We’re doing our best to match them. The Romans had a big problem with lead in their drinking water, the key difference being they didn’t know it was poisonous.

These murders, and the official response to them (sidebar: fuck Rick Scott and his creepy Bat Boy face) has made me want to go full Unabomber - I am putting on my hoodie and moving to a shed in the woods to make my own glue.

I was puzzled by this look as well, until I realized that only other workout option for this demographic were some Bill Bowerman-era track shorts a t-shirt from a corporate picnic. Whatever their choice of clothes, I was uniformly impressed by their commitment and am sure many of them will outlive me.

Hear, hear! There are good friends, people I overwhelming agree with, that I have started tuning out entirely for this very reason. When one friend started in other day about “neolibs” and “deadocrats,” I found myself straight up saying “Sooo... what else is there to talk about?”

I think about this a lot. And I frequently scream the answer into my sink in the morning, so thanks for giving me a forum to scream it into the void of the internet instead. It feels counterintuitive, but I think I think I’d be a lot more willing to take to the streets with a broken shovel handle if I didn’t have…

I realize this is one of the more minor points in this whole shitshow, but I feel so bad for Dick Durbin.
