The Obligatory Pinned Tweet I'm on X mostly to vent about life & politics stuff, particularly from my libertarian world view. And some comedy/magic stuff, too.

I flew @AirCanada this weekend. I received the typical "tell us about your flight survey" email. Because I wanted to give a shout out to the rep that helped recover my lost bag, I did it. Now here's the annoying part. It was long and several pages weren't worth my time to do. I wanted to praise an employee, not spend 10 minutes doing customer research for Air Canada. When I tried to skip a page, the screen responded with "This page is required." No. Not one part of this is required. Not. One. I volunteered to do it. Air Canada, give the lost bag person at Saint John a raise from the money you make firing the guy that designed the survey.

@AirCanada lost my luggage yesterday. I still don’t have it. The bag has an Apple air tag in it. The bag hasn’t moved. So not only don’t I have a bag, I also don’t have faith in Air Canada.

“It is safer for a great man to rob a country, than for a poor man to steal a loaf” Thomas Gordon knew that game was rigged. If you have power, you get away with all kinds of crimes far more often than if you don't.

If Winston Smith and Peter Griffin had a kid, they’d have a HomeView.
This is the worst thing I have ever seen.

Angela’s energy supplement routine might be healthier than mine, but this works for me: ✔️Caffeine ✔️Knowing if I don’t get the stuff done it won’t get done ✔️Eggs ✔️Ogling the Mrs. ✔️Barbells 3 x a week ✔️Spite
My energy supplement routine: Rho Liposomal NAD+ Rho Liposomal Creatine Shilajit Prenatal vitamins Single shot espresso with raw milk, manuka honey and collagen peptides, twice daily Occasionally: liposomal glutathione, B12 shot

Good essay from @JustinWolfers: "My Libertarian Friends Were Right" "My libertarian-leaning friends have consistently argued against a powerful federal government in favor of individual freedoms. I had — somewhat naively — never taken their views seriously enough. My friends who worked in government were good people, I reasoned, and surely that’s true more broadly. "But I’ve had to admit to my libertarian friends that they were right. Concentration of power can be abused. We’re seeing it happen right now."

The toughest part of having Foreign Language Syndrome is when you have it, an hour later you want to have it again.
The strange case of Sarah Colwill, the woman who suffered a stroke and later developed Foreign Language Syndrome, a rare condition with no clear cause. When she woke up, her local Plymouth accent had disappeared, leaving her with a Chinese accent.

The reason they call them “red eye flights” is “sucks to be six foot three and stuck for five hours in a seat built for Billy Barty next to some guy that thinks flip flops are appropriate plane footwear” is too wordy.

This needs to be an audiobook with Martin Short voicing Bette Davis.
I do not regret reading this Bette Davis biography So far she burned her face off as a kid; her husband fell down the stairs and then died a couple weeks later; her adopted daughter turned out to be mentally handicapped so she institutionalized her then there's this fight:

The absolute GOAT. Gone five years ago today.
At times, the joy that life attacks me with is unbearable and leads to gasping hysterical laughter. I find myself completely out of control and wonder how could life could surprise me again and again and again, so completely. How could a man be a cynic? It is a sin.
