Ugh. Prob similar to the posters who are well aware political meme communities exist but insist on posting them here. There's nothing temporary about those blocks, but I'm willing to let the horny posters get it out of their system and unblock them later.

A few weeks ago, "horny posting" became the latest bandwagon here, and I got bored of it, so temporarily blocked the handful of accounts posting the bulk of those. Usually these bandwagon themes fizzle out after a while, so I check back every so often to see when it's safe to unblock them.

Yep, reasons.

Would that make her kid a demi-Demi Lovoto or Semi Demi Lovato?

Announced today during Trek‘s blockbuster Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Jordan Canning (who directed season 2’s “Charades”, but perhaps more crucially here, also directed seven episodes of the Fraggle Rock revival, Back to the Rock) will direct an episode in the upcoming fourth season of Strange New Worlds that will see the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise turned into puppets. Anson Mount’s Captain Pike beamed into the convention to let fans know… well, kind of

...

Nothing else was revealed about the episode, other than the fact Paramount will be working with the fine purveyors of puppet technology at the Jim Henson Creature Shop to bring Pike and the rest of the crew to fabric life for the episode.

That's basically me. I watched it, though, lol, but mostly because the premiere is far enough away that I probably won't remember half of it come July anyway. Otherwise, I'm pretty rigorous about avoiding spoilers of any sort and is why I wasn't really around when everyone was talking about Academy when it was airing (have since watched and enjoyed it though).

Nice. Only omitted that one because I hadn't heard of it. I like to switch apps every so often so will check it out.

Any reason why you can't just use one of the many, many web-based apps and "install" it? Photon, Alexandrite, Tesseract, Voyager, and many more all let you "install" them to your home screen. They run in your phone's web browser but don't have the address bar and work full screen and basically look/act like native apps.

Back in the day, I worked in the corporate office for a retail clothing chain (IT department, so not down in the weeds), and I can't speak for H&M like you gave as an example, but for the one I worked for we didn't design anything.

We had a department of people called "buyers" who would work with various clothing vendors directly and wholesale bulk-purchase items for the stores. Their job was to basically figure out what was in style, what would sell, in which of our markets it would sell, and order them to stock in the stores. Not all stores carried the same styles/designs/whatever. e.g. We stocked college sports apparel only in markets near those colleges, our stores in warmer regions rarely carried winter apparel that we normally stocked in colder regions, etc.

And Linux, but agreed lol.

I never really got the humor there, lol, but I'm lamenting the loss of 80s TV because I had a lot of good Golden Girls posts since I'm finally watching it for the first time.
