A friend of mine is still runing XP on one of his (all but one are ancient POS machines) and 7 on 3 others. The only modern one has 10 on it and he complains endlessly about it. He’s a cheap bastard, no doubt..

Two things that helped me and my son were meal prep and variety.

I’m always happy to see Clamps, but it was actually a reference to a 22-year-old Sluggy Freelance strip that I doubt anyone else remembers:

Idk. It’s getting into meaningless semantics now, I suppose, but I don’t know that simply asking for something counts as throwing one’s weight around, and I don’t know why he’s solely to blame for the matter escalating, or why you assume he quit “in a huff.” But either way, if there is a kind of nepotism that ends…

Well I certainly won’t stand idly by while these aspersions are being cast on the nonexistent editorial staff here at the AVClub!

I’m curious why she was repped by CAA if she had such paltry experience, unless her signing there was a move by CAA to get Miguel Sapochnik as a client. In which case this is just a whole Hollywood talent ouroboros.

Remember when The AV Club used to have its own identity, rather than just endlessly regurgitating stale Twitter memes from a few years ago?

Damn it - it doesn’t *matter* that OP got the facts, and her existing role, and the article’s intended inferences wrong!

As with many newswires, the tone and point of view expressed in the article are...difficult to interpret, but I’d argue that the phrase “spousal solidarity” has inherently positive connotations. “He’s sticking by his wife!”

Not sure how clamping their nipples is going to help, but I support you.

I get OP’s confusion. The article they link to from the first words of this article says that ‘wife guys’ are men who got famous for things their wives did (which tracks with the Wiki definition: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wife_guy) and then provides a bunch of examples that make them all seem like sexist leeches.…

I don’t get this shit. Miguel Sapochnik advocated for his wife and was willing to quit a prestigious job to do so. And this is...bad?

Perhaps when Big Pharma stops price-gouging on medication and major corporations are stopped from buying up so much property and price-gouging on rent, then older people could afford a newer computer?

I’ll state up-front that I’m an idiot, so I have some dumb questions for you, because I really want to try this (I have lots of black wooden furniture, and dust gathers on it almost as soon as I clean it).

My favourite is a Windex glass cleaner in the spray bottle. cheap and very effective. a quick spray on flat top/ceramic stove and wipe and it is done.

And then a house badger for the centipedes.

I prefer ignorance.

Easiest way to keep spiders in check is to keep house centipedes. They eat spiders.

I mean, they literally crawl on the ceiling above my bed, soooooo....

lol, stock photography... I love that picture for ‘Sewing’; they’re about to start hand stitching next to a seam that’s clearly already been through a serger? 🤔
