I once saw Rand Paul at the movies and Kenny Rogers at his chicken restaurant. My opinions are my own and do not reflect my employer.

Everything Price Sufferer (but especially eggs)
The year is 2003. You are an elder millennial up at 1 AM. The internet is asleep. You turn on channel 11 and guiltily watch the trashiest shit that's ever been aired.

@ChrisJacksonSC From now on, I choose to only call them “Waka Flock-a” cameras. Because hey, if they’re not going anywhere, then I might as well have some fun with the name like the great rapper Waka Flocka Flame

Decided to go down a rabbit hole on Flock and actually read their TOS agreement and all the legal stuff on their website and its done nothing but reinforce my views on them (mass data collection and surveillance should be against federal law pursuant to the 4th Amendment). Anyone that sells weather content or newsworthy video to media orgs knows what the section in yellow means. “You’re giving flock permission to use and disclose customer data in perpetuity.” But I thought Flock doesn’t sell data to 3rd parties? Well, they have written their TOS to make it seem like they don’t sell our data outright but the underlined section is written as it is for a reason. Basically even though data “ownership” is retained by the customer, the customer also gives Flock a free license to use your customer data in perpetuity (forever) for any manner that may improve Flocks products and services which is written extremely broad and vague on purpose. If they can use our data in any way to make them more profitable, then that’s improving their products and services. And they can continue to do this even if a customer terminates their agreement with flock. (They don’t have to own the data if they receive an irrevocable license in perpetuity to use it) Combine this with their Feedback clause and you’ve got a business model that allows LEO’s to do certain things that normally would be protected by the 4th Amendment. It also allows Flock to use LEO’s as corporate guinea pigs via any feedback received, in any manner, that they can use to better enhance their products which will also more importantly improve their balance sheet and their financial portfolio. And for the people saying there’s no expectation of privacy in public, that is true, however that doesn’t mean I give a for-profit company my consent to monitor my movements enough so that they could build a product for LEO’s that contain a profile and pattern of life on anyone. Wait until the next “pandemic” happens. If you thought the government forced lockdowns that destroyed so many small businesses in America were bad, with Flock and other companies like Leonardo with their SignalTrace integration, the next time there is a “pandemic” the amount of tyrannical government overreach will make Covid look like child’s play.

@GrassCityFC You don’t have to hate on the CFL to love MLS. Now, you should hate on CFL shifting closer and closer to losing its 3 Down, Rouge, Big Field-ness.

Unfortunately, the Lions are simply a bigger draw than #VWFC. We must finally accept that Vancouver is not a soccer city. Pay no attention to the sold-out World Cup matches or the global praise for BC Place. The CFL is clearly the cultural heartbeat of this city.
Farhan Lalji@FarhanLaljiTSN

BC Lions owner Amar Doman is interested in purchasing BC Place from the Government of British Columbia. The idea of an entity other than the Province of British Columbia owning the 43-year-old stadium came into focus Friday morning when BC MLA Ravi Kahlon admitted to Postmedia’s Patrick Johnson that the province would consider selling the stadium, “if the parameters are there.” The idea of purchasing or managing BC Place has been something that has been of keen interest to Doman for more than two years, but he wasn’t convinced the province would consider the possibility.   Doman’s interest in the stadium preceded, and is not connected to, the current ownership plight of the Vancouver Whitecaps. In recent months, the subject of the MLS Whitecaps potentially taking on a management contract for the stadium had been regarded as a potential solution to keeping that franchise in British Columbia. As discussions around the future of the stadium have intensified during the highly successful World Cup, Doman recently submitted a letter of interest to the Provincial government. The Lions recently signed an extension to their lease at @bcplace @SportsCentre

@CinemaTweets1 I loved it, thought it was great. My one issue was and always will be the female character that was a composite character. They didn’t have to show the dozens of individual scientists and engineers, but they could’ve done better than just distill it down to one person.

Chernobyl is one of the best things HBO has ever done. Released in 2019, part of this limited-series’ appeal is the fact that we get to see Jared Harris and Stellan Skarsgård at the absolute top of their game. The storytelling here is ripping yet totally haunting. When I think of a perfect limited-series, I think of Chernobyl.

My grandpa talked about this like it was Vietnam
Echoes of War@EchoesofWarYT

On June 4, 1974, the Cleveland Indians had one of the worst ideas in sports history: 10 cent beer night. A cup of Stroh's went from 65 cents down to a dime. Limit of six per trip to the counter, but you could go back as many times as you wanted. So basically unlimited beer. It gets better. A week earlier these same two teams had brawled in Texas, so Cleveland fans showed up already wanting blood. About 25,000 packed the stadium, way more than expected. By the middle innings it was total chaos. Fans were setting off firecrackers, throwing hot dogs and rocks, and running onto the field. A woman flashed the crowd. A father and son ran out and mooned the outfield. Streakers everywhere. Rangers manager Billy Martin just stood in the dugout blowing kisses at the drunks screaming at him. Then the Indians tied it 5-5 in the bottom of the 9th. That's when it fully broke. A kid ran out and grabbed Rangers outfielder Jeff Burroughs' cap. Burroughs stumbled, and Billy Martin thought his player was getting jumped. So he grabbed a bat and led the entire Rangers team charging onto the field to fight the crowd. Then the Indians came out with bats too, to protect the Rangers from thousands of drunk fans. A reliever got hit in the head with a steel folding chair. The umpire, Nestor Chylak, got cut by a thrown rock and a piece of a stadium seat, and needed stitches. He forfeited the game to Texas on the spot and called the fans "uncontrollable beasts," saying he'd never seen anything like it "except in a zoo." The best part? Cleveland had four more beer nights already scheduled that season.

Peter Dinklage reveals why he pushed for fewer dwarf character roles despite costing little people jobs. “I just wanted to not be a fantasy dwarf. I wanted to have a dick” “When clinically, what you are has become sort of poached by the fantasy world as a term for somebody who’s not human like a gnome, fairy, pixie, elf” “When you play that you’re clipping your balls and I was like … I can’t be clipped guys” “And they do that with nationalities and many more. We gotta be careful”

Former WWE Superstar Hornswoggle reveals why he hates "Game of Thrones" actor Peter Dinklage. “Fvck you Peter Dinklage. I fvcking hate him because he caused so many people in my community not to get jobs with the Snow White bullshit” “It pisses me off. He costed so many people jobs” “He wanted to make a statement and thought he was making some cool/hip thing but he wasn’t” “When he did Elf, that check cashed just fine. Tyrion Lannister was a role for a little person and he cashed that check” “I’m okay not going for Brad Pitts role. Give me grumpy or happy or sleepy”

@queerthecloset @dieworkwear Maybe but AI is on computers too, basically anything connected to the internet has AI somewhere in it. I’m not trying to ban AI, I just think that young people should be educated and actually learn things, including research, not just how to use AI instead.

@dieworkwear Instead of banning cell phones for young people, maybe we should ban the use of AI for people under a certain age. Make them learn how to do actual research, to look things up instead of just letting them take the easy way out.
