  1. Thousandaires pay a shitload for a ticket, think they are entitled to whatever ends up triggering them.
  2. Back Door Sluts v9 is always the correct answer. But Disney's Robin Hood is a pretty good movie.
  3. They were concussed many times. Which is why they act the way they do now.
  4. I wish I was being funny, but the House committee said they are going to continue looking into the Epstein stuff, so there's going to have to be some distractions.
  5. That was a magical experience. Even when they showed more obscure sports or when nothing would match the intensity of the intro, it was still great. Made by people who really cared about sports. Loved American Sportsman as well.
  6. Tonight, on North Lamar near the Shoal Creek crossover (before MLK), while stuck in heavy traffic, we saw the following within a 5-minute timespan: 11 Waymo's going both directions. It was noticeable enough that we counted. 0 Robotaxis.
  7. "You've seen most of the files. Who if anyone did Epstein traffic these young women to, besides himself?" Kennedy asked Patel. Patel responded, "Himself. There is no credible information, none. If there were I would bring the case yesterday that he trafficked to other individuals. And the information we have, again, is limited." Kennedy followed up, "So the answer is no one?" The FBI director responded, "For the information that we have. In the case files." FBI Director Kash Patel, on Tuesday: "I know there's a lot of talk about Epstein, and I'm here to testify that the original sin in the Epstein case was the way it was initially brought by Mr. Acosta back in 2006. The original case involved a very limited search warrant, or set of search warrants, and didn't take as much investigatory material as it should have seized. If I were FBI director back then, it wouldn't have happened." President Donald Trump, on Truth Social on September 5: "The now dying (after the DOJ gave thousands of pages of documents in full compliance with a very comprehensive and exacting Subpoena from Congress!) Epstein case was only brought back to life by the Radical Left Democrats because they are doing so poorly, with the lowest poll numbers in the history of the Party (16 percent), while the Republicans are doing so well, among the highest approval numbers the Party has ever had!"
  8. Also of note, there's going to be a lot of really pissed off victims who are going to be doing a lot more interviews, not to mention more documents and emails coming out. The Trump administration does not understand the Barbara Streisand effect. Poor Venezuela, we hardly knew ya.
  9. They did it with our weapons and aircraft. You understand that this kind of shit is how we lose influence and lose major military bases that we need over there.
  10. Gonna have to send that to some folks I know and ask them why Epstein was arrested and died under Trump's DOJ if he wasn't trafficking anybody.
  11. Most of America when it comes to drugs
  12. 3 hours but Edit: It's 3+ hours so you have to really like Pink Floyd and/or the middle albums.
  13. As somebody studying computer science and working in IT when that movie came out, I loved the shit out of that movie and still do today. Loved the cast. Loved that it started out as a sequel to War Games. Putting aside Redford and the rest of the cast, it's a well-made/tightly-edited movie.
  14. A lot more than Tesla and Musk could ever dream of.
  15. Occasionally the universe rights itself.
  16. I'd say all four are solid choices.
  17. And you know, given that we have the world's most powerful navy and intelligence monitoring services, it seems like a better use of our assets would be...oh I don't know, see where these dudes stop, who they meet up with, where the final stop is (if it's even in the US), try to trace things back to the source nation(s) and basically using that to build up a holistic picture of drug smuggling. Something that we've done many times in the past, and in the Middle East/North Africa with terrorists. Because this did nothing to actually address drug smuggling - this *maybe* took a tiny amount of drugs off the streets, but it didn't, oh I don't know, deal with the originating organizations that grew it and shipped it, and it didn't deal with the network of distribution within the US mainland and/or the points between the Caribbean and the US or the Pacific and the US. And it didn't deal with the end users who are funding this. But it made somebody feel powerful, so I guess that's what matters.
  18. Epstein files ain't going to keep on knocking themselves out of the news cycle, are they?
  19. Exactly. If Ukraine can make enough of a dent on their oil/gas/electricity infrastructure, to where Ukraine is always ahead of Russia's repair capabilities, they can put the squeeze on the Russian civilian population, but also arguably the military side. It's an oligarchy, not Ye Olde Soviet Russia so they will fuck up allocating resources. I would imagine that with the lack of Western companies and parts, there will be, to use a military term, a culminating point where Russia's inability to repair their oil & gas infrastructure will cripple the nation as a whole. And the beauty of it is that because Russia ain't cranking out new air defense systems at a rapid pace, they will have to decide where they want to skimp on air defenses - keep oil and gas going and risk reducing air defenses around military infrastructure? Or leave oil and gas wide open?
  20. I'm guessing they don't have anywhere else to send it so it's just billions of dollars of gas sitting there, waiting to be blown up.
  21. So Tiktok is owned by a staunch Trump ally.
  22. We should setup a Surly Discord voice chat for when GTA6 launches. Bunch of middle-aged people reminiscing about the earlier GTAs.
