  1. I’m not sure which asshole I’m rooting for.
  2. Mike Johnson: “We were going to do that anyway.”
  3. It helped the Indians win the pennant.
  4. Fucking A, that looks awesome.
  5. Catching up since I was not on night shift. What's the play for the Dems? Cave on the shutdown, but once Congress re-opens move to extend ACA subsidies, scream "We told you so!!!" when the Republicans do nothing, and hope the pain of increased health care for so many in the red states carries over to the 2026 midterms?
  6. Sleep is a huge issue for longevity, both quality and quantity. I've always been a light sleeper, and often have stress from work or other parts of my life creep into my brain in the middle of the night and keep me up for stretches. Maintaining an exercise routine and not drinking during the week have helped a lot with sleep over the past 10+ years, but I also take melatonin most nights, at a lower 3mg dose. Anybody else take this? Now there are reports of a study linking long-term melatonin use with increased risk in heart failure. https://www.sciencealert.com/common-supplement-shows-concerning-link-to-heart-failure The article notes some limitations in the study, which has yet to be peer reviewed, but the correlation is pretty significant, and it's getting a lot of press.
  7. Question for the history buffs: When’s the last time a U.S. President asked for a sports venue to be named after him? Was it Obama, or are we going all the way back to Lincoln?
  8. But he never stopped worshipping Jobu.
  9. How about Comey wins the case, but we find out his name is also in the Epstein files? Is that something that might interest you?
  10. I don’t know you, but I feel like you’ll get into heaven. So no, you won’t be joining him in the hereafter.
  11. Not really similar, because the victim and murderer lived in the same neighborhood and had been antagonistic toward each other, and at the time of the murder I recall the victim went to the murderer’s house to confront her about behaviors toward the victim’s kids. This was the murder of a complete minority stranger who just knocked on a door. But still, two murders by two racists emboldened by laws enacted to cloak their racism.
  12. In fairness, at that age some of us will think he still plays for the Longhorns.
  13. Regulators is a sort of bizarro Desperation. I loved it, but can’t imagine liking it as much if I hadn’t read Desperation first.
  14. I’d have no problem rooting for Tech in that situation.
  15. Sleepy Don.
  16. With a huge penis.
  17. So Johnson's in the Epstein files. It all makes sense now.
  18. He wasn't going to wait around for another Kennedy to be taken down.
  19. What a world that Cal decides to fire its coach in the middle of the season with a 5-4 record. I mean, c'mon, it's Cal.
