    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Violent yet mesmerizing, cruelty, greed and self preservation mixed with people genuinely helping those in need, uncomfortably like parts of real life. Unexpected ending. Fast becoming the most watched Netflix show. Possibly may become the most watched new show in the world, IDK.
I quickly binged my way through, and am now watching Alice in Borderland, also part of the violent game genre.
 
Finished the season of Alice, would be glad to hear about your Netflix faves.
 
Heck, I dropped Netflix a couple of years ago when they raised the prices. They kept on cancelling series that I was partway through watching, or had marked to watch later, and I found their progression towards their own generated content quite lacking in quality and interest. Not to mention that many times their servers would fail while watching something. So I decided I could live without them.

A few months ago I took a look at their current offerings, thinking maybe they had changed for the better, but not so much, so I declined to renew the service.
 
Not netflix but You Tube TV and HBO Max. We had satellite tv but I have not watched tv in years. Not news, shows or sports. Wife said we pay too much and asked me to research. I went with Youtube TV and bought a wireless tv for her upstairs. All local channels and tons of other stuff for $50 a month.

I had heard about Game of Thrones and Sapranos which I thought I'd like. HBO Max is a $15 a month add on to youtube tv so got that. With HBO you get first run movies by Warner Brothers free the same day they hit theaters. Watching Cry Macho by Clint Eastwood this weekend.

Both Game of Thrones and Sapranos is excellent. The acting and direction is just awesome. Each episode ends with a cliff hanger that makes you want to just start up next one.

I am hard of hearing so I use my ipad and headphones and I am once again enjoying watching shows.
