  1. Is that bad? That sounds bad.
  2. Can't wait for the NAFO memes that are gonna come from this.
  3. Why isn't that dog on a leash.
  4. Grain dust explosions are a real thing, and very dangerous. Could be that. Or Kurdish separatists. Or Russians. An explosion occurred approximately at 2:40pm (11:40 GMT) near Turkish Grain Board (TMO) silos, Seddar Yavuz, the governor of Kocaeli where the port is located, said on Monday. “Initial evaluations show that an explosion occurred due to wheat dust compression during the transfer of wheat from a ship to the silo,” he added. “We were told that it is technically possible that a blast could occur due to compression of wheat dust, but we are investigating every possible reason,” Yavuz said. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/8/7/explosion-rocks-grain-silos-at-turkeys-derince-port
  5. I'm 19 min in and this musical is ballah. The creativity that went into this episode is orgasmic. It makes me want to...sing.
  6. Mr. Bass talks about the prep work that China is doing like food stocking (18 months of wheat for example) and building coal-fired power plants. That won't be enough. Add in the fact their military is unproven, they gotta invade across the ocean and yeah, they'd lose. But there are counterpoints. Fighting and losing a war might be seen as a "uniting" event for Xi. Losing a war, badly, would get rid of a buncha excess Chinese males. We need to be careful not to just look at this from the perspective of western democrats. For a non-European dictatorship winning/losing can look very different. I'm not saying this guy is right or wrong, but we need to listen to the contrarians. I worry we are not.
  7. Nice in the eastern Dakotas and into Minnesota over the last 24 hours, and it isn't done. Rain makes corn; corn makes whiskey.
  8. Speaking of which, "A Few Good Men" had a plethora of character actors. Mr. Walsh Kevin Bacon (if he isn't to "big" to be a character actor) Kevin Pollak
  9. So whose side are we on with this Niger thing? Any chance we don't care?
  10. Because Elon. What kinda ripple effects will this hit have? Is the Russian navy having to pull back further?
  11. So #itshappening maybe? Folks say it would take a very long time to replace copper with SC's. But the better the payoff, the higher the motivation. Humanity might be OK after all.
  12. I send you my tree fiddy. Post your banking information thx.
  13. Episide 4 gives us what we expect out of Raylan Givins. A sit-down with the Albanian boss, telling them other Albanians to eff off from chasing that lawyer. Just need Raylan to shoot a couple of these guys. Eastern european white trash always make great bad guys. ETA Other than the weird romance with the lawyer. Nothing against her but she isn't Raylan's type. She's not crazy. Or hot.
