Damn. If only anybody had been able to see this coming.

He’s tried a bunch of different media personalities over the years. He’s enough of a chameleon that I think he’ll be able to figure something out.

A couple of those personalities were really boring or cringe, though.

Anecdotal, but in my experience fake wood does not count. Just on Friday I said knock on wood and used some fake vinyl bullshit. Cut to 5 hours later, the exact thing I was trying to ward off happened.

Listen, I’m the first person to point out that the D party has it’s fucking problems. But saying “both sides suck” is just bullshit. A sprained ankle and and amputated leg both suck, but let’s not fucking equivocate here.

Democrats don’t do anything.

Republicans do evil things.

Yeah, one side is fucking worse.

Motherfucker’s talking about adding crunch to a peanut butter banana sandwich?

Seattle just passed a millionaires tax. Howard Schultz, the old Starbucks CEO, made a big stink of it and moved away.

Thing is, Howard Schultz is universally reviled in Seattle. Even corporate shills agree that he fucking sucks.

Unforgivable.

Nurses, teachers, public defenders, social workers, therapists, etc etc.

The system knows that if you got into a job for any reason other than money it can fuck you over.

Isn’t Facebook itself a private intelligence-sharing network?

Fuck it, go a step further. No cars on these streets. Commercial delivery vehicles allowed 5-9am, otherwise they’re cordoned off for foot traffic. Streets like Pike Place and Ballard Ave are no place for cars.

And I’m not a fuckcars guy. I love driving and I love cars. But nobody benefits from aggressive rideshare drivers or clueless tourists meandering these places. If you’ve gotta get places, there’s an arterial a block away.

Does it really matter if he killed himself or not? Either he was murdered, or he was intentionally allowed to commit suicide. The conclusion of both of those options is that the people in charge did this.

Absolutely was. No ill intent. Just… dammit.

I once had to work super late for dumb reasons. I called the security company and told them I’d be working till ten, so don’t freak out that the alarm system doesn’t get armed. Lady said “Done. Thanks and have a good night!” in a really chipper tone.

Motherfucker I just told you I’m working till 10pm on a Sunday. I’m not gonna have a good night.

It’s funny. My introduction to his work was the ending to Wheel Of Time, which I found pretty disappointing. So I avoided his books for a long time. I finally broke down and read Mistborn, and now I’ve been reading Sanderson stuff almost exclusively for a couple years.

You really want to learn some stuff, look into Barr’s dad. Then realize that the asshole doesn’t fall far from the tree.

It’s very good if you’re into high fantasy. It’s a time investment, though. 6500 pages and counting.

Because of the implication.

I learned at a young age that I’m not cut out for retail. I can fake it for a minute or two, but I’ve got a short fuse and a sailor mouth.

Nah, Violent J endorsed Harris.

They’ll do a knockoff Gathering, but with KISS fans, because Gene Simmons is a POS.
