You ever have a band that you fall absolutely in love with -- live and breathe it for days, weeks, months or even years....and then something happens, and you just don't buy that next album. it went from obsession to neglect.
mine was U2. i was so overwhelmed by them. Boy, to me, remains their shining achievement. I loved October, and the third record, and the fourth less so.
maybe it coincided with their rising fame, and it no longer came my special secret. i saw them a tiny club, but now i was forced to share them with millions, in arena settings.
also their songs got longer, more ponderous, and less hooky.
whats your example?
( i also felt this way about the police. and it also coincided with fame, so maybe its more about me than it is about them)
Mark dragged down his Chewbacca from upstairs and wore his favorite mask for Halloween. No negativity surprisingly…. ! He did, however, pay a visit to the liberal house next door and repeatedly yelled, “You’re fired! You’re fired! You’re fired!” I think they actually enjoyed it.
Send help......and a storage unit. He kept the m'fer a secret. Maybe I should come home with a pair of $1000 shoes.
Congratulation to @SGKusmertz, @bek1, and @wilbner. Your questions were chosen for tonight’s Ask Joe and the Panelists.
@SGKusmertz If you could have one song play when you enter a room, what would it be?
@bek1 Do you usually feel excited or stressed out about going back to school after summer break?
@wilbner What was the best prank you’ve ever pulled?
Another milestone...only Part A since I'm still fueling the economy!!! MAGA!!!!
No coincidences. And everything's connected.

Hmm, so 3 "big tech" related stories since the election that have sucked up the news feeds. The philandering chip guy, Outlook (do people still use that?) and now this ground stop. Is this:
1. a distraction from the "unprecedented" extra 20million voters last week?
2. a distraction from the results of, or fact that there's still1 senate and 12 house seats still not called?
3. another intentional event to convince Americans to slow down our tech/AI?
4. the beginning of a coordinated attack on American tech and economics by our adversaries?
5. a way to bog down the Trump admin/republicans for the next 2 months so they can't get anything done while still in power?
I think there's a strong case for 1-4. But if democrats start calling for more "hearings" to look into these things, then that'll confirm they're in cahoots with our adversaries for #5.
Ain't that peculiar.
