Tears is better than Breath in every way, it's true. It's also more Zelda-like, in that you gradually expand your ability to explore the world.

No, the working class and the lower class are both very empathic. I'm guessing you haven't spent very much time with us.

Emphasize proper maintenance of the space, equipment, and hygiene standards over speed in the beginning. They'll get faster over time but they'll never get less sloppy.

If they get to order a shift meal order it for them the first few times, so they know when to do it without burdening the kitchen and the appropriate price range for comped employee meals.

Make sure both the other BOH staff and the FOH are aware that they are new and the dush pit might get backed up more than usual, and to take the extra time to properly scrape plates and stack to make the new dishie's life easier while they get the hang of things.

I badly misunderstand the question; I thought you meant the job position, not the appliance.

I have no relevant advice for the latter situation.

I've been carfree in Chicago for two decades, I highly recommend it. I keep my license current for emergencies and the odd once-a-year rental situation, but don't own one. It's cheaper and safer this way.

MRW I'm on a list with the CIA and the NRA but it's the Culinary Institute of America and the National Restaurant Association.

That, and so they have an excuse to incarcerate or kill the leadership, see: Haymarket 7, Joe Hill, &c

Boxers, specifically woven boxers. In that the point of drawers is to filter farts and keep your legs from touching each other, they're the best option to do that. They're gma lighter-weight fabric than briefs or boxer-briefs; and also a stiffer fabric which means they won't ride up and let your legs start touching.

Worst of both worlds, they're the suburbs of underwear.

We're taking it back!

We'd suffocate and then be crushed.

 

Atomic Robo is a comic book, mirrored on the web, about alternate history. In this arc, the eponymous hero has been sent back in time to the Old West... where he finds an old enemy who hasn't met him yet.

 

Paul is transported to another world where he doesn't know the rules and has to start over in a strange land. He befriends the locals, goes on adventures, becomes their leader, and eventually saves the planet.

What do we think?

 

Often I end up closing the list and immediately turning to self-soothing. And because there's no way to know in advance if a task on the list will give me anxiety, this often results in my list being not just unusable but unreadable, preventing me from doing or even remembering the non-anxiety tasks on the same list.

I'm not from California, so I don't know much about her; but this genuinely surprised me, especially how vicious and vitriolic the comments were. What's going on there?

I can't remember how I first came across this song: My wife says I played it for her, but I remember her playing it for me. The important thing is that we both love it, which believe you me, is not all that common.

I love it because it's rollicking and high-energy and earnest. I eventually looked up the lyrics (which are in Catalan) and it's a pretty normal love song with some nice sentiments, but the passion and desire come across in the vocal tone, even through a language barrier.

If you like Yo La Tengo or The Magnetic Fields, this song will probably hit the spot for you.

And if anyone has more music that sounds like this, send it my way. I'm always expanding my library.
