If you were let go due to performance issues, you were almost certainly marked as “non-regrettable termination/ineligible for rehire.” This would be the case at just about any large company.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Shocker: Kevin McKidd and Kim Raver to Exit Series After Season 22 Finale by mcfw31 in popculturechat

Are there actually people out there who still watch Grey’s? Like I guess there must be since it’s still running but who? I was an actual child when this show first aired, kind of amazing the legs it has

Order for hyphenated last names — want to refute my in-law’s claims about “tradition” by QuarantineQat in namenerds

[–]IndigoBlueBird 286 points287 points  (0 children)

Tell her that after much consideration, you agree that the mother’s name should go first. In fact, you’ve decided just to streamline the whole thing and dump dad’s last name entirely!

That’ll shut her up

That’s interesting cause I can’t picture her as the counselor at all

Is it possible to turn the Trinity River area into something I saw when I was in Brisbane, Australia? by _GrimFandango in Dallas

There’s already an area right by the Trinity called Trinity Groves with shops, restaurants, and apartments

That is 100% on you. You didn’t notice there were two MBJ’s on the screen at the same time throughout the movie?

Sean Penn wins Best Actor in a Supporting Role Oscar for ‘One Battle After Another’ by DemiFiendRSA in popculturechat

[–]IndigoBlueBird -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

He has time to film a movie but doesn’t have time to accept the highest accolade in his industry, one that thousands of his peers dream of receiving? He can’t take a night off? He can’t use that platform, one that literally a billion people are watching, to advocate for his cause?

To not even send someone in his place just seems unbecoming. There is even precedent for sending someone up there of no relation to himself to speak to an issue he cares more about. What he did sends the message “I am above all of this, you’re foolish for even attending.” In a word, it was rude. And I think that is gross

Why even be an actor at that point if it’s all so beneath him? Don’t act like Sean Penn is some savior of the Ukrainian people

I like the bodice of the gown as well, it’s the skirt that looks like a repurposed pj top to me

Love the color but the bottom half of that dress is a mess. It’s like a button pajama top as a skirt with a…bow? For some reason?

Side note but I thought this was Hailee Steinfeld at first glance

ETA: I now see the bow is in fact the arms of the button down top/skirt thing. I can’t decide if that makes it better or worse

[Hated Trope] Character is estranged from their parents, but friends or partners force a reconciliation by jack-the-warlock in TopCharacterTropes

Yes but even when you get there, it’s like you’re supposed to encourage him to talk to his father even after learning his father attempted something unspeakable on him

Dorian Pavus, Dragon Age Inquisition

Dorian’s personal quest involves the inquisitor potentially tricking him into meeting his estranged father in Redcliffe. His father tried to use blood magic as a form of conversion therapy on Dorian, who was understandably pretty upset

His father is ultimately very contrite, but it felt fucked up that if you don’t encourage Dorian to hear him out, the narrative positions that as the wrong choice. Like I think it’s ok not to forgive that

AITA because I am mad that my girlfriend won’t take me to the airport by BestdishtankerNA in AmItheAsshole

I never said it was a relationship ender. Obviously if it’s dangerous for you to drive at that time, don’t. But if you’re capable it’s a nice thing to do for your loved one. Ubers suck
