There’s a mild sadness that I won’t be able to foster a childhood love of wacky robot comedy, Ally Sheedy, and Michael McKean in my kids in quite the same way as my siblings and I experienced it, but it isn’t worth the brownface. The “Short Circuit” series gotta go.

2025-03-14 09:10:07 +0000 UTCChances are you're getting the wind from here in Ohio. We have a few wind farms. I believe we sale that energy to other states. To answer Nate's question about Marvel. Some books are starting to cut back on the violence a bit. Invincible helped to show you can go different routes. It makes more sense to have squirrel girl trying to de-esculate rather then just unleash her squirrel army. Even books like Punisher are more story driven these days. Still violent. But a lot less toned down. Deadpool is just over the top. If you want a comic pallet cleanser may I suggest Invincible. Either the book or the animated show. It starts off like it's going to be this violent, gory cartoon. It is, but Robert Kirk (Walking Dead) flips a few scripts. I don't want to spoil, but eventually he learns you don't have punch everything to win.

But yea it's shit, go watch Madoka Magica a Rebellion instead

2025-03-04 08:56:12 +0000 UTCOur kid went through a Mythbusters phase, and we thought we’d show him the original Indiana Jones. I mean, it starts with the boulder scene, and that’s cool, right? Oh no. Oh no no no, oh god, this has not aged well at all, let’s just put Mythbusters back on.
