I feel like song has more life in it now than it did when it came out. I seem to hear it everywhere and in all sorts of TV shows.

I think we all know that the dance RFK would perform is the worm.

Welcome!

Yeah, that Rancid album's amazing.

As with any genre or subgenre blowing up, I think it's a double-edged sword (see "Nevermind" just a few years earlier), but there's always enough new stuff bubbling up that I can ignore the copies-of-copies.

Welcome!

But Siggy, the banks are Too Big To Fail, so we have to give them every advantage possible!

(/s if if really needs saying)

I've found TBC a bit slower -- it took almost half an hour for my purchase with them this week to go through -- but otherwise, I prefer them for the reasons you state. That said, sometimes only Bitrefill actually has the cards I'm looking for.

Annual physical today. Meaning no breakfast until way later than I'd like.

Random aside -- when Francis Ford Coppola released "Bram Stoker's Dracula," the novel tie in was not actually "Dracula" as written by Bram Stoker. Instead, they had Fred Saberhagen novelize "Bram Stoker's Dracula." So I'm not sure that movie actually got people to the right book.

Yeah, Cobb was a mean SOB -- by all accounts one of the least likable to play the game.

As far as razors go, it feels like that or some variation (Joe Niekro with his famous emery board) comes up every few years.

God, my favorites change constantly, but Hamlet, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Richard III, Antony and Cleopatra, Twelfth Night, and Much Ado About Nothing all strike me as good entry points.

But also, reading Shakespeare is great, but watching it is even better. If there are local performances, try to see some. Twelfth Night is one of the ones I think gets performed the most around here, and is a great first Shakespeare for a lot of folks. The Kenneth Branagh films of Henry V and Much Ado About Nothing are also a blast (and the contemporary Joss Whedon take on Much Ado is surprisingly fun, too).

Then start enjoying how the plays get interpreted and reinterpreted. There are modern takes, sci-fi ones (Forbidden Planet is a twist on The Tempest), etc. There's a fantastically funny tv show called Slings and Arrows about a theatre company in Canada, with the seasons devoted to productions of Hamlet, Macbeth, and Lear, that I just love (but it works best once you know the shows).

Welcome!

From a legal POV? Yes. Otherwise, you need the politicians to craft a law that distinguishes the two. Sure, you could have proof of work and decentralized inserted into the definition, but even there you won't eliminate all the coins out there. And the law could give a shit about being first or the network effect or any of that.

And whatever you think about shitcoins, if you're opposed to government interference and support free speech, that means in all cases, not just for things you like. Otherwise, those aren't principals, just word.

As a Mets fan, I also remember 1986 and Mike "I’ve thrown balls that were scuffed but I haven’t scuffed every ball that I’ve thrown" Scott winning the Cy Young and NLCS MVP. So I just assume it's an "every generation" thing. :-)

(But yeah, I don't doubt cheating happens in a lot of organizations -- there were plenty of corked bat and scuffed ball scandals over the years. It's just that it really does seem to be something that hits the 'Stros again and again.)

Man, I wonder if those corporations and ETFs list "Coinbase might rug" as a risk when they release their quarterly reports.

Such a shock -- who'd ever have suspected the Astros of cheating?

Yup! The original is by the great Bill Withers:

Look at the link -- he's noting that @Alby commented suggesting that a non-custodial option (without linking to another wallet) is coming to Alby.

Been on an '80s metal kick recently, and Cinderella was always fun to listen to.

Twitter won't let people read threads if they're not logged in. One of Musk's many fun changes.
