  1. What makes a coffee shop transgender? Like....you order a coffee, but it identifies as tea? I don't get it.

    Yeah....we're still in. It's an activity that my wife and I really enjoy doing together, and she is really into it and invested in a bunch of the players. That said, she's frustrated as hell by the same problems, over and over: we can't get fucking goals out of our designated players. And yeah, Nico's inexplicable sub strategy of "I regularly don't sub until the 80th fucking minute" also makes her ragey.
  3. More than it should have. But not that long, all things considered. When I was a baby lawyer, at a small private fundraiser for a hispanic republican judicial appointee, and I heard the speakers (including Rick Perry) say all the fucking dog whistles, I came back to the office and told the senior partner I worked with about it. Without saying these exact words, he pretty much said "yeah....that's why I sent you there." It worked.
  4. The end game is to make everything fail, so it collapses, and then the oligarchs pick up the pieces for pennies and run it all. Destroy society to seize it, lock stock and barrel.
  5. In Treasonous Trumpland, doc pics are the new dick pics.
  6. Dinesh. You absolute fucking idiot. And Vivek too. You stood among the xenophobic haters, and shouted "I'm one of you!" for years. And like a fool, you thought you were. You never were. You never will be. You were a useful idiot for them, until you were no longer useful. They were always going to turn on you. Always. We told you. You didn't listen. Idiots like you never do. You sold your soul....to and for a group that literally hates you. How pathetic and stupid.
  7. Look.....I ain't judgin'. Pussy is a powerful thing, and when you're a bug-eyed loser psycho like Ka$h, ANY pussy is kryptonite.
  8. I mean, Trumpkins....these are your choices. He pardoned a crypto crook. An absolute, convicted crypto crook who helped funnel money to terrorists. So when he says he knows nothing about this, he is (1) telling the truth, in which case he's not competent to be running a Jiffy Lube, much less a country (seriously, you don't know you pardoned someone like this?), or (2) he's flat-out lying. Either answer is disqualifying, but you actually fucking LIKE IT, because forcing an incompetent lying piece of shit down the country's throat really "owns tha libz" ("libz" now being defined as any human being who gives a shit about this country). Fuck you to hell. You are purposefully destroying a country that my family has fought for, and that my kids may yet have to fight for (surely in a needless war of complete idiocy, but hey, it will make Dotard look tough, and that's all that matters -- not the blood of American youth spilled for his ego alone). Fuck you to hell, and I hope you suffer.
  9. Gracias. That may be the plan. Looks like they can get transit to Nuevo Laredo, but we'll have to cross and pick them up. And go through understaffed US border checkpoints. Sigh. This fucking country.
  10. Yes. If there's one thing that will fix our long-term ATC shortage, that would be.....firing ATCs. Failed. State.
  11. Well, I was figuring there are directs from FRA and LHR to CDMX. But yeah, even a connection from there to Monterrey gets em pretty close. The other challenge is finding flights that don't transit through the US. That's right. Need to look at travel that takes us to and from more stable, functional countries. Like Mexico. We are rapidly becoming a fascist failed state.
  12. Comparing property taxes of a Texas city to other cities is comparing apples to lizards. Most other states have income taxes, so property taxes carry a LOT more of the load here. Just compare total per capita local tax burdens, that’s much more accurate.
  13. Sigh. If this goes through Xmas…and it may…I’m considering getting the kids back here to Toronto or CDMX, and then ground transport from there. Which is a shitty option, but we’ll see.
  14. Multiple friends in Houston are reported that they’re bailing on flights at IAH. Hours just to get inside, then a shitshow once you do. Some folks gave up and went home, others are just cancelling trips.

    Also, if any of y’all needed anything from any of your Korean friends tonight, you were hosed. Every Korean within 100 miles of Austin was at this game to see their hero. And…they got what they came for. Uzuni is worthless. $12 million for him to score…6 more goals than I did. And y’all who say “if only we had Vasquez,” he was far from impressive before he got hurt. We get jack shit from our DPs, and it’s killing us. Other things need work, but if you don’t have goal scorers in a game that IS WON BY SCORING GOALS, You are fucked. Sigh.

    Guys….i don’t think this one is gonna come down to PKs.

    We sit with Dani’s family, so it was cool to celebrate with them. There. That’s the high point of the night.

    First goal broke free on an OBVIOUS shove foul to sprig. The play. Happened right in front of us. Stuver screwed the pooch on the second goal. And uzuni is the worst PK shooter I’ve ever seen. He should never ever take a pk.
  19. You can usually just get pork butt steaks already cut? They’re perfect for that dish.
  20. That is one of the most German recipes ever. “First, start with eleventy pounds of potatoes. Then, whatever you do, DO NOT ADD ANY SPICES.” I mean, it looks good enough….but could be improved with some diced jalapeño with the peppers. Maybe some oregano and such? Braised meat and gravy over rice. AKA, the baseline Cajun meal. Love it.
  21. Understand that every last MAGAt will defend this - without any irony - with “but he’s a job creator!” The most powerful force in the universe isn’t gravity, or nuclear energy. It’s cognitive dissonance, and it has overwhelmed everything else in our timeline.
  22. What are "text messages hobbes2702 gets from his wife when she's on an out-of-town work trip?"
  23. It’s our dominant identity. American exceptionalism? Yeah…we’re exceptionally assholish.
  24. The seat should be auctioned off for charity - maybe neighborhood longhorns or something that Scott supported - for each game this year.
  25. But I guarantee you he knows that color they are.
