RIP, sweet Ponzu.

I can’t decide if the writers were intentionally making the Flag-Smashers look like a bunch of kids flying by the seats of their pants or if the writers were actually writing by the seats of their pants. Either way, someone was sitting on their pants.

even en masse, maybe!

i swear that Jack-in-the-Box used to have a sort of meatball and ciabatta roll, and i loved that. 

not the OP, but beyond basic greetings and maybe a bit of surface-level small talk, what other interaction would be needed in the workplace, especially with a non-employee visitor that was invited by someone else?

at least for me, i’m relieved to see work culture finally changing to accept different personalities,…

ditto on the “i’m not a workplace sharer” sentiment from the other commenter... i am certain that any stories i have truly are quite boring, especially during pandemic times :P

one sort of alternative could also be trying a certain type of food that has variations in multiple cultures (especially if there’s something the kid seems particularly fond of). even as an adult, i’ve been exploring different kinds of steamed buns and dumplings, and they all seem universally delicious even though…

this! also glad this article didn’t go down a weird path about meetings and interruptions... an occasional cameo from a kid during a meeting is fine, but hearing them constantly is not. hearing you yell at them for being too loud or otherwise causing (what you perceive to be) trouble is unacceptable; that’s why…

the MO on most of these sites, honestly. wonder how long it’ll last that way.

genuinely enjoyed the food coming and going from Japan (via ANA). i don’t remember all of the dishes since it’s been a while, but there was a really tasty curry rice that i think back on fondly. i think there was also a fish and rice dish that i quite enjoyed.

parting with it for good really is liberating and worth consideration, though.

definitely a thing with some bloggers here... i saw an article that used “anodyne” repeatedly in place of something more familiar... i wondered if the blogger had just learned it, and felt so proud of themselves that they just had to shoehorn it in.

the show didn’t get a lot of mentions here, but i loved the pilot of The Magicians too. 

it’s really just a maybe on the nipple jewelry... those are pretty common, IME (in terms of what jewelry people choose to wear). it could have been “special”, chosen for that evening, but she could have just been wearing it because she personally liked it/wanted to (without taking any exposure into consideration).

i…

i had the same thought. granted, it was on Instagram (so maybe, grain of salt), but i saw a quick kitchen tips video showing someone successfully doing this with the bottom of a ladle.

amazingly, the same people turn around and complain that it was all too easy, there was nothing exciting about the story, no fun reveals, etc. etc.

yikes; this is a lot of upset and resentment towards a television show. maybe it’s better not to watch.

the opening scene was heartbreaking; beautiful acting, and another angle of insight into the damage done by what Bucky went through, from brainwashing to recovery.

i hope the next set is Blathers and Celeste!
