What even is bail anyway? I’ve never understood this concept. Either you deserve to be in custody, or you don’t. And the one singular thing that could never change this is whether you can put money down. Good behavior, maybe. Or a time limit on how long you can be in custody before facing trial. But not a fucking down payment, are you kidding me?
It is a pain in the ass. It’s about being able to pay to solve a problem you didn’t have before, but created for yourself by spending more money than you ever had to in the first place. “I’m so rich, I pay more than you make your entire life, in order to have a house so ridiculously big, that I have to pay even more money on a monthly basis, in order to even keep this shit running”. That’s really what it is.
I mean, I know well-off people that have indoor gyms, spas and recording studios in their home. Or big play rooms for the kids that’s literally just a huge room full of toys. So to an extent, I get what having extra space can mean. But then you realize that those houses are tiny specks of dust compared to the gargantuan Hollywood monstrosities.
I mean, we are elbow deep in homeless people, and regular folks struggling to pay rent, so I’m really not sure why everyone thinks Johnny Silvertongue needs 82 bathrooms for his family of 3, even if he did star in a recent blockbuster. Maybe some of that real estate should be redistributed.
That is a genius conclusion.
Well, it obviously depends on the style of fabric. Soft and loose fabrics can be good to have baggy, such as sweatpants or flax-based summer clothes. But specifically for the type of jeans shown here, I don’t like the tactile feel of the excess fabric. And it catches on itself and gets in the way.
I don’t like skinny jeans either, to be fair, but slim fit is good for me. Im also italian, if that explains it.
This, but literally the opposite lol
They’re not meant to be used to change prices on the fly. The 10 minute window is literally just so you can fix mistakes like typos, in case it says 179.9 when you meant to put 17.99. Like when a customer comes in, and says “the advertising said this is supposed to be $5 this weekend, but the price tag still says its $8, what gives?” Then you can go to the back, change the price to $5, and it will update all the tags for this item on the fly. There is no limitation stating you need to wait 24 hours or however long you think would be fair. You can also use it to schedule sales that start at a specific time of day, fx food items that are made to be consumed on the same day might get cheaper near closing time.
Price gouging is still price gouging, and generally, at least where im from, there is a legal obligation that the customer can rely on the listed price at the time they pick up the item. I can’t imagine it’s that much different in the us?

Bro I share that core memory. Except it was coming home after having gone to the store for my mum. I was pretending to interview myself about what it was like to suddenly star in the Harry Potter movies.
I was telling “the interviewer” all about how much fun it was to hang out with Danielle Radcliffe. I even specifically remember that I was saying how sometimes he would joke about his scar burning between takes, which was apparently super funny when he did that.
So I was recreating how he would scream “aaah, my scar!” to show my fake interviewer how funny it was. It was at this point that I looked around and noticed the girl my age, who had stopped midway through putting on her bike helmet, in order to give me the dirtiest “what the fuck is this psychopath doing?” look, which I’ll never forget.
I also remember that I was really torn. On one hand, if i stopped because I had noticed her, that would mean admitting that I’m being a weirdo who shouldn’t do this in public. The alternative of course, being to double down and continue unapologetically. I am actually kinda proud of young me for recognizing the validity of just owning it - I mean, in the end I was just a kid playing and learning to socialize. Of course, I didn’t have the gall to pull through, so I ended up walking home in silence.
Hi, I’m a lawyer and I have prepared the necessary citations:

OOOOH now I get it lol. Guess I had to see it from a more personally relatable perspective.
I have the same experience as your observation, i.e., when I was younger I primarily just empathized with the main character and never went deeper. And now I can do both.
Where I’m at currently, I still primarily empathize with the main character, especially on first watches. Although, I may be taken out of it by a really cool shot, or if I discover something important about the writing that takes my thoughts in that direction.
It is on subsequent watches, when I already know what is going to happen to the characters on the surface level, that i start to think about why the movie is written this way, like a step deeper. That’s when I will begin to think about the big picture things.
Pam: They’re the same picture
Especially, perhaps, if these are things that your partner does, and you’re looking for things that remind you of your partner when you’re looking for video game characters to romanticize 😎
