  1. I got better answers out of Dr Sbaitso 30 years ago. "WHY DO YOU FEEL THAT WAY?"
  2. Which they are doing. Oklahoma and Florida are going to be turbo-fucked every time a tornado or hurricane rolls through.
  3. If Williamson County/state of Texas says there's six confirmed cases, I wonder how many that really is.
  4. 92% critics, 85% audience in the tomato site. I’m really digging it. I honestly think if you watch the pilot, you will know right away. There’s no “you need three episodes before you get sucked in” thing going on.
  5. She was a looker.
  6. Yep. Same with Beavis and Butthead - could be the suburbs of any of the large Texas cities (and Beavis has more than a passing familiarity with Houston).
  7. Can't imagine why they are release this on a friday afternoon. 6 cases of measles confirmed in Williamson County, DSHS report says | KXAN Austin Six cases of measles have been confirmed in Williamson County, according to an update from the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) on Friday. Williamson County and Cities Health District (WCCHD) wanted to highlight that the DSHS update includes both confirmed and epidemiologically linked measles cases. “The CDC defines epidemiologically linked case: a case in which the patient has/has had contact with one or more persons who have/had the disease, and transmission of the agent by the usual modes of transmission is plausible,” a press release from WCCHD said. --- Williamson County health officials said the county has had two confirmed cases that were verified by a test. The rest are considered epidemiologically linked cases. “At this time, we are unable to provide additional details about the cases other than they are epidemiologically linked cases,” WCCHD said. Earlier this month, on May 22, Williamson County confirmed its first measles case this year. The case involved a school-age child from Leander who attended Bar W. Elementary School, according to officials. In the Friday update by DSHS, there were no changes to the number of measles cases in Travis County (2) and Hays County (1). “At this time, 738 cases have been confirmed since late January. This is an increase of nine since the May 27 update,” DSHS said in its Friday update. ---- If you check the map, while the numbers are still low, it's reached all of the major population centers in Texas.
  8. Really glad they didn’t try and whitewash things. Had to be painful for them, but at the same time cathartic.
  9. Miller is the type to either use the government to squeeze his companies, or make it clear that he’s very close to being shipped off to South America in handcuffs.
  10. Friends in Hyde Park just go their power back after two days. Gonna have to restock the Grey Poupon.
  11. Pretty sure it was supposed to be a TV show until Disney pivoted to movies again. That happened with Moana 2.
  12. It's for generating romance/porno videos of me and Sela Ward together.
  13. There's a whole lot of stuff about where King of the Hill and Beavis and Butthead are set within Texas if you want to poke around YouTube - lots of background things people see as clues, etc.
  14. Trump/Musk/RFK Jr shut down a big contract with Moderna for a bird-flu vaccine https://news.modernatx.com/news/news-details/2025/Moderna-Announces-Update-on-Investigational-Pandemic-Influenza-Program-/default.aspx The Company had previously expected to advance the program to late-stage development with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS); however, today Moderna received notice that HHS will terminate the award for the late-stage development and right to purchase pre-pandemic influenza vaccines. "While the termination of funding from HHS adds uncertainty, we are pleased by the robust immune response and safety profile observed in this interim analysis of the Phase 1/2 study of our H5 avian flu vaccine and we will explore alternative paths forward for the program," said Stéphane Bancel, Chief Executive Officer of Moderna. "These clinical data in pandemic influenza underscore the critical role mRNA technology has played as a countermeasure to emerging health threats." The Phase 1/2 study evaluated a two-dose regimen of Moderna's investigational avian influenza vaccine. mRNA-1018 demonstrated a rapid, potent and durable immune response. At baseline, pre-existing immunity was minimal, with only 2.1% of participants showing hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) antibody titers ≥1:40, an HAI titer considered to correlate with protection. At Day 43, three weeks after the second vaccination, 97.8% of participants achieved titers ≥1:40 with a 44.5-fold increase of titers from baseline. The investigational vaccine was generally well-tolerated, with no dose-limiting tolerability concerns observed. Most solicited adverse reactions were Grade 1 or 2 and did not increase significantly with number of doses or between first and second doses. Further data is expected to be submitted for presentation at an upcoming scientific meeting. Moderna will explore alternatives for late-stage development and manufacturing of the H5 program consistent with the Company's strategic commitment to pandemic preparedness.
  15. NASA's acceptable risk thresholds will change - Musk got some of his people into top positions within NASA. DOGE was never about government efficiency, it was about shutting down investigations into his companies while at the same time trying to get his companies in to take over a lot of government stuff or take contracts from other companies.
  16. Meanwhile, how many of us guys on Surly were sweating it when we had penis reduction surgeries.
  17. Why not, it's apparently how RFK Jr is running things. RFK Jr.'s 'Make America Healthy Again' Report Cites Fake Studies
  18. Well, if you check the Star Wars Nerds threads in the movie forum, you'll find people using AI to create trailers for movies about Luke Skywalker and Yoda making out and having babies. And it's the culmination of these companies trying to push AI to the masses, in addition to ridiculous wastes of energy used to generate stupid shit.
  19. Damn, Dana Delany in that second episode. And William Shatner pushing his Tekwar books. It's a trip back to the 90s, that's for damn sure.
