I’ve read five, including 1 and 2. Lots of people have difficulty getting through Blood Meridian. But I grew up on the streets and very little phases me.

Nice!

As far as I know that's it. It has to do with guaranteed money and gives them an out on some of it if he doesn't play for whatever reason. In a year where it's put up or shut up, it's a bad look for team and player.

@jon-nyc said in Mildly interesting: [image: 1749999617773-img_5848.jpeg] Marin County I get. But the Tetons and parts of western Colorado? An artifact due to low population density I suppose.

Until it can make me self-sufficient I'll pass.

Yes, but I put "universities" in the title anyway because I expect to see similar reports for other universities in the near future.

@LuFins-Dad said in Minnesota state reps shot in their homes: The suspect is a Tim Walz appointee, and was apparently carrying No King flyers. So it seems likely the guy is probably an extreme left whacko or an extreme right whacko. Crazy world we're living if it's all the same.

@Axtremus said in The gift for the one who has everything: https://www.burntimpressions.com/ https://www.hammacher.com/product/selfie-toaster?srsltid=AfmBOorJuxHtgeZlSjA4iDRwgoJwAus8TupZV0LwUBXLuRMbZJe_JgPq Disappointed that I cannot find anything like this on Amazon, and the reviews on the Hammacher site are many years old. Leads me to believe that the product is not actually available today. I think Ax wanted one real bad.

Let’s say it really is a “one way street,” and will remain so for another 5 to 10 years. Is that really a problem? They produce stuff that we don’t want to produce ourselves, they give us stuff, we give them papers or numbers that end up in a bunch of electronic ledgers. Is that really a problem for us? Another bone to pick — it seems the article talks only about trade imbalances concerning goods, and overlooked services.

Any casualty? [imagine here a Sec. Pete poster with "Miss Me Yet?" captioned below it.]
