  • Amazingly, it was also the kind of thing he could’ve vaporwared away, just by (mostly) following policy. All he had to do was claim (from the beginning) that there are ongoing investigations, agency policy is to not release info about those investigations, and then lie that there are going to be arrests really soon.


  • Spend the money and get concert earplugs. Not only will it save money (a basic set is only about $30), and fit better, but the event will sound better. Those foam ones are great to protect your ears, but they muffle the sound. Great if you’re around power tools and the like, but terrible if you’re at a concert

    Concert earplugs (I have Loops, but there are countless options and each has its fans) lower the volume without significantly changing the sound. You can still hear your favorite songs, and they sound correct.





  • I watched it long after the fact, so I already knew about the controversy. I knew that it meant his death.

    His death was also a great way to end the series, and the story arc they were in.

    I even recognize the artistic merit of showing his death from his own POV.

    And yet, somehow it all came together in a way that was very unfulfilling. Maybe it’s just that it’s not the way we’ve ever seen, but it felt very off.


  • Again, kid logic. Plus, many young parents don’t know (or care) how to properly cook veggies anyway. It’s a choice between canned (and usually salted) veggies, or similarly mushy, over-microwaved fresh/frozen veggies with little seasoning or flavor. It’s not like the green beans are roasted with olive oil, garlic, and balsamic vinegar.
