2022 LC Thread—New Year, New Thread

I’m sitting at a bar and a woman is babbling about Maricopa County decertifying some election.

“Didn’t you watch last night?”

No, I didn’t. And I have no fucking clue what she’s talking about. Anyone in the know have an idea? I googled Maricopa County news and think I got one hit that might have explained but it was paywalled.

To be clear it’s not something I’m concerned about I’m just curious.

It’s going to be sad watching things breakdown and just stay broken down.

Hmm, didn’t watch Narcos, eh?

That’s like 90% of The Discourse. For some it’s trans people, for others it’s eDems.

Cut my covid hair back to normal length today. I didn’t really like it anymore but now I have regrets. I have a beard and was getting lots of Jesus comments lately

my big idea to make the world a better place:

any app on your phone that involves two-way audio communication (e.g. the phone, facetime, zoom etc) should only get access to the speakerphone as an in-app purchase, $0.99 PER USE. It’s a pigovian tax.

Smell ya later

Wonder what his sentence would’ve been if he was still signed to a record company and making them millions.

Three countries have a higher opinion than the US does of itself.
