Ever since I moved to the West Side, Public School 310 in Culver City has been a go-to spot for me and my friends. Just the mere mention of the restaurant would inspire someone to shout, “Tots!” like that guy in Napoleon Dynamite (“Give me some of your tots!”). But it’s true — Public School 310 makes some damn good tater tots. And the new Public School 213 will bring ‘em across town to Downtown L.A.

“Robromance.” Look it up. It’s a thing — or, it’s about to be, after the premiere of futuristic buddy cop drama Almost Human on November 17th. Once again, we’ll all get enjoy that special bond between man and machine, a bond that’s been lovingly described time and again throughout the annals of our race. From Rosie’s maternal affection for Elroy Jetson to Tom Haverford’s enthusiasm for his for DJ Roomba, robromance comes in all shapes, sizes, and software updates.
Because we love robots so mu...

It’s Halloween, all of the local construction companies are sold out of wrecking balls, you’re sitting there alone next to that “Sexy Lorax” costume you made last year out of 50 potatoes and a live Persian cat, and now you’re panicking.
Well, put the cat down and panic no longer.
(Actually, don’t put the cat down. Just place him down. Unlike the 30 people in those wrecking ball costumes in your town this Halloween, the cat deserves to live.)
We’re covered in blood now because we’ve spent all ...
