Well, this is a hell of an article. Great work Jennings. I have so many questions but I’ll start with observations:

Agreed. If a person who’s lied in the past tells you it’s raining, it doesn’t necessarily mean it isn’t raining.

Look how happy he is! You’re never going to see that thing again.

Ugh, Styx. Friend of mine worked at a now-defunct Boston record store in the 80s. Someone on the staff defaced the plastic record divider so that it read “Stynx.” An irate customer came to the register yelling “IS THIS SOME KIND OF A JOKE!?”

Ah, that sucks. Must be terrifying to have this happen to you. I can’t stand his music but he’s always seemed like the quintessential English nice chap. 

I appreciate you writing this. I’ve heard a bit of that Minus 5 album. I’ll definitely be playing all of it this weekend.

So many of them in that twitter thread. 

This got me wondering: are bank employees not allowed to carry weapons? Apart from hiring an armed guard as some banks do, it seems like a possible quick fix. 

Perhaps it is. But intent determines the manner in which change is effected. And that manner matters. 

Pleasurable name:comment synergy.

Well put. 

Didn’t his mom abandon the family when he was young? That’s got to hurt, and is probably a big influence on his bullshit.

I haven’t watch Black Mirror yet. Can I watch Bandersnatch first or does the series give it much-needed context?
