Afternoon games are lame. Especially as a Titans fan. You're going to make me stress out for three extra hours, just to stab me in the face with another loss anyway? Burn in hell.

Instant decision paralysis, yeah.

Want to tell instead of showing? Hopefully you're writing an animated movie and you've got a decent musical number lined up.

And?

You misspelled Jeffrey Simmons.

Looks like I'll be in Kansas City for the World Cup in the round of 32. Hopefully it's the best game ever.

People feel good about this stuff - and they should if they think it's an illegal power grab - but it all gets taken to the SCOTUS & they're on a historic run of accepting every emergency filling, almost exclusively deciding for Trump (even if against precedent and law) all while explaining nothing.

Second worst! Second worst! SECOND WORST!!!

Titans fans walking into work tomorrow after winning the weirdest game ever:

I feel gross, but whatever. Cam lit it up at the end. That's what matters. Maybe that serves as the motivation this team needed?

A kicker is either reliable or they're worthless. Slye has been unreliable for the Titans lately. Move on. They're not good enough to play through some dorkys yips with this nobody.

Put Milquetoast's Titans tenure out of its misery, get a new voice leading this squad and install different processes, rhythms and player relationships for awhile to see how players (and which ones) respond, then clear house and move on at the end of the year.

How many Cardinals players would have to get injured for the Titans to have a chance? Well, it only matters if they're on defense.

The Titans defense is essentially Simmons and a cloud of duds.

Someone asked in our fantasy football chat and apparently I'm the only one who isn't anal retentive about making sure cash in a wallet has all of the bills facing the same way. I think this is weird. Why do people care?

Making my way through season 3 of Stranger Things. Six episodes in at this point. I already believed it but the the rewatch has crystalized my belief that Billy is the most complete story arc, the most compelling character and the single best thing this series had done so far.

This is the antithesis of a DM's role.

Lost some e-friends this way back on the Twitter machine a handful of years ago.

Might be the most broken, cursed and self-sabotaged event rollout I've ever seen. FIFA really is the worst. www.nytimes.com/athletic/668...

Out-of-practice practice: "Many dreams do not have deep meaning and not all deep meaning can be delved. This is no story, child. It is work and effort, mistake and revelation. There is insight in the witnessing of the dream but there is also insight in understanding.

Proud to be the 343rd backer 😎 on @BackerKit Crowdfunding for The Dungeon Crawler Carl: CROCODILE graphic novel! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/v...

$30 / month is enough that I'll let my membership go. These companies are delusional.

14 hours left to Green Angel Tower. One of the things I struggle with in this novel, I think, is probably a realistic thing. But it's no fun to read. And that is - characters like Simon are too variable. He can fight seasoned veterans and war all day but gets licked by a big oaf in a dungeon.

The POTUS sure seems to be advocating that he's going to deploy the army into Democratic cities and calling it a war. What do we call it when a country declares war on itself?

I had forgotten how bad Stranger Things season 2 episode 7 is, from concept to execution, even acting and costuming is off. Overwrought in every way. The absolute worst. Side quest to train up should never be a full episode. I'd also forgotten how tiresome bad-with-english Eleven is. Move on.

Stranger Things Season 2 where the conspiracy theorist gives alcohol to minors and encourages them to have sex in his spare room instead of going him is ... certainly something.

Frank Gore being among 13 finalists for the HOF will never not be dumb.

Every time I watch an 80s movie, I swear to God that there's always a random scene in a strip club. Xennial here and I find nudity and sex scenes a bit detrimental as well. Awkward to recommend to our watch with friends, often can't / won't watch with kids, truly adds nothing to quality. Just lame.

This is not at all unique to week 3. It's been intermittent all season so far. www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootb...

I need a bad game from Nabers to win my fantasy league tonight. So far I'm getting ... whatever a zero is.

Update: The Titans remain getting bossed on every tackle attempt.

The Titans have to stop throwing the ball to Calvin Ridley. He's a detriment in every way. Fully into his own head and incapable of catching anything.

Update: The tackling got even worse.

The Colts are running through tackle after tackle after tackle after tackle after tackle after tackle after tackle after tackle. This team isn't in the game mentally. At least not on defense. At least not in that drive. Getting close to looking like a "team gave up" situation.

Brian Callahan is in so far over his head. The guy doesn't maximize anything. That team lacks talent but the utilization of the talent is at best break even and is probably sub-talent. Sometimes a guy is smart and knows football but can't manage variables and push the right buttons to motivate.

One of the biggest mistakes everyone seems to make is trying to influence instead of just living and focusing attention on positive change in local communities; being involved, active parents who limit social media for themselves and (especially) children; seeking in-person dialogue with others.

The Tennessee Titans.

Don't want to brag but I almost won at a competitive video game tonight.

And then people started doing it. And still nothing happened.

Did Bane know which direction the receiving team was going to choose or did he just get lucky

I gotta tell you, Gearbox is dead to me. I didn't even buy Borderlands 4 and I'm outraged.

I don't care who you are or what you do. If your last name is Krueger, I will never be able to take you seriously. I'll just be thinking of fictional horror movie characters. It's like if your name was Sting Johnson. There is only one Sting. You gotta change your name or go by something else, bro.

Your neighbor is not your enemy. ... unless you live next to a billionaire. Or John. F U John!
