The McPlant isn't popular in the United States

The hard part about getting older is having to think about things like the effects of cholesterol and the cost of raising animals for consumption.

I really think that no one would have noticed if McDonald's had started making their patties more plant based. The Impossible patty makes a perfectly good burger and I know people who go to McDonald's are not going for nutritional value anyway.

Think of the Jack in the Box tacos. No one cares what meat is used. They would also be a wonderful candidate for swapping protein ingredients.

Rivian x Volkswagen

Have you seen the R3? It's a very good looking car that reminds me of the VW Golf.

Chappell Roan

The amazing thing about music in the age of streaming is that it's never too late to discover an artist. I am now a fan of Chappell Roan. Her music is so full of life and dynamic. While listening to her album "The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess", I couldn't help but feel she is the bar that many mediocre pop artists strive to reach for. There are sounds and parts of the songs that sound familiar but are actually more refined than the attempts of bigger artists that left you wanting a bit more.

I rather enjoyed Olivia Rodrigo's sophomore album, Guts, so it's no surprise that Dan Nigro has also executed a marvelous pop album that's covers a range of emotions and is packed with head banging melodies.

Nosferatu

I have been waiting for this trailer for awhile. I'm somewhat literate when it comes to high brow movies and I tend to believe that most Robert Eggers movies are. I might only grasp the subtext after a screening and supplemental YouTube analysis/critic review but I do believe watching more challenging movies helps us appreciate the medium as an art and even a commentary on life.

It's interesting that both Willem Defoe and Nicholas Hault are in this title considering their previous history with vampire movies (Shadow of the Vampire and Renfield respectively). Of course we all know Bill Skarsgård knows how to play a mysterious, creepy, villain.

The 2025 BMW X3

This thing looks like a car from a PS2 game and I don't mean that as a compliment in any way, shape, or form.
