it gets better, don't let other people ruin your self... West Coast big cities will treat you like a dime a dozen and you will probably find big groups of like-minded people. Even in my city which is more conservative has a good sized alternative scene.

i wish you the best friend

keep an eye out for crows

we watched a nest in our yard and the day those little babies tried to take their first flight, crows came and killed them the minute they were out

No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.

So Congress is okay with this clear Emolument?

this is true, if you have privacy categories setup and you use something that isn't rated for someone, they won't be able to see it. Kinda like permissions. Government and Medical environments is where I've seen it applied. It's a beast to implement.

I used to be able to join teams meetings in the browser version of teams from my Linux machine. I did my last job interview this way

I knew someone that did subtitles

they are basically like court transcriptions, they watch the show and type up the lines and then submit their work back to the studios during the editing process

Ken Andrews is a great musical talent. The band Failure is amazing. This Year of the Rabbit was a side project during the time Failure was basically over. Ken was dealing with a heroin addiction, as the lyrics probably tell. Long story short, Ken kicked the smack and got his shit together but YotR didn't pan out. He later reformed Failure and the produced the best music records of their bands career (IMO) and are still making more. Plus Ken has had his part in so many big hits over the years. He is a true inspirational type of guy.

Still a fucking rockin tune and I just recently got a copy on vinyl and it sounds soooooooo good. I remember seeing YotR at a small venue in Seattle, seriously maybe 80 people in the crowd. They were so good. I chatted with the band outside after the show. It is a great memory.

this song gets stuck in my head all the time, the ending is so good. Its the last song on side A, which makes that last part even more epic

 

I can dream up schemes when I'm sitting in my seat
I don't see any flaws 'til I get to my feet
I wish I never woke up this morning
Life was easy when it was boring

I could make a mark, it weren't so dark
I could be replaced by any bright spark
But darkness makes me fumble
For a key to a door that's wide open

Instead of worrying about my clothes
I could be someone that nobody knows
I wish I never woke up this morning
Life was easy when it was boring

I can dream up schemes when I'm sitting in my seat
I don't see any flaws 'til I get to my feet
I wish I never woke up this morning
Life was easy when it was boring

I wish I never woke up this morning
Life was easy when it was boring

The Comfort of False Equivalence
There’s a seductive kind of cowardice masquerading as wisdom in modern discourse: the insistence that all extremes are created equal. It’s what allows the centrist to shrug and say, “Well, both sides are dangerous,” as though morality and method exist on a balanced scale, and history is simply a record of shared mistakes. For MAGA, this rhetorical laziness isn’t just useful. It’s strategic.

 

I love the picture of the customer service lady
