One of the best parts from Spaced (Simon Pegg & Jessica Stevenson’s season show from the early 2000s).

we need a /shittyaskanatchitect.

How many chassis are you on? Or do you live outside the rust belt.

Manna got rampant capitalism + AI pretty close, and has predicted McDonalds payment kiosks, Amazon worker abuse, and probably some of the tech layoffs too.

The blue stuff is insulation/vapor barrier on new construction, so it’s not even completely built yet.

I helped my buddy move his new Trinitron HD (in 1999 or 2000) up 2 flights of stairs.

Our hands were practically bleeding and thighs were bruised from stopping repeatedly to adjust our grips.

There was one point where why weren’t sure we were gonna make it and would need to go rent a dolly to finish it. Which would have meant me sitting with the TV blocking the stairs for Horner long that would take.

Sure we have plenty of high-hanging fruit:

• antiquated voting laws
• asymmetrical representation
• oligarchy via political funding
• military industrial complex

But we didn’t start a world war that killed millions of people, that we’re still digging up unexploded munitions from, and that gave us the ability to fix some of our governmental systems and implement social and societal change (at least for white European folks).
