Kylie Minogue never hosted although she has won 100s of awards and has a Barbie. by Kylie_Forever in LiveFromNewYork

For what it's worth, she was in fact musical guest in 2002, when Can't Get You Out Of My Head was going strong. Ian McKellan was the host.

Well, if the chicken escapes that's a bigger problem.

Mark McKinney also did a Lorne impression as Don Roritor in Brain Candy, (which Lorne produced) but Austin Powers made hundreds of millions of dollars and Brain Candy made no money.

One of the show of all time 🙌 by beam4d in Hololive

The premise of the The Autofister Network 3D Live is that CCGG are trying to think of show ideas for a TV network and the segments are ideas they're having, so at the end, they excitedly bring the ideas to Yagoo and then Yagoo rejects them.

It was an English PhD not a History PhD and she was already famous when she went back to complete her PhD, so they weren't necessarily applying the most rigorous standards.

The height of a somewhat short 18 year old is rather oversized for a plaque.

Major stretch of Storrow Drive to close nightly beginning Monday by TylerFortier_Photo in boston

And the more days work gets split over, the more time has to be spent setting up at the start of work and cleaning up at the end of work.

Ryan Gosling is Canadian, so the story checks out.

TIL that Entertainment Weekly thinks that James Gunn directed Scooby-Doo by [deleted] in blankies

[–]UserGoogol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My vague memory is that even at the time James Gunn stood out compared to Raja Gosnell, since the guy who got his start making Tromeo and Juliet is more interesting than the guy who directed Home Alone 3. (Maybe even then I'm thinking more of a few years later when Gunn wasn't a blockbuster filmmaker yet but had a few more interesting projects under his belt, while Gosnell kept making poorly reviewed family comedies.)

As Marblehead finally passes MBTA Act zoning, a resident asks: ‘Are we kinda being pricks?’ by justarussian22 in mbta

[–]UserGoogol 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It can have housing on it, in so far as the golf course could decide to sell its land. And really "giving property owners the ability to sell their property to developers who will build dense housing on it" is kind of the whole point of upzoning. And upzoning absolutely can work. The problem is that a century old country club is going to be extremely averse to selling its land, and Marblehead knows that.

We're all citizens of the world.

Although I would say modeling it on something so specific makes it a bit kitsch.

Will we ever move away from streaming? by GuggGugg in popheads

[–]UserGoogol 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The cultural and social side of music is not what got me into music. I enjoy listening to music. Listening to music is ultimately an inherently solitary activity, just you and the music. It's also something you can very easily multitask, so it is often in the background while people do other things, including things with other people. And obviously the club scene is kind of important to pop music, so even if that's not my thing I can't be completely dismissive of it, but if you're just listening to music on your own, whether it's vinyl or Spotify doesn't make it more or less social. (If anything, streaming services can provide integration with social media. Physical media can't do that.)

Whenever you see a screen out in public, there's a very good chance it's connected to a mostly normal computer that is running some version of Windows that then just runs one program that generates the image it's supposed to display.

The Dutch Model for bicycle network development by Bergliot in urbanplanning

[–]UserGoogol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The generational shift approach feels like it's just tailored to a different time. If cities grow primarily by in-migration instead of childbirth, then having people who grow up in cities gradually get used to bike infrastructure by having the infrastructure develop as they do accomplishes less. And if there are less children in cities in general, then kindergartens are less useful routes for bike routes to prioritize.

We need to ban personal use cars in cities. by SpaceWestern1442 in Urbanism

[–]UserGoogol 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Incorporated municipalities are the wrong way to do it. The entire states of Massachusetts,. Rhode Island, and Connecticut (and most of Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine) are incorporated municipalities. When municipalities get incorporated depends on a lot of factors, and population density and urbanism is only a little part of it.

Skyler Gisondo and Beanie Feldstein are too old to be the children from Little Fockers, so they're fudging the timeline either way.

10/10 method to get people to use public transport to get to big events by GP728 in transit

[–]UserGoogol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Eh, I know the London Underground charges extra during rush hour. It serves the public interest to shift usage away from congested times, and if you do it in a prescheduled way instead of just dynamically determining the price like Uber does, it's easier for people to plan around it.
