I talked to my neighbor earlier tonight. Me: hey Him: hey Me: what’s up Him: you are very good looking Me: I know. No homo Him: no homo Me: how about that signal thing Him: don’t care Me: ok Him: we are having a normal conversation, fit for relaying online to provide evidence for a viewpoint Me: I agree.

Yeah but the approach was different. Trump is trying to cut costs and chase headlines, Clinton took the approach (that I've mentioned here) where he tasked a couple hundred top civil servants to report back in 6 months with recommendations on what can be cut to make the government still perform its duties but in a more efficient fashion, and then Clinton went to congress to seek legislation to make it happen.

@Jolly said in 464 lbs and he ran a 5.86: If he lost 50 pounds, he'd still outweigh centers and guards by 100 pounds. If drafted, he would be the heaviest ever drafted by over 80lbs. He actually came in as a freshman at 315 or some such. They actually put the weight on to him. Frankly, I think they screwed up. The guy would be quicker at 350, and would still be a helluva lot of mass to move.

She'll be rewarded.

Second time you've mentioned George in two days. Interesting...

@jon-nyc said in $2.41 and $4: Paid 8.99 for large. Same high end brand I usually buy. No XLs last two or three trips. Umm, paying for large and XL what? Asking for a friend.

@Doctor-Phibes said in Your idea for a polymarket topic here.: @89th said in Your idea for a polymarket topic here.: Musk likes his company names. He should name it Otto Mobiles, named after Nicolaus Otto who invented the first gas engine. How about The Wankel? Named after the famous German engine designer, Felix Wankel. Although that name might rub people up the wrong way, it would be quite appropriate. Maybe something more American like: Wankler

@89th said in Your afternoon entertainment: My favorite part (hard to pick) was the "I don't believe I've ever read the book 'The case for reparations'" and he said "Here you tweet: I'm going to take the day off to read 'The case for reparations'" Well, presumably there are many people who say they're going to read a book and then never get around to read the book.

The Greenlanders should make sure they send Hegseth extra bottles of Whiskey… up their chances of getting a drunk text from him with invasion plans.

Anchor is up. Quality is said to be very good. Distractor alert! Beauregard is seeking attention by proving once again he has nothing of consequence or value to say on the matter of tariffs and threats against Canada.

@Doctor-Phibes said in There's Maga, then there's MAGA: @Renauda said in There's Maga, then there's MAGA: @Doctor-Phibes said in There's Maga, then there's MAGA: Isn't she swell? If hags can be described as such. I guess Jolly sees something that eludes the rest of us fussier folk. She actually appears swollen. The hag shares with Putin a certain early hominid countenance. Almost australopithecine in appearance.

Tugboats are like everything else in life--the wheels go round and round and it chugs down the track.

@xenon said in Meanwhile, in India...: Celebrity politicians and demagoguery is the norm in India. Bollywood actors and top tier sports athletes often go into high level politics. The weirdest one for me is India's good friend and neighbour to the north. Who would have imagined that Imran Khan, the spectacularly good 1980's cricketer and Oxford-educated playboy would become this anti-west figure? Did he really dislike Ian Botham that much? It's not as if it's an occupation without danger.

Problem here is I need to put the CC in Spanish for Mayla. No problem for me, and I’ll catch myself reading them when the audio gets shitty. But doesn’t help the boy. He got really frustrated during Pulp Fiction and even Escape From Alcatraz. In his case it’s obviously not age-related hearing loss. But dependence on CCs could be part of it.

Nothing a few reasonable messengers can't fix, though. Maybe. They'll have to divest themselves of the miserably neurotic educated white female contingent. Good luck with that.

Just want to see how close we can get to "100% American made" for automobiles. The "no foreign worker" part is optional, as clearly qualified by the "if you want" verbiage right up front.

Yeah, but the stories about people who chase their dreams, they are so compelling.
