Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I am heavily reliant on DoorDash to feed myself this week. I do not expect to prosper with the fall of civilization. Or with any glitches with epayments.
Is it wrong that I hope Adam Schiff has a degree from Law & Order as well? He has to have checked it out, right? I guess it wouldn't really make a difference for general population of insurrectionists, but still. I'm reading his statement thing right now, good stuff.
I will never get over there being a real elected official named Adam Schiff.
Every time I see his name

Yes. Though I do wonder if he got any voting bump based ont hat...
Work cackling: you know what happens when I wake up too early and a poorly-scheduled/thought out documentation request is casually sent to me in Slack? I get spiteful, write up an entire "this is how documentation will be planned and requested for 2021" document and give the release manager a heads-up, which leads to them gleefully adding me to the weekly PM meeting.
The moral: do not piss off a technical writer who has run content planning PM thunderdomes before, it will go poorly for you.
I would bet he did, name recognition is a big advantage. I know I took a long time to figure out why his name was familiar - you know how it is with Congresscritters, especially Reps, there are so many of them that whenever a name seems vaguely familiar I have to think "Why do I know that name, are they evil?" so I have to look them up and looking him up never got me to Law & Order until Jesse made a comment about it and the light bulb went on. I'm not in his district but I bet plenty of people like me are. I"m glad he has turned out to be someone I actually like!
::Picturing the governess glare that goes with Atropa's post::
I feel like a personification of the Gritty "Fuck around and find out" meme. I'm not even really mad (that was yesterday), I'm cackling in menacing glee.

Two codes enter, one code ... runs?
I didn't get the Adam Schiff Law and Order thing until right now, and I mainlined original recipe Law & Order for years. D'oh.
When Congressman Adam Schiff comes up, I always think of actor Richard Schiff (i.e. Toby on The West Wing), and then I waste an hour wishing we were in the Bartlet-presidency universe.
I mean...Sorkin was on drugs, but not the stuff that produces all this here.
