  1. From the article: "Agents in unmarked SUVs rounded up people in vans outside a Home Depot and gas station that serves a breakfast popular with field workers." It's OK to say tacos. We all love tacos.
  2. He already has. On multiple occasions.
  3. Pilot and co-pilot have a side hustle as sommeliers so they were allowed to come back.
  4. Republicans better stop calling the border a "disaster" or else a Trump EO might unintentionally block his own border wall funding.
  5. I'm extremely hesitant to question you on this, but it seems a little hard to believe. Oddly, I can't really find much after a more-than-cursory internet search. It seems there have been numerous accidents in the Panama Canal, some of which apparently weren't even known about until they mapped the seafloor fairly recently. I can't find any articles that mention the canal was even temporarily shut down from any incidents though. Maybe the vessel would have to be sunk in a very particular place? The only thing I can definitely say based on my searching is that this is the premise of numerous fictional novels.
  6. Maybe it's too early in the day for me, so I could be misunderstanding you. That would also be when Trump was in control.
  7. All non-DEI employees must be pissed they don't get all this paid vacation time.
  8. I laughed at first, but ya know, it's kind of a good question. Was the money seized from "Silk Road" as an organization? Or was it really Ross's money? I don't know if Silk Road was ever actually incorporated, so it could essentially just be a d/b/a. In that case, I could see the argument that a full pardon means he would be entitled to all of his seized belongings being returned. But I'm just speculating here. Don't think there's any previous case to compare this to.
  9. Probably bought the pee tapes from Putin
  10. You probably are being overdramatic, but a lot of us are. Think we’ll be like this for a very long time. Unfortunately, all my damage came from my roof failing rather than broken pipes, so I just get to lay awake all night listening for indoor waterfalls
  11. As someone with a significant portion of family from Louisiana, I can assure you they are quite proud of their history of corruption. Huey Long is a gotdamn treasure. I think every MAGA in Louisiana even did a double take on that.
  12. They’re probably frantically looking around the internet for a freeze frame where Kamala’s hand is in the air so they can both sides it.
  13. You also don't have to buy cage free eggs. But yeah, prices have really shot up quite a bit. The average in November was $3.65, then they went to $4.15 in December. Averages for January obviously aren't out yet, but the cheapest dozen available at our HEB is $4.71 (there's a sketchy looking option at $4.12, but they're out of stock anyway).
  14. They never needed cover to do that
  15. I wasn’t all that impressed with Roma Norte. It has a distinctly Americanized feel to it.
  16. Light jacket is perfectly fine.
  17. City Centro hotel on Uraguay
  18. Got in yesterday morning. Staying in the city center, but we wandered pretty far out yesterday. This place is great so far. Not at all what I expected! Well, other than my Spanish not being nearly as good as I thought. Turns out you can’t just drop English words in randomly down here like at home
  19. Well then maybe the son is the guy we need to be talking to
  20. $13,000 probably isn’t enough to bribe your way out of conscription
  21. A lot of soffit is a plastic-like material. I'd imagine it doesn't take much for embers to melt through that stuff and create bigger and bigger openings. Really only takes one ember getting through
  22. Being prepared for the portal includes retention just as much as, if not more than, it does acquisition.
