It was 10 deliveries that day, not 10 pizzas. He gets food other than pizzas delivered and he has had as many as 14 pizzas in a single delivery. Though he didn’t say that delivery was one of the ones on the 10 delivery day.

I do give him the benefit of the doubt based on things he has said and written outside of the books. In fact before the Talisman was even published in 1984, there was an attack in Bangor, Maine, where a young gay man was beaten nearly to death by three homophobic teens and tossed off a bridge where he drowned. King…

But there are radio stations west of the Mississippi that have W call letters. Including several in Texas where they shot this movie, and in Oklahoma where the filmmakers were from. Though there are none in New Mexico.

“...the passive-aggressive tut-tuts from Mom made it feel like I was finally reading “adult” books.” 

If it’s your kid that you are introducing to these books, then the homophobic content can be used as a teaching moment. You can explain that homophobia was actually more openly expressed in the 1980s that it is today. And that a writer like King, who was trying to reflect contemporary times would include cases like…

“Santa Muerte walks away from a massacre at a small bar in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico with a small girl in her arms—I think we’ll come to learn that this was a flashback to when Maria and Santa Muerte met and eventually became whatever they are to each other.”

“Probably but why not just do what grocery stores do and let in so many people and then its one out one in.”

“... it’s a little odd that Eve is so completely convinced that Carolyn is Villanelle’s target.”

What really helps me is playing a Sleep or Deep Sleep playlist on Spotify. It’s just nice calm, relaxing music that fades into the background as white noise. Is it boring? Yes! That’s what you want. Spotify also has playlists where you can play ocean noises, rain and other nature sounds. Whatever it is that makes you…

This one’s not about me, but one of my friends discovered that not all kitchen cuts are created equal. And I’m not talking about the severity of the cut.

You’re “head-banging” story reminded me of a hysterical thing that I just missed seeing. This was probably back in the early 2000s, and I was going over to my friends’ place for dinner, and probably to watch a movie or something. Anyway when I got there, the two of them were laughing to hard to talk for quite some…

Wakanada is just north of Wankanda. They’re very similar, except Wakanada has universal healthcare, and the people are more polite. But they have very cold winters up there.

“It’s funny how large The Guardian looms in American left-of-center life.”

How does that make the death of a child “click bait”?

He is a human example of the Uncanny Valley.

I’m surprised you didn’t include “Dead to Me” and “The Kominsky Method.”

What are you talking about? Potsie was in Happy Days!

Actually they are out of all that stuff. Grey’s and several other medical based TV shows have actually donated all of their supplies to real hospitals and medical organizations due to the pandemic.

Yeah, I googled it just in case there was an actual town in NY with that name. But it’s definitely a typo.

“If you can’t tack an extra $5 on your food order, you shouldn’t be eating out.”
