    “I’ve watched every Super Bowl, including the 9 where the Patriots had the league’s best quarterback, Tom Brady. He was also dating a super famous hot girl. I also watched the one with the Bucs! But I’m out on this Super Bowl because I’m tired of Pat Mahomes/Travis Kelce/Taylor Swift!”

    Just a quick reminder: states in rebellion will not be allowed to participate in national elections. Abraham Lincoln out front shoulda told ya.

    Also, there’s some pretty strong thought that modern cuckoldry is form of male domination depending on how it’s practiced and consent/lack there of.

    Gotdamn the L1011 were badass motherfuckers. It's a pity they couldn't make the economics work. An engineers plane.

    To me, unless he is physically in jail at the time of swearing in, and that somehow physically prevents him from taking office, it's a non-factor. There is no Peak Trump.

    Just make sure you squeeze a little loctite on the bolts before you re torque em.

    I don't see how they would let Boeing fail. I'm not arguing the merits, I'm just saying, they didn't let Chrysler fail. And Chrysler sucks. But yes, I would think the shareholders would be slaughtered and new management would come forth. The real loser here is SWA. They are really staring at the abyss.

    What's wild about what United is saying, and I've heard this elsewhere: People don't want 737's. They actually want Airbuses, but the delay in airframe delivery due to demand forces people into buying new 737's, or they are rejiggering their lineups to more of a tiered play system, instead of a do it all 737-Max and a 777 for international. American recently announced they are getting more Embraer's to be their regional carriers. All of which is ironic: The pre McDonnell Douglas Boeing sort of set up the tiered Airline model: 737 for your regional jumps, 757 for your long domestics. 767 for your cross country/short international, 777 for your global, 747 for heavy global/superlong haul to the southern hemisphere. The 747 became obsolete when the new GE engines could allow 777 to do the same thing for much cheaper.

    Marc Thiessen, who I generally think is a tool, makes a good point about Trump 2.0: Right now, it's basically a TruthSocial/Inside the Beltway/Talking Heads thing. Once Americans, who have no real passion for Biden(and never really did), but aren't actually following the race beyond the headlines, get a full fall of this version of Trump, with the belligerent, incoherent rants, saying he's going to become a dictator, his gross, disheveled physical appearance, etc. a lot of tired, unenthusiastic voters are going to remember why they voted against him in 2020.

    Having just watched a family member pass away alone, I can 100% state now that I have more in the rear view mirror than in front: I prioritize true companionship with a life partner with strong health care power of attorney over wild kinky shit 10/10 times.

    So this basically sounds like old school French side pieces: spouse kinda/explicitely know there’s another man/woman, choose to live with it as long as you keep it on the DL and don’t cross friend streams and don’t come home smelling like whore/dick?

    They already offered me a lol price and I bounced. that’s why I’m asking here. I figured I was looking at Chrono24, but Inthought I asked. If anyone is interested in an 856 UTC, hit me up.

    So at the risk of violating protocol, I have a Sinn I’m looking to sell. What are my options if I don’t have any rep on Reddit or watchuseek? I’d appreciate thoughts, can take things dm, etc, given I haven’t posted on this thread in a while.

    99.9% of open relationships end badly, as far as I can tell. Call it whatever the fuck you want, at somepoint, somebody in the love triangle decides they want to spend more time/be fucked by one of the two choices more than the other, and then things go south.

    As somebody who had a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a second in the sun in sports writing, I'm pretty confident in sayin SI did itself no favors during the Deadspin era by being stodgy garbage. And I say that as somebody who did most of my writing as eulogies of baseball players from the golden era. They were late to the importance of Moneyball, the changing CFB recruiting and conference landscape, how we consume sports, just everything. In some ways, the O.G. swimsuit issues are reflective of their problems: They didn't really adapt even to ESPN in the 90s. They just kept pumping out swimsuit merch as soft core spank bank material instead of innovating their business model to be multi-media. By the time they realized they needed to adapt, societally we had all moved on. Easy internet porn and the death of the Silent Generation and Older boomers did the rest. This Family Guy quip kinda nails it:

    Also: if you know anything about Swift, she doesn’t do anything, ANYTHING, commercially for free. She’s basically printing money for the Owners in merch sales, and trust me, that at some level grinds her gears since she isn’t getting a slice.

    What was doubly funny about it was Diggs has complained incessantly about not getting the ball enough.
  21. Bateshorn
    This. Do people on this page not understand that Taylor Swift is probably the most famous person in the world, other than possibly King Charles?

    There was always one asshat at Bates who would rock shorts and a fleece vest through Christmas break. Usually single digits would force them into pants and a jacket come January.

    747-8 are about the most robust modern airplane you can fly, outside of maybe a C-130. There are the flying equivalent of an overbuilt post and beam house.

    I lived around the block from Cedar Creek in Eanes growing up. My mom would basically say “I hope you didn’t lose your rain coat “ before driving off to work and leaving me to walk/bike to school. Gen X is built different.
