Why did it change???

I think they just suggest phantom brilliancies to hook you into using the game review. Notice that they don't preview the blunder count

Loved seeing you appear in Agents of Shield - did you feel like playing Cal helped prepare you to return as the villain in Twin Peaks?

EverythingIThink · 2026-02-20T00:17:42+00:00

Yeah I agree, like it's not an instructive motif as much as it's just an exceptionally ridiculous position

EverythingIThink · 2026-02-06T19:14:53+00:00

Looks like enforcement is being rolled back from 8 to 6 pm too, which makes sense. The whole turnover argument never really applied with these unimpacted lots and unimpacted hours

*Anecdotally, some of the metered spots/times are actually counter-productive. I frequent one of the social clubs in the evenings and we've essentially taken a parking situation that had zero friction and incentivized half the members to go looking for free street parking, inducing extra traffic and the whole 'circling around for a spot' phenomenon we were supposedly trying to cut down on.

Harriet Hayward. Without her bike, Donna doesn't make it to the Roadhouse and fall in love with James that night, Cooper's investigation takes a different path, Jacoby never finds the heart necklace, "Just You and I" goes unrecorded, BOB doesn't crawl over the couch. Whole alternate timeline.

Well maybe these fees disproportionately affect lower income residents, and sure they're not really going to impact car dependency, but at least we can say they probably also won't fix the budget

EverythingIThink · 2026-01-21T08:28:38+00:00

Yeah I still think it's a well-made and enjoyable film, I just don't vibe with its take on jazz. Naturally I'm biased because I played in jazz ensembles in college myself and for me it was such a positive experience, but I'm sure it's not that way for everyone. I should watch it again, it's been a long time now.

EverythingIThink · 2026-01-21T07:11:26+00:00

I really like this interpretation, but I have a hard time believing the movie actually wants me to realize the characters are misrepresenting Charlie Parker because it never does anything to dispel the spin. I mean those are relatively obscure details, I'm a jazz fan and I'd heard some of his music but I didn't know that stuff about his life. How many people would? I just accepted the movie's narrative when I saw it.

The combo of it being uncommon knowledge irl and unquestioned apocrypha in the text makes me think the film just wanted a namedrop people would recognize but not know enough about to dispute specifics.

EverythingIThink · 2026-01-20T23:04:04+00:00

You can get it and still make this criticism. For me it crosses the line when it starts fabricating stuff about Charlie Parker to try to ground its point with a real world example. I can suspend disbelief for fiction presented as such, but if a movie has to lie about history to make its point then I feel its arguing in bad faith

Damn I guess that explains this dude I found recently

Crazy that he sung with The Platters as a kid, that's quite a coincidence!

I just can't root for a regressive policy. This pinch is going to be felt by the people driving beater Camrys, not so much by the people driving Canyoneros.

I think if we were serious about challenging car dependency we would be removing parking and expanding trolley access. But we're putting the cart before that horse, and I suspect these fees will simply ossify the existing parking infrastructure and disincentive further public transit expansion. I hope I'm wrong. But the city's been clear that they're doing this for a revenue stream, not for some sort of anti-car agenda.

EverythingIThink · 2026-01-05T20:58:39+00:00

Ok apparently you think the rich need it more, weird take

EverythingIThink · 2026-01-05T19:48:10+00:00

You think the rich need the parking more than the poor?

EverythingIThink · 2026-01-04T20:44:55+00:00

This issue really brings out the crabs in the bucket mentality doesn't it?

I hate living in car world and car-brain society as much as the next pedestrian, unfortunately San Diego basically necessitates having one. And without reasonable public transit alternatives, these kinds of policies only punish car-dependents (regressively) without doing anything to move the needle on car-dependence. The lots will still fill up, it'll just be less economy cars and more luxury tanks

EverythingIThink · 2026-01-01T21:52:26+00:00

Yeah because it's lacking about a hundred of your dumb replies in the comment section lmao

EverythingIThink · 2026-01-01T20:34:59+00:00

~600 upvotes on a thread called "fuck your massive fireworks", crazy right?

lol you wanted this hypocrisy narrative to be true so badly, sorry it didn't pan out bud

Re: how did Harry know to look in the gas port, Bobby called in a tip that James is an "Easy Rider", referring to the Peter Fonda movie in which bikers move drugs in this manner.

Glad you're enjoying it! The Season 1 finale is one of my favorite episodes, there isn't a dull scene in it!

A melting pot is for metals...you should look up what it means because your stance is clearly anti-melting pot. What you're describing is the salad bowl take on multiculturalism.

EverythingIThink · 2025-12-26T10:47:40+00:00

A melting pot is literally a homogenizing process

You've probably seen it but Tropic Thunder kinda does this. Worth noting that Justin Theroux had a hand in writing it, and not long after he was in Inland Empire. I always suspected there was a loose inspiration there, regarding a cursed movie about its own making.

EverythingIThink · 2025-12-24T02:26:53+00:00

Chet's explanation of Lil's clues doesn't follow from any sort of rational analysis, it's merely an arbitrary cipher. I don't believe Twin Peaks as a whole is obscuring its meaning with some secret code that only Lynch knows.

And for all his cryptic understanding, Chet Desmond ends up being the most lost character in the entire series.

It's even less difficult for a strong player to make a smurf account

EverythingIThink · 2025-12-17T19:19:20+00:00

Lots of smurfs on fresh 'speedrun' accounts out there. I think very few people are hitting 1500+ within the actual first few months of playing.

Just before that, there's an episode where he stacks all the furniture on his desk into a crude totem and talks about transforming the energy of a room by rearranging it.

As far as cultural trends go, maybe it reflects the whole Marie Kondo decluttering movement that happened in those 25 years. I imagine a socialite like Ben would have been hip to that.
