  1. If I was a professor, half my emails would be to the governor asking to quit asking me for dick pics.
  2. Wait until they require automatic admission to UT for home schooled kids. Fuck them public school kids.
  3. I’m surprised it’s not a tax that is redistributed to O&G companies for lose profits.
  4. “A hard fucking job”. You answered your own question on why it costs so much. You forgot disposal, insurance, payroll expenses, etc.
  5. MODOK’s face looked like a grainy film projection. Just weird how they thought that was good enough.
  6. Video from Florida but you know this gets our Leg’s dick hard.

    Got here at 6:45 and walked up to Valentina’s with only 2 people in line. Seems like it’s getting better quickly though. I’m sure the bogus sellout streak will continue.
  9. He should ask for some restaurant credit to be thrown in.
  10. HEB needs to bring back those Texas shaped tortilla chips that were avocado-Julio's MSG seasoning. Those were legit.
  11. As long as she doesn’t get divorced from that trust fund guy, she’ll never work and never have wages to garnish.
  12. Saw these at HEB today. Did not buy but was intrigued. Are they wavy Lay's seasoned with Funyon's or are they wavy Funyon's? Is there a difference?
  13. My wife’s fine was sent to me. I assume because I’m listed first on the registration. My argument will be I wasn’t driving and you can’t give a ticket to a car.
  14. 3 episodes in and my favorite show has become unbearable. I hate the flash forwards so much. They absolutely ruin Midge. This better get better quickly.
  15. Deciding to move all your creatives from Los Angeles, the epicenter of entertainment creativity, to fucking bumfuck suburban Florida should've gotten Chapek the axe instantly. That was an early sign he didn't know what he was doing.
  16. The first question you should ask an employee when they decide they want to work towards becoming a manager is "why do you want to change careers?" Doing does not equal managing at all.
  17. I do the annual Showtime Anytime subscription for $99 but I use my neighbor's Paramount account. I'm not sure what my play is to save money.
  18. We have a mix of owned and leased properties in multiple states. We had our class A lease on South Mopac. We are giving that up and that's over $1.5M/year. Our light industrial we own. The initial plan was to add a 3 story office building at that Austin site for around $20M to house the Mopac professional staff and that's been nixed. Instead, cubicles are shrinking down so they can increase seating by 25%. It'll move to the hoteling model once that's complete and still have excess capacity. Our corporate HQ leases 15 floors in a high rise in OK. Once hoteling is rolled out there, they'll be able to go to half that amount easily. Okies still love to go to the office a lot, otherwise, they could shrink it further. Our Kansas City office was going to have to either expand our owned office building or move but now they're well below capacity. IIRC, the unofficial word was WFH was going to save 40-60% of annual real estate costs once leases end and expansion projects are cancelled. Our staff turnover has decreased and recruiting has improved also. Our IT department is 100% remote and that has dramatically improved recruiting. We could get good staff in OK but it took a long time and a lot of effort because the hiring pool is pretty shallow. When we rolled out our WFH policy during COVID, the first rule was you had to live with 1 hour of a physical office location. Then that changed to anywhere within the 5 states we have offices. That limit was strictly because Finance didn't want to set up additional state income taxes in our payroll system. I have heard there are 4 other "secret states" in the system already that, if you ask and the state is already in the system, you can be allowed to reside there also. I imagine we are 2-3 years from Finance just saying fuck it, just live in the US.
  19. Too late. They’re not allowed to vote.
  20. Luckily my company has been actively reducing office space once they saw WFH didn’t make a difference in productivity. Most technically have a hybrid schedule of 1-2 days in the office but that’s even flexible. I’m scheduled to go in TUE/THU but I’ve gone in zero times since we rolled that out. Our HQ is currently piloting hoteling cubicles in our HR department so they can reduce our footprint even further.

    If a doctor prescribes Viagra, isn’t that technically gender affirming care?
