This was Conde Nast International, which operates somewhat autonomously from regular Conde. Conde Nast in the US has had him unofficially blacklisted for years now.

I agree with this. I chose to save Chloe in my game and watched the sacrifice ending after. While the save Chloe ending goes with the logic of “why would I save her so often through the game just to sacrifice her at the end”, the proper, Sacrifice Chloe ending has such a tragic depth to it. Max experienced this time…

Chloe’s breakdown at finding her dad’s car in the junkyard in ep 1 ruined me.

“It’s not clear if you can successfully save Rachel from Wells’ wrath using these dialogue choices, but regardless, the stakes feel tangible.”

The only okay “hack” for me is getting the coffee in the next size up cup. I’m not trying to trick the barista into more coffee — I get a short in a tall cup because I want room and I legitimately only want a short cup’s amount of coffee without having to dump coffee in the garbage can. When I was a barista taking out…

I didn’t see the appeal until I watched the show, then it all made sense.

There’s this cool thing called different strokes.

Yeah, lattes are hotter than 140F.

Yeah, my husband and I use it and it’s fine. I’m not busy tracking him all day long, that’s ridiculous. but he’s horrible with answering texts related to ETAs, and utterly incapable of texting to let me know he’s leaving work (we tried to get him doing that for years). He has severe adult ADHD and has zero concept of…

And I’m a Canadian who is married to an American and moved to the US for him. However I explicitly stated I would only move to America if we would eventually go back to Canada together to have a family. He’s known the deal for years. This is something you iron out before getting really invested. If she’s in her early…

They had to invent term limits because FDR was so popular. What happened to that Democratic Party?

Lol yeah nothing gets people more excited than “nah not $15 an hour, let’s go with $12"

I’m sorry. I also have had to cut out my parents but for different reasons (almost 20 years for my father, and 3 or 4 years with my mother). It’s tough to have no parents even though they’re alive. But, I’m glad you’re living your life freely, and not in a cult!

Slightly OT, but even though I was never Mormon I really love lurking the exmormon subreddit. It’s fascinating to me. I’m glad you got out of JW. Are your parents still active?

Username checks out.

My pseudo-mom became a JW for a while after her divorce. She was lonely and got sucked in for a year or two. Once she started living with her now-husband out of wedlock they all excommunicated her for living in sin. They did her a big favor and she can’t believe she fell for it. However, she still holds onto some of…

Okay? And your friends from years ago may be hurt that you’ve decided to snub them for no discernible reason while maintaining an active social life elsewhere (excluding how people can mutually fall out of contact with each other). But I’m talking adulthood friends. Friends who you’ve been friends with post-kids, and…

I am also an introvert, and a homebody. But honestly if a friend matters to you, you make time for them. It may not be as frequently post-kids, but especially when I see this person going for girls nights with groups of other moms, and we live 20min away from each other, I call BS.

3D ultrasounds are horrifying and should never be posted anywhere.

She would literally never contact me. As it is we only see them a couple times a year at most at this point, and they live 20min away.
