Tangential: I didn't realize this before, but Leonard Nimoy voiced Galvatron in Transformers: The Movie. Trippy http://tfwiki.net/wiki... - Victor Ganata

I'm at the opposite end of things -- too high cacao content, way more likely I'll get heartburn. Double if it isn't alkaline processed. - Jennifer Dittrich

Cacao! I'm consciously avoiding Hershey products as much as possible as my own form of protest over their business tactics. I'm sure they are suffering from my neglect. ;-P - Corinne L

Fair point! - Andrew C (see frenf.it)

I like imagining little gold beetles arguing about the value of currency. - joey - team everyone

Yes, well, it's a cute image until you get close enough to actually hear them talk, most of which is self-satisfied chortling and links to extremely dubious Youtube videos. - Andrew C (see frenf.it)

Luna-ticks. - joey - team everyone

LOL - Jennifer Dittrich

Wait a minute. His 18 year old son is now the head coach at any Ivy League school? I realize that there are many more important issues that I should be concerned about, but that one caught my eye. - COMPLICATED MR. NOODLE

Well, it sounds like he won't be involved with Minnesota State University in this new incarnation, anyway; he'll be working at his son's school. - COMPLICATED MR. NOODLE

"250 firefighters are on the scene, and initial reports suggest the collapse was owing to a gas explosion. The situation has escalated to a seven-alarm fire with flames spreading to up to three other buildings." - Andrew C (✔)

But what could bystanders do that would actually be helpful, besides staying out of the way? - Andrew C (✔)

This really can go with the #WhiteGenocide silliness from the past few days. - Anika

That's what hats are for! - Jennifer Dittrich

^ That. - John (bird whisperer)

Guess so! - Andrew C (✔)

"Once the world learned the identity of the officer who nearly killed Floyd, framed him for cocaine possession, and told lie after lie on the police report, it all made perfect sense. Bill Melendez is notorious in Detroit. In 2003, after a year-long joint investigation between the FBI and Detroit Police Department, Bill Melendez was indicted for corruption, falsifying police reports, and planting drugs/guns on suspects who had been illegally arrested. In the indictment, Melendez, nicknamed "Robocop" for his bodybuilding and excessive use of force, wasn't listed as a bit player, but as the ringleader and driving force behind the corruption. Putting their own lives at risk, scores of witnesses, including several African-American police officers testified against Melendez, but the case crumbled with jury nullification." - Andrew C (✔)

"Twelve years ago, long before he nearly killed Floyd Dent, Officer Melendez had already cost the city millions of dollars in settlements and wracked up more brutality complaints than any other officer in all of Detroit. In 1996, Melendez shot and killed Lou Adkins, an unarmed man, who witnesses said was on the ground and posed no harm when Melendez shot him, execution style, 11 times. The city of Detroit paid $1 million to Adkins's family in a wrongful-death suit, but Melendez kept his job. Complaint after complaint on Bill Melendez has been filed for illegally planting evidence." - Andrew C (✔)

ugh - Steve C, Team Marina

They strap fireworks to a b-boy's legs. It's pretty awesome. - Andrew C (✔)

"Sony Pictures has secured rights to the popular anime series “Robotech” and views the project as a potential film franchise. The studio hopes to move quickly into production on the live-action feature, with Gianni Nunnari and Mark Canton (“300,” “The Immortals”) producing and Michael Gordon (“300,” “GI Joe”) writing the script. The series centered on humanity’s use of robot technology to fend off alien invaders and has an “Independence Day” meets “Star Wars” vibe. It is seen as having the global appeal necessary to become a blockbuster property." - Andrew C (✔)

Wonder how they'll play off the Minmay-Kyle relationship. Or, for that matter, if they're even gonna go near Yellow Dancer. - Steven Perez

"In Cities: Skylines (read our review here), you can follow around the various NPCs who move into your city. However, when there's tens of thousands of citizens, and you're swamped with the tasks related to building and managing a metropolis, it can be hard to keep tabs on a single person's life for very long, and difficult to find them again later. I thought I'd fix this problem by creating a city in which only a single home could be built. Then I'd see who moved in and keep track of their lives. Here's what happened." - Andrew C (✔)

This one was fantastic and traumatic. - Andrew C (✔)

Trilogy? Hold, friend. I envision a 26-part epic. - Stephen Mack

http://www.amazon.com/Languag... — it's 207 pages. I guess that could be stretched to four movies :D - Victor Ganata

"“Thanks for the bell, Sylvia,” Esther said. “It’s just lovely. And it goes so well with the jar that Beth just got me.” “Oh, it was nothing,” Sylvia said. “It’s been a lovely evening.” It really had been a lovely evening. – The Bell Jar, I assume" - Andrew C (✔)

Well, isn't that how they ended up enslaved for so long? - team everyone

I unno, I'm probably never gonna read the other-authored prequels. - Andrew C (✔)

Haha, I was just being a smart ass...but admit I have read all of them because I have no shame or boundaries when it comes to Dune. - team everyone

THE SPICE (PAGES) MUST FLOW. - Jennifer Dittrich

There's not one single mention of Giles. Fail. - bentley

The comments also bring up Riley: "Actually, Riley Wasn't That Bad... *Riley is the human incarnation of the color beige *Remember that episode where he and Buffy got trapped in that sex room? *Probably not because it was a terrible episode, except when Giles sang *Riley is the worst " - Andrew C (✔)

"Recently I was able to try bungee jumping. It’s terrifying! Back when I was a teen I went skydiving, and while it’s QUITE A RUSH, bungee jumping was infinitely scarier. […] But regardless of everything that could go WRONG [with skydiving], at the end of the day you’re just along for the ride. You can pretty much go limp and close your eyes and you’ll still have skydived, and they’ll print out a little certificate using a Microsoft Word default template saying “Hey, you did it, good job. Way to be strapped to someone who actually did the thing.”" - Andrew C (✔)

"But with bungee jumping it’s your choice to jump. All the survival instincts are going nuts in your brain to NOT DO IT but you paid like 50 bucks and everyone is watching and OH GOD OH GOD. Basically it’s the privilege to give in to that little suicidal spark in all of us without all the hassle that comes with dying. " - Andrew C (✔)

WHOA. but, really, this is more like 70s 'Japanimation' in the style of "Star Blazers" and "Battle Of The Planets". - Big Joe Silenced

I actually haven't seen those, so my touchstone would be Robotech (Macross). - Andrew C (✔)
