Rich people want to live where there is stuff to do. Rich people want to know famous people. Rich people want to eat in good restaurants. Rich people are never leaving the cities.

We are at war and the economy is crashing and the social contract is being actively and willfully destroyed by sociopath billionaires and their sycophants and I know everyone knows all that but sometimes it just makes me want to scream

Playing select, semi-appropriate songs from Tenacious D’s self-titled album Tenacious D for my son and if I am being honest with you that album still slaps as hard as it did in 2003 and I still remember all of the words including the dialogue between songs.

Lori Chavez-Deremer is resigning and since I am one of a handful of people directly responsible for setting into motion a series of events that led to her becoming Labor Secretary, I am feeling good about her total collapse and sad flight home to Clackamas County.

Not for nothing but there were hundreds of people at the No Kings protest in Oregon City and at least 60% of them were white boomers who had signs that would have made them blush ten years ago.

My unpopular opinion is that the NCAA tournament should have 356 teams and every game should just be two minutes long with both teams getting two timeouts and four fouls.
