    Boston has a whole road that is the physical manifestation of Chaos.

    Storrow Drive. Runs along the Charles and is basically the northern border of the city. It has many underpasses, most of which are low enough to munch moving trucks. Every year around late Aug early Sept when college kids are moving in a few trucks get Storrow’d. It’s refered to as The Storrowing. It’s a fun time to need to get around the city.

    Honestly Storrow is one of the scariest roads in New England, and I used to drive every day to and from work almost the entire length of Memorial which is on the opposite bank of the Charles which is a NARROW four lane road (2*2), with a speed limit that is both probably too high and completely ignored, on top of being almost eternally congested. How I didn’t see a horrible wreck every day confuses me still.

    tl;Dr: Don’t drive in Boston unless your ready for some fun (I love the chaos)

    Sep26 releases on mobile, and if you can’t wait till then there’s a really cool GitHub project that converts your Steam into to an APK. It’s works astoundingly well.





  • Recently watched Channel5 interviews at the Poor People’s Army rally at the DNC and listened to Stein talk for like 10minutes. She’s not wrong with anything she says, but she is entirely and completely innefectual at fomenting any momentum to effect the change she speaks about. So up to this point all they have achieved is to become the butt of everyone’s jokes.

    The Green party does support ranked choice voting, but it’s seemingly down the list of their concerns when it should be #1, with a bullet. They will never, ever, achieve anything except the odd headline until we move on from first past the post.





  • I had major gallstone attacks a couple times a week for like 6-8 months before I finally drove myself to the ER at 2am after being woken by one. Was in surgery 3hrs later.

    Was utterly excruciating pain in your abdomen, and it just grows and grows and grows, and lasts from 20minutes to over an hour. Nothing ever touched the pain either, and my PCP misdiagnosed it as extreme acid reflux and had me on Prilosec for months.

    0/10, do not recommend. Plus not having a gallbladder kinda sucks ass.
