The future looks bleak...
Haha, the guy in this meme is exactly how I'd picture a financial advisor in 2030.

"Public spaces belong to the public by right. And the unhoused public, who have the greatest need for public spaces, have therefore the greatest right"
If you agree with this, you've never seen public spaces taken over by homeless.

Overthrow a Government and Install a Puppet Dictator? The CIA will do it for Bananas!
A show called Snowfall touches on a CIA agent working to bring in cocaine to the US to fund anti-communist militias in South America. Good show overall. Not the best, but interesting.

The S23+ is too bright and not bright enough at the same time
Go to screen mode in settings, slide the slider more towards the warm side. Go to advanced settings, change the white balance settings as you see fit.

It was about 10 years ago, but someone had interviewed a panel of police officers of different ranks from the counties in the bay area of California. When asked how many cops shouldn't be cops, one officer responded 75%. The others agreed with that figure.

Being forced to download the Reddit app onto my phone to view any 'NSFW' post, even though I'm on my desktop
Probably just need to sign in. But if you don't have an account already, then it's shitty that they force you to use the app to create an account.

I think social media has enabled anyone to make a quick buck if you're put in a position to do so. These two capitalized on their popularity on social media, and people, for one reason or another, will pay to be a part of it.

Just reword it some to say why it's a bad experience it is and that they should allow 3rd party apps back.

Two airplanes landing at the same time with close proximity

Looks like San Francisco. There are two main runways there, this is common. I think it's just time and chance to land at the same exact moment like this.

16-year-old girl stabbed to death by another teen during McDonald's sauce dispute
Another article I read mentions that Naima Liggon, 16, was the 13th murder in this area of someone under 18 this year. Most of these murders are at the hands of other minors. This happened at 2am despite a curfew in effect for children 16 and under in hopes to limit violence. Naima was attacked, didn't fight back and tried to leave, and was stabbed twice with a 7.5 inch knife upon entering a car. Naima died on the last day of summer break.

Why upgrade every year at all? Keep the S23 for the four years they update the OS.

Quite a talent
One jump, one whistle, and one fart was the highest level of entertainment at the time I guess. I'm glad human entertainment has evolved beyond the humor level of my six year old son.

Traffic battle rule
I take the train to work since my job pays for it, but I'm not going to pretend like it's faster than driving through traffic. If I drive, door to door takes 30 - 45 minutes depending on the time I leave. If I take public transportation, door to door it takes an hour and 15 minutes no matter what.
