God, I don't care.
God, I don't care.
I think I finally understand how my dad felt in 1980, when Reagan was elected. (He said he felt so alienated from the rest of the country that he stopping watching network news, because he could no longer relate to it.)
I think I'm primarily numb.
The 3-D is worth it if you have the option, and I say that as a person who normally avoids 3-D because it's physically uncomfortable.
I don't know if you can bring in a cheat sheet. I've never tried. In my state, I know I'm not supposed to bring in any electronic devices when I'm filling out my ballot (they don't, like, confiscate my phone, but they'd probably object to me using it).
I love early voting. (Especially because my regular polling location is inconvenient to get to, whereas there's an early voting location in the town center I pass through on my way to and from work.) It took me a whopping fifteen minutes last week, and I think that's because I was there as they were just starting to…
We should aspire to online voting eventually, but I'm not comfortable with the security or defensibility of our current level of technology. We need to be very, very, very careful if we move in that direction.

I hate to be this shallow, but her above look is AMAZING and she should always style her hair that way and wear thick-rimmed glasses and chic black pantsuits.
It took me three seasons to twig to the fact that the three male aliens were Tom, Dick, and Harry.
And just as smart and competent. They were insufferable snobs, but also good psychiatrists who genuinely helped people, which made them rootable despite the snobbery.
It doesn't always work out that well, but when it does—nobody will ever understand you as deeply as an agemate sibling you grew up with (by agemate, I mean someone within five years of your own age) who shared your formative environment.
I've got one in Boston and the other in California! Ironically, I'm physically much closer to the one in Boston, since I'm on the East Coast.
I have two sisters, and while none of us have a dynamic quite like Niles and Frasier's, I definitely appreciate the show getting how emotionally intense and complex and important a close sibling relationship can be.
Unproductive, but full of good movies!
Doctor Strange, the excellent Bollywood not-a-romance Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and The Handmaiden. I loved all of them, although that added up to a cumulative nine hours of moviegoing, and I consequently didn't get anything else done all weekend.
I'm glad I actually went the 3-D route. Worth it.
Your face is the most overrated television show in the history of the medium.
The Frasier cast was fantastic, and I love all the characters, but the absolute best aspect of the show was Niles and Frasier's brotherly relationship, with all its ups and downs.
