Manion still would have won, since he would have had four of a kind/ace of spades and Labatt and Zhu would have had four of a kind/lower ace. (Suit hierarchy is, lowest to highest, diamonds-clubs-hearts-spades.)

I actually love the rollbar, because it makes it feel even more like a Barbie convertible come to life. You can almost see the fat little hand grabbing the “handle” and yelling “VROOM VROOM.”

Copying your job description is better than nothing, but for most positions higher than entry-level, this is terrible advice, because it ignores your accomplishments in favor of your duties. “Ran reports” is a duty. “Redesigned sales commission report to reduce time required to generate by 75%” is an accomplishment.

I was completely on-board for the extreme emotions and toxic relationships of the first half, but I felt like Hereditary did a poor job of connecting its emotional skeleton to its demonic possession tissue. The movie lost me when it pivoted to the Paimon plotline and started constantly referencing other, better horror…

If you’re in civil engineering, then you have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. Petrochemical engineering is incredibly subdivided, and re-tracking is difficult even in a boom economy when they will hire literally anyone who is still breathing. In a bust? Forget it. Why on earth would an energy company…

Except we can’t, because Shang’s not going to be in the live-action version. They’re replacing him with some dudebro who’s Mulan’s nemesis until she’s revealed to be a girl, at which point he catches feelings, because???? Reasons??? Presumably reasons good enough to get rid of Li Shang, Bisexual Icon, Softest of…

Look, I hear you on Trump, but there was an enormous fad in the 1920s for swallowing live goldfish, so let’s not blame the Tide Pod Challenge on the internet.

While your company hasn’t experienced a problem yet, there’s a difference between enforcement and the law. I work for an immigration firm that has done a number of assessments on these programs at the request of our corporate clients. Legally, in some locations (I see you service Spain), if your travelers aren’t…

I usually go with the following photos (some can be combined if needed):

Straight guys are so, so, SO bad at photos. SO BAD.

Her.

This is solid advice for anyone trying to get over a religious difference, but the fact that the girlfriend is also trans (and potentially of a different ethnicity than the letter-writer?) makes this approach harder. If she isn’t or doesn’t care to be cis-passing, the letter-writer may not be able to introduce her to…

You’re right that this is a big fat grey area, but unfortunately, even if your work has nothing to do with your current/new location, you may still need a work permit. It depends on the immigration officer who reviews your information, and how willing he/she is to accept that you are not performing work that replaces…

BIG FAT WARNING: International remote work programs are very new, immigration laws definitely have not caught up yet, and these programs will usually not let you know about this in their pitch.

Dammit, bands! Come to Houston! We’re the fourth-biggest city in the nation! Do you just hate money or something?

I was probably about five when my parents started plunking green beans down in front of me and asking me to help snap them. Kids may not be able to do everything right away, but there are always age-appropriate helping tasks that make it much easier to segue into proper cooking lessons when the child gets older.

It’s not automatically a bad environment for women, but it can be, and in more blatant ways than other industries. One of my friends recently got her welding certification after years of working as a research tech in a biology lab, and she’s got some stories about the jobs she worked as an apprentice before finding a…

My friends play this with Little Drummer Boy. It’s surprisingly challenging!

If Life is Strange involved a literal trip to the underworld, maybe!
