Plus, I’m generally trying to not use the oven in summer if I can help it.   Heats the whole dang house up.

“Batgirl would have put her in front of a lot more eyes”

The greatest marketing coup in decades has to be a company convincing the public they have to buy an annual version of a video game. Incredible.

“I am a shitty person who does horrible things. They won’t hire me! Cancel Culture!”

Serious question from a non-American: Can you not just go down to the corner store and buy a gun to shoot them with?

Or send a young, blond, handsome but reckless undercover cop in to join their illegal street racing gangs and bring them down from the inside.

I hate this annoying trend of making novelty items that are supposed to taste like something, but then taste nothing at all like it. They just need to take the Jelly Belly approach and make it really taste like the thing they say it is, even if it’s less than ideal.

Sure, the company sucked, but I still have fond memories of the employees that worked there. What I really miss is Family Video, they didn’t show up in my city until the mid 2000's, but they sure were a breath of fresh air compared to Blockbuster. I kept renting from them until the bitter end.

The nostalgia for Blockbuster is disgusting corporate revisionism. It was a shitty chain with puritanical values that put small business owners out of business by using their size and money. Fuck Blockbuster.

It’s a good idea if you are an actor to actually get your work seen by people. 

I feel like “How late are you open” is sometimes a legitimate question. Sure, sometimes it means “I’m coming, please accommodate me” but sometimes you just want to know if you can make it to a place before it closes and “you can’t” is a valid answer.

This bitter ass snarky “How dare this woman actually care about her job!” nonsense always tells me that a lot more people have swallowed justifications for their own misery than most folks realize.

No one goes into acting to perform for an audience of zero. No one wants to design a car that no one will ever drive. No…

That's weird. Do you not understand taking pride in your work --- and art and craft? 

The worst thing happening to them is that they worked long and hard on something, and their work got thrown in the garbage. And it’s not like they were working on a b-movie where maybe the actors in it are hoping that it’s quietly released on VOD and no one ever knows they were in it—this was a superhero property,…

Never bake anything in a toaster oven. It doesn’t really work.

She got paid, but this could sink her career, meaning she might not get paid again. I personally am pretty attached to having continued employment.

The down side, is then you have a bunch of ramekins to clean.

I’ve tried this many times without success.

It sure seems like they forgot Mabel doesn’t know ASL toward the end there.   There was at least one moment, where Theo conveyed a relatively long thought via ASL and Mabel understood what he was saying.   

Regarding Mabel yelling at Theo that she doesn’t know ASL: If someone continued to speak a foreign language to you after you made it clear that you don’t understand them, you’d eventually get frustrated, too. What was surprising to me is how Theo didn’t get exasperated at Mabel for continuing to speak in English.
