I knew a guy in college who was like this. He was a teetotaler because of family history with alcoholism, but he tended bar and was fascinated with mixology.

Look, I have no problem with people who choose to live in the country. I may join them someday.
But part of the tradeoff involved with removing yourself from the center of most human activity is that you have to accept a simple mathematical reality: if a political leader can travel 15 minutes to meet with 100 constituents or 3 hours to meet with 10, it’s generally a better use of their time to meet with the 100.
This is why I’m unsympathetic when I hear rural North Carolinians complain…

Iʼm pretty sure if that were the case I would have heard about it. Look man, sometimes you guys make it too easy, but I canʼt feed on the powerless when my cupʼs already overfilled.

God, I wish Eddie Vedder was still alive to see this moment
“We allege that Live Nation relies on unlawful, anticompetitive conduct to exercise its monopolistic control over the live events industry in the United States at the cost of fans, artists, smaller promoters, and venue operators,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a statement. “… It is time to break up Live Nation-Ticketmaster.”

Iʼm fine with this. We should build more computer-controlled systems to last decades without the need for significant upgrades.

Yeah, youʼre going to convince a lot of people by hijacking a cute cat pic post with a dickwad politics meme. Youʼre an elevator farter, arenʼt you? We all can tell. 😆

The thing about it is, even if your enemy does have a super double-secret military base in a civilian hospital, that’s too bad for you, but it doesn’t give you license to bomb a fucking hospital. This should not have to be explained to you.
