  1. Well I was married, so not much sex was being had.
  2. There's going to be a huge temptation on my part to say "well, Elon said you all were a bunch of parasites to rely on the government to show you when there's a tornado, so who am I to argue with Mr. Musk. Parasites must be dealt with, and if that means with tornados, then Inshallah."
  3. As somebody with relatives in Oklahoma and who is in Oklahoma at least once a year, they are, or were, pretty fucking proud of how accurate/timely the tornado stuff was getting, and that it was saving livings. Most of my relatives know somebody who has been affected by a tornado, were themselves affected, or have spent more than one night in a storm cellar because the threat was "near" (not like it is these days where they are drilling down to city neighborhoods practically with predictions). If they regress in their prediction capability back to the 1990s or earlier, holy fucking shit, a lot of people are going to die during the next outbreak because these days a lot of people will not head to shelter unless the storm chasers or meteorologists show them a radar with a debris ball bearing down on them. I'm going to laugh, as long as it's not little kids.
  4. I have a relative who was bitching about Tesla stock last week. He could be a shareholder, but probably not, but has defended Leon. I asked him why didn't he personally buy a Tesla - he just bought a Ford Edge for his wife, and with the package he picked, not too far off from a Tesla. Now the answer is that he only buys Fords (he fucking hates Chevy because Dale Earnhardt, I shit you not), but he tried to ignore it and bitched that liberals were buying Tesla but aren't now. I asked him if the Ford CEO called him a parasite for collecting Social Security, if he would continue buying Fords, and it was like "well the Ford CEO wouldn't do that" and I just pointed out that the Tesla CEO did call him that. Yeah, fun times.
  5. So looking at Elon's family...from People (https://people.com/all-about-elon-musk-children-11678749) When I was playing World of Warcraft 20 years ago, Elon Musk must have been in my guild because every one of those names were the names of my guild members.
  6. If Russia is making slight gains in Kursk but losing gains in Donetsk, sounds like they made the choice to funnel resources into Kursk and can't handle both at the same time time. It's not good for the Russians if they can't do both, not good in any way. It'd be like the US invading Mexico, Mexico then pushing towards San Antonio, the US having to pull troops away from invading Mexico to defend/retake areas southwest of San Antonio, etc.

  8. Good to know my batshit sister-in-law is in the legislature, I’m guessing that next we will mandate that schools tell kids that the earth could be flat, that we didn’t land on the moon, and the legislature will demand Paxton arrest Oprah Winfrey if she steps foot in Texas because she was apparently trafficking little kids to drink their adrenochrome to stay young.
  9. I wasn’t going to say anything, but since you edited it, I’d say you meant to post this in a thread over in the Help forum, and all I can say from personal experience is use a water-based lubricant because anything else is a fucking nightmare to get out of bedsheets,
  10. Let’s hope people who drive their Teslas to Austin FC games keep forgetting to activate it, otherwise the number of tire slashings will go down.
  11. Praise be unto Bolverk and His efforts to rid us of Big Time.
  12. Y'all are slipping on what is the Avengers of hot women (and men, Jude is..)
  13. Lot of conflicted emotions

  15. Yeah, because various Austin publications run similar stories every 5-10 years. The only new thing would be DNA-related stuff.
  16. They really did a good job of casting those two.
  17. I didn't care for his Star Trek work, but appreciate the Xena stuff and a lot of his other stuff. Crazy that I'm around his age.
  18. It really is. And they took Mon Mothma and made her one of my favorite SW characters ever. And she and Luthen are my favorite SW characters since the 1980s.
  19. I just want him to go into his Howard Hughes mode a bit early.
  20. We are leaving a power vacuum and France and Turkey are stepping up. Kind of embarrassing, but great that somebody is. China would love for Russia to collapse. When Putin dies, they are going to hoover up a lot of stuff. Not by sending troops over the border, but through financial means. China has also been dancing around crossing the line that would get them sanctioned, but they have happily tried to buy oil & gas, lumber, etc. at well below-market prices from Russia. Europe is the US's largest trading partner, and you nailed it - China wants to replace us.
  21. We've got a Ukrainian first grader at my school that my daughter is friends with. Great family as well. I'm hoping they are able to stay - they are from an area that was under threat. Thankfully the dad has a work visa (his company does business between Ukraine and the US) so maybe they get to stay.
  22. Musk said this morning that he wants to privatize Amtrak and the Post Office. If you are in a rural area...Musk is telling you to As you drive your ass 15 or 20 miles to get your mail. I would say he doesn't have a shot because, you now, the whole Constitution thing, but that doesn't matter. What does matter is a bunch of people in Congress will realize that their precious fucking campaign mailers won't be getting to their rural constituents in a timely manner and/or will cost their campaigns a lot more to mail, so they might try and push back.
