I respectfully disagree with Mr. Hamill.
I have no reason to believe that "accountability is coming."

How do you handle window management with ultra-wide monitors?
I'm trying "Magnet" and... it's just not exactly what I'm looking for.
I use FancyZones on Windows, and gTile under Linux.

I promise that if I develop an artificial super intelligence I won't use it to invent to a robot that can replace plumbers.
I'd probably use it to help solve issues/problems that we as humans actually have trouble with. Paid labor definitely isn't in the top 10,000.

Also... it's OK to not absolutely love everything produced by your favorite artist.
It is SUCH a formative experience the first time your favorite artist releases a bad album. I envy all the kids going through it this week, you’re about to learn so much about the world! You’re learning how to let go!

The first time President Trump did the whole trade war thing with China, they retaliated by investing in Brazil's agriculture sector.
The second time, they were ready. The President starts playing games, they simply decided not to participate.

My most popular and well-reviewed book is $2.99 in ebook form for October, just search your device for 'This Book is Full of Spiders.' You do not have to have read any of my previous books to enjoy it (even though it is the second book in a series, these all stand alone).

Everything Jason said here is 100% spot on.
I realize this position will be disappointing and upsetting to many of you but I personally do not think we want a new civil war that will kill tens of millions of people. Please just hear me out:

All hail wind shear!!! It’s like a buzz saw for hurricanes. And it’s all over the Atlantic cutting storms off even before they get going. That’s one reason it’s quiet now and it should stay this way for the next ten days. Would be nice is if we could keep the shear in place the rest of the season!

I actually have a lot of sympathy for these folks. They allowed a fake culture way to poison their ability to think critically. 🤷♂️
