Your work here has been stellar, Cecilia. That article you wrote about the women of Atari in the 70s was the only thing I’ve ever seen on kinja that was as fun to read as Joanna Rothkopf’s essay on wearing a tail for a week. (I really enjoyed your stories about the Gamestop and the strip mall, too, more recently.) You…

It’s a good show. It gets very silly, and never takes itself too seriously. If you find yourself complaining that super hero stories never take risks and always follow the same boring formula, LoT might be a good fit for you.

I came for Victor Garber. I stayed for Wentworth Miller and Brandon Routh. Once all three are gone, that’s a wrap for me and Legends of Tomorrow. There’s no one left that I’m willing to spend 42 minutes on. It was sure a cheap ticket for Garber, Miller, and Routh, though.

You know Auschwitz has a twitter account now, so that joke is far less absurd than it should be.

People have been cheering for corporations forever. What do you think professional sports teams are?

My instinctive reaction to that picture was, “wow, they all still look young!”

“Kyodo News adds that the voice actors were allegedly contractually obligated to live at Maki’s apartment.”

Rough week for Harlock.

I love Amazon. I live in a very dangerous city. I’ve seen three different fights break out at stores in the last six months. So far no one has pulled a gun, but guns get pulled all the time here. Amazon is by far the safest way to shop, and I’m extremely grateful for their existence.

It wasn’t just the meme. It was her. She was so insanely smug, every second she was ever on camera, just like Biden. And when people are already thinking you might be kind of cop-like, being a condescending asshole, just like every cop they’ve ever dealt with, goes a long way to confirm those fears. Combine that with…

I don’t know anyone under 70 who gives a shit about the Oscars. This isn’t 1980. Getting an Oscar nomination (or even winning) no longer turns your movie into an automatic household name.

I’ll sit patiently through the gifs that show up unsolicited on my twitter feed. That’s as close to 3.5 hours as I have for Martin Scorsese these days.

The basic shape of it? Sure. But that model he’s building isn’t basic. Go pause and look at it. It’s a perfect copy, right down to windows and minute details. That’s not a model you could make from just seeing that video clip. It’s the model of someone who, for whatever reason, knows that structure.

My husband does RC stuff. The most basic rule of drones is that you absolutely do not want any drone you can afford.

I have a wireless Switch controller from a company called Dino that I ordered on Amazon, and it has been great. I’ve been using it about six months now. It was only $25.

That’s crazy. So I guess Lube Man is Petey, despite the fact that it’s not the same actor wearing the Lube Man suit. It seems like the only answer there’s time for, at this point.

I was thinking the thing crashing from space had to be one of Veidt’s old tachyon satellites, and that Trieu wanted it for her time device, but I can definitely see the argument for it being the statue. I’ve never liked my theory because it depends on Trieu not being able to make her own tachyon generator, and I don’t…

I keep thinking, well, it’s HBO, and Lindelof has something like carte blanche at this point, so the final episodes can each be two hours long if they need to be. I will certainly be surprised if they can wrap this all up in just two hours.

Yeah, my first thought was Topher, too. Cal surprised me. But I’d also bet money that the kid is Manhattan too. Everyone seems to forget how much he liked to divide himself into different beings, doing different things.

Ok, if you didn’t think “I bet that statue is Veidt.” the first time we saw it, I don’t know how to help you, and I definitely would not hire you to work at my detective agency. Especially when Trieu declares “He IS old!” You think the smartest woman in the world doesn’t know what tense she’s using when she speaks?
