I like Star Trek. I like video games. I like Star Trek video games?

I didn’t realize Resurgence was a thing until now, so that’s awesome!

Speaking only for myself, I generally try to contextualize before I write someone off as a “piece of shit”

I imagine you could take any popular song from today and find fault in 50 years as cultural norms change.

Since you chose CDB, here is an interesting bit of trivia about that song in particular:

The song uses a clever play on words to promote Southern rock music. … The “it” that the South is going to do again, it is implied, is to produce additional popular rock groups.

Daniels factually bristled at more nefarious interpretations of what the “it” was. … Daniels told Billboard, “I’m damn proud of the South, but I sure as hell am not proud of the Ku Klux Klan. I wrote the song about the land I love and my brothers. It was not written to promote hate groups.”

Maybe use the songs as an opportunity for discussion … or save it for your kid-free time.

If you enable developer options and then disable animations, your phone will feel 1000% faster on any OS.

Make sure you have a towel. I say this as a guy who dried off after showers with an old tshirt the first week after I moved because I am a great planner.

Extend that to other less glamorous essentials. Think about the mundane things you use daily that blend into the background.

To be fair, capitalism seeks the lowest market clearance price. Until price hikes start showing a lower net return, prices will go up.

Not that I care, me cap’n’s hat never left the boat.
