My cat watching Kraftwerk, "Autobahn" on Youtube

In this satirical work by
a 19th-c. Russian writer, a shiny new town mayor shows up. Nobody knows why, but everyone likes a new mayor. Yet one day he's found in his office with his head separate from his body, and his head has no brain! Shocking, but the mayor keeps talking, remains mayor. Absurd!

What a mayor!

Once again, the Mayor shows his unfamiliarity with basic statistical concepts, despite a fondness for spinning numbers. You cannot have a "sample size" of two years. A sample size is a number of people surveyed or of items being researched. Two years is rather a short duration, not a sample.

I just bought this at a used bookstore so that somebody else couldn't. I'm petty that way.

I read it at age 18. I enjoyed the "love" story, prob because I'd watched too much General Hospital due to a long convalescence from a virus, and as a result I had very low standards for romance novels.

Wow
He knew, almost 90 years ago, where things were going.
He was assigned for a course I took in graduate school, but we never discussed it; prob the professor never got around to reading it.
Read it

I mean, this is the road from Barrington Street to Africville. Need I say more? To avoid this travesty, you can get there from Novalea, if you're wearing hiking boots, are physically fit and have good navigation skills
September 30, 2025 at 12:54 PM
And no sidewalk on this chunk of Barrington, even though there is a little sign indicating to bear right to get to Africville. Trucks go roaring by. This is DOWNTOWN Halifax (note non-moving traffic on MacKay Bridge). It's almost like someone wants to discourage people from going to Africville?

Africville, park with rebuilt church. . It's not easy to get here on foot, but it is possible.
September 30, 2025 at 12:22 PM
Africville Lookoff, Halifax. To my right and below, there was once a Black community. How many people enter Halifax through the MacKay bridge and think that there was always a tangle of shitty ramps, ugly warehouses and confusing exits here?
September 30, 2025 at 11:55 AM
Great news! No more tolls to cross Halifax's MacKay Bridge!

Btw, people used to live here. How about we collect tolls to pay reparations?
