  • No. No. No. Don’t just buy a raw one if you don’t know what to do with it. Find a place that has prepared it in something. I recommend durian ice cream. The waitress warned me that it tasted like gas. I asked her if she meant the fuel or farts and she just repeated “gassy”. It smelled sweet like unburned gasoline at a classic car show and earthy like a belt loosening fart. And yet somehow it doesn’t actually taste bad. It’s mostly just unsettling that it tastes as good as it does. I’m not sure I’d order it again, except on a dare or to horrify any companions that haven’t experienced it yet. It’s like spicy food, sometimes you’ve got to power through the initial stink/spice to really get to the hidden flavors.

















  • It was very different that the other versions and I appreciated it for that. It felt like a Lovecraftian tale with a touch more humanity than standard. The Hellboy wit from the other movies is still there, but it’s bone dry in its delivery and I think that worked to the advantage of the tone of this one. It wasn’t Hellboy out saving the whole world. But those lower stakes got more personal. This reviewer just seems put off that this movie didn’t meet their own expectations for it. The reviewer wanted another boring shocky big budget adventure/action/super hero movie. Instead, they got a spooky slow burn folk horror with an indie feel. I guess that offended them maybe. I think they’re just rage baiting click throughs for the ad revenue.

    Just organize your library properly and pretty much every software will manage it better. There are options for organizing and renaming them mostly automatically, like EastTAG or filebot. Some people use Sonarr and Radarr to organize shows and movies, but those are probably overkill for you. The various *arrs will be more useful if you’re consuming new media through a server hosting Plex or Jellyfin. Kodi is also a waste if the library isn’t already meticulously organized and you don’t need a 10 foot interface.

    If you’re only consuming on desktop and you insist on being disorganized, then why even bother with anything other than VLC? It runs on Linux, Windows, iOS, and Android.
