Smart consumers know that physical media ownership is the way to go. I know game-key cards aren't immune to revoked rights to downloading the game, but they're certainly better than virtual game ownership and the modicum of blind faith required to invest in it.

Man, my wife just visited me at work on her day off. My day just improved by leaps and bounds. Get yourself a spouse that makes your day better just by showing up for 10 minutes. God - per usual - grants me blessings I couldn't deserve without His goodness and it only draws me closer. Good day today

News like this dismantles (in my mind) the commonly held belief that there's any amount of shame that keeps these guys working. Capital is all there is to worry about when you make it your whole life and personality. The attempt to paint him as beloved by anyone other than the rich is silly. Come on

HUGE: Elizabeth Warren, AOC, and other members of Congress have introduced a bill to push private equity out of healthcare. The Stop Corporate Takeovers of Physicians Act would make it illegal for private equity, insurance companies, and for-profit corporations to own or control medical practices.

The fact that both Democrats and Republicans are racing to the 10 side of a 90-10 issue really tells you a lot about the state of our democracy (it's a corporatocracy), and how both parties view democracy in general (as a nuisance).

I watched "Godzilla vs Kong" and "Godzilla x Kong: New Empire." Both are tons of kaiju fun. GvK had better writing and battles, and the scenes with humans dialoging were fine. GxK was the best of the bunch on-average, neither exceeding nor failing at any one thing, but doing it all pretty ok.

If corporations are people, they have responsibilities alongside those rights they grasp for. I mean, paying fair taxes and being held accountable in a life-altering way for breaking laws or causing harm/death (that's what jail is supposed to be, right?) sounds like what we do to most people, right?

Today I'm half-watching Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) while doing mindless office work. This movie exists solely to show off the kaiju. This isn't a good Godzilla movie, but it is a great place to grab clips of rippin' monster fights. The writing is not why I'm here, but it is entertaining.

Getting sudden inspiration for my custom DnD campaign is only either terrifying or exciting. Terrifying if I'm in the middle of something I CANNOT stop focusing on. Exciting if - in a rare moment of not being busy already - I am able to blast out a mad screed to save the idea from evaporating.

No trickling from the wealthy. No wealth manifesting in workers' pockets as their employers widen their wallets. No improvements in the products we buy, no true value added.

The first thing I thought when seeing this: "What's the protocol for harming humans?" There's a non-weaponization agreement. Cool. But this is ICE. How long will the clause stand? How long before an agent gets angry or scared and rams some knees backwards or cracks someone's hip while toppling them?

It's foolish to treat faculty like cubicle-bound desk workers. They're employed in service of the *students* not the admin. What're they doing during that time that's not already accomplished with wildly greater value on their time (personal AND professional)? Rug pulls like this move are so gross.
