  1. Well, my brain is an old donut floating in a toilet bowl, but I don't lie repeatedly and endlessly. This is giving a bad name to old brains floating in toilet bowls.
  2. The fact that he compares men trends against women trends betrays the suggestion that men ought not to fair more poorly than women. He could have simply noted the decline, sorted out causes, etc, but he felt he needed to slip in an anti woman ingredient.
  3. Restaurants use and replace at high frequency. Been using the Calphalons for the last dozen years or so, they are great. Anyone here encounter a 14" non stick?
  4. Personnel development. Give them challenging jobs. Sort out the future leaders, etc.
  5. I spent half of my work life as an expat, in Kuwait, Sumatra, Kazahkstan, Cabinda, Luanda. All reasonable facimiles of shitholes, but all enjoyable in their way. The fact that my life was heavily subsidized by my employer, and that work provided a huge mental diversion, were probably the biggest reasons for that time being enjoyable. My wife's view differs from mine. Raydog raises some good points - about the typical American expat, and the unexpected vibe of living in a foreign place. Seems to me it is a thing to do if one wants to live that adventure, not at all a thing to do as some sort of political statement.
  6. Or he will invite Senate and House Rs to a venue where they will provide unending standing ovations for every utterance. As the maximum ego dick move, this will be the most likely outcome.
  7. Yes, a badass move. Yet I'm uncertain that I like this additional step into permanent dysfunction.
  8. Which shows that the 45% in support of giving him the $ were/are horrific parents. Or simply racist nazi piece of shit parents.
  9. Ray, I so hope you are right. What are the thresholds for new state admittance? Can you offer some analytical meat to your demographic conclusion? My impression, for example, is that the Idaho's, Montana's, Dakota's of the world are not changing. I will believe Texas when I see it. Florida is too wierd. These are impressions. Thanks in advance.
  10. I use that small tool between cooks, then about every few months take all the components out and remove all the ash with spoons, scoops, whatever. Takes about 10-15 minutes.
  11. This is the pub kryptonite. This 35% in the small and red states will keep an approximate 50 pub senators in their seats for the rest of our lifetimes. Pub senators have no rational fear of getting voted out, except for being primaried by an even more horrific nazi racist piece of shit. And that more or less permanent situation is why we won't "get through this".
  12. Yeah, besides the horror of the whole shitshow, there is just this endless creepy weirdness.
  13. Again, the suggestion that illegal immigration, as a phenomena, is unchecked, is a gargantuan lie. Again, FO with that. Oh, you mean the word "illegal immigration" is equivalent to "unchecked" immigration? Look at the big brain on Onboard. That we could all be as insightful, and helpful to our fellow citizens. JFC what in the hell is wrong with you?
  14. The suggetion that immigration is currently unchecked is an unmitigated lie. Fuck off with that shit.
  15. We would need 4+-6 score lead, based on the season's data set. Being up 17-21 with 11 minutes to play was a signal for anxiety.
  16. By god there will be a shit ton of furrowed brows, I tell you what!
  17. And that's what we have the high court for, to stop such nonsense. My anxiety is salved.
  18. Case in point, when I entered UT in 1972, the state subsidized my tuition and fee's by 90%. That first semester bill was $50 for tuition and $114 total. The difference between 90% susidy and 100 % is small. What sort of ball crushing socialism was that? We did it before, for decades, and we can do it in the future. By the way, it isn't free tuition for all, it is heavily subsidized public college, available for all who want that path and can qualify. That is very far from all..
  19. There is an endpoint. China is the long game player, and will have the world's dominant economy. At a certain stage of their economy maturing wrt internal consumption (not so far off), they will target winning as having the RC privelege. If they see that goal, they will achieve that goal. They have the only path to it. The US has no path to stop it. That means long term serious erosion of USD. But does it mean RMB is the safe haven?
  20. Gotta admit, the Nancy and Chuck moment post "liar side chat" was cringe and ridicule worthy.
  21. The right hates and fears every fucking person not in their "resistance". The is no one that can mitigate their reactive hate.
