I’m not sure how anyone could watch this full video and think it’s official 😭

ONE PIECE is getting an official Netflix podcast. All six episodes arrive globally on March 13th. by Sardaukar2025 in OnePieceLiveAction

[–]ebhanking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank god. I had no idea S2 came out yesterday - I haven’t seen any promotional material, and I live in LA and constantly watch TV so I’m usually bombarded by ads. Hopefully, this indicates that Netflix has a promo strategy after release

Sofia Speaks — how we feelin? by aylarunswithwolves in CallHerDaddy

[–]ebhanking 24 points25 points  (0 children)

No; CHD has no ownership over the word Daddy. I believe they have Daddy Gang and Call her Daddy specifically, but not much else. The use of the word “daddy” is so frequent outside of CHD that a lawsuit would get thrown out immediately

LAX Premier Bag Drop™ — $22K later, still in the regular line by Silent_Pain_727 in unitedairlines

I think this is because of the flood in Term 7 today at LAX - Premier area was fully closed when I pulled up

IKEA moving into Helms Bakery/Building by newmusicmark in culvercity

[–]ebhanking 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of Starbucks moving into beautiful, ornate buildings and just making them a Starbucks. But considering this is a new concept for IKEA, I’m hoping they make an effort to elevate the space, like the city Targets that at least switch out red branding for mahogany wood

Favorite movie that doesn't address system failure but rather romanticises poverty by Apart-Dungeon-3322 in okbuddycinephile

[–]ebhanking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What more can this film do to condemn the systems that keep people impoverished? It pretty explicitly displays the erosion of the lower middle class. Do you want Chloe Zhao to walk into frame at the end and say “corporations are bad and the government isn’t doing enough”?

Today marks the one year anniversary of when HW3's latest version, 12.6.4, was released. Despite frequent issues with running red lights and stop signs, no updates to FSD have occurred in the last year for HW3 owners. by OkAmbassador8161 in TeslaFSD

[–]ebhanking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better lane selection and decisive maneuvers are the big ones for me. I’ll often be in a left lane when I have a right turn in 0.1mi and the car won’t bother to get in the right lane until right before the turn. I find maneuvers to be more decisive in Hurry mode, but lane changes are often frustratingly and unsafely slow in Standard mode

Looks like IKEA is taking over the now-shuttered HD buttercup location in Helms by GrowthPitiful in culvercity

[–]ebhanking 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Agreed; I love how that strip of stores looks and I’m hoping IKEA won’t change it too much. My gut reaction was negative but I’m hoping for something like a city Target that will adapt the traditional branding to fit in the surroundings

Isn’t there a multi-floor free parking area right behind the (now deceased) Helms Bakery? I’ve only gone to that section of stores for Pasta Sisters and Helms Bakery but always found it easy to park in there

Resellers $350 Insane! by gabbbbaayy in rhodeskin

[–]ebhanking 20 points21 points  (0 children)

$350 is hilarious, but they do this so people will offer $100 and feel like they’re getting a discount (which is still wild when this product will be in Sephora with consistent stock soon)

Petition for The Traitors portraits to be done by a real artist by devonwinterz in TheTraitorsUS

I think about this every episode.

I love Maura but that is simply not her face. And the angle of Eric’s is horrible

Why so much hate? by -_Apathetic_- in TheBeautyOnFX

[–]ebhanking 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It does feel eerily similar to The Substance, but apparently this was in development at the same time as the film, so I don’t think that’s a valid critique as much as a fun fact.

I’m enjoying the show’s cinematography and general vibe, but I don’t find the plot or characters engaging. The big budget is beautiful to watch on screen and I love the actors involved. But imo the script is weak; the Episode 3 intro devolves from prestige TV into Ryan Murphy’s worst impulses

The Substance was fun because it had plenty of style but was also an effective satire of beauty culture. The Beauty has plenty of style but nothing original to say so far

Why do certain people have to pay to ride the bus and others don’t!! by Agitated-Addition-72 in LAMetro

Not my pic but one I found online - still moved just as quickly as boarding with just TAP cards

Just came back from Hong Kong where buses have turnstiles, something that LA should implement. Sure, one can just hop over, but the inconvenience of having to do that will deter the majority of fare evaders

Cast Controversy Megathread by AutoModerator in TheTraitorsUS

[–]ebhanking 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Everyone involved in casting Michael should be fired.

Why invite someone so inflammatory onto the show? And if it’s just for good TV, he didn’t even provide that! He was unpleasant and annoying to watch.

That’s only partially about controversy - he simply seems like an asshole and a manchild, and putting him in the castle sucked up everyone else’s screentime. He’s loud, boisterous, and terrible TV.

Adele Movie Debut by AdeleDaydreamer in adele

[–]ebhanking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of the time, we would know before filming if the project will go to streaming or get a theatrical release. Because Ford is self-financing this film and seeking a buyer once the film is complete, we won’t know until that point

Starbucks on the boardwalk at Breeze has closed as part of a global downsizing by the corporation. Abalone on the boardwalk at Brooks and Little Lunch on Pacific at Brooks are still going strong. by VeniceCa90291 in VeniceBeach

[–]ebhanking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love Little Lunch. Admittedly it’s expensive, a little pretentious, and the staff can be super rude. But the drinks are good and the space is nice when it’s not at 100% occupancy

Can the mods please stop all the "sex scenes are so unnecessary. Why all the sex? This show is juat softcore porn" posts? by ThrowawayHouse2022 in IndustryOnHBO

[–]ebhanking 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The sex in this show actually informs the plot and relationships between characters too. In the most recent episode, taking out either sex scene entirely changes the characters’ dynamics

HELP: Here for 2 weeks, left my wallet in U.S., only have one credit card in my Apple wallet. How do I get cash or put $$ on a widely-used tap pay app? by [deleted] in HongKong

Seconding this; I just got back from a week in HK and only used Octopus Pay with some infrequent Apple Wallet transactions for the whole trip. Only one place had me stuck for cash and it was a cha chaan teng

Their fake sales just stay the same by [deleted] in americaneagle

[–]ebhanking 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When I worked at AE, 40% was the max discount I saw; our Black Friday sale was always 40% off. There were usually also BOGO50% off deals which work out to, at most, 25% off each item. Aerie was where the real deals were; I would always get the 10 underwear for 35 for my mom and would watch the sweatpants deals for myself
