Can't tell you how much I wish movies like these were still being made.
And these are just a few of my favorites. There's also White Fang, Little Giants, The Sandlot, Blank Check, Richie Rich... the list goes on.
They were filled with real people, real locations, real extras, real friendships, and real stakes (at least when you were 10 years old).
The heroes weren't perfect. Kids failed. They got hurt. They were scared. There was a little light cursing, an awkward romance, and a lot of heart.
I think about when Henry realizes his Mom was actually the star pitcher, or when Junior Bevel sees his Dad wearing a Jamaican Bobsled Team shirt, or the first "Ducks Fly Together" chant.
Today's family movies can still tell great stories, but I miss this era of real life adventures. There was something about watching real kids in a real world that made you believe you could have an adventure too.
Maybe it's nostalgia, or maybe we really did lose something worth keeping.
If you think someone cut 350 feet of a thick sealant that’s underwater in the middle of the night under video surveillance with a box cutter, you’re fucking stupid.
MAGA isn’t “low information”. MAGA is “NO information”. It’s 100% vibes and feelings.
Couldn’t name a bill she doesn’t like. Doesn’t know how many amendment or articles are in the constitution. DOESN’T KNOW HOW MANY CONTINENTS THERE ARE.
Dean obliterates. MAGA in shambles.
A note to my friends who still back Trump:
I am not here to dunk on you. I am writing because you have a working brain, and this story insults it.
The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool got a $14 million paint job. Shortly thereafter the water turned green and the new “American flag blue” coating started peeling off the bottom in sheets. Trump says vandals did it. He claims, without evidence, that someone took a knife and cut a 300-foot slit, a number that grew to 350 feet while he was still talking.
Back on May 4, Trump bragged about that same coating and said, if you had a knife, you could not even cut it, so strong, like powerful rubber. He cannot have it both ways.
And the green water?
A George Mason scientist tested it and found ordinary, non-toxic algae, the kind that blooms in any shallow sunny pool. To fight it, crews dumped hydrogen peroxide into the water.
Hydrogen peroxide is also a paint stripper.
That, not sabotage or vandalism, is the obvious reason the paint came off. They wrecked their own paint job, then blamed phantom vandals for it.
The lone "vandal" they paraded is a 67-year-old Olympian who touched a flap of paint already peeling on its own.
Here is the thing. If they will look you in the eye and lie about something this small, something you can see with your own eyes, ask yourself what else they are lying to you about.
Again, you have a working brain. People like Karoline Leavitt are counting on you to stay loyal instead of exercising independent thought.
Prove them wrong.
The Nats fans roared when Bryce struck out in the 8th and then immediately after had to watch us take the lead on a dropped ball and then drop 8 runs on them in the 9th. I tried to tell yall this is bigger than baseball. You cannot compete with witchcraft.
Seeing Alicia go from comedic relief to full blown ACTIVATED mode gives me more life than any housewife has in a long time. She is GOLDEN.
Liz needs to put down the bottle and find out what really causes her to be so vicious at her big age. #RHORI
I think Liz thinks she can walk all over Alicia & bulldoze her verbally. That seems to be the perception most of them have but truthfully every time some drama has been brought to Alicia she rises to the occasion & hits back just as hard. My crackah queen! #RHORI
