  1. My wife's best friend back in Estonia got a year and the father got a month or two. In that case though I think it was their employer who had a more generous policy than the law dictates which I think is closer to 6 months for the mom and 2 weeks for the dad. My only option was unpaid FMLA leave because I had to go into the hole with PTO during the shutdown (company policy) and my wife's is just vacation days because her company is too small for any federal requirements.
  2. I know what I'll be playing every single time
  3. Might be worth it just to see how big they think they went. It is an interesting trainwreck just try not to think about it very much, or at all really, if possible.
  4. The episodes are really hit and miss
  5. ARE is just light edutainment. There's a clear bias in most of the episodes but I treat it like Wikipedia as he also cites his sources, usually displayed on screen, and it makes it easier to find more info on a given subject. Of course his gimmick is to ruin whatever the topic is so you know how he's going to come at whatever the subject is.
  6. No maternity leave either But yeah, nothing I can do but roll with the punches.
  7. Only once a week, Mondays. And all of my family is either dead or lives in other states
  8. Mother in law got denied a visa to come help my wife so she can go back to work. Dunno what we're going to do now.
  9. I used to think it was a frivolous lawsuit too until I saw it on an episode of Adam Ruins Everything
  10. What We Left Behind is the name of the doc. It had a crowdfunding campaign some years ago and we finally got to have a look at it for a short while last week. The streaming platform they used really sucked though and I have no idea when we'll get to have it for keeps in either digital or whatever physical media exists nowadays.
  11. Okey
  12. We'll probably start the second season today, it was just the way that the finale ended that was offputting. I'd highly recommend the show so far. The DS9 doc was pretty good. Nana Visitor (Kira) really did not like Marc Alaimo (Dukat).
  13. Finished season 1 of Community. Was great and hilarious up until the end where it limped across the finish line.
  14. Burned myself out on STO so I'm back to LOTRO
  15. Congrats Gromnir! I've been getting very little sleep with a new puppy in the house
  16. Can someone please explain to me how this isn't a lie?
  17. Tyrone Lue LeBron James expected to be named new Lakers head coach
  18. Probably a repost
  19. Answers to Endgame shenanigans
  20. I'm still about this
  21. As I've said before, I haven't yet watched any of the new season but my expectations have been low ever since the show passed the books. I've never even read the books but there was a noticeable dip in quality in the story that I can't seem to pin on anything else. The TV writers just aren't nearly as good without leaning heavily on the books as a guide and seem to fall back on a lot of standard fantasy tropes.
  22. Who knew that hanging sliding closet doors was so hard to do all by yourself? Completely unrelated, I hung 6 sliding closet doors today. Really heavy ones.
