@numericcitizen beautiful brutalist but how does one jump the moat?

@amerpie im fond of those birds. We have em in Nevada too, but can we get an affectionate alternate for “grackle? It doesn’t really fit them. I’ve heard “corvette” as a possibility, which sounds pretty good, no?

@JohnPhilpin leet or LEET, as in “elite”, as in character shape collision corny hacker slang, as in 1337.

@aral what’s wrong with seeing the USA up close? I mean, it’s not what’s it’s cracked up to be…

@eurobubba Surely they’re going for emotional imprint rather than horticultural accuracy…

Of course your point stands, but maybe we just put a couple of points on the license rather than immediately revoking it. I mean, we all know what’s it is like to stand in line at the DAV (Department of Artistic Vehicles) all day…

@cherizilla ha! I was surprised when I first saw one, too. ❡ Maybe they’re going for “be smart enough to know all deals are final”?

@MitchWagner Yes—and the will power, aka functioning executive function, aka flames under buttocks to do it—but yes! (Note the em dashes in this post were human created.)

@Archimage every goddam time…it’s a circle not a line.

@bkryer maybe I’m a dummy and just don’t get something, but to just dismiss these pursuits as hokum with no attention to the insights yielded, no acknowledgement of their value. Idk, it baffled me to hear it.

@hotdogsladies she was so awesome in The Studio and countless others. Damn.
