Pleasantville is such a good movie. The fact that I love it so much despite disliking the two main actors in the movie goes to show how good the story is.
Random lights turning on by themselves used to be a sure sign of a ghost. Now it just means a bug in HomeKit.

The Max app is so shitty I would cancel their service if I wasn’t getting it for free.
Animated artwork in the Music app is kinda neat, but I don’t think I need 2Pac blinking at me.
What Is Reddit's CEO Doing?
This article really doesn't look good for Steve Huffman or Reddit's investors. Some of my favorite bits:
About a year into his tenure as Reddit CEO, it came out that Huffman was rogue-editing comments that were critical of him...
Huffman chose to compare the moderators who objected to his API decision-making as the “landed gentry”...
Huffman seems confused about his competitors and about the risk factors of community moderation...
Reddit just reopened r/Place, a kind of collaborative art project, which may be a way of gauging the mood. Huffman’s handle on Reddit is “spez,” and you can count for yourself the number of times Redditors have written “fuck spez” on r/Place.
It looks like Proton Pass now has support for credit card entries and notes. It doesn’t look like credit card autofill works, but they are making progress quickly. I may be ditching my current solution sooner than I expected. Still waiting for a Safari extension though.
My dog has been itchy all summer. He even broke open his skin and caused an infection on his shoulder that is still healing 3 months later. The only thing that seems to help (to some extent) are pills that cost $81 for a 30 day supply and he’s itchy as soon as they run out. Time for a new vet?
I have never clicked on a YouTube short on purpose.
Tupac Shakur was a huge presence in my adolescence. All these years later he remains in my top 10 played artists each year. It will be interesting to see if anything comes from the search warrant that was executed in relation to his murder that took place more than 25 years ago.
Instagram ads are creepily on point.
There were some stupid scenes and effects in The Flash but overall I had fun. Shocked at some of the cameos. It probably deserved better at the box office.
I’m really interested in e-bikes. Does anyone have experience with them? What to look out for?
How many times does it need to be said that the GOP is not pro-life and hates poor people?
I did not see this coming. The son-in-law of the blue and black dress lady was charged with trying to kill his wife.

Ignoring Radioactive Waste for 75 Years
From Missouri Independent
Generations of children who grew up alongside Coldwater Creek have, in recent decades, faced rare cancers, autoimmune disorders and other mysterious illnesses they have come to believe were the result of exposure to its waters and sediment.
This is certainly true of my mom. She grew up around and played in the creek. She has had multiple cancers, autoimmune disease, and other health issues.
Radioactive waste was known to pose a threat to Coldwater Creek as early as 1949, records show. K-65, a residue from the processing of uranium ore, was stored in deteriorating steel drums or left out in the open near the creek at multiple spots, according to government and company reports.
Fuck these people. Fuck them all.
