  1. well...not irl, but you know several on surly right? *waves* im not even counting @troph, @Beau Vine, and others here...
  2. yeah. pretty lame. he's like #97...
  3. the cult of Trump and the cult of Elon have merged
  4. i was thinking yesterday... since the 90s, i've seen people threaten to leave - either the state or country - bc of politics and elections. on both sides. this is the first time i've actually seen and know people that have done it or are doing it in the near future...including us. half a dozen of our closest friends/families from Austin have relocated out of state...VA, NJ, WI... two couples have become actual expats (MX and SE Asia). it has gotten so bad that people are actually picking up their lives and moving. my niece and her bf will hopefully be in WI themselves by 4/1 🤞 her entire career path/plan (NPS/BLM/NFS etc) has been blown apart right as she graduated (in Dec) but she's resilient and has accepted a position in her field in Madison. it really is different now.
  5. unfortunately... that's not just a problem for democrats.
  6. yeah...it's all a horrible nightmare but i said the same earlier today, my personal red line...my god...
  7. total lunacy
  8. now this...this pisses me off. imo the NPS is the best thing our federal govt has ever done. so of course they are going to try to destroy it. motherfuckers.
  9. helicopters, planes, now ships! tsk tsk Trump, Hegspeth and Real World bro are just terrible at this. totally their fault, they are in charge. /worksfortheotherside
  10. Huxley? so can i get some soma up in this bitch? cuz Plan A is looking better as each week passes...
  11. i don't know what my favorite bit was today...Rep Garcia saying he brought his own 'dick pic' and holding up a picture of Elon...or Elon's kid telling Trump he wasn't the president and he 'should go' 🤣
  12. @troph you'll enjoy this story (if you remember, we shared a doctor in Austin before he retired)... when we went to PV we had upgraded our seats so were in like row 4...and doc and his husband board the plane. we were surprised and amused, say hi, turns out their seats are the row right in front of us...and he deadpans 'oh, there must be some mistake, we appear to be seated in steeeeerage.' 🤣 i mean, we thought it was pretty funny 😆
  13. @PenelopeWitherspoon approves 😄
  14. i mean i'm pretty sure 'burn it all down' w/ regard to our current system is exactly what we're seeing. our house needed some serious remodeling and updating, but fuck it, burning it all down seems a lot more reasonable. oh what's that? the predators are swooping in to cash in on the remains? oh no who could have seen this coming. congratulations lol
  15. this whole thing was good as usual... but John Oliver's appearance at 5:30 is great new season of Last Week starts this Sunday. lucky him, he has dual citizenship.
  16. hahaha it happened 😄 i just saw the video. the guy next to him was cracking up.
  17. why do i feel like these guys are posting on this thread
  18. joking aside...we had friends who live in Ajijic (another huge expat enclave) who drove and met us in PV, we enjoyed plenty of weed on the beach/balcony. lots of folks doing the same. i assume it's other drugs that the cartel is sensitive about... with all the discos and nightclubs in the romantic zone i assume there's plenty of coke, molly, and the like flowing 🤔
  19. i mean... can you ask the cartel for drugs? heh. but really... 🤔 goes without saying but definitely do not get the oysters on the beach. we loved la zona romantica when we visited. our hotel was fantastic and PV was pretty awesome in general. we'd def go back. we went in January and it was quite warm, i can imagine what it's like in the summer.
