Hoosier in Seattle since 2021. Randy Newman once told me he liked the way I saw the world. I love all weird 70s and 80s music and movies, and video games.

Yeah perfectly ok that my Google TV exploited both recent celebrity deaths to get me to watch their ads. Totally normal and ok and not ghoulish.

Happy birthday Pike Place Market, opened OTD in 1907. One of Seattle’s top tourist destinations and the place where I enjoyed my first avocado. They weren’t sold back East in the 1970s.

Plenty to reflect about re: the Arday affair, but I'm going to repeat this one thing. The playbook the right used here is effective even though it's not especially sophisticated, as it relies on the audience to do the dirty work. I've been calling it "Trojan horse propaganda", let's go with that. 1/

A large bag was thrown out of the white house window and the official response was that it never happened. The back of his hand shimmers most days. Some officials are showing signs of alcohol and substance abuse. Factual, evidence based news is often paywalled and quackery is easy to access.

We’re watching all the tell-tale signs of authoritarian takeover and people are waiting on them to slide on armbands. The mechanisms are all sliding into place, in full view, and most people haven’t been properly prepared by education or even popular culture or history. It’s maddening.

A good steering wheel that doesn't fly off while you're driving. A good steering wheel that doesn't fly off your hand while you're driving. A great steering wheel that doesn't whiff out of the window while I driving. That is a good idea. Too small. So when you get in there, you're like, "If the steering wheel fly off, I'm toast." I think it's a good idea, and I stand by. Teacher's pet. Stinky! What about if it is stinking inside?  I'm sorry. I cannot think any good car idea because this guy keep farting. Shut up, Paul. You probably love your mother-in-law. Oh, my God, he admit it! You have... no... good... car... ideas. I'm doing the best at this. You flinched, Paul! Now you have to marry your mother-in-law!
