Gimme Shelter

Who didn’t see this coming?

The ways and means of capitalism are utterly predictable if not utterly unimaginative. Even more predictable and unimaginative is the rush, by would be venture bros, to fill the void by pledging to be the next and best swap meet for your merch table. That is, until the next one.

Nature may abhor a vacuum but capitalism’s maximum efficiency for maximum profits edict absolutely adores them.

It’s time for independent recording artists to transcend the digital sharecropper mindset, divest from the tired schemes of platform overlords and return to the open web.

The open web is not a platform, the open web is a coral reef around which autonomous ecosystems can interconnect, co-exist and thrive.

I really like Google’s Material Design Specification. Each iteration of the spec (currently MD3) is bringing UI/UX closer to a science. I’m going to begin adapting their concepts into my project workflow. Unfortunately, in the world WordPress land of page builders, component libraries, css frameworks and even more broadly, web development as a whole, there are so many competing schools of thought, I doubt any meaningful adoption of standards will ever reach broad consensus, much less adoption.

• My Navigation Rail is almost complete. I’m refactoring to cleanup some previous errant CSS
• Need to circle back to nail down the transform of the vertical line rule that animates in when the Navigation drawer is opened.

• Remix the World

In class warfare, there can be no peace with an enemy who says the quiet part loudly and does the dirty part with impunity.

So, when you hear

• Eat the Rich
• Kill Your Masters
• Burn it Down

these are not just slogans, this is a to do list.

It Was All Yellow

Never hate your enemies. It affects your judgment. Hey, listen, I want somebody good – and I mean very good – to plant that gun. I don’t want my brother coming out of that toilet with just his dick in his hands, alright? Don Corleone, I am honored and grateful that you have invited me to your home on the wedding day of your daughter. And may their first child be a masculine child. Te salut, Don Corleone.

In Sicily, women are more dangerous than shotguns. Very well. You want to do business with me. I will do business with you. Is that why you slapped my brother around in public? We’re both part of the same hypocrisy, senator, but never think it applies to my family. It’s not personal. It’s business.

Never let anyone know what you are thinking. What’s the matter with you? Is this what you’ve become, a Hollywood finocchio who cries like a woman? “Oh, what do I do? What do I do?” What is that nonsense? Ridiculous! Hey, listen, I want somebody good – and I mean very good – to plant that gun. I don’t want my brother coming out of that toilet with just his dick in his hands, alright? I don’t trust a doctor who can hardly speak English. Is that why you slapped my brother around in public?

It’s an old habit. I spent my whole life trying not to be careless. Women and children can afford to be careless, but not men. In Sicily, women are more dangerous than shotguns. It’s a Sicilian message. It means Luca Brasi sleeps with the fishes. When they come… they come at what you love.

We’re both part of the same hypocrisy, senator, but never think it applies to my family. Don Corleone, I am honored and grateful that you have invited me to your home on the wedding day of your daughter. And may their first child be a masculine child. Friends and money – oil and water. Sonny, please don’t do anything. Please don’t do anything. I don’t feel I have to wipe everybody out, Tom. Just my enemies.
