@CAshmanActor Nathaniel Hawthorne and Jrr Tolkien in a fight to see who can describe some flora in as many words as possible. Hawthorne: 654 page book describing a rose. Tolkein: An anthology series on the ancestors, current relatives, and descendants of one particular tree. Everyone looses.

@Amank1412 Don’t everyone get to keep vested stocks? Like, once it vests it is as yours as anything can get in a virtual world. This, it would belong to the employees beneficiaries. What am I missing?

When a Google employee dies, the company offers one of the most generous safety nets in corporate America. A spouse receives 50% of the salary for 10 years, plus all vested stock. Children get $1,000 per month until age 19 (or longer if they're full-time students), and the benefit applies even to new hires. Google makes one thing clear family security isn't a perk it's a responsibility

So... The family and I will be traveling to Japan in late May and early June. Travelers, suggestions for best places to stay? Best parts of town to have a home base? We value being able to walk to plenty of places, but things not being insanely busy!

@RAWigger I was once walking through Washington square park on the way to work, and saw a bunch of dusty cars with broken windows. I thought, man this neighborhood went to crap right quick. Later that day, I found out they were filming “I am legend”. 🤦 (side note, not a bad film).

@platinombrero Just to be clear. All people have preferences. I simply don’t prefer Carolina BBQ. Nothing wrong with it. And like pizza in NYC, most is prob mediocre at best, but the best it likely amazing. I haven’t had the amazing yet.

@platinombrero Carolina bbq can disappear and it wouldn’t bother me in the least. The rest, I am good with. And frankly, Kansas and Missouri are basically the same and should be lumped together. Or just say KC.

@rorycooper @gtconway3d This might be the most unifying statement in human history, but only for baseball fans. No matter your favorite team, only one person would disagree and his initials are AH.

@rockmeannadeus Idk. A polioce union is definitely a challenge for most Americans who theoretically like unions. Police unions show the absolute worst possible unions. Well. Maybe not the worst. 60’s & 70’s teamsters were pretty dodgy too. But both were fine with murder, seemingly.

@LeeCEldridge @geoffschwartz I saw a comment somewhere that someone suggested six successful challenges should require a push from home to fist and then rotate. So an ump having a bad day gets rotated out from behind the plate. The plan would need some work, but I like that idea in General.

@ulmedas @geoffschwartz I'm sure their union would fight against roboumps but after they get a full season of tasting this option they might change their mind. lol

@LeeCEldridge @geoffschwartz Maybe their smug air of superiority needs putting in its place. This guy and Aaron Hernandez would call incorrectly out of anger and spite for years. The fact that we have seen so many successful challenges in two days, while not great in general, is satisfying.

@KeruboSk I simply say I don’t drink anymore. Literally zero people have asked why. Zero out of hundreds of people have asked why.

Yeah. Not as bad as the jr high football coach who at end of season sat us all down and gave the academics talk, ending with, if you don’t get your grades up, guys like him with start your senior year, pointing at me. I played every offensive snap as starting center sr year.

@omglolbah @MarxIsMyNigga 💯 many do not realize the extra one will do, when needed, if you treat them well, do the same for them, and don’t ask of them to regularly. ‘When needed’ is key. I have turned folks who dislike me into the staunchest of…not friend, but allies for lack of a better word.

@ulmedas @MarxIsMyNigga Same with most external vendors. Having a good relationship means that when you are lacking that one part and you need it NOW on a Friday afternoon they will have one of the staff who lives nearby drop it off on the way home ;p

@biology_slut @MarxIsMyNigga If you are a jerk and or not respected this approach only makes things worse for a people leader. Respect is important. And it’s earned.

@biology_slut @MarxIsMyNigga I don’t have kids of any sort, but I give the best disappointed stepdad-dad looks. Works well as a motivator when you are respected.
