Flightaware live tracking from my app over the middle east showing no traffic over Iran and all flights diverting north or south. A ton of planes over Turkmenistan just north of Iran

Leave it to Lyft to definitely not track your movements or save your history. Here’s to saving $10.

Abe, it’s not “cool” or not, but very different in a lot of ways. I’m poor as dust living in New York but I’m glad I get to, for example, wander the Met for free on a whim. That’s fun!

I literally had the drunkest, sleepiest guy falling asleep against me and spilling his white claw all over the subway floor at 4:30 this morning on my way to work. Violently nudged him a bunch with no response until his friend finally woke him up at their stop. Humorlessness indeed.

There’s so much grass in these world class parks we get to hang out at. Or beaches. Or trails if we take a train for a little bit.

I very-annoyingly, and righteously, say “I’ve gotta get back to the city” when I’m hanging out in Chicago. It’s understandable.

Anyone that goes through puberty a second time voluntarily is basically a hero on the bleeding edge of humanity.

They would be a huge, huge act of bravery at this point.

Okay. I’m broke as all hell. I don’t know my place in this world basically since I gained sentience. And we all know this is a ruined world. And I don’t believe in any gods, nor hell. But!

Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired, our most bare emotional and irrational states, so often activated by a brutal car commute.

Exactly.

The thing is that there’s no running metric. 10 miles in 24 hours obvs isn’t running it’s walking very slowly. Bring on one’s feet at work. Run 3 5ks intermittently? That’s tougher. And a beer and a taco an hour is basically just socializing. So you’ll be full and tired for $50MM, got it.

And from what they said on the pod, it seems to be hundreds of more dollars for 8 weeks than it was when I did it

I took lessons and had some matches there probably 9 years ago, and yeah, the conditions weren’t wonderful! One week the sheet was mostly puddles. But it was very fun, and the people were great! I’d love to go back

This is the dumbest shit ever. “Run” 10 miles in two hours, which isn’t walking, and then casually enjoy 24 beers and 24 tacos over 22 hours. I’m donating $49,998,000 to charity because it’s so easy.
