Our dog Cinder (German Shepherd) was just put to rest last Friday due to a sudden medical emergency. We adopted her for only 2.5 years but it was a great 2.5 years and as any dog owner can attest, never enough. We also did not expect this to so soon, even though by the time we adopted her, she was already 5-6 years…

“Just a point of interest given the discussion on how big the Empire remains to our experiences with Star Wars in comparison to how short it actually was.”

And the Confederacy only lasted 4 years, but here we are.

Obvious soundtrack is obvious.

NFTs therefore are about as useful as those certificates saying you own a star.

I mean your summation there is pretty much an accurate assessment. I don’t know what the arguments were in other spaces, but the ‘legitimate’ use that was pitched to creators at least, was that NFTs would make it possible for digital art to be as valued as physical art, by making it so an artists work could be unique…

I have said this many times but I'll say it again, Best Years of Our Lives feels like a film made decades after ww2, not a year after.  It understood better then any films how bad war is.

If you think that’s all Wyler was, you need to go watch The Best Years of Our Lives. 

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a William Wyler movie I haven’t loved. The Best Years of Our Lives is still imo one of the best movies about what it’s like to come home from the war. The fact that Wyler cast a real disabled vet in a lead role was so gutsy. And the scene where Homer’s father has to remove his prosthetics…

I’m surprised this didn’t cover the olive oil fraud that I’ve heard about. I’ve been sticking with California olive oil just because I figured they’d be safe from the counterfeiting that I’ve heard so much about. I’d love to buy some quality Italian extra virgin olive oil, but I’m concerned about dropping the money…

Do you also lose a dish when that happens?

This is exactly what I’d come in here to post. I’m all about this one. 

This is a hell of an option to have on your website:

Link to the New York Magazine piece, since the article didn’t bother to include one:

None of that but I always wished melons didn’t taste so bad.  They look so delicious but every time I try them they still taste like melon :(

“[A]n omicron ouroboros”.

I love that there are a couple of sports-related links in this article, but neither are to Zombie Deadspin.

I can’t ignore the universal praise.

So....I guess I am going to be that person. Friendly neighborhood intellectual property lawyer here. In short, In-N-Out may or may not be right, but they had to do this. I have not read the complaint, so I could be wrong, and am not taking sides on who is right, but it appears that what In-N-Out is asserting is…

I was of the same mindset - “anyone can have red awnings on a white building, that doesn’t mean anything” - right up until I saw the photo of the interior:

It absolutely fucking shameful how we fail to care for our own people.
