I really like taking SEPTA. Admittedly I almost exclusively take the bus and rarely the train, and the train is pretty obviously where most of the unpleasant experiences happen, but sitting on the 9 or 27 and reading or dozing off is definitely preferable to sitting in traffic on 76 and driving around looking for parking in the city.

A lot.

The only ones that look anywhere close to passable are the Cubs and Brewers. And those still look bad, just not "what the fuck were they thinking?" bad.

There HAVE to have been some people in the design pipeline who were just thinking "Oh man they're actually letting us get away with this!?" the whole time

15189530, seared into my brain like my childhood phone number.

I don't love most Lwaxana episodes, but that one and Half a Life are wonderful.

God damn right I'll do Picard.

It's * exactly * how reference apps with in-app purchases should work. You can pay a la carte for specific lists of recipes, or pay more (once) for everything forever. It's a really good app with a fun design. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Yeah, that just never seems to work for long. I currently have it set to 35-45, and it's showing me 20-somethings. And I live in a huge city, so it's not like it's running out of people in my age range to show me.

My favorite example of this is from The Chase, where they discover the origin of all humanoid species in the galaxy, probably the most important discovery made in the history of Starfleet, and it's never mentioned again.

In my experience, it doesn't matter what you set your age or distance range to in Tinder, because you're going to get people 10 years older or younger and a hundred miles farther away than you specify anyway.

I use the Control D private DNS, which performs similar functions to a pi-hole, but I think is easier to set up.
