I think it's time for all of us to finally agree that Doonesbury was the shittiest cartoon in human history
Wait, what? Forgotten but not gone, I guess
When it comes to comic strips, I'm strictly a Nancy Man
I'm also partial to Johnny Ryan's Angry Youth Comics. I can't believe no newspapers picked it up
I have always enjoyed the moral message it gave to youngsters

Rita Hayworth's bumpers might be on the scrap heap, but her gams are on a 1939-41 Lincoln Continental convertible #DavesCarIDService
btw, the rear trunk mounted spare on these cars are why they are generically called "Continental Kits." It was a styling cue on Lincoln Continentals all the way to 1988.
also btw: it may be an apocryphal story, but some accounts say the Margarita cocktail was named after Rita Hayworth (whose birth name was Margarita Cansino) by Agua Caliente racetrack bartender Danny Negrete

I hope we all can agree NFL overtime rules suck
I found it, the worst tweet in history
My OT idea: simple continuation of the game and the first team to score wins. If Team A has the ball at their own 25, 3rd and 5 when the 4th quarter clock runs out, just keep playing. No coin toss, etc etc.

Now here's something I didn't see coming: Harvard educated NY Times columnists likening Iranian military personnel to insects, and inviting a discussion on various methods to eradicate them
I'm a farm boy too, but I prefer geopolitical analyses that don't appeal to my barnyard pest control instincts
Ironically, 97% of the NY Times subscription list are WASPs

I thought about a friend from a long time ago. Our time together was short, but somehow it felt like it was a big part of my childhood. Do you remember moments like that from your life? (Part 1/5) #comic
Part 2/5
Part 3/5

 “It’s About Time!”
by @DickieArmour


You have 24 hours a day.

But how do you spend your time?

This #tweetstorm is a wake up call.

It’s about time, and how you spend it.

#Time #TimeManagement #24Hours #itsabouttime
2.
 Let’s assume each day begins and ends at midnight.

Let’s assume we work for 10 hours a day, 5 days a week.

That leaves 14 hours.

We sleep for 8 hours a night.
3.
 That’s leaves 6 hours every week day.

And 16 hours each Saturday and Sunday.

That’s 6 x 5 = 30 hours Mon - Fri + 32 hours at the weekend.



A total of 62 hours a week, of your time to spend.

Why focus on water when there’s so many other issues going on in the world ? Let’s explore this:
Water saturates nearly every land-use issue that human communities face, and it does so in a way that is hyper-specific to that place.
Because of this, the very process of solving water issues engenders intense study of one’s immediate environment. Water dissolves abstraction.

1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.

2018: My Year of Reading. A thread that follows my reading journey from January to December. Every book I've read with a 280 character review. Tagged a few folks who influence the shape of my literary life 📚 #THEBOOKCHAT #DisruptTexts #TeachLivingPoets 📚
1. Never Let Me Go; Kazuo Ishiguro: A supremely crafted narrative begins unassumingly, but quickly reveals a different notion of childhood innocence and coming of age. The conversational tone fooled me into thinking I was walking into a world I understood. Nobel worthy.
2. We Should All Be Feminists; Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie: As an author who breathes eloquence, Adichie doesn't disappoint. This short book/long essay is insightful and logical and human. If we want to raise boys without the toxic masculinity, this is on the required reading list.

Simple way to say, human #History is millions of years old, and measured in the manner of Chaturyuga (4 main yugas/cycles). In due time, the Races of mankind (and/or, genetic make-up) gets diluted, lost, assembled/reassembled, out-mixing (w/other species), unregulated mixing,
etc. & via such phenomena in successive ages. Truly unfathomable to understand, Sat Yuga was of dominant Brahmanas/Rishis (a single homogeneous racial purity/ 12 strand+ DNA), & divisions arose in Treta- 6 main races & various sub-races, interbreeding w/other species & so forth.
The emergence of total white skin(albinism/12K BP) further aggravated the racial dilution few thousand years back(who masterminded this scenario?). Anyway, discerning the present scenario, and learning something out of this mess, it's necessary to connect to the remnants of ...
