  1. It's happening gif? From the AP this morning:
  2. The bolded was my initial point. "WHAT" is the R's fault? We have to get to a specific pain point rather than a general "It's the R's fault the government shut down". Okay? What does that even mean to the layman? That was my point, nobody I know or talk to or interact with has felt 1 ounce of pain fromt he government being shut down right now (hence the comment, there seems to be a huge lack of urgency). Maybe I'm insulated in the suburbs. Maybe not. Maybe there just needs to be more time to allow the negative consequences to play out (e.g. holiday travel snarls). Maybe not. The point is, you have to drag the people across the glass and help them feel the pain they are supposed to be feeling from the government shutting down. A winning message isn't "the R's are dolts and shut the government down!" if there is no pain. A winning message is to identify the pain and tie it to the R's fault, "Your prescription arthritis medicine went from $5 to $300 this month and every month after beause the greedy republicans shut down the government!" I just made that last consquence up, but you get the point. Need to analyze and draw out the conclusions and spoonfeed it to people.
  3. There seems to be zero urgency on this thing. Stock market ticking up still somehow, informally and anectdotely, nobody I talk to seems to care that the government is shut down and most don't even know in a "oh, this that still happening is it still shut down? btw what does that even mean?" It seems like the politically plugged in get it, but not sure how what % of the actual people that make up in the real world.
  4. I’ll take bad bunny over Kendrick Lamar any day
  5. When I read what you wrote, I immediately thought of the asian comedien from knoxville tennessee. Dems (asian man) need to be able to speak with a southern drawl (popular in red states):

    I wish i could find it, there is one where a fat lady is going after him and he says " I can walk backwards faster than you" and ragebaited her so hard.
  8. From what I saw of Hawkins, he was throwing 50/50 balls against Kent State that would be defended easily (or picked) by a team who isn't Little Sisters of the Poor. But then again, I saw Lagley have a dang fine game against our supposedly good D while throwing 5 picks against someone else.
  9. Hi Mrs. Rowling, didn't realize we had a legend in our midst.

  11. People are not the enemy. People are the mission.
  12. Theo is hilarious to me. I have never seen a clip where he was MAGA, but comparing to him to Dane Cook feels wrong.
  13. I am a Christian who tries very hard not to do politics. I think there is an appropriate way to handle that, but I also think it's one of those things that reasonable minds can disagree about. Being apolitical to the best of your ability or being politically active based on your faith is a choice (often via intrepreation) that isn't tied to salvation or doctrine, just a distinctive on interpretations of different theological and/or biblical issues that don't define what it means to essentially be a Christian.
  14. I'm old. But can someone young and smart and good looking becalse explain how the song "Mo Bamba" became a cultural phenomenon? I thought about posting this on the basketball board but the irony is that this song is going to outlive and be more remembered than anything the actual player and namesake will ever do in his career. Every football game and event I've gone to in the last few years plays this song and the crowd gets HYPED. No matter what state or college. Even the aggies, who ostensibly will boycot and despise anything to do with has adopted it. Is there a 30 for 30 someone can direct me to on this? It's truly breaking my brain when you search youtube for Mo Bamba it's compilations of insane crowds like Penn State and Aggy going nuts to the song.
  15. Don't have a dog in the fight as someone who doesn't live in Austin, but it's hard not to be sympathetic for you who do. Seriously Austin (Austin ISD) is straight up being robbed blind.
  16. I know it's deeply unpopular and a bad word these days, but ASU is our premiere climate science, sustainability, ESG-science and accounting type program in the U.S. If we ever see a world where a new administration takes over and we care about the planet and the intersectionality of the planet and business, ASU will be the place pumping out those leaders. In fact, saw this from the UN conference last week: https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/arizona-environment/2025/09/22/asu-launches-rob-walton-school-conservation-futures-115m-donation/86087367007/
  17. Is it even a conversation or debate at this point how important CC is to the league? Like the podcaster said, most people who would know about the teams in the WNBA playoffs had no idea the Fever were even in the playoffs once CC went down. I guess CC should get 53-55% of the gross revenue of the WNBA by these quantitative metrics. Joking, but seriously, if there was EVER a situation for a player to get equity into a league or a team, this is the one.
  18. haha makes sense, hence the "punisher" look lol lame.
  19. uhhhhhhhhhh what is this? what are challenge coins? maybe im just highly ignorant and google will be my friend.
  20. No lies detected.
  21. Plus the steak was like...Ruths Chris good, I guess? Definitely not high end steakhouse good.
  22. This doesn't surprise me. I think that the Texas Rangers were one of the very few teams that did NOT do a Gay Pride night or celebration game.
  23. This is actually shocking to me. I've never personally been but everything I have ever read or watched (reels, shorts, etc.) of Savannah Bananas had me believe it was the kind of goofy, irreverent fun that a bunch of goofy liberals like me would enjoy. If the Disney Channel was commissioned to put on baseball games type gooberness. Really shocked to hear the Nascar demographic has taken it over. Maybe I'm projecting because I've read a bit and seen a lot of the owner, the marketing genius guy who is skinny and goofy and looks like a guy who would be in those Obamacare ads that people would make fun of for being too liberal.
