I’ll start with “Outland”. It’s about a crotchety Sheriff/Marshall investigating crimes on a mining colony on one of Jupiter’s moons, and the sidekick doctor that helps him solve them. The original film had a very “Alien” universe feel.

Pitch meeting: True Detctive meets Alien. Each season = one mystery.

I think I counted like maybe two or three programs I’d watch on this list. Probably not enough to get me to subscribe anytime soon. Hoping the “Little House” adaptation is realistic.

Trying to remember the last time I wanted to watch anything on Peacock. “Poker Face” is the only series I know of that has any buzz. I guess people subscribe for sports coverage? It’s not an Olympic year yet.

If you think this is a stupid idea, I suggest you write your council person.

The fees on my water bill are already over $100 per month. Maybe if we weren’t paying to build multimillion dollar pylons for I-35’s non existent parkland (that we also can’t afford to build or maintain) we wouldn’t have to come up with more new fees.

I’ve got grubs in my vegetable garden. I looked into spraying nematodes to kill them, but I’m worried about it harming other bugs like butterflies, bees, and fireflies. Anyone have any experience with this? I don’t want to do more harm than good.

I know that some people eat celery with hummus. Or put pimento cheese or peanut butter on it. Are there any other foods that you think go well with celery? I’ve got some celery in my fridge that I’m trying to eat up.

Posting the boingboing link because the illustration is gold.

Here’s the link to the Wired story:

Apps like Bluesky allow you to create a list of block words for anything you don’t want to see. Is there already a feature request logged for this? I wouldn’t mind seeing a way to mass block the following:

• word or phrase in title (like kardashian)
• word in link source (like dailymail)
• word in sublemmy (like meme)
• word in tag (like #sports)

I dunno if it would significantly slow down app rendering of the feed, or if this kind of blocking would have to be a feature request for the server side instead.

Thanks for your time.

Just what we need. More consolidation. 🙄
