Note to my non-driving self: ponder incremental valuation.
Democracy dies in darkness
It also dies in the light. The lux value of the overall lighting sitch is f$&king irrelevant.
Without a common reality with discernible truths, there can be no civil discourse.
Without such discourse, common ground lay out of reach.
Democracy dies when that last scrap of land is fractured, when that bifurcating wall rises, inducing tribal isolation, and new mission statements are issued.
Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.
Wrong.
Fuck around and find out.
Digging this out again, since my Morning Joe pundits still can't seem to differentiate between there arses and the barrage of holes in the ground.
It's almost like avoiding your problems doesn't make them go away.
Two Socks is my spirit animal.
I don't know who started the rumor, and, I don't know who needs to hear this (through their eyeballs); but, you can totally polish a turd.
Just sitting here… watching @velshi's segment on bidenomics… wondering how many more years I must wait before all that shit I wrote two years ago slips off point…
Derailment Classification: Existential
Trigger: Any fresh, seemingly beneficial, potentially rewarding, idea (the fulfillment of such ideas being the clay bricks out of which one builds a life of satisfaction)
Nature of Derailment: Fleeting question
Fleeting Question: What's the fucking point?
Way to f$&k up my analogy in under 24 hours, World Health Organization. F$&king aspartame…
Woot! Stumbled upon some golden explore.org live webcam action (and then realized I took a live photo instead of taking video, so giffed that f$&ker).
It's damn near 2024, why TF are these little sh$ts coming through my television set still going on about a dime bag of cocaine found on White House grounds. Just stop it. I know you f$&kers lived through the 80's. It's about as scary, José Díaz-Balart, as sneaking through a pinch of Sweet'n Low.
I'm old enough to remember when it was kind to rewind.
#WhenYouDoNotDeserveCondiments
And if it were zero sum?
The ineffective reach is unfortunate; otherwise, after 3+ years of cross-posting out of Micro.blog, I most certainly would have given y'all an open source iOS app that monitors your MB feed for new posts, automatically cross-posting highly configurable platform specific adaptations of your content.
Did #Threads inherit Instagram's dumb AF image and video asset aspect ratio enforcement? Asking for a friend that can't decide who he hates more, Zuckerberg or Musk.
A dime bag of cocaine still doesn't feel like a story to me, regardless of where it was found (unless where it was found happens to be inside the belly of a bear beside a bunch of its mates).
I'm old enough to remember when a corporation with Facebook and Instagram sized market shares wanting to add a Twitter sized share to their holdings would have triggered antitrust concerns.
So you can yell "fire" in a crowded theater, so long as the whole process is digitized.
The classic rock moniker is officially broken.
Kinda weird how meaninglessness aggregates into meaning.
Not sure who borked who when it comes to Twitter blowing image and preview card display for Micro.blog cross-posts. I'm holding on to all my fucks, anywho. It turns out that when a tree falls in the forest, and nobody is around to hear, it really doesn't make a sound.
Listening to y'all talk politics this morning, @velshi, is like listening to folks shoot the shit about geography pre-circumnavigation. Three years have passed, y'all still don't grasp the context created by the bifurcation of our information ecosystem.
Raise UR hand if U feel like turning yourself in2 a hermit 4 the better part of a decade (social net., pop. 2) while living on a neural cocktail that takes 1 part #ADHD, 1 part #Dysthymia & a pinch of #OCD could trick UR counselor in2 thinking U register on the #spectrum.
