Sunday Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
The advent of social credit scores could be the end of running bar tabs in the US. No more ordering of shots for friends ether. The government would need to know who those friends are first and the bar owner could be punished if one of those friends tried to drive. You'd think the service industry would be mainly against this especially as you see so many "cash only" signs popping up everywhere.. . Woke elites control the institutions meant to serve us. Which means we need to shut these down and start from scratch - hopefully in a new location. Like moving the FBI to Salt Lake City... Russian Sushi would be a good name for an Eastern European cover band of Western pop songs… Some date the end of the old MCU and birth of the new to the introduction of the multiverse. This could be viewed as the beginning of the new MCU phase beginning with Loki season one. Think this would be born out by both the official MCU corporate narrative and by a graph of MCU viewership which would have peaked around the end of the last phase. Others would blame the decline in viewership on Disney going straights out woke in the new phase. There's a lot to this theory as well as there's no way the new woke MCU introduces a straight out playboy like young Tony Stark these days... So on August 12th this year I had my first few Pumpkin Spice beers. Getting earlier and earlier each year. The Sand Dollar in York Beach, Maine had their Sam Summer keg kick and replaced it with Pumpkin. Love Pumpkin Spice but this used to be reserved for October... The movie Escape from New York came out in 1981 which means its been old enough to drink for 3-years… A tourist trap is something built locally to lure in the tourists who have no choice but to endure it once they enter the web. A theme park is basically a tourist trap that uses kids as bait... Nebraska would be a good name for a Kansas cover band... Some are shocked by the death of Robbie Robertson from The Band but he was 80-years old. I'm more surprised that Martin Scorsese (also 80) is still alive and making movies. If Yahoo! Serious passes away - then I'll be shocked... Said it before but one of my life goals is to live longer than Charles Bukowski who passed at 75-years of age... The Mesopotamia of Lies would be a good name for a blog or Substack account about DC politics...
