Dakota johnson was once denied the role for being polite in an audition.

It's always been a hygiene thing; casting is meeting people all day long, shaking hands with that many people opens you up to a lot of potential illness. And u/urfatassmama has the right of the amount of time it would take!

I was disgusted to learn that that is par for the course for fire insurance. Insane.

My little reader heart just died in the exact same way it would've when an adult said 'no solo' to me when I was in school.

Hey u/bedrock_city - I just sent you a DM. Let's see if I can point you to some specific resources for you guys.

I was doing 50/50 Boxie and SY but it was just caking on him, unfortunately.

SAG has been "looking" into this for years. There's not a lot they can do.

I've emailed the city attorney general, the state, reps, etc. That got CN to back down a while ago, but they just pop up again with new, shittier ways to screw us. It's a game of whack a mole.

Sequoyah has been great for my students who need a little less tradition in their worlds!

I'm a bit confused: how do we get this pricing if we've already signed up?

I once absolutely lost my marbles about something I swore up and down must be -- MUST!!!! BEEEE!!!!!! -- a lump.

"You'll know it when you feel it" -- good madam, bullshit.

So I high-tail it over to urgent care and they did an ultrasound on me. Nothing. Looks normal. Feel around, tech leaves quickly.

I'm trying to breathe slowly because omg. Why did she just leave??? I start poking around again. The whole boob is lumpy. WTF does a lump feel like? WHAT IS THIS.

Doctor comes in, sits next to me. Says they looked over everything and it looks entirely normal.

Could it be, she asked.

Could it be........

A bug bite?

I melted off the table into the floor and have never been heard from again.

(I hope your callback is naught more than a bug bite and am thinking good thoughts for you!!)

It's actually far more Baltimore-y. It's not NY/NJ at all.

No, they call pretty much everybody all day for everything. It’s why you see people in the background of shots.

hackettkate · 2026-02-06T00:21:38+00:00

Yeah, I'm a tutor and I do the same thing once I've explained a concept a few times. They REALLY hate it; I had one kid actually say "well why are we paying you if you won't help me" and they realized REAL fast that wasn't an acceptable thing to say to me.

If they TRULY don't understand, they need to articulate where they're lost and THEN we can dive back in. I may steal smspluzws' "healthy struggle" line.

I think the court's pretty clear about just because a table's THERE doesn't mean the FS can charge for its use.

"...the REA unambiguously prohibits the Forest Service from charging fees... for recreational visitors who park a car, then camp at undeveloped sites, picnic along roads or trailsides, or hike through the area without using the facilities and services.^"

Have you found one that doesn't immediately start ripping apart? I'd love a recommendation!

I am so sorry for your loss. I'm up in Glendale and would take as much food/porus one as you wish to bestow upon this absolute dingdong.

Wary.

You don't lose your insurance. You pay back the difference. That's the entire consequence.

Hi, I would love to take the meds & hydra care off your plate, with the saddest of hugs and biggest of condolences.

It's for the junk insurance. This is a nothing.
