  1. Probably not. They used Reddit or Discord for discussions. Even if they would show up, this place isn't exactly inviting or welcoming to new people. But I'll wait for immamac to come back and probably tell me how I don't know anything or be his usual belligerent self and then wonder why maybe people don't want to donate more or do more things with this version of Surly.
  2. Hey thanks for listening to feedback!
  3. Removing rep is the first step. You want to foster a better environment then stop having a system where people leave others a middle finger when they disagree with their posts. I turned off notifications for rep and it's very enjoyable. Stop making a system where people feel they have some weird power to remove those they simply can't just ignore. More people need to utilize the ignore feature especially if CR type posts from people bother them. Or maybe just practice some self-control and not respond to people.
  4. No, it's a real place. It was a pizza spot near Fair Park that sold Small Brewpub beers. Small Brewpub closed during Covid but I guess brought back their beers for this place. The Black Pepper Pils was pretty good. Terrible spot though in an area people just aren't going to go to. It's turning into a Mexican restaurant/bar. I'm not sure what brewery closing newsletter Greenspoint subscribes to.
  5. Me and the youngest child watched the first two episodes of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man last night on Disney+. Pretty enjoyable. The animation can be a bit jarring at times but it does a good job of recreating a comic book panel. It seems similar to Tom Holland's Spider-Man as far as a younger May and I think it's the same high school.
  6. Nice of Atalanta to draw with Barca. Our possible opponents are PSG/Benfica/Monaco/Brest.
  7. Michael Oliver is a travesty in any league
  8. Andy with the unintentional nutmeg
  9. That was an impressive top shelf shot.
  10. Elvis Andrus is going to do pre and post for the new channel. https://x.com/Rangers/status/1884697069530611849
  11. I was about to say this game might end scoreless since no one has the ability to hold onto a wide open pass and do something with it. Gakpo on a penalty that I don't get but I'll take it.
  12. Yeah but the "shake things up" only is until it directly affects them.
  13. There's no easy way to do it, man.. Lord knows I didn't handle the entire situation well with my kids. I'm sure you did your best. Your old man would agree with that.
  14. I got this in my inbox this morning: https://www.mlb.com/rangers/schedule/programming?partnerId=it-20250128-12433331-tex-1-A&utm_id=it-20250128-12433331-tex-1-A It says Spectrum will be 448. DirecTV 677. U-Verse (that still exists?) 1752. DirecTV looks like the FSN/Bally's auxiliary channel. It also says Victory+ will allow users to authenticate their cable and satellite accounts to access the streaming content. First OTA game on CW33 will be the Friday, March 28th game against Boston.
  15. Do I get to declare "prima nocta" or is that only for the oligarchs?
  16. Susie is great but the real treat is Luke Kirby. I don't want to give away his character but he does a fantastic job.
  17. 15 OTA games according to Evan Grant on CW33 in Dallas and other channels in Texas. He said in a reply that YouTube TV could be a deal they're working on but it's just not part of the announced deal that's already been hammered out.
  18. The soft bigotry of low expectations.
  19. Hey, let's all give our ledge leader a kind word on his Daily Texan thread.
  20. I'm sorry for your loss, Brisket. We're coming up on 10 years this May that mdleast and I lost our dad to cancer. I miss the talks we would have sitting on his front porch and the wisdom he would try to impart on me even if I wasn't ready or open to listen. I don't think I really felt like an adult until my dad passed. I realized I was on my own on how to be a man and a dad. What I wouldn't give to get to have another talk with him and catch him up on the past 10 years. Please give yourself time to grieve. There's a strange rush of planning and getting affairs in order that sometimes you just need to sit down and have a good cry about it.
  21. Honestly, I was shocked they didn't do a forced return to office or you're let go. I feel that's not legal but when has that stopped him. I guess this is an easier way to get rid of the people who aren't loyalists and then either replace them with a loyalist who can root out others from the inside or simply eliminate the position.
  22. Coming to the Federal Government, buyouts to shrink staff. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/28/trump-buyouts-federal-workers.html
