I went to a Kacey Musgraves (hippie espresso drinker country music) show down in ABQ and they were working the LEDs and lasers HARD. She's also totally a huge stoner and knows her crowd. But yeah, light shows are pretty amazeballs anymore.

My wife's a big fan. It's not the kind of music I listen to on the reg, but I still think she's great. Merry Go Round in particular is a perfectly unflinching narrative of growing up in rural America. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZfj2Ir3GgQ It's nice to have someone in country music cutting through the bullshit mythology that country music tries to build up.

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:That is an immense cut in financial support in a relatively short period of time. In 2011 there was actually a Republican budget proposal to literally cut funding in half for PSU. I'm not sure where it ended up exactly but news reports for the time said the final number was still devastating. They've been trying to systematically dismantle the higher ed system. (Meanwhile allowing shale natural gas extraction to come in and rape the land and pay 0 excise tax for profits that end up in Texas. But public universities are too much a burden on state tax revenue.) loving Pennsyltucky.

PIZZA.BAT posted:when they were first working on this a reporter came to campus and was asking students their thoughts on this stuff. i told him that they'd probably "compromise" by only slashing a third of the budget and a decade from now everyone would be wondering why higher education was so expensive and our economy was in the gutter because everyone is insane debt.

The best part of growing up in the Midwest with family that lives a very Midwest lifestyle is that there is no way to expand their horizons whatsoever. They can travel outside of the Midwest and will just reproduce their Midwest life no matter what other options are available. My parents would drive 8 hours to visit and still insist on hitting the local goodwill and bargain outlet stores and eating at Cracker Barrel and spending the whole time watching the same TV they watch at home.

Salt Fish posted:I'll make you deal. I'll admit glenn is sometimes right even though it annoys me if you admit that russian influence over trump is too real to be 'the lefts version of qanon'  Also re the Russian influence campaign, I don't think it can be argued it didn't happen. The effect it had can be debated. But I clearly remember seeing "WHITE GENOCIDE" trending on twitter in the middle of the work day by thousands of Just a normal patriot mom who's tired of the left's lies! back in the summer of 16, and poo poo like that was being astroturfed on the daily for months. I was also living in rural PA and hearing my neighbors repeating the same conspiracy bullshit that was popping off on r/the_donald like days after seeing it vote manipulated to the frontpage with 75,000 upvotes. Like, yeah, if you go full Louise Mensch with the 70000 sealed indictments, it starts to get qanon-y. But the basics of the quid-pro-quo between Russia and Trump and the involvement of the IRA in pushing misinformation is just established fact at this point.

AnimeIsTrash posted:Every large world government has a vested interest in the US as our dumbass country is hellbent on carrying out imperialism across the globe. It felt like people just learned this in 2016? It's only fair after the boys and girls of the company interfere in theirs. Like most things in the Trump era, it's just bringing the corruption to the forefront. Saying the quiet part out loud. It's always been a problem, but the powers that be have always been fine when there was a veneer of decorum about it. Dark money groups post-Citizens United running dogwhistling anti-crime ads aren't that much different from state-sponsored Russian hackers gaming social media to rile up racist grievances. It's just the latter doesn't have any semblance of plausible deniability.

qirex posted:the russia thing is vastly less important than the 2+ century legacy of disenfranchising people in the us but trump won by so little there's not much doubt to me it was important I guess I don't think it's a zero-sum game when you're talking about all the ways republicans will lie, cheat, and steal to win. Again, Trumpism is all about saying the quiet part out loud and removing any plausible deniability from republican strategies.

I have no idea who the guy is and did zero research for my hot take. Basically, I'm pro at posting. Also I had some guilt about renting out my old house on airbnb before selling it and thanks to that video I am guilt-free. Holy poo poo those guys are trash.

I had to take my wife to a surgery in Manhattan the other day, and on the way back we saw a giant billboard advertising Ohio as a cheap COL state to move to now that everyone is WFH, and it was just super hilarious to me. (And not wrong, but I have zero desire to move back)

hbag posted:can't remember how i found it since i think the first time i heard about it was back in 2012 and i signed up due to my terrible terrible fiscal responsibility Hell, same. Actually I read the frontsite in the mid 00s and lurked the forums when I was in college. Just never signed up til 2020 when I was bored and lonely cuz covid. Everywhere else on the internet is a flaming dumpster fire and is getting worse by the day. At least the cost barrier here keeps out most of that. (Not to mention the fact that it's actually community funded, and not 90% data harvesting to 10% community engagement)

That's been the market within like a 2 hour drive radius around NYC since covid. I don't know that it's development though as much as city peeps making 150k+/yr suddenly being wfh and realizing they want a yard. There's bidding wars everywhere. Which super sucks for me, not making city salary, but having a spouse with a natural resources job at a nature preserve that's just an hour's drive from the city. I don't know what the solution is, but the government (state or otherwise) has got to do something to prevent all this property from being treated purely as an investment vehicle to reduce price pressure.

I went to a weed store in Seattle on a work trip and it was fine. I proceeded to get way too high and realized I get panic attacks so I stopped smoking with them on work trips. That's my cool weed store story, thank's for reading.
