  • I didn’t win the love of the mother of my child for anything I did yesterday. I did it because of what she expects tomorrow.

    The higher her expectations, the better I must be doing. I never want to give her an excuse to lower those expectations and none of them have to do with fancy gifts, expensive dates or anything like that.

    Love is grand but it is built from small devotions.

    Trying to be the man Fred Rogers said I could be was a good place to start. She found me there and we got here together. I couldn’t be happier.





  • …and the NBA is supported by the taxpayer.

    The entire business model of professional sports requires socializing the cost of infrastructure through subsidizing the transportation, location, and logistics and exempting every one of these monopoly wealth getting schemes from labor laws, antitrust, and public review.

    The NBA, NFL, MLB, etc are a scam And they need to learn how to pay their own bills.







  • See that’s just it I don’t think this picture shows that he was stupid as a kid I think it shows that he’s unwilling to grant the freedom of self-expression and self-discovery that he went through to kids today.

    It’s not his participation in this picture that is damning in any way, It’s who he is now that damns him.

    The kid in this picture was doing normal kid shit, I can’t even figure out why someone might be offended by it but I know a Republican WOULD immediately reach for their pearlsif they saw this picture thinking it was taken recently. They would call it wokeness, and attribute it to the deep state.

    It seems like JD Vance hasn't always been a creeper weirdo, and maybe at one point in his life people found him funny.

    I’ve worked in 2 different schools in the IT department and 4 others as a volunteer lecturer (I got a name tag that said Technology Evangelist) I found that putting an analog clock on the screen saver of computers in the classroom was more likely to result in the clock actually being on time.

    Too many clocks in classrooms are very old or even battery powered but neglected.

    I don’t think kids are dumb just they aren’t getting a world that is properly maintained by competent people that care about their work and are adequately resourced to do the whole job.
