It always pleasures me to see governments being forced (likely by budget concerns) to walk back from meaningless expenditures at my tax expenses

Maybe that’s why CNN will be live streaming in Austin this year. 🤔

I tuned in to CNN's News Years Eve broadcast live from NYC a couple years ago and was disgusted by how corporatist it had become (maybe it always was and I didn't notice?)

Even all the celebrators' hats had corporate logos on them, which they clearly handed out to everyone there. All the security fences were draped in corporate logos like a European soccer player.

Ugh that’s a bummer to hear last year at the same place was an awesome free concert.

This year looks very 😑

Don't worry, they'll find something much worse to do with your money

Hope this kickstarts a mindful and meditative approach to ushering in the new year. Not everything needs to be noise and pomp all the time
