not sure which i care about less: john roberts’s ability to vacation quietly without being criticized for his jurisprudence, or some mid-coast maine vanity island for rich new yorkers

my brother had a commodore 64 I remember playing with (also apparently a TRS-80 but that predated me) but *my* first computer was an old IBM XT, quickly replaced by a PS/2

lol matthew schmitz is not only a princeton grad who lives in new york city, but one of the leading lights of the attempt to create a new right wing intellectualism around schismatic radical catholicism and culture war populism. i'm very interested in his thoughts on ella langley, obviously.

man who the hell knows, i'm sure this is recency bias but when i saw plains a few years ago they brought opener MJ lenderman on during the encore to do terry allen's 'amarillo highway' and i was pretty tickled

the trade stuff is complete gibberish but we’ve known this for awhile, interesting thing to me is the part where he has “we” should have lower interest rates because america has better credit than switzerland?? like does he think the fed rate is america’s credit card rate or something

i hate to pick on mike here because i agree with the rest of the thread and have given up my anti-helmets-all-the-time advocacy efforts, but these arguments irk me because (1) bike helmets do little-to-nothing to prevent concussions and (2) head injury anecdotal arguments are always overdetermined

the first CD I *remember* was 'the traveling wilburys vol. 1' but that was my parents'. the first CD that was *mine* I think was this long out of print john lennon solo box set my uncle bought me for christmas in ~1991

the almost-2-year-old is really testing my "never refuse to read to her when she asks" principle. solid 45 minutes on the floor reading every single board book while she eats her bowl of chickpeas one pea at a time.

very funny that the leading fake-progressive NIMBY website mostly dedicated to destroying a park to make it slightly easier to commute from daly city to marin has just completely embraced wall to wall AI slop

look the scooters annoy me too but there are 95 comments on this post and zero of them are from people who have ever actually been hit by one of them (though of course everyone "almost" gets hit by them on a daily basis). meanwhile about 300 people in SF have been killed by cars in the last decade.

here is a very long article considering the debate over whether teenagers should be banned from an outdoor music festival (???) www.sfchronicle.com/entertainmen...

Does Outside Lands have a teenager problem? Fans clash over crowds
A burst of complaints about younger concertgoers after Outside Lands’ opening day has revived an old debate over whether the all-ages festival should impose an age limit.

this annoying park ranger was hassling cyclists in the headlands this week for riding two abreast and not breaking into groups of 10 or fewer at 7 in the morning, so I couldn't help but snap this pic of the marin side of the bridge today

so the times just ran their big scoop on the galliano costume institute show complete with a parade of quotes from jonathan greenblatt and prominent new york city rabbis about how they believe he’s reformed and grown and learned. meanwhile, let’s see what those folks have had to say about the mayor…

idk, a bunch, but the funniest one is kenny burrell - 'god bless the child' which I'm not sure I've actually even listened to in full but it's such a classic CTI cover I accidentally bought it twice for probably $4 each time

the summer before 9th grade, my last summer without a job, a couple years after i’d started listening to contemporary music, just pre-TRL when radio still set the pop music agenda, maybe the most locked in to pop music i have ever been aside from possibly college. whew.

this discourse always just demonstrates who never has to get up before 8 am (which is a much larger proportion of text based social media users than it is of the population at large)

look I also think RFK Jr is the greatest threat to public health in recent history but this is one lot of frozen blueberries from Chile, and the CDC traced it and issued a recall, like they always do in the many e. coli incidents that have happened under every president, so it doesn't mean much

I need everyone--PBS, shams charania, the entire white house press corps--to stop reporting as news that something was said if you have not even tried to confirm that it in fact happened. "a person said something" is not news.
