I had to go through the Atlanta airport shortly after the “4 hour wait” stories started hitting. I showed up 3 hours earlier than normal to be safe, and when I got there they had every station manned and ICE was basically just waiving everyone through. Took me about 2 minutes to get through security.

Kind of illustrates how pointless TSA is in the first place, but I’d rather have had that four hour wait than have to be within 50 ft of ICE.

Batman TAS is unbelievably good. Gets a little better every time I rewatch it.

Once I was in the bathroom of this upscale theater following a Shakespeare play, when a very sharply dressed older man who exuded an aura of intelligence came in and approached a urinal. He dropped his pants and underwear all the way to the floor, raised his shirts with both of his hands and held them above his exposed nipples, then pushed his hips as far as he could into the urinal to piss hands-free. The incongruity of what I was seeing left me stunned, and made me forget to pee until he had completely left the bathroom.

I’ve tried planting the seed a few times with people who voluntarily wiretap their own house with an Alexa. Each time they’ve picked it up and ran further with it, like “Oh I know! If I mention seat belt covers, suddenly amazon is recommending a bunch of seat belt covers in my home page!” No thoughts at all of doing anything with this conclusion.

I’ve also witnessed planting the seed working in plenty of other scenarios, just thought this particular fumble was common and particularly funny.

I’ve been having that classic moment for the last 3 months since switching at home:

“Can you hear that?”

“What?”

“Silence.”

I just realized I’ve become that guy six months into switching from Windows. I want to save even one person, but I’m probably just annoying people atm.
