This doesn't make sense to me. Wouldn't the effects of inebriation provide some warning that you are over consuming whether or not you have taste buds?
He drinks regularly and paid no attention apparently to how much he had. From when I used to drink I can recall that at a certain point it all feels the same. I think normally where you might stop, even if you are wasted, did not happen for him. If it all feels like water going down I would probably have had a similar incident.

Since last Friday.
I hope you are getting better by the moment hoss. You’re one of the cool posters on here and I really hope that the side effects do not hit you really hard.
A friend of mine I grew up with got Covid a year ago or so. He lost his ability to taste anything for nine months. That inability to taste anything darn near killed him. He was drinking with his brother who came down from Dallas and thanks to not tasting any of the liquor he was drinking he got alcohol poisoning.

I can't decide whether it's more like asking Hitler's ghost to write a history book, or like trying to teach an aardvark long division.
There are times when I am teaching long division to 9 and 10 year olds that I think the aardvark might catch on quicker.

Every R IS Trump. You’re starting to grasp the problem, even as you argue against it. Any R that doesn’t fully support whatever batshit insanity he spouts at a given moment is driven out as an apostate. They fucking kicked out LYNN CHENEY, for fuck’s sake. The party is paying his legal fees TODAY. They are all-in on his Big Lie as we speak. Anyone who dares disagree with him is cast out as a RINO libtard. This is our concern, dude. It’s a proto-fascist cult of personality that will gladly destroy all functioning democratic norms in order to satisfy the whims of their mad king.
The D opposition doesn’t have to be JFK. They just have to have a pulse and believe that maybe, we should be a Republic still. That’s it. It’s the only issue that matters right now.I do not usually lean as far into this as you do, but I absolutely do agree with this. I have not waivered on believing there are enough good human beings in this country to right the ship and send this cult to the dustbin of history. It is one heckuva thing to do, but the GQP cult members cannot be allowed to get control of this country. At some point you have to realize that siding with “libtards” on this is absolutely the right thing to do if you care at all about the people you share this country with. This is not real hard to understand.

Progress, not perfection, my dude. I'd accept center left.
You seem to choose positions that advocate for others who need help climbing the ever-changing societal ladder. We should not need a party designation to figure out that doing that is what we should all be doing. You help as many folks as you can along the way.

Rent free in your head. My parents are in NYC with me. We went to the Thanksgiving Parade. Your life seems like it sucks.
Hope y’all enjoyed it. I am going to try to bring my mom back with me if she is doing well enough to fly so she can see the city leading up to Christmas. She has been here twice right after Christmas for New Year’s Eve, but not before.
I walked past the barricades this morning for the route on my way to catch a flight to Austin. Ton of police over near the Garden today, but that’s normal for the parade. This is such an awesome time of year in the city. It already feels so much better than a year ago this time.

The goatee is some sort of club sign, isn’t it? The first piece of a MAGA Starter Pack.
Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI teach 4th graders that are more emotionally mature than this guy. Putting that shirt on and going out in public is a sure way to let everyone know you are not all there. This entire lie built upon lie phenomenon that is now the majority of that voting base is so abjectly ridiculous as to not even seem real at times.

This guy is just completely broken and lost as a person. He is going to keep dragging as many people down with him as possible. He needs serious psychological help. Anyone that still supports him is likely in need of some help themselves.

People equate Texas with being egotistical, bougie, condescending, wealthy, bitchy, etc. that’s why they get up for us a love to beat us no matter if we suck or not.
It pains me to agree with this, but this is true. I am born and raised in Texas and am the only member of my family to leave the state. This is an accurate view of the association people generallly have of Texas and Texans when you travel outside of the state. The bullseye will be there for every single game no matter the opponent.

I am okay with Tyler Wade not being on the team anymore. Clint Frazier had flashes of brilliance, but he never put it all together. A team like Oakland could probably take him off the scrap heap and turn him into an everyday player that does well.
Putting Torres at SS ruined him. He never should have played there, at all. Hopefully the 2022 team is more enjoyable to watch. I live about 15 minutes away from the stadium in East Harlem and yet I barely went to any games. I went to almost half the home games in 2019 when I was still living in Astoria (Over in Queens and a much longer trip back). This team never felt like much fun. Hope that changes next year because I love sitting out there watching baseball.

Great sequence LA
Vogel will wind up being the fall guy for this. That’s unfortunate because he’s a really good guy who is coaching the 2012 Olympic team a decade late.

When I want to go to St. Patrick’s for a service (Not Catholic, but the service and building are peaceful) I wind up walking past there. There is just such a weird vibe around that building.

I thought about seeing this game because I wanted to do some fishing out around Spokane and I thought seeing the Zags in person would be cool. I couldn’t get Friday off so I had to scrap that trip for now. Hopefully can make it out there to see them play at some point this year. They are the most fun team in the college ranks to watch when their offense is clicking.

What should be clear is that this young man fell victim to propaganda and the machinations of a cult that has little value upon human life. He willingly put himself in a situation that he knew could get out of hand and that is just what happened. He was looking to be a hero and he is to a significant portion of our population. I think that is a sad indictment on where millions of our fellow citizens are at mentally. He should be sent to prison, but given the chance to rehabilitate his mind and undo the damage the cult has done to him.

Watched Antlers on Friday. I love Jesse Plemons as an actor, but he could not carry that script. I don’t often suggest not watching something, but this is a movie you do not need to see. I hope his next movie has a far better script and storyline.

So we have 26,000 city workers here not vaccinated as of yesterday evening. I think it’ll be 20k by the deadline. A lot of cops aren’t getting it and I am fine with that. Covid vaccination mandates will get rid of the excess officers that DeBlasio and the city council didn’t last summer.

My mother was diagnosed with stage 3 non-Hodgkins Lymphoma in June of 2014. She is still here seven years later going strong and this includes a 2018 diagnosis of chronic myeloid leukemia. I believe Dickie V can kick cancer in the behind. College basketball owes that man a lot for the amount of people he brought to the game. He loves his job and it easily shows.

As a football fan in Texas, it galls me. But it's true and a legit pitch. The laws here regarding voting and abortion are now more extreme than Mississippi's.
And I kind of hope it works.
I absolutely hopes this has an impact on Texas on the college and pro level.

Today I was so incredibly proud of my class. We had an incident during lunch so I brought them inside and instead of doing more math and reading I let the young lady who was the most upset get up and talk. I wish y’all could have heard her speak. It was amazing to hear her speak about respect and being bullied. I did not prompt or ask anyone to write this on the board. A few were behind me while we were talking for an hour and a half and they wrote their thoughts down. This is quite the group of emotionally aware 4th graders in Washington Heights.

I disagree. Brogdon and Levert would have helped them immensely.
I do not recall what their entire offer was, but yes those two guys would have been some really good pieces that I think would have worked well around Embiid. If someone offers some matching salaries and a couple of first round picks for Simmons they should take it and be done with it. That is really where they are at in my opinion on this. Get what you can and move forward.

Also - I will concede this - in was my first movie in theaters in almost 2 years and I saw it on a decent IMAX screen. That totally could have colored my impression favorably. It was very fun to experience the difference between the big screen and at home again. Almost novel.
This was my first time back since March of last year. I think the last movie I saw was that Harrison Ford movie Call of the Wild.

I finally had some free time and just got through watching it. It is not my favorite Bond movie, but I enjoyed it. There was really not going to be a great way for this to end, but it was still well done. I am actually excited to see what comes next.

Good advice from WWS. You just offer love and positive attention. It sounds like your wife is making a positive difference with her. Stay positive and always, always, always heed the advice from WWS of taking care of yourself. Make sure y’all are not on empty emotionally.
