    I understand. I throw obscene amounts of money at the cash black hole that is rent. I understand entirely how people think that people who make money simply by sitting on assets they own and otherwise provide nothing to society should be, ahem, obliterated. I just think it’s still possible to obliterate them with regulations instead of actual murder.

    I get the violent rhetoric, I really do. But, at the same time, I can’t help but feel like more people would be more amenable to social reform that benefits the little guy to the mere detriment of the rich, rather than murdering them horribly. I could be wrong, but doesn’t history teach us that violent revolution more often just begets more violence than actually solves problems?

    My daughter was watching Bluey the other day, and Bingo wanted some “Pavlova”. I immediately thought it was some reference to them all being dogs and Pavlov.

    Nope. Turns out it’s actually a dessert named after a Russian ballerina that originated in either New Zealand or Australia in the early 20th century.
