Saw “Bridge City" and then read your description of them and thought, “I’m willing to bet they’re from Portland.” Checked out their web page and yup, of course they are! Dammit, I love Portland!

I also liked this:

“We have people who have been run over by trauma, by substance abuse, by all of these things,” LeBrun told Macleans. “It’s about excavating that person, buried under their circumstances, little by little.”

Seems like a decent dude.

They Live (1988).

It’s rad!

It is infuriating to me how often people start explaining the rules without explaining what the actual goals are first. Like, what are we even doing here, start with that, m’kay?

Same! Even though I'm not excited about this timeframe in the Trek universe, I just became exponentially more excited knowing she's involved.

It reminded me, very randomly, of quote from a book about urban design and how architectural ideas are introduced and accepted by the public… or not.

From this the "principle of the second man" can be formulated: it is the second man who determines whether the creation of the first man will be carried forward or destroyed...

It was a golden chance and a room full of cowards let it slip.


The book is Design of Cities by Edmund Bacon for anyone interested.

‘Fanta Menace’!!! I’m in fucking tears, how have I never heard this before!? 🤣🤣🤣

Same here! This morning’s hangover, as just one example, 100% attributable to Covid! Definitely not the decision to have highballs #5-8 last night.

Seed Vault got some serious Silo series vibes.

Trigger discipline is perfect if she’s about to take the kill shot. 😎

“Like throwing babies into shark tank,” has immediately entered my personal daily lexicon.
