A24 did "Dicks: The Musical" last year which was one of the funniest, most profane, things I ever watched...

Regal just closed the 13 screen theater closest to me, not sure what's going to happen to it now. :(

But given my last experience there was bad enough that I walked out and went somewhere else after waiting 15 minutes in a non-moving ticket line that they insisted on running through their concession counter... Yeah, nothing of value was lost.

$25 million doesn't seem like enough, is it?

Removed as a questionable source. It's LIKELY true, but we need a better source.

LOL - seems legit...

Never did. I think we were still waiting for his dad to give him "the talk".

They've both passed now. :(

No, my version is retributive.

"Oh, Trump won? Fuck it, Hunter gets a pardon."

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago

Biden allowed the prosecution of Hunter to avoid the appearance of not being neutral.

Now that Trump has won and a) is openly talking about pardoning anyone and everyone and b) wanting to prosecute his enemies list, it 100% makes sense to beat him to the punch and pardon Hunter.

If Kamala had won, he would have let it all stand.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

If Kamala had won, Hunter would not have been pardoned.

Biden pardoned him because of all the bullshit pardons Trump is talking about.

"You know what, fine, fuck it, Hunter gets a pardon."

 "It insults the intelligence of the American people to compare misdemeanor tax charges to a scheme to steal Top Secret documents and obstruct justice when the government asked for them back," he tweeted, comparing the charges against Hunter Biden to the recent federal indictment against former President Donald Trump. "If anything, Hunter Biden was treated harshly — those crimes are rarely charged."

Not even a "New and Improved"? That's shitty marketing...

Trying out this new cocoa powder. It has 4x the fat compared to Hershey's. 2g per tablespoon compared to 0.5g.

Trying it in my favorite application:

Chocolate Orange Chocolate Chip Cheesecake

  1. Float 2 pounds of cream cheese in warm water for 15 minutes.

  1. Mix with 1 1/2 cups of sugar until smooth.

  1. Add 3/4 cup cocoa, 2 tablespoons vanilla, 2 teaspoons orange extract, 1/4 cup Grand Marnier, and 5 eggs. Mix until smooth.

  1. Add an ENTIRE BAG of MINIATURE chocolate chips. IMPORTANT - full size chips won't melt all the way and leaves a weird texture.

  1. Take a 9" springform pan, spray it with cooking spray, and coat the inside with another 1/4 cup of cocoa powder.

Pour the batter in the pan and bake at 200° F for EIGHT DAMN HOURS.

  1. Cool to room temp, 2+ hours.

  2. Flip upside down onto a plate, remove the pan and refrigerate as long as you can stand it. ;) Colder the better.

  3. Flip right side up onto another plate, garnish with candied orange slices, and serve.

Well, that's the end, guys!

The two federal cases are being shut down, Jack Smith is retiring, and there's no way the Georgia case goes forward if a literal conviction is paused.

America was nice while it lasted!

There is an island in the North Atlantic...

I've been following this story since I was a kid, so are the two brothers out digging for treasure.

Story goes, in 1795, some kids saw a mysterious light on a nearby island in Nova Scotia. They took a boat out and found a pulley hanging from a tree branch over an odd depression in the ground.

Like any ingenous kids, they went "Yay! Pirate treasure!" and started digging.

10 feet down, they hit a floor of oak logs. They pulled those out and kept digging. They found another floor every 10 feet until they hit 90 feet, which had a mysterious carved stone on it.

After that, their hole flooded and people have been digging for treasure ever since. To a point where the island has been so thoroughly dug up, the location of the original "money pit" has been lost for decades.

The History Channel show has been trying for 12 seasons now. Lots of myths and legends about it.

The mysterious "90 foot stone" has been lost, no rubbings or photographs were made. A transcription and translation popped up, but it doesn't seem to be older than the 1940s.

In the 1960s, several people died during the excavation, the show is fond of repeating the "curse" that 6 people have died, and a 7th must die before the treasure can be recovered. There is no reference to that curse prior to the 1960s or 1970s.
