@ajroach42 my favorite tidbit about the show...many of the directors used on it and the preceding shorts were music video directors. They were chosen because they knew how to maximize the storytelling-to-budget efficiency. The saturated look and dense frame are the handiwork of people who made They Might Be Giants and REM videos.

@itgrrl @ajroach42 well, count me in on that

@antoinevg that is *definitely* me.

@elaterite I keep two bags of stickers in my purse. What of it?

@jalefkowit I'm going with James Carville, because of course.

In truth, I think the idea is vacuously true. It's not a rejection of Trump. It's a rejection of what he and his lot have caused.

Friends, when I went to vote for Public Service Commissioner in Georgia today, my tiny little precinct's polling room had a wait. I will repeat that. On a ballot with 2 votes and everyone knowing who'll they'll vote for before they walk in, there was *still* a short wait. And some folks got in trouble for taking selfies inside...they were sharing on social media.

That is what getting out the vote to turn an election looks like. Well done, y'all. Well done.

@MissingThePt aren't you supposed to be *missing* the point?

@gosha you had me at "BeOS"

@ryan Wait...what happened to Shout Factory?

@JEmphatically Simpsons did it. Simpsons did it.

@kayeluvian The extremely weird part is that it actually is his theme song.

Some citizens have been caught hoarding credits.
This is treasonous Communist behavior.

True happiness comes from trusting in Friend Computer's benevolent distribution of all resources.

@djsundog I absolutely loathe FexEx. They routinely lose/destroy packages at the docks. They sometimes throw my package in the yard next to the electrical pole. They've damaged my yard twice by getting trucks stuck in the mud when I gave them explicit instructions on how to prevent that from happening. Worst, they damaged my driveway and then their claims adjuster found bullshit reasons to not pay for it.

@Computer Friend Computer, what is capital and how could a Citizen hoard it? I wish to ensure the occasional pile I see in the barracks is not capital.

Snap didn't run out during previous shutdowns, just like it didn't run out this time.

Trump / Republicans are refusing to spend money they were told to by law. They're doing this to hold 1/8 of the country's food hostage, in order to force Democrats to sign off on Republicans stealing your health care.

They're breaking the law to steal funds from hungry kids and give them to their corrupt buddies/ thugs who will crack down on hungry people if they riot for the food they're legally entitled to

@rbanffy This is an interesting tale, but I'm curious how he knows it's the real story? I have lots of questions about it. If it's true and Amazon is trying to dump capital into GPU purchases for AWS, and demand for it is so provably high, then surely it's a no-brainer to get lines of credit for the GPU purchases.

@econproph @androcat @ana Oh word? I'll have some reading to do.

@dixon Absolutely. One rainstorm and we're just now doing wet-and-biting season from here on out I guess.

@androcat @ana

One of the few times I've unreservedly agreed with the guy...

"Game theory stinks." --Steven Levitt

@ana I'm glad I didn't have those profs! Because, like I said, the way I'd learned the parable was as one that shows systems are at the core of keeping a commons. It was, actually, kinda a rebuke of neoliberalism the way it was taught to me.
