  1. My first GoA sighting was yesterday on FB from a person who fears witches, is no doubt Qtardish, and believes that the Jan 6 riots were necessary to stop a... kinda blurry... Jade 6 somehow mixed in with this. And to answer why I can see this person's posts? Sometimes it's fun to watch the geek bite the head off the chicken.
  2. "Where is your God now?"
  3. In my daily interactions, about 1 in 5 Republicans go full Trumpanzee. (yeah I know the rest probably think it.) When they do, it's like watching somebody drive a car over a cliff. There is no pause, no commas, no wondering "does this person maybe not agree with me?" Nope. Rattle rattle rattle crash boom bam. Not as bad as peak George Wallace fans. Those fuckers were a higher level of violence and wouldn't FWD>FWD>FWD>, they'd flat just kick your ass. The meanest ones are dead.
  4. What a bunch of good looking intelligent people.
  5. We all have an Asadullah. I am drafting behind three friendly rivals, copying whatever they do that outsells me, and also offering things they don't. See this watch?
  6. It's already got a predetermined bid-winner. It's just not us. But we could probably make a deal to do all the work for 1/4 of the pay.
  7. If you get it, you'll hunt it down and kill it. Hope it's nothing, but if it is, kick the shit out of it.
  8. I never meant to cause you any sorrow I never meant to cause you any pain
  9. Does your friend believe "the price is the price," or does he have non-vestigial haggle muscles?
  10. Common link is Louisiana under Huey P. Long.
  11. That's a subject for an entire thread. I'd say it's about as likely as a buggy whip revival, but I suspect somebody is making money right now selling buggy whips.
  12. Gotta share this Duolingo gem: Cha robh mi a cèilidh air do mhàthair a raoir. ~Kha row mee a kayly eth doe vah-heth a "writhe" "I was not visiting your mother last night."
  13. Pics of leg not showing up.
  14. My 2025 goals are to take what I made at art shows the past couple of years (sufficient to pay bills, and not much more) and triple the gross. Primarily through better organization, offering new prints, going to bigger and better shows, and working faster and more efficiently, like I did during the Pandemic. Since good shows cost more, as do other road warrior costs, maybe a reasonable goal is to double net profit. I am packing the calendar with multi-day events with high attendance. No more little local craft shows where a couple hundred bucks are a good day. Stretching out to neighboring states. Main concern is how to stay healthy. It's a beat-down if you're not in good shape. More planning, making new habits.
  15. Yep. During my Stage 4 "talk" Doc told me how she plans drug treatments, tldr it's entirely possible to live a very long happy life if A, B, and C, just like your odds if you didn't have cancer. My Mom commented a few years ago that my odds of long life may actually be better WITH cancer because I wasn't being careful at all before. But I mean, it's all the blink of an eye when said and done. You just dwell on the good days, and enjoy them. Who the hell wants to hang around for 200 years anyway.
  16. Trick question. There are no volcanoes in Hawaii.
  17. That line on the map was genius.
  18. The drug is gonna work.
  19. Great, and yes. Just not there. All we did was mill around, which is acceptable behavior. When a different plane of our unit landed, one officer, in Autopilot Moron Mode, called everybody into formation so he could bray acronyms at them. Turns out there's an old treaty in the Azores part of Hawaii where if you "form troops for battle" you get arrested. I was told he got a golf cart ride.
  20. You could coach up good people at the new place too, and not find out the hard way how small the world is. Also, maybe some of your old team make it over on their own, in a way where you don't burn bridges.
  21. I was in Hawaii just once for a couple of hours, long enough for a plane to refuel. Turns out the local name is not "Hawaii" but "The Azores." Didn't look like it does in the movies but it was OK.
  22. But he had CONTROL!
  23. Looks like the redawning of the Three Mikes era. But then again, never count out Alabama's ability to find a new way to cheat. Just because you wouldn't think of it, doesn't mean they won't.
