Vegas is a juggernaut

Been a frustrating week. Gonna unwind with a margarita, my favorite sativa (Sour Sangria from Maven Genetics!) and some good old fashioned nunsploitation from the criterion channel. First up…an Italian film from 1979 (the year I was born!) appropriately called “Killer Nun” 😊

A joint sits in a blue ashtray on a mirrored coffee table, surrounded by a margarita, a gold lighter, and a red rose in a gold jar. In the background we see way too many damn houseplants, a grey couch and a wall mounted TV with a nun on the screen

Picture how big the Hoover Dam is. An absolute unit. The Hoover Dam has a power capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW).

The solar farm that the Admin just cancelled could have produces 6.2 GW of power. That's more than 3 Hoover Dams.

The news was quietly dropped via a sudden website update with no public word from any of the companies involved or a statement from the agency

I think they should just give the ball to Kuminga and let him go hog wild all second half.

Jackson Browne is the greatest living lyricist and I don’t think it’s particularly close.

I also need to know: I am fairly middle-of-the-road on Taylor Swift but someone I know called her the Greatest Living Lyricist. She is not.

Who is yours? Either the greatest or your favorite?

I hate when someone’s shitty post actually elicits a response from me. Always gotta remind myself to just block and keep it moving
