All of it? One of his lawyers is millions of dollars in debt. The other one is mired in litigation with his former law partners after he threatened them and told them they were messing with “God Almighty”.

It’s terrifying when you think about it. Portland is so, so white, and the SUBURBS around Portland are EVEN WHITER.

He’s pals with another old white dude in the C-suite. Same as always.

Even so. “Cormoran Strike”?

Get back to me when anyone gives a single solitary fuck about how dads are making parenting decisions and wallowing in “daddy shaming”.

I look forward to your link to the fanfic rewrite of this novel, which sounds way more interesting than the actual novel.

If I’m dropping the price of a functional used car on a bicycle, I’m not taking it anywhere that some asshole can steal it.

Keep an eye out for people selling their “old” bikes to grab the new one - Peloton is only giving $700 for a trade in, so a lot of savvy people are buying themselves perfectly good current models for $1000. That may still be out of your budget, obviously, but it is about half the price of the new one.

Head over to Lifehacker.

So they’re for the people who are stuck indoor cycling, but miss the adrenaline rush of dodging potholes and swerving to avoid getting doored?

With the new Peloton Bike+ coming out, obsessive upgraders are selling their current-model Peloton bikes. Peloton is only offering a $700 credit for older bikes, so you’ll see people offering to buy a used Peloton for $1000, meaning the seller gets a lot more than they would have on a trade-in while the buyer gets a…

Your work to find opportunities and further your career is proactiveness. That you are in a place where your job and social preferences align with the opportunities still available in a pandemic is pure luck.

“Have a job and a personality that fortunately happen to match up well with the limitations caused by this pandemic” is not what I’d call resilience so much as pure luck.

I’m sorry to hear about your brother. And, you are so correct. We couldn’t even get people to wipe away their own sweat as a common courtesy, and now we’re supposed to expect these same jerks will be diligent about COVID-19 safety?

The US is different. We reject the heavy government regulation that many other countries have, and then we complain about the lawsuits that fill the gap.

The truth is that pregnancy is boring as shit, because you can’t do anything to make it happen faster. It’s nine months of waiting for the big day, absent something going wrong, and you sure don’t want that to happen just for the sake of relieving boredom. There probably isn’t even a baby shower unless it’s the first…
