Every time I see this opinion being shared I just imagine a tiny, angry Tim Sweeney throwing a tantrum because Valve bad. Why? Because… Because I said so, okay?!

Obviously the substance of the post is important but I did do a double take at his name, remembering that yes, this is indeed Robert Reich, former US secretary of labor, father of Sam Reich, a silly little man who makes his cast play silly little games.

I was praying there’d be Dropout fans in the replies for this one!

It will be.

You won’t be doing anything, you’ll be doing nothing. Hope this helps.

A few months ago I FINALLY organized my cluttered box of miscellaneous technology and cables into one of those plastic bin drawers with wheels. I now know what I have and can keep it all fairly organized. Found some stuff I could’ve thrown out, but this post just told me not to. So thanks!

You’re typing a lot, but you’re not saying anything.

One of my favorites. RIP Trevor Moore.

Great write up, and I’m glad you were able to recover most of your servers after this incident.

I was a Crocs hater for the longest time. Finally I needed some new shoes for doing tasks outside (gardening, etc) and on a whim got some Crocs. They’re pretty comfy and very convenient to slip on real fast to go outside.

Interesting video. I think I’ve heard of it as an apple growing up in a Christian household.

Semi related, but I enjoy the Gnostic interpretation of the Forbidden Fruit story, in which the Serpent (aka Lucifer) tempts Eve with the fruit of knowledge to achieve Gnosis, so she may learn the true meaning of their existence (the understanding that God is not their true creator). This paints Lucifer as the hero and God, or Yaldabaoth in Gnosticism, as the villain.

Oil-absorbing paper

Sometimes I’ll get so oily, I fear the United States is about to launch an invasion on me. Do you have a brand or kind you recommend? Those might benefit me.

Hello, me. Complete with the triple tap check…

Honestly, a very useful skill to learn. Thanks for the pitch!

Damn, maybe I need a pair. I have the same habit, including picking at nails. I always end up with a really shitty hangnail or bit of skin that stings.

Burt’s Bees is definitely the best!

Pretty standard stuff here.

I used to rock Cirkul 4 or 5 years ago but the last few flavors I tried tasted waaaay too artificial to me. I liked it pretty good until that point.

Who knew EDC could be so… Aesthetic! Thanks for sharing that link too, probably should have looked for that community before posting. But I like giving people a chance to talk about themselves a little. :)

I see we have an EDC enthusiast in the house ;)

You reminded me that I’ve been needing to do up a car-trunk-kit, and this has given me some good ideas to boot. Thanks for sharing!
