  1. I imaging some sort of big push into the playoffs where he continues his earlier pace / he’s on fire. He’ll likely get dinged up or something in the playoffs only to do his best Kirk Gibson impression.
  2. Is it me or do you guys feel that the writers of 2024 are going to throw another curve ball that swings the pendulum back towards Trump and the republicans?! IDk. This good news stuff has got me worried.
  3. It just clicked for me. Walz is the real version of every 90’s wholesome sitcom Dad. I mean, his life sounds kind of like a show that would be on TGIF: Lovable Midwest veteran Football coach and dad who wins as an underdog for a congressional seat only to then become Governor of Minnesota…AND now is picked to run as VP! Each couple of seasons he gets a higher and higher position in government. Total vibe of Craig T Nelson’s Coach meets Step by Step Patrick Duffy meets every dad character John Ritter ever played.
  4. Aren’t all young straight white guys MAGA now? Half serious, but there are a significant # of 20 something’s I’ve met in the office have some serious beef with Democrats and the left. I think a lot have internalized the discussion about toxic masculinity and Taken it as a personal affront. They are more the jock / more main stream video game types of that gives some context. They seem kind of lost. They don’t really know what it means to be a man and have been caught in an adult adolescent purgatory
  5. Weirdly relevant sonsidering the Paris olympics? Kamabla sounds French, no? I'll answer for you,
  6. Dude doesn’t really even try to hug him . He just pulls him in and says “quit cryin’” D bag. You just assaulted his father. He’s alone. He’s scared. Quit crying?! Fuck you. Cop #1 seems lost in this endeavor completely. Probably would have let the guy go if not for Detective Dickface.
  7. Elon Musk?! I just assumed the ghost of Hugo Chavez and those rigged Dominion voting machines struck again!
  8. I think they were built for speed more than comfort….. Pretty sure got on Ozempic, got her self some new tits, and then took them on tour. Shame it was High School Musical. i would have liked it to be more (this) Old Man and the See.
  9. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/aug/02/louisiana-mayor-child-rape-arrest Because it’s everyone’s first thought / question:
  10. This deadline doesn’t excite me at all. I wanted more than a below average Junk and Kilkuchi. Not splashy at all. On one hand, it’s at least an effort. But the lack of a big bat makes me wonder if the front office truly knows the ins and outs of running a team. i just can’t see it.
  11. Between this and Bob Menendez, Egypt seems to be really dabbling in some fuckery with American politics.
  12. High speed rail is grade separated so……
  13. I thought Kikuchi is undefeated?
  14. It's a take. It fails to address that Trump only lost in 2020 by 40,000 votes. It's true that most Americans don't like the policies w/out the show. I'll give you that. But a considerable amount of people do like the clown show. His celebrity, 'wealth', vitriol, racism, xenophobia, grievance, and victimhood speak to a considerable swath of the American electorate. Packaged in any other way it doesn't really work. But slap some wierd hair and orange bronzer on it and people eat it up.
  15. Why is it that successful foreigners who benefit so mightily from the American political and economic system seem to hate others who try to get the same bite at the apple? Nativist poors or disaffected whites I can kind of understand. Don’t agree. But I can at least sort of get their beef. Rupert Murdoch or Elon Musk try to parade as champions of America yet they fail to truly understand what it’s truly about. America isn’t so much a place, an economy, or a single people. It’s more than the sum of its parts. It never lives up to its promise, yet remains an example. It’s repressive and liberating. It’s an idea and a place. It has no one ethnic identity but is made of a single people. Once when they get that, can they start telling us what Americans should know or think.
  16. From here on out the Astros can’t lose a series…. Which we then take into the playoffs and then…. Not lose a series. Well, sounds like a solid WS plan to me.
  17. Biden? Obama's Vice President? What does he have to do with anything.....? Life comes at you fast in 2024.
  18. Donald trump took a piece of plastic teleprompter to the periphery of his ear for this country. You don't take a superficial wound to your least vital external oragan in which you have 2 of so that you drop out at the 8th sign of trouble.
