Astro kids, where should I do this as an amateur? I was in Flagstaff, AZ and apparently they try to be good at this around there?

Good point. I'm frankly tired of these "kids" "having a nice day"

I've actually made this mistake in real life. So don't worry

It's over. I'll never be out in public again without bringing children to tears

That would be anti-balaclava bigotry. As for a hat I can't because I'm sadly an adult. I can't believe there are guys my age wearing baseball caps in public

My haircut sucks. What am I going to do? Get my hair cut again in the next few months? Not an option

The last word is the best cocktail and 'the bad word' is the best fake hipster spin on a cocktail. Thank me later.

Yeah, he retired from 'professional' physics to run a physics blog for a while. Hed always have a good take when something at CERN popped up, etc.

Any physics people know what happened to Lubos's blog? He was always fun when there was new "stuff" was happening

I'm too much of a snowflake to do the actuarial science

Upton Sinclair is awful. Jesus. Tell him to learn how to read or something. Anyway, what advice would you give for guys like me who don't have kids but whose women will have kids?

Have you suggested he engage in this labor rather than read about it? I've swung a sledgehammer for hours a day in the deep south. I promise you it's not an intellectual experience.

Is he a fan of Christopher Snitchens? I believe he was the only (famous) openly self-described trotskyist in 21c america

What's up, my guy? (trigger warning: im being ironic) still doing the teaching thing or doing big tech millionaire stuff?

I think it's pretty sweet that Rick James could say, "Temptations, sing!" and they do. It'd be awesome to be in a bar, a business meeting or pretty much anywhere and say, "Temptations, sing!" and have them do it.

lol. do you remember we first posted together in like 2003? I guess that makes sense. btw, have you asked him if you can drop that term? Almost every Trotskyist considers Trotskyite a slur.

I'm sure this has been addressed but how are people dealing with the realization that if we date people our age they may very well have kids? I just had this conversation with a neighbor. She never wanted kids but she met a guy and, you know, he's got an ex and a kid. This is just normal at a certain age.

I had something I liked with a married woman. Turns out there's not an easy endgame there. Who knew?

You must be your own advocate. It's impossible to overstate that. And I do have personal and professional experience with this. People want to believe there's a system with experts and it's their role to be passive patients. That is *possible* and it *can* work for you. But you need to be prepared for the possibility it doesn't.

Haven't been here in a while. So it's all just a reddit-tier "can you believe some people don't obey Dear Glorious Biden???" cuddle-puddle?

As Spring arrives, I curse the idiots who thought Bradford Pears were a good idea. I'm working on having the greatest buddleia in all the land.

Perhaps I should introduce myself. I'm your huckleberry. Whomever has implied they're in charge here*: I have them wrapped up in perpetuity. Welcome to the desert of the real. *Xray? Coco? They've never, ever won an argument against me and they're not about to start now. If you don't know, now you know. I run shit here. They just mod here.
