I was “hardcore” while a CS undergrad years back. It was neither professional or sustainable and the quality of my output absolutely sucked in the grand scheme of things. This is purely exploitive and about cheaper labor (on a relative scale) and control of talent earlier in their career.

I’m glad you represent me. Thanks for speaking the truth about what is happening right now.

True true. And despite all the bangers on the album, we laugh at danger is probably the one that still hits me the most, funny enough. Music is weird. Keep doing it.

Right and left aren’t very useful labels at the moment in America but I think it’s the breaking point for the legacy right.
I still expect shooting protesters to be the first breaking point (for the legacy left).

Playing ball in my mind is avoiding, delaying, or stopping a government shutdown. I agree, they have very little actual power here.

Tariffs are a bargaining chip for a regressive flat tax and drastically reduced federal spending in the rapidly upcoming budget standoff. He’s showing that they are doing it anyway, congress (i.e. Dems) should play ball or it will be much worse.
The elite support the end goal. No fantasy needed.

Awesome to hear! Heading up to Athens on Sunday and unplugging from all the nonsense for a bit.

I always planned to leave after the election (and had deleted the app already) but was using it to keep an eye on their fuckery during the election. Elon was pretty blatant about it.
Now, their fuckery IS the government, no need to keep an eye on anything over there.

Take a breather and take care of yourself. Saw you at Riot Fest and it was the highlight of the weekend for me. You have to balance that energy with recovery though. We’re getting old, lol

Fortunately, incompetence got the best of them and we made it through. I hope for the same again.
