For some reason I am trying to become a person who posts their thoughts on the internet.
The ratio of times my hair has gotten caught in that bra strap racerback J-hook to times I have actually used that hook to make a racerback bra is infinity to one.

What if all the resources that went into detaining and deporting people were instead used to assist people in gaining lawful citizenship?

If a car has the capacity to be self-driving, why would it ever permit itself to be driven unlawfully? Shouldn't such a car, for example, prohibit a human driver from being able to run a stop sign?

I once again want to commend the City of Berkeley for their innovative reminder postcard. I wish I'd taken a better picture before I cut the PENALTY brick out to save forever.

“Remote Adventure” is a game where I pick an isolated place and see how far Google Street View goes

This is the end of the line on Coldfoot Rd in Alaska.  Initially I thought the camera driver got out of the car to take the image, but if you “rewind,” it seems it was taken by a second camera driver

America right now reminds me of the scene in TV Fargo where Lorne Malvo repeats, “Is this what you want?” and Lester Nygaard, not realizing what he’s agreeing to, says yes. Then Malvo turns and shoots everyone in the elevator.

…but in America, the average voter did know what they were agreeing to.

Remember 400+ years ago when we recognized that anti-immigrant sentiment was vile? 𝘚𝘪𝘳 𝘛𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘴 𝘔𝘰𝘳𝘦 remembers.

This play from the 1590s contains a speech ("The Strangers' Case") denouncing xenophobia. The speech is believed to be the only surviving document in Shakespeare’s own handwriting.
