"an October Surprise isn't something you can see coming in advance!"

'The October Surprise' has a high degree of difficulty.
You need (in a very particular order):
a kiddie pool
4 gallons of orange jello
a mini step ladder
two pairs of goggles
a backstop made of pumpkins
2 'family size' tubes of KY

The confluence of Big Data with law enforcement is... showing results that are dystopian - the cameras combined with id tags like license plates and facial recognition.

Time for concern. Like Susan Collins levels of concern.

Your financial data should not be used as input into a model that police use to pull you over. Agree?

Didn't the Supreme Court rule these tariff directives coming from the executive branch were illegal? Companies were refunded?

I'm confused.

Having your healthcare connected to your job is insanity. It's not far from serfdom.

Agreed. And so many jobs don't even provide reasonable healthcare options.
There are also a lot of people in their fifties who are in a financial position to retire and make way for younger people in the workforce but they are forced to hang on for years for no other reason than health insurance.

>Trainwreck: Woodstock '99.

Yeah that one.

Get into the wartime spirit and create a little ersatz kaffee - a bit of the real stuff, a bit of crushed acorns, a scoop of ditchweed, and a pinch of frumunda cheese.

I recently saw a documentary on Woodstock '99. Michael Lang and a bunch of greedfux organized it at a decommissioned air force base.

Wiki sums it up best:

"The festival was marred by sexual harassment and rapes, difficult environmental conditions, overpriced food and water, poor sanitation, rioting, looting, vandalism, arson, violence, and three deaths, leading to media attention and controversy that vastly overshadowed coverage of the musical performances. It has been described as 'a flashpoint in cultural nadir', 'like a concentration camp', like being 'in another country during military conflict', and like 'a scene where zombies are coming over the castle walls', with the morning after likened to the Bosnian War."

One woman who attended gave details of how she contracted 'trench mouth' from the water.

Two thumbs up on the documentary.
