I notice a distinct sense from a lot of internet dudes that they feel like things keep being taken away from them that they just took for granted, and they don’t understand it.

This is related to something called entitlement which I don’t want to dig into here.

What I’m saying is that the world is changing, and it can be hard to understand, and I think that causes knees to jerk.

I’m sure I’m like two years behind the curve, but I just saw this in a window in Union Square and oof.

speculative brewing

Roanoke Special Export
The long-neck was full when the bartender set it down, but you look back during the pre-penalty kick commercial and it’s empty. Some joker’s scribbled the word “croatan” on the coaster that you’re sure was blank a minute before. The only handprint on the bottle is your own.

Kartikeya IPA
From his six eyes, Shiva issued the six-headed child, Kartikeya. The boy might have grown up to oppose the demon Tarkasur who, uncontested, banished the gods from their thrones, but instead, young Kartikeya’s blood flavors our beer. Drink Kartikeya IPA and taste the defeat of heaven. Complements the chili fries.

DeBeers Beer
From a very exclusive distributor in the Netherlands, this beer controls the market on low calorie taste. DeBeers is a light, sparkling malt that remains a favorite among women and the men who love them. While this beer is one of the more expensive on the market due to the strict price floor established by the distributor, isn’t she worth it?
