    @89th said in Doesn’t she have a dog to kill?: If true, a big if... that is evil. Let’s back it up here. It’s not like as if the other contestants are not granted citizenship. We also don’t know the nature of the “challenges”. It could very well be a reality show highlighting the challenges snd best ways of navigating them to achieve legal citizenship. If the show is demonstrating the proper way go through the immigration process, then it’s not evil at all. It’s a great good. But if you phrase it like the twitiot, it sounds like some absurd game show, and sure, that’s pretty low. But let’s get the details, first.

    I can only guess - possibly a thermobaric rocket mortar. Nasty for sure, but effective and permissible as an anti-infantry weapon. Sucks the O2 out of the blast area. Russians have used them regularly since the 2022 invasion.

    @Copper said in Emir Force One: Times change, he has the courage to change with them. We are so lucky. A fine example of troll relativism if there ever was one.

    In football you get ejected and fined for targeting.

    Very short ride. I wanted to take one from the airport to downtown but they don’t pick up at the airport. So I accidentally went to the wrong hotel and my actual hotel was three blocks away. Mayla didn’t want to walk as her knee was acting up from the flight, I was embarrassed to call a human being for a 0.2 block ride. So it was a perfect solution. I’ll probably keep taking them while I’m here.

    I wonder how many turn into sales? There was the recent article about Cyber truck. How many reservations were made on it, but only like 5% turned to sales.

    Medicaid already pays providers pretty much nothing. Not sure where they could cut. All they could do without a revolution is to change the nature of the program to block grants, which I think are already part of it. We're never going to get out of the hole without cuts AND tax increases.

    @Mik said in So who did the insider trading?: Gosh, I don't imagine anything like this happened in the previous administration. Fair point, however I never got the feeling that previous administrations deliberately crashed the market. This time, it's not so clear.

    I’ve gotten quite good at ventriloquism recently. Scared the shit out of my urologist the other day.

    That is such a cool song. And good advice for those of us with stage fright.
