I have no photo for today. I started to work on that "famous people dying" problem (calculating, not preventing), but discovered that the census data is basically in "fuck it, just choose a format, and a location, and we'll call it good." It's not good, census people, because now I have like 94 different csv files in four different formats, and I have to write something to scan them and compile as close to a uniform data set as possible. I think I'm just going to keep total and male/female splits, and ignore all the race data. It's just too inconsistent, and that simplifies the calculation. I also am going to have to interpolate data for 2010-2014, as that data just doesn't exist, I guess.
- This became an issue when I saw "Lynda Carter" trending on twitter. I was super unhappy until I saw that it was because she's going to be the president on the new season of Supergirl. Cool.
- Other comic book stuff.
- Spider-Man.
- I may have posted this already, but it's worth it for the gif.
- Whoops.
- Really? That is an incredibly stupid choice. I read something else that was talking about how they're going to be fighting over Mother Boxes, and I can't imagine that's not going to be made fun of when the movie comes out.
- I heard the sirens last night, but didn't look outside.
- So, the highlights of the plan it took them YEARS to make are:
- Spend less on Medicaid, which totally isn't going to cause problems for people who rely on Medicaid.
- Make people who get health insurance through work pay more taxes.
- Make Medicare less available to people.
- Remove the pre-existing condition protections.
- Increase cost disparity.
- Alternatively, better regulation would ensure that costs are kept competitive.
- Fuck the music industry. Specifically fuck the estates of Glenn Frey and Judy Garland for being particularly parasitic. Generically fuck everyone else on that list.
- No, this link doesn't have any particular reason for being here. It has no relation to the previous link. Zero relation.
- Wales.
- Well. This would certainly be cool.
