Love triangles (especially in movies) feel like people are willingly putting themselves through misery once you realize that polyamory exists.

I feel like everyone (in these situations) would feel a lot happier if they realized that they're allowed to love more than one person.

Yesterday, WIRED learned that Madison Square Garden was suing us for our accurate reporting. We stand by our work. That’s why we’re removing the paywall from two of the MSG stories they don’t want you to read, making them free for everyone.

It makes me upset that you have to be pursuing music/spoken word/comedy as your primary career to qualify for the Recording Academy and submit for Grammy consideration. Imagine the number of Grammy-quality albums that don't get recognition because the artist was someone who was moonlighting as one.

Maybe I'm wrong for thinking that if you really care for someone, you shouldn't need a cheat sheet on the things you've learned about them through loving them? (Exception would be if you have a condition that affects your memory.) Only time it would feel necessary would be like a gift wishlist.

Like, I guess if the relationship is new, too, I'd understand it. But if you've been with someone for longer than a year, and you're still keeping a dossier on them... I'd have some questions about what's really going on.

Anyone able to find and confirm the date of that newspaper? The streets are saying this photo may not be from this year.

Mitch McConnell has released a photo and the first statement on his condition: "I was briefly unconscious and was taken to the hospital. While receiving excellent care over the past several weeks, I’ve also had to deal with a mild case of pneumonia."

12 July

Someone confirmed on the original thread that the article in the photo is from July 11 of this year. You win this time, Mr. Turtle.

Interesting Wing History fact, from your local wing historian: The creator of WingStop, Antonio Swad, was originally in the pizza business (and is today) and got the idea for the creation of WingStop after taking a trip to Atlanta, Georgia and visiting Taco Mac (one of the 2 OG Atlanta wing spots).

24 June

At the time (early 90s), he believed the idea was novel because there were very few restaurants that were selling wings as their primary offering. But he went all in on the idea, and clearly, things worked out.

Even if you really believed that Karmelo was guilty, 35 years is wildly excessive given the circumstances. I hope they appeal the verdict and request a true jury of his peers that understand that "touch me and see what happens" isn't premeditation, but a warning that "I will be defending myself."

My problem is that my brain tells me if I don't respond in an internet argument, I've lost. But honestly, I think I'd probably have won many more internet arguments (and saved my blood pressure and sanity) if I had just said what I had to say and just shut the fuck up.

I wish movie theaters would lean into the "I'm sneaking in my own snacks" culture, and team up with a Door Dash or Grub Hub (or with local restaurants) to bring in better/more affordable food. Similar to how breweries will sometimes have rotating food trucks, they could have a rotating kitchen.

31 May

I imagine the reason they don't is because concessions make more money than tickets... but! what a fantastic experience it would be.

Honestly? Everything. Cable TV Landlines Dial Up The PS1 Community gatherings Third Spaces (the Mall, in particular) Hell, even movie theaters. The world has changed significantly in my 30+ years here.

As I've gotten older, I've really started to appreciate dubbed anime over subbed simply because it allows me to look away from the screen when I need to. My only issue is that I still watch my shows with subtitles, and there are very rarely subs for the dub... so the captions never match, lol.

24 May

On one hand, it's cool because I get to see what changes in dialogue they've made from the sub to the dub, but on the other hand... it can get confusing on a show with a lot of intricate detail.

Reminder that only 8% of law students are Black, and only 5% of lawyers are Black. Erasing diversity from law schools and their admission practices is exactly how we bring that number to 0.
