  1. Was in a friend’s downtown condo overlooking town lake. I commented on all the paddleboards, “who the hell wants to sit out there? wtf?” My friend responded, “well we’re going to do the same damn thing at DKR next week.”
  2. Its the 2.1 amendment after it was revised to exclude militia service, framers intent, and states rights.
  3. Thank god. That part was a beating.
  4. If you’re a Texan and enjoy the luxuries of our bountiful natural resources, you can thank democrats like FDR, Sam Rayburn, LBJ, and JJ Pickle and other civic-minded leaders who invested in Texas infrastructure and set up agencies with legislation at state and federal levels. Investments made from 1930-1980 were critical for our success. Since that time, the GOP has largely starved the beast and Texas relies on transplants for prosperity. Our power grid is substandard Our transportation is poor Children, elderly, and disabled are in crisis Our water supply and air quality is suspect Our schools are underfunded and undermined Our healthcare system is top heavy (great for rich and populated) Our government is corrupt
  5. Democrats are feckless and suck at times, but at least they try. I challenge you to search the world, identify any country or US state that is economically developed, a democracy, and has a diverse population, and identify successful public policy positions that you would support. My guess is that you’ll find legislation and policies that a democrat in the US would also support. If you can’t cite any, then trust people like me to tell you to vote straight ticket democrat because they are the only major party in the US that attempts to govern within the framework of a democracy at this time.
  6. Lying is like breathing to that guy. His only chess move is playing checkers. 6’3 215? He’s 6’0 260 lb, / 6’2 with lifts
  7. What are we gonna strenuously object? Teams that complain about officiating always look like punks in the media. We’re not gonna sue. We’ll lie and take it.
  8. The media will be working in shifts to make the Big12 accountable for [checks notes] 10 years of biased officiating. We’re not going to win the Big12. We’re coming off a 5-loss season and lost a generational talent. My expectations are low and vagina is extremely dry.
  9. That is a lucid, well thought-out, intelligent objection. Overruled. Bill O’Brien coached the 2022 offense to 41 points a game. 4th in the nation. BOB is one of the worst OC’s out there. Sometimes talent covers up bad coaching. Sark can coordinate an offense. And some of his offenses are beautiful to watch. Some are not. It remains to be seen what he can do without elite talent. We saw our offense sputter after other teams adjusted. Sometimes it looked like we ran out plays. He got run out of Atlanta. I’m hoping he works out, but he’s been underwhelming so far.
  10. He was the judge who correctly identified massive inequities like 20 years and 10 leg sessions ago. That he didnt swoop in and adjust the formulas that punish urban districts is not his fault. Current state leadership see the outdated formulas as a feature and not a bug
  11. California is populated by generations of Oklahoma rejects.
  12. Everyone knows that Karl Marx wrote Mein Kempf from his home in Helsinki, Sweden
  13. HST seemed pretty damned proud to be responsible for dropping on the bomb. Did I miss something, except that HST seemed unsympathetic
  14. Will Bezos buy Fox already and tank it like Elon did to Twitter and Eskimo Hut did to Shaggy? (too soon?)
  15. KR is a mass shooter. If a shooter with an AR15 shoots an unarmed person during a struggle (maybe justified), then he starts running and people around him think he’s dangerous, can they take him out? Like this is a mass shooter on the loose. Why wouldnt you be able to shoot or take down someone you believe is a dangerous mass shooter?
  16. An extra hour for bomb making? Would be a completely different movie. Watch Fat Man & Little Boy with Paul Newman and John Cusack if you want to see a movie about that. Everything built towards the ending. Not sure there was a wasted scene. Same criticism people had about Dunkirk. That it wasnt a war movie.
  17. Per Wikipedia…
  18. We need a milquetoast AG who we cant remember their name because they are busy prosecuting laws, not breaking them.
  19. What if I told you there is a state that booby traps international waters against various laws and treaties and many others that wipe their asses with the 1st, 4th, well virtually all amendments? We have a former President who prompted adult human lawyers and journalists to publicly speculate whether a President could self-pardon or pardon co-conspirators. Laws are fluid in this timeline.
  20. That’s amazing. Clown show.
  21. Carlos Pena now plays for Helsinki, Sweden
  22. Just was a little shocked about the Michael Oher lawsuit against his conservators - Theres a thread on the football board. Another Michael Lewis adaptation Moneyball was greatly manipulated and may have crossed the line - the whole Jeremy Pena thing didnt go down like that. I was also disappointed that the cons from Catch Me If You Can were probably greatly exaggerated. He was no doctor or lawyer. Almost every scene was a fake of a fake. I guess growing up means learning a lot of the things you see in movies are bullshit, but some of these things go beyond slight changes for lack of time and into complete distortion.
  23. The movie focused on Oppenheimer’s rise, peak, and fall. 2/3 of the movie focused on what you felt was extraneous. And the irony of something so petty as personal grudge just adds meat to the bone. It’s like a “Rosebud” moment in Citizen Kane. The reporter searches for meaning, and its just a sled (or a euphemism for Marion Davis’ pussy). We follow the story of Opp’s downfall and learn its largely orchestrated.
