You could explain existentialism to somebody, or you could just have them walk into a CVS where “more than this“ by Roxy Music is playing

The neighborhood my parents moved to in VA do this, they are in a sub divison and somehow the whole HoA seems to have agreed that the cluster of streets they live on is Halloween central. They shut down the streets and the homes set up desks and whatnot in their driveways.

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...
A casual Star Wars alien fella at the cantina, in a sun faded, reddish photo. Someone will be mad at me for not knowing who this is. Phil, a balding Caucasian man, poses a model of the garthok, an antagonist from the Coneheads movie.Phil, a balding caucasian man, points at some CG on a CRT computer monitor, as a younger man looks on. The screen shows a model of a dinosaur attacking a jeep, while there's an actual physical model of that event in the foreground for reference.an isolated shot of a star wars vehicle. Sorry, I don't know star wars lol

Tonight (Tues 9/29) & tomorrow (Weds 9/30) at 8pm ET, I'm livestreaming from home via facebook.com/7thinningstretch2020, taking song requests while you watch the Red Sox play their first two 2026 playoff games down in the Bronx. Raising money for GREATER BOSTON FOOD BANK and FOOD BANK FOR NEW YORK.
I'm wearing a Red Sox jersey and smiling while sitting in my living room playing an organ that's nearly the exact same model as the one at Fenway. There are a few pieces of old-school baseball memorabilia on top of the organ.

Apparently my employer changed the account type to archive of several old accounts, which caused the alerts for each of them to show up in my inbox. But I disabled alerts on all of those accounts and the bogus invites in the inbox went away.

@flexibits.com Is there something going on with delegation of GCal events on macOS? Suddenly between when I quit work earlier today and when I sat down just now hundreds of invites on other people's calendars showed in in Fantastical. I removed a bunch of them from /syncselect and some went away.

When there's a big blowout in MLB (like the Cubs beating the Brewers 17-3 yesterday), teams bring in position players to pitch, in order to not waste relief pitchers' arms on games that are pretty much settled. And it's frequently hilarious, with 35mph pitches that get crushed. 1/2

But there's a ton of complaining going on about how this somehow "bad baseball", "it ruins statistics" and "the fans don't want this", which I disagree with. My question is what's the alternative? A mercy rule? Forfeits? Those seem worse for baseball. 2/2

I watch baseball almost every day and I *love* it when there is a position player pitching. When my team is getting blown out it adds some fun to an otherwise miserable day, and when my team's on the up it's also kind of fun to watch them try to hit a 20mph ball.

The Pet Shop Boys song "Suburbia" was released on September 22, 1986. The sitcom ALF, whose theme song sounds almost identical, premiered on September 22, 1986. What does it mean?

The young people in the theater gasping at naked Harvey Keitel don’t understand that was just part of going to the movies in the ‘90s.

A cinema in Canada never received their Spider-Man Brand New Day posters so one of the employees drew his own and it is one of the greatest things I have ever seen
Hand drawn poster for spider-man brand new day featuring a lumpy, mis-shapen Spidey doing web shooter hand pose. Writing at the bottom reads “sorry! We never received the real posters! Sorry for any incoveniences!”

one underrated aspect of this famous meme of names is not just that the company did not have an MLB license so could not use actual players but that most of the names are actually just modifications of actual baseball and hockey players of the time

I just saw someone say the reason people love Backrooms is because it's tangible with real people filmed on real locations and this is definitely one of those No CGI is Really Just Invisible CGI things. This is from Mr. Wolf VFX's site who did the effects work for Backrooms.
