At the OBGYN waiting room where an expecting father is watching loud videos on his phone with no earbuds. How early is too early for CPS?

Danged frustrating when people mistakenly ascribe diabolical puppetmastery to my ham-fisted criminal incompetence.

In the long-run, this is just a placeholder for the eventual resurrection of 2014 Project Connect once the final nail goes into 2020's coffin.

The advantage it has over the painted lane is that it's not fully of debris and broken pavement.

It's not ideal, but it's better than the status quo? But also, Clarkson on the other side of the tracks has essentially the same functionality and level of access to businesses on the east side of Airport (none).

They're working right now to close the gap between that part and the rest of it to the north of 51st. Once finished, you'll be able to ride from N. Lamar to 45th on a separated facility that has a ton of driveways you have to constantly be on alert for.

At any rate, I always thought it was weird to put Pride/BLM imagery on surfaces we literally tread on.

The decision between β€œask the coked-out robot to draw the building you’re literally sitting in” vs β€œsend an intern with an iphone downstairs” is sure indicative of some things

I'm all for more coffee shops, but what my neighborhood needs is *affordable* coffee shops. Americanos accesible to working families making less than 60-percent MFI. And enough of this counter seating. We need booths big enough for families of four or more.

3 Screenshots from the movie "Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey" (1991): First, an exterior view of a civic auditorium with palm trees and a marquee reading β€œSept 15 4th Annual Battle of the Bands.” Second, Bill, Ted, and their friends pose together with Death, two women, a pair of furry alien creatures, and robot versions of themselves in a dimly lit space. Third, a lively concert scene with Bill and Ted on stage performing with a band, colorful stage lights overhead, and a bearded musician striking a dramatic pose.

"This city is dead and an Hermes store and tall towers and a new logo ruint it," I grumble from my gaming chair in Cedar Park as vintage bits from The Goon Show beam through my body.

Adventures in Sound - Peter Sellers Special - KOOP Radio 91.7 FM This Saturday on Adventures in Sound: we'll celebrate the 100th birth anniversary of Peter Sellers!

Good and interesting and even "weird" things continue to be freely accessible to the entire city every day and you don't even have to go on Reddit and wade through that's-a-thing-i-recognize "jokes" about the 45th Street Chili's to enjoy them.

Joyless age made worse by ubiquitous 90s pop playlists at grocery stores and coffee shops. The ambient soundtrack of 21st century fascism is apparently Dawson's Creek.
