wake up the vikings and the crusaders; there is work to do.

Latest haul.

[high plains wizard @adarkercemetry]

Tune-up no. 3 finished (Trouble).

(looking at my twinkling Christmas tree as I type this)

[Damon Hunzeker @DamonHunzeker]

At this point in the year, taking down our Christmas tree seems increasingly counter-productive.

It's only a matter of time before vigilantism fills the sucking void created by politicians and judges.

[high plains wizard @adarkercemetry]

Baby, I was radicalized in the 90s when it all began to fall apart.

[high plains wizard @adarkercemetry]

What radicalized me? Living through the second and third turning in a high-trust society and watching it all unravel around us despite the obvious signs of decline.

My eyeballs rolled back so hard that I saw the theater exits when they introduced the bad guy whom no one had heard of and with no backstory. I knew they'd kill him off because that's what Star Wars does.

[Clint Warren-Davey @Clint_Davey1]

By far the dumbest decision in the sequels was to introduce this new big bad guy - Snoke - and then kill him off with absolutely zero explanation of who he is or why he's important.

And then re-introduce the same big bad guy from the original trilogy because they ran out of ideas.

I don't care what direction the @NBA leans politically, until they clean up the game, it's unwatchable and has been during this entire millenium.

Authenticity shouldn’t require effort.

Good will prevail, but unfortunately we must first battle through a lot more evil.

[high plains wizard @adarkercemetry]

Cool. Now send me back to 1972 so I can say hi to the only best friend I ever had.

[Pop Base @PopBase]

Today is National Best Friends Day.

[high plains wizard @adarkercemetry]

One of these days one of my posts is going to get double-digit views and then I'll have to shut this account down.

I also still have the iron I bought so my chinos would have a crease and the salsa and spaghetti sauce jars I use as glasses to this day. I call it my 'divorce crystal'.

[high plains wizard @adarkercemetry]

In November of 1994 I had one foot in the gutter and barely two dimes to rub together. The divorce was sudden - I was out shopping for basics at Mervyn's so I at least had a bowl to eat from. I still have that bowl and after doing the math, it has cost me $.0001/day to use.

Quite remarkable how much trouble a single robot vacuum can get into.
