projet this time, but the cinematography will be handled by Greg Fraser (Rogue One). Not sure Jodorowsky will have anything to do for the movie, but news are falling nearly every day since a few weeks. Scheduled for november 20th, 2020

I'm bored, so let's do a Lego thread. I'm sure most of us had at least one set as a kid, some have grown to love them as adults, as the licensing has become more inclusive. We now have Lego Friends aka Legos for girls, there's DUPLO - for very young children, Technic for teens / college age kids, Mindstorms - the robotic builders line, even an architectural line I've bought as gifts for people, that also include NASA Space Vehicles. Who is a fan, what are your favorites, do you remember building them as a kid, and how limited our block selection was? lol. My friend Nick (RIP) had so many moon base floor tiles, he could cover his entire bedroom floor for sleepovers…

seriously fuck that platform and this fucking douchebag. i'm glad i pulled all my stuff from these shitty streaming services. couldn't find the apropriate thread to bump so i started a new one. i hate the idea of "content creators" for explotative services like spotify that just want to please their stock holders. gives me rage vibes. lazy passive listeners who pay pennies a month even though their phones have plenty of room for quality copies of their favorite 30 or 50 albums. wHo hAs ThE tImE tO SeT uP tHeiR pHoNe fOr ThAt??? /rant https://www.thefader.com/2020/07/30/spotify-ceo-daniel-ek-says-working-musicians-can-no-longer-release-music-only-once…

I should have named this thread "clothing style" because it connotates more closely what I have an enthusiasm for. I wanted to make a thread where I could post this picture: (Jylle Navarro)
