It's pretty much just an overpriced android box that people are going to use to emulate SNES games on their TVs. Other than that, there's a ton of terrible shovelware titles like this thing.

this show grates on me really bad and it's hard to put my finger on why.
i saw the first season with my wife and it seems to want to capture the life (non-)experience of a bunch of ambitionless homely emotional children slumming it in Brooklyn, waiting for their parents upstate to die so they can inherit everything. which is fine in and of itself but I can't think of anything more banal.

wait have you always been married?

i'm more like them than i want to be, ideally, apart from the money part because I've never had zip but it feels like maybe it is heading somewhere and since lena dunham obviously doesn't expect you to think any of these people really have their shit together in any way, i don't get why they would annoy you. they're all dumb. it's a pretty good representation of being in your early 20's and realising you have no fucking skills and that just being you doesn't mean anything.

hundley is right tho, shit's so irreparably fucked in the media and it's going to continually get worse and worse

 
This is defeatist and unrealistic, even. Both mainstream opinion and social media have been behind the curve concerning civil progress. Consider that black voting privilege was ensured only 48 years ago. Since then, both public opinion and media portrayal has been changed in a vast way, even though it took time. I do not believe the media is going to make significant backwards turns as long as the criticism exists and the opinion is held that racial and sexual stereotypes exist. The changes are god-awful slow, but as long as there is an opposition, the sentiments change, whether it be the old ignorance dying out, or a more accepting generation moving in.

Anyone know of any routines to actually put on weight?
 
I'm 6'1" but only 118 lbs (!) - haven't gained weight since highschool and that was almost 10 years ago. Tried eating tons and eating unhealthily but nothing ever worked so maybe weightlifting is the way to go? I hate being skinny!
