  1. Page 14, there's a guy saying if you take this money and aren't in compliance the federal government will take their homes and make them get Covid vaccines. We really need to address mental health issues in this country.
  2. It's not usually a good plan to drop the ball.
  3. We don’t want to hurt the feelings of Those who made mistakes.
  4. If prayers work then people must not be very good at praying.
  5. Heads are still not rolling.
  6. We need a bunch of Abbott “I did that” stickers.
  7. Yeah it's about how they make decisions, not intelligence per se.
  8. The partial transcript, which I assume is genuine, shows county commissioners acting on emotions and feelings instead of analyzing costs and benefits. It's sad when people like that are elected to positions with power.
  9. Why was there a camp under a tree on campus?
  10. It's Monday morning and heads should start rolling but we all know they won't.
  11. $1/$2 PLO game on Pokerrrr2 app. 8-handed. Played about an hour, relatively passive game so far, and nobody is raising pre flop. Hero and Villain have about $250 effective. Villain open limps from UTG. Three others call, Hero checks BB with AQxx. Flop is QQA. Villain bets just under half pot. Folds to Hero, who smooth calls out of position. Turn is a 2. Backdoor flush draw is there. Check, Villain bets pot, Hero calls. River is a J. Flush misses. Check, Villain bets half pot. Call or raise? Hero was scared of AA and calls. Too nitty? Villain shows KQ. Did Villain overplay his hand? Should Hero have check raised the flop, turn, or river?
  12. This is such utter bullshit.
  13. Nobody in the Texas Legislature gives a fuck about anyone from Uvalde.
  14. I've been putting a lot of thought into this. If only we had a system of forecasting what the weather might be, maybe based on some type of modeling, and a communication channel to inform people of dangerous conditions, and perhaps a way to let them know what actions might need to be taken, then a lot of lives might be saved. I don't know what the costs for such a system may be, but think of the expected benefits. Now, I agree that in an ideal world we wouldn't need a system like this, and maybe a for-profit company could do a good job, but perhaps the public interest would be better served if the government was involved, at least partly. Thoughts?
  15. See, a basic tenet of Christianity is we all deserve to die because of Adam and Eve.
