This is great.
What kind of goofus was filming that, though? Can’t see her left hand half the time, or her face. But damn, that is some playing right there. I know, I am probably supposed to hate her because especially in the first piece she’s using techniques from like 38 different cultures there, but fortunately most liberal types who watch this won’t recognize any of it so will just think it sounds like weird guitar.
Fuck ’em. She’s indeed great.

How to Enable Gmail’s New Offline Mode.
Hey, cool! Offline mode!
Oh, wait, I’ve had that available since 1986 when I got my first email address. That’s because I use a non-shit desktop client that allows me to do productive things whenever I want to. I know that many people — including friends of mine — find Gmail useful and even good. But all I see are its huge limitations. This removes one limitation, so that’s something I guess.
But still, I had “offline mode” for 32 years before Google thought anyone needed it.
That is from Lyman Stone.
No, this is not me supporting incel bullshit. At the same time, anyone who thinks sex is not a very, very strong human drive for most people is just…wrong. That spike in men there during the Great Recession (and the smaller increase for women), what’s the origin? Great Recession economic dropouts that more women then find unattractive? I have no idea. I do know that it won’t (and isn’t) having a good effect on society in toto.
Huh, someone like me.
because yeah, i can’t STAND plain water – it tastes like the inside of my mouth. it tastes like spit. imagine drinking a glass of ice cold spit. ugh.
When I tell people that I’ve not really drank plain water in many years, they are shocked. But here’s the thing: water, even water that has been filtered, tastes like spit mixed with garbage to me. I’m a mild supertaster, so I can taste the container, and what used to be in the container. And water always tastes like something — something bad.
I cannot drink plain water, and never will if there is anything else at all available. I once went nearly two days without drinking anything in the army because there was just water. And water tastes frickin’ foul.
