  1. The Freakenomics episode paints Deneen's philosophy in a much more benign light than his book Regime Change. In the book he specifically calls out the need for a small cabal of class traitors (elite, ivy educated managerial class) to implement many of his conservative views) and admits it’s not a call to eliminating elites, but changing who the elites are: christian, aristocratic, truly conservative. Also of note, he believes republicans, neo cons, etc., are all varying degrees of liberals. At points he seems to be saying feudalism is a better form of governance than godless liberalism, even referencing the downward responsibilities of the nobility to the peasantry. It’s chilling in its calm reasoning.

  3. Peas stop. Couple jokes and you idiots think that gives your carrot blanch to just toss anything in.
  4. Got dusty realizing that. However, he made the top 4 in the last 4 majors. Most elite players would kill for that. We're calling for him to retire cuz it's embarrassing. That is to say, if he goes through the us, or ausie without breaking down, he could win it. The last two times he's played alcaraz he won. Crazy to step back and realize he has dominated tennis and the majors for a decade.
  5. I stayed near St Germain for the French Open a few weeks ago. There's an amazing grocery store there on Rue De Bac that has a large international section labeled by country - the US section looked like someone googled an image for "US grocery store" and mimicked the the shittiest Dollar General in Mississippi. "Off-Brand Generic" doesn't do it justice.
  6. If you don't know Riddick, you're beyond help
  7. She dates a black guy. Just saying.
  8. Decent sized kid could take a Chimp ~kevin
  9. New rule. Much sadness. Just makes the lines to get back into the stadium at changeovers and set breaks ridiculous. Doesn't stop buffoonery, or drinking.
  10. Aryna gonna win it all. She is beast mode.
  11. Coco made her look like a junior. But I bet she's heard from again. she was injured, and 800k buys a lot of coaching and phisio work.
  12. Just got back from 8 days at the FO. Saw Andreeva, Rublev, Rune, Musetti, Schnieder, Alexandrova, Vondersova, Kudermentova, Greekspoor, Baptiste, Ostepenko and Ethan Quinn. (Not spelling all that mess correctly). Thoughts: 1. No booze on the court at RG is brutal. My daughter and I were chugging Stella between sets. Fucking degenerates.) 2. the Women are so much more powerful than I thought, or even then they were 5 years ago at the US open, the last time I went to a major. They are very big and powerful. Massive legs. 3. Sat right behind Andreeva, and the signature lice are awful. Halfway through the end of what may or may not be the final set, the 8-14 year old kids (and some adults) start flooding the forward seats with balls and paraphernalia in hops of a signature. It sucks. They worm into every available free space. Makes for an awful 30-45 minutes 3. Musetti is the most graceful player I've seen live (never say Federer play live). He glides. He's also the real deal. The one-handed back-hand is almost discordant to see live. 4. French open only having one mens match for night session is bullshit. If you ever go to the french open, buy day sessions. Much better bang for your buck. 5. Do NOT got to the french open when PSG wins the Champions League and the entire town riots. We had a couple sketchy nights getting home from the stadium, and getting TO the stadium once we saw roving gangs evading hordes of French motorcycle benny-hilling across the highway. Daytime fires/looting. It was a trip. 6. In general, the crowds, the sponsors and the organizers were top notch and very friendly.
  13. Same as Tech, though they do have a win % against the techsters...at 53%. athletically, atm is tech.
  14. He's no John Bonham....
  15. I said what I said.
  16. Fuck you, Emily.
  17. I'm the real Huntmiller. Thanks.
  18. I miss Fuddruckers word
