  1. Past hour
  2. I would like to take this opportunity to say fuck Merrick Garland
  3. Except Obama did nothing. Trump actually attempted to overthrow the government violently.
  4. Unfortunately no. I got the rejection letter today.
  5. BattleTech! My new LGS has a good group running the Battle of Tukayyid as part of a big ass Clan Invasion campaign. I'm pretty familiar with the breadth of the rules from playing for decades with my dad and buddies, so I think it'll be a good acid test for something that's actually useful. My M4 MBP should have enough juice to run it all locally - at least that's the theory I'm testing You can spend a BUNCH of time trying to find the right rule for this specific instance, and it would be nice to have a citation machine that can point out the specific rules that tell me what modifiers I get, or if there REALLY is a rule for ripping your opponents mech arm off and beating them with it
  6. Even more than that, I think. But I've never looked into it closely, because we're not pathetic losers.
  7. Any fan of a current Big 12 school who wants to get into the SEC or Big 10 at this point is an idiot. From an actual fan perspective. Of course every single athletic administrator would fall all over themselves at the chance. The Big 12 schools (and most ACC ones) should be focusing their efforts less on getting invited into those leagues and more about coalescing as a product that stays included on the field in major college football. You'll never get the payday, but if you get to stay part of the mix, it's as good as you can do. The factors required for inclusion in those leagues going forward are fixed and in the past. You can't win your way in, you can't buy your way in. If you didn't start building your brand 50 years ago, or have been grandfathered in, it's over. There's no room for new money in that tree fort. Tech has struggled in the Big 12 for the better part of the last 15 years. They'd fare worse in the SEC. They'd be fucking miserable. They could do the chant though.
  8. I am not sure just saying Trump never fucked the girls is enough. She is going to say he was never even on the island and they barely knew him. Also Obama was the real pedo!
  9. I saw James Comer rule out that very obvious possibility today. Something like “Yeah we’re not offering immunity to a child sex trafficker.” Well, yeah, you certainly wouldn’t think so. Would you.
  10. Can’t we claim 3-4 more if we wanted to be pathetic losers like aggy?
  11. So, our back and side yards are well enclosed and we let our boys roam them mostly at will. Their murderous tendencies, if any, are thus restrained. Last night, I was trying to coax Wheezer to come in the house so we could go to bed. In the course of that "negotiation," I looked down to the far end of the side yard and saw something moving. Turned out to be an opossum that beat a hasty retreat under the fence. Wheezer ran toward it, but stopped about halfway. And at that point, Wheezer did not want to come in, so I let him play for a bit. After about 15 minutes, I went back out and Wheezer was acting like he had caught something, usually a bug, that he had pinned with his paws and he was looking down at it. As I got closer, I saw some dark fur, and I was like oh shit and it was a fairly big patch of fur so I thought it was a pretty hefty rat. Then I saw the tail and realized it was a young opossum that seemed to be, well, playing possum. I didn't see any injuries or blood so I distracted Wheezer and was kind of chasing him a few steps here and there and I looked back and the young opossum had stood up and I guess was preparing to flee. I managed to herd Wheezer into the house and hopefully saved the young marsupial. It seems that playing possum was the perfect move because Wheezer is young enough that hunting and playing are the same thing (as if they ever really grow out of it) and by not reacting to his actions, Wheeze was just kind of looking at it instead of swatting and biting. Seems maybe the first opossum I saw might have been Mama chasing after a youngun that Wheezer subsequently found.
  12. Trade #12 accepted How many can I get to before the trade deadline? 🤣
  13. Dude. That pretty much flies in the face of.....everything about America these days. Commie.
  14. You don't even need this qualifier. Texas' 1970 Coaches' Poll title is valid. That's all that needs to be said. The Coaches' Poll and the AP Poll titles are valid, and have always been valid, regardless of their timing.
  15. Because when you look in the various statutes and civil codes and codes of civil procedure in any state, none of them say “please disregard this mandate if the families want to do something different”. The purpose of a criminal justice system is to use scarce resources to obtain the best, quickest, most cost effective means to find and punish criminals. That’s it. And then there’s the fact that families reacting in a situation like this are at their most emotional and least rational and intelligent state. It’s generally best not to hand over the driving wheel to the most emotional and unintelligent person in the car.
  16. troph

    Getting old sucks

  17. Holy shit.
  18. Nixon handed DKR the 1969 trophy but your point is valid. 1970 title is way more valid than those aggy computer ones from a century ago that were "awarded" decades after the season.
  19. ahhh the good ol DMV... gonna need someone to explain where exactly that is again 👀
  20. I need a bigger house. https://www.austinpetsalive.org/adopt/dogs
  21. Joe just keeps lighting explosives with progressively shorter fuses. It's as if he's obsessed with finding out where the absolute escapable limit is. At most, we have to be within a few millimeters of it today.
