If you’re a book collector, Folio Society editions are worth it.

The time setting of the original novels, as much as I enjoyed them, are problematic in their racism and sexism (especially in the second novel -- but the other aspects of which when they settle on the new planet and explore the cities of the people that had lived there I very much enjoyed).

She piloted the saucer section to a safe landing, saving pretty much everyone aboard, including the core bridge crew, who in the Picard series finale literally saved humanity and the Federation.

Fixed that for you.

It skips the tricky part — actually successfully landing the first time and then building all that stuff.

The historic Eagle Theatre (which opened under the name of the Yosemite Theatre in 1929) in the Eagle Rock neighborhood of Los Angeles is currently undergoing state-of-the-art renovation by the Vidiots Foundation, opening (we hope!) by the summer. Adding insult to injury the space was operated by some freaky-deaky

I wish your former landlord unending personal and financial misery for the rest of his life.

It’s about as much of a thing as the hyperloop wasn’t, and forever won’t.

Since when are banana peels edible? They’re incredibly astringent and taste nasty. (Sure, “edible” as in “won’t kill you” but not edible as “anything I’d want to eat anytime soon.”)

I had it chronically as a kid, and occasionally as an adult. It ruined a 2019 vacation to New Orleans, in fact. (It hurt too much to eat. In THAT city.) The prospect of getting it again is an unpleasant thought.

Several friends have said they’ve stopped using Circles because of this very thing. Meanwhile, people I’ve blocked and muted are now fully visible if they’re in a “Trending” topic.

He’s an infant.

The man who shot him is a dangerous lunatic (and there are FAR too many of these lunatics walking around with guns in this country), but Tanner Cook is an idiot.

I bought the “authentic hand-hammered wok from the People’s Republic of China” from this very informercial. I still have it 3o+ years later. It still woks perfectly.

“What if, for instance, the world were to get slightly warmer?”

I’m old enough to remember when Hubig’s had baked whole pies available. Sigh.

I’m thinking the best way is going to be to buy a waffle maker that has removable plates you can scrub more easily. Or put in the dishwasher (although I don’t think the non-stick surface likes dishwashers, does it?).

THIS! The instant the first photon from the fixin’-to-rise sun strikes my eyelid I wake up, and I do not need to be awake before sunrise. The sleep mask (I prefer the Alaska Bear brand black silk ones) has been a sanity-saver. My Apple Watch wakes me up with the haptic tapping.

I’ll line up for Brontoburgers too.

I am chartreuse with envy over your retirement. I’m counting the days. (1,322 if the numbers line up by then, fewer if some miraculous windfall of money happens.) Once I’m retired I want to put dinner on the table no later than 7pm.

Meanwhile, I’ll try some roasted beets on a weekend when I’m home.

I’ve talked to people on the bird app who live in her district. They assured me that her constituents are just as awful as she is and gleefully vote for her.
