This is the only Marvel movie I saw since the first Avengers movie (I had only seen Iron Man 1 and 2 and I think one of the Captain America movies-maybe the first one?—before that). I just assumed this was a silly side-quest movie, which honestly made it more accessible to me because I was so outside of the lore. I…

I cant help but imagine TikTok is about to get offers from some right-wing groups who will use this to continue their marketing themselves as both pro-America (we’re rescuing you form Chinese spying) and defenders of free speech (we won’t censor you like they did). The upside for TikTok would be, essentially, what…

Thanks. I hope so. I recall the episode I saw was cowboy and/or poker themed? I just remember feeling like it was a show imitating itself.

I agree. And while I wouldn’t want to spend 18 minutes in prison, 18 months is not as long as I expected.

Maybe I’ll actually watch the Yahoo season this time. Kinda weird how much I enjoyed the show and gave up on it after one episode into that season.

That “and/or” thing is a tough one. If I were being tried for criminal charges, I’d certainly want the prosecution to have to be specific in the charges they brought. This makes it sound like the prosecution is saying that her guilt is a foregone conclusion regardless of the specifics. It makes sense from a laymen’s…

I think this is an interesting question. For my part (that no one asked for), I can’t help but think that synthesizing the data - internalizing information and finding its hidden connections, is a very creative and very human work. I’m sure there are AI models that could help sift out the larger, more obvious chunks,…

Twitter is probably too powerful a tool for humanity to wield, and long reads don’t make my brain feel like I binged intellectual junk food all day, so I vote Pocket/Read It Later.

I would welcome this, if only so I can regret ordering breakfast for dinner without making my family do it, too. I expect it will taste great and I will feel sick about three bites before my plate is empty.

Glad to see Mythical Kitchen getting some heat now. Its a really fun channel.

I definitely watched to see how he’d do an what the show would feel like. I thought the cold open was a little hard to take in because it feels so true, so I respect that they got me to laugh as much as they did. The monologue went about how you’d expect it—a nervous standup in a potentially hostile room who wants to…

The ones around me often have a drive-through code to get a breakfast sandwich for $1.50. I refuse to pre-order fast food since the fries especially lose their luster after about 10 minutes (ok, longer if I’m pretty hungry).

I couldn’t help comparing Rosa’s to Del Taco a bit at first. I’m less inclined to do that now, but I think it was just good meat and good cheese.

Yeah. My area has some good local spots too, which I left out for the sake of something approaching a 1-to-1 with other fast food. I’ve got 2 Taco Bells near me--one that’s kinda nice but in a less affluent area and one that’s less nice in a more affluent area. If I were the type to draw conclusions from small sample…

At my local, at least, it looks like they’ve ditched the normal Taco Salad. There are a few promising items on the new menu, but cutting the classics seems really dumb to me. I’m hoping we’ll see a discounted “classics” menu come out in the near future.

Del Taco has smaller regular tacos, but they taste good. And I prefer their hot sauces to Taco Bell’s. Around high school, there was as Del Taco one town over from where I grew up in California, so we’d usually hit Del Taco for lunch when my friend and I were in town because it was cheap and tasty. I’d get 5 tacos and…

I think what we’re losing is that vocal crack (and some extra noise when Usher first started singing) reinforces that the vocals were actually live (something that’s been debated from the performance through to now). I wonder if it bothered her at all or not. When I hear her singing voice, it sounds to me like like…

Check out what Cody Fry has to say about it all -- it’s on his Instagram and in Rolling Stone right now. Basically it sounds like everyone says they’re for the artists, but no one is asking the artists what they think.

How long before they just start releasing remasters to big theater runs like they did with Star Wars in the 90s? Why bother remaking a great movie when you can just shine up a classic and re-promote it?

Didn’t I read this article about 6 months ago on here, or am I misremembering?
