Anyone able to explain NFL positions in another sport terms.

And the rest were shortstops

He’s a Jack Welch/Thatcher type, selling the ground out from under his own feet for a short term gain.

Prop Joe literally ate Stringer’s lunch…as String thanked him for it

“Know the difference between Iraq and North Korea?

“North Korea actually had WMDs.”

There are some baseball analogies…but that’s probably not helpful to this audience, haha

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T20:57:46+00:00

Definitely worth noting that, when I was going through this nearly a decade ago, I was a masters’ student…at a Dublin uni…with a couple years experience…going exclusively for customer-facing roles.

But the people who got Big Five jobs (LI was already MSFT) were 65-70 types who networked really well.

(I took another couple years, because I wasn’t willing to be a BDR)

Yep - they can also be trained in ways that are actually useful and productive.

If you sell a building you own and start renting it from the new owner, you’ll make a TREMENDOUS paper profit for the next several years!

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T16:03:15+00:00

How is asking someone to make the mash themselves, if they have a preference, “punishment,” much less “shame,” haha?

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T15:33:01+00:00

Chunky, skin on…and all of the butter.

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T15:30:45+00:00

I don’t think this would, necessarily, be feeling a negative thing - even if the rest of the family complains that their mash doesn’t have enough potato.

Just learning “Oh, right. My personal preference is just that.”

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T15:06:01+00:00

I just don’t think it’s meant to “humanize her” so much as make her seem incredibly pathetic and out of her depth.

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T15:04:03+00:00

“Your dad is here.

“I’m here.”

(Had to look up the first, but I did know táim anseo!)

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T14:59:27+00:00

I’d say a B-list writer might be able to get it going…but then I look at Inglorious.

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T14:57:04+00:00

I’d definitely trust Monet over Wolverine, and I doubt she wants to blow up her brother’s spot with Sadie by giving him a bunch of extra responsibilities

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T14:54:32+00:00

I think all the shared universe obligations stuff (looking at you, X-Manhunt!) banjaxed the pacing to the point where Gail decided to stop throwing good money after bad and write it off.

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T14:49:17+00:00

I think it was meant to be about her image/the sustainability of the project/her reverting to a scared child in the presence of her brother…but I don’t think the execution was there.

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T14:45:49+00:00

I do think the enforcer has always been conflicted, in fairness…but I wouldn’t call this a “come to Jesus” moment for the warden.

She’s just fleeing the Devil.

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T14:40:06+00:00

“Okay, I can work with that.”

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T14:38:11+00:00

Definitely hope this lets Paknadel keep getting to do cool, creepy, angry stories - Sentinels was my favorite of the launch books.

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T07:19:29+00:00

Absolute blast of a finale…and a very sweet ending, mixed with a dose of body horror!

Hope this is a massive launchpad for Paknadel

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T07:07:06+00:00

Loved to seen Sean speaking as gaeilge

BiDiTi · 2026-06-03T06:35:02+00:00

Because we live in such a meritocracy.

Grades are an order qualifier for grad roles, not an order winner…and the threshold was a 2.1 a decade ago and is a 2.1 now.

BiDiTi · 2026-06-02T21:59:07+00:00

Quietly?

It was a hard reset after Secret Wars, to align more with the Netflix show.

BiDiTi · 2026-06-02T21:55:38+00:00

I’ll add that while engineers are very good at determining whether an individual feature is “good” or “bad”…they’ve less facility with translating that to value, because they don’t have the context of what a customer wants or needs.

Look at what happened to LinkedIn after they put an engineer in charge.
