This was a movie that I'd seen one day and promptly forgot the name of it. I tried in vain to find out years later. I asked my mom and she had no idea what I was talking about. I asked everyone and no one even knew. I was convinced it was a fever dream or something.

Until I heard Tech N9ne's Everybody Move and he said "Falling Down like Michael Douglas" and it was a core memory unlocked and I finally got to watch it again.

It was every bit as good as I remember.

Is that why I see all those "I have too many ThinkPads, I just bought three more." Posts, or is that just what part of the Internet I'm hanging out in?

A lot of prior military folks will use males and females just because that's how it's been drilled into them. Male and female latrines, not men and women's bathrooms. Male and female barracks, not men and women's dorms. Male and female standards, etc etc.

I have shorts, made by a company Pistol Lake that's unfortunately no longer in business, that has a phone pocket inside the pocket with a snap closure.

Now, one, it perfectly fits my G100 and, two, the rest of the pocket is gigantic. Like, full size Nintendo Switch in there with wiggle room but my phone doesn't move.

So, this may be silly but, see a tailor about adding a pocket if your clothes are baggy enough for it.

The Zero Suit is looking pretty baggy in this picture for some reason.

I won't lie, seeing an Aldi worker can now potentially make more than me does sting but, not because the Aldi worker doesn't deserve money, because I do have a more valuable position in my company than a cashier does at Aldi and with that in mind I see how much my company under values me.

Does that make sense? The mechanics hear how much education and skill they need from Boeing and then hear that's the market rate for... a fast food worker. Arguably, a fast food worker needs more interpersonal skills than a mechanic and has to constantly be the face of the business but for Boeing to land fat government contacts and then say they value their mechanics as much as Panda Express does it's line cooks, well, it hurts.

Plus, he had "concept of a plan" in his front pocket. He had that think ready. If nothing else, his debate prep got that in his head.

I've watched that movie too many times. I was about to comment "The line is supposed to be 'Tommy' since he's talking to Tommy, The Tit"... Oh wait, it says Donny because Trump... Yeah.

It says there's a single speed and a ten speed variant.

Every American has to do one season of farm work but all food is now free. Monkey's paw curls and all that.

Farmers can't just have free labor and still get all the profits.

I mean, yeah. People can be fat, skinny, tall, short, all that stuff but to be a billionaire you've got to willingly horde the wealth of people who you think are lesser than yourself, so fuck them.

I mean, not to say she looks bad but she's certainly not my type. I can't tell whether it's makeup, surgery, smoothing filters or 'yes' but she's got a specific look that just doesn't do it for me.

I know, I know, everyone says "I like blah blah blah" and it doesn't matter but I can certainly see why people aren't digging it.

Like, she could totally be an amazing person and if she likes the way she looks, good for her, so my opinion literally doesn't matter. Whether my standards are too high or my self esteem too low, it doesn't matter at all.
