It seemed like a good idea on paper, but not one I’d pay a subscription service for.

Yep.

I think they’re trying to get people into their store for their sale.

Search apartments.com or whatever for places 1-2 hour bike rides from work. Move there.

…not joking, I’m fortunate enough in that that’s what I’ve been doing. Biking/walking to work is the only way I get any exercise (even though I can work from home). In winter months/if it’s too cold or snowy I’ll use the stationary bikes our work building put in to entice people back from COVID.

I have to have a purpose to exercise (other than health I guess?) otherwise I won’t do it.

Fuck it, the libertarians won: I want to stop paying my taxes. /s (I want better tax spending/I know it’s nuanced)

Magicians say toddlers are also good at deciphering their tricks since they haven’t yet learned object permanency.

At least he got “his turn,” and did some good before he died. /s

I really can’t wait till he’s dead. That fucking face is so goddamn annoying.

Look, I didn’t think the book was all that great, and while I liked the vibes of the reboot I thought it was just OK, but as a horror fan I will trudge through so much shit for a morsel of goosebump moments that I’ll watch whatever garbage you slop up in front of me.

My expectations won’t be high; I’ll settle for at least one background Easter egg an episode.

Right next to your bladder, believe it or not.

In an effort to temper my expectations for Alien: Earth, I'm trying to remind myself of some of the weirdest/worst/oddest Alien lore decisions that were revealed in official Alien universe installments, including:

Any others? I seem to recall there being a humanoid Alien queen, but iirc she was just a nightmare vision.

i recently learned you're not supposed to run a microwave with nothing in it/it can fry itself broken.

but i want to heat up a plate to help keep the pancakes i put on it warm like they do in diners. putting just a plate in my microwave causes it to start freaking out 'cause i guess there's not enough stuff in there to absorb the energy(? this is what google tells me).

are the diners just putting the plates on a burner on low? that feels wrong.
