For the people making the decision whether to return to office or not (AKA management), their job is simpler with everyone in the office. It is the nature of management. If everyone is in the same building, it is easier to keep them on task, foster collaboration, etc. It doesn't matter that YOUR job is easier for you if you can work from home. Their job of management is more difficult.

Also, for businesses that also own the land underneath their building, the business is another way to purchase real estate. They are in essence double dipping, making money off of the business itself, and building value in the land underneath that business. The reduced square footage of a work from home model does not serve the land grab.

Some people might argue that it's for a desire for control. Some people might argue that it's just old people with no creativity trying to do things the way they've been done in the past. I think the reasons are more practical and fiscally driven.

It's a boob joke - I didn't see anyone mention it. The "she has good genes" is an adolescent euphemism. Now, could they've found a person of color with large boobs to do the ad? Of course, and please do. I hope AA tries to remedy their mistake by releasing ad after ad of all the young actresses (using the word loosely for Sweeney) with "good genes." Double down and give the public what they want!

We have a lot of sprawl here and the reasons are many. Just like Dallas and LA, we have a ton of road infrastructure and zoning laws that eat up a lot of land. We also don't have any natural barriers, like an ocean or a mountain range, to limit our expansion. Just to keep building and add another lane. Thanks for asking.

Okay, now defend us from the foreign censorship that Israeli lobbyists baked into our state constitutions. https://www.newsweek.com/pro-palestinian-protest-states-colleges-illegal-bds-1895292

This is an astute answer. Bravo.

And then saying "inflation is down," as if that has any real day-to-day impact on our travel plans.

"No women, no kids" is good enough for me.

If peeing your pants is cool, then I'm Miles Davis.

And I just don't give Adam.

Do lesbians travel in packs? I typed it into Google and for the first time in a while, it did not return an AI result. The most common mention of more than one lesbian congregating is in a "group." I'll ask my lesbian friends if there is preferred nomenclature for a gathering.

The Kanar sounds good. The Romulan Ale sounds way too sweet, though. I think 151, soda and Curacao for color with the rock candy garnish dropped in the drink would be more fitting for something that is supposed to be so strong it's illegal.

I want to see how big those Targ legs are.

It's been limping for a while, but the momentum was huge to begin with. The niche subreddits still had good participation, not great, but good enough. These latest shenanigans might be the final tipping point, though.
