  1. Same, and the occasional Canada Goose (don't tell Trump). Not sure if it's the same ones, but we sure seem to be on their flight path.
  2. He's such a braggart cunt. This is why I have hated him since I became aware of him.
  3. Moreover, there are plenty of peaceful folks that were not "harmless." Ghandi, Jesus Christ (although I suppose Pops is capable of great violence), MLK, Bonhoeffer. He acts as though he's spouting undiscovered main truths, when it's just inaccurate memeshit only undiscovered because his uncritical followers are morons.
  4. Well, I'm gonna assume that the problem was they could 't saddle the poor part with the bulk of the $700M.
  5. I mean, it was an office in the Pentagon, which is the DoD HQ. It was already aligned with DOD strategic priorities. This, of course, means something else entirely.
  6. This is the Radio Clash on pirate satellite Orbiting your living room Cashing in the Bill of Rights
  7. I wonder outside of "big-time" college sports, how much a coaching staff really monitors academics. Although it is a sound idea generally, I think the stakes of ineligibility and the optics of graduation rates at "big-time" schools make it more of an issue than at smaller institutions. I'm relatively certain, though, that the time commitment is substantial even at smaller schools. And that can be a plus (forced time management) or a minus Ibig distraction from academics). Perhaps it might be more of a sure thing to look into "student support services" at prospective schools. As far as I know, most schools have some kind of assistance for the "learning disabled." If any of that survived the DEI hysteria.
  8. ART OF THE DEAL!
  9. He didn't get in to Columbia, obvs.
  10. And, they really haven't innovated all that much. After whinging about patents and how everything should be free, they flipped the script and all their shit was unpatentable. And it took most of them a decade or more to figure out how to generate revenue and profit from their bullshit. For a long time, I have observed that these software-silicon valley types have a really over-inflated sense of their own worth and a strong belief that the rules of business, and the world, and life just don't apply to them. Note that the real innovators at Google/Alphabet, Apple, etc. aren't really part of this. It's just social media and payment system/crypto bros that are part of this. Don't think I'm giving them a pass, but they do their corrupt, evil shit in the old-fashioned corporate way of lobbying and influence peddling.
  11. Same picture, yes. But a bunch of innocent federal workers don't get paid and even more services curtailed, if temporarily.
  12. Fuck all this shit for real. I gave up on the wackamole that is cable/streaming sports. Live stats for me. I pretty much fuckin hate TV now.
  13. It's a bit too factual to be a sermon. No one gives a shit about the well-being of defense contractors, or their profitability, except to the extent they employ people.
  14. And said prices would reduce under them. And, I'll say it again, if tariffs are truly effective -- stopping US "dependence" on imports -- collection of them will dwindle to nothing.
  15. Unsurprising, I guess, but Howard is proving to be a complete shill.
  16. Well, let's take a look I think there's a consensus that we overspend on defense. One of the multiple reasons we don't cut our defense spending is the number of people employed and the economic activity it generates. Defense exports were nearly 30% of our defense budget in 2023. So, Trump's foreign policy is going to severely curtail foreign purchases of our defense products, reducing activity in that sector. Yet our governmental defense spending will remain untouched and likely grow. Sounds like a win-win to me.🙄
  17. Why is Himmler, er Hanania, posting that?
  18. What's great is he has Mrs. Doom (Doomletmom?) saying "nutsack" at the dinner table.
  19. Also, -25, keep your small blocks consistent. (351 v. 350 v. 360).
  20. Or dragged out behind the barn and shot.
  21. Are you going 12sp or can you? SRAM doesn't even seem to make 11sp anymore. But to illustrate my point, here are the gears on the NX-level cassette 11,13,15,17,19,22,25,28,32,36,42,50 versus DeOre 10-12-14-16-18-21-24-28-33-39-45-51 Seems like minor stuff, but works for me, big-time bro, and there's kind of a similar consensus on mtbr.
  22. The SSA Service Center that they just closed ten of? Nice.
