I've Fallen and I Don't Want to Get Up

Your love is like   a mercury sandwich

Gas prices have gone down... a whole few cents. They're expected to go down further over the next few weeks. Glory be.

Today I identify as   a lost gas cap

Google's AI is better than humans in distributing wealth.

Why do we need to distribute wealth? What is this crap about killing the rich? They made their money, even if using laws slanted for their benefit. If you want to fix this, end the laws. I am not of the rich class, obviously. I don't feel I deserve their money. By the same token, I am not giving anything up because someone else wants my money. 

Automakers are dropping AM radio from EVs.

The EVs make so much noise, AM is useless. FM is also useless, but because of its content, or lack of thereof.

 

Hackers can unlock and start any model Honda

The Internet of Things continues its very slow, spectacular train wreck...

and police can monitor you via OnStar and similar services.

 

A coffee company just informed me that fresh coffee tastes better.

• Wow, I needed that. Here I am, drinking any old coffee hanging around, regardless of its age. I like my coffee just before Stuff starts to appear in it. I'm not sure how to get it much fresher than the Keurig machine to my hand.
• I could roast my own beans, but I could also make my own clothes.

We are adrift in a sea of nothingness.

Things just aren't the same anymore.

The One True Pizza owners sold the business. In spite of assurances nothing would change (aside from the prices), the pizza just isn't the same.

Years and years and years of pizza. We watched their kids grow up.

Nothing makes sense anymore.

People are walking around the area, glassy-eyed, looking for pizza. Sure, there are pizza places, but not this pizza place. We brought in people from many states, who all agreed this was the pizza. It was one of three restaurants we went to.

Sigh. 

2nd place is Woodstock's Pizza, in Davis, CA, but it's always cold by the time it gets halfway across the country.

Honey, they blew up the Georgia Guidestones! 

You know, that huge monument with sayings in a few languages on it, referred to as America's Stonehenge. Some claim it's religious. A local pastor said it was for cult and devil worship. A candidate for governor stated it was good they blew it up because it was Luciferian and he would use executive order to have them destroyed.

First of all, why do people think it's alright to blow things up that aren't theirs?

Second, this is your brain onto you. religion. It creates a Loonie Class, prone to explosions, murder, and other silly ideas. (a minority, of course)
