Just finished this with @Mrs. Haus , I think this was a very solid season. I can see how they're needing to bend some things around from the book sources, but it's still working IMHO. Amos is still in my fictitious "spirit animal" pantheon as "The one I want showing up when I'm stuck at the...

It would not surprise me in the least to eventually learn he's the executive producer and the end of the series will be him moving on to another house of vampires...

Second episode still holding up well. Dialogue slowly improving. minor nitpick...

They need to get merch going from this. I have a friend who also loves this show and I'd like nothing more than to leave a Nadjya doll in the corner of a room at their house without telling them.

New experiment... as well as that ground cover has grown and produced an overabundance I'm seeing if I can get it to grow through a stainless steel mesh to make a cover for my filter...

Watched the pilot tonight... @Mrs. Haus was skeptical, I was optimistic reading on here and a few reviews. I'll give it a solid "entertaining without being ham fisted with crap". The dialogue could use a little work, but they'll get it smoothed out I'm sure. By the end of the episode I...

I was argue she was good in Longmire. Of course then we also have to consider her "work" on The Flash.. and that accent....*shudder*

This would work well with my Adrienne Palicki Batwoman fantasy...

Well, it speaks to a dichotomy that I think contrasts Marvel v. DC the same way that it contrasts Star Trek v. Star Wars. Warning, I'm about to go on a small scale rant.... They're both superficially similar in form. One is a vehicle which tells personable relatable stories and presents social...

I do admit that Mark Hamill was kinda underwhelming, but how is anybody going to hold a candle to Jackie Daytona?

It's also streaming though the page apparently.. https://www.syfy.com/harley-quinn

Quote of the season so far for me.... "Oh.. a HUMAN vagina!"

Yeah, I will admit I giggled almost non-stop at "Peak Power Collin".... "TGIF.." *thump*

https://kmhk.com/free-potatoes-the-great-potato-giveaway-sat-59-at-metrapark/?trackback=fbshare_mobile Favorite quote from the story... "There is no limit, and no questions asked." This says so much about my relationship with potatoes....

Another thing I've seen a lot of these shows (not just CW shows, but other ensemble shows like Brooklyn nine nine even) is that they get so wrapped up in making sure every side character has a "meaningful development arc" that suddenly they're needing to concurrently run multiple plot thread and...

This season has waffled around some. I WANT to say it's better. But the writing is still essentially crap since they apparently don't remember their own worldbuilding from episode to episode, let alone season to season. When watching it @Mrs. Haus and I will usually keep track of how often...

I would disagree on your analysis of Legends. Once that show stopped trying to take itself seriously (i.e. when Rip left) they started finding a groove. They not only realize their premise is a bit silly, but fully lean into it and own it. I've actually enjoyed that show more than any of...

Oh you sweet summer child.....

The Cinemark theaters actually have a refillable cup and popcorn bucket you can get and get refills for what, by movie theater standards, are the bargain rate of $3 each. Which works for me since I do enjoy popcorn with movies. @Mrs. Haus is doing Keto, so she just loads her purse up with...

... Mailer DEMON!!!!!! I've liked this whole season so far. Especially since I can now drop the line "Wow, looks like two vampires try to hypnotize Joe Biden at the same time"

I guess in the "Casualties of Covid" list we should seriously be thinking that "Theaters" might be on it. Especially since if they now realize direct to streaming could actually be more profitable for the production houses.... Welcome to being the new horse drawn buggy! Because to be fair...

Cinemark is based here in Dallas. I hope they manage to survive this. If only because they're the closest theater to my house and have an IMAX screen. They're also the nearest place to get a funnel cake, which is also important.

What I love even more is it being labeled "problem solvers".... Oblig :

The ones we're talking about.. no. On the other hand years ago when I had a 55gal with green severum in it I would buy ghost shrimp as live food for them. I bought some once and one seemed to be sneaky and survive... It kept growing. Soon I realized that somehow a full on monster prawn or...

Well, I have also seen "mineral balls" for shrimp and other things. I have a handful of these in my 20 gallon. Within a couple weeks of putting them in the tank I noticed my amano shrimp had went through a molt and had deeper color to their shells. At first glance, it looks like you simply...

Yeah, that's a Betta that gives zero F's.... looks like he'd cut ya. I'm just wondering how you balanced out the water chemistry in the tank while using tapioca balls from a boba tea place as your substrate.....

In my case I live in an older part of Dallas where the water pipes are the same ones which have been in the ground for so long, and the houses are old and have old pipes leeching slowly into the water. But like I said, I haven't had any notable negative effects.

The biggest water issue I've had living in Dallas is that the water from the tap is really high in dissolved solids. Specifically magnesium salts IIRC. This ended up not negatively impacting any tank I've had too badly. It did make it hard to purposefully lower the PH in the water (it...

Yeah, that is one of my concerns. In the 20G I have now the only fish I worry about is a red and blue Gourami I have who is an asshole. He will nip at and chase other fish. On the other hand he's never gone after the one ammano algae eating shrimp I have in the tank. I'm debating getting...

Yeah, I am wanting to add some more colorful shrimp to my 20g. Haven't decided which yet. I was somewhat amazed you can buy live shrimp on amazon and have them shipped.

OK, here's where I get called a bad aquarium guy.... When I was running my heavily planted, CO2 injected freshwater 100G setup, I removed water MAYBE once or twice a year. In Texas, and with AC and Heat in a house evaporation was a constant lowering of the water level. The saving grace was...

IIRC , those old bulbs which WalMart carried (I used them too) were mostly in the Aponogeton family. Like this :

Is it just me or is it every time I hear Laszlo talk all I can think is "That's Richard Hammond as a vampire...."

Oh, in relation to that pic up there. The one thing which I never really managed to do back when I had my huge tank was get that "lush green lawn" look. I managed it easy peasy with the 20 gallon tank thanks to something I tried on a lark from Amazon : Of course I completely ignored the...

I used to keep a few massive heavily planted freshwater tanks. Then I got a job where I didn't have time to maintain. Now I'm down to one 20G tank.. But now I'm slowly wanting more and more dense plant coverage. I know where this path leads. Current tank :

So you're saying we need a Tyen Fleshlight....

We're still binging through it... Just got to the Vampire Council episode. heh

You should open a change request ticket to get that fixed....
