New releases (Trolls, Invisible Man, Emma, etc...) have all been $19.99 for rental.

I like going to the theater. I’m an A-List member of AMC, so ~$25 a month for up to 3 movies a week, and with a nice AMC theater with reserved recliner seats about a mile from my house it gives me a reason to get out of the house and go for a walk and see a movie. Mostly I’ll just pick a movie to see each weekend,…

Oof, looks like cut-scenes from a Tales game, but not, like, a recent one.

Speaking of Blank Check... I live in Denver and was contacted a bunch of years ago by Brian Bonsall on a dating site. (Or maybe it was someone only pretending to be Brian Bonsall? Seemed like a pretty deep cut to pretend to be the kid who played the Cousin Oliver of Family Ties....) In any case, it was after his…

I dunno, I thought the Moon 14 Mesozoic Ranch Dinosaur BBQ segment was one of the funniest host segments of the show, original or reboot, and I grew up in the Twin Cities and am old enough that I caught a couple of the original local episodes back in the day. But I’m a Joel fan and while Mike was fine, I don’t think I…

“None of these natural remedies below should be taken without consulting a doctor or somebody who is not a doctor.” 

If it included codes to download the songs, I’d consider it. As is, my hearing is sort of crap so I’m no audiophile and get nothing from listening to vinyl so have no desire to buy a format that requires me to get up and flip a record over to listen to it.

Yeah, they’re pulling plot points wholesale from POI now; Caleb killing his partner is the exact same as Stanton shooting Reese. I expect to find out the Caleb’s partner isn’t actually dead and will come back at some point. It makes me regret and appreciate PoI ending at the same time. I loved that show so much and I…

He’s not talking about drinking or injecting bleach into your veins. God, the Trump Derangement Syndrome around here is rampant. He’s talking about bleach enemas! Perfectly safe! I just did it myself and now I still don’t have covid-19! Just massive bleeding from the rectum. Plus it apparently cured my autism.

Sorry, but the fraction of their fortunes that billionaires give as a cover for their unrestricted rapaciousness does not make them good people. They keep giving yet somehow they keep getting richer and richer while the middle class and poor keep getting poorer. Thank them for the crumbs they allow to fall to you. Here…

But has he used any of his money to lobby for lower taxes or kickbacks to open Amazon’s second HQ someplace? (Hint: yes, he has.) Sure, if you ignore all the ways he has actively tried to reduce his tax burden, then yeah, he has no responsibility to step up where the government fails due to his efforts to defund said…

I mean, yeah, I don’t find the accusation to be particularly strong. I mean, like most accusations of this nature, there aren’t any witnesses. Of all the reasons I really hoped Biden wouldn’t be the nominee, there were at least a dozen that were enough to push me to another candidate before that came along. That it…

I was already an adult when FF7 came out. My first experience of Final Fantasy was FFIII on SNES (I still have the cart, though I expect the backup battery died years ago) and FFVI remains my favorite game in the franchise. Partly because VI is just awesome, partly because it was my first exposure to it. My brother…

I’m not sure I understand the tone of this article, particularly on a tech blog.

The explanation is bound to be disappointing. Mireille is my name and I’ve been a fan of She-Hulk since I first encountered her, which would have been around the time she joined the FF after Ben stayed in Beyonder World after the original Secret Wars.
I know Mireille is an unusual name outside France, and Mireille…

Joe Biden, with a history of touchy-feely interactions with women that certainly appear to make many women uncomfortable, is an entirely different sort of accusation than the birthers or comet ping pong idiots. Those are obviously outlandish and arguably motivated by racism and misogyny. I’m skeptical of the assault…

Except rolling back environmental regulations... that even the industries they’re supposed to help don’t seem to want. Seriously, who’s going to retrofit a factory to make incandescent light bulbs just to own the libs? And recently, reducing restrictions on mercury emissions. And fuel efficiency... It’s the opposite…

I really liked their solo albums... The first 3 at least, I just looked up and saw they released 2 more after Eroica that I was never aware of. 

Nate and Jeremiah are kind of adorable. They’re kind of fake on the show, but in a way that seems like they’re aware that it’s “reality” TV and don’t appear to be truly trying to convince viewers that the show is their real life.
I happened to catch it because I was recording the return of Trading Spaces and would get…
