  1. Fogo was our go-to finals celebration meal several times back in the day. 20 year-old me was not about to spend $30 on lunch and not need to be rolled out of the building 2 hours later.
  2. It's crazy to think that 3-4 months ago JD Vance was probably thinking he would become president in the next 4 years, or at least be the frontrunner for the next nomination. And most of us had never heard of Tim Walz. Now, Vance could have his political career destroyed while Walz came out of nowhere to be next in line for the presidency. Just a nice thing to think about on the eve of one of our nation's defining moments. Mostly Vance realizing how his fate has potentially changed. I hope he has a really bad next 24-36 hours.
  3. Yea, it bothers me when they say the race is "tied". Ain't no votes been counted yet. That's like saying a pick 'em football game is tied before it has even started. Yea, at 0. Because kickoff hasn't occurred yet.
  4. My 2 year-old and 1 month-old have both been in the voting booth with me. Yet when I try to turn on MSNBC for election coverage, all I hear is "Noooooo, want watch Trash Truck!". Youths...
  5. I've barely touched my bins since baby #2 arrived a month ago, but I did stumble upon a flock of least sandpipers. Wouldn't be particularly notable, except it was my 200th species I've recorded within 2 miles of the Round Rock home we moved to about 2 years ago. Not bad for suburbia. Nice flyover osprey and sharp-shinned hawks today as well. These birds are about the only reason I know winter is coming.
  6. He throws a casual, annual 100-plus person party, so he should be able to handle a few dozen depressed internet degenerates. And I'm willing to bet the bar will be fully stocked.
  7. Not sure if it's been posted because I wasn't looking for it, but Smithley had a PA drop yesterday. 400k D/R 479 D+I/R So I'm guessing that just leaves mail-in trickling in over the weekend.
  8. Do we get a "I hate Ann Selzer!!!" truth from Dotard tonight? Or is that reserved for celebrities?
  9. How lucky are we that the politician who inspired half the nation to beg for autocracy and his bumbling sidekick, the world's richest man, are both kind of fucking idiots?
  10. I've said it before, but @Js1 has put me into a zen-like state the last 2 weeks. He's either Morpheus, seeing the prophecy of our salvation unfolding, or I am Cypher, allowing myself to be willfully deluded in order to avoid dealing with the coming horror.
  11. 188 × 0.4 = 75k added for indies, no? Shouldn't that be closer to 469k?
  12. That's really not cool. You can't take your phone out and take pictures within 100 ft of a polling station.
  13. Bare hands only. And you better hope it's a kitten or you're fucked.
  14. I have zero sympathy for people whose outdoor cats get eaten by a wild animal. Or for people who let their dogs off leash in places they shouldn't be, for that matter. Turnabout is fair play
  15. I'm still working on subtracting 3-digit numbers in my head, with varying degrees of success.
  16. Can we do that? Selfishly, I'd love to give away Montgomery County, Katy and most of suburban/exurban DFW, but this may be easier and make more sense electorally.
  17. It's honestly amazing that more of the racist shit from that rally isn't getting more buzz. Well, it should be anyway. Calling Kamala Samoan-Malaysian, like every brown person is the same and lesser? Tucker Carlson being in any way attached to a campaign should be a disqualifier in and of itself.
  18. Good reminder. We had one for our first kid and now that the newborn is here, I need to find it again.
  19. No increase for dems in PA drop today. Delayed drop of D counties or R returns finally catching up?
