  1. Soccer moms, or as the Brits say, "yummy mummies," "slut out" with yoga pants and fitness wear. The spandex pants, rings on four fingers, long-ass no-doubt extended hair, is another thing altogether. Surprised she isn't wearing some form of fuckme pumps.
  2. The Calumet thing is not from the book, that's Kubrick. So that's not "canon." I believe King has multiple universes, other than our own, that leak into ours, sometimes benignly, sometimes malevolently, sometimes a bit of both. The Overlook was some kind of portal into an evil universe. Probably same with Derry and the sewers. The same evil universe? Not sure.
  3. A valid point. But others have valid points that this kind of fall-off is unexpected and other teams of the caliber we consider ourselves to be or that we aspire to don't have this kind of fall-off. Also, that our OL was good, but not good enough the past couple of years has been a lingering fact. It hampered Ewers, the run game, and the red zone pretty dramatically the past couple of years.
  4. He's actually pissing down his leg. Uncontrollably.
  5. Victuals, even.
  6. Not exactly stanning for those tradwives is she? Is there a such thing as a beringed, tight-pants tradslut?
  7. In a way you have to feel a bit sorry for Usha. By most accounts, JD was a lot less of a shithead until he went off to Peter Thiel's gay boot camp.
  8. As said many times before, a poor person's idea of luxury and taste. Grimy little pimp.
  9. Yeah, get just a little ways out of the city/industrial areas, it's kinda nice. Not sure it's cheap, though.
  10. This probably belongs here.
  11. Yeah, as ctj said, it's hard to imagine that a concussed, fuzzy-headed Arch is an improvement. But his failure to date is so bizarre that anything is possible, I suppose.
  12. One sort of positive here is that the executive lacks the ability to immediately change the copyright law, to "intervene" in AI cases. And, even though this executive loves to assert power he lacks, he would have to do so in courts of law, where thus far, he has been least effective, other than on the shadow docket at SCOTUS. They're going to have a hell of a time getting private-party copyright cases on the shadow docket at SCOTUS.
  13. I should add that I feel pretty confident that CDC is going to have a very realistic meeting with Sarkisian and point out what a disaster this season is and demand some changes beyond "I'll fix it Chris, trust me."
  14. Well, there's a big problem here and that is that CDC does not unilaterally control the HFC. He didn't hire Sark, or it wasn't his choice. Conversely, he doesn't control the firing of Sark. For one thing, the purse strings he controls are inadequate to the job. About all he can do is make recommendations, to Sark and to those who do control the hiring and firing of the HFC.
  15. Not sure where to put this. https://prospect.org/2025/10/31/progressive-tech-group-asks-trump-to-block-ai-copyright-cases/ The Chamber of Progress, a self-styled “progressive” industry trade group supported by most of the biggest tech platforms, has urged the Trump administration to intervene in a litany of copyright cases involving artificial intelligence firms, to try to stop authors and publishers from having their work used for training AI models without permission. More of these techbro assholes trying to argue that the law doesn't apply to them because they're so fucking special.
  16. Yep, this exacerbates the "what do we do with the morons" problem. And also the training of non-morons. AFAIK, being a scribe is an introduction to medicine for prospective medical students. As is an internship in a law office or engineering firm. Their work isn't essential, but it's not useless either, and is invaluable to the trainee.
  17. I think the more important thing for Sark is to get assistants, by whatever title, that will help him see and honestly evaluate the talent (and talent needs) and capability of the offense. Something is wrong there. That something could be Sark himself and it's unfixable, but I tend to doubt it.
  18. In central Dallas, orienting your antenna according to this or a similar data source yields good results. https://www.antennasdirect.com/transmitter-locator.html For total newbs like Bob, when you're touching your antenna, as to move it around, reception generally improves because you become a large-area antenna yourself. But if you're just moving it around randomly, when you let it go, reception goes to shit. Point it at least in the compass direction of the station's antenna, if not the precise azimuth and it will stay good when you let go of it.
  19. One really shouldn't use the term "pocket awareness" and Quinn Ewers in the same paragraph, unless one declares Quinn's to be abysmal. Arch's problem is not pocket awareness. His ability to stay upright in traffic far exceeds Quinn's. It's just that he doesn't make the throws even with the extra time.
  20. Serious attempts to quantify the "cost" of unlawful immigrants mostly say they don't cost, they add. Let's get one thing clear, undocumented immigrants are disqualified from most all government benefits.
  21. And every Trumper to a man jack will tell you that W is a war criminal. For doing exactly this.
  22. It actually says "military installations." But that's fine, because he'll make up more bullshit that the Venezuelan military is in cahoots with TdA or some other narco-terrorist organization. And now that he is going to commit undeniable acts of war, what's his plan for the humanitarian problem this is going to cause?
  23. It is what a lawyer would do. But not sure its actually necessary for a small claims deal. Here, you're trying to get Hyundai to come to its senses. And yeah, outside Texas I imagine small claims courts are more similar than different, but this generalized non-advice is for Texas small claims courts.
  24. If you are dealing with a particular corporate entity that you can discover from correspondence, they probably have a registered agent in Texas that you can look for/up here. https://comptroller.texas.gov/taxes/franchise/account-status/search It's probably Hyundai Motor America. Small claims courts tend to contemplate personal service in the county they sit, by constable. But I think they'll do it by first class mail, CMRR, to in state registered agents, also. They are somewhat likely to settle with you rather than have to hire an attorney to make an appearance and actually defend. But you never really know.
  25. “Businesses deserve a level playing field where government contracts are earned by performance and best value — not race or sex quotas,” Hancock wrote. But what about political donors? https://www.citizen.org/news/public-citizen-report-abbott-donors-draw-nearly-1-billion-in-no-bid-state-contracts/
