    I might not go so far as to say that Phish saved my life, but I will say that Phish changed the direction of my life. Seeing these last three shows at MSG (via livestream, not in person) brought me back to a time when I was a completely different person. I&#39;d only just met the lifelong friends that would form my social groups. I&#39;d hazard a guess that my closest friendships I still have came out of this era - the mid-90s. Phish is currently playing five shows at Madison Square Garden. It...

    RE: https://hachyderm.io/@datarama/116815738467957424 It&#39;s going to be more and more important in the future to put the blame where the blame lies. Jimmy Carter put solar panels on the White House in the 70s. Ronald Reagan ripped them out in the 80s. Right now, my house is drawing 4.7kW. The A/C is on. The washing machine and the dishwasher are going. I&#39;m pulling zero from the grid because of my solar panels and my battery. I know that not everyone can afford that (hell, I can&#39;t)...

    Google is, frankly, just an awful company. If you&amp;#39;re still using Chrome as your daily driver, you should probably reconsider that decision. https://www.thatprivacyguy.com/blog/chrome-silent-nano-install/

    I always watch the previous night&amp;#39;s late night monologues (except for Fallon) during my lunch, and when I saw this segment come up this morning, I knew lunch was going to be awesome. The Strike Force Five reunion. If you haven&amp;#39;t listened to the Strike Force Five podcast, I highly recommend it. Also, it is really a shitty time, but that the five really good late night comedy show hosts all love each other like this is really one of the best things about this shitty timeline. I...

    The Democratic party needs THIS kind of energy. He&amp;#39;s right about everything, but as long as we&amp;#39;ve got milquetoast leadership like Jeffries and Schumer who believe strongly-worded letters are better than actions, we&amp;#39;re going to continue to have these problems. I had such high hopes for Jeffries, and Schumer is more beholden to Israel&amp;#39;s interests than the interests of Americans and American Democrats.

    James Talarico used to be my state representative before they redrew the district, and he had to move to north Austin in order to keep a seat. He&amp;#39;s good people, and I really hope he&amp;#39;s the next Senator from Texas. Paxton should be in jail, and Cornyn should be fly fishing somewhere, retired. https://www.texastribune.org/2026/04/28/texas-us-senate-poll-talarico-cornyn-paxton-2026-midterms/

    My first email addresses on the internet were @apple.com, @io.com (if you know, you know), and @well.com ... it was only later, after Yahoo was founded, that I got a @yahoo.com address. Would never have an @hotmail.com address, and the fact that my wife still has one is a real sticking point in our relationship. Like, who are you??

    Every fucking day it&amp;#39;s another first. This is definitely a number of firsts. Ironically, it now seems that the first American Pope isn&amp;#39;t going to visit his birth country because of threats from his home country&amp;#39;s government. Absolutely wild shit. These fuckers can never be allowed to have power again, because 1) they can&amp;#39;t manage an economy, 2) they&amp;#39;re into shady shit like crypto and pedophilia (and protecting those who engage in those shady things) and...

    It&amp;#39;s absolutely wild that this kind of shit is how they waste our tax dollars. Then, they have the unmitigated audacity to tell people they can&amp;#39;t have a treat if they&amp;#39;re on food assistance. They tell us we can&amp;#39;t have free healthcare for all because it&amp;#39;s just too expensive. They tell us that Social Security is going to be insolvent soon. Fuck every one of these people and fuck us for letting them anywhere near power. &amp;quot;Per the analysis by Ope...

    Steven Spielberg is one of the greatest directors, producers, and storytellers of all time. I can&amp;#39;t think of a bomb of a movie he&amp;#39;s had a hand in (there&amp;#39;s probably one or two, I just can&amp;#39;t think of them). I&amp;#39;m so looking forward to Disclosure Day. I re-watched Close Encounters Of The Third Kind a few months back, and it still holds up nearly 50 years on. Cannot wait until June. I will be there opening night. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCYT8vb2siQ

    Me, seeing the empty paper towel holder tonight in the kitchen... I didn&amp;#39;t empty this paper towel holder of paper towels, but I did refill it. She&amp;#39;s gone to sleep already. She knows the paper towel holder was empty. She&amp;#39;ll thank me tomorrow for refilling it, but she knows what she did... I&amp;#39;m happy to have refilled it.

    Instead of a lady who plays dress up every day and has gotten so much surgery to her face that she&amp;#39;s unrecognizable to her affair partner Corey Lewandowski, we&amp;#39;re going to get an uneducated Oklahoma plumber with two first names, who dresses up as a dumbass every day. Anyone else fucking tired of this shitshow? So fucking done with these fucking clowns.

    It wasn&amp;#39;t the lewd sexual shit that got Andrew in trouble with the UK authorities - it was the alleged sharing of state secrets. Apparently, the sexual abuse of women and underage girls comes far down the list when it comes to crimes for which one might be held accountable. #epstein #UK
