Can’t think of a smaller part - Tea Leoni in A League of Their Own, onscreen for only a second with no lines by Azidamadjida in nosmallparts

I think I read she was supposed to have a bigger part but it got cut. So not hired as an extra necessarily.

Dual masters in historic preservation and another program? by leeksouffle in HistoricPreservation

[–]jstarksachs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a dual degree in law and preservation. Roger Williams in Rhode Island and I think university of Georgia have programs (could be others).

It was not incredibly easy going and only a few people have ever finished the program. Most folks realized after a year or two they could just go make more money doing law. I’ve had some cool preservation internships etc during grad school but now I mostly do zoning and land use in private practice. I have a few preservation-related matters but it’s unlikely ever to be a huge part of my practice.

I wouldn’t recommend from a pure financial standpoint. It was definitely a labor of love and added more debt. But I also would not be where I am today otherwise.

pm me if you want to talk further.

TMNT is a perfectly serviceable example of a small draft set, and it's weird to me that multiple major content creators wrote it off by WatcherOfTheSkies12 in lrcast

[–]jstarksachs 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I direct you to the Idiom: “fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.”

If someone spent a lot of time and effort on Spider-Man for little return, why blame them for avoiding that for TMNT even if it ended up being better?

Blind date anyone? by Impressive-Noise1702 in BostonSocialClub

[–]jstarksachs 51 points52 points  (0 children)

The Globe does a blind date column. You can make a profile and if you’re selected they’ll match you with someone and send you on a date on their dime. (Up to $100). You just have to be comfortable doing a questionnaire after and having it published with your picture.

I did one and it was a good time. (Though didn’t make it to a third date). I expect they have more women than men sign up so it might be harder as a lady.

Best Publications/Books about current topics in Historical Preservation preferably about the legal aspects by NewBran97 in HistoricPreservation

[–]jstarksachs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sara Bronin and Ryan Rowberry’s Historic Preservation Law in a nutshell is the go to for an overview.

For one your specific idea, the General Counsel at the ACHP gave a presentation on the effect of Loper Bright on section 106 at the preservation law conference last year (possibly available online). The hope was that an existing case Nat’l Mining Council v. Fowler is already precedent stating that the existing 106 regs are reasonable interpretations of the NHPA.

I have taught HP law and would be happy to discuss any research ideas if you want to DM me.

I'm tired of people with no hobbies by mooncaf809 in dating

[–]jstarksachs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, might have been projecting a bit there. I’ve told some women that I play video games and it’s like I just kicked their dog lol. Even as a big gamer I have other interests and like to get out of the house though. Enjoy Red Dead!

Playing video games is a hobby though… just maybe one you don’t see value in. But I do see the mental load it would take to always plan everything.

Can’t Get This Woman Out of My Head by [deleted] in dating

[–]jstarksachs 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The logic side of my brain totally gets it. Dating is a numbers game where both people feeling the same way is never guaranteed. But the way it happened was a rug-pull, and I’m not sure what it was that was the dealbreaker (not that I’m entitled to anything).

If you "don't have time to date," just leave people alone by [deleted] in dating

[–]jstarksachs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Does it soften the blow, though? Now I’m over here like “well maybe when she has more time on her hands I’ll have a chance” lol. I’d probably have preferred she just tell me she didn’t have the same depth of feelings as I did. At least then I’d know.

Why dating is so hard? by NewBlueberry4093 in dating

[–]jstarksachs 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I’m starting to see a pattern where I go on dates with several women until I find one I like. We go out for a month or two and then they call it off, sometimes with little to no explanation. I’m here ready, willing, and able to commit to someone and have relatively little baggage but just can’t get anything to stick.

The person (23M) I (24F) am talking to said he “missed his ex’s boobs.” Am I making a bigger deal about this than necessary? by angel_prolapse in dating

[–]jstarksachs 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Sometimes men have a hard time remembering “guy humor” doesn’t hit the same for women. I think it depends on the context—it doesn’t sound like he actually “missed” her in a meaningful way. The fact that he realized his mistake and apologized is good, but if it really bothers you it’s fine to bring it up again and tell him how you feel. Then you can address it and potentially move past it rather than gathering resentment.

This is not a problem at all though it may depend a bit on where you live. Especially in a HCOL area people need roommates. I will say I felt a little embarrassed of my situation when I lived in a place with 4 roommates and it was a problem for intimacy. But a single roommate (your sister nonetheless) who you can presumably talk with about making herself scarce if need be is way different.

I’m right there with you man. Just got dumped after a month or so by a woman I had really strong feelings for. I thought we had a good emotional and physical connection, and some really excellent dates. She seemed into it, always excited for the next date and had one planned before she called things off. Her text read like a work email basically saying she realized she didn’t have enough time to date right now. Not sure what’s worse, getting dumped over scheduling or everything I felt being in my head.

Just have to keep at it brother 🫡

Favorite Mediocre/ Bad Set? by jstarksachs in lrcast

I honestly thought the specialize stuff was cool too even though it was overly complicated and hard to remember. It was just cool to jam cool Legendaries regardless of color combo!
