Pretty much this, if you allowed tacos clearly tacos would win. So let’s just leave them out.

Sorry, Star Wars dorks.
I will step up for the pain. We went last April and I thought it was a great experience, our two kids 6 and 9 loved it. The actors were running in tune, the hotel was full of people. It is much more geared for young kids. The interactions with the actors played into that. But even if you decide to pay 6k for something like this, i don’t see why you would do it more then once. They would need to change all the story lines and to some extent the “sets”. I am guessing when they were going to need get the cost down 50% and to do that was going to be to expensive.

Any Board Gamers Up in This Piece?
Just picked this up for Family board game night this weekend. Kids are 8 and 11, box says 10+ so the 8 year old may need to play with Dad the first time but she picks up games pretty quick.

Sonos thread
I am going to upgrade mine to Era 300s after we finish our remodel. I have a friend who just did and for surround sound they make a huge difference. For music listening he did not find it as big a difference.

Cash App founder stabbed to death in San Francisco
The NYTimes with a story on Downtown SF. It is clear there are issues in that area. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/30/us/san-francisco-whole-foods-crime-economy.html?unlocked_article_code=hmmUYlPSXZZixY7tRXIhPFR01xgS8AaT1FVZvQHdL7tMzP7ZFfJvqNC5DnadVD8u4Q5JIcZsRPPoLhjpnih0F9s6nuG7K5m0KlhAPgk-CV8ltJMZets6q1fSFrfbwFHoBuLN51K9Mg0VAMfhbHhai4yhGFxyf13Fg-0HojSgjLWKnwTNk8_OORfC5HFaS4JE_orA4uqOiBfzdlWtL18_mvggvddyDdW3lubRAXKlT7tA-vbtwB_uo6qd9mVvJLJxrrHovy9Ij1LuRdiVHEE6Lpad6c0_Pf04QKsWXMrNxCJQxT7aJVF9LJmL59UlMhoy-qYQnS3iH_w_Iy3Ngiyg615I8qQi9YAfUoPy50s&smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

Overrated Austin restaurants?
I went last week. That is the correct price, but you can add in wine parings and get it up there pretty quick. BTW - I thought it was worth the price.

population decline
I am not sure what bubble you live in but acknowledging that population levels in parts of the world are declining, understating what those reasons are, and how we can offset them through things like AI is the whole fucking point of the thread. I never called it a crisis (and the thread title doesn’t call it a crisis). And how did you call it a “fucking joke” and then right away say “We are were we because lots of straight people stopped having kids” so yes there is some population issue?

population decline
I don’t see it as a comment about there being more than before. It is as you say the social climate has changed. As society becomes more tolerant and accepting of LGBTQ, more people will feel free to live that lifestyle and not pressured into a traditional relationship with kids in their 20s. In a thread about population decline it seems like a valid point and one we should acknowledge. The question would be how can we ensure those couples are able to reproduce (via donor or other) at the same rate as a heterosexual couple.

Shit HEB Makes (when its open).
Yeah I am doing the same math. The Amex Blue is 3% on all groceries, this one 1.5% with a bonus of 5% on HEB branded. I think for us the Amex blue is still going to be better. Had it been 5% on all HEB purchases we would just get both I guess and use the Amex Blue on WFs and TJs.

Nice, I think you will enjoy it. Make sure to add to the notes you want a table on the patio. You will be late enough it should be wonderful outside.

Las Vegas go hard or go home thread
Since you mentioned SW, we went to Lakeside (they are next to each other) in January and it was excellent. You can try and score a table out by the water show and it would be great birthday dinner. We only had seafood but they have steaks on the menu and as good as they made the rest of the food I am sure that would be good.
