    I have no interest in a parasocial relationship with Colbert and her husband, but to each their own.

    @taiwan_girl said in Winter Olympics memes: I dont get it. LOL The torchbearer responsible for lighting the huge torch at the Olympics forgot what day it was.

    It might be a good adaptation to AI job losses if the enormous profits being predicted come to pass. but then obsolescence doesn't pay much.

    Hell no. I'd be much more likely to go to the Carolinas or Alabama.

    Interesting. Then if he can do it and land it square then he should go for it. Dazzle the judges and raise the bar.

    I’m an equal opportunity chicken eater. The day before it was Colonel Sanders’, so the next day’s chicken meal was General Tso’s. I may go for Chicken Maharaja next.

Opened in 2006 in the semi-autonomous casino city, the hotel was known for its opulent “golden pathway”, showcasing dozens of one-kilogram bars of gold studded into its entrance hall floor.

    They probably just used that as an excuse. They figured you stole it from a truck.

    @Mik Thank God they don't lob bombs at each other. No, the Thirty Years War pretty much put an end to the Christian sectarian bloodshed arising from the Reformation, at least in Protestant Northern and Central Europe, when clergy finally had to accept that the reigning monarch was top dog in the realm. In Catholic areas the church authority, albeit weakened by the rise of absolute monarchies, lingered until Napoleon came along and closed the case on the political aspirations of church in a secular state once and for all.

    Woody Allen is in the Epstein files but I refuse to believe he’s the kind of guy who would cheat on his daughter.

    I bet some cash on the Seahawks doing well this weekend. Leading first half, leading by 10.5, winning, etc... It simplifies sports betting sort of. I also put some cash on Newsom and Vance winning their nominations. I wish there was one about NASA not landing on the moon until at least 2030 (2-3 years late) as I would take that in a heartbeat. Anyway, just did a little cash for fun. Similar to the sport betting apps I'm sure I'll delete it soon enough as it feels (as it is) like gambling.

    Trump deletes his Truth Social post: US President Donald Trump has removed a social media video which included a racist clip depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes. …. Republican Senator Tim Scott - who is black - called for the president to remove the post, describing it as "the most racist thing I've seen out of this White House". The White House initially defended the clip as an "internet meme video" and told critics to "stop the fake outrage". https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce8r8y78g10o I hope this time that Trumpigula’s impulsive self inflicted damage is permanent.
