I was shocked recently when a youngish, fairly progressive, fairly online coworker did not know what “it happening” referred to, even with some relevant context. Surely it’s the main thing everyone is thinking of when we think of him?

Do you think Ticketmaster/Live Nation exclusively do arena shows? They control tons of theaters and mid-size clubs. In many markets they’re impossible to avoid, that’s kind of the whole point of the lawsuit.
That was the heir to a different American Evangelical institution: Jerry Falwell Jr. of Liberty University
Pretty cool but if Hayley Williams wants my respect (and I’m sure she does) she needs to get Aaron Weiss out of retirement
If you mix it well enough the first time and keep it in the fridge, you never have to mix it again

A computer can never pack a bowl therefore a computer must never make a playlist
Weird and elaborate indeed. Their Bandcamp has a a ton of music, including two full-lengths released within a few months of each other. All the art is AI for sure, the music sounds like AI too

While that’s true, a lot of kids end up at Christian schools because those are the strings attached to mom & dad/grandpa & grandma paying the bill. It’s an investment in instilling those “family values” in the next generation, and I can say from firsthand observation that it doesn’t always pay out.
If you're not there already, the ending of Beneath the Planet of the Apes will get you there
This hit #4 in 1956. It… contains music, but I would definitely classify it as “non-music”. Listen and you’ll understand.
There were days during my early 20s where the only thing sustaining me was the 1500+ calories in a single Jack’s pizza, on sale for 5 for $10 at the Lake St. Rainbow Foods
People will try and say "well, he doesn't know how anything works" but like, he *really* doesn't know how tariffs work
Thanks John, this was what I needed to hear today
You're dead-on. The picture has to be public domain, and like every other aspect of Wikipedia, there is a team of volunteers working to make pictures of notable people better. @404media.co reported on it last year: www.404media.co/photographer...
My wife still has the original SE - with a button! Already replaced the battery once. Whenever it finally dies the transition to whatever’s available is going to be like going from a Corolla to a school bus
2017 Washington Post headline: "The entire coal industry employs fewer people than Arby’s"
The only thing I can ever think about when people bring up coal miners:
What’s the tariff situation these days with AliExpress orders? I’ve put off ordering a few things for fear I’ll get a $30 tax bill on a $4 doodad
