@Horace said in Hollywood Legs Trivia: I'm not aware of ever having heard of her. That makes two of us.

Always eye roll worthy when people who identify with an "oppressed" group get self righteous about tragic stuff that happens to other people who identify with that same group, and they start yelling and screaming, confident and secure that nobody will tell them to shut up while they are having their victim-by-association tantrum. Meanwhile, Pete's life is a privilege-fest, and it always has been but for some sads as a teenager, as he came to terms with his attraction to men. As crosses to bear go, that's barely one of them anymore, except maybe for cowards who make it a much bigger deal than it ever needed to be.

Blasphemy, pure and simple. That'll get a ticket straight to Hell.

@jon-nyc said in Popcorn time - Tax edition: It’s not up to them. Treasury hands them over. Trump was trying to delay until Jan 3. Ah, I was not aware.

@jon-nyc said in Funny, I haven't seen this before...: @Jolly said in Funny, I haven't seen this before...: @taiwan_girl said in Funny, I haven't seen this before...: 700 police injured. At least 11 people killed. $1.2B damage Vs. 140 police injured (I think that's inflated, but let's go with it). 1 person killed (unarmed, violently breaking through a door towards where the congressmen were) $1.5M damage Yes, I can certainly see how those figures are equal.. NNTTM. But keep in mind the macro picture doesn't really matter for any one individual's criminal proceeding, it's about what they themselves did. And the fact that they did this at the Capitol threatening elected officials actually does matter to individual criminal proceedings. English Common Law vs. Napoleonic Code. If we were under NC, that argument would work. English Common Law, not so much.

Laying off 1500 (8%): https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/cars/news-blog/carvana-takes-another-hit-44497639 The cuts, along with the closing of some locations and the elimination of some work shifts, are all meant to save costs. A source told Bloomberg that it's because of the "challenging economic environment". The cuts will affect operations, technology, and corporate roles. Those who are let go will get separation/severance pay through at least the new year, plus three months of healthcare coverage and unvested equity awards via cash payments. Based in Tempe, Arizona, Carvana is struggling with a cratering stock price and cash outflow. That's because after seeing a surge of success in 2021 as the lack of new-car supply drove used-car prices up, the market has shifted. Used-car prices are falling while inflation is rising and that has negatively impacted consumer demand for pre-owned vehicles. As of Thursday, Carvana stock had plummeted 96 percent during the year. The stock is just under $7 as I type this.

Spoken like a true partisan hack...

THat's a hell of a dovetail!

I confess that was me. I call it the blowfish.

@LuFins-Dad said in My stupid middle-aged man project for the week.: If you really wanted to test your skill you would work with stone… Or the Speaker's husband

If they had fathers, those fathers would have told them to look both ways before fleeing from the cops.

@89th said in Minnesoooooooota credit: You're going to make me cry, and I'd rather not have ice on my face today I might be on to something! If you look at the map, there's definitely a correlation between warm weather and fiscal irresponsibility.

Somebody's been swayed by gobbling. Again.

Wow

Even back in the 70s we had a 5-star cafeteria at 2-star prices. But that was only for lunch and only at HQ in Dallas. The late night crowd in the hinterlands were on their own.
