I’ve been a fan of that clip for a few years. So today I was looking for it and found out the entire stage play is on YouTube as well, with video. Finishing it up now. It rocks.
401k’s and such do function to mentally invest you in capitalism. My 45+ year old coworkers are obsessed with the stock market as their retirement accounts swing wildly by 80k from time to time and get mad at whatever they perceive as the cause. Occasionally it’s Musk or Bezos but equally as often it’s unions or any tiny bit of government spending that might actually do a sliver of good. It’s sad to watch.
Intimidating your geopolitical opponent with awkward AI generated images of soldiers. Allow me to inarticulately mumble about Guy Debord.
And then us old account havers get cancelled for having lawns! And I wouldn’t have it any other way. Dandelions 4 life! Unlimited weeds on the suburban world!
One of the financiers borrowed money against the studio to buy more of the studio in order to do a hostile takeover and pushed the original creatives out. There’s stuff about kurvitz being a toxic boss but the source is the business guy taking over the company and the rest of the core team don’t seem to be backing up the claim about kurvitz.
That was a really powerful revealing moment for anyone who didn’t already understand that democrats don’t solve crises, they merely weaponize the spectacle of the crisis to promote their level headed managerial aesthetic. If you have an attention span, aren’t completely in denial and care about actually solving the crisis you discover very quickly that they wield their newly earned power as little as possible against the crisis.
A lot of us think most people are communists in waiting but as people who actually believe in something we have seen just how powerful a nihilistic cultural identity that opposes communism is and how giving people the right information does nothing because they have a lifetime trained immune response to these specific ideas. It’s infuriating that liberals think their tepid “information” and a pity hug would effortlessly bring conservatives to their values neutral Jesus
Did the study last year and was 2 incidents per hour under. It’s an interesting American experience to pay $150 (after insurance) to learn that I have it but not enough tobe considered properly diagnosed and prescribed any treatment.
As others have said obesity is a common cause but not the exclusive cause of it.
I don’t feel a shred of sympathy for them but it is funny that they’re excited about their home values going up when it means they’re paying like $300 more a month in taxes… and if they sell and buy a new home the “gains” in their home value are instantly wiped out by the inflated price of their new home. The system isn’t really working for them either but stock market brain prevents them from understanding this.
Silently but visibly mouthing “can anyone hear me” until someone younger tells me to unmute myself even though this is my 500th zoom call
As a former employee, I hope you were showing up for the cheap or free pizzas right before closing. We ripped the box tops off to signal to inventory that we threw it away, then gave it out or sold it for a couple bucks we pocketed. That was a looong time ago; they probably have better prevention systems now.
Area 51 gun game at the bowling alley in my grandparents small town. During regular life our home consoles were the star (didn’t have to beg adults for spare change) but when we were stuck at that smoky bowling alley waiting got the adults to get tired that was the best time waster.
I’m by no means sober, but when I don’t want to drink but still want the feeling of having a tasty drink with less candy sweetness than American soda, I have found a few good options. Italian bitter sodas like Crodino, Sanbitter and Chinotto. And pathfinder: hemp and root. They have the complexity of a good cocktail without the alcohol. Expensive though.
Down the road from our city’s giant parking lot and sports complex there’s a part of town the city forgot. Mostly junkyards and dilapidated building. There’s a diy punk venue with a beautiful vegetable garden / smoking patio out back. The cops don’t seem to go to that part of town so they’re left alone.
My mom is making Costco chicken nuggets for family lunch tomorrow on a friends recommendation. I have an air fryer; is it my duty to take it over and do this?
History rhymes. Are they gonna get Sorkin to pen another movie afterwards?
Yep. Every toxic power dynamic when even an infinitesimally small number of people defy it.
What if you only mow once the grass is so tall the city could fine you?
I see we have a resident asbestos expert. A few years ago I was responsible for removing some equipment that was mounted to the drop ceiling before they demolished a room to renovate. A few days after my part while they were mid demo the asbestos remediation signs showed up and big tubes were strung through the hallways. I didn’t work in that building so I’m not worried about what was disturbed by demo and spread around but have to wonder how much exposure I got being in the plenum space for about fifteen minutes.
“fighting”
Chastising leftists, donating to Amy McGrath clones and doing 45 minutes of voting a year.
Hardcore.
The 3/8th-cent sales tax extension would have helped build a new Kansas City Royals stadium downtown as well as fund renovations at Arrowhead Stadium for the Chiefs. Tuesday's vote followed months of intense campaigning from both teams, and a concerted opposition from community and activist groups.
