csb/ I was dropping my kid off at school this morning and Dorbah walked in front of my car. He looked at me...I threw him a hook em and gave him a "you know what's up" nod. He smiled big, gave me a chin nod of acknowledgment and kept walking. Pretty sure that meant something.11 points

“But Hillary!” ”Both SiDeS!” ”The system is broken because it gave us Hillary!” lulz The mental gymnastics required to deflect from the current state of the White House is amazing. Hillary’s primary flaw was being the subject of a decades long campaign of bashing by Fox News, talking heads, radio hosts to the point that people just accept that “Hillary = corruption” without any evidence.7 points

lol Is Hannity that out of touch that he doesn’t realize that makes Beto look cool AF? Well, I guess not to his Depends, denture wearing audience. “Bernice!!! Get in here! Hannity says that Bay-toe fella is some kind of LSD taking warlock!!!!” “Warlock? What in tarnation is that?” “No, wait not warlock. He said warlord! I bet he’s one of them MSG-15 gang people. I bet he’s their chairman. He is from El Paso ya know. They’re into that kind of thing down there.” “Such a shame. He seemed like such a nice white young man. Glad we have Hannity and Tucker and Laura to tell us the real facts!” “Be sure to share that on Facebook so the kids and grandchildren know that Bay-toe takes the LSD and is running a gang. They don’t watch the real news and they need to know about this!”7 points

So I was walking down the street about a block away from the ARCH this morning and, as tends to happen all the fucking time these days, was approached by a homeless person who wanted money. Sometimes I give them money, more often I don’t. When you don’t want to give, the best answer is ‘No.’ No explanation, no apology, just short and to the point let them know they’re not getting anything from you so they can move on to the next prospect. This guy didn’t give up, though; he asked if I don’t have any money, or if I just don’t give a shit about the problem. I replied, fairly honestly, that I’d given away quite a bit of money lately and I was just tired of it. He goes on about how money is not the answer anyway; I said, well, I don’t have a job for you either. He said yeah, but you have influence with the city and you can help get some things changed. I don’t have any particular influence in the city, but to shut him up I said, OK, what is your proposal? Oh, I got lots of them, he said; I figured he was full of shit and I’d be able to end the encounter, but after gathering his thoughts, it turned out he really did have lots of them. To wit: Lockers for the homeless; give them a place to store some stuff so they don’t have to wear all the clothes they have and carry whatever they may have. Sounds like a good idea, I said; maybe they could do that at the ARCH. The ARCH is a fucking joke, he said; the first thing they need to do is put a policeman on that corner. Said he’d been in about 50 fights, had his backpack cut off him while he was asleep, had all his stuff stolen regularly. Seemed like a reasonable idea to me; it’s literally less than a block from APD headquarters, but the police presence there is usually zero. A vehicle that goes around in a set area, at a set time, to provide services for the homeless. Apparently the existing efforts are haphazard, and people never know when or where they will show up. Showers and laundry facilities. Only 3 of the 11 washers at ARCH are working, according to him. Tables for food drop off. Now people who want to feed the homeless have to drop the food off on the sidewalk. It’s degrading to have to eat off the ground. Clothing donations/thrift stores in the area where the homeless are. Lots of them are disabled and can’t walk even 8 or 10 blocks for these things. And Goodwill is too expensive; you need shirts and pants for 3 or 4 dollars. For people on medications, change the schedule from monthly to every 2 weeks. He said he’s bipolar schizophrenic, and his medications get stolen regularly. At least he wouldn’t have to wait a full month for a new supply, and he’d be able to stay on his meds more easily. Service point cards: I had to look this up. Apparently it’s a medical services ID card administered by … some agency or something … that folks use to pick up their medications. He noted that it’s bar coded, like a UT ID, and could be used to allow homeless to ride public transportation and bike shares for free, like the deal with UT (I don’t know what deal he was referring to; maybe there is some kind of discount for students? It’s been a long time since I was one). So they could get around and get some shit done, as he put it. Homeless sponsors: people could sponsor homeless, help them get back on their feet. I was trying to end the conversation by this point, because I’d been talking to him for about 20 minutes and I had shit to do, but it sounded like he could have fleshed this out if I’d let him. Honestly, none of these things sounded like outrageously expensive or difficult things to do; they are simple, common-sense things that would really help a lot of people in the little ways that count for much in a day-to-day struggle for survival. Life out there is not easy, and a few little things like this would help a lot. I don’t know what kind of budget the ARCH has, or if it can find room to do some of this stuff, or if a charity could pick it up. Anyway, since I have so much (nonexistent) pull with the city, I guess it’s incumbent on me to do something. So I’m posting here to have you assholes tell me why these are terrible ideas, and there’s no way any of them would work, and then I’ll have an excuse not to do anything. So let’s hear it. TL/DR: Homeless guy has some good ideas on how to improve services for the homeless.6 points

"Well, Dan, I'm not very good at football, my attitude sucks, and I have a tendency to get fucked up and embarrass myself and the team in public. Honestly, I don't even like football anymore. Everybody's bigger and faster now than they were at Southwestern Louisiana State and Lamar. So I can run good against them. Ya know? If I'm honest, I'm just hoping for one more contract so I can do some blow with some strippers for a couple more years. Then I'll go to rehab and try to get on Dancing with the Stars, and if that doesn't work, I'll coach high school ball and steal painkillers from the team doc like Ryan Leaf. Where is he these days, anyway? I would party with that dude, you know what I'm sayin? White power. Wait, shit. Can you edit that last part out?"6 points

Huh. Interesting. I value decent human behavior and civility in my home. I regularly invite people into my home and host them. I haven't ever had to post a warning or anything, but folks know that acting like a dick will result in you being asked to leave. I'm not stupid, so nobody tries the idiotic "but I was just quoting some otherwise respectable person!" gambit to get away with being a dick. I don't care who the fuck you're quoting, the best people in the world have all said and done some loathsome things. The pope may have called his mom a cunt, and said that all women are cunts in a teenage termper tantrum -- I don't care. If you say "all women are cunts" and "I was just quoting the pope," you'll still be asked to leave. There are plenty of civil discussions to be had. Just because you either forget how to do so, or never knew how to do so, gets you zero slack. Learn how to. It's about damned time that civility be treated as a social value again, and it's utterly appropriate that private spaces are the folks to bring it back. Championing internet comment sections isn't painting you or anyone else in a positive light. The cesspool of anonymity renders the marketplace of ideas inefficient. If it's an idea that is SO important and worth stating to you, then it's one that you should be happy posting on your professional website, and having your business card as a signature. If the world imposed that rule, I expect that the cesspool-type comments would go way down. You were flinging poo and getting it on the WSJ's walls. They told you to stop. If you really want to keep flinging shit, do it in your own room.5 points

If I was someone, like say Iran or Putin or extremist islam, who wanted to accelerate the downfall of America into it's final stages I would initiate another large scale terrorist attack if at all possible. The first one has brought the country to the brink of hysteria and self destruction in only 17 1/2 years. Another one would tip this country over the edge into a jingoistic abyss of fake patriotism. It would compel this weak leadership to go to war further damaging America's ever weakening financial structure while also further isolating it from other countries. Allies would not be so willing to help now that Trump has shit all over them for 2 years. As an American this should be top concern. We've weakened ourselves so much after 9/11 that another one could lead us to completely destroy ourselves.4 points

If you don’t think Trump is getting rich off this presidency, you are irredeemably retarded. I’d keep that fact from the UT main office because they’ll be asking you to hand back your diploma. But the good news for you is that you don’t think it. With regards to the above hotel quote, I was thinking about the right’s insistence on debating like this for the last few years. The whole idea is to just say stupid shit until the other side has given up on the basis of exhaustion. It’s not just here, but in the public sphere as well. It’s the single best way to prevent anything from happening. Imagine how much wouldn’t get done on any field if every time you move a step forward, someone relitigates the step behind you, regardless of how clearly it has been shown, how indisputable it is, or how tangential it is. If every physicist had to begin explaining every breakthrough with “2+2=4, therefore...” “wait, did you just say 2+2=4? What if it’s 5?” “Ok. Let’s stop and deal with that...” Think about how much more now you hear “democrats were the party of slavery” or “democrats opposed civil rights” any time any social progress topic is brought up. Oh, let’s stop the present discussion and go back to discussing the situation that literally everyone is aware of. You see, see, back then the parties were blah blah blah, what were the confederate states blah blah blah what were we taking about again? The same is Trump, a person slavishly devoted to the dollar, run fraudulent universities, fraudulent charities, never served his country in any way, making money 100 different ways for him and his hangers on. Then someone brings up stupid shit like “I don’t think he actually owns the buildings with his name on it” when we discuss the money making efforts he has. Yeah, the guy doesn’t benefit from having the ability to leverage his name into a guaranteed revenue stream. And isn’t making money through endless sale of shit. And isn’t making money through real estate moves. It’s retarded and tangential. But it’s exhausting because at some level someone wants to treat it it as a serious thought, spend 1000 words showing it, then move on, have the next inane question come up, are you saying he can discriminate?!, pause and explain that, and so on. Then as the hours pass, you can be sure someone will pose again “wait, I don’t even think Trump owns those buildings!” Victory by mental attrition is the best strategy of the people that are constantly wrong. They’ve accepted they are wrong, they are used to being wrong, so they don’t care if they say something retarded and look retarded. It’s still a point in their attrition column.4 points

Barbacoa tacos. I used chuck roast in lieu of cheek/head meat. I used dried guajillo and ancho peppers and blended them up with a chipotle in adobo, cider vinegar, lime juice, garlic, oregano, bay leaves etc. Added that and some beef broth and braised in oven for a little over 3 hours. Shredded in a bowl... Served with homemade salsa, onions, and cilantro…4 points
