i loved "burn after reading": regular people are charming but even more so, they are stupid, childish, selfish and greedy and CIA are mostly stupid and have no fucking idea what are they're doing. (and as an extra: no director has ever killed off brad pitt around halfway through the movie and still remained a great director(s), while keeping brad pitt the great actor that he is)

very prophetic and ahead of its time...

Higher point of impact makes SUV crashes more dangerous for cyclists (www.iihs.org)
 

Ground-impact injuries — a frequent cause of head injuries — were more than twice as common in SUV crashes than those involving cars, the study showed. The findings follow earlier IIHS research that showed SUVs are more lethal than cars to pedestrians despite design changes that have made them less dangerous to other vehicles. That study also traced the increased risk to the height of SUVs’ front ends.

Fatal bicycle crash rates have risen dramatically over the past decade. In 2020, 932 bicyclists were killed on U.S. roads, up from a low of 621 in 2010. One reason may be the dominance of pickups and SUVs in the U.S. vehicle fleet. Research consistently shows that such larger vehicles are more dangerous to bicyclists than cars.

i used to use lawnchair and tested kiss for a friend who never used smartphone before. old school. i played for few hours and kept using it myself.

widgets: clock, jtx board tasks and simple calendar pro. the rest of the home is the empty space for gestures, favorites bar/line and search.

black background.

kiss after a while disappears as the launcher should. i stopped thinking about launchers. but remember it swiftly once the discussion about launchers start. obviously.
