I went to see Thunderbolts* yesterday, didn't buy online or anything like that, just walked straight up to the counter bought tickets, drinks and popcorn, then walked into the theatre.
There was no one else around, maybe 15 people in the whole screening. I don't understand how the cinemas stay open when they are this dead.
I remember 10 years ago the line for just getting into the theatre for the latest Marvell movie would wrap around the building and that was after buying your tickets.
It's been a long time since I was in a sold out theatre.

This is the kind of thing I could use in my home office, there's not enough space for a permanent deck but I could make space temporarily and then put it away afterwards, would be perfect.
The other used case I've seen from people, though rare, is to take records hunting to ensure what they're buying is good quality. I'd question their success in getting sellers to deal with them faffing about like that though.
This does bring awareness of the scam too though.
I guess it's just a double edged sword.
Yes, roast chicken, usually beef though.

I'm happy he gets to take it, you guys in the US have it rough with workers rights. I'd say take the maximum you can and enjoy the time, we're not put on this earth to generate profit.
Be the change you want to see and make sure you brag to everyone about how great it is when you get back, maybe they'll start to think differently.
Not just Canada, there's similar stories for a lot of nationalities, every country should be putting out warnings.
The US has lost it's mind.
Couple the immigration issues with the fact that planes keep falling out of the sky in their air space due to air traffic control being gutted and even flying to Canada starts becoming dangerous too.
I'll be avoiding the whole of North America for the foreseeable future, it's just not safe.
I honestly thought it was a straight to streaming movie, had no idea it was in the cinema.
The marketing has been awful.
This is what I was saying to someone a couple of weeks ago when Musk was talking about liberating the UK.
They don't need to invade us, they're already here.
I'd find this useful, it would be nice to sometimes filter out the onslaught of doom to preserve my mental health.
Log splitter?
I believe that if the president is incapacitated in any way the Vice President becomes Acting President. I guess they could stay in that role until the end of the term but if expect they'd use their new power in some fashion to make it more permanent.
I've thought about doing this myself but my GMail account is so ingrained in everything I don't think I'd be able to untangle the mess.
Are there any big issues you see coming up with doing this, long standing accounts not letting you change email, etc?
Do you plan on keeping the old account around for a period to catch any services you might have forgotten about?
Be interesting to see a follow-up once you're done to see what kind of pain it causes.
