Why do we need Bond when we had like 12 seasons of Archer
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

The only problem with these is... If all the animals are sapient, dairy products seem awkward
Friar Alder served up cheese and beechnut bake garnished with hotroot sauce, fennel, hazelnut, young dandelion, and scallion salad, arrowhead bread, and strawberry flan.

Over the past few years, I've frequently criticized Brian Montague for living in North Vancouver. Today I'd like to formally issue an apology.
It turns out he actually lives in Kelowna.

In the kitchens, Friar Chondrus was at their wits' end. The Foremole and his team had decided to make the biggest meadowcream pudding ever seen in Mossflower country. Flour, fruit, honey and cream everywhere!

"Celery and onion flan" is more than a little disconcerting
There was steaming hot onion and leek soup with brown wheat bread, followed by celery and onion flan. This was followed by a hefty honeyed plumcake topped with chestnut sauce. Hot mint an' comfrey tea was served, along with pale summer cider.

PWHL Vancouver have unveiled their inaugural season jerseys, and they’re slick.
Sticking to the same model as the Season 1 PWHL jerseys.

Had to listen to this book on a drive to/from Pemberton and it's terrible. Even at 2 am I could point out how many things were blatantly wrong
"Sapiens" is so normal for the first 70,000 years of human history but then goes absolutely buckwild as soon as it gets to colonialism

Inspired by a post I just saw in which someone admitted they hadn’t seen a single episode of Friends nor the film Love Actually… what cultural hole do you have that’s a bit weird for your generation?

That's like one eighth of what capeslop costs per movie and it's easily eight times better
if you're a person who doesn't see the unalloyed good in Warner Bros spending $150 million on a loose Pynchon adaptation by Paul Thomas Anderson, we simply do not occupy the same reality
