Hit single “Faded” from their debut album “yellowcake”.

on the third episode of Pluribus. So far it's interesting a novel but kind of suffers from Vince Gilligan-ism.

Does he know ANY character-driven plot device other than self-sabotage?

Sepia toned hostility. Nice.

Liszt wrote very little actually good music. Most of it is just being technically excellent and is boring as shit.

A few notable exceptions (Consolations, Hungarian Rhapsody #2, Hungarian Fantasy). But mostly bleeeech.

I’ve loved gasworks park since I was a child, when I climbed all over the structures easily high enough for a fall to be fatal, while my dad smiled and watched.

Different times.

But I’m not crazy about bubble-wrapping the planet to keep everyone from getting booboos.

Sure it’s a bee? My house had wasps.

Economics aren’t why birth rates are falling: humans raised more kids with less money for forever.

What’s changed is that we expect better lifestyles and we do not consider children as a replacement for wealth.

And that’s good: the planet can’t manage 10 billion people anyway.

I feel your wife’s pain. My distance vision is 20/15 but I need -1.5 lenses to read a book unless I want a headache.

No it isn't. The chirality of the S doesn't work. It can't be flipped. It has to be ROTATED Pi radians.

It’s a great vasoconstrictor! If you’re bleeding badly, and don’t have ANY of the MUCH BETTER medical approaches available, nicotine can help slow bleeding.

We are drawing the line before that.

Satisfying run. One day, I hope, I will run hard again.

Back in a church rec room with bad coffee and a bunch of happy drunks where I belong.

It's perfectly possible to be an aggressive, assertive force in sport without being an asshole or resorting to petty, thuggish threats that make one look small.

And if I were the coach, I would say that he’s not playing again. Until he makes a public apology.

See if I were the league, and somebody said that prior to a game, they would be suspended without pay for the rest of the games between those two teams for the rest of the year.

These have failed over and over again. I would never speak to a person wearing smart glasses. I will walk out of a conversation.

It’s the chickens who offered themselves up to the dogs in animal farm.

Oh I think they also come down to a kid of acetic fake humility that is similar but distinct. It’s a kind of piousness.

I firmly believe that the only “purpose of life” is whatever we choose for ourselves; there is manifestly no larger design.

The described purpose here is among the better ones I’ve encountered.

I think this is performative humility.

Symptomatic of a particular kind of persnickety reductionism around the moral accounting of self which reminds me of religious autoflagellation.

You’re welcome.

She is the most inexhaustibly tenacious person I’ve ever known.

I assume by the time the match starts I’ll be on a plane for Seattle.

Hey scis wanna be mad? My friend is presenting at a google developing conference.

Google is paying for his flight and hotel. He does not work for Google.

This is standard in dev conferences. They pay for all presenters to travel and stay at conf.
