As per my usual vacations, I’m driving around the country this week visiting national parks. They are all completely unstaffed, and it breaks my heart that the crown jewel of American humans, park rangers, are forced to the sidelines.

If you don’t think the housing market is about to snap in two (right with tech stocks and take the economy down with it), then peep this house and Google where Cortez, Colorado is.

I’m spending October in Colorado, but need to come back to Nashville for 48 hours to speak at a conference. Not a rental car to be had in the entire city. Nashville just becomes lamer with every passing minute, and I hate that us old timers are just all trapped there now.

This is a corner of property in Vegas, in front of the Virgin hotel that the Boring Company was going to put a hyperloop station. When I was here 18 months ago, the my were just “starting” on it. This is that same lot today. They haven’t done a thing.
Nashville, this is our future.

Like this from Fort Pulaski, the handprints of black children who were forced to build the fort. The parks system preserves the story so we don’t repeat history. But it makes people “too uncomfortable”, so they’ll just erase it.

Had 4 free hours on Thursday in Rome. A co-worker said to me, “Let’s just wander over to the Vatican and see what’s happening.” 3 hours after I shot this video, we had a new pope.
At the front of the barricades, we met some tailgating Canadians.
(That world famous chimney is comically small.)

Was at the Vatican today, approached by the media asking if we were American and if we had come just for the conclave. The disappointment when we told her we were on a work trip was palpable.

I read all 384 pages of this over the weekend. To say it is brave to go up against one of the world’s most powerful companies is the understatement of the year. Can’t recommend enough!

I can’t put this book down. Such a fun read because we all know what a loser Zuck is. I just got to the part where he extols the greatness of Andrew Jackson, maybe America’s most brutal president. It all tracks.
12/10, let’s make sure we continue to buy this book and all laugh at him together.

I’m not worried about “inflation”, I’m worried about these absolute fucking losers pushing us directly into the next depression because they are so unbelievably stupid.

I want to send some kudos to @freddieoconnell.bsky.social and NDOT…I live on a primary snow route and it is pristine. I know the same can’t be said about the interstates, and we owe our local folks some gratitude for how long of a weekend they are going to have.
