The opposite is actually true - he starts his shows notoriously late, like over 90 minutes late. Journalists have lambasted him for it over decades at this point. If anything, Lourdes was EARLY.

So many people dogged on the Mou Mou episode, but it absolutely gave context to a man and a family that became juggernauts of retail/ hospitality, and Sydney's story was also compelling. In a way, he.was another "rose from nothing" figure, as many folks don't get that these valets and such are EXTREMELY well…

And not for nothing, but for an “iconic Millennial party film” half of Millennials had already graduated from college before the film was even released, and most of us didn’t require a 90 minute runtime dedicated to scoring the booze that was easily available.

That’s where I’d say Lady Bird excels beyond both of them in the “not nice” category.

Season five was ROUGH, although if it finally moves the public consciousness towards "actually, Diana wasn't that interesting to begin with and was just as navel-gazing as the lot of them" it's doing a public service.

To be fair, Universal always uses 40' as a guidepost Tham an absolute, and it’s more WHERE that 40' is when it comes to vehicle restraints. The restraints for Gringotts, Hagrid, Velocicoaster, Forbidden Journey, etc all hit at different parts of the body, so for example, a person with a 38' waist but giant calves may…

You know that Beyond in particular is owned by a multibillion dollar international corporation known for completely industrialized farming, right? A Cargill facility has just as unsustainable and questionable practices than a slaughterhouse- and they own a few of those as well.

Nope is a good film, not a great one- there’s a difference. At some point the formula becomes less “new and profound” and more “okay, we get it already.” See: M. Night Shyamalan.

I wonder if people that ascribe to this philosophy have ever worked in an environment that isn’t “content creator.”

People also keep missing the part where Bernie Sanders repeatedly endorsed antiabortion candidates because “it wasn’t the big picture.” He’s no saint of reproductive rights and folks need to stop pretending he was. Biden wrote VAWA. HRC has a history of supporting women’s and children’s rights, including reproductive…

Then why teach kids about cancer? They may never have it, right? Or about race, crime, economic disparity, sexual orientation or consent?

Not really- there are plenty of jobs where a certification is required for base pay. Processing annuities? Need your Series 6. LOMA for insurance, passing the Bar for law, multiple medical certs depending on specialty, a CPA, LPN or RN for nursing, etc.

Have you been pregnant, sweetheart? No amount of money or resources will end your nausea, will stop your tits from aching every time your bra brushes them, or will guarantee an easy delivery. That’s biological discomfort and it is a “REAL problem.”

Hey! I loved fearmongering about Dram Shop laws (not really, they’re horrible, yet effective). When I taught, the math was the worst. Nothing like a room of 30 grown adults going slack-jawed when you ask “Now, if a 40 proof ‘drink’ is 1.5oz and there’s five .75oz parts in this Long Island recipe, how many ‘drinks’ are…

From 14 years in commercial foodservice, the requirement is that there is one onsite resource that has taken the 16 hour certification- usually your Executive Chef or Culinary Director. The rest is largely up to the location/ company, and I’ve never encountered anyone that paid for ServSafe Food or Alcohol out of…

I don’t know why it’s so difficult for some people to get that Spears could have family looking to grift her AND that she probably still needed (needs) some form of conservatorship and inpatient care.

I’ve only lived as high as the 14th floor (the highest the building went) and I absolutely LOVED it compared to “ground dwelling,” as the author puts it. You got the views, the sunrise, insects were nonexistent, etc. Our building also had a lot of the services you mentioned- gated access, undergeound parking so you…

Despite what you may think from tech startup after tech startup, the vast majority of businesses- many of whom handle very sensitive data- don’t have robust IT infrastructure, which extends to their employees. Architects and engineers gravitate to the hot jobs, leaving financial, medical and insurance services hanging…

It’s likely a BIT more than that. Disclosure: I spent over a decade as a product SME installing and advising on digital menus and wayfinding in commercial foodservice.

If you can’t afford over $20 for at minimum three people, then you can’t afford to eat out, period. Product and labor costs are through the roof. No one but a place with a dollar menu is catering to cheap folks- THEY can't afford it.
