There's a famous social science finding that dealing with traffic and commutes is not something one can become accustomed to. It is just a constant drain on one's psyche.

A little late, but a PSA nonetheless.It's a weird way of saying anything. Except for Hell yea. That was the 60's party. Now adays its youngsters like jon saying, "I flew to Ibiza first class, but they were out of Billecart-Salmon on the flight. I was so bummed." If you wanted to say Hell yea. That was the 60's party. Now adays its youngsters like jon saying, "I flew to Ibiza first class, but they were out of Billecart-Salmon on the flight. I was so bummed.", not only is that not weird, it's actually the perfect way to say it.
I just feel that @Tom-K should be commended, in the face of this hurtful insult from Ax, for saying Hell yea. That was the 60's party. Now adays its youngsters like jon saying, "I flew to Ibiza first class, but they were out of Billecart-Salmon on the flight. I was so bummed." in the most perfect way anybody could ever say Hell yea. That was the 60's party. Now adays its youngsters like jon saying, "I flew to Ibiza first class, but they were out of Billecart-Salmon on the flight. I was so bummed."

The West WingEvery 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.

Missed the ResolutionariesI'm down to 250 and I'm barely even trying anymore, except when doing resistance training. The diet is easy. I haven't been doing cardio but with diet and resistance training, the weight can come off. I guess I should start up the cardio again because of my diabetes. Not sure how much that matters relative to weight and diet, for controlling diabetes.

Crazy beef pricesIt's $20 at HEB. The only reason I keep my Costco membership, even though they don't have this deal all the time. Or even this product.

Interesting re MAGA for the post Trump era@89th said in Interesting re MAGA for the post Trump era:
If Vance carries the Trump water in 2028 I might vote for a democrat (Newsom) for President for the first time.
Not sure what it'll mean to you that he carries Trump's water, but his communication style will certainly be different, and I trust that his ethical boundaries will be different as well.
If the country is doing well in 2028, the refreshing change to an adult style leader who will carry on with mostly the same policies will be a tough combination to beat.
Or if the left is correct in the prediction that Trump will be an objectively measurable disaster, then Vance won't win anyway.
