Sinners Spoilers Review-Was the movie boring in the beginning?

Jason G and I saw Sinners on April 17, 2025.  We both enjoyed the movie.  Initially, I felt it was boring and didn’t care about the characters' backstory.  I even dozed off a few times.  Jason thought it was a little slow to start, but it improved as the movie progressed.  We go into further detail in our spoiler review.  Check out the audio and video we recorded right after seeing the film, as usual.

Chocolate Chip Raisin Cookies Made from Beans-Vegan, No Oil

  YouTube Video I got hurt late last year and was out of work for 3 months.  During this period, I got to dig into interests I didn’t have time for due to work and my social life.  Baking is one of those interests, and I wanted a type of cookie that didn’t raise my blood sugar and had fiber/protein to combat the sugar spike. These cookies are vegan and have no oil.  They can be made gluten-free, but they weren’t in this recipe.  However, as I did in this video, other healthy additions such as psyllium husk, wheat germ, and flaxseed meal can be added.  Why no oil?  Why vegan? I did so to avoid including any cholesterol or excess fat in the cookies. The measurements for the ingredients in the video are not set in stone and can be used as a guide. Will you try this recipe? Any thoughts, comments, or do so below.

Playing Robocop: Rogue City. The beginning section of the 'Isolated Incident' level.

In this latest gameplay video, I'm playing Robocop: Rogue City. I’m a big fan of Robocop.  I’ve seen all the movies, a little bit of the TV show.  The Frank Miller comics were great.  So was his Robocop VS. Terminator series.  I own a Robocop action figure.  The cabinet arcade game back in the day was excellent—the NES game not too much. To say I was interested in playing this game is an understatement.  It went on sale in the Xbox store late last year, and I picked it up.   I’m on the second level in this video called ‘Isolated Incident.’  I’m on the search for a drug dealer named ‘Soot’, which leads me to an arcade that is hiding some criminal activity.

Recent Dance Videos I've posted on Social Media

I will be 50 this year, and I'm trying to record more dance videos. I've been dancing for years and never gave it much thought.  I wish I had prioritized it in the past, as I won't always be able to move like this. This video was on my building's rooftop in April(2025).  With the way the camera is positioned, one friend told me it looked like I was 'dancing on the clouds.' This second video was at a recent party, the first of a monthly party called 'It's a Reggae Party.'  Also in April. Dancing next to Eli Reed, with whom I've made dance videos. Here's the oldest of the videos in this post(September 2024).  I shot this on the balcony of my hotel room in Punta Cana, DR.  It was a big balcony with enough space to shoot this video. This was in a park in the town next to mine.  I've shot videos here before.  This was on a nice weather day in November(2024).

The Amateur Spoiler Movie Review

podcast audio YouTube Video I saw this movie on Thursday, April 10, 2025. There are spoilers in this review. I’ve heard on the internet how Rami Malek almost seems alien-like in his appearance. This, coupled with his performance in the Mr. Robot show, makes him perfect for The Amateur. He plays CIA analyst Charles Heller. At the beginning of the film, his wife is on a business trip in London; terrorist activity takes place during her visit, and she is murdered. Heller then uses his intelligence to solve his wife's murder and get revenge while on the run from his employer. This was really well done, as I felt tense several times while watching The Amateur. In the film, Rami Malek plays a character who aspires to be a field agent. This is hinted at in the first act while talking to Jon Bernthal, who plays this dude-bro agent in several ongoing operations in the field. After the murder of his wife, his CIA superiors suggest Heller go home and mourn. But he feels the government entity ...

eBay Sales for Dec. 2024-Dec 2025 & Overall Sales figures for 2024

YouTube version December and January are strong sales months on eBay, as they are the holiday season.  Before getting into my items sold for these two months, I wanted to discuss my sourcing methods.  I sell my stuff—items I've owned and no longer use. I work in a hotel and receive lost and found items guests leave behind. If the guest hasn't claimed the item within 90 days, the lost and found items are returned to the employee who found the item. Gifts and items guests give me(I didn't mention this in the video). My brother works in a college and also receives lost and found items. Once he's accumulated a box's worth of items, he sends them to me. I give him $40 for each box. My sourcing costs are low. The storage area where I store my eBay items costs $146 per month. My packing supplies are minimal, but I spend $140 per year or less. These are the items I sold in my eBay store for December 2024. The first item I sold was on December 7.  These purple, slim fit, sto...

Recent game streams. UnMetal, Promenade, Balatro, & more Wolfenstein 2.

These are some of my recent game streams on Twitch.  You can also watch them on YouTube. Within the last few months,  I’ve  discovered these YouTube channels discussing games on sale for specific platforms. My criteria (for my own purchases)is that the games should have great reviews and be under $10.  Promenade fit that bill.  I played some of the intro levels in this recent video and found it enjoyable.  Promenade is more of a platformer.  It is the kind of game many of us played as kids(and adults), having roots in games like Super Mario Brothers.   It’s  colorful and not too stressful.   I’m  still learning the mechanics.  Find out what Promenade is about here. I’m  continuing my playthrough of Wolfenstein 2 on the Steam Deck and  I'm  determined to make it the first game I complete on the handheld.  My eyes are not what they used to be, and playing this game on the big screen is better th...
