He is clearly the worst contestant so far on the show; although Kariselle the Panda in the very next episode is a close second. I loved how one of the contestants got really excited when Kariselle booted him off.

That’s a cool story. I’m also curious what it is about punk rock that drives the musicians to become biologists. Milo is a research molecular biologist. Greg Graffin got his PhD in evolutionary biology. That can’t be a coincidence.

Can we stop adding Dwayne Johnson to every franchise?

It really makes perfect sense for the character, too.

you can’t sue people for being people

I got 10 minutes into Requiem before I turned it off. There was a lot jumping around, like “And then this happened, and then this happened, and then this happened,” with no character building whatsoever. The Alien bits weren’t even scary. Pass.

Kind of seems like if the Time Keepers were actually Kang, he’d want to maintain a Sacred Timeline in which he ends up on top.

I don’t agree at all. In the end, you have two sides competing for a power that nobody deserves. It’s made pretty clear that the Seventh Kavalry is bad early on, but the show also makes a compelling argument for not letting power fall into the hands of technocrats either. Also the show has two compelling female leads…

I love the “You sure know what you’re talking about...” Yes, sir. He knows more about it than you. BAM!

Twist: We’re laughing at ourselves.

Has Tesla re-imagined seatbelts yet?

Musk: “What if we strapped people in like they were on a rollercoaster? That would be hella safe”

You’re right, he can donate to whomever he wants. BUT, the people who are harmed by the policies set forth by the politicians he donated to also have to right to be angry with him. The money he makes from the FNAF franchise is going into a system that oppresses the people he claims to love. It’s 100% our right to call…

Getting older is gross, man. There’s a great bit in episode four of Hacks where Deborah Vance talks about what happens to women during menopause. It sounds terrifying.The thing is, we’re all going to be there at some point. I highly recommend reading Atul Gawande’s Being Mortal if you don’t want to sleep for a week.

Thank you for capturing exactly how I felt when I read this piece.

I found a foolproof method of keeping them away from my front door. Set up a bird feeder and keep it filled. You’ll only find parts of cicadas around. Birds come for the seeds, stay for the bug buffet.

Having grown up in Southern California and now living in Virginia, I can tell you that june bugs have nothing on cicadas. These bugs are EVERYWHERE and bigger. So much that it looks like there is a storm on weather radar. On the bright side, they are adorably stupid. Yes, it’s adorable. I saw one fly onto the sidewalk…

I’ve ... never had a problem with the app? The only streaming service that has given me a headache was Peacock and that was at launch. HBO Max has been the best bang for the buck. Netflix is filled with garbage these days, and I can’t justify paying for Hulu just to watch Killing Eve and What We Do in the Shadows.…

I don’t know if the fact that this guy didn’t get KO’d in the first round says something about the legitimacy of boxing or Mayweather’s skills. Somebody got paid off, right? How does a guy with a 0-1 record last 8 rounds with someone with a 50-0 record?

So I went in with low expectations, and it’s ... fine. It’s actually a lot tighter than the second film. The director also did a decent job mimicking Wan’s style. Plus, I didn’t realize John Noble was in the movie and that instantly elevated the film for me. His character’s introduction is great.

Take all the stars.
