    Nice. I expect to get involved in some kind of election dispute. You can put up a political sign 30 days before an election and 24 hours after. The rule says sign - not flags. So we already have a couple Trump flags. A flag is not a sign. And, of course, no politics or religion allowed in the Facebook Group.

    When we were looking at granite for the kitchen, I knew we'd found the one we would end up purchasing when the salesperson said - " oh yes, that's from our platinum collection."

    @Horace said in Politics Getting In The Way: She’s probably one of those ceremonial “producers” brought on for name recognition. But the fact she has some name recognition from being an actress means she’ll also be subject to purity tests, and this was her attempt at passing those tests. She failed one set of purity tests when she came out as antivax. And since she’s not gay, she had to make up somehow…z

    Lots of YT comments from Daily Show fans in need of a fainting couch. Which is just a perfect encapsulation of that infantile fan base.

    Exactly what I was saying. Now they are on the noble crusade to make sure he's not the candidate - but only after they figured out that everyone else knew too. By eliminating the candidate that won the primaries fair and square they are now defending democracy. Disgusting.

    @LuFins-Dad said in "One chip challenge" gone wrong?: @taiwan_girl said in "One chip challenge" gone wrong?: @George-K Good analysis George. But eventually, the only food available to people will be a high protein smoothie. LOL Not at all. What’s the point of even having an FDA to provide approvals? Small bits of arsenic won’t kill most people, so let’s have a 1 chip challenge… Rat poison is used medically every day ...

    Where we used to live in Foxborough, the young lad who lived across the road used to spend a lot of time sitting in a car with a couple of buddies seemingly chatting away so much that windows got all smokey. Occasionally, I got a whiff of something vaguely Turkish in nature. It wasn't coffee. Then his buddies would drive home, at speed.

    I dont know but I think their data does not go back too far. Interest rates in the US were much much higher in the 70's and I would think that starting in 1929+, bankruptcies were much much much higher rate also. Yesterdays inflation/economic data was good, so it does look positive that there will be an interest rate decrease in the next few months.

    My guess is there could be a few weeks of 1-sided stupidity leading up to that little scene.

    An update. The crew turned out to be a recent high school grad who is starting a landscaping business. I'm not his first client, but I can tell he's still learning the process. Overall him and his guys worked hard on the job (re-jointing about a million brick pavers in the front yard and back), which was nice. I had to give him a few pointers on how to level the pavers and they applied the sealant too early which caused some issues, but overall it's better than what it was. Lesson learned on my part, though. Rookie mistake. They almost finished the job but needed to come back to finish a few spots in the backyard and seal, but I paid them the full balance after the first day. I'm sure they will be back (probably even today) but lesson learned never to pay the full amount until the job is 100% done as there is the random risk they just flee the job unfinished.

    @Axtremus Hypersonic missiles in Cuba. China and Taiwan. The current state and prognosis of the Ukraine War. The possibility of open war between Israel and Iran. A reversal of election integrity in Minnesota. Etc., etc., etc. That's just everyday news. Or is there something else?

    Great camera work too, btw. And video editing. Yeah @taiwan_girl looks like his original idea was to do this so he could get a job (which I'm sure will not be hard... wouldn't be surprised if Elon emails him directly and hooks him up), see the about page: https://bps.space/pages/about Good stuff.
