  1. "We can't do anything about the guy we illegally deported because he's in a different country." Ojo, we're still all good, right?
  2. Oooohhhh, that's the good shit.
  3. Surly has unfortunately been more right than wrong about what Trump 2.0 would mean.
  4. Picked this up at the library today. Never heard of the guy, but I love a good adventure into the wilderness.
  5. I had to look it up. I don't believe that is something I can offer.
  6. I bought it used from a friend and we had each of our 2 kids in it for 4-5 months. Toward the end of the 2nd child, the movement started to get a little jerky, so I took it apart and replaced some O-rings. Works great again. Friends of Surly automatically qualify for the discounted rate of $400.
  7. I imagine it's pretty easy to be a prick to others and not care about money when mommy and daddy pay for everything.
  8. You don't think Americans can handle more suffering than the Chinese? But we quietly accepted Covid restrictions with nary a complaint!
  9. Suicide by cop in 2010 or 2011, right? I graduated in 05/2010 and I think it was that fall.
  10. "Only one epidemiologist remains in the program's team to investigate outbreaks, one official said, and was still in the early stages of their training." Investigating why a literal boatload of people have diarrhea sounds like a pretty shit gig baseline, much less when you're by yourself and don't know what the fuck you're doing.
  11. The only silver lining in all of this is that my wife and I have gotten closer with my sister and her husband as we deal with all this nonsense.
  12. The hookem2010 family feud is about to enter its next stage. After not talking for the last couple months, my parents are back in town and ready to get together to see if/how we can salvage our relationship. I can't say that I'm particularly looking forward to spending a weekend evening attempting to get them to recognize reality versus whatever world they believe they're living in, but whatever. Meanwhile, my sister, who is married to a man but considers herself LGBT+, and is a small business owner getting screwed by tariffs, also told my mother that she needed some space. This was followed by an apparently accidental audio message sent to her by my mom of her breaking down to my dad about their children not wanting to talk to them. So now my sister is going to have a big sit-down talk with them a week before me. Little Bro definitely had the right idea by peacing out to Cali almost a decade ago. Tearing your family apart to own the libs!
  13. It seems so long since Roe v Wade was overturned, but here is a reminder of how evil that shit is. Remember how the anti-abortion freaks would put up those giant billboards of aborted fetuses in front of Gregory? Well, I just saw the reverse. A baby that should have never been born, with a condition incompatible with life, due to the mother being unable to get an abortion. In addition to being financially ruined, the mother will be forced to watch her horribly disfigured, mentally non-functional child suffer until what is hopefully an early death. I can't share the inage but it's fucking nightmare fuel. Republicans just out there protecting women and babies.
  14. Speaking of poop nuggets, my 2 year-old just shit in the bathtub as I was getting ready to respond with how much I enjoyed La Brea.
  15. Barrett has obviously had a lot of really shitty rulings, but it seems like I've seen her as the only crossover with the Dem-appointed judges a handful of times recently. Not that losing our rights 5-4 instead of 6-3 is much comfort.
  16. Hooollly shit, I haven't checked this out since the first couple pages. It appears I have some reading to do.
  17. Sun Tzu sounds very DEI, as does the word 'Art'.
  18. Curing cancer is woke. https://www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025/04/06/nih-firings-cancer-immunotherapy-treatment/
  19. It was a paid gig, more work involved than smoking weed. Probably could have though. I really did it to fill time after the oldest started daycare and my wife was pregnant and I knew I was going to be staying home for a while again.
  20. Hey! That's my close family you're talking about! But honestly, they can get fucked. I don't give a shit.
  21. Sex Panther. I'm not an amateur.
  22. It gets you on the edge of your seat, does it not? I miss being bored.
  23. So what's the point in terrorists attacking if it doesn't garner any outrage? He Made America Safe Again!
  24. Heard talk that this would devastate children's cardiac programs, possibly causing them to shut down, as much of the very specialized equipment is produced in Germany. Killing kids to stick it to the libs!
