Christ, I'm so sorry for that thing about smoking with J-Ho and watching Lord of the Rings.
this some pretty nerdy shit, y'all
This Samsung 65" is $900 off right now:

I like the One Connect feature where everything plugs into a separate box connected to the TV by an almost invisible fiber optic cord. Seems like it'd be a lot easier to wall mount the TV and hide the rest of yo shit.
For serious. What the hell did I just walk into?
Awesome stuff.
I often think of who would be at my five (living) person dinner table for good convo (RIP Johan Cruyff, sorry you couldn't make it; hang in there Donny Fagen, we'll get to it one day maybe; Bob Dylan -- permanent member), but I think my dream "passing around a j, reading poetry, talking early 90s hoops/sporting sock wear, sitting on bean bag chairs" -room would consist of Lawrence "Poetry In" Moten, Delino Deshields, and Exree Hipp. Tommy Meschery can come hang, too, if he's still with us.
I wonder if there's any appreciable difference between the Samsung MU8000 and MU9000. The MU9000 is $400 more.
I now carry with me, most of the time, a shady gray plastic bag that I got from the now-defunct Chapel Hill head shop HAZMAT when buying screens, which I use for my own personal, portable apothecary; I carry, at various times, tinctures, CBD products, EMERGEN-Cs, Aleves, Kava/Kratom, and I feel totally weird doing it. But fuck it.
I like this twist on the dinner guest game: setting the boundaries for conversation. If I set the topics of conversation at best breakfast spots, psychopharmacology, water transportation, and the art deco aesthetic, who are your four guests?
ugh the bezel on the 8000 is grotesque
