Maybe we don’t let the WSJ be the arbiter of culture. You like midcentury? Rock on. You like shag carpet? Do your thing. Don’t take style advice from a newspaper that would put commodity prices on the front page if an asteroid hit the earth.

to be fair to the trop the only MLB game I've ever seen in person was the twins vs the cubs at the metrodome and it had bright orange foul lines on the roof, which 100% got hit

The ex-RR-Bentley dealer in Zionsville has a couple of them out in front of their building. They are really cool but I assume the price is up there with like a used DW12 tub. I'd be better off trying to build one from raw materials I feel like than trying to ever get one.

I needed to break a 20 last week and the closest place to me was a gas station with one of the guy-in-a-shack-behind-glass-that-you-can't-even-enter things. I had hoped they had gum or something, but it was all tobacco and dick pills. So I asked for a pack of winstons and it was 13 smackers wtf

Wisconsin skydivers jump to help victims of plane crash in cornfield
A group of skydivers alerted emergency crews before jumping into action to help after noticing a small plane crash in a Wisconsin cornfield.

from comments: "Two of the skydivers were trained EMTs/former paramedics. They reached the wreckage first and treated a passenger with a severe head injury before ground EMS arrived." www.youtube.com/watch?v=3a-z...

The hilarious thing about Whole Foods banning MSG is that Whole Foods is, nonetheless, packed full of MSG.

Is your brain full of mind vampires?
A comic all in red, depicting a man with a cut out of his brain with a vampire skulking inside of it. 
Big text at the top says "is your brain full of mind vampires? you are not alone."
The vampire says "bleh! bleh! I am 2000 years old. Bleh! your only desire now is to find my amulet."
The man says "Dang, gotta find that amulet."

Further text at the bottom says "there is no cure for mind vampires but there is support and management. Know the warning signs, get help early."

I know how self-interested it must sound from a software engineer who specializes in cross-domain integration to say this, but! This stuff really does matter for a wide variety of core functions of a modern state! I would take a pay cut to work on it full time.

We're up in South Bend today to memorialize dad's recently deceased twin brother, Jack. A viking berserker born out of time. A true party animal. It is good to see all the old South Bend people. If central Indiana becomes untenable somehow, I think we could live here or Michigan.

neglected to get a photo of it, but one of the highlights of our train was alighting and seeing a large sheet of cardboard tucked into the luggage with a 4' marker drawing of a sailor saluting and speaking into a speech bubble "I SALUTE MURICA'S RAILROAD" yes king so true
