Proud liberal. Hobbesian. Unix apostate, Classic Mac OS revanchist, tilter at path-dependent windmills. Emacsist.
I am huge Wovles fan but I’m not going to be sad with either of these teams
If you speed, you try a ticket. If you behave like a crazy dick, you get a ticket. You get three tickets, you surrender your license. Scale the tickets to wealth.
There should be zero discretion in draconically applied traffic laws. Letting the cops pick and choose gives us the worst of both worlds. I also think that cities in particular, but suburbs, too, have to reconsider the built environment because fast roads make fast drivers.
Perfect post 10/10 no notes
Just saw a Cybertruck and it occurred to me how funny a remake of Sorcerer/Wages of Fear would be with them. Shit just exploding nonstop before they even load the dynamite.
I obviously have a dog in the fight but Halliburton/Edwards in the Finals is our best possible outcome now #nba
Oh it’s going to be a nightmare, but it will be a personalist cult and not a political party.
I mean I think the GOP is cooked as a presence in US politics the day after inauguration day, whoever wins.

As always, the real based move here is not to subsistence farming, which is always just the expenditure of n calories for the return of n * 1.1, but small band hunter gathering. Get up on your cursorial hunting, Brooklyn leftists! Start chasing horses down!

That they’re a gang of incompetent bullying toadies should make people MORE afraid of them, not less.
How scrupulously lawful are people willing to bet that Kapo Miller’s deportation squads will be?
It also doesn’t have to succeed to immiserate an unbelievable number of people.
It’s going to be harder than it ought because of the antidemocratic structure of the US government but that’s just the way it is.
Necessary but not sufficient is a continuation of the thoroughgoing pasting the real Red Hat types have been taking electorally. They have to lose and lose and lose.
Alternatively, he wins and the conflict between the rump of a law abiding society and his personalist regime accelerates the US Years Of Lead towards actual low level factional warfare. Maybe it doesn’t end up in outright civil war but I think that’s considerably more likely than not.
Sorry no way I was thoroughly Bartleby-pilled in high school and that guy is my hero.
The coldest place I’ve ever lived was Minneapolis and its proper cold the nothing like that. Years in the Bay Area ruined me for places with extreme temperatures in either direction I’m sad to say.
Mr Bunny is now Miss Sprinkles and daughter the younger (7) said “don’t deadname Mr Sprinkles” and I’m confused, but proud.
The fact that deflation is now somehow populist coded is so fucking mental
