  1. Damn. Who knew GRR Martin is actually Ted fucking Cruz? No wonder he writes at a snail's pace. He's not lazy, he is just too busy being an asshole in the U.S. Senate and licking Trump's taint.
  2. I have always said that OU and/or Texas would have to leave the B12 first, for KU to separate from KSU. We share a BoR and though we could just go, it would make things very thorny, for a very long time. As long as KU stays quiet, it is a good sign they have something cooking with another conference. I hope it is KU to the B1G with ISU (so another school finds a home), but it could be CU or even multiple schools from the PAC. I know at one point that the B1G had talked about possibly going past 20 if they got the right schools. If KU starts joining in the bellyaching, then it is a sign we are fucked, at least in the short term. I hope everyone finds a good home if UT and OU leave in the end, but likely some, or all of us, might be fucked. I will be disappointed if KU throws up roadblocks, even if KU ends up fucked. This was always coming sooner or later without quality expansion, and if KU gets left out it is our own fault for letting football be neglected for decades and not being proactive enough working the back channels with other conferences, especially considering what happened in realignment a decade ago. Worst case, KU kills FB and pours even more dollars into basketball. Texas and OU not joining the B12 call means this is more or less a done deal. I have nothing against Texas and OU for wanting to leave, if they do. I think KU and Texas have a good relationship going back to helping with 3rd tier stuff when Texas was getting the LHN up and running that continued with KU/UT games on the LHN. I know back when we used to only play once a year in BB, in the 12 school era, KU/UT were talking of playing 1 more game OOC so each got a game at home each year. We have a 100 plus year relationship with OU that seems pretty good. The NIL stuff means that schools need to maximize their revenue to stay at the top. This was always the timeline (2021-2023) for the B12 to die if they did not expand from or partner with another P5 league. It is entirely likely some PAC teams will be heading to the B1G. The PAC is not in good financial shape. I think in the end we see 2 super conferences more or less. A merging/pairing of the SEC/ACC (ESPN) and a B1G/PAC (multiple networks). Two large conferences rather than 5 gives a lot more negotiating leverage in the future. Get rid of the NCAA and that billion a year in BB revenue is waiting to be scooped up too.
  3. DEA agent busted. Tries to hang his friend, who filmed it all, out to dry to cover his own ass. Friend says fuck that.
  4. I thought Brownback and Kansas were moronic a few years back, but Abbott and Texas have taken that baton and wheeled away with it.
  5. These retards have forgotten, that prior to vaccines and modern medicine, it was pretty common for more soldiers to die from disease than actually fighting during conflicts. For example, in the Civil War almost 2/3 of deaths were from disease.
  6. The whole Trump rally phenomenon has a lot to do with people having shitty, boring lives, needing to feel special, and getting some stimulation so they feel alive, even if 90% of it is fueled by lies and grievances. Especially among retirees, which make up a large percentage of those attending his shitty rallies. Anyone, with anything remotely entertaining in their life, is not going to attend a rally to watch a narcissist talk about himself for couple hours.
  7. Watch this video. It is incredible.
  8. Well, you don't want to cum on your baby.
  9. Tom Hanks is due to the COVID he caught at the start of the pandemic in March 2020 and he spoke out about need to take measures to stop it's spread. He also said he didn't have much respect for people who did not take precautions like wearing a mask in public and washing their hands. After that he started popping up as a pedo in the Q loons fantasies. Probably also being left leaning, like the majority of Hollywood stars, made it even easier.
  10. Respect. Milley has brass balls and his being willing to confront people about stupidity is probably the only reason Trump did not fuck up more shit this summer. Trump hates confrontation, so he and his staff probably did not suggest more stupidity since Milley would call it out to their faces.
  11. Your family is smart. That beer does taste like piss. It is only worth drinking if it is dirt cheap. There are so many better beers from Mexico.
  12. I always laugh when I see this picture. Most Republicans that feel this way probably do not realize how bad things are for the average Russian. Here in Asia, Russians are imported in to fill jobs (construction, manufacturing, sex work, etc.) and work along side people from developing countries because they can pay them the very low wages they pay people from the Philippines, China, India, Africa, Bangladesh, etc. Here in Korea, Russians are the 3rd largest group I see in the foreign sections of Busan and Seoul after Chinese and Filipinos. Russians are emigrating all over the world, in pretty large numbers, because so many Russians are struggling to get by.
  13. In the land of 1 brain cell, the man with 2 brain cells is king.
  14. Books I have read recently that I would recommend that I have not seen mentioned here: Battle Mage by Peter Flannery. Epic Fantasy. Mankind fighting a losing battle versus demons. Stand alone. The Witcher Books by Andrzej Sapkowski. The Witcher video games and TV show were adapted from these collections of short stories and a couple novels by a Polish author. Easy reading in short bursts. Fatemarked series (completed - 5 books) by David Estes. Fantasy. Completed. Certain people are born with skin markings that mark their special powers. Will these powers be enough to fight back an invasion of inhuman monsters or will their prejudices and hatreds of each other stand in the way. The Kharkanas Trilogy (2 of 3 completed) by Steven Erikson. If you liked the Malazan Book of the Fallen series, you will want to read this prequel dealing with the Tiste, Mother Dark, Draconus, Anomander, Andarist, and Silchas Ruin. The Bees (novel) by Laline Paull. If you liked Watership Down by Richard Adams, then you will probably like this book. The Speed of Dark by Elizabeth Moon. Scifi. Autistic individual is given a chance to be "cured", but would he still be himself? How would he be changed?
  15. Try Armor by John Steakley.
  16. That homie is scrared AF. Cops man. He has seen what happens to dogs when the cops come.
  17. The GQP and the Trumpanzee brigade doesn't really care about the military or police. They are just props and a way to "virtue signal" fellow GQP/Trumpanzees about how "patriotic" they are. The minute the military or police inconvenience them they will ignore them or become hostile to them, as we have seen repeatedly during the last year or so.
  18. The rub of this whole thing had me thinking it would have an explosive, messy finish for Watson. Put this tweet is tugging me into thinking he'll have a happy ending.
  19. But gorilla's have the smallest penis (1.25 inches) and testes among all male apes, so the genital size is a match.
  20. Except your kid in kindergarten or teenager on a date at the movie theater will not be packing when some mentally ill person walks in and starts blasting away. Being a victim has nothing to do with whether you have been firearm trained or not. It mostly has to do with being in the wrong place at the wrong time and unprepared for what is coming, armed or not. The NRA is such a joke. The next time I go back to the USA, I am going to dig into storage and I am throwing my NRA marksmanship medals I got as a kid in the trash. Fuck being associated with this clown show in any way, even if it was decades ago.
  21. This is fucking stupid considering how many people are adopted or consider people who did not give birth them their mothers, as the woman who gave birth to them, could not or would not, care for them.
