There is only one Florida Man, though he exists in many places at once.

As a human being, human beings are the worst. If it wasn’t for our tendency to completely dominate our environments, I don’t know why the world would put up with us.

That one bite from the middle is going to be super satisfying.

I’ve been happy with Tidal. Their library is extensive, you get better sound quality and it’s cheaper than Spotify. No podcasts or audiobooks but I use different services for those anyway.

Microsoft are a bunch of pussies also release the Epstein files!

Won’t happen until there’s demand which won’t exist so long as flying is so accessible.

People fly because it’s the fastest means of travel. The fastest trains will never be as fast as flying but people are also never going to be able to drive as fast as high speed rail.

I say do it! Air travel is a huge waste and harmful to the environment. Maybe this will finally lead to better trains!

Misogyny is a helluva drug

When it comes to the next election, I’m not fucking asking. They may forsake the Constitution but that doesn’t mean we have to.

A Republican, the party of fiscal responsibility, ballooning the national debt to record numbers? Who could have seen that coming??

On one hand, yes, many Americans’ morals are backwards and ideally humans being killed, brutalized and disappeared by this administration and it’s agents would get more attention than an old building.

But on the other hand, that’s unfortunately not where we’re at. But where we are at is many people who would otherwise support or at least feel apathetic to what this administration is doing are appalled by the destruction of a national icon and I’ll welcome any step towards eroding the support this administration has from a significant group of Americans.

Maybe it’s a vegetarian thing but I almost never have to worry about eating stuff that’s off. Unless there’s visible mold on it, so long as it passes the sniff test and sometimes taste test if I’m feeling a little suspicious I’ll eat anything that’s been in the fridge over a week without any noticeable consequences.

He never apologizes though. He just demands you accept he has a right to do whether the hell he wants.

2020 started off just like any normal year and then BAM, global pandemic. It came with some novelty. The Democratic primaries were wild but at least Trump got voted out of office. So long as you didn’t lose your job or a loved one it was a bit of a shake up and brought people together though commiseration.

2021 the novelty of the global pandemic had worn off. Holy shit they tried to coup the government, good thing they’re morons. The vaccine became available. The Olympics happened a year late. Kinda boring after 2020 but we were also still dealing with the annoying aftermath like washing our groceries.

2022 Russia invaded Ukraine and people rightly felt outraged by it. Midterms weren’t as bad as they could have been but the Republicans still took the house. Also, we entered a recession and people were getting laid off left and right.

2023 layoffs and recession still happening. Inflation too despite the economy starting to pick back up. Hamas attacked Israel which gave Israel an excuse to start genociding Palestine and people were rightly outraged.

2024 Israel is still genociding Palestine and didn’t Biden say he was only going to be a one term president? Why isn’t he bowing out? Why isn’t anybody challenging him? Oh God, he’s going to debate Trump? Holy hell that was bad… Oh NOW you’re dropping out?? I guess we have no choice but to go with Kamala. At least she picked Tim Walz, he’s relatable. Wait, why are you campaigning with Liz Cheney? Oh no… Nonono. We know better than this, come on! … Fuck.

2025 Yep. It’s pretty much as bad as we expected it would be…

I’ve been using cannabis for years and I love it. I am generally careful when it comes to developing dependencies. I check myself every once in a while and I don’t self medicate or pretend I’m taking it for pain or sleep or whatever. I take it because I like being high and I’m not ashamed of it.

I am worried about long-term effects. Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s really freak me out and it would suck if there turned out to be a link there. But there’s a good chance something else will kill me before I get there and I’m not sure I want to give up something I so thoroughly enjoy just to live a little longer.

I tried taking a hiatus in January. I read about mental clarity coming back and feeling more rested. I felt none of those things. I also didn’t feel any intense cravings or withdrawal symptoms. Just boredom and dissatisfaction with life in general and I don’t have a lot of hope of that changing with or without weed.

Tell that to Fetterman voters. I really hope Platner wouldn’t be a Fetterman 2.0 but now it’s not unheard of.

I switched to Tidal two years ago and I’m happy with it. As some have said, it’s missing a few features but nothing critical to me at least and it being cheaper is worth most of the missing stuff I didn’t use. >95% of the tracks off my 800+ running playlist of liked tracks that I manually ported over from Spotify were available on Tidal.

“I don’t sweat labels. Because sweat makes you stink and the only stink I follow is my instinct.”

Gotta love Link’s unique style of wisdom
