Queens of the Dead - Flamboyant and campy as you'd expect a zombie outbreak at a drag show to be, I feel it drifts far enough into cartoon territory that all tension is dissolved. Still, the cast is charming and a bunch of jokes land hard.
Plus, zombie rats!
I just wish it were a better movie.

I'm playing with the new support hunters in MONSTER HUNTER WILDS and they have voice lines for when you carve a gem (the rarest of monster drops).
Griffin says, "Ah, that's a sweet find. Congrats!"
But the one that gave me a good chuckle was Nadia who said, "I didn't get one of those..."

Movie Mandates wraps up Happy Holidays month with a much-welcomed Hanukkah movie!
Unfortunately, EIGHT CRAZY NIGHTS is so bad I'd argue a marathon of Salo, Society, Audition, A Serbian Film, and both Nekromantic movies would be a much more pleasant sit.

Yes, YouTube. This section you added to the middle of my recommends no matter how many times I mark it as "Not Interested" and duplicates a more fulsome feature at the top of the page, is very valuable. Especially when it displays the same three videos.

Dear SDGE,
Stop sending me communications pointing out how much higher than average my energy bill is. I don't have control over your rates; you do. If you're bothered by the high amount I'm paying month to month, charge me less. I promise, I won't mind.
Love,
Andrew

I was just looking at my YouTube watch history and there are a LOT of commercials in there that I did NOT watch or even SEE in my recommends.
Is YouTube inserting shit into my history to try and game its own algorithm to recommend more of what it wants me to see?
Horrifically stupid, if so.

In recent months, I've seen a number of YouTube videos titled something along the lines of "I Will Delete This Video In 5 Days!"
I haven't watched any of them though so I have no idea what this trend's all about.
I know I should work on my apathy but... I just don't care to.

"Darn it, where the hell's the Monster Hunter showcase that was supposed to be today? The video isn't on the YouTube channel and nothing's streaming on Twitch. I better check their social media and see what excuse they...
Oh.

Oh shit. Yeah, that's understandable."
