    Pearl Jam

    Ah, that's what I was thinking of.
  3. I knew there was a reason I never threw away those hard drives from college!
  4. Today
  5. 3/17, 2B, 3 RBI, 8 K for Leody in Sea so far.
  6. Does San Marcos feel like old Austin?
  7. I had Casamigos once, it was sickly sweet. Vowed never to drink it again.
  8. Yep. He was also never going to develop in Dallas like he did in NY in a Luka centered offense.
  9. In his feeble mind TFG thinks that we just cut bait with suppliers in China and other countries and then by some form of witchcraft FACTORIES OPEN UP EVERYWHERE IN 'MERICA! His moron cult will go right along with that and be pissed that their local Rust Belt factory hasn't already opened back up to give them a job again. This is why TFG loves uneducated people like himself. It's easy to lie to them and they won't realize they're being played. It'll always be the fault of some Radical Democrat.
  10. This is what I love about Surly... an old comment, question asked and answered three years later within an hour (and the pancakes sound great). OTOH, though I didn't know him personally, reading through this thread made me miss Lobo (and Anthony Bourdain). Plus we don't have Waffle House here and now I miss the one down the street from where I used to live in South Carolina, fondly and somewhat accurately called the Awful House.
  11. And by the way, the definition of what they consider to be obscene covers a shitload of your typical R-rated movies and TV shows.
  12. Are you employed by Amazon and have you been pooping on people's porches and lawns? https://www.fox7austin.com/news/amazon-delivery-driver-pooping-on-porch-video
  13. We knew they were going to make a run at all porn - it's what all of this was leading up to, to see how much people would tolerate in terms of barriers put in place against porn. I remember people saying that Texas wouldn't try and block porn, and well, they did with the age verification bullshit (really just a way to get a list of everybody trying to access porn). Stock up on your porn, I expect this to move through pretty fast. This was a centerpiece for a lot of the Project 2025 people. Lee Bill Establishes Obscenity Definition Across States - Mike Lee US Senator fo... U.S. Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) introduced the Interstate Obscenity Definition Act today to clarify the legal definition of “obscenity” for all states, making the transmission of obscene content across state lines more easily prosecuted. U.S. Representative Mary Miller (R-IL) is the bill’s co-lead in the House of Representatives. “Obscenity isn’t protected by the First Amendment, but hazy and unenforceable legal definitions have allowed extreme pornography to saturate American society and reach countless children,” said Senator Mike Lee. “Our bill updates the legal definition of obscenity for the internet age so this content can be taken down and its peddlers prosecuted.” “The Interstate Obscenity Definition Act equips law enforcement with the tools they need to target and remove obscene material from the internet, which is alarmingly destructive and far outside the bounds of protected free speech under the Constitution. I’m proud to lead this effort in the House with Senator Lee to safeguard American families and ensure this dangerous material is kept out of our homes and off our screens.” – Representative Mary Miller The Interstate Obscenity Definition Act (IODA) clarifies the definition of obscenity across all states and provides updated descriptions suited to modern content. The new definition removes dependence on ever-changing and elusive public opinion, replacing ambiguity with practical standards to make obscenity identifiable. This change will prevent obscene material such as pornography from evading prosecution by relying on the legal confusion of differing standards between states. Under IODA, law enforcement will be empowered to identify and prevent obscenity from being transmitted across state lines. Obscenity is already unprotected speech under the First Amendment, but its current definition makes it difficult to assess and prosecute. The current legal definition of obscenity was taken from a Supreme Court case argued in 1973. Its standards are subjective and vague, making it difficult to apply with certainty to any given material. Using a pre-internet standard for modern times presents serious challenges – particularly when states use differing definitions for “obscenity” – and allows criminals to evade prosecution. The Interstate Obscenity Definition Act (IODA): Defines “obscenity” within the Communications Act of 1934 as content that: taken as a whole, appeals to the prurient interest in nudity, sex, or excretion, depicts, describes or represents actual or simulated sexual acts with the objective intent to arouse, titillate, or gratify the sexual desires of a person, and, taken as a whole, lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value. Strengthens the existing general prohibition on obscenity in the Communications Act (47 U.S.C 223(a)) by removing the “intent” requirement that only prohibits the transmission of obscenity for the purposes abusing, threatening, or harassing a person. EXCLUSIVE: New GOP Bill Seeks To Take Sledgehammer To Online Porn Industry | The Daily Caller Congressional Republicans will introduce legislation Thursday that would severely crack down on internet pornography and potentially deal a major blow to the online porn industry. Republican Utah Sen. Mike Lee and Republican Illinois Rep. Mary Miller’s Interstate Obscenity Definition Act would create a national definition of obscenity under the Communications Act of 1934 and amend the Supreme Court’s 1973 “Miller Test” for determining what qualifies as obscene, according to background on the bill exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. The bill would pave the way for the prosecution of obscene content disseminated across state lines or from foreign countries and open the door to federal restrictions or bans regarding online porn
  14. Yeah, that sucks.
  15. Josh Garcia. Great, funny guy and also a Longhorn.
  16. It’s race week so of course the whole house is extremely sick. I just woke up to puke and shit non stop. Good news is that this should pass in about 15 more hours.
  17. I wonder what his arm length looks like now
  18. That Cabrera injury is nasty
  19. The Snowdrift Porter in the Fall is decent by Leinie.
  20. How is no one talking about the Jesse coming out of fucking no where to save the damsels in distress? I mean, talk about some dumb bullshit, how the fuck would he know it was them in the random building surrounded by guard towers on either side? And then he heroically grabs Dina, carries her out of the woods and whisks her off to safety after they were spotted by the forest people? C'mon man, that's just silly.
  21. If we don't get Giannis I don't think you can pass on a player like Harper. This is why I wanted the Spurs to get the 1st pick but theres always a chance the Mavs talk themselves out of Flagg
  22. Thank you for your input.
