    London, Paris, Rome

    Rome is like a giant outdoor museum. Just go down to where all the core visitor stuff is at. Seriously. Go and walk and explore. See the Colosseum, the Parthenon, etc. And take note of all the random stuff along the way between the big sights. Eat at any of the patio restaurants. Take the...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I guess - spoilers - for EvilPOKES, so look out. With Episode VIII, Rian Johnson absolutely OBLITERATED Episode VII and the goodwill, future storylines and general "Hey, this is back on track!"-ness it fostered. I left VIII feeling entirely unfulfilled and with the realization there was...

    Since I'm back and a lot of active threads are about streaming - Battlestar Galactica

    Right. And that was ok to me - I just really enjoyed the story. Well, gotta remember the show originally ran from 2004-2009 before profanity became (more) acceptable on basic cable. Sci-Fi/SyFy had to stay accountable to its advertisers. I still contend this show would have been GOT-level...

    Just suspended my DirecTV account

    You put it much more succinctly than I did but that's what I was getting at as well. Once the big powers see the streamers as big-boy equals, they'll either buy them or align with them and shrink the market options, causing prices to go up over the macro. "Now you can get Hulu, Netflix and...

    Bad news for the near future of Spiderman in the MCU

    Recently re-watched all of TNG on Netflix and the Yar stuff was still fresh in my head. Also, she was hot. Also also... Star Trek Nemesis should have been a story about Yar's lovechild overthrowing the Romulan Senate and orchestrating some sort of terrorist attack on Starfleet Academy in San...

    Just suspended my DirecTV account

    Thanks! I know I don't need to lecture everyone on this as it's part of the basic supply/demand economy, but the cable/sat companies have grown large and bloated via their largess and, because of a lack of options, rates have been able to skyrocket until Internet speed and capacity became so...

    Bad news for the near future of Spiderman in the MCU

    At least, we'll get Tasha Yar back as a Romulan love child. Thank you, sir. Been ages.

    Just suspended my DirecTV account

    This just reminds me of Battlestar Galactica - "All of this has happened before and will happen again." Much like with phone carriers and cable companies in the 90s (Cox, basically), the little fragmentations will merge of die off, leaving a big two/three to raise the costs. DTV is essentially...

    Bad news for the near future of Spiderman in the MCU

    Apparently, there is a temporal distortion in the Rivals space-time continuum.

    Bad news for the near future of Spiderman in the MCU

    Not only that, but Marvel will need Spidey or lest leave the empire to frakkin' Captain Marvel.

    San Diego advice

    How was your trip? San Diego has become my annual heat break weekend trip since I moved. Love San Diego! Always hit a Padres game because Petco is a great park.
