I wonder if Ma$on knows that most of his company’s books are available for free, permanent download at a non-Torrent internet library site.

Silly me. I have at least 17 of his books in physical form.

Why is there an extra A in your username?

Patreon sent me an email with the subject line “Let’s cut the bullshit”.

I like that.

I am so incredibly glad I got to live through all of the 90’s as an adult and make the most of that decade. It’s been a total shit show on either end, but damn those were some good years in between.

I just went to take my ADK pill that I take twice a day for my bone spur, absentmindedly took a Ritalin w/o even thinking about it. Fuck fuck fuck

Isn’t Ritalin supposed to help with absentmindedness?

I’m generally a little reluctant to like a NotBruce post, but this is good.

I almost got crushed in a crowd at a Jane’s Addiction concert at the now defunct Seattle Center Arena on 12/9/1990. Primus opened for them and the tour history thing said The Pixies were there too, but I don’t remember them. Jane’s opened with Up the Beach and we all went to the pit and there was a rush and a bunch of people in front of me fell down. I got pushed onto this girl and had her pinned between my legs and was pushing back on the crowd with everything I had. It is the most pressure I’ve ever felt and the girl was screaming at me to get the fuck off of her, but I couldn’t move. We finally got out and I found my friends and the chick that came with us was crying and wouldn’t go back in. I went right back and it was a blast. I got launched into the air by this enormous dude and landed across the back of 2 guys necks right as the song ended and the crowd relaxed. I landed on my feet and disappeared into the crowd before they could straighten their necks back out give me the beating I deserved. I’ve had it happen to me and it was extremely painful. I felt bad, but they would have both punched me if I stuck around. Memorable night.

Owing to dreadful scheduling on the part of the organisers of some festival or other in the mid 90s I had nothing better to do when Shed Seven were the next band on. They started playing and were predictably terrible so I immediately wanted out. Sadly I was fairly near the front and the crush was on, so the idea of fighting through it seemed even worse than the music.

I was never a big crowd surfer but it seemed my best shot. I politely asked the person next to me, got launched and then tumbled my way to the front, where I was quickly put in a headlock by security. Some big dude half frog-marched, half-dragged me along, telling me that I was lucky I wasn’t thrown out and that, to teach me a lesson, he would not let me back to the action but make me walk along some logistical access path that lead to the food tents miles away. I was free.

That was the 90s, even if you were stupid enough to go to a Shed Seven gig it somehow worked out!

Subtle change on how market activity displays for me now on my phone. Any other iPhone users notice that At some point they stopped displaying points up or down and replaced with percentages?

Hahaha duh thanks

I (somewhat) liked that one song of theirs that everyone liked, consensus turned against them very shortly after. I heard the lead singer was arrested some time in the '00s for spray-painting ‘Shed Seven’ on a wall lolololololol probably just a rumour but it fits imo.

I’d be more likely to watch a video with that title if it were on Pornhub.

I forget if it was here or twitter that I saw someone mention the day seeming much shorter when working from home and holy shit, it sure does. Whole days just flying by here. Doesn’t seem affected by workload, either. Quiet or busy, it just whips by.
