LNC: STEVE HARRINGTON (inspo)

TIL in 1915, San Diego hired a “rain maker” who used a secret mix of chemicals to “attract rain” for $10,000, payable if he filled their reservoir. It rained for most of January, destroying bridges, dams, and causing 20 deaths.

that was the Devil

I mean they wanted rain

His name was Charles Hatfield and I’m not saying that you shouldn’t make a deal with him, but I am saying that you should be very clear about the terms and conditions

I think we need to fully appreciate the fact that the reason he “looks like the Devil” is that many depictions of the Devil in American popular media are specifically caricatures of this guy. Like, imagine being a con man and fucking up your hustle so badly that for more than a century afterwards people start drawing the Devil to look like you.

the influx of pornbots is so funny. we're out in our little paddleboat like "oh the rats are swarming again. auspices for the new year." and in the background the S.S. Twitter is floating past upside down.

crying and sobbing as i use my oar to push all these beautiful sirens back into the water, for i know that they deceive.

not in the fandom, not out of the fandom, but a secret third thing

I know "walkable cities" is considered a buzzword and urbanists are increasingly seen as preachy liberal wonks, but we're literally right. If you spend enough time in an American city outside the literal bubble of your car you will see people carrying groceries along the shoulders of freeways, running for their lives to cross a street, or waiting for an hour to catch a delayed bus. If you read local obituaries about pedestrian and cyclist fatalities, they're not white tech bros in spandex but people in redlined neighborhoods without proper sidewalks. You spend enough time trying to own the urbanist nerds and oops, you start condoning a status quo that is overtly cruel and racist.

calling a work of fiction "saccharine and masturbatory" to indicate that it is awesome. just like sugar and cranking off

every piece of media gets abbreviated on this site i never have any idea what Any of you are talking about. its always "oh this is just like uvbbggoiagb" & theres a new one every week

actually I was curious so I looked further into it and he's not okay and he's gone now

???? He's fine. He even uploaded another video explaining this one. bob.reese on tiktok

he's not fine he's gone

The grip he had on that leaf... he wanted to go up

This video reads like a Calvin and Hobbs comic

That strangled "let go off the leaf" cracks me up each time

Something that I first applied to working with children, and have applied in a limited form to working with adults: you don't need to tell someone when they read your instructions wrong. Sometimes it's enough to point out what they did right and then whatever they didn't do? You ask them to do it in more precise words, and you make it sound like it's a new request. Remarkable how fast things get done this way.

This is also a habit I built up from emergency response training. If I say "I need you to bring me a first aid kit and an accident report" and you bring me just a first aid kit, it's so much more efficient to say "thanks now can you bring me an accident report" than "I asked you to bring an accident report why didn't you bring me one".

Once you've internalized "a person bleeding out is one of the worst times to start an argument" you start to wonder what other tasks could get accomplished without arguing
