  1. The fact that you think eliminating the top 1% from benefits would accomplish anything tells me everything I need to know. Learn your math, and while you're at it, stop demanding social justice while advocating financial shackles.
  2. The law does not carve out income or wealth. Know your English.
  3. Today without the knowledge of Trump's policies of the first 5 months in office? Trump. Today with the knowledge of Trump's policies of the first 5 months in office? Trump. Because our voting public is 50% stupid.
  4. Strawman. Your AI query literally says "Provide financial support to retired workers age 65 or older through a national retirement system". It doesn't exclude those who don't "need" it. This shit makes me furious. Call it a tax and I'll pay it -- call it a benefit then I'd better fucking benefit when the time comes.
  5. Wait, Elon Musk is bitching about handouts?
  6. I am unaware of any requirement to divulge one's vote to their friends and family. One could even . . . lie.
  7. I got my daughter a 3-pack of Yellowbird sauces for XMas. I'll try that one.
  8. Anybody do wings with different hot sauces? Sauce + butter + chicken. I like Valentina's but it's not very spicy (and I'm no chile-head). Yeah, I've done all the Frank's and basic Tobasco variants. Any go-tos I should try next? Ghost peppers need not apply. MAYBE habaneros at the most. Now that I think about it, a good habanero-citrus sauce might be delicious.
  9. What's that in dog years? Asking for Graham Harmon.
  10. You don't get to make that argument and lump the Bill of Rights in with the original Constitution. It's either the original document with no amendments or it's everything. The year an amendment is enacted should not matter --it's an amendment. Not that the MAGAts get the subtlety, but for fuck's sake let's at least TRY to be intellectually consistent.
  11. Work holiday to vote. Good one.
  12. That's catchy as hell. I've never heard it. I see they're singing in a Chinese dialect, I'll see what else I can find. Pretty cool.
  13. I'm thinking about this for my next guitar, the Taylor Taylor:
  14. Not gonna touch it . . . not gonna touch it . . .
  15. Here's an idea: get a standing desk, lardass.
  16. That's not a universal truth, at all. You do realize that voice training is a thing, right? My sis is a classical voice coach, she has worked with the biggest stars in the opera world. She makes her hay by teaching young singers how to improve their pitch, timbre, enunciation, etc. By "young" I mean "just graduated from Juilliard, etc." up throughout much of their pro career. Hell, Madonna became a much better singer once she got formal voice training in her mid-30s to perform "Evita". I have no idea what Taylor Swift has done in that regard. Sure, but that doesn't mean everyone can do it w/o training.
  17. Yeah, she probably shouldn't have watered down the lyrics.
  18. Old data. Trump has the new data. Just wait and see.
  19. "Talent" isn't one thing. The lack of auto-tuning is refreshing, and nobody accused Taylor of being a great singer in the first place. Stevie hits some green notes too. That next song kicks ass, missed notes nothwithstanding. It's a fucking HOOK. Why don't you write that hook? That takes talent. Also: 15 years ago. 21 years old. I couldn't hit a note from a boat in the ocean when I was 21. (Still can't.)
  20. Man, those IT "updates" are hard to read.
  21. Did somebody say that, at least on this thread?
  22. Adopted by who?
  23. "Core" PCE came in a 2.7% annual (2.6% expected). April revised up from 2.5% to 2.6%.

    Tacos

    Was the pastor as good as it looks like it was?
  25. Why would a team pick up a guy who is currently one of the worst kickers in the league?
