15. So Gollum hissed:

    “Neither an abstract concept nor a static state.

    It lives in the people.

    It is the people.

    It is our best hope.”

    Unfortunately for Gollum Bilbo had heard that sort of thing before. “This is why you got zero electoral college votes!” he said.

16. https://vimeo.com/656798631 1x speed but not really singing or swinging yet, and not played idiomatically – wrong position!

    normal tempo to listen to, still feels like shredding to play

18. re: kellogs and starbucks and amazon and etc

    “the CEO makes 300x or 1000x what most workers make” is definitely a thing to eye pop at and I’m not tryna question seasoned organizers I’m a complete idiot but socialists should probably get better at reading SEC filings

31. [after winning the lottery] the lottery is the greatest game in the world and 17th-century-fancy-word-that-just-means-RNGs are the best way to game!

    everyone should just win the lottery!

    look at all other people who simply won the lottery! I don’t know what a denominator is!

32. https://www.modernwiki.app neato, I has something similar but much, much dumber up on http://userscripts.org in 2010. nice to see that war never changes.

34. time goes a lot slower at the playground because all of the sand is pretty much all already at the bottom of the hourglass. it only progresses at all on account of the little kids who carry some back up the slides

35. another goat

    

36. drop-ins there consisted of making a first-available appointment while in line (for something like the 13th of december?) the normal way and then being seen immediately anyway

    unfortunate process, probably causes people to wait for appointments needlessly

37. neat, mac os monterey (12) bound the emoji keyboard to fn-e instead of whatever nasty shift option command spacebar mangler it used to eventually respond to

40. the entire try life school thing is pretty depressing tbh.

    learned-helplessness with lean-in and a cashmere sweater tied over the shoulders. a sinecure with a mission, vision, and strategy. a lemonade stand in a gated neighborhood with a substack.

    spit-on-the-ground worthy

41. every two panel bit simultaneously like the wall of tvs behind the architect while he blah blah blahs about the terrible simulation we thrive in, and each one’s got these two knuckleheads on it

43. 𝓓𝓡𝓘𝓟

    

44. reading up on the bios of my enemies so that later we can have expository dailog to move the plot along and then wincing a little at how wierd it gets when they explain to me that i’d read their bio to move the plot along.

50. letters, even

51. 360 words to summarize Seinfeld posting “what’s the DEAL with anarchists?”

52. it’s fine if everyone has their favorite critique and I think generously we gotta assume they don’t mean “for absolutely all cases” unless they say so but, but hierarchy and centralization are two of many great organizing approaches, I can’t imagine rejecting them outright

53. as a corporate bureaucrat, I find the idea that we will eventually, if we manage the contradictions appropriately, be able to effectively do what my teams and I do in a flat organization, or via some sort of set of shared values, to be utopian

54. La Wuigi

55. J&J splitting is like when you have to unsubscribe from the “hot deals” list it even though you already unsubscribed from “promotions” and “product news” and 17 others, in that, because of the complications, they say, it’s technically fine, they say

56. idk how the website works but in tweetbot, when I block/mute someone, I still see quote posts, it just doesn’t render the inner, even if I also keyword mute their handle

    so I just tried to keyword mute https://twitter.com/their_handle, and now even the quote tweets are gone! hell yeah

57. we offered 10% under asking on a condo last month, seller would not budge

    we offered 5% under as a final counter, seller would not budge

    [one month later]

    seller dropped asking 2% and asked if we would come up, we would not budge

    SOME JERK bought at asking

    great system!

58. one fun trick, almost a propaganda tranche, is to argue from a seemingly damning sum of weak individual list items, or assertions really, and then tell on oneself by not pursuing the huge-if-true conclusion to ground

    unserious and disrespectful and careless but very effective!

64. The Prestonomicon

65. calling something “currency” is just another of capital’s naming-things sham

    alternate version if I wasn’t just posting indecipherable nonsense for myself: everything about blockchains and crypto and nft and the next scam is next is foolish and despicable including the people

66. the deere worker strike is much more interesting than the democrat capital strike, to me

67. e.g., https://youtu.be/wdJ_AXje5iI

68. listening to an old Dylan “Theme Time Radio” episode (because whoever wrote and picked for the show did amazing work and most of the tunes are fun to play guitar with), and in this one he reads a letter from none other than Alan Dershowitz, haha ( https://www.themetimeradio.com/episode-13-rich-man-poor-man/)

104. police have found a cache of “strike anywhere” matches near the site of todays unrest. agitators often use matches like these to give law enforcement officers the old hot foot, which causes them hop up and down and say “ow! ow! ow!” and then dunk their hot feet in troughs of wat-
