In 1999 I was in Inverness Scotland. My family was having dinner at a pub, and on the tv was The Simpsons. No volume, just on. Suddenly Groundskeeper Willie shows up on screen, and shit you not, the patrons cheered and started shouting, "Willie!"
A memory that will make me smile until the day I die

I've always loved the cut of Alec's jib. And this video encapsulates why. Research, humor, wit, and then righteous rage! Don't balk at the run time. Every second is worth it and the last 30 minutes is a Howard Beale moment for the ages. Fuck yeah @techconnectify.bsky.social A hero and inspiration.

Minnesota is "The North Star State" and I'd like to think it is because they are showing us all the way as a guiding star.

How do so many people avoid splinters in their taint from straddling all those fences? Or maybe they don't and that's just their thing?
Normally wouldn't kink shame, but one side of that fence is literal fascism.

every “ancient tradition” was invented between 1848-1870 and every “modern perversion” is so ancient as to predate writing

One time when I was working at the butcher shop, a man claiming to be an off duty cop demanded I give him a discount. I said that if he would like to leave his badge number I could run it by the local PD. He turned around and left his stuff.
Giving cops a discount is a bribe. All Cops Are Bribable!

There is going to come a time in your life when you are chatting with a guy, at a barbecue or something, a new coworker maybe, a dad at school drop off, and he tells you he used to be in ICE. You’re going to need to spit on that guy
Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

So glad I discovered Steve's channel last year. Love his takes. He made me appreciate Pulaski for crying out loud!
"But if it's 1000 years from now, why do they talk like people today? Why are there disabled people, and fat people, and why do they still listen to our music, and—"
Stop. It's not a documentary about the future. It's a sci-fi/fantasy show about the present. It always has been.

If I were declared a king, my first decree would be to build the guillotine that would eventually remove my head. Get the ball rolling on that right away.

For over twenty years my dream has been to visit Norway. Specifically it was to stand on a boat in the middle of a fjord at the age of 40 (for the record due to Cystic Fibrosis, I was not expected to live past 30). I turn 40 in April, and the dream has never been further away.
