I re-watched the first three episodes, and the thing that strikes me is how close he came to (in all likelihood) ending the jobs of the people who persecuted him in the first place. An onerous settlement would have forced TPTB to examine their faith in these power-hungry jerks. And it’s highly likely that a clear win…
Two articles in a row that speak directly to my own needs for self-improvement. Both are very helpful, at least to me in particular.
“Egocentric mouth hole” is now my vocabulary word for the week.
Yeah, I’m on the fence about this. I’m inclined to agree with you, particularly in reference to claims made during a divorce, but I don’t want to discount abuse allegations altogether. For example, Charlie Sheen has had multiple allegations made against him. I have no trouble believing that he is an abusive pile of…
I disagree with the above commenter. It can be intimidating to constantly read about people with their seamlessly organized apps and immaculate office spaces. It’s nice to read about people who get things done without a formalized structure. For many of us, chaos exerts its force on us on a daily basis.
Exactly. Thank you for being one of the only commenters to take standard law practice into account instead of just knee-jerk opinion.
I don’t remember the race bit at all. Perhaps you have me confused with another commenter?
As a child, I deeply wanted to be self-sufficient, but I had no means to do it. To some degree, most children experience this confusing sort of longing, which is why they love stories of adventure and accomplishment. It reflects something telling. Most choices are taken away from them and they are taught that they can…
I don’t know enough about the Lindgren stories to judge the intent on race. What I will say, and what I remember of the stories, is that Pippi is strong, happy, and independent, the ideal dream of girls everywhere. She entertains herself and doesn’t really worry about boys. In this respect, I wish more children’s…
This is a great photo: the textures, the color.
“Pee-pee-pants manbabies” will now be incorporated into my regular vocabulary. Thank you!
Mmm, skittles.
Anytime some ride-or-die driver sites law as an excuse for poor/murderous behavior, my bullshit alarm goes off. Speeding, driving under the influence, running red lights, cruising through stop signs, double parking, texting while driving, parking in a handicap zone: I don’t know anyone who is a perfectly lawful…
Nah. He was looking at the potential paychecks. Go big or go home.
No, it’s the opposite. Cats should be cloistered in their carrying cases. Obviously, they need an opportunity to breathe, but the carrying cases come with airholes/breathable mesh. If the case is hard, it’s best to drape a towel over the opening so that they can’t see out.
This is for the same reason that a new…
Yes! For them, art is all about appropriation. It’s just the emotional dross you use to sell cars.
And the movie is about women fearlessly getting in the face of the status quo and refusing to accept it. It’s about shaking things up specifically in the name of gender equality. So, to then be the kind of artist who shies away from a mere word — it undermines the very project she was working on. It makes her seem…
So, due to the healing capacity of the mouth (and obviously given correct conditions) there is still the possibility that you can keep the same tooth? That’s kind of amazing.
There’s also Chelsea Handler, who hosted a latenight show until 2014 and is moving to Netflix soon. I have no idea what that’s going to look like, but Netflix has had impressive success with its original shows.
Mission burritos are half rice, which is what this dude did to maximum his burrito size. He doubled his rice load.
