Talk about how attractive you think the 49ers QB is

Partner 1 got it right honestly. Turn it into an opportunity to “learn” something with her. Many good outcomes can come from that

Also 100x better to just own your own personality and be confident in your own interests rather than be weird about it

They just barely beat the Green Bay packers, who were favored to win (big time!). Their QB makes questionable football choices and is a little sus in real life.

LEK1, my bad. You’re right. And they play on a pitch.

Our district is so lax on the students this year. With tech issues and distance learning days, we’ve gone from accommodating to enabling real quick. No penalties for late work, taking excuses for attendance, lower academic and behavioral standards... We were beginning to make so much progress on transforming our school culture, but this year is erasing that and then some. Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?

I miss music. Like actual bands with instruments and vocal ability. Feels like the music industry is so hollowed out that multi-member instrumental bands like Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, and even Metallica are no longer able to take root.

There are a few talented individual singers (Adele) a lot of awful mumble rappers, but no actual bands that will stand the test of time. Before I get called a Boomer, the problems with the music industry for new artists are well documented.

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷
