@awstar11 When the dominoes fall, they fall fast. Every claim of fascism of the past four years has been projection, and Big Tech, the media, and politicians are wasting no time, now that they have all of the power, to make their dreams, reality.

@SplexyWho Oh I knew you knew what tajin is. You're a cultured woman, despite your awful views on fresh mangos and unripe bananas. I just thought maybe you had some followers who didn't know what tajin is. 😂

@pcg I'm offended you thought I wouldn't know what tajin is. I put tajin on everything. EVERYTHING. And I actually do like dried mango, and dried mango in chile powder as well. It's just fresh mango i'm not too keen on

@SplexyWho They ARE certainly opinions! We would eat wild mangos growing in Vallarta with tajin (spicy salt) & they were divine. Mango in salads are WAY better than any other fruit. Dried mango in chile are a great road trip snack. Meanwhile green bananas are like chewing on the leaves.

@pcg These are all elite opinions SIR!!! Mangos are too sweet. Don’t like them. They’re slimy and just too much of whatever they are. Nothing is better than a juicy watermelon. And underripe bananas are the perfect sweetness and texture. How dare.

@wil_da_beast630 Living is always - ALWAYS - better than dying, no matter how long. This is true for the individual, and it’s true for the species. God bless Charlie and his parents that clung to the hope that God will make all things new.

Lived for how long? This fetus was kept alive for seven months to suffer for two hours after birth? Purely from an optics standpoint, I encourage pro-lifers to focus on stories like this that have a HAPPY ending - I keep expecting the kid to live and grow up, not agonizingly wheeze to death in exactly the fire-air the doctor warned about.

Meet Charlie.  His parents were told his organs were underdeveloped and were pressured to abort him. They chose life. Charlie was born and lived for 2 precious hours before encountering the Lord. Every child is valuable and worthy of life.

@scttfrnks @jmasseypoet The best Ethiopian food I’ve ever had was in Brussels. I’ve been looking for a good Ethiopian place since, but then I’m definitely a sucker for Indian, Thai, Vietnamese, etc. Fine with South African (mostly for the weird game), but don’t care for much else from the continent.

@jmasseypoet 😅 I had it once in Amsterdam. I enjoyed the food well enough and the presentation and communal eating of it was interesting, but it wasn’t something that I decided I’d need again.

I’d like to apologize to everyone I offended with my now-deleted tweet about Ethiopian food. It was inexcusable of me to refer to the dish it’s served in as a hubcap, among other insensitive barbs. I have never eaten Ethiopian. If I ever try it, I will offer an informed opinion.

@jameszimmermann No Excuses isn’t even the best, most 90s song on Jar of Flies (that’s Nutshell), much less AiC’s best song (that’s Would?).

Here’s the 90s playlist so far. The barrier for entry is high – if my 16yo wants a longer 90s list Spotify has oodles of them, this playlist contains only certified bangers. It’s not enough just to be from the 90s, songs on this list have to capture the essence of the decade.

Just got Spotify for my 16yo, curating a “90s Quintessentials” playlist for her. Added Spin Doctors “Two Princes” then played the whole album, it’s as good as ever. Some of the first great “Alternative Rock”, hard to put a finger on what that is but you know it when you hear it.

@EsotericCD Fantastic to see “John Lydon’s new band” (you know, Public Image Ltd.) on the hot tip list. He’d barely released Bollocks and they already had an eye on his next project.

@pcg I don’t disagree, but I do maintain the people saying Christ is King are more akin to the accusers at the cross. They’re taking a true statement & using it in vain.

Don’t be a mean person@happy_at_home_·
‘Christ is King’ is a common phrase lately. I don’t think it sends the message people think. When Jesus is called ‘king’ in scripture, it’s a mocking accusation as He’s on the cross. It’s much harder to say Christ is Lord, because that’s an individual oath for *my* life.

@happy_at_home_ I also think there was a shift in His self-portrayal after the resurrection. He had defeated death, His body was glorified, and He openly allowed His disciples to worship Him. He was once a King who took the form of a servant; He is still a servant who is glorified as King.

@happy_at_home_ I wasn’t referring to Revelation, but to Paul’s first letter to Timothy (1 Tim 6:15). You’re right, of course, that He came to serve and not to be served, and that there are bad actors out there (now, as then). But that doesn’t take away the fact that He IS King, right now.

@mattforney If more American Catholics were aware of what goes on in the rest of global Catholicism, it would blow their minds. (That said, it’s not like nominally-Catholic Americans don’t like their pagan rituals…)

Meh. It has three chords that cycle through over and over again. It's nice and all (and rock simple to play/sing) but it sounds like PABLO HONEY outtake it is. (The song was actually recorded during the sessions for their forgotten 1993 single "Pop Is Dead" and discarded.)
All 90's Alternative Rock@all90saltrock

Radiohead doing “High and Dry” live on Later… with Jools Holland is peak The Bends era restraint. It started as an old Thom demo, almost got tossed, and somehow became the quiet gut-punch that helped crack Britpop’s swagger open. Not trying to sound bigger, just trying to sound honest.

@drrollergator I already thought Christopher Nolan was wildly overrated, but that slop about there being no good third movies in a series?! What a maroon.

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES IS A BAD MOVIE
Christopher Nolan Archives@NolanAnalyst

Christopher Nolan on the making of The Dark Knight Rises: “There are no good third sequels, basically. Rocky III maybe. But they are very difficult. So my instinct was to change genres. The first one is an origin story. The second one is a crime drama very much like Heat, and the third one, we needed to blow up bigger, because you can’t scale down. The audience doesn’t give you any choice, but nor can you go back and do what you did before. So you’ve got to shift genres. We went for the historical epic, the disaster film, The Towering Inferno meets Doctor Zhivago.” Source: Tom Shone’s book “The Nolan Variations”.

@CyberRacheal jwz was one of the first to say this nearly three decades ago: “Linux is only free if your time is worthless.”

Linux is "free" if your time has no exchange rate.  In terms of cash, yes, it’s 100% free. No $100 Windows license, no forced subscriptions, and no "Pro" versions. You can download the most powerful operating systems in the world for the price of a coffee (well, the electricity to download it).  On Windows or Mac, you’re a passenger. On Linux, you’re the mechanic. If your Wi-Fi driver decides to go on strike after an update, you’re the one who has to open the "hood" (the terminal) and fix it. You might spend three hours trying to get a specific game or a piece of Adobe software to run because it wasn't built for Linux. That’s three hours of your life you aren't getting back. The reason people love it despite the stress is Ownership. Windows is like a rental apartment where you can't paint the walls, and the landlord (Microsoft) checks in on you constantly to see what you're doing. Linux is a plot of land where have to build the walls yourself, and the plumbing might leak at first, but nobody is watching you, and you own every single nail.

Is Linux really free, or are we actually paying for it with time, troubleshooting, and stress?
