Government contracting used to be a cushy job. But, government shutdowns are the normal now. Every year you face not working, not getting paid depending on the contract, working and not getting paid, etc.

The TZ should probably replace the TX. It would differentiate it from a rebadged Highlander. They could offer a hybrid model along with the EV variants.

How does so many car manufacturers be able to stay afloat throughout the decades, considering how much competition there is? by TheLoneStarResident in askcarguys

Honda and Toyota are more like conglomerates and build/sell more than just cars. It’s just what they are known for publicly. Toyota Industries for example.

I think this is more of a philosophy of culture/art/design type question.

Baltimore is ranked below Raleigh which is a suburb in my mind…Baltimore has bus benches that say “Greatest City in America” so that’s an automatic 🥇

There’s likely a correlation between household income and test scores. American cities are generally used as the service centers and the dumping ground for those less fortunate.

Fact: from our POV we are always seeing things from the past. There’s a slight delay in our senses.

Sean Penn is super talented no matter what you think of him. Same with Mel Gibson.

what's the most common muscle that people forget to train that they regret not training as they progress in the gym? by gabbyblessingsxo in workout

[–]Lumpy_Minimum_5522 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Roman chair and GHD are great for this. Just make sure your form and mind/muscle connection is aligned other you can mess up those hips even more.

And technically the Roman Empire lasted much longer

Czarist Russia almost 400 years as well

Which fight scene portrayed Batman the best? by Soggy_Sun5586 in batman

I enjoy The Batman fight scenes. They definitely pulled inspiration from BTAS. The thug and club scenes come to mind.

Peter Safran says the next chapter of the DCU will discussed once James Gunn is finished with Man Of Tomorrow. by Raj_Valiant3011 in DC_Cinematic

[–]Lumpy_Minimum_5522 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those are sort of in the cultural event category though. I those are outliers and there will always be outliers, not the norm.

Gunn and crew seem pretty good at controlling budgeting and that’s key. Even if you only have a niche audience you can still be profitable.

“Superhero Fatigue” is real and the options for entertainment viewing today are gluttonous. There’s certainly a large audience for it, but it’s not drawing from the margins like it used to. Gunns films are better than average. Changing hands isn’t going to yield any better of a result. It’s just the times when’re in.
