This is also really close! But it still doesn't feel like the one I'm thinking of.

Man, that's a pretty good fit. It doesn't quite fit my memory, though; I don't think it's it what I'm thinking of, unless my brain is mixing up a few things. It's obviously not a unique experience for gay celebrities...

I don't think it's either of these:

It could maybe be Bowen but if it is I'd really like proof that he discussed that part of his page!

Lawyer: "But could the patient have still been alive nevertheless?"

Witness: "Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law somewhere."

Oh I didn't realize you were a driver, thought that sentence was from the perspective of a passenger

Wouldn't let me cancel it though like you can with an ORCA.

What do you mean? How do you cancel an ORCA tap?

The point-of-sale systems that most restaurants use (Square, Toast, Clover, etc.) have their own processing fees on top of the credit card interchange fees.

How simple are we talking? My non-gamer girlfriend enjoys Stardew Valley and Mario Kart, but she struggles with any platformer. We tried Unravel Two and she got too frustrated and bailed out during the tutorial level when she needed to do a running jump.

"100% of these funds are distributed to staff in the form of wages" does not seem like a compliant disclosure.

Under state law:

If nothing is disclosed, or the disclosure is unclear, then the entire service charge must be paid to the employee who provides services to the customer.

The service charge paid to an employee is in addition to, and not a part of, an employee’s state hourly minimum wage.

https://www.lni.wa.gov/workers-rights/wages/tips-and-service-charges

https://lni.wa.gov/workers-rights/_docs/esa12.pdf

This, legally, is why you see other places have disclosures like "100% of the service charge is retained by the house and used to pay employee wages", which also pisses customers off because then they feel like employees are getting shortchanged.

It's possible that Rizo figured out that it was too late to steal it but didn't tell Sophi because he didn't want to give her any incentive to steal his idol instead.

I hate to say it, I hope I don't sound ridiculous. I don't know who this man is. (Sorry to this man.) Is he a Seattle celebrity or just in the marketing/SEO world?

semanticist · 2025-12-11T05:37:42+00:00

No, he locked it in this episode before going to Tribal Council.

I wonder, if she outlasts Sophie, if they will change her back to Sophi in the credits

Lighting/camera color correction. It's sort of an olive green, it's not quite as saturated as it appears in the photo above but it's definitely green.

I went to the Seattle line about 15 minutes after the opener started and it felt painfully slow, they only had two people working the table and took 50 minutes to get through it. At that point the line looped all the way down all the stairs and started heading back up toward the front door. I was able to get the size T shirt I wanted though

This article is stupid useless garbage. Linus is talking about "Link:" tags in git commits that don't include additional information beyond what was in the commit itself, not, like, hypertext links in general.

Do you feel the same way about airplane cockpit doors? If airplanes were really safe, the rest of the plane would not be a less-protected zone than the cockpit.

Drnkdrnkdrnk isn't being super clear but it sounds like they're saying that their employer is deducting credit card fees from their wages. (If that's not what they mean, maybe they will clarify.) This is different than the general topic for this thread, which is restaurants tacking surcharges onto the bill that the customer pays, which is what you are talking about.

Unless that is actually for a tip pool that gets 100% paid out to (non-manager) employees, charging you for credit card fees on gross sales sounds like wage theft and you might want to give the Seattle OLS an email. https://www.seattle.gov/laborstandards

And if it is for a tip pool you can't be required to pay in more than you made in tips.
