The City of Denver trash app, which primarily is little more than a reminders app you put your address into, includes a game about sorting recyclables. I want Xcel Energy to get a game.

there's a real conversation to be had about what does and does constitute safety but if you're using the moment of a Trumpist crackdown on a city denied congressional representation to say you're scared of certain neighborhoods then you're a dupe and a mark at best and a quiet fascist at worst.

A different BC in western Massachusetts does the same, including having tried to open a business bank account under my email address. I noticed it was a small MA bank so figured it was that guy again, so I called the branch and they said he was in there in person doing it.

The guy with my name who lives in Cork, Ireland—a lovely place—and gives out my email address all the time, just signed me up for the Irish Rail newsletter. He doesn't appear to have bought a ticket or anything and this is a side effect, he just wanted train news...which I now get. Great.

I wonder if this ever goes toward having no bathrooms at all. Enough BWW’s and similar places are going to get sued or lose business for becoming body inspectors, driving their whack job owners to lobby against the need to provide bathrooms at all and eliminate their risk.

I brought my family to see Congress certify the vote for the 2020 presidential election. The first thing I saw was a bunch of MAGA thugs assaulting the Capitol, one of whom was wearing a stupid buffalo hat. So forgive me if I doubt that the guy who pardoned them is going to bring crime down.

Do you use different names on different legal paperwork? As in are you sometimes Ryan Cox and sometime Ryan Middlename Cox? The judge at my last jury duty mentioned this as a reason people get called more often (and that frequency isn’t a reason to be excused from his court).

I studied maps of the area I lived in. What are major streets, where are highways, what city is what direction of the other, etc. I drove around the Chicago area umpiring baseball games and had to know where high schools or parks were, and the need to be on time turned navigation into a need.
