Alamo Drafthouse Goes Mobile, Getting Rid of Pen-and-Paper Food Orders to ‘Protect the Moviegoing Experience’ (EXCLUSIVE) Alamo Drafthouse is switching to mobile ordering for food and drinks to "protect the moviegoing experience."

I know that there are far more important things going on right now, but add this to the "this sucks" pile. Looks like I'll be canceling my Alamo Season Pass.

A simple reminder from Sam

Hamburger rice pie: the "crust" is made of ground beef in the filling is rice, tomato sauce, and grated cheese. The pie is in a glass pie dish and is sitting in front of a Black tea kettle with a picture of a cat on it.

Chocolate peanut butter pie: The crust is made from Oreos. Fulfilling shows a chocolate ganache with the letter pi made out of chocolate chips. The pie is sitting on a countertop in front of an instant pot.

Happy Pi Day! These are my go-to Pi Day pies: hamburger rice pie (A childhood favorite) And nobake chocolate peanut butter pie

I met a traveller in an antique land Who said 'Six vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert And on the pedestal these words appear My name is Ozymandias, King of Ants (oohs from his audience) Look on my feelers, termites, and despair I am the biggest ant you'll ever see The ants of old weren't half as bold and big And fierce as me'.

Though my mind always goes to the Monty Python version. . .

Ozymandias By Percy Bysshe Shelley I met a traveller from an antique land, Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand, Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed; And on the pedestal, these words appear: My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

The darkness will not last.
The sunlight will come again,
And when it does, it will be all the warmer.

These days, my mood vacillates between:

"There's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for."

- and -

"What strange new horrors await us today"

I'm not going to lie. I'm excited that this evening Shelley and I are taking our youngest to go see the new Dog Man movie from the great Dav Pilkey. The fact that our youngest is 24 years old is immaterial. #DogMan #DogManMovie #DavPilkey #CaptainUnderpantsCinematicUniverse

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

Imagine if like Al Qaeda could end US medical research. They’d be giddy at the damage and the media would rightfully report on it as a devastating attack on Americans.

If you missed it: this is the 2nd day in a row that US Federal health agencies are forbidden to provide any external communications, e.g. press releases, respond to emails, social media, update websites, etc. They can't even respond to say "sorry, we can't respond"
www.cnn.com/2025/01/21/h...

Right now, the executive class and the millionaire/billionaire class knows we are pissed at them. And they are going to use every tool at their disposal to propagandize us back into thinking other people are our enemies. Don't you dare let their message win. Stay angry at the right people.

Throwing sand in the gears of terrible machinery is also resisting.
