Barnes Law School: 2nd Amendment Victory!
November 30, 2023
Actually unfriended by a former actual friend

Today I had a 2+ decade-old best friend formally cut ties with me. We hadn't really been in touch since Covid. Whenever I came back to Canada I would DM, to grab a coffee / lunch, and would get a run-around which I chalked up to busy lives. I suspected other issues were at play, but I thought I was being over cynical - even for myself.

In anticipation of coming back for the holidays, I reached out yesterday with a humorous "Are you still alive" (the thought that my friend has actually died did occur to me). The response was a terse and formal "I have no interest in catching up" (paraphrasing).

It was weird. An emotional gut-punch that I could actually feel physically.

We hadn't been in touch for years, so there is no actual day-to-day loss. It's not even the formal death of the potential "we're friends and will catch up when we catch up" type thing that hurts so much either.

It's trying to understand what happened in the mind and soul of a 25+ year friend who knew and knows me in a way few people do....

@WalmartInc @Elon #X @Twitter @Disney

I have been a shareholder in @Walmart since the Mid 90's, I just sold a lot but not all for the first time. I am still a #shareholder.

I am willing to be a stockholder of record who has standing in there is a lawyer who wants to sue the Ceo and the board personally.

#Walmart just announced they are no longer going to advertise on #Twitter / #X .

I do not understand how this does not effect the Walmart Boards #FiduciaryResponsibility to shareholders. This was a personal political decision.

The CEO of Walmart is very active in the #WorldEconomicForum and has been a major headline speaker. @wef

Great sunset tonight. Turned from yellow to orange. I love seeing hundreds of Grackles and European Starlings roosting on the wires...

Closing Argument: The Utility of Resisting Futility 

  • Dylan Thomas, the Welsh poet, said it best: Do not go gentle in that good night, rage, rage against the dying of the light. Be more like the wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist, and in the same vein, the greatest trick the system ever pulled was convincing people you cannot resist. The argument is simple, short, and, in this vein, sweet: never forget our own ability to change the world, no matter how long the odds may seem. Do indeed never go gentle in that good night.
