It was hilarious to listen to Kinzinger yuk it up over voting to repeal Obama care, and leading the tea party towards magaville .
God damn it, this is the third try at this. It is true that the jobs we are currently interviewing candidates for have changed since we last interviewed for them. I can almost hear the whining now: "President (candidate we managed to get elected against all odds) is betraying my interests and is just as bad as that soft taco guy."
We have a lot on our plates just now, and I don't see any expectations adjustment programs happening any time soon.
I am unsurprised at the allegations of drug use by Elon Musk (or Fergus, for that matter).
My brother was a biker, and I have spent most of my life around heavy drug users (I can't blame that all on my brother, but his being ten years older than me brought it around sooner than it otherwise would have arrived).
I quit using drugs when I moved to Oakland for various reasons that made a lot of sense at the time, and I remember how obvious to me it was which of my new coworkers were using the drugs that I was foregoing at the time. Which made me think of a story my mother told me while we were having a conversation about drugs and my brother when I was a teenager: "Oh yeah, he was using hard drugs. I even know where he was getting them. Maybe I should tell you about a game the other secretary at the law office and I used to play: when a new client would come in, we would write on a post-it note what drugs we thought they were on. We stopped playing that game after a few months because neither of us had been wrong even once."
Exper fucking tise.
Thank you again for the podcast. Should you find yourself in need of a mood lift, let me recommend any of the videos from Henry Rollins' show Keep Talking Pal. The one about meeting David Bowie seems right up your alley and all of them are reminders of how political the Punk Rock scene was.
