My spouse and the many others sticking with their careers after being oncology ICU nurses during the worst of the pandemic. They know it’s a thankless job and they’re treated like shit, the healthcare system is a disaster, families and patients scream at them and attack them, the job certainly isn’t about money, it puts your physical and mental health at risk, but they’ll do it anyway for that one person who gets to ring the bell and say their cancer is no longer detectable.
I saw Snowpiercer on another comment so I assumed we were scraping the surface lol
Wong Kar-Wai’s films, particularly his 90s Hong Kong vibes of Chungking Express and its spiritual counterpart Fallen Angels.
Now that it’s out, it’s a load he no longer has to bear.
I could easily walk to a grocery store in 10 minutes; however, there’s no sidewalks, no streetlights if it was dark, and I’d have to cross a road with a speed limit of 55mph. On the way I’d pass a gun store, so maybe I could pick one up and pop off a couple rounds into the air to make a temporary crosswalk.

Oh yeah. I can’t speak for all of its spin-offs. Recipe standalone is good. But that’s a hell of a paywall.
If they want that commission, they’re going to earn it, starting with waxing down my new Nissan Altima fleet.
“You’ll hear from my lawyer” is the feckless cry of trash that’s getting ejected from an Applebees parking lot.
The NYT has its place. NYT polls are crap. Political coverage? Crap. Timely news coverage? Crap. The occasional long-form piece about an obscure musicology journal with only about three dozen subscribers worldwide that’s experiencing some crazy infighting? Stellar.
No need for the internet, all electronic toothbrushes have been compromised. They use ultrasonic tooth mapping technology to direct a miniature version of Havana Syndrome where we least expect it, causing the terrible affliction known as… gingivitis
Not as bad as Corey Feldman, I hate to say it
“3rd Reel Judy Garland” by Restiform Bodies. The whole thing is very dense, menacing, and centered around a bunch of extras waiting in casting, unusually. Very unique writing.
In South Carolina? First on-the-books in nearly 10 years.
My insurance bumped up the copay on primary care to make it less affordable than an urgent care visit, incentivizing us to get care with immense surcharges. But at least we can get a same-day appointment instead of waiting a month or two to see the most qualified and familiar person with our conditions. Fuck capitalism, as usual.
Alex Trebek: The first category is “other than that, how was the parade Mrs. Kennedy”
*Note: Some United flights may now divert underground to give The Boring Company more tax breaks
They dump fuel so they can safely land due to weight, as you guessed. In this case it was a cross-country trip, so the plane had a fair amount of fuel that needed to be offloaded.
I had a layover in Midway at maybe 7:30am once. Everyone — and I mean everyone — was drinking. Like, are you going to get the shakes between security and boarding?
And confiscated drugs while they were at it. Sorry, they “saved medications.”
