  1. Past hour
  2. Little more CR than we'd like to see on the Football board, but aggy gonna aggy:
  3. And fuckin fat cholas
  4. Considering how few people even know how to swing a hammer it would be interesting to see that pivot in workforce.
  5. What are the OL grades for their OL? It could be better than our experienced OL. I expect it to be like the OSU game, but with them having more downfield passing game. Again, the team with the fewest turnovers/penalties will likely win and that isn't favoring Texas at this point.
  6. BOTH SIDES CANCEL CULTURE REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
  7. a thread about *literally anything* and Johnny posts about his ranch, his family ranches, his money, his connections. quelle surprise
  8. Well then good work indeed on attempting to find challengers. I live in the part of Austin that is not Austin, just NW of the city limit. I was born and raised in Austin, lived there the first 43 years of my life. But of course, since my entire family lives in Austin and I spend a great deal of my time there, the status of both police enforcement, and prosecution, ultimately affect me.
  9. If you're in your mom probably
  10. South Bend is in a valley bellow a mountain range? Silly aggy…..
  11. He was a good shit between the pipes, even though it’s always fuck Les Habs. The Bruins actually drafted him and then traded him a few weeks later. Whoops.
  12. Just admit it, he owned you with his autism.
  13. Then she went on Twitter and seemed to blame some combination of a heavy workload and fear of being the sole vote against, which is not an excuse I have ever seen before from a council member for a vote they regret.
  14. @Fastbreak to the burnt orange courtesy phone
  15. Somebody has to harvest those grapes, butcher the chickens, and build shit now that ICE Barbie is running the ebil brown criminals out of our sacred envy-of-the-world country.
  16. Vic Mackey: All-American football player… who knew?
  17. I joke I keed
  18. Two jokes: and It must be so cool to see all those exotic cars in Montana!
  19. I have literally never downplayed the shittiness of Garza and personally attempted to recruit* both primary and general election challengers So… no. That said, it is a fact that Garza’s shittiness is directly provided as a justification both here, in real life, and sometimes officers themselves and their union for why the police product we get from APD is so mediocre. What part of Austin do you live in? *as far as I can tell nobody good wants the job 🤷
  20. At some point as a society we went from: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." To: "When you say something I disagree with, you are the embodiment of evil and must be silenced." Whenever I walked through the West Mall, I would laugh at the chuckleheads shouting from atop their milk crates. I even remember going to see a few speakers on campus who had very different views than I did and thinking "well, that guy is an asshole." But it would have been antithetical to me to want to tar and feather them. A few wedge issues where there is a black/white worldview and you fall to one side or the other have amplified this problem. To pick one from both sides: abortion and Palestine. Many people have heartfelt views on either side of those issues. It's very easy to cast the "others" on the opposite side as uncaring and evil. If you believe "words are violence" all of the sudden you are justified, in fact obligated to shut them down, shout them down, silence them, de-platform them, and demand their firing. And if you extend that, all of those consequences should not just be reserved for the speaker but also anyone who follows them, anyone who provides them with a platform, anyone who scheduled them so speak on campus and so on. There are plenty of proximate causes for the coarsening of our society: softer parenting styles, everyone-gets-a-trophy culture, social media, but my candidate is the rise of narcissism. Plenty of studies have shown that narcissism has increased, especially in the past 15-20 years since social media became widespread. It tracks: in an influencer-culture, where it's all about look-at-me, you become the center of your own world. Any disruption to that is a Bad Thing for you. When you're surrounded by amplification of your worldview by the algorithms, your internal antibodies will be strongly programmed to reject any opposing view. #MeToo, Cancel Culture, DEI, and now their analogues on the right-side have taught those who seek power that you can "defeat the evil" by getting people fired, shouting them down, getting corporations to stop working with them, or removing them from a platform. Give that mouse a cookie and he wants a glass of milk, and it leads to more.
  21. And the safety was coming over so it could have been knocked down or intercepted. The safety fell down so we don't know where he would've ended up. He put the ball in the right place.
