A: Everyone is equal.
B: I know that.
A: I mean EVERYONE is equal.
B: Oh… you mean those guys over there as well? Ah… I guess they are as equal over there as we are over here… but I don’t see any reason for them to come over here and be equal.

I expect that expectation to be wrong…
Checksum validation failed, expected <html> but is aa163ea9976e95abbdfd985fd6fd239297c14ff3 from sonatype-nexus-snapshots for https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/com/google/guava/guava-parent/23.0-android-SNAPSHOT/maven-metadata.xml

My Neighbor is an Avenger… I think…
I think an Avenger moved into my house.
Here’s what the hinges on the door looked like after he tried to open it. Now it won’t close properly:
And he tried to do laundry, but that caused even worse problems:

I am amazed watching right-wing extremists solving political problems.
It seems to me, it all starts with some kind of invented panic.
(I call it the “Ragnarök-on-Thursday-mentality… you know, next week: race wars and mass rapes… get a gun, this week!)

And the world has been ending this way at least since the 30ies…
I wonder if there’s a pill for that. A diagnose? A letter combination?
Goat prices
“You Sir, have goat prices!”
“What?”
“Well, you can’t tell me they’re sheep…”
“What?”
