Low Key Loki

I'm gwachob most everywhere. He/him

Nerd (tech, but all kinds). Recent immigrant to Seattle area from my native bay area. Karaoke.

I talk about tech, music, politics and other stuff. I write code, got my J.D. for fun(?)
Someone made a good point on a show yesterday - he clearly *knew* what was going on and in no way did he not have a moral obligation to prevent the harm he was seeing.

And that's assuming he wasn't participating directly.

So definitely not an NPC. He's a relevant actor in any room he is in.

Yah, I never expected a smoking gun, but what I did expect, and what we're just starting to see, is the network of people who are mortal ethical/policy enemies in public and buddy-buddy-rich-assholes in private.

And it's a demonstration of just how much a part of this world Trump was.

Don't ask me to choose between the Specials and the Clash. Like choosing between children.

There's a lot of music from then about young people not having a lot of hope and having to take things into their own hands and resisting power structure. Also reggae. How could I forget reggae.

The Clash covered all the bases.

Just weird bugs that had decided to camp out down behind the toilet or gotten in through a poorly sealed hole or something.

More of a comment on the housing stock in the Bay Area than anything inherent in the area though...

I said the Bay Area, not Florida :P

You should have seen what crawled out of the toilet back in the Bay Area...

Wut.

Hard disagree!

But I do agree that animals are usually better. The Flyers' Gritty gets me every time.

He's been doing good for a while, I think? I didn't know about his good deeds or that he was a Seattle area guy until I moved here... And don't forget he's a PBS hero... One of those very active fundraisers, even for local stations.

Yah all of us near the rivers in western Washington are *very* aware of the continued operation of the water monitoring and reporting sites. Critical info, people make life/death decision based on this data and predictions.

It's way more actionable than even weather reporting/predictions

Wanna interview Cory?

Sit down and watch him lecture you on the world! You ain't asking anything!

It's pretty amazing watching Cory get soooo media savvy over the years. He basically steamrolls this interview (in a good way) to give a lecture in his typical high energy, slightly dramatic (in a good way), colorful and funny summary of the state-of-the-shit and how we got here.

Great watch.

Actually nobody really knows what the song is about really, but this sounds reasonable?
