  1. borrowing a sentiment from someone else here, there are only so many times you can tell someone the stove is hot before you have to let them touch the stove. that's where we are at. we've been trying for a nearly a decade to warn anyone and everyone about what this man plans to do. they did the opposite. there's little we can do anymore other than sit back and watch the carnage and hope we don't get caught up in the bullshit. spoiler: we will
  2. I would be forced to give credit where due, but I ain't holding my breath just yet
  3. apropos to little from the current discussion, but I love the realtime gaslighting of this election was about real issues and not identity politics when 100% of commercials and ads I saw from Republican candidates were about trans people, illegal immigrants, or some other 100% identity politics topic. but we're supposed to believe this was a referendum on the economy? I don't get it
  4. like picasso art or gg allin art?
  5. wow, a 'but obama' in the year of our lord, 2024
  6. you mean white straightriot men started losing sight of their dream ethnostate and aligned with a malignant narcissist rapist felon to answer their heretical prayers? is that what you meant?
  7. I wouldn't at all be surprised if he's moved. I think he's a fine player, I just don't think he is a good fit. He's too tweener. We either need a big guy to move power forwards off the puck ala Hakanpaa or a speedy, deft defenseman who can puck jack speedier fowards. Dumba is right in the middle. Too slow to catch fast wingers and too small to bully power forwards. hopefully they either figure out the best way to utilize him or cut bait and trade him. clock is ticking now
  8. Serious question is serious
  9. sad part is those people are likely sleeping better than the rest of us
  10. I just commented to the fiance that I don't think I've ever seen us score 6 in a 1st period. Turns out we never had before. Good shit. Needed this today
  11. That sucked. But I guess we're forever part of history. Lol
  12. Stars will lose this tilt, but Benn kicked the shit out of Lowry in that fight. Will be fun to see how the next meeting goes
  13. I'm here for the schadenfreude. You have sowed. Let's see what you reap
  14. watched on delay as I play pool league on Thursdays. good win, even if it was lowly Chi
  15. I got the bat signal y'all. lol as an architect/design-builder - and this is not ego at play here as many on this board can attest with me - you get what you pay for in this kind of process. It's best to set a realistic budget and design and build within that framework, rather than trying to shoehorn a design into your budget. I tell anyone going through a traditional design-bid-build process to budget 10-20% of their budget for soft costs(surveys, drawings, soils testing, engineering, permits, etc) and the rest for construction. It is way, way, way cheaper to figure things out on paper than it is in the field. A tight, fleshed-out drawing set will pay for itself many times over. *steps off soapbox* also, if you're building within Austin or any metro, you will be required to hire an architect and engineer for a 3-story dwelling. Technically you would need to in the county too, but there is generally no one to enforce it.
  16. he went harder at the abortion vote, which likely had ripple effects on this amendment. oh well, keep trying, I guess
  17. except that it wouldn't. they would simply have new competition. but in my experience even when states decrim it takes a while to adjust. they would simply adjust along with the new laws. I don't abide that as a legitimate reason to be against decrim
  18. which past miscreant is this one?
