QUICK HITS
rafe is absolutely unhinged with her amazon reviews. also if you like a little spooky read, she enjoyed the DEMON AT THE WINDOW, which is about provincetown’s “devil of the dunes” https://www.trulyhorror.com/the-demon-at-the-window-provincetown-devil-of-the-dunes

caleb saw longlegs! no big spoilers; caleb liked it mostly. he’s also reading the lord of the ring, which is awesome. caleb is planning a trip to california to go to a movie premiere – the movie that rafe and caleb helped produce, called “art of a hit.”

help keep crowdtangle active so we have good transparency and fact-checking tools during the election! https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/campaigns/crowdtangle-petition/

and PLEASE VOTE (not for trump). vote local, fight the politicians who are trying to take away human rights, and vote for the president that won’t take away human rights!

– bears or robots for world domination. who you got? what other faction would there be?
– for a movie about focusing, why was the movie focus so hard to focus on?
– are hyennas really laughing or is it how they communicate with each other
– how does one maintain focus when forced to work on ones birthday? do you stick with the standard coffee or upgrade to an energy drink?
– how does one maintain focus when another coworker keeps eating his or her lunch on occassion?
– when it comes to reading, I need silence and zero distractions, while others don’t lose focus on what they are reading no matter what background distractions are present. which type of reader are you?
– how many squints are too many for a movie? would tracking the squints have made that movie better?
– how many monitors and how many tabs is ideal? does having a 2nd monitor help or hurt your focus? (muah, I got there!)

HOT HOT TOPICS
– for a star wars day event this weekend in syracuse, someone scheduled william shatner for an appearance.
– what are valid reasons for pings? don’t @ me
– unbeknownst to you, there is a chance that you have saved a life. could be a stranger, could be somone you know, but your being has likely had an impact on another altering their course.
– if you’re having a total shitshow of a day and your mood is somewhere near the bottom of an arby’s dumpster, is there one thing that can turn it around instantly and make you feel like nothing that happened earlier matters anymore? it could be a person, a food, an activity… anything that makes the world go away in an instant, without fail.
– a masked man in nyc ate an entire container of cheeseballs at union square park. he made flyers for it and had a huge audience
– now that the weather is getting nicer, we are in my favorite time of year: yard sale season. do you have any fun or interesting yard sale stories?
– what quote or saying do people often say, but you believe is complete trash? for me it’s ‘it is what it is’. I also hate it when you open up about something, and someone has to give an example of a time a similar bad thing has happened to them. like it’s a competition.
