At first glance, this sounds REALLY cool: Zoe Saldana has appeared in 4 of the 6 top-grossing movies worldwide.
But it's also significant that she's made up to look alien in all 4 of those movies: Her Blackness is completely disguised, because in Hollywood, aliens are more acceptable and relatable than Black people.
I slit the film over my microwave meal like I'm performing a human sacrifice.

"B" has to be one of the worst letters when it comes to my collection. I basically have Bang! and that's it.
But I did remember I owned #Biblios back when it was known as "Scripts and Scribes." My wife was busy so I found a solo variant on #BoardGameGeek to try. Wasn't great but it was fun to see this game again as I haven't played it in probably 10 years.
And yes, I played in bed.
Played the second scenario of the Arkham Horror LCG. We didn't exactly win, but at least none of us suffered additional trauma.

I'm tired of living like it's the 1600s:
Can I afford eggs at the market?
Are my family going to die of the plague?
Puritans are coming for my sinful lifestyle.
I want modern problems.
Modern Problems.
@htdrake Looking at the picture now, I immediately spot SUBTLY.
I had to take a relative to urgent care (everyone's fine) right after class today and nobody at the medical facility commented on the fact that I was still wearing a lavalier mic.

Both parties have held the debt ceiling hostage as a political tool. For example, in 2011, the Republicans did it. But in 2013, the Republicans did it. On the other hand, this year it is the Republicans who are doing it.
Somewhere an aging Volkswagen marketing executive is muttering, "1975 was the real year of the rabbit."

Answer
@RecursiveNeuron I'm going to guess it's an error, because Python doesn't have the ++ operator.
If it turns out Python added it when I wasn't looking, and it behaves like other languages, it will print 3 twice.
Testing it out on Python 3.10.1, I'm surprised to learn that Python has a unary + operator, which (in this case) does nothing. The code therefore prints 2 twice.
