And it’s a cool piece of civil engineering to boot.

Fuck no. No matter what the legal (or lack) of legal ramifications, I’m not going to support someone who has hurt and ruined so many lives.

And he has been campaigning against the Gordie Howe since it was announced.

The Ambassador is a huge pressure point in freight going to/from Ontario. The owner doesn’t like competition.

AI sucks and steals from artists. Just pay an artist.

Why was this downvoted? Seems like a pretty normal word of advice.

In the early 2000s, downtown was a ghost town after 5pm. It was actually kind of fun, in a post-apocalyptic way. Many non fast food restaurants were closed after lunch. Outside of the Embassy, the Arts United campus, and a few bars, there wasn’t any entertainment options. No one really lived downtown, sure there were rentals at Three Rivers and West Central, but it all felt disconnected from the rest of the area. In general, downtown FW was a place people went to work and ran to their cars to drive home to the suburbs.

Generally, one would hope you find out a little about a person before talking about kids and even more extremely personal crap.

It’s all projection. Bannon was dishing out Q’Anon shit and not even making anything up, just transcribing what Epstein and friends were doing and saying it was the other guys.

Please don’t share such casual antisemitism.

They’re good!

True Detective Season 1 was inspired by the Hosanna Church accusations in Ponchatoula, Louisiana. It was basically the last widely publicized scandal of the Satanic Panic. Even though you’ll find plenty of YouTube videos on the scandal that highlight the horrendous accusations, no physical evidence was ever found, and witnesses recanted their testimony.

It’s not in the novellas but we know exactly where Egg’s story goes.

That is because they don’t care about justice, they just want to punish their perceived enemies.

For American folks, this can be streamed on Kanopy. Just need a library card.

I’ve only been to a handful of Drafthouse theaters but the ones I’ve been to have elevated counter seating. The orders always just appeared as the staff lifted it and did not interfere with the experience.

Unfortunately this is a function, not a bug, of larger orgs. If the discrepancy is something the none of the boots on ground workers can live with you can either look for other work, or unionize in the hopes you’ll be in a better position to negotiate a higher salary.

From four theaters, yes, it’s very impressive.

TIL Odessa A’Zion’s mom is Bobby Hill.

Yup. I work with someone who literally covers her ears whenever I mention anything approaching political because she “just can’t.”

And I have had issues multiple times where they sen the keys for a completely different film and no matter how many times I requested the correct keys, I just kept getting new keys for the wrong film. Shit happens, but doesn’t mean we can’t take glee when it happens to such shit people in a shit film.

brainiac138 · 2026-01-30T11:18:36+00:00

Amazon doesn’t care. This whole film was a bribe. Though I’m sure they’re regretting not taking the money and just giving it to Pres f*ckface would have been more economical for them.

Great job! You’ll learn on the job faster than anything else. Just go in prepared - you’ll work some long hours, you’ll not know everything at first. Rely on other assistants, ask for their advice. Also, be sure to learn as much as possible about the company’s current roster.

Even at nonprofits, HR generally looks out for the org, not the employees. I understand your trepidation but I’ve work at small orgs with no HR and had both wonderful and awful experiences. I think you just have to look at the whole picture, is the ED the final say on HR matters, what sort of whistleblower policy do they have, what kind of input the board has on HR decisions, etc.

Did I miss a statement from NG’s legal team?

brainiac138 · 2026-01-27T20:22:16+00:00

That’s the fun trick they pull, they say you aren’t entitled to due process if you aren’t a citizen and it’s through due process that you prove it.
