    The Wire’s (Baltimore) Hamsterdam in Real Life 2021

    Exactly - it’s like a literal cloud was hanging over me the whole time. One of the first most depressing frustrating work experiences. The white female lawyers didn’t do half the work I did- all they did was walk around in short skirts and make wedding plans. Ohhhh and I left out- like a month...

    The Wire’s (Baltimore) Hamsterdam in Real Life 2021

    Because I wouldn’t relocate down to Princeton, New Jersey to work within the commuting “distance” of Purdue Pharma as a part of the job requirement. Which I didn’t know working in BigPharma were my job duties from the beginning. Even though the hiring recruiter knew I was coming from New York...

    Fat Joe and Fetty WAP talk about legal troubles, daughter’s passing, rap hiatus

    All facts. Looking at those fed numbers is his sobering moment. Dude was really reckless- having like 6 kids back to back, letting people get in his pocket, “after the laughter, comes the tears” and what your grandmother said “pride comes after the fall” two of the simplest yet most profound...

    The Wire’s (Baltimore) Hamsterdam in Real Life 2021

    @Jay This reminds me of the time that I was offered a job to work in the legal division of Purdue Pharma. The firm where I worked was going to outsource me to Purdue Pharma to work onsite but I would still be employed at the firm. At the time I was living closer to Delaware than I was in New...

    Exactly. Low income black people who are involved in drugs- their benefits are removed, no subsidized housing, renovation of financial assistance and the list goes on. Whites - they basically will be issued a check for being deemed as “mentally ill”, at funded medical rehab, job placement...

    The Definitive Horror Movie and Series Thread

    Be warned. Hellbound is graphic and brutal violence but not gore for the sake of gore. If you watch all six episodes, you will see that the shock value of certain scenes serves a purpose. I think that I actually liked HellBound more than Squid Games. Squid Games- idk everyone seemed like the...

    Looking forward to it, immensely. I want my OG team back like Sydney, Gail, Dewey bc that’s who I grew up watching so I’m hoping they keep the same energy with this latest. Been waiting for it to drop for a long time. I hope they just keep it straight up horror and not add all of the agendas...

    Fat Joe and Fetty WAP talk about legal troubles, daughter’s passing, rap hiatus

    I’m not a fan of Fat Joe or Fetty but I must say this was an engaging interview. Discussion points: - Fetty had 10 mill in album sales but still went broke due to bad contracts and managers - Fetty discusses the night of his 4 year old daughters death - Recent RICO indictment -Depression (he...

    Know anyone who married just for the benefits that come with it?

    I think everyone who gets married does so for the benefits. whether it's financial, sex, kids, or convenience/comfort, job advancement, security - That's why when one or all of those benefits run out, the divorce rate is so high. Unrealistic expectations and unplanned outcomes. The inherent...

    Venom: Let There Be Carnage

    I've heard nothing but BAD things about this movie. That R-rating did not serve it's purpose. I think Tom Hardy done peaked.

    AMC+ includes the Shudder app. Those are my go-to channels for horror/thriller based independent content including EPIX as of late. I HATED The Walking Dead- lost it's appeal for me after Season 2. The Walking Dead is for people who think they like horror series bc that's how they marketed it...

    "US" was more horror related to me than Get Out tbh. That unexpected conclusion at the end of US was on another level. Definitely liked US much better than Get Out.

    Not really. I mean, in terms of psychological horror - yes. But it was more of mystery/thriller elements imo. I think your question is subjective in a way. Because one person's concept of horror or what scares them, may not apply to someone else. For me, if it's not monsters, ghosts...
