Luchasaurus is the only face in this match. Loving how pumped the crowd at #AEW #Wrestledream is for his return. This one's been a lot of fun.

Caught Tron:Ares last night, and found it to be a fun flick with amazing visuals, killer soundtrack, and a hopeful take on crossing the digital-material divide. Less dystopian that the Matrix movies. Overall, I enjoyed the experience, though the IFC disagrees.

Goddammit. Every major ideological or philosophical concern of our present horrifying age leads back to Karl Popper, doesn't it?
This is my roundabout way of suggesting that you read THE OPEN SOCIETY AND ITS ENEMIES very carefully. It's amazing to watch him hit Plato, Marx, and Hegel so hard.

Gonna start referring to productivity software like people talk about video games.
"Oh yeah Google Docs is a Cloud-bases Word-like."
"Trello is a Lanestyle Jiracore Tasklike"
"Only weaklings need to use a Pomodoro to get through Sheetstyle work."

I got out again this last weekend
Far enough away that there was no cell service, no internet
Far enough away that the smartphone might as well just stay locked in the glove compartment
Because it had no use aside from being a backup egg timer or flashlight
And it was good

Another pet-peeve: The suffix of "punk" (aside from Cyberpunk) is largely a useless signifier in that A: The "punk"element is rarely, if ever present, and B: So many of the derivatives of this are redundant and frankly sound ridiculous.
