Anthony Bourdain: “…the world is, in fact, filled with mostly good and decent people who are simply doing the best they can. Everybody, it turns out, is proud of their food (when they have it). They enjoy sharing it with others (if they can). They love their children...”
It's the phones.
It's the phones for a hundred reasons. Here are a few:
1) Male consumption of porn reduces marriage (for like 10 reasons)
2) Because of time-wasting college kids and 20-somethings just socialize less, reducing marriage.
3) The dating apps ruin dating (for 10 reasons)
4) Social media gives us a false anthropology, which makes us too individualistic and too averse to connection and commitment.
5) The phones make us sad and make us hate ourselves. If we hate ourselves we don't want more of us.
Absolute nonsense. Backing into parking spots is 🐐.
The back in is superior in safety, efficiency and has the added benefit of enraging people who cannot comprehend others doing something different than them.
Physics: You put your pivot at the back of the vehicle, literally making it easier to direct the vehicle. Pulling in puts your steering ability in first and limits correction.
Guidance: It's far easier to see where you're going with a camera telling you how to align / where to stop.
Data: All traffic data from NSA and AAA showcase that backing out into traffic / pedestrians is worse than backing into a space.
In which I make the case that Miller Lite is the anecdote to the decadence of a professional class that constantly chases novel gustatory experiences and has come to confuse this empty, hedonistic quest with being cultured.

The mic cut out during O Canada at the Sabres game.
Buffalo filled every single second of silence.
Sang it word for word.
This is how you tell your neighbors you see them.
We love Canada. Don’t listen to the noise.
I love this teacher (Jonathan Buchwalter) who gave the best testimonial for phone free schools last year.
He strikes again with this observation: there is a big SES divide in who is raised on ipads/screens, and who is protected, which will amplify social class inequality:
Only one chance in this lifetime…
Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him.
I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.
New record🥇
The Artemis II astronauts are now farther from Earth than humans have ever been! At 1:57 p.m. EDT, they broke the record set by Apollo 13 in 1970.
Their journey around the far side of the Moon today will take them a maximum distance of 252,752 miles from Earth.
