and now Wealth is Poverty

Jesus was a Capricorn
He ate organic food
He believed in love and peace
And never wore no shoes

Long hair, beard and sandals
And a funky bunch of friends
Reckon we’d just nail him up
If he came down again

‘Cause everybody’s gotta have somebody to look down on
Who they can feel better than at any time they please
Someone doin’ somethin’ dirty decent folks can frown on
If you can’t find nobody else, then help yourself to me

“Mission accomplished… Congratulations!”

Well, shit. Good for them! This is a long way from [insert reference to That Reddit Thread here].

They never got any further than New Brunswick

New Brunswick can do that to ya. You have to be ready for it.

Ultima IV - Quest of the Avatar (C64)

boardgame strategy meets head-to-head combat. Absolutely solid game.

now we’re talking

" How can we keep distracting from implementing Project 2025?? "

I don’t doubt what you’re saying.

This all assumes that businesses and consumers can absorb the bump in prices due to the lack of a better deal. There are going to be plenty of construction contracts that Just Won’t Happen because they won’t be able to get the building materials they need to actually build something for a price that someone is willing to pay. That’s the kind of thing that can wreck a bottom line.

I wanna be sedated

I’m not so certain. I think they’re perhaps opportunistic nihilists and have seen too deep into the abyss one too many times to know how to deal with the sheer amount of nothing they saw there.

Our mall arcade had no windows, thankfully. The original location was about the width of a British-style pub, with about 12-15 video games down one wall: Pac-Man, Tempest, and even Boot Hill (yes I am not kidding, that old thing) and about 12-15 pinball machines down the other wall (Xenon, Haunted House, they even had one from the '60’s that spent more time out of order than in service). The arcade did so well they moved to a larger space, still with no windows. It had dim lighting, a black light or 2, and patterned carpeting. There was a juke box with 45rpm singles. Kids played Erotic City by Prince until one of the straightedge kids narced and their parents had the managers pull the record from the machine. I played Time Pilot for ages. I played Time Pilot '84 for about as long. Joust, and Crystal Castles, and Gauntlet. The arcade did so well that they expanded into an adjacent space which used to be a tiny hair salon. I remember when Super Pac Man showed up, and Reactor (with the awesome music in the attract screen), and when we first got Karate Champ and Kung-Fu Master, and Star Wars, and that BIG sit-in Star Trek cabinet. Above all, I was obsessed with Dragon’s Lair, and I finally beat it in that very arcade, with only one person watching, well over a year later. I think that arcade lasted into the 1990’s, pretty sure there was a Neo-Geo machine in there the last time I checked it out. I sure remember standing outside the doors after it went out of business.

Those were the days.

Thanks. Remember, it’s nothing against you, or even against people who were lied to in order to get their vote.

At some point, some random billionaire will become slightly less billionaire-y and freak out about tariffs wrecking their bottom line. Until then, we’ve all got to grab on to our sanity and hodl like never before.
