.... well what did the ex-employee do?

Propaganda of the Rugged Individualist. You get to have it both ways, lionizing the great men who do fantastic things on behalf of America, and the insidious regulations who would stand in their way.

This rule wouldn’t do much in the USA, because they’d have to re-tool it not to rule out 80% of Hollywood.

Won’t somebody think of the industry?

I grew up in Syracuse. You could get 2 feet of snowfall overnight and all of it sticks, and you still go to school the next day because they had time to plow the roads. What you need is heavy snowfall during commute hours, because that makes the roads unsafe even as they’re being plowed/salted/sanded/etc. Falling…

One of my friends at work got a twitter response from Gunn one day. Gunn had tweeted that “Rogue One is the most underrated Star Wars movie,” or something to that effect, and my friend responded that he didn’t think it was underrated because everybody seems to love it, and “all of his coworkers” think it’s a top three…

Delivery has gotten so much worse since the pandemic. Once upon a time it was possible to order a pizza for less than $30, I swear. No more. 

If we ever have to exercise that option, it either means lives, innocent lives, have already been lost, or in the balance

Thank christ I was able to warrant your snark.

one percent of the vehicles going electric, reducing fuel consumption by 0.5%, is not the best of looks

I’m gonna be honest with you. Having two different foods at two different prices doesn’t sound manipulative at all. 

I replace the word “but” with the word “also” whenever possible. Usually when “but” comes up in regular conversation, it’s not meant to be exclusionary — “A is true, but I think B” makes it seem like A isn’t really true at all, or if it is, it’s irrelevant. “A is true. Also, I think B” leaves out all the negatives and…
