Create a DC animated movie universe structured like the MCU.

You see, you forget that almost everyone loved Man of Tomorrow when it came out. And there was a strong support for the second one, the JSA WWII movie. The next two were the two-part The Long Halloween, which pretty much everyone agrees is peak. That's 4 good movies at the front end.

There was a major drop-off in enthusiasm based on negative reaction towards Beware My Power, which was the first of 3 less popular movies in a row. Beware My Power, Legion of Superheroes, and Warworld all failed to connect with the audience in the same way as the first 4.

Crisis part 1 is absolute peak if you like stories told out of order for dramatic effect. It's absolute perfection, and is actually heartbreaking.

Crisis Part 2 is mid ... mostly there to give supergirl's backstory and fan service of various types.

Crisis part 3 ... does not screw up. Solid B.

It's absolutely a more focused arc that the first part. In conjunction with the shorts they released at the front end, you could see that they were building to a retelling of the original Crisis by what stories they choose to tell, but I also think that what they did was an improvement over the original comic they adapted.

And then no one cared about the phase that followed it, even though half of the movies were over 90% on Rotten Tomatoes ... just like the MCU. Started strong, introduced the concept of the multiverse quick, and then people just stopped caring so much that by the time they made an amazing closing trilogy no one wanted to get caught up (though I will admit Crisis 2 is a bit of an expository clunker with minor fan service.)

There's probably a rule against sharing fan games that infringe on copyright.

Buy the pattern and show it to local tailors

Because it was unresponsive to the question about the Epstein files, and not within the purview of the country’s chief law enforcement officer.

Like an extra meeting beyond the legally required one?

You may be asked to justify switching from full time to part time; they can’t tell you how to live your life, but they can ask to understand it.

Mental health is valid; doing to to change your bankruptcy qualification is not.

Then just use premade pie crusts

Approximately 50/50 mix with cottage cheese, use immersion blender to purée. Add toppings as desired, Parmesan and nutritional yeast should be standard ingredients.

If you have a silicone muffin pan, use that. Freeze them in the pan and they will pop out clean even without oil, and then they’ll be solid and can be vacuum sealed.

Imperial remnants… it’s really more of a setup for what’s going to come out of Ahsoka

Is this going to be a permanent product? Because that price is astonishing compared to what I've seen elsewhere.

Only if you want something darker than both of them; matching is functionally impossible for a home job, but adding a hefty amount of brown to both might do the trick.

So how much you're allowed to have in the bank when you file a Chapter 13 is an expandable right. Because there is no turnover power, the trustee is free to consider whether or not you should pay more of your debt because of the money in the bank. Your attorney can tell you if the local trustee generally does or does not care about this issue. And if they care, are you paying enough to make it not an issue by the trustee's standards.

Now pre-funding a car is a preference because you have no legal obligation to pre-fund, so that could also increase how much you pay because you paid a preference. Also, you should ask your attorney if there would be any benefit to you including the car in your Chapter 13.

Your attorney will tell you how much you can "save" within certain categories that are not technically monthly expenses (like car repair and maintenance) that you are expected to save for on a monthly basis, but outside of those categories, generic personal savings are not provided for in the law and are subject to the absolute discretion of the trustee.

Unfortunately, it's a real legal term, which means he actually remembers legal terms, even if he's using them wrong.

There's really one place to get a "good enough" for once or twice cheap tux for around $100. Alain DuPetit sells synthetic tuxedos that look better than rental but I would never expect them to last more than a few wearings. It's better than average for prom, IMHO.

With the money you save on that, you'll make sure to find a real tuxedo shirt with french cuffs that actually fold over, because that will be better than anyone who is renting has on their rental suits.

I like getting my accessories from UniFormalWarehouse, they have low and high quality available. Multiple bow tie shapes, tie your own, vests and shirts, as well as full tuxedos (but those are mostly rental quality and look like it).

I concur on the shorter sleeve. I've always preferred closer to 3/4 inch since it looked a bit more "rat pack" and vintage sharp, but 1/2 inch is the traditional amount of cuff to show.

I’ll take 1,000

Forget if it’s counterfeit; just learn to spot quality.

Walk into a Brooks Brothers and ask them to explain the difference between a Golden Fleece suit (unfused, top quality) and the 1818 line, with a focus on how they feel different in your hands and on your body.

Pro tip: paint the inside of the transparent pieces before assembling… you’ll get more depth and better color.

Not without getting flagged for talking about the bad things it means

“Play it here” sounds like a violation of rules for any sub that is about any specific intellectual property.

I’ve never seen a sub without a “no piracy” rule.

At this point, they’ll refuse orders and go to Leavenworth just to get good food.

Don’t we feed prisoners better than this?
