  1. Past hour
  2. it is mind-bendingly insane to me that people are sharing such close intimate details with a chatbot application owned by google, or microsoft, or ANY company that harvests userdata like this. There is a shocking lack of digital literacy, not to mention plain-old literacy
  3. I figured I would stay in District 10 because McCaul’s house looks down on my backyard, but it is just insane how it carves up just a sliver of Travis and then goes over and grabs rural East Texas.
  4. If I am on a plane she starts saying that shit, I want her off.
  5. Blowback of world opinion: This is from early June, so it likely doesn't include the full impact of the ongoing forced starvation of Palestinian civilians. Only two of the 24 nations surveyed still have a positive opinion of Israel. https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2025/06/03/most-people-across-24-surveyed-countries-have-negative-views-of-israel-and-netanyahu/
  6. You gonna disrespect your stepdad on a message board?
  7. get out the vote is the best way to fight back
  8. Fun trivia facts: She was a few months pregnant at the time of the shoot. They used shaving cream instead of whipped cream, because the latter would melt too quickly under the lights. And her name was Dolores Erickson.
  9. Seems like a real high price for Freddy Fermin.
  10. Canada to Recognize Palestinian State at the U.N. General Assembly Canada joins France and Britain in taking similar steps, after months of increasing criticism of Israel by Prime Minister Mark Carney. Canada said on Wednesday that it would recognize Palestine as a state, if the Palestinian Authority commits to making certain changes including holding elections. Prime Minister Mark Carney said he had received assurances that such changes would be carried out in a call with the Palestinian leader, Mahmoud Abbas, and plans to formally recognize Palestine during the United Nations General Assembly in September. “The deepening suffering of civilians leaves no room for delaying coordinated international action to support peace, security and the dignity of human life,” Mr. Carney said following a cabinet meeting largely focused on Gaza. In recent days, Mr. Carney and others in his government — as well as leaders in France and Britain — have condemned the growing humanitarian crisis and rising starvation in Gaza, which Mr. Carney blamed on Israel’s refusal to cede control of aid to international organizations. Gaza health officials say dozens of people, including children, have died of starvation in recent weeks. The dramatic policy reversal by Canada follows similar ones by France and Britain, increasing the pressure on Israel to end the nearly two-year-old war in the Gaza Strip. Israel swiftly condemned the announcement.
  11. Depends on what he offered in beverages...
  12. If they are successful, expect every property in the state to have a congressional district that includes coastline.
  13. My pet idea is to fracture Congress so instead of one member per district we would have multiple sub-Congressional bodies with one member per body per district, where each body more or less has the same "jurisdiction" as the current Congressional committees. That would in theory allow each district to send someone who truly represents its interests at a greater granularity. For example, a Houston district can send a pro-Oil MAGA guy to the Energy body and anti-MAGA pro-Immigration guys to the Homeland Security body, the Foreign Affairs body, and the Judiciary body.
  14. A couple years ago, we went to boston, and I had a really good stout near harvard. It was by a maine brewery called mast landing. The beer is gunner’s daughter. I looked for it in every restaurant we went to last week. It was at only one of them. West Street Cafe in bar harbor. Damn it was good.
  15. And brings in a few bucks. Team dinner at Outback Steakhouse! (One appetizer only, please)
  16. Bednar to NYY. Flores was the price, Helo.
  17. I know that Bernie is an independent - however, why is Bernie forcing D senators to take this vote? It only forces you to piss someone off in your state. I may actually agree with the policy but taking these votes when they have zero chance to pass may have negative ramifications as you try to win seats in 2026. You can’t enact better policies until you have a majority.
  18. Nick Young that used to play for the Wizards with Gil and then later for the Lakers
  19. A lot of big talk in this OpEd appearing in today's NYTimes about Texas Dems being fed up with this redistricting push and ready to fight. We'll see.

  20. Plus it's Chas and Carrot tini. You make that move 10/10
  21. I think they’re considering unloading Cease because he will walk after this season, has been inconsistent, and they have pitching depth they can trade from to address holes in their lineup.
