I was literally just at Jake's on Friday for multiple hours before and after I saw You Were Never Really Here at Century. I feel scummy.

L&L is part of the Malort triangle (L&L, Nisei, Gmans) of bars you can go in Wrigleyville that won't have cubs fans 9 out of 10 times.

I was thinking while taking the clark bus yesterday that there is no way that like john barleycorn and does tavern will stay open with all of that new construction. They had basically just become diamond and dueces overflow bars anyway and now with all the brand new fancy douchey stuff people have more options to drink $11 coors lights

Hatred is not a mental illness. That rarely gets mentioned in the wake of these massacres.

Christ, the Waffle House shooter went to the same elementary/middle school that I did. He’s quite a bit older than me but it’s still super unsettling.

This is the best thing to come out of incel "culture" though.

Some are funny, but man, I can't wait till the day we stop promoting the "Chads" as the (toxic masculinity/alpha male) model to emulate.

I was recently at a meeting during which the topic of how to make women more confident at work (notably when it comes to speaking during meetings, daring to apply for a job that is a stretch, etc.)
I pointed out that the problem might not be so much that many women lack confidence, but that some men have too much of it -- for instance controlling the discussion/winning the argument simply by speaking loud, with confidence, even if actually wrong!

Apropos of nothing, I just remembered how bad the "lifestyle determines my death style" line is "Frantic".
I think that was the first lyric I ever heard that I immediately understood to be bad.

Saw this news earlier and bought McNamara's book - had been meaning to earlier, but this kind of forced the issue. Really happy to hear they got this guy.

I will listen to this podcast this afternoon tho

T-Mobile and Sprint finally agreed to a massive telecom merger after years of negotiations punctuated by two breakups.
The agreement would leave just three major wireless carriers in the United States and must clear antitrust regulators. The combined company, which will take on the name T-Mobile, would be positioned as a fierce competitor to Verizon and AT&T.
T-Mobile CEO John Legere, who will head the merged company, said on a conference call Sunday that the firm plans to deliver "the highest capacity network in US history."
He said the company will hire thousands of people in a bid to create a nationwide network that will position the United States as the leader in providing 5G connectivity.
A recent report from research firm Analysys Mason suggests it's China and South Korea, not the United States, that are currently leading 5G development.
pretty interesting development for my particular line of work.

I am casually looking at apartments and omg the housing stock is 99% so generic and boring. Everything is an open concept kitchen/ living room with a long hallway and a balcony off the master which is seriously the stupidest fucking thing, I blame it on male architects
