“SJW? Oh, you mean the GOOD GUYS?”
Q: What arcades did you hang out in when you were young? My usual places were Captain Video and the Santa Monica Pier, and I spent so much time playing pinball at the UCLA arcade that people thought I was a student there.

I only got to go to Captain Video a couple of times when I was a kid, because I lived in the valley and was only in West LA for auditions. In fact, Captain Video is where I discovered Wizard of Wor for the first time. I never played at the pier, but I heard the legends.
My regular video game hangouts were in the local 7-11, a place called Sunland Discount Variety, and the very occasional trip to Pinball Plus up in La Crescenta. When I was super super super lucky, I’d get to go to Malibu Grand Prix in Northridge, when we’d visit my great aunt.
I miss video arcades, and I have this dream of opening a proper 80s arcade that only plays music from before 1988, with games to match. Once it is making money, I’d expand to include a brewpub, and then I’d build an apartment upstairs where I’ll spend the rest of my days preserving my urine in jars and building the Spruce Moose.
I will gladly help with this dream all the way up to and including the brew pub part. Past that you’re on your own.

Q: With such a narrow margin in MA, will Bill Clinton's appearances (some are saying illegal campaigning) at polling places open the results to questioning or legal challenges?

Senator Sanders doesn’t seem to spend a lot of time on stuff like that and the proportional allocation of Democratic contests – and relatively close margins in many of these states – mean that the delegate allocation is pretty even in states like Massachusetts, so I wouldn’t expect to see any formal complaints from the Sanders campaign. However, President Clinton needs to be very careful about his campaigning. Nobody expects him to sit on the sidelines, but he needs to walk a fine line as a former President or he’ll do more to damage Hillary than help her. People are looking for any reason to attack the Clintons for “bending rules”. Rivals spent both of Bill Clinton’s terms trying to find something to use to attack the Clintons, and that can’t happen again, so these type of mistakes can’t happen.
Nate Silver and this tumblr are my go-tos for election insight.
Q: I know you're still counting him out overall, but unless something drastic changes I'm willing to guarantee record turn out June 7 and Bernie takes CA. If that happens, what does it mean for the Clinton campaign? For the Sanders campaign?

Hillary Clinton will clinch the Democratic nomination before the California primary, and California isn’t as liberal in Presidential elections as people imagine it is. Is it a safe state for the Democrats? Yes. But it’s also Clinton Country and has been since the early 1990s. Despite a strong organization in 2008, Obama was beaten pretty handily by Clinton in the 2008 California primary.
I wouldn’t bet on Bernie Sanders winning the California primary, and I certainly wouldn’t bet on a record turnout. California’s primary is too late in the calendar to be a game-changer and California’s voters don’t flood the polling places for primary elections.

Holy shit this video is amazing and worth every second.
why does this have 32k notes? it’s just a picture of a knife in a ranch bottle, is there some unspoken joke that 32 thousand people share? what is going on here, i dont get it. it’s just a fucking picture of a knife in a ranch bottle. is there some spiritual connection people have to this picture? is there some ominous and mystical reasoning that this has 32 thousand notes? do people reblog this because it makes them look like some indie blogger? or is there just something funny to this? someone please explain
no one tell him
Scheduling this to post on March 15 because it needs to happen.
