  1. If anyone ever doubted Michael Dell's motivation in life then watching him suck off a Nazi-sympathizer whose platform is paving the way for a massive rise in racist, anti-semitic behavior should make it clear. How many more billions does Dell need, and how does he figure aligning himself and his company with Musk is going to help him obtain it?
  2. This is the same douchebag who traveled to an NFL game with the expense of an entire secret service security detail just so he could walk out as soon as players took a knee in an act of civil disobedience. That was at least a quarter million bucks for a photo of. By Memorial Day he'll be claiming that migrants are terrorizing his native Indiana. Red hot poker. Fuck him with it. Post haste.
  3. Vikings and Texans w/ pick swaps will make for some intrigue. Houston sends 23rd and 232nd picks to MN for the 42nd and 188th plus a second-rounder in '25. Minny armed with the #11 and #23 definitely looks like they're perched to move inside the top 3-5 for a QB.
  4. We should all be thankful that this douchebag is being exposed for the piece of shit he is now before he's immediately moved to the broadcast booth and we're forced to listen to him as a $25mm a year color commentator. Only Newsmax would touch him at this point.
  5. To me, this sums up the difference between listening and committing. Not judging at all. The sound & melody is what first pulls us in, after all I've always been a lyrics guy. What is the artist trying to tell me? Am I hearing it? What subtext is being hidden beneath the hook & confection? It's like what Scorsese said about film. The director's job is to try & make the viewer care about the filmmaker's obsession.
  6. One of my favorite concert moments was at a Bruce show (maybe The Rising tour?) When Joe Ely joined him on stage and the E Street Band backed him on All Just To Get To You. Joe just owned that stage being the consumate pro that he is, and the E Streeters proved why they're one of (maybe the?) best bar band of all time. They were all having a blast & played the shit out of that song. I've seen Joe join Bruce several times since, but that moment is burned in my brain. Joe deserved to be there.
  7. Because aggy would never admit to being duped by AI, the reasoning will be "Death has 12 digits in honor of the 12th Man, you stupid sip! Whoop!"
  8. Shit... Eric, Donny and his non-Ivanka daughter he couldn't pick out of a lineup wish they got as much attention as the grandson.
  9. And the Vikes are about to sign Aaron Jones for 1 yr/$7m which is quite nice. Dammit, they're going to give me hope again.
  10. They signed Sam Darnold for peanuts [emoji1645] which telegraphs their intent to go QB in RD1. But I'm having PTSD of Jefferson becoming Moss v2.0, spending a HOF-worthy career toiling away, racking up stats & accolades but no real hardware.
  11. Christopher Guest would've been my guess. Dang.
  12. Dialogue is the key. My challenge is dealing with a sense of failure when I can't immediately take away her discomfort or make her feel better. The best i can do is potentially alleviate some of the side effects, but there isnt a toggle switch solution. This could take years so it's part of the ride & we're gonna make the best of it together.
  13. Yeah, and I showed it to my wife. She's gotten some much needed laughs as well as made some notes to discuss with her docs at her next checkup. So go thread shit somewhere else.
