Lucian might be a too obvious name for a mostly antagonistic charterer but I think sometimes on the nose names are good.

"occasional table"?"occasional table"? why would I want THAT give me the "relentlessly spamming you table."

A little excerpt from "the book"There was something more real, more human about scrolling with your fingers. There was something more grounded about having to *find* someone’s name and then tap on it to link to them- no not "link" to “call” them.
Yes, that’s what they called it back in the old days: “phone calls”— and they had beginnings and endings. People said things like “hello” and “goodbye.” Truly, Lucian thought, it was a lost and better time.

Lucian walked along the long Avenue, looking at a New York City, that could’ve come out of a period movie. He touched his pocket, gently, a heavy, metal rectangular object rested there. A physical phone. With a feeling of wonder and amusement he drew it out and looked down at the flat dimensionless little screen. He hadn’t seen a physical phone since he was a child.

It bothers me that before they show the footage of the murder of these people, the news man never says "We are about to show footage where people were killed some viewers might find this disturbing." As they would for other disasters, so when the bile ...They are just (maybe) smugglers or people who have be hired by smugglers. That is, it's basically a small commercial vessel possibly for a black market good, but maybe not even that. Maybe the boat is full of sneakers and fish. We don't even know. It's not even going to the US. Why do we care? Go home.

I'm not into war or war stuff, but if I were and I was on an aircraft carrier I would be so... disgusted and shamed by this BS. It's like like well it's
Blowing up a motor boat with an aircraft carrier. I can't think of a better example of "disproportionate"
It's embarrassing. Shame on the whole nation.

These are monstrous machines of war. The boats they are shooting are unarmed.
You want the drugs? Want the drug dealers? Point your guns at them and simply take them.
They could find out who sent out the boats. Go find that person. You know if you cared about any of this.

As they would for other disasters, so when the bile rises in my throat, because I really did just see some people snuffed out of existence I also have to feel like I'm being too sensitive for caring.
The careless way some death is displayed is also a kind of propaganda that explains who matters.

Two weeks till winter break and this is the WORST time of the year.Two weeks till winter break and this is the WORST time of the year. Every day it's another thing. MY GOD.
If you know any teachers? Be nice to them at this time of year. It really is THE WORST. And we only had 3 weeks between thanksgiving and winter break so Everything Must Happen Now.
It should be a month... for breathing room.

Another victim of Trump’s #BigLie, who potentially could have killed hundreds.Apparently the FBI says they have identified him using cellphone data.
Hopefully this is real, this lose end has always been ugly. I would like to know who he was working with— who did he talk to online?
Some people are surprised he’s a black guy but there have always been a few like him in that movement. It could be awkward if he’s friends with some of the people who have since been pardoned.

What's more than a little surreal is that the school districts that have been price gouged by Amazon go full Stockholm Syndrome and defend Amazon.Every week I have this fight “can’t you just find it on amazon?” no I can not, not for this good price— just do the extra paperwork it takes to order from a new place. I’m saving money!

I'm sorry but I don't believe you.It's an SEO trap. Just tons of pages designed to attract search so they can boost the links of other pages.
