Not episodes, movies.
The Acolyte is a series made of eight episodes. From culture to language, from history to politics, you literally have no idea what you’re talking about.

For the exact same reasons pretty much everyone had that hated it. I think that is now the 8th Disney flop this year so far.
Can you be specific? What did you dislike about the eight episodes that you definitely watched?
You did watch it, right?
And as a matter of fact:
Cool, let’s read this article.
Deadline projects Reagan will finish the four-day Labor Day weekend with $9 million in domestic ticket sales for a No. 4 finish…In addition, Deadline projects that Alien: Romulus will earn 11.7 million over Labor Day weekend for a No. 2 finish in the domestic top five
So, this is another of your sources that says Alien Romulus is doing better in sales than Reagan. And, as a capitalist who believes that the market dictates quality, this means that Alien Romulus is better than Reagan. So it didn’t blow Alien Romulus out of the water, as you claimed.
I stand corrected again as usual.
Yes, I agree. By the way, “I stand corrected” means “I was wrong, and you were right”, so thank you for admitting your mistake here, and for recognizing that you are usually wrong.

Where did he mention opening weekend comparisons?
He said Reagan “blew Alien Romulus out of the water” and offered a link comparing their box office opening weekends as proof. Except his evidence said the opposite of what he thought it did, because he didn’t read it, because he never does.

Or it was deliberate by some psychopath…guess who would have done that
Unlikely. Drugs are expensive, and they make a lot of money when sold. Likely a dealer left them around the house on the table or something, to distribute to customers later, and their partner or roommate confused them for real candies and have them to the food bank.

Tell us, if all the XY male etc...has no bearing then why are there no XX competing at the top levels in the men's categories?
Ball is in your court!
As has been mentioned, a trans man competed in the men’s category in boxing in the Olympics his year.
Ball is in your goal. 1-0.

Because all the rest are transgender men AKA women that identify as male, so why wasn't this pointed out? Because they are all competing in the women's category of their respective sports and not in the men's as they claim to identify as.
Source? I’m happy to wait.

It’s never an issue the other way is it? Trans “men” never want to fight real men or compete against them. But it’s verboten to mention THAT.
This is just untrue. Mack Beggs was a teenage wrestler who wanted to wrestle with the boys. But Texas rules meant he had to wrestle with girls, even though he didn’t want to, they didn’t want him to wrestle with them (because they respect his identity) and the parents didn’t either.
More pertinent perhaps, though, is that THIS YEAR there was a trans man boxer in the Olympics, Hergie Bacyadan.
”It’s verboten to mention that” = you haven’t bothered to do even the most cursory of research.

The DNA came back XY not XX not even XYY or YYX.
Source? The IBA said that their “gender tests” are undisclosed.
Additionally, Khelif competed in the 2020 Olympics and the 2022 world championships without trouble - and was eliminated by fellow women both times.
She is a woman. This is not up for debate. All of a sudden, the “it’s easy to tell man and woman, just look at their genitals” crowd are becoming armchair geneticists. We’re not buying it.
I saw the fight. The Italian boxer was jabbed twice, that’s it. I’m not sure why people are suddenly clutching their pearls that boxing, a sport about punching people, involves people getting punched.

We are all different. I remember when I was about 20 I asked him how would he feel if I told him I was gay, he said flat out, he would disown me. We were very close, but me being gay was something he just could not and would not accept.
Wow, sounds like your dad was very intolerant. Sorry to hear that.

He did, he just didn't take the left bait.
Detailing your policies is not “bait”.
He does, he is the President NOT a dictator or do you want that? He should bypass Congress?
Trump has already said that he will be a dictator and regularly bypassed congress as president, and has promised to do it again.
You mean, be like Joe and tell your enemy what you won't do? No wonder our enemies want Democrat Presidents.
This just isn’t true.
Then if that is true, Trump would be lagging behind Biden in the polls.
Even your beloved Fox News was freaking out because Trump was behind Biden in their poll. But it’ll probably get closer after Biden’s weak performance today.

He answered the best he could
He didn’t answer at all. But I agree that “nothing” is Trump’s best.
first he needs to get his cabinet into place before he can tell you what his plans are exactly
No he doesn’t.
so at this point he doesn't need to prematurely give his hand on how he will deal with it
He does.
Well, he didn't and that is fine because he wasn't going to touch that issue.
Because he knows it’s toxic to voters. Which is why Biden should have hammered him on it, but he didn’t. Big missed opportunity for Biden.
I think Trump is a great choice.
More proof, if more were needed, that he’s a terrible choice.

Really bad performance from Biden. Trump barely answered any questions (he never even touched “how would you implement your giant deportation plan”, for example) and instead of pointing that out with like, “as you can see Jake, he didn’t answer your question, because he can’t”, he just replayed “malarkey” and repeated it in varying forms. Or he could have pointed out that Trump was praising himself for “sending abortion laws to the states”, but then whining that states aren’t doing what he wants, so he wants to enact federal laws (not to mention the lies of “they kill babies after birth”, which is just so egregious that it beggars belief), but he just let Trump ramble and responded only to the most surface level things.
Awful choices for the country.
