I'd love to see a well curated non-american version of this.

I had a rough time with this, though I didn't need hints. I still am confused about the category.
!The mix of sit-down and fast food... Is there some connection between restaurants I'm not getting?!<

I started playing this about a week ago and have been having a great time.
It's kind of like a word search that can go in any direction after every letter, but can't overlap, and you don't know the words. There's also a special word (sometimes 2 words together) called "spangram" each day that will go from one side of the board to the other and spell out the theme of the other words.
My guess is these were underperforming problem employees that they wanted to drop. This provided an easy out to skip a PIP and severance. A company the size of wells fargo there are going to be way more people than 14 using a jiggler. If it were a blanket 1-strike, it would be a lot more folks gone.

I've literally never seen the movie and this is one of my favorite albums.
I'm eyeing the Bambu P1S for $100 off, myself.

These fins are supposed to stop at the rim, but one side just keeps going. Is this an error in the source file, or did I do something wrong?

People don't like it because:
- It's the new thing. If alcohol were introduced today it would be banned in every country on earth. People tolerate Facebook, Twitter, Insta because that's what's been around. They all do the same thing, but TikTok is new and scary.
- Short form video is scary! It's a new form of entertainment, and old people don't like new forms of entertainment. See: every newly introduced form of entertainment in history, books included.
- They are misinformed about what data a mobile application can and cannot do, and the level of security built into both iOS and Android. Rest "assured", they are collecting as much data as they can -- just like every app creator on the planet. What they aren't doing is capturing mic data while you're sleeping (that's not how microphones in phones work), stealing your passwords from your clipboard (OS's notify users about clipboard paste)
- China bad. This primes people to consider negative press about it with a less skeptical eye, feeding the above points. (Don't misconstrue me as being pro-China, I'm not, and that's not what this post is about.)
