Umm hello, @Brisketexan are you working or something? You're supposed to make some variation on the same post every page in this thread, no? (Which I totally align with, so keep posting away!)

I dunno, seems to me like a trade of one young guy for one particularly bad health company CEO is a pretty good one, and the youngster knows/knew it. Five to one, baby One in five No one here gets out alive... May take a week And it may take longer They got the guns But we got the numbers Gonna win, yeah, we're takin' over Come on!

I'll say it if someone else won't. This is about how I feel.

Michigan with an even average QB would have been something this year.

And they just missed a delay by like 2-3 seconds on the Bears before the defensive hold. This is a masterpiece of reffing the score (except for the horse collar), but whatever if it keeps the game interesting.

To be fair, the hold by the Chicago RT on their TD was comically obvious and bad.

Well fuck, these projections are making it look like my prediction might be off.

Harris 538 - Trump 0 Let's fucking go.

Anyone got some of these we can borrow for that election day thread?

Me telling myself "don't CR it up, don't CR it up, don't CR it up with the obvious comparison"

Important to refute this. We have enough incompetent, entitled, ambitious children of wealth that at least one of them is going to roll double-sixes a few times in a row. Elon has. Good for him, until his wild heel turn over the last few years. But overall, we have far more evidence that he is an awful human being that happened to get lucky than we do evidence that he's a born leader or a genius or anything along those lines. He is like Eli Manning with two Super Bowls. Catch fire at the right time and place and voila(!).

This is such a weird, esoteric question, but there's a lot of law talkers on here and this seemed like the best thread. Is there some sort of maritime / admiralty law still outstanding that contemplates letters of marque? That is, could some outcast country like Russia or Iran issue a letter of marque to a Houthi or Somali leader? Would it still technically (but not actually, ayatollah bro, c'mon) need to be be recognized in some quarters? Seems like the type of thing Russia would do, given their love of technically complying with the law while doing dastardly things.

DoXxEd!! Got 'em! No more letter of marque for you, buddy! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Callis_(pirate)

Follow up: Just got a call from the hiring manager at a good opportunity that I'm getting an offer and that HR is putting a package together! It can happen! I just interviewed with her boss at the HQ (Euro company) this morning our time, so they moved quickly. And when it rains, it pours. On Friday, I got a call from the hiring manager at another letting me know I'd hear within a couple days after today's holiday and to keep an eye on my phone. Not something you typically do, in the manner she said it, if they're going with the other finalist. The former was through networking. I finally swallowed my pride and reached out to key people to grab coffee/a beer and to say that I was actively looking. Universally, the response was, "Why didn't you say something sooner? Let me pass your info around and put you in touch with x, y, and z." The latter was through AI-assisted applying. It really is a gauntlet out there, and you either need help from a person or AI. It's nothing like applying to the help wanted ads back in the day, I tell you that.
