  1. It was one person, and ROTJ got it wrong, he was an X-Wing fighter pilot named Manuel Bothans, who died at the Battle of Scarif.
  2. And it means something totally different in College Station.
  3. Go ahead and start the Real Thousandaire Wives of Cedar Park thread. I'm sure somebody here has seen it.
  4. Thank you for reminding me that we never got a scene of Dedra gagging Syril.
  5. It looks like they ramped it up a notch. Apple has clearly decided to take over the prestige TV title from HBO and to a lesser extent, AMC.
  6. Who fucking caught a brain worm probably from some raw bear meat in New York or bushmeat he ate in Africa.
  7. Musk is the kind of guy, that if he finds out that brown-eyed people see in color, or he realizes that the USS Enterprise in Star Trek: The Next Generation, had three shifts, and that Data was the night shift because he needs no sleep, that Rike ran the morning shift, and that Picard ran the afternoon shift, he'd immediately go out on twitter and start telling everybody like that was some kind of new information, even though most of us of his generation knew these things back in the 90s or even late 80s.
  8. Make sure to tell all of your boomer parents and relatives that the "Conclave" movie on Amazon Prime is an inside look at the selection process and is the closest they will get to seeing the real deal.
  9. I lived in ND. There’s more people in Austin proper than the whole state, but they have a lot of really isolated communities, so if it’s making its way into really isolated communities, it’s widespread.
  10. Wait, I thought his possessions were weighing him down and he was giving up everything to prepare for Mars?
  11. This shit is going to get bad, isn't it?
  12. They'll do it in single file.
  13. Travis has 57.2% still to go, so we'll see what it looks like in a day or two when more stuff upstream flows in Is The Lake Full Yet?
  14. Dumb motherfuckers usually don’t find out how dumb they are until they get a moment of clarity while bleeding out from some stupid fucking thing they did, or the bank is repossessing their mobile home, or their wife serves them with divorce papers because they were banging the kid’s babysitter, or when they are reeling from the aftershock of a police taser.
  15. Uggh, A Big Chill for Gen X makes me feel…
  16. SIAP https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-cybertruck-revamp-working-man-f-150-2025-4 How Tesla is quietly rebranding the Cybertruck When Tesla launched the Cybertruck in 2023, it was the product of four years of hype. The boxy electric pickup was the company's first new model since 2020. Kim Kardashian, Pharrell Williams, and Justin Bieber were spotted riding around in it. With a million people on the truck's reservation list and a $120,000 price tag, it quickly became a status symbol. Less than two years later, the waitlist has disappeared. Trucks are piling up in sales lots. Fewer than 50,000 vehicles have been delivered. Some owners have become political targets thanks to CEO Elon Musk's association with President Donald Trump. Enter a quiet rebrand. Over the past few months, Tesla has moved to position the Cybertruck as a working man's vehicle — less DeLorean, more Ford F-150. The company updated its website, ditching an other-worldly aesthetic for images that feature the truck hauling equipment and an Airstream trailer. And sales workers at the company told Business Insider it's become increasingly difficult to move the truck off sales lots. The vehicle, they said, needs to appeal to the traditional truck buyer. "Pitching it to truck people is more about the functionality," said one salesperson who works in the South. "They want to know how much it can tow, how much can fit in the truck bed." ——— Tesla has sold less than 50,000 Cybertrucks. Last year, Ford sold 765,000 F-series, and in 2023 they sold 750,000.
  17. It’s making a lot of rich donors even richer, so it’s “winning” for them.
