  1. I still can't believe that Americans elected a failed businessman for President of the United States. Really makes you reconsider American exceptionalism.
  2. I'm not sure Trump gets elected if not for Obergefell v. Hodges. Recall that the gay marriage issue gave W. a second term.
  3. And yet 16 of those 17 states voted for an authoritarian.
  4. Last night, 3-handed PLO, a drunk LAG is in the SB. He raises, I call in BB with A-A-Q-7, three diamonds and the A of hearts. I play with him a lot and am expecting three big bets, which he will make with any overpair. I have him covered. Flop is 6-7-7 two hearts. He bets the pot, I call. Turn is an 8. He bets 75% of pot, I call. River is a 7. He bets 75% of pot, I shove 3x. He calls with 9-9-J-3, one heart.
  5. Just think about it. There's a deadly pandemic going around, and the human species has quickly and efficiently made some of the most advanced and effective vaccines in history. The most powerful government in the history of the world has made them readily available to its citizens for no cost. And millions of people won't get vaccinated because of something they read on the Internet.
  6. How long until Republicans blame windmills?
  7. Yeah I don't know who the fuck he thinks he is. "You're adorable." What the fuck.
  8. If Covid tears through the unvaccinated right now, wouldn't we get to herd immunity sooner?
  9. Don't patronize me. Trump is the ultimate prize for a D.A.
  10. If they had evidence that Trump committed a crime I assume they’d charge him.
  11. I have an Apple AirPort Time Capsule https://www.apple.com/ph/airport-time-capsule/specs/ that is several years old now but I absolutely love. I had owned multiple high-end routers, including Asus, Netgear, and Linksys, all of which gave me problems, but since switching to Apple in 2014 or so everything has just worked. And it still works, but it's getting old now. Since I rely on it to back-up my Mac I'm wondering how long it will last, and alternatives to replace it. I don't think there's any current product that is both an external wireless hard drive and router. At least I can't find one. I've had bad experiences with high-end routers in the past, and the problem is that I don't understand half of what I'm reading online. In addition, I hate to say it but I care about looks, and the vast majority of routers are ugly as shit to me. Any recommendations?
  12. I've never heard this advice before and I kind of like it but be sure to accelerate your putter through the ball.
  13. Dude I think the yips are mental. I don't know if I have any good advice, but stop caring if it goes in or not, and focus on correctly reading the green, correctly lining it up, and just making a good stroke. Spend some time on your stance/posture fundamentals. How confident are you in your read? That might affect your confidence.
  14. His listeners love that shit.
  15. There was no reason to tase him or lock him up until they did.
  16. Yeah it's nice to not have a complete fucking moron as the President. Can't believe all the fuck faces who voted for that fat fucking piece of shit.
  17. Wonder if there's going to be any criminal liability coming from this.
  18. Why would you test them if they're vaccinated?
  19. Was watching the TCH Live stream last night and saw this interesting hand: Guy opens 6-6, Bart Hanson three-bets K-K, button calls and original raiser decides to set mine. Flop is 6 of spades, T of clubs, K of clubs. Check, Bart bets about 1/3 pot, button folds, and there's a check-raise to 3.5x. Pot is now $1,100, and effective stacks are $7,100. Bart just calls. What's the theory on just calling on such a wet board? Bart has the nuts, and it seems to me there are lots of worse hands that are calling a raise there. 6-6, T-T, K-T, flush draws, and straight draws. Worst-case scenario is the guy has Q-J of clubs, and you're 60/40 against that. A club came on the turn and it killed the action. Here's the video:
  20. Wait, I thought Trump saved the coal industry.
  21. I did that for a few years, mainly because I had a broken thermostat. Only one time, when I came home early from work, did I ever notice anything.
  22. I’m referring to schools closing due to the pandemic. It was all over the news.
  23. How many kids would have died of Covid if we hadn't closed schools?
