    This concept of Wuv confuses and infuriates us!

    It’s not that. On the offside call, the left guard was falling backward before the Chiefs player came out of his stance. And the Eagles right guard never sets. He’s almost always still turning forward when the ball is snapped.

    She’s a live oak limb nightmare. It’s giving me PTSD from Arborgeddon 2023.

    Eagles OL false starts almost every single play and has yet to draw a flag. I’ve never seen anything quite like it.

    Do you want Ameros? Because this is how we get Ameros.

    Annual Austin ice storm 1 - Klan 0.

    There absolutely should be message board consequences for starting hyperbolic freak-out threads and pissing your pants in fear of OMG RIOTS!!! every time a few kids throw a rock through a window. Yet here you still are.

    I just spent 3 hours cleaning up about 1/10th of the tree debris in my Austin yard. I don’t have time to get into a tax policy debate with you or to explain how stupid it is to defend Texas’s taxes by saying they’re as high as anywhere else in the US, as if trickle down idiocy was somehow limited to our fair state. But I do have time to say one thing before I leave my dark, cold house to spend the next 2 hours of daylight clearing tree branches: go fuck yourself.

    This city and state need to start investing in basic infrastructure. Which means we need to pay more taxes / higher prices for utilities. There’s no such thing as a free lunch. All the money we saved by not paying to maintain trees around power lines has cost us in inconvenience and hassle. And we end up paying for that tree maintenance eventually. No politics, etc., but this country’s (and especially this state’s) addiction to bare minimum taxes at the expense of basic maintenance have fucked us. It was always myopic, greedy bullshit. Trees over power lines are just the canary in the coal mine. Other neglected infrastructure is rotting on a longer timescale.

    Water company: “Please preserve water.” Armybrat: “Got it. Stockpiling as much water for myself as possible.”

    Only approximately 90 hours until he breaks our record from 2021.

    Weather Channel app is now showing a slow but steady ramp up in temperature starting around 8 PM. Here’s hoping that hourly forecast is more accurate than the 15 others I’ve seen throughout the day.

    It’s a great song to learn how to play one note, over and over again.

    It will be a dynamic situation even with warmer air / water. When it first begins raining, the initial rain will add force to the tree limbs before the warmer water has had time to melt any of the accumulated ice. That will make matters worse until enough of the ice melts that the remaining ice + rain is less heavy than the initial ice accumulation. How long that takes depends on the amount of rain and the temperature.

    Voluntarily driving or walking outside in Austin right now is stupid. It’s practically raining tree limbs. Stay off the roads.

    Identify solos you like listening to and learn them. The first one will be hard and it will take you a lot of work to get it right. So pick one that is manageable and take it in bite sized chunks. Find tabs and YouTube lessons to help you work out the details, but also try to figure out as much as you can by ear. Eventually with enough practice, it gets easier and easier. You learn enough of other guitarists’ solos and suddenly you’ll find yourself fluent in working through the scales in very different ways. And then you can start adding your own flourishes to the mix.

    Good idea. Might I suggest: “Panicky Fascist Preemptively Pees Himself.”

    You are not the only one. I keep checking the temperature forecast and thinking “What the fuck is everyone freaking out about?”

    “It’s instructive to consider why.” He’s so close!

    You raise a great point. Cops kill only a couple hundred Americans each year. As you note, the probability that police would murder Tyre Nichols is so small that it’s not even worth worrying about. Not sure why everyone’s getting so excited about such an unlikely event.
  22. BrickHorn
    Wrong. The biggest predictor is your living status. All of those killed by cops were alive at the time. The second biggest predictor is your species. Almost all of those killed by cops are dogs, followed by humans.

    Huh. Weird that @Incredulity didn’t start a thread about this particular act of vandalism.

    There are something like 1,000 NFL players and approximately 95% are vaccinated. That’s a sample size of 950 vaccinated NFL players, yet there’s only one death that is being attributed to the vaccine. That data reveals the obvious truth: the NFL hired 949 other body doubles to cover up all the deaths.
