That's No Moon

If you want to keep having these movies that's fine but they should at least build in each other in some sort of meaningful way not just reboot the whole thing every couple years after a bad movie came out or an actor got too old to do the part. Marvel did a nice job having a whole bunch of movies all connected together that all together told a story. DC has been terrible at that save a couple good individual movies here and there. They started to get on the right track with the Justice League thing even though it wasn't very good. Maybe it will turn out ok but the idea of trying to force all the previous Batman things together into a multiverse doesn't seem like it will go well. So now you'll have Wonder Woman who not only transcends time, she transcends time in multiple universes? Are Heath Ledger Joker and Jared Leto Joker in the same universe or different ones? And yes I know there are a million crossover comics and thousands of stories told in those comics but they all follow a fairly long arc. Doing this over and over again feels like a skipping record rather than following an actual arc from beginning to middle to end where the next Batman becomes Batman at the end of the previous Batman not back at the start again. Same thing with Superman. Stop starting over from the beginning and just follow a story arc.

I know right? Doesn't it feel like they are just completely out of ideas? Isn't it about time for another stab at Fantastic Four?

So the film that is supposed to unite all the Batman movies as coming from a common place rather than treating them as separate entities? Sort of the Rick and Morty of Batman movies where there is a multiverse of Batmen with some time travel thrown in(which is distinctly not Rick and Morty)? Hopefully not literal time travel so few movies handle that well. That doesn't feel like a good idea but we will see I guess. I hope they don't do that to the Spider Man movies but I guess they sort of did with the animated one. The earlier ones just need to be left alone to die. When Disney redoes XMen to be less of a debacle let's equally hope for a clean reboot.

It'd be nice to have a DC movie that isn't hot garbage. And after the Batman with Bale and Ledger they should have stopped. That was peak Batman.

Something about shae butter.

I thought the question was how BB got an operative into the lab?

particularly that I'm going to guess that deaths from other causes such as vehicular accidents are significantly down this year.

Probably as many who end up not getting tested at all who are positive. One of my wife's employees lives in Florida and was turned away from 3 testing sites including one who told her "we've had too many positive tests today so we aren't doing any more." She ended up hospitalized.

Also is it out of bounds to suggest it's rare to find a Jets fan with two balls?

I agree with you. Total JAG.

Is his primary ball one of those giant eyeball balls in honor of Adam Gase?

Given the circumstances of the year I think 3qbs on the roster and another on the PS is prudent.

Or it means the offensive line is still steaming dog excrement.

It's no different from his games. Which plays do you want to watch? Good Josh, or Bad Josh? There are plenty of both.

Hauschka missing two from 50+ in one day isn't an issue. Him missing 2 from 50+ SHORT in August when the weather is about as nice as it's ever going to get is super concerning.

Do people really not understand this? Right, but you're not supposed to throw the ball to the pawn 60 yards downfield.

Because he knows BB spends his time breaking down offenses and their verbiage.

Yeah, there were some explosions but you didn't see fireworks I don't think. This is video of a fireworks disaster in the Netherlands and you very clearly see fireworks in the sky before the big explosion. I don't know what something like mortar rounds would look like if they cooked off in a fire. That big explosion is ammonium nitrate though. Lots of it.

Not necessarily. Lots of explosive things have other uses, such as fertilizer.

The word cat can also refer to people. It's colloquial.

Bates, or Boettger I think

The key word here is safe return and "the medical community" is not advocating for all schools just to open and have kids there 5 days a week in all circumstances. Here's a quote from that link and this is where the problem comes in. "Local school leaders, public health experts, educators and parents must be at the center of decisions about how and when to reopen schools, taking into account the spread of COVID-19 in their communities and the capacities of school districts to adapt safety protocols to make in-person learning safe and feasible. For instance, schools in areas with high levels of COVID-19 community spread should not be compelled to reopen against the judgment of local experts. A one-size-fits-all approach is not appropriate for return to school decisions. Reopening schools in a way that maximizes safety, learning, and the well-being of children, teachers, and staff will clearly require substantial new investments in our schools and campuses." I'm not saying schools shouldn't re-open or that there aren't substantial benefits to kids in having the buildings open. Clearly there are. What I'm saying is that the guidance that exists does not work in so many circumstances that it is virtually useless. There has been no substantial investment in the campuses. There is no way to distance people safely in the structures that many districts have. There are 930 students in the building I work in. My class sizes range from 30-38. The kids sit on top of one another. There is no place to spread them out. There are no unused classrooms in our building there is no money to procure trailers to add additional classrooms and definitely no money to add staff to teach in those classrooms. So we then start talking about staggering schedules. OK, well if a kid is in school twice a week and home the other three, or whatever break out you want, you haven't solved the core reason why so many people want the buildings open, so the parents can go back to work. So what you will have still is a situation where parents either need to be home for kids who are too young to watch themselves, leave the kids home alone, or try to find some sort of day care option that A. has space, B. they can afford, and C. will accept a kid for a select number of days per week. Here's another example of how the guidance doesn't work. The most recent thing I've heard is to have kids in self-contained pods with one teacher. Well, that works for elementary school just fine. That doesn't work in high school. The teacher who teaches 11th grade English isn't qualified to teach calculus. They aren't certified to do so, they don't have the expertise to do so, and it's not something you can quickly pick up in 3 weeks to be able to do. So either the kids or the teachers need to move. Again working on this pod idea. It is virtually impossible to create a pod of kids at the high school level who are all in the same level of classes across the board. So again, you are either moving the kids around so they can get what they need or you are moving the teachers around. There isn't a way to do that sort of thing at that level. My school is a middle school so it's a bit of all of these issues. The 6th graders are too young to manage themselves at home, everyone moves to different classes and has different levels, you have many teachers who aren't cross trained to teach everything (I am certified to teach every subject and Spec Ed. I'm the only one in my building like that). So how do you do this in a way that achieves people's goals and yet is still safeish. There are simple problems that I still haven't heard an answer to such as transportation. How do you socially distance on a bus? In order to follow guidelines kids would have to be no more than one to a seat. That cuts your capacity in at least half and younger kids often sit 3 to a seat. There isn't a pool of empty buses (or people to drive them) just sitting around. Staggering schedules might address some of that but then you get into the other issues I mentioned as well as a host more. I work with our transportation company pretty closely coordinating sports buses and I can tell you that they don't have enough drivers in a regular year and a lot of the drivers they have are older people. That is going to be a disaster. Substitute teachers are similar. Lots are retired teachers. You can't compel them to take assignments, they are able to pick and choose where, when, and if they want to work. I'm expecting MANY of them not to be working this year. So when you have a teacher get sick there isn't going to be a replacement. Again, we have trouble getting subs in a regular year. If we have more than 5 people out in a day normally the additional spots don't get filled. On a Monday or a Friday in the winter it's more like 3 and we can have 10-15 people out sometimes in a regular year. When that happens, and the spots don't get picked up, administrators teach class and/or we consolidate classes into the gym or the auditorium and do what we need to do to get through the day. Well, if you are distancing you can't consolidate classes like that so what do you do? We only have 3 administrators.

And decided among themselves.
