  1. I don't agree with the criticism of Lia Thomas. Can you really blame them for operating within the rules of the system? We allow people to change the gender on their birth certificate. Some states are allowing parents to put an X on their child's birth certificate for gender. Title IX guarantees Lia Thomas the right to compete and you can't deny that right on the basis of sex. This is the result of a system so many people have fought to create. Is it fair? Probably not. I think it's ridiculous that Thomas is our women's national champion in college swimming. But the only people who seem to be really vocal about it are men. Why aren't the athletes speaking out? BTW that's a rhetorical question. We all know why they're not speaking out.
  2. I'm really interested in 3D printed firearms but I don't know how people get started in that hobby. Anyone seen the YouTube channel "Print Shoot Repeat"?
  3. Why the fuck did Shaka abandon havoc? It was the only reason we hired him away from VCU. He went from being a schematic genius to a guy I wouldn't hire for intramurals
  4. Dealing with the general public sucks. I thought it was bad in health care but apparently it's also terrible in the tire business. Got a flat tire on my lunch break and drive to Discount Tire for a fix (tire warranty and the only place willing to operate on my Tesla). I'm chilling in the lobby and this happens as someone walks in Employee: Hey welcome to Discount Tire, how can I help you? Customer:.........excuse me? Employee: How can I help you? Customer: 1:30pm Employee: Okay. Do you have an appointment with us for 1:30pm? Customer: That's what I just said. I'm early and want service now. You're not busy at all. What the fuck is wrong with people?
  5. I can't remember the last time I changed a clock. Is that still a thing? Every clock I have is automatic
  6. I had diarrhea during landing on a flight from Tokyo. It was awful. Not the painful cramps from the diarrhea but I kept wiping and wiping and wiping and it just wouldn't come out clean. I probably wiped at least 50 times. Never trust airport sushi
  7. Okay this post is a perfect place for me to rant about COVID tests (also promise this isn't CR). We've been doing them for a few weeks for foreign travelers and cruise ships. I'm ready to stop because the amount of backlash I'm getting is ridiculous. Our old form used to be like an a la carte where we would check which test was given (rapid or PCR) and whether you were positive or negative. One patient said the airline wouldn't accept their negative PCR test because it had the word "rapid" on the form. I'm looking at the form and the only place "rapid" appears is for the rapid test. But they didn't get a rapid test, they got the PCR and it doesn't say rapid anywhere. They put me on the phone with the airline rep who says the same shit and I almost lose it. "Do you see where the PCR test is selected? It doesn't say rapid.". "But it says rapid on this other test". "They didn't take that test, it's not checked off. The PCR test is checked off and it says negative." We make a new form where it's only PCR and only rapid. Cruise ship in Galveston won't accept it. Why? Because I signed the form. The cruise line says my signature has to be printed on the form. So instead of having a professional looking form with a wet to paper signature from a health care provider, it's now typed on the form. It looks so fucking fake but it's the only way they'll accept it. Oh it gets even better. Saturday I get a call from a patient who isn't being let on a cruise ship by a different company because I didn't put the time the test was performed on the form. They require a negative test within 72 hours of arrival. Can you guess when we did the test? It was Friday. The day before. So it doesn't matter whether I did the test at 12:01am or 11:59pm on Friday, it's within 72 hours of arrival. But that's not good enough for this company. What. The. Fuck.
  8. It was just okay. A lot better than my last visit in 2018 or 2019 but the overall quality has definitely taken a nose dive.
  9. This was Pecan Lodge 5 minutes after opening today. We had a wind chill in the 30s this morning so that might have been a factor. I've always known this place to have a line out the door. My oh my how things have changed.
  10. The 2022 spring training 9TWENTY hat is fucking GARBAGE. Doesn't even fit my head. All you gotta do is blow in my face and it will come off. New Era used to make good hats but now they're all dog shit garbage
  11. His closing statement was a setup for another grift. He's going to attempt suicide and he might even go all the way with the goal of proving his innocence and the system being racist.
  12. So all ticket packages are $500 and the only difference is the "donation"? Am I reading today's email correctly? Not that it matters as I'm in the 1900s for priority and probably won't get to pick a seat
  13. I deeply regret not buying into my old Dallas neighborhood when I had the chance. 400k for a townhouse just didn't make sense. Now it's what I'm begging for lol
  14. Having been on the business and vehicle side of liability/insurance issues, I'm gonna go against the herd and say use your insurance. I don't trust people to be honest nor do I trust my ability to get a document signed that releases me from future issues and have that release not get thrown out by a court. I could also be a little biased because I work in health care and know how to play the deductible/max oop game. It's honestly a gamble at times and you don't want to be on the losing side. If a major situation happens and you've been fronting cash the entire time you are beyond fucked.
  15. The only plan I have is to live long enough to get revenge.
  16. AT&T stores are fuckin weird. Last time I was at one they asked for my ID and then wanted me to pay $50 today and the rest of the balance of the phone a week later. Told them I wasn't going to show ID for a phone and they wouldn't let me pay full price for it. Well fuck it, went to Best Buy across the street and got the phone with no problem.
  17. This is going around Twitter right now. Sorry for double post
  18. Van Taylor is in bed with an ISIS bride? What the fuck?
  19. Sorry if this is the wrong topic but have any of you had issues with foreign travel and covid testing proof? We've been doing outpatient testing for awhile and people are saying our forms aren't sufficient because results aren't printed. They object to results with a handwritten signature and date. What the fuck is that about?
  20. I wouldn't put much into that. Both can be true that conservatives and progressives are surging down south. 2024 could be a make or break year for both parties in that region tbh
  21. Dallas County commissioner race got really interesting. I was expecting Andrew Sommerman to win but he got edged out by Michelle Ocker and they'll both move to a run off. Philip Kingston who was widely considered the favorite on name recognition got 17% of the vote. Looks like his popularity doesn't extend beyond his old city council district.
  22. Do Not Call registry is bogus. Turn your phone to do not disturb mode and only accept incoming calls/texts from folks in your contacts list.
  23. Hope I made some of you rich!
  24. If the Ukrainians don't fight back, welcome to World War 3
