I have a severe physical disability and I love my 2014 Odyssey. It’s the most reliable vehicle that I have ever owned. I purchased the Odyssey new from a local dealer and then took it to a specialty dealer to install the VMI conversion. I’m lucky to live in a state where Medicaid covers the cost of vehicle

PAAAACKERS!

“Wait a minute, I haven’t read Tolkien in a week!”

This is sad news, but not terribly surprising. Netflix can’t seem to figure out how to promote shows that have a niche audience. I also wonder how the contractual arrangement with Netflix will affect the future of the show. I’ve heard that Netflix prohibits studios from shopping cancelled shows to other streaming

I have a lingering question about the IG bounty hunting droids. Do they work for unseen masters or are they in the biz strictly for themselves? And if it’s the latter, what’s their motivation? Do they need the credits for cool upgrades and droid porn?

I could make some lame joke about millennials, but I’m a better person than that. And while your experience may have been traumatic, it seems like you’re trying to turn your bad day into clickbait.

Kurtzman may not be my first choice, but I liked Discovery well enough and I want to see it continue. An experienced hand like his may give the show the stability it needs to give the writers room to grow, which could make the show really interesting. And I’m curious to see what other Trek-related projects he might

I'm jealous. I wish I could read Cloud Atlas again for the first time. I read it way back in 2005 and it's still one of my favorites.

I just picked up Ted Chiang's "Stories of Your Life and Others," mostly because I wanted to re-read the story that is the basis for the forthcoming movie "Arrival." It's such a cerebral piece and I'm curious to see how it will be adapted. Looking forward to reading the rest of the collection as well.

Great news! I'm glad some of the former cast will have guest roles, but I'm excited to see what the new guys can do. I also hope this means we'll get additional episodes beyond those that we fans Kickstarted.

Jesus, it's amazing he lived to write anything after The Tommyknockers.

When I read the book as a teenager (back in the 80s), the group sex scene seriously icked me out. I generally admire King, but what exactly was he thinking when he conjured up that scene? Was he trying to give the finger to Reagan-era morality scolds? Or was he just writing whatever came to him in a coke-fueled mania?

I backed the recent Rifftrax Kickstarter campaign for a hefty sum, which meant that I had the opportunity to write a joke for the reunion show. It was a great experience and the writing staff was incredibly helpful. I live in Minneapolis and had tickets to the show, so I was in the audience when Mike Nelson read my

The premiere date for season 6 is April 24, not April 10. Unless you're posting from some weird alternative universe where Donald Trump is a serious presidential contender.

Artangels is damn impressive because it has the cohesiveness and vision that most pop albums (hell, most albums in general) lack. Grimes crafted a lovely jewel of an album that gives this 42-year-old hope for the future of pop music.

I have the same disability as the guy mentioned in the article (also known as spinal muscular atrophy) and I feel incredibly sorry for him. At best, he’ll be incredibly disappointed when this bizarre publicity stunt falls apart. At worst, he’ll end up dead. Life with a disability certainly isn’t easy, but perhaps what

I almost fell out of my wheelchair when they referenced my hometown of Green Bay, Wisconsin. All that was missing was a hearty "PAAAAACKERS!" from Pam.

Minnesota Public Radio recently interviewed Maher about his "Flip a District" project, which is targeting MN Representative John Kline for defeat. While his goal may be admirable, Maher couldn't have sounded like a bigger asshole if he had tried. He freely admitted to not knowing anything about Kline's opponent and

On behalf of all wheelchair users, fuck that guy.

The weather in Minneapolis is downright tropical, so I've foresworn the outdoors for the following:
