If you have an Alamo Drafthouse near you I suggest checking it out. They take disruptive people very seriously and have a way to inform the staff without you having to leave your seat. It is not a discount place however the tickets and really decent food is expensive.

I watch most things at home but I needed to see Dune in the theater.

The US does not recognize dual citizenship if you are a US citizen then you must use your US passport to enter the country.

This is a prime example of a good joke.

This is an extreme close up of a painting I liked in the National Portrait Gallery in DC.

If I am looking to know about a particular goings on, I will go through the news sites I trust to find the text article. I do not like video on news sites.

Back in the mid 90s, when I was a very low income earner and filing the 1040EZ, I could call an IRS phone automation and input my SSN and the relevant numbers and be done in minutes. Did that go away with the internet? Seems like they were on the ball technically then.

I like it straight rye mostly but always love to try and see if a good bartender can make it 50/50 too.

Absolute favorite is the Sazerac. Any recipe you find use less sugar.

I don't think they care as long as it "looks" like they got eyeballs.

I keep making the argument for the government agency I work for to get off the platform. But the powers that be are so hung up on engagement metrics they don't care that the site is toxic and dangerous. I also believe that Twitter activity insulates government from being shown amongst the worst of it.
