I skipped For All Mankind, mostly because of the middling reviews at this site, but decided to give it a go late last year. Watched 2 episodes, wife said Pass, I can’t take the mopey, mumbling alpha male BS, so we dropped it. A friend said ep3 was the gamechanger, so one night I fired it up, and essentially pinged to…

Isn’t that the case with ALL EVs, due to the maximum “top off” level for batteries?

I’m honestly shocked Musk hasn’t copyrighted his DNA and sued the mothers and his progeny for infringement.

Even in Austin, people on NextDoor regularly wish death upon cyclists and claim to try running them off the road. It’s just a fact of our society.

I just think of the time we were replacing our ‘02 Camry with a ‘14 Highlander. While my wife was test driving the Highlander another salesperson saw me checking out the FT86 in the showroom. We chatted about it a bit but I expressed in no uncertain terms I was NOT shopping.

That’s a $3,500 car and no market conditions will convince me otherwise. 

Maybe this just happens to people in big, busy cities, but don’t go agro on someone who you think is leaving but is actually just retrieving something from their car. Ran back to get a mask because the customer service line was bunched up like sardines, and dudebro who lurked me started screaming that I HAD to leave…

To be fair, he was really good in Rush (although Daniel “Baron Zemo” Bruhl was better), and he didn’t really “find” Thor until Ragnarok. To that point Thor was a boring Lord of the Rings pastiche, laying the blame squarely at the feet of Kenneth Branagh.

They definitely ran out of gas toward the end, likely more a result of Rob Crowe’s increasingly troubling mental illness and Zac Smith’s reunion with 2 Mile Pilot, but damn if those first few records aren’t a master class in atmosphere. It’s the sparseness of the arrangements and the coldness of the drum machine.…

I just assume anyone who’s still a member of a Baptist church is probably a terrible person. You’re either an angry racist who secretly believes Jesus was a pussy or you’re so fearful of a life without Biblical justifications for your bigotry that you put up with those angry racists.

“Free Speech Absolutist.”

So Margo was named director of NASA after Ellen resigned, not just JSC?

Austin Bergstrom International is a dry heaving disaster of an airport these days, but the abundance of local restaurants in the terminal almost makes it worth it.

So people are having trouble making the $1,200 monthly payments on their $85,000 F350s (which includes about 75% of the principal from the F150 they traded in on it)?

My MIL told me if we ever get an EV, we’re out of the will. She wasn’t joking.

Nah. It goes all the way back to the OT.

The Book of Boba Fett made some baffling character choices, but at least the basic story made sense. Obi Wan Kenobi is another pile of bantha poodoo. I feel pretty confident in my take that it’s the worst written pile to come out of Disney-era Star Wars so far, and that includes The Rise of Skywalker. I mean, when an…

I have by the grace of some god never met another human who uses that word in that way, but heaven help me if I ever do.

I’ve eaten all over the world and have never eaten as well, or as much variety, as in New Orleans. 

Yeah, my 8-year old daughter was bouncing throughout. I truthfully have not seen either of the Jurassic World movies so I had no idea what was going on with the subplots, but she seemed to be able to make sense of it. Look, it was an opportunity to go see a “scary, grown up movie” with my youngest kid, and that was…
