  1. SETTING: 1e-12 seconds after the designated start time for a meeting with no agenda that in theory ends 6e2 seconds before the next atual potential designated start time but won’t, just like the meeting before it didn’t.

    CLOSE UP: A computer screen. A chime sounds and a second person joins the meeting and notices that they have arrived 0.0000000000001 second after the start time and aren’t the first to arrive.

    UNAMED PERSON: ”Hey, sorry i’m late.”

    It seems reasonable at this point to drop ‘attorney’ from attorney general bondi’s title given their claim that they are at war. And, as a bonus, descriptions of their future prosecution by attorneys deserving of that title will read better in media and in history books.

    "general bondi”

    not much to be done for noem: “homeland security” is already a cheese enough of an organization name, she can keep it.

  4. Enjoyed seeing Hiromi’s Sonicwonder at sf jazz last night ( https://www.sfjazz.org/tickets/productions/24-25/hiromi-sonicwonder/).

    I grabbed behind-the-stage "cheap seats” for a friend and I at the last minute after watching a video of them at the Blue Note in Tokyo ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SX9x8ibuwok ) and it is very representative of the show. I grabbed a record on the way out.

    the group is playing through Sunday.

  5. Won’t cve just be instantly replaced with nearly-as-good systems that prop up resistance to calls to action, arbitrage that is hidden from most but burdens all, and discloser/disclosee story-changing quicksand full of synecdoche and misdirection?

    It’s almost like we centralized a thing for good reasons that we’ll now rediscover because of [spits on the ground twice] libertarians?

  6. The Sons of the Pioneers are playing at the Freight in Berkeley this Friday, so I think, not gonna go, but, cool outfits, who are these people? It turns out: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sons_of_the_Pioneers neat.

    Anyway of course I come to their big hit, Tumbling Tumbleweeds ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jV81D9YMXYo), from the Big Lebowski but this time I looked it up and while I can’t sing and play guitar at the same time, I can sign and play this one at the same time.

    Pretty fun!
