“Would you take this 10-minute satisfaction survey about the website you just arrived at?”

As a San Francisco resident I can assert that even if you hadn’t drunk Anchor Steam in a while you miss it when it’s gone. There aren’t a lot of amber lagers out there and when it’s on tap it’s more reliably enjoyable than the other taps’ brotastic IPAs.

I had the good fortune to live in Portland in the 90's and enter legal drinking age just as the craft brewing renaissance was in full swing.

Simple, they should convert their offices to retail shops for $899 juice bag squeezers. I tell you this guy’s got that Elon Level Genius.

You’re not thinking like a rock star. THERE IS NO OTHER HALF. It was the next visionary step from 1980's Half Shirt and Half Pants.

For a set of HBO subscribers and their latchkey kids it started with the “5th Annual Young Comedians Showcase” in 1980 hosted by Carl Reiner. Pee-Wee Herman arrives fully formed. A year later we got the classic special with Mombi and Cap’n Carl.

She had a whole album “No Veteran Dies Alone” ready to publish and tour for when her son died last year. I dearly hope it gets a proper release.

Another challenge of mapping software is that, on top of the “literal” data like geography, structures, legal and commercial designations that change over time, there are multiple layers of “what people call it” with no single right answer. Especially from a municipal level down: towns, regions, neighborhoods, even…

Kamala the comics character was a fan of all the superheroes, had an early adventure with Wolverine and did Champions with teen Cyclops. So Iman the superfan gets to write Kamala the superfan getting to join the X-Men. I’ve got high hopes. The mutants could use a bit of embiggened sunshine right now.

So the lesson the studios will learn from Barbie is probably “people want brightly colored movies about toys”

So the original Kenner R2-D2 figures for the first three movies accidentally had R-7 heads?

My only complaint is that we’d just gotten a really good, fleshed out Captain Carter in What If...? and now here’s live action Haley Atwell but it’s Captain Carter again just as a shock cameo. Compare that to her appearance in Endgame during the heist where it’s later in her life, Steve is long gone, and she’s…

This is clever but also stress inducing. LED color lights and digital cameras don’t work together well. The pure wavelengths look understated to human eyes but overload the same-wavelength sensors on even an advanced phone camera. Violet tends to be the worst. What looks like a slight purple tinge to the audience…

Apparently the sewing machine had multiple inventors. Some had their work destroyed or withheld their inventions for fear of how many people would be put out of work. Isaac Singer didn’t entirely invent a machine, he was just the first to bring someone else’s design to market and claim a patent, which he was…

That’s really impressive if it’s actually good. Might even get me down to Anaheim, which I’m just now realizing sounds like one of the Nine Realms.

Even with competent tech companies reduced service due to back end changes are no big deal. It says everything about Elon that he needed to make up enemies “data scraping” and “system manipulating” the site.

The Devil’s Own deserves an award for running its trailer before the Special Edition re-release of Star Wars: A New Hope and immediately becoming an audience participation game to loudly cheer Harrison Ford and boo Brad Pitt for not being Harrison Ford.

The utopia deep within the Sarlaac is populated by intelligent hats and/or Sleestaks.

I’m glad they at least addressed the Avengers with the plausible argument that it’s too dangerous to get any of them Skrull replaced. It would still be good to get a sense of where this show is in the timeline, since the Asgardians settle on Earth during the five year Snap. After the Blip they’re a tourist destination…

Talos says they hadn’t found a new planet yet because Skrulls are hated and hunted everywhere.
