You beat me to this but I wanted to point out just how jarringly misrepresentative this photo is.




It's the absolute opposite of suburbian hell, it's quite literally the middle of nowhere, surrounded by Appalachian ridges and rural farmland. It just so happens to be a strategic truck stop where two big freeways meet, and historically it's a transport hub dating back to like the 1700s. The photo is somebody with a 400mm lens being all "do ho ho watch what happens when I do super-telephoto from the opposite hill and crop out the fact that there is nothing but this one street in the entire :airquote: town :airquote:"

Also it's from like 2002 judging by the signs, not that that means it's gotten LESS nuts since then but still

That place sucks though because instead of the sane junction that occurs at any two large arteries in the interstate system, to get from one to the other you have to get off of one, drive through it and the requisite stoplights, then get onto the other. It becomes a massive choke point during any time of year where there is a lot of travel. It’s been suggested many times to build a normal junction but the people who own the businesses raise hell every time it’s mentioned. I hate it and it’s bad and anything that paints it in a bad light is fine in my book.

We should also bring back the largely lost art of movie opening title sequences.

St. Vincent's most recent album "Daddy's Home" is about her dad being being released from prison for white collar crimes of $43,000,000 in stock fraud. She refers to the conviction as "white-collar nonsense"

Lorne has kept everyone on the cast during the COVID years except for those who have left by choice, which has led to the largest cast they’ve had (22 people all trying to get screen time) but has also let a bunch of people continue to draw a paycheck during a very uncertain time. I would expect that a decent portion of the cast will leave after the conclusion of this season.

8 of the original 151 are just birds.

4 are various reskins of a fennec fox, and then they did it five more times in future generations.

There’s also a long history of stuff breaking with updates, which trained people in a bad way.

I have a UniFi Dream Router and the most recent update broke something. It reboots every 8-12 hours now, and it always happens at a time when I’m busy and can’t fuss with figuring out how to roll it back, and then I forget until it happens again.

Windows Updates have been pretty solid for a while now, though.

Let's try another.

If your employer exposes you to asbestos you can't sue them until after you've contracted an asbestos related disease. This can potentially happen decades after the exposure. If it's mesothelioma you likely have 6-18 months to live following diagnosis so call that lawyer quick.

That Warren Buffet guy seems okay, I Iike how he's actually trying to give most of his money away. And then there was that founder dude from Patagonia who gave up his position so all the proceeds could go toward fighting climate change, that was kinda neat.

Billionaires don’t give away things out of the goodness of their heart, they do so to buy PR/influence. Just because the thing they’re trying to influence is something you agree with doesn’t make it a good thing.

I don't think he's a saint, I just think he's doing more net good than the billionaires who spend their money mutating social media apps into hate-speech echo chambers, trafficking child prostitutes, or making torture videos.

Like, he's the only billionaire I know that thinks billionaires should pay the same/more taxes than the middle class, they literally named this idea after him. I'm sure he's some brand of dirtball, but I just think he's on the less lovely end of the spectrum.

Maybe he’s a good guy and maybe his heart is in the right place, there’s no real way for me to know. What I do know is that the foundation that was started is still under the control of the Chouinard family and it’s existence just so happens to save the inheritors over a billion dollars between sales and estate taxes. The overarching thesis amongst all of the charitable endeavors founded by billionaires is that they are the best arbiters of what is an effective use of money, not the government and not any other NGO. I’m glad that he wants to apparently save the environment but cutting out government and trying to do it himself is foolish.
