Gonna hopefully start a running thread of some of my favorite moments in climbing, since I've let the playlist pinned post rot. We'll start with Dean Potter on his smeary ascent of The Tombstone doing the greatest scream in human history. Skip to 1:20 to hear/see.

I think the best and easiest way to fight people without principles is to have principles. Scumbags and liars wither in the face of moral clarity, the only way they have a chance is if their opponents are insincere weasels themselves

Doing my best to ignore the sigh and eyeroll from the troop I reminded to put his top on when he leaves the office.
Its just so easy to create a circumstance where I don't have to say incredibly silly nitpicky shit like that.

In which regard, The Orville did in fact get into it a little bit.
You know, Star Trek did not ever go deeply enough with the violative social implications of a holodeck able to perfectly recreate real people and colleagues as mindless sex puppets. DS9 and a Barclay episode or two kind of came close, but they never did something interesting with it.

If Denver airport kicks off another renovation project to put in goddamned pullup bars, I'm going to jail forever.
Duffy on what he's doing to improve the airport experience for travelers: "Maybe I want a workout area where people might get some blood flowing doing some pull ups or step ups in the airport."

It's hard to have weathered a life of hearing conspiracy theories you know can't be true, and are provably wrong, only to live long enough where a true conspiracy occurs, out in the open, for all to see, and you feel crazier and crazier as it worsens day by day by day.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Supreme Court seems likely to expand president's power and back Trump's firing of independent-agency board members.

One of the things that catches me about the generative "AI" shit for ads and creative stuff is it bricks popular art and creativity at the moment of its inception. It puts innovation out of work and samples itself. We've decided we're at our cultural zenith as we sprint to a new nadir.

Whaddya think - apply to schools and potentially wind up on a six month timeline to get the townhouse rentable and spend my savings or get a contract gig and do that a year later with savings intact?
Bearing in mind that I'll continue dying at the same rate as every other human being in that time.

I'm not at all comfortable with how much of my adult life was subject to capture from terminal gwot brain and beret wishing.
Still pissed off that the other side of that is progressively getting fatter.

The state of my birth knows what the second amendment is for. Protecting your family from monkeys.
Forrest spent about a week on the rung while two other monkeys eluded officers at the crash site and eventually escaped. The two were later shot and killed by civilians, who said they were protecting their families and neighborhoods.

Hey @netflix.com when you get around to commissioning whatever 24k gold bribe tchotchke you're going to give Trump to bless the deal, you should do a throwback DVD and shipping sleeve.
He'll wax nostalgic and suggest you bring back the DVD business and I guarantee we'll get a "Remember Blockbuster?"

I don't take a strong interest in the affairs of Kansas City other than as the place after Limon, but this guy's bio has a banger of a line in it.
Kansas City is happy to welcome you for the World Cup. I need to practice the languages of all our visitors like Dutch, Arabic, and more, but know all are welcome. We will see you this summer in Kansas City!

This is absolutely correct. A constitution is every citizen's compact with the government, not some secret scroll that only members of a priest caste are allowed to access.
It's largely lost today because we've allowed constitutional law to become the exclusive preserve of lawyers, but the original idea of written constitutionalism was partly one of public education, publicity, & (proto-)democracy—people should be able to read & come to know the law which binds them
The evidence is the text. All you have to do is read the Constitution.
