The hits keep coming from my state... Confederate flag protest moves to public park after school closes AUBURN, MI -- For the third straight day, some Bay City Western High School students and some adults gathered to publicly wave Confederate flags, as the controversy that has sparked racial tension in the small town of Auburn receives national attention. This time, the demonstration took place in Auburn City Park off US-10. Bay City Western High School, where the protests have taken place the past two days, was closed Thursday, April 19, due to rumors people were coming to the high school to confront other students. Bay City Western Middle School, which is connected to the high school, was also closed. Several pickup trucks flying the Confederate flag were arranged in a semicircle at the public park on Thursday. Those in attendance were holding a cookout. The students and their parents expressed hostility to MLive reporters at the scene, saying they've been painted as racist. Student Cameron Myers, insisting he's not racist, reiterated he and his friends are flying the flag as "a country thing." He did not define what "a country thing" meant. Myers said he and his friends began flying the flags this week in response to a previous flag of his being removed from his truck while parked on school property by a black female classmate. "We're flying the flag because of injustice," Myers said. He declined to specify why he was motivated to have initially flown the flag from his truck the prior week. "It looks cool in the mirror," he said. His friends argued the flag is "part of American history." In a Snapchat video taken by a Western student acquired by MLive, footage depicts at least three males in a vehicle recording the flags' demonstration. At one point, one of the males can be heard swearing and using a racial slur as text appears on screen stating "Fly em high boys."

^ disgusting pictures thread please

That cg was shit. And the creature design is wrong. The head was terrible. The show is fine, but they completely changed Lady Silence. I suppose they had to, due to being 10 episodes. Too many characters, not enough time... She's much more ominous/mystical in the book. It's Dan Simmons, I get it...this is one of those cases where the book is better. (so far) Spoiler about the bear

The Tuunbaq design blew. come on amc.

By Prog standards, no where near the best. They use wonky time signatures, and are good musicians on the other hand. Carey being my favorite from the group.(Not really going on a limb with that one.) When Tool finds a groove in a track, that groove tends to be strong. There's a ton of bands more complex in theory, musicianship & song structure.

Trump is holding a rally in a Washington Twp.. It's a rather affluent area near where I live in the good old burbs of Detroit. I'm curious as to the turnout for this event. I would contend he still has broad support in Macomb County to this day. If the turnout is strong, I will be in fear for 2020. (minus all his legal troubles/hookers pissing on one another mind you)

I keep forgetting this fucker gets a library, what an absurd monstrosity that will be. Only stocked with Art of the deal.

This is where the novel succeeds. There are several other characters that have more prominent roles, but have barely been touched. They're kinda hamstrung with a 10 part series. You just can't touch on many other characters. They're focusing on the main ones at this point. In the novel, things take quite a bit more time & yes, are more arduous. I agree with the open ice environments, especially at night. Definitely has the production stage feel. I'll give props to the use of northern lights though. I also liked the look of the sun just skimming the horizon in one scene. Such foreboding. I'm hoping they give better treatment to "the bear",I was expecting more from it at this point... hopefully when it storms the ship.

Finally got around to watching The Force Awakens. It should have never been woke.

I cannot argue this. But, even in it's wtf-ness, I'm fully in. I got faith in Mr. Hawley that he will tie it up in an understandable narrative. The production elements are ace, love the soundtrack & sound design. This show blends so many different genre elements, I can't help but be entertained by the confusion. lol yes. I'd love for F/X to see it through. As I stated above, I hope Hawley ties things together and not just have us fall further into this rabbit hole of narrative madness.
-
Glover has stated he wanted to make this show like a version of Twin Peaks in the hood. So, he's succeeding I guess... And as everyone stated, last episode was ace.
-
And I loved it. Sadly, I think Noah wants this show canceled though.

Is this alden guy even near 6 ft tall? You failed star wars.

Actually for Dan Simmons, I rather liked it. Overstuffed yes, but held my interest. As I stated, the show runners already changed things. Curious to see how that plays out. Things will start picking up come the third episode. They already burned through a ton of the book by the end of episode 2.

Danny is so depressed about his drum altar spontaneously combusting that he doesn't have it in him to further record any of the new album. sad.

Danny’s drum altar burst into flames the other night after he finished tracking one of the tunes for the new TOOL ALBUM. This occurred while he was listening to the playback and contemplating if this should be the KEEPER TRACK or if he should try one more take. After smelling acrid fumes coming from the adjoining room, he rushed to check it out and realized that his drum altar was ablaze. The small fire was quickly extinguished, but not before the Egyptian tutelary deity HORUS suffered minor damage. The falcon-headed one was carefully transported to the ER where it was administered doses of super glue and later released. Afterwards it was decided that the track in question would be a keeper. I’m also happy to report that Horus (with the good ear!) is now back on the altar where he continues to provide “as only he can.” (to quote Danny.)

I'm hopeful, but I was disappointed with some of the changes they have made so far. Liked the novel better in that regard. The major change is the inuit woman cannot speak in the book, it gives her a far more ominous tone in the novel in how she is treated on the page. Seems like they're scraping that sadly. By the cold open, looks like their gonna scrap the ending of the novel as well. But, the production, score & acting are all solid so far.
