  1. In order to properly rep this, we need a "crying" or "sad" emoji that we can use simultaneously with the laugh emoji.
  2. He says he was 'joking', referring to people worrying about germs obsessively. Sure, Pete. Your potential future SecDef in action ...
  3. So DeSantis gets to appoint Rubio's replacement in the Senate? Ah, ok. Now it's pretty clear why that little fucker Rubio got an appointment.
  4. Dang, man. I was in Navy ROTC at UT. I probably shoulda thrown my hat in the ring for SecDef, too.
  5. No idea what he pays, but he certainly could pay that and not sweat it at all.
  6. I'm guessing they like the smell of Slim's money. It would actually make sense, at least for next year, if Slim is paying them the same or more than the amount they're losing by not winning the WCC.
  7. Welp, that's it. I thought my VPN was disconnected, but I checked again, and it wasn't. Turned it off. Now the videos play fine. Gracias, amigo!
  8. Oh yeah ... Fallows stepping down from TD role at Aston Martin.
  9. LOL. Tickets? Fuck that shit. Monetize, monetize, monetize ...
  10. This thread moves so damn fast, so nsiap ...
  11. Yeah this is what Popok was talking about in the video I posted earlier.
  12. nsiap ... Former DHS secretary Jeh Johnson worked a lot with Tom Homan and says that he doesn't recognize the Tom Homan he sees speaking publicly now. He says he would never ask an agent to seperate a U.S. citizen child and from their parents, calling that an inhumane policy. He stressed that criminals & national security threats should be the top priority, and that there are more than enough of them in our jails right now "to keep ICE very, very busy.

  13. Yeah this makes sense with what I've been seeing with the poor passing. I just didn't know how much of the setting inaccuracy to attribute to the poor passes, and I haven't seen enough action and stats with each setter to know how much better or worse the offense was running with either of them. I do see Avery making her fair share of poorly located sets, often too tight with hitters really reaching or just having to tip, but that's been happening with both setters. She also seems to struggle with consistency setting the middle. Yeah it's hard for me to get my head around winning a NC with a freshman setter who's playing hurt, and then demoting her for a smaller setter who puts you in a bind on the block half the time. If the offense worked well enough to win it all with an injured Ella setting from the ground, then let her set from the ground all the time. Hell, Avery's jumpsets probably aren't coming from a much higher point than Ella's flatfooted sets anyway. If we lose Ella and Devin over this shit, that will not be cool.
  14. Awesome. Just started it on MAX.
  15. How do we know who wrote it? Not doubting you. I wanna use this on another board.
  16. Says it's disabled here. Is he in the UK, or where? Asking for my vpn ...
  17. Yeah I just don't get it. Out of the 3 options (6-2 ... 5-1 w/Ella ... 5-1 w/Carlson) it seems like 5-1 with Carlson should be the least attractive option. Ella gives you a much better block in the 5-1. What am I missing here? Is Ella setting the ball that poorly compared to Avery? If not, I struggle to see why Ella would be relegated to the bench. Someone help me make sense of this, please!
  18. nsiap ... For the last few days, whenever I click the play button here on imbedded youtube videos, I get a message saying I need to sign in to verify I'm not a spam bot - but I'm already logged in both on YT and on the surl, so I can't play the video in the surly post. Pretty weird. Never seen it before. I tried loggong out and back into YT, but I still get the same shit. I was on the Cloak Room when I first noticed this happening. If I copy the video link and then open it in a new tab, it works fine. Weird. ETA: Chrome, on a windows laptop.
  19. Love this Popok dude ... Here he delves into lawful orders, unlawful orders, court challenges, and how military leaders might respond or push back against unlawful ones.
  20. Fantastic video. It's like Frank is inside my head. I mean ... almost word for word. Thanks for posting.
  21. Yep. You might be onto something there. I think that might qualify as norms being thrown out the window.
  22. McConaughey & fam on the DKR sidelines today, taking photos arm in arm with Hinchcliffe and the Undertaker ...
  23. Alonso looked pretty rough getting out of the car in Brazil, and requested a check by the medical team. The bouncing he talked about was nuts ....
  24. nsiap ... So this is a thing now. 😡 Racist texts about slaves and ‘picking cotton’ sent to Black people as state AGs, colleges and police probe their origins https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/07/us/racist-text-messages-post-election/index.html
