The "What's on your mind?" thread

[civiclx]

I haven't played tennis in about a year. That's just...I don't even know how to describe that.
Actually I don't feel the need to play like I used to but at one point, I was obsessed with it. I just couldn't wait to play and wanted to play as often as possible. Hopefully I don't have to wait another year before I play again.

Grab some balls and hit ‘em. When you’re done find some tennis balls and play a round.😊

On my mind now is will I be able to take a trip without any interference. The plan was Oct 15-17 but now I am not so sure with different things happening. Luckily I can cancel for free before the 15th but I do want to go.

What do others recommend for a FHD TV? I would like to place it on my desk and replace my very old 20 inch Toshiba TV. Just want to watch Blu-rays on it.

I don't know what type of display would be best. Black Friday is around the corner so I'd like to purchase one.

Thanks.

Looking at the alleged incomes of Twitch streamers from the recent hack and crying to myself.

These numbers (if true) are unreal.

I only used WhatsApp for the first time within the last year. I have only used it a handful of times. Are there any scams where people you don't know send you a message?

9 more days and I will be in Lexington. Honestly hope I get it all in this trip but trying to close the account is another matter entirely.

at least I can finally change my stereo to my Pioneer one I've used in my old car and not deal with MS/Ford's stupid Sync system that hardly works with my ipod.

I have Denis Villeneuve's movie 'Dune' on my mind.

Ironically I'll be in Virginia in 10days.

now I am wondering what I did with some bags. I thought I got them from the unit but maybe not. If they aren't there then I probably lost them. won't know until 8 days from now.

Do deaf people even like these white on black subs? They're so ugly.

I think I'm going to talk to the Ex this weekend about my daughter living with me after she gets out of the hospital. My Ex is planning on moving out to Washington, and I think its pretty evident the kid isn't interested in living out there again.

What do you call a product market that has lost 86% of it's value over the last 13 years?

I booked a ticket for No Time To Die for tomorrow. Haven't set foot inside a movie theater in over 18 months so I'm very excited. Dune is next (or maybe Halloween Kills).

[Xtempo]

thinking the place doesn't have the part or USPS isn't scanning the shipped packaged. I'll have to ask my brother about this after or close to the 16th when I am suppose to get this.

Speaking of subtitles, I've noticed non-hearing-impaired people using subtitles on films they watch, and not even films with deep, difficult accents. It's like a comfort crutch, and a bad one at that, since it's inherently spoilery to have subs on while watching a film.

To be fair, many newer movies are mixed badly and often the actors don't even make an effort to speak clearly anymore. Matthew McConaughey is PRAISED for mumbling through half his lines, with that purposely deep voice. He's much easier to understand in interviews.

Shit, i needed subs for Tenet. The dialog was drowned out by the bass and music and sound

Glad it's the weekend.

Just scheduled my 4th interview since I graduated, so 4 interviews in 6 months. Not as many as I'd like but probably more than most people get. It's for a family service coordinator job and it will be Tuesday after work at 3:30. REALLY hope I get it, can't remember the last time I got through a shift at work and felt like I was glad I went to work that day.
