My book "The Non-Demonic Possession of Linus Maynard" gonna make you feel feelings, but don't take my word for it:

@Sir_Rainbows @antic2000 @potatoslav @MMKivekas Please enjoy the games. Walk to the stadium if you want. We don’t need to have a debate about why suggesting “The US” is of one mind on any particular subject is incorrect.

@gregharty @antic2000 @potatoslav @MMKivekas How does this negate what they said?

i am sick of hearing from europeans about the world cup THIS IS MY FINAL WARNING

@antic2000 @potatoslav @MMKivekas Enjoy the games if you come. Walk if you want. Complain when people are concerned about your welfare. Keep on keepin’ on. Cheers.

@gregharty @potatoslav @MMKivekas I walked a mile to a cinema in Utah and the hotel I was staying at was so concerned they sent a driver to the cinema car park to check I got there. It is unreasonable.

@antic2000 @potatoslav @MMKivekas 350m people don’t “think” collectively. Lots of people want infrastructure improvements. This is not about “thinking” that walk is reasonable. It objectively is unreasonable. If you warn me against doing something silly in ur country I hope I’d listen w/out lecturing you about it

@gregharty @potatoslav @MMKivekas The US generally doesn't think walking is a reasonable thing to do.

I had hoped I wouldn’t live to see the Prego “pivot” into Natsec

@antic2000 @potatoslav @MMKivekas “The US” didn’t make that spot unwalkable, a few land developers bribing politicians did. “The US” didn’t decide to host these games: a few billionaires bribing politicians did. She’s trying to save anyone coming from having the worst day of your lives trying to walk there.

@potatoslav @MMKivekas The point is the US had 10 years to consider the problem and seemed to dismiss walking out of hand despite that being how most people do it.

“They're building a national network of surveillance cameras and I think it's time to carefully consider if this is really how we want to live in America…” My comments on Flock at the Dunwoody, GA City Council meeting:

Me, walking home after I got after it:

@jimsoxfan Trying to blame the announcer for dropping ratings when the team sucked would be one of their lowest lows if it weren’t for all the other smear campaigns.

Major League Baseball recognizes Don Orsillo as a play-by-play icon. But John Henry, Tom Werner, and the rest of the Red Sox bastards didn't. Shame on the Red Sox.

The City of Festus, MO canceled their Council meeting for tonight following last night's election whereby citizens voted out of office every single member who voted for the data center there that the people did not want. Micro to macro, that is how we hold them accountable.

There’s no cure for the common cold.

@isolynthe Specialization is for suckers

Where are my artmoots with multiple art styles #art #artmoots #artist

@jadel4w @isolynthe It’s crazy sitting down and sketching and feeling like you’re three different people from one piece to the next.

@isolynthe I’m so damn inconsistent.

“So, let's get this straight. You changed the bidding rules on the first phase?” “Yes, because the contractor we wanted failed the technical score. Eliminated.” “And this contractor, his nickname is "The Change-Order Artist" ... he is, in fact, notorious for ripping off the state of California?” “Oh sure, it's a whole business model. Partners with Richard Blum for years. You know, Feinstein's husband.” “OK. So, there were experienced bidders who had actually built HSR, who had core competency and a delivery record.” “Sure. But Ron's a big donor, you see. He also took a bath buying Miramax, so it was a way for the party to funnel some money back to him. Aside from the film tax credits, obviously. Jerry Brown pulled some strings.” “And the change orders?” “Not even any documentation needed. They tried an audit back in 2018, they found change orders for tens of millions of dollars without documentation. Easy money. Now they're sealing the records.” “They're ... sealing the records?” “People are starting to ask too many questions now, the public get antsy once you get up to half a billion dollars in a single change order, so the IG is going to shield the records. It might "harm the state" if people see them, haha.”

He called it a ball.

@SweatieAngle He’s a swimmer. That’s gonna shave valuable seconds off his lap time.

Omg why are his inner thighs so…so nude 😥

we live in age of great moral panics about things that don’t matter at all and zero moral outrage over some of the most egregious societal sins we’ve ever seen

micro dosing hell by staying informed and educated

“The real power in America is held by a fast-emerging new Oligarchy of pimps and preachers who see no need for Democracy or fairness or even trees, except maybe the ones in their own yards, and they don't mind admitting it. They worship money and power and death. Their ideal solution to all the nation's problems would be another 100 Year War.” — Hunter S. Thompson

it used to be that every older generation had nostalgia for their childhood/college years and you could have a "here's why the 80s were better... or 90s... or 50s... or whatever conversation..." but now everyone over 40 seems to agree that we peaked in about '99-'00 or so in terms of happiness with tech... a nice taste of advances with email and flip phones and even TiVo to skip commercials or getting a flight online (before they made it awful)... but no social media and cameras/tracking everyone and everything... we had some cool stuff, but it wasn't invasive and all encompassing and mostly stupid and didn't bring out the worst in people and companies all day every day
