It doesn’t look like Bitwarden offers sharing. How are you and Mrs. MC handling shared passwords? (We have one Netflix account, and share the login credentials, for example)

Aren’t they the same guy?

Fair enough. I view AMC’s breaks as purely greedy (manufacturing the mid-season cliffhanger, and buzz around the return) but maybe I should be less cynical ... like, in general.

Oh damn, you’re right. Thank you. Were they the first AMC show to do it? I know Mad Men and Breaking Bad followed suit ... I thought TWD started it a few seasons in and the other shows (really, AMC) saw the ratings benefit and imposed the break on their tentpole shows. Read more

But that’s precisely why AMC is using it as an incentive to sign up for their new service. No one will care if [random new show] premieres a day or two early. Read more

You’re somebody’s type, I promise.

Toy Story That Time Forgot! Fiiiinally! I guess the timing is only a few weeks late, since the story takes place immediately after Christmas.

Luke was fighting his dad, doesn’t that give him some unique qualifications to tackle the Empire? I don’t view Obi Wan and Yoda as assholes, but trying the curveball “last ditch” effort. “Normal Jedi haven’t been able to defeat the Empire, but this kid is special ... let’s give him enough training to make him… Read more

>> Do you know how it feels to have people applauding somebody’s portrayal of a disability and yet give me looks for being out in public?

You still haven’t read qwedsa’s post. They said, “Probably the kid isn’t autistic at all.”

B is my fear. Trump’s already shown dozens of times that he’s basically a toddler in a poorly fitting suit. He’ll certainly just “take his ball and go home” when he loses the election. Read more

FYI, your Google Doc link is restricted. Can you make it available to anyone (with the link)?

Not a bad idea, but this depends on the kid. And you’ll not really know when (if) they discover the info, which is basically no better than letting them learn from classmates, YouTube or (gasp) the internet at large. Read more

We’ve been reading “It’s So Amazing” (https://smile.amazon.com/Its-So-Amazing-Families-Library/dp/0763668745?sa-no-redirect=1) with our 7yo ... the book takes a very straightforward, but casual approach. They use the proper terms, speak directly, and two cartoon characters (a bird and a bee) serve as the audience… Read more

Isn’t there still a very real concern about the candy itself being a carrier? Infected person hands out candy covered in COVID, it mixes in the bag with every other piece of candy, kid peels open every piece of candy and gets COVID all over their hands and directly into their body.

Some percentage of Amazon deliveries are handled by Amazon delivery drivers, and USPS never touches them. Where I live (Chicago suburbs), I’d estimate >50% of my orders are delivered by Amazon directly.

Quality of the deals is one thing. Prime Day undoubtedly requires a lot of work from Amazon’s staff (marketing, IT support, customer service, PR, not to mention order fulfillment and delivery).

Would the R-controlled Congress have replaced her? They refused to fill Scalia’s seat for 11 months because “it was an election year.”

I feel like this is an assumed risk; If I’m downloading the app, I know I need to manage my permissions and be aware of what is being shared. I don’t expect the G/O writers to also warn me that cheeseburgers aren’t entirely healthy, or that I should go for a walk around the block after downing a couple of sliders.
