The dot-com boom appeared to offer opportunities to a generation of young people who had been laughed at for their weird nerdy hobbies. Computer nerds were in high demand. The boom seemed to directly correlate to jobs and advancement. The AI boom is the opposite.

A blue heeler dog, sitting completely inside of a boxwood shrub, his head framed by branches, gazing adoringly at the camera. Some sort of glamour shot.

They said β€œLow drive, a couch potato, afraid of cows. And sheep.” And Halloween decorations, bicycles, guys wearing hats.

the Eugene Police Department narrative that protesters broke a window and attempted to enter the federal building is a lie. The entire basis on which they declared a riot and CBP justified its later escalation was a lie.

Punk rock kid buskers (β€˜The Whops’, tiktok) near the Edgware Rd. They run into Paul Simonon, play Death or Glory for him. He asks if they know The Guns of Brixton. They do -

Renee Good committed gender insubordination: she didn't cower & grovel to male authority. Many women are killed for the very same reason all over the world. We just call it by the euphemism "domestic violence" instead of what it is: a campaign of political terrorism in which any man can participate.

Sports shouldn’t be separated into men’s and women’s. Kids should all play together, eventually with some organizing by level as they get older and more competitive. Any gender separation, if it occurs, should be incidental.

Also Illinois here- my kids say look out, when mom gets quiet and calm, that’s when you know she’s really mad.

This man’s rage, adrenaline, shame, fear, all of it are palpable.

I miss my dad. I would have really strong coffee on. I’d be sautΓ©ing shallots and celery in butter, pulling the trays of bread cubes I’d been drying from the oven, gathering more and more of my stock, lots of sage, making the stuffing.

This is the way. And use Lyle’s golden syrup, not Karo. I have an all maple syrup recipe that is also really good.
