I recently binged an 8-part series called Giri/Haji and really enjoyed it. It's a crime family drama set in Tokyo and London. Highly recommended.

It's farking excellent. Really well done and bonus Kelly Macdonald

Yep. Must admit I wasn't expecting the contemporary dance number in the ...

What a piece of shit.

But But But... the other guy stumbled over his words (then immediately corrected himself)!!

Immediately corrected himself. :lol:

interesting question ; here's another one ; who has created more instability globally leading directly and indirectly to civilian deaths ; Obama or Trump ? consider what he has done/not done in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Israel/Palestine, free pass to poison pen pal Putin, Kurds ; not to mention domestic ...

The Dems are weak on law and order because there's rioting and police killings under Trump?

They're democratic cities aren't they?

The trouble with dems is they dont want to piss off their base by going against BLM protestors but end up inadvertently opening the door for anarchists to run ...

thats the hilarious part......Trump is narrowing the gap because of riots in the streets while he is president ! we need a tough guy in charge to get this all under control and here's your guy - Donald ...

Dubya's folsky aw gee shucks thing was an act. The guy was smart and was selling it to his base. In a way that makes him a lot worse than if he was just a bumbling buffoon, but history will likely judge him much kindlier than he deserves thanks to Trump.

:thumbup: had this discussion with my ...

Hang on a second. This is the Trump thread and we're discussing somebody else's mental acuity (or lack thereof)?

In some ways, you have to marvel at the Republicans barefaced cheek in flipping their candidate's weaknesses and projecting them onto the opposition.

nothing new, Dubya, the ...

seriously ? fcuk off we're full

93 cases, no deaths

Getting ridiculous now

Nobody will break ranks as the deaths will go up at some point as it's winter and people will be all SEE SEEEEEE. I wonder if the Russkies are involved online on this sowing discord . There is a lad on facebag who just repeatedly shites on about ...

just great ; out for 9 months - Jesus wept, turned on the Connacht munster match to see POM steal a line out and then get dropped on his shoulder

Read online the other day someone refer to Biden as the democrat equivalent of George W Bush and when I thought about it for a second I think that it works. He's more of a frontman than the man. No-one takes him that seriously but he's an unimposing, unthreatening nice guy who is hard to dislike ...

Fonz is one of those massive spoofers who sort of admires Trump's moxy and is sore his boy Sanders lost. So rather than but his big boy pants on and accept the loss he is schmoozing around pretending Biden rather than the massive tit Trump is the problem. It comes from the same place the riots ...

It sort of is here. Fück all cases and fück all deaths. Diseases burn out all the time and Big Don just got his timing a bit off. By November the US will have it under control and he will walk the election.

I often wonder whether VP picks are critically important to the outcome of Presidential elections or if their significance is overrated. The only VP pick in my lifetime that I feel certain had a decisive impact on an election was McCain's selection of Sarah Palin.

I feel that it is better to ...

The video I saw of him being chased in the street and shooting, there's clearly someone saying that he's shot someone. He's an active threat basically.

I dont know what went down with the first shooting but in the video I saw there's a mob of people chasing him, one guy swinging a skateboard ...

that crazy man Cormac Lucey had an interesting article about a UK government study about QALYs (quality adjusted life years) gained in the UK by implementing the lockdown (530,000 directly and 30,000 due to avoided road deaths) vs lost (41k reduced access to A&E) 73,000 postponement of surgeries ...

Christ. Just saw Tucker Carlson's latest mind-shart about the 17 year old who killed a couple of protesters...I've stayed off the political threads for a while, but I'd be interested to know if anyone thinks that Tucker is in any way justified in defending this?

If the border crossing is an issue does that change the jurisdiction of the murder from state law to federal law?

It may just be as simple as it's illegal to bring an undeclared weapon into Wisconsin, in which case, no. I don't know if there even is a federal law against transporting weapons ...

lads it sucks that we lost the EU Trade Commissioner Post but Hogan is the one that shot himself in the foot, reloaded and shot the other one ; if he had got out in front of the story earlier, did a complete mea culpa, not blamed the hotel, confessed to everything I think he would have made it ...

Government still going after Hogan.

Saying he clearly breached the guidelines.

I'm not sure Ursula will like individual governments trying to control whether her Commisioners stay or go.

She should tell the Irish government to stay out of EU Commission business.

Whoever wins the election, I honestly see nothing serious happening. There might be a bunch making some noise, but not even a fraction of the size of the recent marches and damage caused in say Portland or Seattle.

yeah, if Trump loses it'll be another sideshow with plenty of angry fcuking ...

Trump is saying the only way he can lose is if the election is rigged. He though he appears to have been the one trying to rig it by suppressing votes.

What's his conspiracy theory and is it any more lamentable than the dems' USPS delusional hysteria?
