In a normal world, this should be the biggest news story of the day by far.
Worth a read. Had to remind myself a few times through the article that I was not reading the new Dan Brown novel.

The Dolby was built specifically to host the Oscars.
This is going to hurt Hollywood (the actual neighborhood) quite badly.

and acid reflux! We had a citrus orchard growing up and I used to drink an insane amount of freshly squeezed orange juice and lemon. I had reflux all the time, I even had to get an endoscopy and take medication. Then I went to college, stopped with the citrus and… it went away.

I wish we lived in a world where this could be the biggest news of the day, as it should be.

Despite being marketed against mosquitoes, bug zappers mostly kill moths and other beneficial pollinators. Mosquitoes are not attracted to light.
That is why the box can only show a drawing of a mosquito, but it does not mention the word even once.

The original film had an aggressively unfunny side plot about the dentist being a womanizer who suddenly thinks he is gay and wants to kill himself as a result. The famous theme song from the movie and TV show (lyrics removed) is what they sing at his “funeral”, and talks about suicide not being so bad.
The movie and TV show have wildly different sensibilities.
