I know, it’s kitchen stuff, it’s not exciting, I know this! But hear me out. I’m no chef, I panic in the kitchen all the time. This thing totally changed how I do dinner in the last couple months. I picked up one of these Ninja air fryers after deciding to make a permanent lifestyle change. When giving up a lot of ‘bad foods,’ and a bunch of what one would usually fry up in oils or butter- is obviously the first thing you should lose. Air fryers use no oils, and what I originally planned to use for fries…

In the annals of film history, there are a few great ‘what ifs’ that may have changed the world of cinema as we know it had they ever come to pass. One of the most famous among these is the tale of Chilean-French auteur Alejandro Jodorowsky, and his obsession with creating the ultimate cinematic adaptation of “Dune.”[Editor’s note: Jordorowsky is a problematic person to write about, as he admitted to raping “El Topo” co-star Mara Lorenzio. Read more about that here.] Jodorowsky’s conceived project (when he acquired the rights to adapt Frank Herbert’s Sci-Fi epic in 1974) was vast in…
