Nothing exists beyond matter and the void, chaos and oblivion.

Reverse allegory of the cave, turn around and behold the void! ha.

The Blob was the immovable object to Juggernauts unstoppable force iirc. That character only seemed to exist for metaphysical exploitation.

Munich is a very picturesque town. The bike lanes are confusing and I've nearly died 5 times by walking on them accidentally. Leaving for Paris tomorrow.

I love Munich. Lots of things to do, beer, sightseeing, museums, beer. I love Germany in general.

I haven't been that impressed with the beer tbh - a few winners, a lot of pretty so/so stuff. I didn't have time to do the museums as I was working mostly :(

For me its a nice break from the (quite amazing) choices here with all our microbrews. It’s nice to sit down to a Monastery beer brewed since 1082. Apparently German beer isn’t as great as it was as the big brewers have consolidated.

I have only really covered Bavaria within Germany, but I think there is something to be said for going to a place and having to drink what they drink versus having an endless array of options. When I see people in Paris and Stockholm drinking Brooklyn products, I am a bit disheartened.

I'll be receiving this goat suede jacket in a few weeks and would like to know how to make this jacket really work. Any recommendations on what to wear it with?
I'm thinking dark jeans, brown boots and some sort of neutral t shirt or OCBD?

Browns, beiges, light greys. Low contrast. Comfy pants. Low shoes. Layering. No watch.

What features does wool gab have?

Well, these aren't exact terms and sometimes people use the term for all sorts of stuff. But generally speaking, wool gab is a silky wool twill.

It drapes and moves well. Also wears cool in the fall and warm in the spring, but since it's a tightly woven, lightweight twill, it can be too hot for summer and too cold for winter.

I have a wool gab suit that I like, but find I have to press it often.

The current bud light ads kill me, they just totally take the piss out of drinking as sensual contemplation.the campaign boils down to 'shut up and have what everybody else is having'. Theres something to that too.
