In something I never expected to have to clarify, this is a hot dog recipe but it is not a recipe for hot dogs. I know that I have a history of making foods from scratch that most sane people do not feel the need to — cream cheese, fig newtons, bagels, vanilla extract, and [coming soon] almond extract too — but I do still leave “grinding meat with spices, salt, and curing agents into a smooth, fine emulsion” before being “stuffed into casings and smoked” to the experts, usually at Hebrew National.

Lullabies Made of Static is a quieter, slower, but still quite welcome addition to PC gaming's brutalist walking sim canon

Brutalism serves one of two purposes in games: either as a source of concrete projectiles, or much more commonly, as a backdrop to quietly wander around, feeling morose.

Why Did ‘Supergirl’ Change the Ending of ‘Woman of Tomorrow’?

Spoiler Alert

In our all-spoilers interview, director Craig Gillespie and screenwriter Ana Nogueira explain their choices

There’s no getting around it: Supergirl “didn’t meet our box-office expectations,” as DC Studios co-CEO Peter Safran told The New York Times. Nevertheless, the film sparked more than its share of discourse, and one of the most-discussed moments — along with an eyebrow-raising needle drop —  is the ending. Supergirl’s actions toward the villainous Krem at the end (which, fair warning, will be spoiled in the interview that follows) were a major change from Woman of Tomorrow, the comic-book miniseries that inspired the film. Three days before the movie’s release, Rolling Stone spoke to director Craig Gillespie and screenwriter Ana Nogueira about their choices.
