That's why I never became a rock star; I had the looks, the talent, the drive, but they asked me at rock star auditions how good I was at beating women and when I said "not very," that was the end of my dreams.

I have another story about accidentally crumpling the front end of somebody's brand new BMW while hauling ass out of that parking lot so I wouldn't be driving when the acid kicked in. that Music+ was a locus of chaotic power

hey @squiggle.au quick, probably dumb question. I'm reading The 22 Murders of Madison May, and most of the chapters I've finished end with a single word at the top of an otherwise empty page. This has to be intentional, right? Or will I just go insane looking for a secret message?

"but but nuclear waste bad" no. a solved problem. put it under that mountain like already planned. **coal power puts the radiation straight into the atmosphere**. oil companies love the red tape that makes nuclear a poor investment. don't support them by spreading misinformation.

I would have punched the most athletic guy in human history who's 7 inches taller, 60 pounds heavier, and 18 years younger than me. I'm definitely not full of shit by the way

i fail to see the controversy with including this goldberg person in the chat. the american bomb planes had to cross the Atlantic to get to the brown people. OBVIOUSLY you would want the Chief of the Atlantic to know what's going on

*exasperated sigh* I really REALLY hate someone replying to me RTing a piece with the whine "paywall". Yes, journalism costs money. Also, you can pretty much always register and read a handful of pieces for free.

sliver of good news is, winds are slowing, even below the 10-20mph from hours ago still northerly, still threatening central hollywood and pasadena surroundings, eaton fire looks massive, has less live news than the sunset fire that *appears* slightly more under control than an hour ago

Unsurprisingly, bad reporting from WaPo "The administration action would focus on the biggest of them, known as hyperscalers, where the training models for AI are housed" and "The administration has yet to share any draft text for the action" YouTube and Netflix use hyperscalers too, so.......

such a strange word. "expat" once meant *temporarily* living outside one's birth country, often for work. an "emigrant" was always "a person who permanently moved away from their country" today, of course, "expat" means "a well-off, english-speaking, usually white person living outside the USA" 🤣
