Watching the Superbowl from an Aussie bar in Singapore and I just realized that we're not getting the normal commercials. Saw people posting about AI ads and haven't seen a single one!

You mean your city *doesn't* have a bunny rabbit grooming studio / boarding house? What kind of podunk town do you even live in?

John Harbaugh speaks with Falcons’ Matt Ryan about coaching job, no in-person interviews yet The Falcons conducted a preliminary interview with Harbaugh on Monday. He has yet to meet in person with any team about its coaching job.

Sorry but no chance Harbs is going to work for Matt Ryan. Anywhere he goes he'll want to report directly to the owner and have more power. I had assumed that they reason Atlanta hired Ryan in the first place is because Harbs turned them down. #ravensflock

My dad paid his way through college by working at Bethlehem Steel over the summers and HOLY SHIT the stories he has about that place. Not sure if there are any good documentaries about it already but it would be a fascinating subject.

Sarah I don't know if people mention this but I really appreciate how you always post a photo of your raw ingredients. It makes your dishes a lot more relatable and has definitely inspired me to get more creative with stuff already in my pantry.

Given how reluctant Bisciotti has been to make sudden changes and his background in staffing this feels out of character. It almost makes me think there was some kind of insubordination from Harbs to trigger it. We'll probably never know what was said on that call though

Inside the 36 hours that decided John Harbaugh’s fate with the Ravens With Harbaugh now out as the Ravens' head coach, we piece together the events that ultimately led to his ouster after 18 seasons.

This is crazy if indeed Bisciotti fired Harbaugh over the phone. Really disrespectful towards someone that worked for you for 18 years. #ravensflock

Given that the exchanges are all trying to force 23/7 on us it's just a matter of time before we get the fireworks.

Do you think this could be analogous to Andy Reid's departure from Philly where the team and the coach find success elsewhere? Kind of agree with you given that there is no obvious replacement (assuming Flores is still blackballed out of head coach)

My son took his friends to Five Guys for his birthday and let me tell you, it still prompted plenty of regret.

When did Starbucks in the US start making brewed coffee with what is more or less a Keurig machine? Trying it for the first time and the coffee is pretty tasteless tbh. Although brewed Starbucks always tasted burnt to me before so πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Have been forced to drink Moutai many times at business dinners and even though I approached it with an open mind I just can't appreciate it. You're still tasting it the next day.

First time smoking a turkey on the egg. The color is gorgeous. Here's hoping it tastes as good as it looks.

There's a whole signboard advertising optional services. And as far as I can tell from walking by that distressed look you mention above doesn't come out of the box. IIRC it's a ~$300 treatment you purchase after the fact

I've seen these out in the wild in Singapore a few times recently and everyone wearing them had a district divorced middle aged guy vibe. But they are good for a chuckle every time I walk past the shop and they are advertising shoelaces for $100

Hey chat how nervous should you be when you see a couple of airplane mechanics working over one of the engines with cloths and shining flashlights at it?

So I guess you can get cocktails at Starbucks in Hong Kong now?

And to be clear if you do this you're not taking advantage of the other country's health system. The hospitals in Bangkok have govt offices inside them so you can extend your visa. They want you to go!

I still play a few runs almost every day. The best advice I got when I started was to force yourself to play with cards that you usually avoid. You'll hit on some fun synergies and it will greatly improved your game. Glad people are still finding this game!

You guys have this at the Dominos back home? Will have to wait until I've been drinking before I have the courage to try this

You have Lamar! Just have him run it 3 times and the game is over! What are we even doing here? Buffalo has a cupcake division and now we're going to have to win there during the playoffs. Hard not to think that the window has slammed shut
