  1. Grateful for the rain and actual weather beyond weeks of straight sunshine hellfire…but these midnight thunderstorms fucking with my kids sleep makes everyone miserable (78613).
  2. I’m no Strategy nut, but I bet we stick with the rotation to stay on schedule. It may be overkill for Niagara, but the initial goal has to be 2-0…though I don’t see Niagara as anything like ORU. Also keeps everyone on normal rest if you make it to the Supers. Would love to see Benge locking down in game 3 to get out at 3-0. Then again Nebraska is red hot and Florida can suddenly wake up with all that talent. Will see.
  3. Hell yeah boys. Felt like Walton has the rotation dialed in well for a 3, maybe 4 game regional. Just wish we fielded better. And of course avoid recent enshitification. Still, will take the hardware and momentum.
  4. Personally I’m hoping it goes like last time this came up with those assholes…too much bickering/legislative energy ‘wasted’ on fighting over school vouchers, border, etc. Of course, Abbot was successful on his efforts to Primary any dissenters and I’m worried it’ll go like his pardon recently…all those involved were appointed by the Texas Terrible Triad of Abbot/Paxton/Patrick. The D8/D9 products have done me really well as a surrogate to the real deal…helpful for sleep, drinking less, and often works to setup a nice evening with the wife. I’m all for regulating it…hate that you can buy it in gas stations, only self-imposed quality oversight, and places where it’s legal it comes in child resistant packaging. A nightmare of mine is my kids getting into the gummies, so I have a special lock box for it. Actually implementing this will kill a ton of small businesses, impact chronic pain sufferers/veterans, and be another reason to hate what Texas has become the past 22 years I’ve lived here.
  5. I’d also read he’s having issues with his speech now, dropping thinly veiled racist comments before muttering ‘interesting’. Scientists are now investigating his sudden infatuation with backwards cowboy hats
  6. Baltimore branch of the FBI just put out an APB for this man
  7. I expected a lot more fire and needless drama from the defense on cross…bet Trump is pissed (if he even heard any of it during nappy time). I’m biased, but the prosecution laid out a clear path to how TrumpCo is essentially a mob-style personality cult that minimized any form of traceable communications while attempting to hide hush payments illegally. But, given the ratio of hidden Trumpers in the country, I have little faith in the jury to reach consensus. That oaf will proclaim he can sleep through trials and still be found not guilty.
  8. Yeah but I’d argue Pretty Lights is not ODESZA, at least not once Say My Name came out…got a lot of actual crossover radio play. They also are/were Grammy nominating machines. I mean who knows, stage/day is part of the allure in speculating on once the lineup is out. Selfishly I hope he’s not a Sunday closer, because by then most of the crew/myself are about done and have to work the next day. He throws out a unique blend of soul/groove that was a big chunk of the soundtrack back in my early 30’s. When we saw him at the backyard in like 2012, I was 32 and felt old even then…curious the crowd he draws.
  9. My guess would be Friday night, opposite of a big name…the ones that shutdown 30m before the closer. At least I hope so, and that they don’t jam him into one of the smaller side stages at 4p like Flight Facilities was.
  10. Been itching to see Pretty Lights again for like a decade. Better be at night. Yeah he’s one step below Girl Talk for ‘push play and turn knobs’ but I always enjoy an upbeat, electronica-ish jam fast when it’s cooler and I need a second wind.
  11. Live look at Brisket (holla to any Crystal Method fans)
  12. I know this topic is soon to be resolved to everyone’s satisfaction here in the New Surly Journal of Medicine, so someone dust off the Covid Origin thread and we can figure that one out next.
  13. I figured you’d be elated at these developments
  14. No but engagement sells ads
  15. I see we’ve long since reached the ‘new poster/sock fearlessly jumping into the most contentious thread of the week to furiously spew knowledge and contrarian viewpoints’ stage
  16. Oh we’re here
  17. When did Kanye turn into Uncle Ruckus
  18. I don’t know about learning the language but when you run into an issue there’ll be a heavily accented Indian dude with a thick mustache and neon pastel graphics that has all the answers in a YouTube video. That incredibly helpful dude and Stack Overflow got me through grad school.
  19. por favor no cruce enfrente del autobus
  20. Probably because she expects all kinds of dick-waving confidence until she hears a sharp crack, a loud curse, and comes into the room as you stare at a long crack in the panel. There’s always that one nail that’s a total cast iron bitch
