Stupid Wish List, Tech Edition #1
Man, I really wish they made the iPhone with dual SIM card slots.
These Sneakers Are Awesome
New Balance, and designed for biking!
Somewhere Beyond the Black River…

Run the Jewels is great. Like, all-time great. But Killer Mike is goddamn amazing all on his own. This song’s politics are pretty much precisely on point.
And like Mike, I’m glad Reagan’s dead.
