I convinced an employer to hire a packaging engineer once. They justified their salary 5x over in cost savings in the first year on the job and facilitated a massive reduction in Scope 3 GHG.

They're talking about "water based" cooking now. Cooking things in water instead of oils. It's soup. They're making soup.

I was 22 when Yankee Hotel Foxtrot came out, deep in a quarterlife crisis. The part in "Poor Places" where Jeff Tweedy sang "My voice is climbing walls / Smoking and I want love" as he strings come in still his me just a hard at the age of 45. Draw your own conclusions.

Twitter-like posting sites are so stupid. Someone will post a surreptitiously-taken photo of a random woman and say "if she looks like a softball catcher, the dome is next level." And then 876 people will like the post. What the fuck are we even doing?

If you listen for it, every 1970s Beach Boys song contains a disturbing moment where the singer declares that, despite his suicidal ideation, no, he will keep going and will not take his own life today.

The Jesus and Mary Chain's "Pop Seeds" is basically Van Morrison's "Sweet Thing" turned sideways. Outstanding stuff. One of the big surprises of the JAMC autobiography from last year (great read, BTW) is that the Reid brothers are huge Van Morrison fans. www.youtube.com/watc...

Between the ages of 6 and 32, I visited Disney World 4x and never once stayed "on resort." Even today, in my mid 40s, I struggle to imagine a more sumptuously thrilling spendthrift indulgence than staying at a Disney hotel with a monorail station.

You think I'm answering an *HR-issued* personality test honestly? Motherfucker, I've been working at big companies for 25 years. I'm going to learn which personality traits the test associates with high and low job performance, find practice questions, and prepare accordingly.
