50 Corbusier. I despise Corbusier. Perhaps the most destructive "artist" of all. When you walk the streets of an American city and find your senses assaulted by some hulking brutalist excrescence erupting from the landscape, you can thank that snide little bastard.

It will take centuries to remediate the damage to our architecture he and his many acolytes have done.

53 On the bright side, consider that 20th C realist painting often aims at ugliness. Like fat guys on Ottomans.

At least the hulking brutalist buildings have some function...as bunkers. A lot of Le Corbusier's stuff is just...boring. I think his real crime against architecture is that he had no imagination.

141 You rarely see community groups begging for a particular structure to be destroyed because it's so horrible to look at - these brutalist buildings inspire that phenomenon in practically every city, and invariably facing stubborn resistance from Marxist urban planners.

There was a Euro- and architecto-worshipping horse's ass who procured a parcel of land with a great view of Lake Superior near the edge of my home town. He wrote of setting it aside to establish a colony of architects (who may have been practitioners in a manner) similar to Frank Lloyd Wright. "Taliesin North" or some such he wanted to call it. Waxed poetical about the higher nature of architects, he did.

Now, my home town already had one asshole architect. A native, no less. Went to high school with him, I did. Got in at the ground level of dropping his excremental "creations" along the town's newly available waterfront property, he did. Widely viewed as opportunistic pond scum, he is.

Anywho, Mr. Taliesin North either shoved off or was unable to procure whatever salesmanship faerie dust was needed to create his "Assholes on the Bluffs" architect colony. It's now a campground. How successful it is, I do not know. But the infestation of asshole architects appears to have been nipped in the bud, snd thank goodness for that.

We can meet all of our monthly financial needs just on Dolley's salary. We may have to cut a cruise next summer if I don't find something in the next 2-3 months, but I talked with our financial advisor yesterday who told me two things:

1. We're not big spenders. I thought we were, but he insists we're not.

2. Even if we have to dip into savings (which is...not a small amount of money), we won't have to worry about anything for a long time. And we're probably not going to have to dip into savings.

Thankfully, we bought the boys both Switch 2's months ago, so their Christmas shouldn't be affected at all.

I had it at an Irish Pub where it was imported from Ireland, not the Budweiser brewed stuff. It was VERY tolerable, but it's not on my list of beers I NEED in my fridge.

My uncle brought me a barbeque sauce from the Guinness brewery in Ireland. That shit was NASTY.

Kindltot got it right, it's called "Poutine".

French fries, cheese curds (it HAS to be curds) and HOT brown gravy poured over that to melt the curds. Sprinkle a little salt and maybe pepper too on top of that to taste.

What do I call that? Wonderful. Absolutely wonderful. Definitely in the "comfort food" category.
