Stewart recently did a podcast where he and his guests talk revolutions. He has a historian and the writer of Andor on for this discussion. Highly relevant and interesting. The random chaos of aligned planets, so to speak, that prefaced the storming of the Bastille was surprising.

There is a formula. But the people don’t always react. I fear we all have such incredible inertia to sit in chairs that nothing will ever change. Vance will be President and we will continue to sit in chairs.

Could’ve smelled worse.

Consider the luffa next. It’s a squash of sorts that grows on a vine. The inner matrix of the large zucchini looking fruits is the luffa sponge. Zone 10.

I believe that’s Wisconsin. Polish & German pocket of ancestry.

I’m too old to be able to answer that correctly.

You don’t get to be the victim of genocide and then get a get out of jail free card for engaging in genocide of another people.

So, Bavaria is Germany’s version of Montreal or Florida?

Pretzel and 2 slices of bread.

This isn’t just an Anon problem anymore. My partner is a supervisor and he keeps having to have conversations with the 25 and younger crowd about showering, wearing clean clothes, and either wearing deodorant or coming up with other solutions for working in an environment with other people present. Men and women, 18-25.

No one has Netflix anymore. Do they? If they do, it’s probably inertia.

No, the regular Scrabble app. There are solo games, but mostly one on one games with strangers. And a speed competition more in keeping with real life play.

EA originally owned it. I bought it for $5 back on the first iPhone. Limited to banner ads. Then it died, because it was sold. Now it’s ScrabbleGO. The same with some eyeroll garbage for collecting new tile skins and a store for new skins and some pay to play. If that wasn’t bad enough, every time you take a turn, an ad plays after. Banners included as well. It’s unplayable in its current state.

The closest approximation would be words with friends. Also riddled with ads, triggered to play every 1-2 turns. Also unplayable. Also in addition to banner ads.

Scrabble is officially dead outside of real life play on a physical board. Which makes me sad. Real life play almost no one plays defensively so it’s just aggravating.

My initial thought. But at this point we’re already watching the planet burn.

Ok. Can we engineer the death of all mosquitos already?

Yes. Let’s deport people gainfully employed, paying taxes, and obeying the law. Makes sense.

Please no.

That’s foul. I wouldn’t touch YouTube without Ublock. You ever try watching that garbage without it?

The one app game I like(d) was Scrabble. It was sold and is now an endless stream of ads. Turn, ad, turn, ad, turn, ad, nonstop. It’s unplayable. I had to delete it.

Ad blockers make media consumable. Granted, less screen time would likely benefit everyone.

Health care here still uses fax machines.

So much for Europe being more progressive. They’re shilling for corporate on par with the states.

Jesus, he’s looking old.

So much for “Thou shalt not steal.”

But then, the most ardent believers do the most cherry picking with The Bible.
