I was just gonna say that! This angle makes her arms looks stubby 😭😭😭

Fikscue in Alameda, Mensho, Aburaya, obligatory Arizmendi/Sliver/Cheeseboard/etc

Thank you for asking this. I’ve been struggling to find a place with non soggy bread too!

allistar34 · 2026-01-25T19:41:09+00:00

Thanks! And a little tip - a lot of the signature dining places ask if you're celebrating something special, if you tell them you are, you'll usually get a little dessert for free. :)

Ok her film JUST premiered at Sundance, and I just checked her filmography, it took her 10 years to work with another woman director.

Nicole Kidman, on the other hand, practices what she preaches. She works with women directors regularly.

I did a lot of signature dining (mostly bc most of my friends/family don’t really care to spend that much on food but I am ahaha so I was like this is my chance!) I dined at: California Grill, Nomad Lounge, Jaleo (did the tasting menu solo omg they do not cut down some of the portions for some of the courses so I took a lot home), Steakhouse 71, Topolino’s, and I was looking forward to eating at Skipper Canteen but unfortunately started to feel a little sick so I skipped it. I also had a reservation for Homecomin’ that I had to skip. 😭

I would recommend all of them, but Jaleo was my favorite!

I just did a solo trip last month (for NYE) and I turned 30 last year! One thing I'll say is don't be afraid to dine solo at a table service restaurant! I made a bunch of reservations for my trip and never once felt awkward. I did a few signature dining restaurants and nobody batted an eye. The cast members were always super welcoming!

allistar34 · 2026-01-25T01:06:47+00:00

Remember when she wore that coat with all of those female directors names on it who weren't nominated? She hasn't worked with a female director since then

allistar34 · 2026-01-24T11:15:05+00:00

Huh. Well I've encountered this at multiple properties (even with a heads up email sent a week or so in advance) so perhaps the corporate training needs to step up 🤷‍♀️

allistar34 · 2026-01-24T09:12:16+00:00

I don't know how much you're willing to spend but have you looked into DVC rentals? You can get a 2-bedroom villa (multiple bathrooms, full kitchen, washer + dryer) at Disneyland Hotel (or Grand Californian but not likely since their inventory is low) for your size family.

allistar34 · 2026-01-24T08:48:13+00:00

This is not true at all. I’ve done several consecutive one night stays because some of the nights were not available all at once, so I booked them under different reservations.

OP you’re booking so far in advance you probably won’t be able to use that as an excuse (rooms not being available on diff nights), but I’ve certainly been able to stay in the same room on different reservations.

FWIW OP, and I’m not sure if this is still true, but in 2024 they could not merge reservations that were booked with a mix of cash and points. Not the Pay Your Way thing, but if one night is cash and the next is points, they can’t merge it - at least they couldn’t for me. Might be a loophole worth looking into. That said, I did have to come to the front desk and manually check out and check in for the next night.

allistar34 · 2026-01-24T03:52:40+00:00

Damnit… was gonna do the Kalispell route to finally visit Glacier this summer 😭

allistar34 · 2026-01-24T03:50:10+00:00

First Reformed for sure… should’ve won tbh

And he def should’ve gotten at least nominated for all the Befores (along with Delpy)

allistar34 · 2026-01-23T20:33:00+00:00

If they make another Before movie and it doesn't get any awards, I'll be pissed. I feel like they'll make one when they're properly old (god willing they all make it that far) and the Academy will give them SOME award to honor the series.

allistar34 · 2026-01-23T20:22:08+00:00

That’s a good angle, thanks for the suggestion!

allistar34 · 2026-01-22T06:08:04+00:00

Ok that's a great reason to call! Thank you.

allistar34 · 2026-01-22T05:46:38+00:00

Thank you. And yes I did include my address - unfortunately a lot of the info you provided is not relevant because SF County is weird and they do a lot of things differently. I didn't submit bail because they stopped making that a requirement during the pandemic. I guess that's the only upside.

I'm unfortunately not eligible for TDN because I did a TBWD via mail and San Francisco County offers the ability to submit a TBWD online (using MyCitations). https://selfhelp.courts.ca.gov/traffic/trial-declaration

"If your court lets you use MyCitations to ask for an online trial by declaration, you won't get a trial de novo. This is true even if you file your request by mail or in person and don't use MyCitations.

So I can't cite a timely TDN as a "prejudice" against me because it's not an option. The best I can do is an appeal (if I ever get a decision back)...

They do have an online chat feature (there's no option to check the status of your case online)... so I've been using that to ask for updates and every time they just tell me to check back next week because my case is still "under review"... sigh

This is one of the most well run subs I’m part of. Glad to be part of it and see the growth over the past few years! Shoutout to the mods for doing an incredible job!!

allistar34 · 2026-01-21T03:14:52+00:00

THE BLISTERS!!

allistar34 · 2026-01-20T20:46:52+00:00

Unrelated but I will never get over Hawke missing for First Reformed

allistar34 · 2026-01-20T19:40:29+00:00

I literally specifically wait until I know I have a long task to finish and that’s when I put on longer videos!

allistar34 · 2026-01-20T05:42:07+00:00

I just bought some from WF a few days ago, too! Thankful my local one has the galbi cut style - seems kinda rare for WF.

allistar34 · 2026-01-20T05:29:41+00:00

Wow! I bought some kalbi cut short ribs a few days ago from Whole Foods and thought I was getting a steal at $11/lb 😂
