“Any time you identify by what you are not, for myself, when you determine your politics and rights based on what you are not, I think you’re not on the road to empowerment. I think you’re on the road to systematically, mindfully marginalizing yourself.”

“All of those people are called ‘Semites’ because they all share a common language group, and then ‘anti-semite’ only became more of a targeted reference to Jews in the 19th century during…the mid-1800’s when the Germans were really, really struggling to integrate the Jews into their culture. They decided not to. Spoiler alert.”

““You have to understand, to begin with, that I love Rickey Henderson. Had I been running the A’s, my first priority would have been to do everything I could to see that Rickey Henderson would die in an Oakland uniform. My second priority would have been to see that he lived as long as possible.””

Take a trip inside the magical world of….The Book of Clocks. This guide sits in the control rooms at WNYC and has the standard “clocks” for each show. How long the segments are, where the breaks come, when the network hands off to the local affiliate, etc… Without this, we’d be flying blind. Also makes for great bedtime reading.

I recent had an interview to write copy for a website…

Client: So you’re a writer then?

Me: I am indeed

Client: And you will write original text for my site?

Me: Of course

Client: Good. The last guy seemed on the level, but then I read on his resume that he was a copywriter, and I don’t want anything on my site that has been copied.

A client of the company I work for got tired of paying for our design services, so they hired their own designers. According to their company’s rep, these two designers were “amazingly talented” and had “years of experience” that would help them do the job faster - and better - than I had…

“

The top 8 was just a Gatecrash draft with the following payout:

1: one each of From the Vaults sets (probably like $500+ if you ebay that shit?) 2: 24 packs 3-4: 12 packs 5-8: 6 packs

which felt kinda like:

1: Cadillac Eldorado 2: set of steak knives 3: you’re fired

Interplanetary Cessna:

Unfortunately, X-Plane is not capable of simulating the hellish environment near the surface of Venus. But physics calculations give us an idea of what flight there would be like. The upshot is: Your plane would fly pretty well, except it would be on fire the whole time, and then it would stop flying, and then stop being a plane.
