Fantastic book. Worth re-reading yearly / every other year IMO.

Glad you liked it! Loona is admittedly my favorite, but all of the characters are really solid.
If you liked Helluva Boss, you may like Hazbin Hotel, which is in the same universe, but...seemingly bigger than HB? In that the Princess of Hell and her girlfriend are trying to redeem sinners to get to Heaven, while a part of Heaven is doing something called "the Exterminations" to kill off Sinners.
As a note, HH is on Amazon Prime only (eight episodes, each longer than HB's episodes). There's a pilot episode on YouTube, but you'll have to get Amazon Prime to watch the rest. It's also a lot more of a musical than HB; expect a lot of singing (that is actually quite good), and like HB, also definitely NOT for kids.

Hazbin Hotel, upon your recommendation, has been added to my Prime queue.
Helluva Boss reminds me of Ren & Stimpy mixed with Archer. The animators are sooooo good at facial micro-articulation, just like Ren & Stimpy and this is a different animation technology.

Yeah, I definitely got Ren & Stimy vibes (as a 90s kid, it was one of the many cartoons I watched) from Helluva Boss. And it's not just micro-articulation that Vivzie does well; she's incredible at animating subtle signs of body language as well.
But yeah, as a fair warning, there's a part of Hazbin that may be incredibly uncomfortable to watch from a domestic violence/rape standpoint. Episode Four, and it does not hold back. Just so you're forewarned.

Watched 'Predestination' (2014) last night. They do similar things with time and incarnated iterations as does 'Dark'. A song that repeats throughout is "I'm My Own Grandpa' by Willie Nelson.
IMO, this is Ethan Hawke's best work ever and Sarah Snook is f***ing spectacular in this film.
Strongly recommend.
EDIT: I was curious if Sarah Snook won any awards for her role in that film and, sure enough, she won Best Actress at the Australian equivalent of the Oscars.

Who was the poster on here who liked every post - Benak? Something like that - anyone know what happened to him/her?
I miss Bendak likes. I don't think they ever said anything about what was going on, just stopped posting.

I went to my local gas station today expecting to see $2.89 gas. And then I remembered that it was just a dream.

I had a similar dream, only it was 97 cents for my 44oz Diet Dr Pepper

Just saw $2.99 today in South St. Louis County. We’re getting there.
I just realized your joke. It’s actually $2.79 at my local gas station in town. Until someone posted StL prices I didn’t get it.

Well, I've been in Arizona for the last eight years. Cheapest I got is 3.25. But it's been well over 4. So, I have dreams at 2.89.

I remember paying $0.69/gal at the QT off St. Charles Rock Road back in 1999/2000 on the way to work. Sometimes I splurged and got premium unleaded for $0.89/gal. Now those were the days.
I've been looking at getting another jersey (to add to the Pronger one I have from a couple decades ago), and seeing some Fanatics replicas. Will I be happy with that or do I need to pay up for Adidas?

Adidas jerseys should be on sale or going on sale soon due to them moving from Adidas to Fanatics on-ice.
Just filled up at $2.74.
But this reminds me of a TV news piece I saw one time where this lady had driven an hour to fill up at a gas station with some promotional special where it was 10 cents/gallon cheaper.
Regular vehicle, saved maybe 1.50? Minus the hour each way.
Trying to find ROR Winter Classic style one (size L) and not seeing much out there.

I'd be fine with the alternate that we have worn since that looks like the 1st WC jersey, but not seeing Adidas ones readily available...

That Olympic Australian breakdancer is embarrassing.
Is anyone taking this seriously? How is this not a joke? This must be an elaborate hoax to further erode the integrity of the Olympics.
A massive Punk’d episode on the world stage.
What’s next, Competitive Staring?
