IRL the difference between Bill Harding and Jonas Miller is the same difference between National Geographic Explorer emeritus Tim Samaras (RIP) and Reed Timmer, protagonist of Discovery Channel's Storm Chaser reality show

Look, Jonas Miller isn't evil, he's just criminally stupid and funded by storm shelter companies with deep pockets. Bill's got his local meteorologist gig, but he's also got a truck, some buds and a deep appreciation for what the sky wreaks

it was heartbreaking for me to *literally move to Oklahoma,* start high school, and realize that I just did not have the math skills or desire to learn them to actually do meteorology

I was obsessed with meteorology from kindergarten through to freshman year of high school specifically because of Twister, including drawing twisters on everything.

Neither of the stores I worked at exist anymore. I did love both locations tho. Even if a caterer blitzed to shit off Stoli tried to carjack me at the register one night and I got him to leave by bamboozling him (telling him I didnβt have the keys to my own damn car)

My favorite interaction was one night after 2 AM (in OK itβs illegal to sell alcohol after 2) a wildly drunk dude came veering into the otherwise empty parking lot in his Kia sedan and barreled into the store. He went straight for the beer coolers and, finding them unlocked, took me to task for it.

Apparently 7-Eleven US corporate is currently desperately trying to be like 7-Eleven Japan, including working with some of the Japanese supply chain companies to improve their operations. What I can say is that I won't say no to the pretty good breakfast tacos my corner 7-Eleven now makes.

what I'm learning (by reading twitter) is that the woman in question was so toxic during her time as a *Guggenheim curator* that she ended up getting an entire Atlantic article written about how hard she was to work with.

I think it's good and fine for Dawntrail to be a little bit slower, a little bit lower-stakes (at least in the first half). I think stepping into the mindset that the Warrior of Light is the current incarnation of Azem also means accepting smaller, slower stories.

FFXIV fans wanted their Warrior of Light to be jumping from reflection to reflection the moment Endwalker ended. And it felt like we were getting that with the patch content centered around the Thirteenth. But I don't think that's actually such a good idea for this game.

my honest view on Dawntrail's MSQ narrative is that I don't think you can follow a massive arc climax like Endwalker up with another massive story, and that is going to clash with audience expectations of what you should be doing narratively.

Any time the Republicans gained even a modicum of power it was like watching athletes throw up their hands and stop playing; Democrats would just go fucking limp at the first sign of Republican obstructionism. At a certain point you have to just conclude that they don't mind it. They don't care.

dog I don't mean to be a downer here, I don't think you're wrong to write this, but if we're all being completely honest with each other how much of this do you actually think is going to happen between now and the end of the year, like genuinely. We're talking about Joe "Nothing Will Change" Biden.
