Yeah, that's the one. The one that makes a modicum of sense

Either A) New Years Day is a day of the week and your birthday changes every year (but in a vastly more predictable way; NYD will make next year's dates one weekday ahead), or B) New Years Day is a completely separate day and all years are identical, and you choose your birthday to be celebrated on the closest agreeable weekend if that matters to you

There is a pretty fucking solid one:

13 months exactly 4 weeks long. 364 days. Two unique days: New Years Day and Leap Day. Just put them together.

Now every month is the same length. Every numbered day is the same day of the week in every month for the whole year.

What better way to advertise your clandestine movie than with clandestine marketing?

To be fair, Rogers didn't die. It monopolized data communication with insufficient regulation. It had an inevitable outage that could have been bypassed if not for the reasons listed.

Rogers continues to make stacks while the public foots the bill.

What Disney fails to understand is that Star Wars fits so many genres. It doesn't need to be space opera. That's what the trilogy was, but that's not the whole universe.

People really liked the western. People really liked the spy thriller.

I think people would really like the buddy cop movie. I think people would really like the samurai movie. I think people would really like the creature horror movie.

Wait, are you suggesting people need to bribe the cops to not murder them because the cops are underpaid essenital workers?

Or did you really think this was actually about Amazon delivery drivers and still just had a weird take on it?

And he's also going to tell Trump to fly a kite. They can go together and make a day of it. They'll laugh and bond and throw rocks at minorities. It'll be a grand occasion!

You know, except there's no motivation for retailers to lower prices no matter how cheap the the products become nor how low their taxes are.
