1970 edition in pale Caucasian with vinyl bucket seats
Not associated with the band "The B52s" but can belt out a decent version of "Love Shack"

Entertaining oneself while waiting for the last vestiges of optimism to fade. "ergo, to trudge"
Do we really have no better option than shuffling into new Serfdom?

("Classic Serfdom", now available in potato diet)

I swear, this species is not very good at extrapolation. (Most of them think it's something to do with pegging)

NFTs

I ended up doing EFT from my PFI. The BT was an A1 deal, but dealing with this bunch has already exceeded my "are you forking kidding me" tolerances.

If enough people felt things were bad enough to elect Il Douchey, maybe we can cancel BOA in '25.

Well, if 2024 has shown us anything, there's an alternative to the Golden Parachute waiting at the end of a CEO's career.

Available in Metric and Imperial.

Yes, Yes and Yes.

To be clear, I am differently abled.

It's no excuse to be garbage.

Now... can cyclists be more annoying than Crossfitting, Vegan Atheists to talk to?

Well, no more than a climate skeptic.

So, Britain: sort it out, you bunch of muppets.

In the meantime, we might all benefit from sending an extra insurance payment next year, but into a Legal Defense Fund - just in case we have to defend those who protect us from these predators.

Expensive as in eating into their quarterly profits.

So - yeah - just easier to decline them. If they really need it, they'll make a fuss. Good thinking there, Sparky.

So, to all of those cursing the US Healthcare system even more than usual, my condolences.

Despite appearances, it wasn't a peasant interaction.

I'm a nasty suspicious type (Some might call me paranoid, if they weren't too busy trying to GET me)

That felt like:
1. Back to work, peasant
2. There are less troublesome peasants out there, peasant.
3. Don't even think about creating a fuss about it, or it'll get far, far worse for you, peasant.
