Have these people tried NOT being poor?

@mikeduncan.bsky.social I'm going through the back catalog of Revolutions and finally getting to Season 5. Where could I find the supplement maps and stuff you reference? Thanks!

NO. Names like the Amarillo Sod Poodles make the world a better and happier place.

Pretty sure Marcus Aurelius would agree

He did. They arrested him at his house later.

As an individual, you should always wear a helmet because it’s better than not wearing a helmet. As a society, it’s better to not require helmets because all-cause mortality drops when more people use bikes.

@benaaronovitch.bsky.social I'm eagerly listening to the Audiobook of #stoneandsky, and am wondering if you put in a Glaswegian Texan with a broken jaw just to try to throw Kobna.

No worries on that front.

He was followed by Dubya. Standing next to Danny DeVito, I am a giant.

"They said dress for the job you want, not the job you have. The job I want is the job I have but working for home. And THAT, Susan from HR, is why I'm wearing a Marvin the Martian jammies and fuzzy bunny slippers in the office."

@theresthistory.bsky.social My daughter and I just read Dominic Sandbrook's wonderful Nelson book. She said "The writing is so good that though I know what happens, I can't help thinking Nelson might make it." He is her favorite author, and she even got to meet him after the first US TRIH event.

How much for you to just come and hang out in our living room with a bunch of cinephiles and shoot the shit?

MY GOD NOW WE NEED TO KNOW.

Me too!

@mikeduncan.bsky.social I am unexpectedly misty and distraught at the inevitable end of the Martian Revolution. I subscribed to you on Patreon just for this. I'm desperately hoping we get a special addendum to tell us what happened on Earth with the Nairobi Revolution and The Children of Saturn.

This is going to be my new go-to protest sign.

Man, the FEVS is gonna be RANCID this year

What do you learn from the backs of these?

The Seurat Seascapes? We're going in May and that's on our list.

You've got upper management potential written all over you, Peter.

That one is coming.

Our Agency only has Lexis. If they pull this, we fold our tent.

Our Agency was asked to justify all Reuters products, including Westlaw. For an Agency of lawyers, this would be like cutting the electricity. If it's happening across the whole Federal government, they're going to lose a LOT of cases very soon.

Oooo, following....

SLOW CLAP

Looks like the right main mount collapsed after a hard landing (high rate of descent at touchdown with a right crosswind). Some indications it may have been 2000 fpm at touchdown.

Just coming here to say that...

@mikeduncan.bsky.social Catching up on the Mars Revolution series, and the bit where a Billionaire CEO who is convinced of his own genius and that he can Do No Wrong implements "cost savings efficiency measures" that actually destroy lives and crash the system hits a LITTLE too close to home.

This guy has the coolest job in the world.
