My wife and I started our annual Halt & Catch Fire rewatch, which means it’s time to do my annual share of @pftompkins.bsky.social alternate theme song.
Finally got the go-ahead to post my rejected theme song for Halt And Catch Fire. IT’S THEIR LOSS

How can you tell if someone is actually hurt in soccer, I feel like I'm watching WWE trying to figure out if an athlete is hurt for reals or not

Hot take: living in your parents house rent free and getting a down payment from them IS getting help from your parents. I'm glad more kids are getting that help and I hope to do the same for my own but most people I know my age (mid 30s) were told to GTFO when we turned 18.
Gen Z homeowners now outpace millennials at the same age. They're more likely to be single and less likely to use help from parents.
Gen Z homeowners? Yes, more in their 20s are managing to buy despite the odds

The new voter suppression bill—called the "Save America Act"—would require 21 million American citizens to produce passports or birth certificates to register to vote. Most don't have these documents. This is a poll tax by another name.

this is fucking unreal stuff from Noah Wyle on the magic of The Pitt. www.gq.com/story/noah-w...
![“Second point, shooting it with almost exclusively 50-millimeter or 65-millimeter lenses, which is the most comparable to the human eye—and only shooting from the point of view of a human being that’s present in this space. There are no cameras on gurney wheels going in the hallway. There’s no cameras on the ceiling looking down from a God point of view. You are limited to the perspective of a participant. You can look away, but you can’t leave, and it becomes an endurance test for you to stay on your feet as long as we’re on our feet. Which [brings me to my] third point: real time. Real time has an aggregate sense of tension that you don’t get in any other form of storytelling. What happened before is happening now, and these two things are going to add up to the next thing. And if we throw more ingredients into this cooker and keep ratcheting it up, it’s going to pop.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:guthikarwozoldkzhueivkl6/bafkreihklvhtymho7wpemo5mj2f7xaiq6ulvfvcwnzo6hjstg3wixzgesy)

Tear gas is an expected, normalized part of protests today. But its use in war is banned. How can that be? That’s just one of the questions we investigate in this episode. From the history of tear gas to what’s in these chemicals and much more, this is an info-packed episode you won't want to miss.

Great item today from @cheetah.bsky.social on JD Vance's forthcoming conversion memoir. TL;DR: Although Vance is Catholic, the cover photo for his book depicts a (very photogenic) Methodist church. www.thebulwark.com/i/192730409/...
