Better than almost every other option.

That’s a hooded rat. Can’t tell what type because it’s all squished into a cone.

I thought Pushing Tin was the aircraft controllers movie.

Well there aren’t any flights.

It’s heavy innuendo but yeah, they did the deed. Ilsa asks Rick to choose for her because she loves them both. He sets it up like he is running away with her but then does the ol’switcheroo and sends her and Laszlo off while he holds the Nazis at gunpoint. He ends up shooting Nazis and Capt. Renault covers for him.

Great romance requires a choice. It’s difficult to find a choice that matters, ideally it is something they already have, but are giving up. That’s why all the hallmark movies work because a big city girl is giving up her career to grow cucumbers or something. Making a choice to take a job somewhere else doesn’t work because it’s a future thing - giving up an opportunity is not the same as giving up a realized life situation. Infidelity really works because it’s a former dream, and it means giving up stability, status, comfort for the unknown.

I have done all of these. None of them were a midlife crisis - that was straight fucking.

She was never quiet about this.

I had a board game that did this back in the 1970s.

In my world policy decisions are built in facts. The references are part of the process by which you build confidence in the policy direction by showing the information on which the policy is based. If those references turn out to be faulty then the policy rationale falls apart.

But we are in the era of vibe governance and they don’t care about facts. They will “fix” the document by selecting a new set of facts that matches the desired outcome. We used to refer to it as “decision based evidence making”.

A minnow jumped on the hook ass first? You are good! Most of them use their mouth.
