Reading up on MS Recall. “It can’t be that bad.” … “Oh my god it is SO MUCH WORSE.” If this ever becomes standard I am dumping Windows at home. Again.

I wish I could record what the sound of very distant cicadas sounds like because it's really eerie -- it sounds higher pitched and...slightly echo-ey? It's very "war of the worlds" sounding.

How weird does the US get on armed service holidays? An example of what a fried chicken sandwich fast foot chain does each Memorial Day. The framed text reads:

"The table is round- to show our everlasting concern. The tablecloth is white- symbolizing the purity of their motives when answering the call to serve. The single rose- reminds us of the lives of these Americans…and the loved ones and friends who keep the faith, waiting for answers. The yellow ribbon- symbolizes our continued uncertainty, hope for their return and determination to account for them. A slice of lemon- reminds us of their bitter fate, captured or missing in a foreign land. A pinch of salt- symbolizes the tears of our missing and their families. The flickering candle- reflects our hope for their return. The bound text- is a book of faith to represent the strength gained through devotion to sustain those lost from our country. The glass is inverted- to symbolize their inability to share a toast. The chair is empty- they are missing."

“There are no ethical billionaires.” There are also no ethical successful companies in this capitalist system - it is a requirement that businesses break the law and cause damage to workers and consumers in order to be successful under this model. Any company doing well is stealing from people, causing irreparable harm to the environment, and/or taking illegal actions against other corporations.

"It is, indeed, marvelous. An irony-free zone where everything is beautiful and nothing hurts. Where everybody regardless of race, creed, color, or inebriation is welcomed. Its warm, yellow glow a beacon of hope and salvation inviting the hungry, the lost, the seriously hammered all across the south to come inside. A place of safety and nourishment. It never closes. It is always, always faithful. Always there, for you."

I'm still tickled this was a thing at #fwa
