Shōgun, episode 10 - the finale They stuck the landing. Letting Yabu linger for those few extra moments was cold, but earned. I'm glad the showrunners held their bravery and refrained from the pointless spectacle of a giant battle sequence, and please do not do a Season 2. A flower is only a flower...

You know what really grinds my gears...
I got Mrs Tif two pair of Fab yoga pants, and it was a painless and subscription-free process. I had intended to order them for pickup (the store is only like 2 mi from our house), but they offered free delivery. So went out to dinner and when we got home there was a Fabletics bag on our stoop w yog...

In the defense of 'weird nerds', those are some excellent freehand circles.

While I'm certainly in favor of banning non-competes, and doing so at a national level, I don't think this action by the FTC is within the remit of its authority.

Non-competes have been illegal in CA for several years now.

Had a phone screen with an HR rep yesterday afternoon. It seemed like it went well. But when it came to compensation I had something that didn't happen before. I gave them a number and they countered with "would you be willing to take less?" Should I take that as that I'm in the ballpark but came i...

I mean, considering she dropped out of the race six weeks ago and all.That said, 17% is still high.
Are you old enough to remember when John Ashcroft - soon to be AG of the United States - lost a Senate election to a man who had died a month before the election?

I need a ruling on this
About ten years ago Mrs Tif made a substantial order from Amazon (I forget the exact amount, but it was several hundred dollars), and after a couple days it showed as 'delivered'. But we didn't have it, and none of our neighbors saw it delivered. Mrs Tif had not yet updated the shipping address on h...

O'Neill Reserve Heather Hybrid 21" shorts I have these in probably 7 or 8 colors (and a few of their predecessors, which were available in patterns in addition to solids). They're now available in e-waist variant, but only in an 18" length which is too short for me. In terms of material, they're ba...

Spoiler alert: You still need underwear unless:
1) You're a single-use pants weirdo, or;
2) You're a multi-use undergarment weirdo.

The move here, among a disturbingly broad demographic set, is to dress normally from the waist up but from the waist down it's pajama bottoms and slippers. Not 'joggers' (although those are also certainly - weirdly - popular) and sandals. PJ pants and fuzzy slippers. At the grocery store.

A point of clarification on the hilarity, if I might. Are the Broncos just recycling old key art with the Wilson nameplate, or did this deal come together in such a way that they were able to put these mockups together knowing ZW was signing, and the latter chose to wear #3 knowing what he knows abo...

I do not miss vinyl, but I dearly miss all the trappings that went with 'albums'. Like talent, and vision, and scope. etc

More thoughts on what's in store for the Shōgun finale Full credit to Mrs Tif if this proves true, she offered it up as a hot take today. What if it wasn't Ishido who sent word to Yabu to dispatch the shinobi to kidnap Mariko. There was no written note of alliance from Ishido, after all. Just the re...

Our initial tile vendor has been maddening. They were incommunicado, took a combination of around 10 or 11 calls/VMs and emails before the sales person actually returned our contact. They scheduled delivery, and to their credit they brought very nearly all of things we had ordered. There are four ti...

The GDPR and I think CCPA regard license plates as 'sensitive'. Not actual PII, but sort of PII-adjacent. For example, if you see Kylie Jenner getting out of an orange Lambo Aventador on their show and you can see the license plate number, you will know the next time you see it out and about it's Ky...
