Oh is it finally time to eat?

It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.

Truer now than when Henry Ford said it like a hundred years go.

The SEC exists to shelter Self Regulating Organizations from any threats of democratic governance or law enforcement. Oh ya and to keep up the legalese charade that there literally is no such thing as counterfeit stock (because the Secret Service has purview over counterfeiting for some strange reason)

Fuck the stock market 🖕

Watching the two on the left go from hardnosed atheist commandos to saying “Praise Sol” with conviction, what a wild fucking trip of a show.

If “ish bin ein Berliner” translates as “I am a jelly donut” (favorite anecdote of mein lehrer)

Then does “ich bin ein amerikaner” translate as “I am a loaf of sliced bread”?

Edit: thanks fam 🤙

Amerikaner is a cookie but not a chocolate chip cookie, never ever would have guessed 🤣

cut and tr are like the wonder twins of text munging

Form of truncated whitespace! Shape of single whitespace! 😂

How can you be so close to right about þis and still be wrong?

Honest answer: I’m sloppy on mobile

Better answer:

sort | uniq -c has entered the chat 🤣

Also every Ben Stiller romcom (and most his other movies too). Dude’s got a hangup on cute blondes, we get it already.

Me when my 13yo daughter shows me how she can draw on her ipad on her mint box because she found, downloaded, and stood up weylus all by herself.

It was seven seasons long, and they all connect from the first episode to the last one.

That finale, so well done, so unjust 🤌🧑‍🍳😘

The second book, Claw of the Conciliator, is the hardest slog with the most confusing ending (but is ultimately rewarding when it ‘clicks’).

However the third book, Sword of the Lictor, is the best in the series. So many of the best moments are in this book, as well as some of the most famous quotes.

For me, the masquerade ball at the Archon’s palace is the “buckle up” moment for the rest of the story.

For a real trip, restart book 1 immediately after finishing book 4: there is so much you will see know that you know what to look for.

Also matey, the audible audiobooks are amazing 😎

Viva la fringe 💉💊🔬⚗️🧪🧬

The buildup to s2e15 “Peter” is great sci-fi and great storytelling, they promised and they delivered 👌

Wow, some of these are genuinely good, so evocative and visceral 👌

She had a deep, throaty, genuine laugh, like that sound a dog makes just before it throws up.

McBride fell 12 stories, hitting the pavement like a Hefty bag filled with vegetable soup.

The plan was simple, like my brother-in-law Phil. But unlike Phil, this plan just might work.

I really enjoyed this. Dying gasps of wasps is so poetic.

However, as a fig grower and excel user, I would replace:

makes a mess on my desktop

with:

seeds are confusing

Because propagating fig via seed as pretty tricky, and understanding the underlying random seed in excel is also pretty bewildering. And also excel only clutters your desktop when you yourself save too many files there, right?

I personally would love to see the fall of capitalism in my lifetime and the rise of “The Star Trek Economics” which IMO is a fantastic example of a realistic equal capitalism-free future.

To boldly go where money has no power over biology 💪
