    I'll second his commendation. I thought it was pretty spot on.

    I'd imagine allowing sparklers (fireworks) near the sound proof foam padded ceiling is against even the most neutral swiss fire code.

    I just spent a month in NYC visiting my daughter. Mamdani wasn't mentioned once. Nobody cares. Nobody ever will.

    I’ll be looking forward to the extra week of summer but that explains my son’s unusual pre-labor day start in the fall.

    Every season is a new story focused on a new aspect of crime or law enforcement or media in Baltimore. I recall liking some seasons much more than others. Like a lot of people, I thought Omar was the most fun. He was also the least realistic character. More of a superhero. I guess that makes my tastes banal.

    @89th said in DNC buries the 2024 Autopsy Report: I'd imagine most folks want: respectful leader, strong national identity, rule of law with pragmatic sympathy, fiscally responsible, moderately social... or the magic wand of: keep me safe, keep the rule of law just and blind, keep my 401k healthy, and bring back affordable prices. "Wanting" is one thing, actually putting in the time and effort to adequately evaluate the options and choose the option that has the best chance of getting them what they want is something else. Heck, it requires much time and effort to develop one's intellect to the point where one can adequately evaluate the options, many fail even at that.

    Where I live (city, urban), when seen, the bears are caught, then often relocated far away. Older bears are rarely euthanized. We’re quite accustomed to seeing the wildlife officers and bear containers out during berry season. Saying this, cougars are a different story. Nasty mean, silent attackers, and if you hear them you’d confuse them with chirping birds (or so I’m told). We’ve friends who are building a cabin just south of YYC. They have a family of cougars who took up residence in the foundation. It’s about 2 years now and the house still isn’t finished. Those cats must remain close by though. I’ve seen video of deer walking across the path leading up to their place followed by 4 cougars ripping across afterwards. I’d be scared stiff to be out there.
