Clearly a fake. That's a VP position on the org chart.

They mean using it to the limits of the vehicle’s capabilities. Which, in a car that powerful, is something almost no drivers do off of a racetrack.  Unless they're psychopathically unconcerned with the safety of themselves and others or willing to go out to the middle of nowhere and risk being stranded and without…

Current AI can’t do any physical work without very expensive specially built robots. If we have a universal income how do we get people to do the often unpleasant jobs that cannot be automated in a cost effective manner? I suppose if they demand premium wages for their labor that would change the calculation as to…

I don't even think you could get away with this in Florida. If the government didn't stop you the Florida Men would. How is it possible in New Zealand, a civilized country?

Oh it was pretty funny to me at the time so I didn’t think it was bad, it was just noticeably weird even to a kid how this cynical version of a sitcom was now on to Scooby Doo adventures.

The later seasons must be where the episode that takes place in a haunted castle in England happens. I think they’re messing around with ghosts, trying (and failing) to break the Bundy family curse. I remember seeing that on the original run and wondering what in the world had happened to the show.

Got to love the people who think a couple of paragraphs of incoherent abuse on a celebrity’s social media will somehow move the needle of progress forward. I swear some of these people live according to the ideas of sympathetic magic. I’m pretty sure that’s what “vibes” are. I think we’re descending from our behavior…

Easy to say for an octogenarian but those of us who don’t have to wear Depends prefer not to start just to watch an entire movie.

Your father was lucky enough to be involved in a political situation in which the US saw a benefit to every Soviet defector they could get to the States. For propaganda purposes in the Cold War, not because of any perceived value in human lives. Current asylum seekers do not have that advantage. Every time the…

Off-brand? Abominable Snowman's "Frosted Flakes" and "Yeti Love" are classic bangers to this day.

We tend to see people who are 80+ and doing well going about their lives. The “doing well” part is key. Many people that old are not doing well. Because one actor can continue working into their senior years doesn’t mean anything about anyone else. People are different and age differently. Even knowing nothing about…

Are these just libertarians in practice? Because it doesn't sound like they'd recognize the word if you said it to them. "What the hell kind of liberal did you just call me!?!" That type.

The man is the Elon Musk of fantasy and this book is his Cybertruck.

Just stop. They won't listen. Everyone here wants people to make decisions as if we lived in the world they would like to exist rather than the one that actually does. So they think things like taking into account the biases of the voting public are ridiculous, provided they do not agree with said biases. Many seem to…

The rest of what you’re saying is just stupid nonsense defending a geriatric cosmetic surgery victim for having crimes committed against family members but I am interested in hearing about these kebab remedies. Sounds tasty.

Found the guy who wants to kidnap people for their own good. Apparently it's okay if they're family, who knew?

It’s a rare individual that can transcend the more of their time and place, even rarer that they can communicate this ecumenism in writing. For a straight white guy who seems to have been raised in a mid-50s Norman Rockwell painting he's doing okay. 

It’s been decades since I read that one but it was definitely a departure, so much that I’d call it science fiction rather than straight horror. Definitely an interesting concept. Especially the idea that the real parasite was completely mental or at least bodiless somehow. So that the ship that crashed on earth was…

I think he’s great at describing characters. He’s great at describing everything! It’s just when they start moving around and interacting with each other rather than sitting still for him to paint a word portrait they come off a bit clunky and stilted. It really shows in how awkward romantic relationships between his c…

I read it through the eyes of a child however so 🤷‍♂️.
