Especially with a dog now, I'm finding people leaving dog poop bags (or uncollected dog poop) left around on sidewalks and lawns -- yes, some people take the time to bag their dog poop and then still just leave the knotted bag on the stranger's lawn -- even more maddening.

If you have a dog, you pick up its poop and ditch it in a public garbage in a park or carry that tiny weight back to throw it out at your own place. That's Owning A Dog 101.
Can't do even that little? Then don't have a dog.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?!?!

That Stephen Jay Gould quote where he says "I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops" is obviously true but also it really hits home when you remember that Philip Glass was driving a taxi while he wrote Einstein on the Beach. What Uber driver has the spare time to write an opera today? Capitalism remains the greatest impediment to unleashing human creativity

Me: I would like to do a stand-up comedy special please. I have dozens of hilarious jokes.

Netflix: Not interested.

Me: Okay what if I give a two hour pseudo-intellectual speech about the word "woke" and we just call it stand-up?

Netflix: Deal, here is 50 million dollars.

Many yearn for the "good old days" of the web. We could have those good old days back — or something even better — and if anything, it would be easier now than it ever was.

@pandora_parrot generating excuses for us to do nothing is a BIG part of oil companies' business plans

thinking about a "league of adultier adults" like a group of self trained anarchist social workers who go around to people who lack spoons once a week/month to help you fill out all the important paperwork you're been putting off all year and take the laundry off the laundry chair and make your important phonecall for you and pet you and call you a good girl and tell you everything is going to be ok.

This perfectly captures the pacing and tone of “the NYT voice”, aka, “How do we make this comprehensible to white people who don’t know how to use Google or Wikipedia?”

When people want to name their kid after a state, they never seem to choose Pennsylvania or Rhode Island
