istr there was also a case a while back where a pair of neo-nazis who had named their kid adolf hitler wanted wal-mart to make them a cake that read "happy birthday adolf hitler" but wal-mart refused so they brought a lawsuit. not sure how that one turned out but maybe look into that one too

good someone has to make a stand on the ridiculously short cake character counts these days

If you're considering spending YOSPOS money on a desk, just get a carpenter to do you one just the way you like it. Then ask them to build you a desk.

us legal precedent is pretty clear that free speech rights include the right to refuse to speak. that definitely includes putting messages on poo poo. masterpiece was actually distinguished at a lower level from a prior case where a cake shop refused to put some homophobic bible verse on a cake; that was ruled to be okay as long as it's just about the content of the message, not the person ordering the cake

what masterpiece is really about is whether something as routine as making a cake, divorced of any sort of custom design or custom message, becomes sufficiently expressive to count as speech when you know the cake will be used to celebrate something you disagree with. of course saying "yes" puts a pretty bug hole in anti-discrimination law

i'd buy a chinese electric scooter if they weren't absolute poo poo. electricity is cheap and it would be great for buzzing down to the supermarket where food is cheaper and bread is actually fresh. (i don't own a car that is)

every "I bought a chinese electric scooter" story i've heard is pretty much as follows:

a guy i used to work with used to ride something like that as his primary mode of transportation. it looked like a little 1:2 scale chopper and plugged into the wall to charge.

it was even more interesting because this guy was like 7 feet tall and looked like lurch from the addams family if lurch had weird facial hair and a ponytail. he eventually got fired for “painting” on the bathroom walls.


his medium was poop, you see.

I was a huge car guy when I was in my teens and twenties. As you get older, you grow as a human being and find new interests.

Speaking of spite for modernity, like over half of the ads during the Super Bowl were weird nostalgia poo poo. This country really has given up on the future and is firmly lodging it's head up the rear end of a biased view of the good old days. The ad with Stephen Tyler in particular was a creepy bit of Boomer wankery.

i used to really be into cars and motorcycles too. now i think about how much space that kind of stuff takes up and also how dangerous it can be and just kind of go "meh, no thanks".

now i take pictures. my wife is much happier with me having that for a hobby.
