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…

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…

The film “The Mandalorian and Grogu” is not what you might expect from either Star wars in general, or from what I’m guessing you may have heard in other reviews. I I’m not saying this is a perfect Star wars movie. I am also not saying it is the worst, I’ve seen that one. This…

Recently, over the past few months, I have started to receive a particular new kind of eMail spam. I usually block these by adding either their email address or their email domain to my spam filter. This particular variety, however, spoofs my own email address. I don’t really want to spam block my own eMail…

After some poor sleep last night, I was able to force myself up and out for a standard medical blood draw. Partial results are in, and generally look good. I assume there should be more results, and I assume they are going to be coming soon later. If there aren’t, then going to have to…
