Day on The Hill, 1992. Free concert at Univ. of KS. Pearl Jam headlined. I had finals for my debate class 💀
How about this? Best concerts that you ALMOST got to see but DIDN’T. Include reasons if you like: Rolling Stones (play rehearsal) Johnny Cash (I dallied) R.E.M. (play performance) Nirvana (canceled, college declined to pay requested $500 appearance fee)

If you are one of the almost 100 Dems who voted to honor the guy who said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake, don’t bother asking Black people to vote for you, donate to you or canvass for you next year. Don’t bother. Please. And don’t be shocked if you get a primary opponent.

All I keep thinking about is how Pete Hegseth raised questions of the competency of a Black four-star general and Air Force fighter pilot who was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Hegseth asked did he get the job “because of his skin color? Or his skill? We’ll never know, but always doubt.”

Reminds me of KU vs K-State. KU:
Was having dinner with some friends who moved here from the Bay Area and was reminded that the Bay Area has this thing where they see themselves in this rivalry with Southern California and there are anti-SoCal advertisements and memes and people in Southern California are totally oblivious
Someone told me, "you leave a trail of joy in your wake". Don't see anything topping that ☺️

I want to learn as little as possible to use your software. Please don't MAKE me learn more.
something I have had hammered into me by working in software for the past fifteen years is that it's impossible to overstate how important a smooth and intuitive user experience is most people want things to Just Work, the second you put any tech barrier up you lose 90% of users
