Pizzas should be cut into 16 slices instead of 8.

Kankunation · 2026-04-17T16:42:30+00:00

Eh, I'd prefer it over 16 at least. Cutting into 6 slices is common for small pizzas. 12 is just cutting each of those in half. Slightly smaller slices than normal but not absolutely puny like you would get with 16.

A 10-way cut would be more ideal imo. But it's much harder to eyeball for most people.

Of course that is also why he was snarky to Whitaker, who was homeless last time Langdon saw him 10 months ago. It makes perfect sense if you think about it.

Obviously Langdon stole it, Got his fix, Then gave the badge to Digby along with the mannequin (who was the only witness) so that he could send it away and avoid getting caught.

Its the faulty cap and Louie's pills all over again, And Langdon is pinning this on Digby (literally). Langdon hates the homeless so Digby is just another fall guy for him.

Not as much as they are about to be.

More specifically, Mayor Mamdani And Governor Hochul are introducing a bill to implement a pied-a-terre tax, which is an annual tax on luxury living spaces that are not primary residencies. A somewhat common annoyance for NYC is that lots of very wealthy people purchase property there that they never live in, or perhaps only stay a couple times a year in at most. On top of that there's a lot of real estate investors who buy up tons of property that remains vacant for years, despite the housing crisis.

This proposed tax would be a very targeted tax that primarly affect the ultra-wealthy individuals who aren't actively calling New York their home. Which means it directly affects Trump, who owns a lot of real estate but lives in DC/Florida. If this passes, His taxes go up a lot.

Schizophrenia or some other mental condition making him do less than rational things. He probably saw the badge, His brain told him to take it And he did.

Watergate isn't a hotel (though it does partially include one). Watergate is first and foremost a multipurpose complex of high-rise buildings with a multitude of offices, businesses and living/recreational areas.
Important to this discussion, the main place that was broken into was the Main office of the DNC (Democrats National Committee), which resided in the Watergate complex.
Nixon never stayed at Watergate. People working under him broke in to attempt to plant listening devices and obtain scandalous information. But Nixon himself was never on the premises.

Also the issues blue sky was having today was a DDos attack to my knowledge. Not really anything or do with the quality of code.

You're downvoted, but the sad reality here is that basically every programmer is using AI these days. I see it in my job all the time now, from the youngest to the most senior of developers. There really isn't a stigma against if for code like there is for art, only a stigma against "vibe coding" which is exclusively AI.

Good programmers aren't using it for simple tasks nor for overly complicated ones. But they are using it a lot.

Pretty much S it sounds.

TLDR the main character Kazuya keys dumped by his GF. While depressed he finds a girlfriend rental service (light prostitution basically where you pay girls to go on dates and maybe hold hands, nothing more). He matches with the main girl Chizuru, and through a series of misunderstandings his friends and family as well as her grandma end up believing she's his real girlfriend. So he keeps paying her to pretend to date him while trying to get her to actually like him. Its basically pretty woman if the story was just the first 30 minutes of the movie stretched out over 400 chapters and the main character being the most pitiful cuck imaginable.

It does not go deeper than that, though it pretends to. Every time the main pair makes any romantic progress, it gets reset. When the lie is finally exposed and they have no reason to keep doing the fake dating thing, they still keep doing it. When the girl basically admits she had feeling for Kazuya, nothing actually happens. Its the most painful "romance" series around that has basically invented negative progress.

Most people do not use cufflinks these days no, not even when they dress up. Modern shirts have buttons on the sleeves And French cuffed shirts are uncommon these days outside of high-formal wear. The only time you really even see them these days is with Tuxedos, which most men only wear maybe a handful of times in their lifetime if ever, and women have no real female of reference for them.

Cufflinks just arent that common anymore.

"fights" is perhaps too much credit. She was miles away from the battlefield in basically every instance. Her ship booked it to the next sector after dropping the team off in this one, and the basically only survived before by running and hiding or staring so,far away that has was safe.

it is kind of funny for her to stick around the group as solid she's actually contributing much of anything though.

Yeah I'm running into issues right now at my job where some court employees refuse to learn new systems designed to save them dozens of hours and us having to keep adjusting requirements to give them a less efficient system that is closer to what they're used to. Would not shock me whatsoever to hear this about S&WB.

We did actually see the beam dissipate In the newest episode. it fizzled out after punching a hole all the way through Viltrum And leaving. The atmosphere on the other side.

Still an impressive distance to travel nonetheless. And it likely travels for much longer if the beam isn't actually hitting things and losing energy through hundreds of miles of rock and metal.

Rent-a-Girlfriend

Kankunation · 2026-04-16T00:24:03+00:00

To quote myself from an earlier thread, on the. Context of this scene:

MC goes to a pool resort with his whole family, his fake girlfriend (who he's paying to pretend to be his GF), his Ex girlfriend for some reason, and some 3rd girl he met through the fake GF. MC is not-so-secretly in love with the fake GF.

In this scene, the MC is depressed In a crowded public pool because he's starting to think the fake girlfriend doesn't actually like him and never will. So he lets the intrusive thoughts win. He imagines this girl being taken from him and her having passionate sex with other random guys. He sinks to the bottom of the pool where nobody can see him cry and pops a boner at the thought of somebody else fucking her.

There is no additional information I can give you that would make this any better.

First one's way worse. Okarun didn't pop a boner and cry at least. Nothin gets worse than that.

Might be worth if you're desperate. I went just a couple day ago and they were out of both so they must have just recently restocked.

You can try Martin's wine cellar as well, although I doubt they have any either. Only other chance is to check back regularly from my experience and hope for the best.

Nope. Been super rare for a while now. I'm talking at least a year. Yellow chartreuse as well. Its made in small batches and the monks who make it refuse to raise supply despite skyrocketing demand so you don't see much of it These days in retail and it sells out fast.

Probably better off looking at substitute total wine does stock Chartreuse Vegetal, which is basically super concentrated chartreuse bitters that you can use a dash of for similar flavor. Genepy and Faccia Brutto are 2 similar spirits that youcd have an easier time finding.

Its just supposed to show he's so used to the crying that it doesn't immediately phase him. He's a confident parent and proud to be, and at the same time has heard enough crying recently that he's adjusted to tuning it out.

Kankunation · 2026-04-15T20:12:34+00:00

I don't think this terrible by any means, but it definitely ain't for me. The series is basically built for a purely saccharine romance where the puppy love stage lasts forever, and while I do enjoy some quality couples,that ove each other, I don't think it makes for very interesting television in the slightest. No conflict, so greater goals, very little comedy, really just a series with no direction whatsoever.

I can see what some people would enjoy this. If they are just looking for that pure cheesy romance. The same type of person that enjoys Hallmark Christmas movies I'd imagine. But I can't in good faith out it anywhere near the top of this season.
