I was about to say the same. I host a plex server from my PC. Downloading music (or even more so, ripping a CD) really beings back that solo, meditative approach to building a music collection.

I don’t know you and your situation obviously, but you might look into what you are eating or drinking in the evenings. If I have any alcohol, I for sure wake up around 3am with a racing mind. I suspect some foods have a similar effect and that it’s related to metabolism for me.

Fully agree about pointing out the hypocrisy to those who are in power and those who are, for lack of a better expression, too far gone.

But what about those who tend to vote conservative, but not exclusively, and are maybe less online and politically informed?

Excellent post. In the SNES game Earthbound the player could set the color of menu borders. A minor thing, but as a kid I thought that little customization was very cool.

Don’t pretend to know what the world looks like through anyone’s eyes but your own.

And no straw man arguments either.

There’s a great episode of Switched On Pop that details this and many versions of the song.

🙄 Fact check: they said Thornton put out her version first. Your post says the same thing. 🙄

No one in this thread said steal. But way to be super weirdly defensive about Elvis.

And yea, anyone who listens would hear it’s a different version, although with very similar choruses.

That was Big Mama Thornton. But you are right about Elvis.

I don’t understand this dichotomy. People are allowed to dislike both, even if they dislike one more than the other. Also, there are many more democratic politicians other than the governor of California.

You are comparing a one-term senator from Chicago with a guy who has been governor of California for 6 years and was mayor of San Francisco for 8.

If he hasn’t made up his mind on trans people and the homeless by now, I don’t think becoming president will solve that.

The other side of that coin is devaluing the work of anyone involved in filmmaking, and the arts in general.

It’s such a snake oil pitch. “With this one simple trick, you too can produce movies on par with Hollywood—better, even!”

The ol’ uno reverse.

It feels so desperate and convoluted. I get that they need to make money, but I will never do sponsored quests to get orbs to get nitro to get a cat ear avatar.

It’s time to return to IRC and forums not hosted by venture capitalists.

You are not wrong, but I don’t think that’s what “Summer of 2020” was referring to.

I always feel the need to tag @rob-sheridan.com in a post like this.
