I got a great sit/stand desk from Autonomous, and I change my work position frequently. I go from sitting to standing at least ten-twelve times a day. I definitely feel like my whole body is more engaged than the old days when I would just slouch in a giant cushy office chair for hours on end.

Is it possible that I’m the first to note that the “Cantwell Class” star destroyer design is an almost direct interpretation of one of the earliest Star Wars (aka New Hope) designs, created by Colin Cantwell, who just passed away fairly recently?

Thanks for the warning; I started it last night and even with the advance notice it hit pretty hard - I had to put my sweet old dog to sleep a few months ago; it was very clearly her time, she was crashing hard, but it still hurts. But the scene in the game didn’t feel gratuitous or manipulative.

It did make me think…

Boy, this really sounds like it’s implying that Bork’s nomination was rejected because his list of movie rentals leaked, doesn’t it?

I love that they added film grain to the cinematic scenes.

My instinct to run away as fast as possible recently served me well when I unknowingly ran over a yellowjacket nest with my lawn mower.

I would add “The Others”.

I’m sorry, don’t you mean “Pulverine”?

How can this article not include any of the weapons from 2003's “Armed and Dangerous”, which included the Land Shark Rifle (which fires a shark that swims through the ground and devours your enemies), the Topsy-turvy bomb, which turns the whole world upside down so your enemies fall off it, and the aptly-named…

Hearing LotR called a franchise is so depressing. Ugh. Nothing is safe from IP-ization.

That’s some expensive-looking fan fiction, that is!

He’ll always be Miles from Electric Dreams to me. RIP.

At least he didn’t call it “rightsizing”.

So wait, all these years we’ve been told it was inspired by a hamburger with a bite out of it and an olive on the side. Which is it?

USAA does as well.

If they haven’t already started talking to Rose Leslie for the role of Aloy, they need to get on that stat.

The TV remake of The Stand was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen on a screen.

I discovered this through a “Best of 2021" list somewhere; I was up super early because I was stressing about (waves hands wildly at all the things) and saw the description; I installed it and started it up and immediately felt almost a shiver of relaxation as it just washed over me. Love it.

I’ll be leaving it on - I don’t understand people who speed-run through games like this, though I won’t judge them. Really. I promise. But I’m enough of a purist that even the “infinite stash” bothers me because it’s just not realistic...
