Saw the trailer for this a few weeks back and started to cry, but haven't been in the mindset yet to sit down and watch it since it came out.

As an educator who worked with technology, this story is all too familiar. We had a student who used an Eye Gaze device to communicate. His various disabilities left him with the inability to control any of his bodily functions, but he could use his eyes. He ended up living until about 22, but mentally he never moved beyond the toddler stage. He was able to learn how to use the Eye Gaze device to communicate basic needs and wants and he would have been a great "greeter" at a place like Walmart.

His parents refused to let him use the Eve Gaze device at home. He would essentially sit/lay there all summer without the ability to communicate. Infuriating.

His parents deserve the death penalty.

Please comment.


That franchise is a lot like the Flyers.

It got to a certain point where it became irredeemable and nothing like what I was originally drawn to, so I leapt off the bandwagon.

I haven’t watched the last few and I can’t imagine watching the next one. It’s too late to come back to what made the movies good. You can’t come back to reality after turning it into The Avengers in cars.

In other words, fire Torts.

Awesome! Enjoy every minute with your bro!

My ex gf from way back used to live in Corvallis...never got to visit her family but hoping to visit Oregon next year with my current gf. Her daughter graduates from Read College in Portland. Oregon is a beautiful state from what I'm told.

You might decide to stay, the PNW is amazing.

Wife ordered a new phone from Best Buy and it was (supposed to be) shipped by FedEx. Box arrives and it only has the sim card in it, phone and ear buds are missing. After opening the box we realized that the package was most likely tampered with (clear tape over the security tape) and the box was lighter than the stated weight on the shipping lable.

We started a refund process with Best Buy and a claim with FedEx, but I'm assuming they're each going to blame the other. Anyone go through this before and have any advice?

@JojoTheWhale the YouTube algo did it again with that Japanese Udon Soba channel. It looks so tasty and I'm too lazy to get up and get food.
I’ll trade algos with you. My Youtube Shorts page keeps showing me Indian music videos with like 3 views that have deep fried audio and random bullshit visuals.

I’m a patient boy but I’m about to lose it.
