  1. Kim Jong Un reportedly cried over North Korea's bad economy, and it could show he's ready to cave to Trump

    • A video of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un crying about his country's terrible economy is reportedly circulating in the country.
    • The video, which was described by a defector, would mark a very strange development and possibly signal big changes coming to the country.
    • If Kim is crying about the North Korean economy, then he's effectively crying about President Donald Trump's successful sanctions regime.

    In the summer of 1935, the physicists Albert Einstein and Erwin Schrödinger engaged in a rich, multifaceted and sometimes fretful correspondence about the implications of the new theory of quantum mechanics. The focus of their worry was what Schrödinger later dubbed entanglement: the inability to describe two quantum systems or particles independently, after they have interacted.

    Until his death, Einstein remained convinced that entanglement showed how quantum mechanics was incomplete. Schrödinger thought that entanglement was the defining feature of the new physics, but this didn’t mean that he accepted it lightly. ‘I know of course how the hocus pocus works mathematically,’ he wrote to Einstein on 13 July 1935. ‘But I do not like such a theory.’ Schrödinger’s famous cat, suspended between life and death, first appeared in these letters, a byproduct of the struggle to articulate what bothered the pair.

    Exactly.  Oh, you are "representin'" a group of people whose phone numbers start with the same 3 numbers, an artificial designation concocted by the phone company decades ago?  Ok. And fuck Jim Rome. 

    Fwiw, the assignment of area codes used a scheme when they were first rolled out to use the closer numbers together for the areas with more phones. So as to make it easier to dial. For instance, NYC started as 212. DC 202 Chicago 312 etc.

    Sometimes when I’m with my family at a nice hotel, I’ll go down to the lobby shitter for some peace and quiet. Great spot is to find one on the conference room floor when there’s nothing going on yet. It will be gloriously empty and clean.

    I was in a nice place in NYC. We stayed out all night and was pretty much out of the next AM. Went into Women's bathroom by mistake. I was sitting there and two old ladies came in. Finally after at least 10 mins of them yaking I said fuck it and walked out of the stall and told them to have a nice day.

    Anyone have any experience with disposable vape pens? Thinking about grabbing a couple for hassle-free clandestine use the next time I'm in California. 

    What about bringing them in a carry on on a flight out of CA? I don't have any meaningful experience with vaping (pot or otherwise) and don't know whether the pot versions are essentially indistinguishable from less illicit products or if it's readily apparent what they are. 

    They are great. Going out there in July and will bring some of these back if I can. https://www.stickevape.com/. 70% THC.
