  1. At 55 and the parent of one kid, what I didn’t realize earlier that I do now is that the more kids you have the better chance you have of one of them showing back up when it’s time to change your diaper.

    So there is that. But no one thinks about that at a younger age when you are worried about living your best life.

  2. You can run analog pedals off a One-Spot daisy chain all day long.  But digital pedals are thirsty and picky.  

    True. But interestingly to me anyway the one spot delivers better milliamps than some cheap power supplies I’ve had in the past (Donner).

  3.  
    NYTimes website.  I have a sub, and they have a running narrative of the trial.  They have 3 reporters in the room (Jonah Bromwich, Maggie Haberman, Kate Christobek) and they each just add to the timeline.   Occasionally, one of them will expound upon the reporting of another.  I'm just copying/pasting; not always in chronological order.  They don't update it every minute; sometimes there might be 5-10 minutes between updates.
    There's others who are reporting from the courtroom (or an annex) and using Twitter for their messaging.  I'm not including them here.
     
     
     
     

    Outstanding. Thank you for your service.

  4. I mean, come on. Porn Stars probably have a pretty extensive understanding on birth control applications. 

    It's much more likely that an out of wedlock child came from some poor soul he raped. Like some illegal that worked on one of his estates. 

    Rape, not rape, who knows. Plenty of women throw the dirty leg at dudes like him. When you are famous, they just let you grab em by the pussy (which actually is true to a certain extent).

    Regardless, I’d be really surprised if he doesn’t have some extra kids somewhere.

  5. reading the wiki - did not know he used the muscle shoals rhythm section  for half the songs on those albums...


    Shit, me neither. That explains it. The swampers could bring it.
  6. With respect to the grind core comment above, FWIW, I work for a public company and we just increased maternity/paternity leave to up to 120 days. And we used to be the king of hard asses.

    Just my observation, but there def seems to be a push for more friendly work environments among groups I deal with.

  7. Yeah, this country voted George W Bush into office.  Twice.  FOX News had been up and running for several years by then, but it didn't have the sway it currently does.  Still, by the end of W's run, FOX was much more powerful.  I distinctly recall visiting my father in the hospital and my Aunt demanding we watch FOX at all times.  She was (and remains) a near-QAnon level MAGA.
    Trump definitely helped spread some of the bullshit, though.  

    This. Fox really took off when Obama got elected. He was the best thing ever to happen to Fox News.
