I went the pub again. The barman said "usual?"
  • A bar is the only place I wouldn't mind them know my usual. It was a problem when the McDonald's person knew my order. I had a busy job and they were right next door...the convince was handy. But i stopped going once I realized they knew me that well.

  • Ken Burns is in your future
  • I missed the memo. I am just generally anti war and don't like reading about them. War is all because of dickhead leaders that can't act decent, treat others right, or talk things out without being little insecure manbabies. And when manchildren in power have their big boi pp insulted they make the less powerful fight for them instead of doing anything respectful. Some rebellions which lead to wars are justified. Gotta stick it back to the empowered manchildren sometimes. But it all comes down to a shitty leader.

  • Thanks for the warning I guess??
  • Oof, damn that's painful to leave behind. The downfall of yt to a completely unusable platform has been awful. Newpipe might let you play without the reminders on mobile if you are interested in trying another app before you make tye leap to a new platform. I'd bet there is a tool on github that will export your playlists too. Sorry, not trying to fix everything I promise. A 14 year active playlist is an impressive thing though and I'd hate to see that lost.

  • Greece stopped by 24-hour general strike over cost of living
  • Thanks for a level headed comment and that link. I'll read it more in depth later. I'm all for unions, I wish my particular sector of industry had more unions because we get fucked pretty hard. I'd be interested in joining if there was one for what I did. Convincing others might be difficult though because many don't see our treatment as poor for some reason. (Contast overtime, on-call, and burnout levels of work are standard practice)

  • Greece stopped by 24-hour general strike over cost of living
  • Lol now and forevermore. Can you be any more dramatic? I'm not being short sighted, I'm being realistic. And even if I am I can turn stupid sentiments like that around and say it's your inaction that prevents it. If you think it's so possible and easy and you have the know how, then get it moving. Or are you not going to do shit but bitch on the internet either? I'll sign up when you have a date and meaningful involvement and I'll happily eat my words and apologize and admit short sightedness that I thought was just a realistic take. I'm not opposed to strikes, I just think a general strike across all industries across all 50 states is so unfathomably complex as to be practically impossible. I don't think you could even get lip service to one let alone active participation. There are too many hurdles and logistic issues and not enough discomfort across all people to spur us over them on that all 50 states level.

  • Greece stopped by 24-hour general strike over cost of living
  • Dude. Any one of the European countries doing this is as small as one of our states. Even the largest ones aren't the same size and scale as our largest ones. Then each state is diverse to a suprising level and has individual groups, laws and viewpoints that affect them all differently. And that's all ignoring the politics of everything. And ignoring that Americans have zero safety nets for when they are out of work for something like a strike. Most don't have enough food or money saved to survive a strike. You are very obviously ignorant of life here, whether you live here or not. A nationwide general strike is impossible here. When I see a coordinated strike across all of europe, you might have a point. And if a general strike is decided here I will be among the first to sign up. But until then you are too ignorant of the states and their people to make any assertion as to what is possible here.

  • Sinister sucks. Fight me.
  • There's a difference between scares and startling. Most people want scares. I like both personally, but I can definitely appreciate those that really don't like being startled. It triggers some intense emotions and is a cheap trick most of the time.

  • Drinking water from a can

    Been trying to avoid plastic containers when I can. So I'm drinking canned water when I'm not near a tap and glass.

    Exciting day.

    My grandmother-in-law is taking one of my kids to get a new jacket. I'll have one less kid for an hour and a half.

    Listen to This: Sleep Token - The Love You Want (Will it Synthwave? Remix)

    I love the mashup between one of my favorite metal bands and one of my favorite synthwave bands. Works unexpectedly well.

    Listen to This: The Bad Dreamers - Who You Run To

    Fantastic vocals and great synth work, this song by The Bad Dreamers is another favorite for me.

    Listen to This: Timecop1983 - Back to You (ft. The Bad Dreamers)

    The Bad Dreamers have great vocals and Timecop1983 is always solid for Synthwave melodies. The two combined make a fantastic pairing.

    Listen to This: The Midnight - Vampires

    This is the song that got me into the genre. And if you get a chance to see The Midnight live, it's well worth it. They put on a fantastic show!

    Liste to this: FM-84

    This is my favorite album. Took me ages to get a vinyl copy but we'll worth it.
