So last night I was able to attend a collective Soul concert at The Mountain Winery. I had technically seen collective Soul live once before, back roughly 2009, around Mother’s Day Weekend. I know this because they brought their mother out on stage to say “hello”. However, because it was a radio station concert, there…

“Supergirl” (2026) is a movie you put on whilst at the bar, after the game is over, but still not late enough for you to go home. “Not great, not terrible”, in case you find yourself nostalgic for the HBO Chernobyl miniseries. The only connection to that level of disaster in this movie is some…

The film, “Toy Story 5” was enjoyable. For those of us surprised that there are now 5 Toy Story movies, I’ll remind you that there are currently 14 installments of “The Land Before Time”, and I did not feel like asking where the asteroid is during this film. My local feeder likes to display an…

The film, “Disclosure Day” clocks in at 2h 25m, and I found it reasonably paced, in Spielberg fashion. Also in Spielberg fashion was the ineptitude of government agents, at least on the ground and field level. The first time this happened, it brought me out of the movie. “Dude, how are these guys not seeing…

The film “The Amazing Digital Circus” was an accidental double feature today, because I had a glitch in the matrix and could not tell time. It took me a half an hour to go back out and ask the fuck was going on. “You’re at the right place, you’re just 2 hours early.” And that’s…

The film, “Masters of the Universe”, although 2 hours 13 minutes long, was decently well paced. It was a good mix of swords and spaceships, pastels and cell phones, 2026 and 1983. Be ready for guitar for music. There is a mid credit scene, and an end credit scene. To close out the movie, we…

On today’s episode of Repair Cafe, we have a plastic toolbox from the container store, whose front latch became unusable, threatening the usefulness of the entire endeavor. Replacement latches were mustard up, and then kindly set into place by a father_son team. At this point, I might be acting over my age in the sense…

The film, “Backrooms” was actually pretty decent. Based on the creepypasta story series, this movie roots itself in themes of being stuck, as in being moribund. You are given a glimpse of the sharp blurry edge between acceptance and choosing to change, and what making the wrong choice will get you. I counted 2 jump…

I know there’s no reference perspective here, but this is a family size coffee tin. I am currently using it to store candy, for example Skittles and chocolate. Since I also delabble glass jars for reuse, I thought I would get a little silly. Don’t worry, nobody is pregnant.

After some minor consideration, , I decided to get hands-on replacement mesh dots for my earbuds. It turns out that Amazon sells these, because of course they do. I picked up a set of pointy pointy tweezers to assist in putting them in place properly, because I didn’t have any and they should come in…
