  1. I'm on that pier to the right a few times a week. Was in one of the first buildings as you walk off the pier today. That large ship in the right background (hard to see on the first rainy day we've had in months) is parked at the Navy's massive fuel pier, so obviously could have been much, much worse. And, like I said, another split second on that course and everybody's eating mine clearing dolphin sushi.
  2. I can't believe I'm defending Gobert here*, but they beat Denver and got to the WCF because they were the best defensive team in the league all year. A Minnesota team with KAT and no Gobert peaks as an easy 2nd round bounce. But a Minnesota team with Gobert and no KAT also seems to have obvious shortcomings. *though certainly not his contract or trade package
  3. I was in a building on the waterfront. Definitely heard and felt it. Initially dismissed it as a jet going supersonic a little too low/close (not terribly uncommon by North Island), but then it went immediately silent. From people who did see it, apparently the pilots ejected almost immediately after takeoff, then the plane when nose up into the clouds before plummeting straight down. Pretty damn fortunate for such minimal collateral damage punching out in what's a very crowded residential/business area. I wonder what the Navy protocol is for pilots in an malfunctioning aircraft over a population center. Maybe there was nothing else they could do.

  5. I'd have more sympathy for these people if it didn't ultimately--always--boil down to this. Policies, American first, economy, wokeness gone awry, yadda, yadda...on some level, they all voted for Donald Trump because he promised to punish the people that they don't like. Fuck 'em.
  6. F/A 18 just crashed a couple hundred yards from me into the San Diego Bay. Pilots ejected, no damage to anything onshore. Just trying to keep jet fuel away from the Naval dolphin pens that the jet missed by about 50 feet.
  7. Taking Donald Trump and Elon Musk's word about rampant corruption that they unilaterally discovered is certainly a choice. I feel like we've seen this movie before. Like every couple of weeks for 9 years.
  8. Seriously, how fucking stupid do you have to be to believe that that's an actual quote?
  9. Oh for sure. Wind River is one of my favorites. When he nails it, he nails it. He just also has quite the collection of lower-effort projects with lazy ass writing, shameless self-marketing and product placement, hilariously written "strong" female characters, and not so subtle political messaging. But, when you're responsible for 83% of all shows on television, there are bound to be clunkers.
  10. Crazy how cheap TVs are these days that people keep staging these things under the assumption that it's still funny.
  11. Harsh on my part. He's either a MAGA choad or he's smart enough to realize the profitability of throwing out red meat to that crowd. I'll give him due credit and assume the latter. In Lioness, it's pretty comical. Two seasons of dudes kitted out to the nines pausing mid-gunfight to give exposition on what "the administration" allows to happen (or conceals) on the border. Even Kevin Costner's masturbatory "I am the wall against which progress dies" speech in Yellowstone. It's pretty damn heavy-handed and clearly meant for a certain audience. Doesn't bother me enough to stop watching some of his stuff--and, to his credit, everything he touches seems to have a floor of turn your brain off action and entertainment--just eye-roll inducing.
  12. Well la de da, look at you with all your expensive schoolin'
  13. Okay, I'm finally out. Taking Kid Rock's sloppy seconds is pretty much the only bridge on the planet that I wouldn't cross.
  14. When you stumbled upon this making your way through whatever shithole internet algorithm, talk me through the thought process that led you to: "I need to share this! It's hilarious!"
  15. I mean, 10 days ago their realistic chances were literally zero. Now they're decidedly >0, so of course they're going to get 3 months of "nobody wants to see them in a series" hype and buildup.
  16. There's a non-zero chance that she watched the first episode of Season 2 of Taylor Sheridan's Lioness, and she treats everything produced by that border-obsessed MAGA choad as a documentary. So she just inserted herself in and changed a few details.
  17. Aaron mimicking Brett's career and life path almost to a tee is oddly poetic.
  18. Do you think he walks into the locker room with his dick out, bragging about all the masseuses he harassed in the offseason? People are complex, and I (thankfully) don't know a goddamn thing about my coworkers' sexual perversions. What a dumb fucking post.
  19. Are you AI? You have to tell us if you're AI.
  20. You should have a Ted Talk.
  21. Nothing like 17 billion variations of the same over-produced, paint-by-numbers bro country anthems.
  22. Even before AD's injury, this post makes zero sense. If the Mavs have the 2nd best roster in the West right now, they had an even better roster 9 days ago.
  23. I mean, too fucking bad?
  24. Rex vs. ztexjas is the battle to the death that I never knew that I always wanted.
