Have you watched Pushing Daisies? Lee Pace and Anna Friel as charming characters who love each other but can never touch.

Darth Vader kills top staff 14 times a day, and people wonder why all their bases have single point failures designed in.

I was confused by that as well, but apparently Ex Machina is considered to be a modern reinterpretation of The Tempest. I can see it, but it's not clear if that was the intent or it's just a similar structure.

There's also an online US states quiz from GeoGuessr. It's easier in that it gives you the names of the states, but harder in that you can't choose the order to fill them in.

Maps are the best! I picked up a big bag full of old National Geographic maps at a flea market and donated them to my kid's elementary school so the teachers could use them for student projects.

Yes! I'm also shocked that people try out for the show without being able to swim. That almost always comes up at some point.

I remember when The Amazing Race first premiered and I was astounded at how many of the contestants didn't know how to read a map.

Someone one yelled at me for posting a "spoiler" about the 1960s TV series The Prisoner in an online forum for discussion about that show.

No, he'd left by the time I saw it, but the leads I saw were amazing and the staging was phenomenal.

I went to the current production in London last year and it was the most powerful show I've ever seen. The chills that went through the audience were palpable.

I was similarly hoping for an announcement about The Dragon Prince, which really needs to be renewed for its third arc.

Roz Chast drew a cartoon defining the four food groups as regular, company, remorse, and silly. I've found those categories work really well.

Talyor Swift is also a significantly better businessperson than DJT. She has an enormous global following with huge brand value and has built a net worth of $1.6B without getting funded by her father, being the subject of scandals and lawsuits, or having declaring bankruptcy multiple times.

My results also included Friar Tuck from Robin Hood, Chien-Po from Mulan,and Jerry Gergich from Parks & Rec, so I guess the system pegs me as a jovial overweight nerd who wants to help people.

Anytime I pick up a dozen donuts for the family, I always get one to eat in the car so I can bring a dozen home.
