Too early to tell but probably not hugely different on substance.

Apparently bullshit.

oooof Ashton :(

fun fact, here at least firefighters need to pass a fitness test that includes a treadmill run with full gear and a mask. to train for it they run while wearing two N-95s

so it does add some restriction but probably not enough to worry about

I hate how much it annoys me that the video title claims he ran a marathon, seemingly he only does the 10k. valor stealing!!!

Alcohol.

can everyone just chill out on the fuckin Thematic Anaylsis until they’re done airing the episodes

obviously the creepy sexism is the real issue here but also, man you are WAY too old to start using “u”

every strategist shitting on them in public and making one last pivot to obama 08 messaging…excellent stuff

my only hot take is that I’m sick of seeing AI “art” posted and reposted both earnestly and for dunking on. just stop posting that shit! I’m sick of looking at the slop!

I ended up tracking down an AMA where someone asked about this very feature and a year ago they said it was “definitely” in the pipeline but no ETA was mentioned. Would be great to see it but I’ll happily let them cook at their own pace.

Therapy and medication did nothing for me either and I still have my struggles, but doing a lot more physical stuff (not just exercise but meaningful physical activity IE certain types of volunteer work), getting 7-8 hrs sleep as many nights as possible and strategically limiting screen time has definitely helped.

Oh, and weed (and hallucinogens once a year or so).

more and more he is giving me “UK macron” vibes

ah yes the “if everyone is mad at me I must be doing something right” school of governance

Rookie numbers. Throw another digit on there at least.

this was how I learned there was a nanowrimo non-profit, I thought it was just a thing people did

fuck…china is in trouble

Someone else might disagree, but I think you’re better off waiting to see if you get an interview for the first position, then mention in the interview that you saw multiple postings and indicate your interest in / suitability for one of the part-time positions.

I highly recommend the miniseries Escape at Dannemora which Stiller also directed a bunch of and also features Arquette in a key role.

I think this show stands out more than it normally would at the moment because 99.9% of current TV is absolute dogshit. It’s not high art but it’s made with attention to detail, effective use of style and a coherent sensibility that’s not just “here’s more slop.”

I do kind of miss the simplicity of s1 (which I admired for finding a great way to capture the unreality of office life and the feeling of “going to work”) but I’m down for where things are headed. My only concern is that in the post-Lost landscape showrunners seem a little too eager to demonstrate they’re going to cross every t and dot every i, and not leave the viewer hanging on any mysteries…personally I like a little ambiguity and lingering mystery. Hopefully they don’t feel the need to didactically over-explain.

Pretty funny to learn that the show’s creator used to work for a company that made doors.
