  1. I've read all about the chip shortage, affecting car production and other industries. 

    But now it has affected me - short story is I ordered a laptop from Dell on March 22, and it was scheduled to ship April 2. But this morning I realized I had not received an email about shipment; so I log in to check my order status and get this and I'm really pissed that there is no communication about the delay. And I'm presuming it is chip related, but really with no information there could be some other reason for the delay. Maybe the shipping SNAFU in the canal is the reason, or my horoscope, but whatever I'm pissed.

    Yeah, this one is really starting to piss me off and not because I pay more than most people (fuck you progressive judgey types).  It's fucking capped at $10k.  You can't swing a dead cat in Austin and find anybody, no matter the low fixed income level, who pays less than $10k in property taxes.  Yet someone with a comparable income/net worth in a state with state income tax gets far, far more of a deduction off their federal income taxes.  How the fuck do Abbott and Patrick not raise hell about this in D.C.?  Or have our Texas congressional delegation + Cruz/Cornyn raise hell about this?  You guys wanna help with burdensome taxation from D.C., the median home owner in Austin (around $500k with homestead) pays $10k in property taxes already.  That's the 50%ile family, not the fucking McMansion asshole up the hill.  This is so fucked.  

    LOL - Like Ted Cruz (or almost any elected fuckwad) gives a flying fuck about anybody except themself and getting reelected

    wooooow, Sparty got *boned*. three consecutive terrible calls against them in the final minute of regulation. honestly disgraceful officiating. inexcusable. Sparty won this game and then had it taken from them. that was baaaaad.

    I'm not sure where this comes from, as none of my homer feeds are giving off that vibe.  More like they showed why they were in the play-in bracket.

    Good luck Bruins, hope you get one more win.

    My BiL married into a huge MSU family and so I naturally root for them, especially as foil to UM...lots of duplicity in my Pokes vs the evil empire in OU.  Starting this game at 1020p EST is fucking ridiculous.  

    Fucking TV setting the agenda for ratings and playing a West coast tip time for a midwestern game 

    Start this fucker
