I rarely say this but someone at the focus of this article should catch a bullet.

Just thinking of my local area (in Southern California) all 5 of the nearest grocery stores use angled parking/directional flow and so do the three nearest banks. Two of the three nearest hardware stores use non-angled parking.

I think you’re confirming you don’t live in the US. In the US, it’s common place for angled spaces for directional traffic on flat parking lots. (And sometimes in parking structures too with directional traffic.) I won’t say it is “the standard” because I’m guessing it is 50/50 with just “straight in parking” across…

You’ve never seen angled parking spaces (like at a grocery store)? Hard to believe if you live in America.

It’s kind of idiotic that Ventura Air District is not part of this program.

I have crosswalks near me that the buttons work on a schedule (intersection of 2 major streets.) During normal daytime (7am to 9pm), they don’t work. The crosswalk lights just illuminate on schedule. Outside of those hours (low traffic hours), the button call does work. I had noticed this for years but confirmed with…

Deadline isn’t “their famous relationships with the upper echelons of the industry.” They are part of PMC and PMC owns Dick Clark Productions which is a signatory of the AMPTP. Deadline is a mouthpiece of the group they are a part of.

Seems like you’re aware, no?

Video game assets don’t “sustain” a company. Their stock plummeted because they disclosed the strike is hurting them. Video game assets are already factored into their earning expectations. It can’t make up for a massive shortfall somewhere else. They would, at this point, have to have a sudden unexpected windfall in…

Hey, guys, I found the AMPTP sock puppet! ^^^^

Sony will break. Their stock is tanking due to the strikes and they have no streaming service to protect. It only takes that to start the end of the strike.

The studios are making money. Including the streamers. The accounting is deceptive to appear “in the red.” And Disney makes most of their money from their theme parks/attractions — not their studio. By a massive amount. The tv/films are, in essence, marketing costs for their real earners and brand recognition.

The monetary compensation came up but the loopholes that negate those increases remain.

This is only part of the problem (pollution accumulation.)

Please tell me he’s insured by Tesla.

The two RR Boat Tails were gorgeous. The rear lines actually made sense how they swept down. The wood deck went all the way to the edge. (The blue/black one is less beautiful though the did show, at one point, a light blue with elm/light wood deck that was also great)

612 Scaglietti was a better GT car. And its precursor, the 456GT, was a better sleeper/executive car. Boss had both (along with the 550) and we had “douche” ratings for the cars. The 550 always got the “this guy’s having a midlife crisis” vibes (especially in LA.)

This does not prolong the strike. Literally the last strike was broken when the smaller studios agreed to deals with the unions (at that point it included MRC and The Weinstein Company.) The idea is to divide and conquer — for both sides. Breaking up studios (whether large or small) to get them to agree with the…

His promo tour isn’t over. He has specifically asked for a promo waiver this past week.

He’s very much a producer (and quite frankly, by all accounts including my friend who works on the MI movies, the director with Christopher McQuarrie a sad chump.) On top of that, besides his production company, he’s owned a studio. He’s a studio lackey who still has SAG-AFTRA membership.
