  Wainscoting. Sounds like… a little Dorset village. Wainscoting.

  …unless you heat them up first, to kill the bacteria; two minutes on HIGH ought to do it.

  The moral of the story is: no rusty banal or shitty memory is banal or shitty enough, for these postmodern kids nowadays to NOT commoditize it as “nostalgia”. EXACTLY like their boomer parents with their own rusty banal or shitty items in their memory bank.

  “I look around me, and the horizon seems to be at the same distance everywhere I look, therefore it must be obvious: I am at the center of the Universe.”

  Here’s a strange idea that just occurred to me, to further push YIMBI-ism:
  Make electricity free for all those who live within a certain radius of the solar arrays.

  Chuckables.
  Guffawfables.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hertz, showing the difference between science and engineering⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He might have won the very first Nobel Prize, had he not passed away just a few years prior, and much too young, wasn’t he in his late-30s or early-40s?

  In fact, I believe that had Hertz remained alive and won his prize, the Nobel Committee would not have felt obliged to give it to Marconi a few years later.

  Marconi was a back-stabbing asshole who became one of the wealthiest men in the world by abusing the gentlemanly trust of others, and coasting on someone else’s technology - particularly the way crystals oscillate, and some of them serve nicely as a sort of “translation point” between electromagnetic waves and the physical apparatus that transmits and/or receives the signal.

  Hey Farva! What’s the name of that restaurant you like?

  Imagine a sci-fi world, far in the future, where there are enough old unearthed pennies to be used as currency, but they are scarce enough to acquire great relative value.

  “Hey, that must have cost a small fortune!”
  “A hundred and twenty five pennies, to be exact.”
  “Damn!”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pico de gallo is fruit salad⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Pico de gallo is also the name of a fruit cocktail in my town in Mexico.
  Chunks of jicama, orange and… there’s another one I’m forgetting.

  You sprinkle salt and powdered chili on top, then squeeze the juice of a large lime on top. It’s all eaten with a toothpick, you spear the chunks of jicama, orange and the other one.

  The blues singer character Mississippi Gary from The Kids In The Hall comes to mind:

  I got the blues so bad, I can’t even shut my eyes… I gotta call a friend on the phone and tell him - “Buddy, come over and shut my eyes for me, I got the blues”.

  Not just fascists, also those who empower fascists by sitting on their lazy ignorant smug asses on Election Day, bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL aMiRiTe, who want some sort of collapse to happen… because they fancy themselves at the top of their imagined new food chain, I mean… look at their purity! Aren’t they so special and so above it all?

  They read things! On the internet! Wow!
  They reject anything that doesn’t fit their narrative. They LOVE having their hollow ego massaged in circlejerks and by bad-faith actors.

  God forbid anything less than perfect and pure crosses their medieval path, lest they feel offended and… oh yeah, they do nothing. Which is why we’re in this goddamned mess in the first place. They allowed racist, misogynistic fascism to take firm root, good luck weeding it out now.

  It’s like these mentally lazy ignorant people look all around themselves, see how the horizon is basically at the same distance all around them, therefore conclude that they must be the center of the universe, then sprinkle in a few fashionable internet soundbites and catchphrases to “make themselves sound interesting” and “with it”.

  Well… you keep on giving the most rabidly ignorant, recklessly greedy bigoted zealots the keys to the kingdom every 4-to-8 years, what did you expect?

  Then when Democrats can’t fix everything quickly while under constant zealot attack and sabotage, you reward the saboteurs with the keys to the goddamned kingdom again. All while you proudly proclaim that you’ve got it all figured out, because you read a blog post or tweet somewhere:
