Let’s make our own police force with blackjack and hookers

“Truly, I tell you, this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three tines” - Matthew 26:34

Sorry, I’m listening to Five Iron Frenzy

The fact that something like this is illegal undermines the rule of law. People get so used to breaking it they don’t respect the institutions which then have less power.

I’m all for this but some folks with a fetish for hierarchy seem to have a problem with it.

There are easier and cheaper means of exchange. Indigenous people all over the world had access to gold but used it for decoration and not trade.

Because if we make cities better less countryside will be plowed under for something we both hate: Suburbs.

Just like how despite liking cars I want more mass transit because that means fewer people on the roads, making driving better for me.

Or feast on the delicious goo that comes out

Which is why they airlift bundles of cash when there’s a famine and not, you know, food.

If I was starving gold would still be worthless to me, regardless of how it oxidizes.

Yeah but in the countryside there’s far fewer things that are designed for humans at all, which makes me fit better there.

And scale is just one reason I’m not a city guy.

Cities are not really designed for people more than two standard deviations from the mean in height

I’m imagining trying to walk my parents through finding their dishwasher’s IP on the LAN and I realize why people take the easy route

As usual, he’s rigbt. Cars hate being in cities. City driving is the worst for them. They’re too big and they’re barely faster than walking.

Cars don’t belong in cities just like I don’t belong in cities.
