  1. I have the BeatBot Aquasense 2 Ultra. I work from home, so I drop it in every couple of days to do a full clean of the pool. It’s expensive. That said - I haven’t had to sweep my walls at all since I’ve gotten it. Disclaimer - I do not have any trees around us, so our pool stays pretty clean.
  2. I’ve officially hit middle aged. I’m 47 and my lower back locked up on me Monday after mowing the yard. Today I am mostly standing up straight. Good god - this fucking sucks. I’m hoping I’m back to normal tomorrow. I have not worked out this week or cycled and it’s irritating. That said - theraguns are awesome and definitely help.
  3. I’m looking forward to the new Mazda rotary engine and sports car. That should be fun
  4. I think my wife will retire in the next two years. She will be 47. I will keep working until the kid is mostly done with college. He’s 14 and a high school freshman, so that gives us a few more years. I think I will be done in 7 years and that should allow our investments to almost double. From there - I will find a fuck you job in something that interests me or provides discounts.
  5. Damn. Mechanical taking out Norris is rough.
  6. Kimi getting Charles back for Russel. Double DNF for Ferrari.
  7. This is on the whole team. When Arch threw within the hands of receivers, they dropped the ball. Play calling was trash. Defense made costly penalties that could have changed the game. Receivers ran shit routes and dropped balls. Also - a few of Arch’s early passes were off because he was hit or run into. Sark has work to do. The game was sloppy.
  8. Sark has called a shit game. That was stupid.
  9. I got tired of driving a truck. Went and traded my Tundra for a 2023 Porsche Macan GTS. Needed the SUV for soccer stuff and my bike. This thing is fun to zip around in.
  10. Too many Republicans are just scared of Trump. Once he goes away, it’ll be back to power grabbing and fighting for the party. I’m not saying the stops, but whoever is next in charge is not going to have the same levels of protection and boot, licking that Trump has.
  11. The elementary school my niece attends (near me) has an outbreak.
  12. Physical inactivity covers 95% of Surly…
  13. Gun apologists should be along to explain why. I guess they are busy with their prayers.
  14. Nope. My BIL works in construction out at different plants around the country. Most of the people he interacts with have no clue what’s going on beyond a headline here and there. They get up, go to work, bullshit about conspiracies and whatever else catches their attention and go home. The avg American doesn’t have time or care enough or have the intelligence to actually understand jack shit on a national / global scale. There were guys that hated Biden working on the TSMC project FUNDED BY the CHIPS act. [emoji2373]
  15. If your in the Towne Lake / Bridgeland areas, you’re terribly outnumbered. MAGAs all over that area. He’s one of many. It’s not as bad as my neighborhood where Gov wheels did his door knocking bullshit, but it’s close.
  16. This. I have a co-worker that voted for lower prices. We don’t have lower prices. Shoulder shrug and “he’s better than Harris” is his response. He’s upper middle white guy in Cypress in a $1M home. None of this affects him at all, so why would he give a shit outside of being a decent human? The market stays rolling - all is good in his backyard.
  17. Abbott spin: it coulda been worse. [emoji2373]
  18. No, they didn’t. They did not have the Senate thanks to Joe Manchin.
  19. Do we know the caliber of the bullets yet? That seems important to the gun dipshits.
  20. I’m sure Crain and Company would love to slobber over QE. The Daily Wire sports dipshits would add him in a heart beat.
  21. This is my father. Big Reagan guy and over the past two years I convinced him that Republican Party was gone and he was screwed based on their new platform (he’s 92, social security, etc).
  22. What’s something like that cost? Three-fiddy?
  23. Good enough for me in the stonks thread.
  24. Their god told them to do what their husbands tell them to.
