It’s fairly remarkable that once the boomers in CA got their free college, and bought a cheap home due to post-war building they just knocked out all of those support structures for everyone else. Free tuition, gone. Housing, banned. Property taxes, frozen. Generational level sociopathy

My favorite bit of stadium naming lore… August Busch wanted to name the Cardinals park after Budweiser. MLB said no to naming a stadium after a beer so he called it Busch Stadium and then 2 years later Busch beer hit the market

A friend was hosting bar trivia one night and I joined a random team of their friends. The theme for the night was “1994” and when the second question was about OJ it became apparent that I was the only one at the table who was /alive/ in 1994

I know some people think it's unfair that Robert Reich gets dragged over this every single time he pops his head up online, but I personally think it's great. You shouldn't be able to live down the fact that you NIMBY'd a 4-plex in central Berkeley.

Doing a critical read of a quarter-wit‘s propaganda book is certainly a choice. Feels like you’re actually doing him a favor here by playing along with the fiction that his ideas merit good faith engagement. Even Rich Lowry doesn’t think Rich Lowry’s ideas merit good faith engagement.

Here’s the thing though… if it was a back channel meeting why the fuck is Jeffries there himself? This is pretty basic stuff. You are a principle. Kushner has no official role. You know they will leak the meeting. Why are you personally there? Clown shit

Jeff Parker ETA I lVtet in Berkeley last night. Cannot recommend this band highly enough. Ethereal minimalist improvisation. Book ending this show with two Fred Frith projects last Thursday and this coming Tuesday. It’s a good week for free/avant jazz in Berkeley!
Jazz band on stage under a sign reading The Freight. Right to left is a seated tenor saxophone player, the upright bassist, drummer and a seated guitar player.

My second and third shows. Our first time traveling for phish, about 4 hours from home in StL. We started senior year of high school a couple weeks later. Guess I know what I’m listening to on the dreadmill this morning 🥳

I’ve enjoyed this decades long running bit in the Phish community where people reference a totally made up song (“DEG”) that the band has allegedly been teasing in jams for years. Gotta say it’s pretty innovative to start inserting it into other jamband discussions. Hippie snipe hunt

Just swapped cars at the end of a lease and parent corp sent a survey. Guy who helped me texted to say if I wasnt going to give him max scores to call him first. When I didn’t reply to the survey for a few days he texted again and said his pay depends on me responding with all 5 stars. Deranged
