He/Him. Generic geek with dork tendencies.
Insatiable though slow reader.
Cycling and F1 fan.
Love Will Tear Us Apart is the greatest song of all time.
Alice in Chains is my absolute favorite band (Layne was taken too soon).
Wanna be foodie that hates tomatoes.
Liberal AF.
Think it's always the right time to punch a Nazi.
Was an expat for a few years. Need to check that out again as its getting pretty crazy here. That said, Chicago is pretty chill
Got the permits. Now just need to do the work.
So SuperPacs have dropped over $1.3m to protect Diana DeGette in Denver. We lived in Denver when she was first elected: 29 years ago. I get wanting to hold on to power but Jesus these old as fuck Dems need to retire and let new blood in.
To that end, Melat Kiros seems interesting. I know fuck all about the race but again, youth anyone?
For some reason I have the TV on to Trump during his G7 news conference. A couple of thoughts:
Still amazing the right thinks Biden was non compos mentis but don't see a problem with trump. Truly cult like behavior (I mean, we've known this for a decade but still need to point it out now and then).
Second is I love, absolutely love, watching Rubio slowly die inside standing behind Trump. Could not happen to a better guy (and by better I mean fuck that guy).
Third. Please lord, let me off this timeline (and I'm an atheist).
Sorry to interrupt your morning. I'm going to sit on the deck and enjoy the rain for a bit.
Going full #getoffmylawn #oldguy for a second if I can. I see the value of delivery services in the city - dinner, groceries, whatever. My issue is why the eff so the drivers need to just beach their cars in the middle of the road. Seriously - there is a parking space right there on the left and a hydrant on the right. Just pull in slightly and let traffic past.
Rant off. Sorry.
I have it quite well all things considered. Job, insurance, transportation, family, ability to make phone calls, etc.
The BS I am going thru to get my finger examined (great plainer incident of 2026) is ridiculous. Urgent care was fine but actually getting an ortho doc to look at it, anything but.
No availability for weeks, out of network docs, you name it. Every time I meet someone who says ObamaCare went too far I want to punch them in the dick.
Lived in Australia for a few years and yeah, socialized medicine is horrible. No waits, easy access, $7 bills for the emergency room. Horrible.
We really do get the coverage we deserve. Can't wait to leave this country again. Permanently this time.
Rant over. Thank you for attending my Ted talk.
For some reason MSNBC had Piers Morgan on Morning Joe (let's not discuss me watching Morning Joe...).
Anyway, while trying to sound mainstream he comes across as a massive galaxy sized wanker. What a fucking hole. I get the hate for him.
My grandpa lived to 96. Until about 94 or so he was incredibly mentally acute. Just rock solid. Then it started slipping and the last months he'd just start rambling about whatever came to mind.
Trump in this speech to the military leaders sounds the same or perhaps even worse. Guy is way far down this path.
The big difference? My grandpa was a farmer in Wyoming. This guy is the president...
Regardless of any political views this Robinson shit has, the official messaging from the powers that be will be he was a radical liberal.
They are getting out in front of him being a Nazi.
