Aaron Rodgers reached villain status a while back (I mean, he is a Green Bay quarterback, and there's only one way it ends), but this is particularly on-brand.

Aaron Rodgers secretly funded his town's Flock-style cameras

The QB used an LLC to shield his identity.

“I do not like seriousness. I think it is irreligious. Or, if you prefer the phrase, it is the fashion of all false religions. The man who takes everything seriously is the man who makes an idol of everything: he bows down to wood and stone until his limbs are as rooted as the roots of the tree or his head as fallen as the stone sunken by the roadside.” -G.K. Chesterton, "On Seriousness"

And our poor EMS people, who don't make enough money for what they do: Breathing Difficulties go up, utilities complaints, bogus fire alarms. We even had a tree go through a structure in my area this week. Summer in the Midwest can go hang.

Day 2 of crazy storms messing things up and making people miserable. My intense dislike for summer deepens.

Nostr Only. GN all.

26 years ago, I was about a foot away from Billy Corgan as he played this song at the Canopy Club in Champaign, Illinois. A tiny venue when they could have filled stadiums, still at their height. Still the best concert I've ever witnessed. GN all.

GM all. Day off laziness. Apparently, terrible storms ripped through my area last night. Slept like a baby.

It's true. GN all.

Speaking of the AI IPOs... it's always been about rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Always.

Valuation is down 33% in the last month. That's how they do it, frens. It'll be even more brutal for AI IPOs.

Probably my favorite song of theirs after the week-long deep dive in to their catalogue, I love how delightfully weird the aesthetic of this video is, with the guy in a white dog suit crawling around in the snow.

Things are looking up. Goodnight, all.

Today was a day, and tomorrow? Not guaranteed, but likely another. GN all.

Your song by The Cure for today. I love this weird little band.

Looking forward to the graces of a new day. In the meantime, though, GN and enjoy this Alien-Egypt mashup.

Been all The Cure since then. Good stuff. View quoted note →

The algo gets it.

Led trivia until the final question tonight; something to do with 2024 containing two billboard hits containing the dead celebrity Houdini. Don't ask me. GN all.
