  1. You may be overreacting just a bit.

    She brings up being a woman twice.

    At the very beginning she says "that [winning the award] was very unexpected, especially in a category of all men," and at the very end she says she believes in the power of "she." 2 seconds of her speech. The rest was thanking her teammates and those that believed in her and helped her while she struggled. Pretty innocuous as far as I can tell.

  2. This looks like it has high potential. I'm down.

    The Long March was also compiled into a collection of four novels written under King's pseudonym: The Long Walk, Roadwork, The Running Man, and Rage. I remember reading "The Bachman Books" as a teen and loving all of them. I wish I'd saved my copy because King stopped printing Rage after it inspired a bunch of high school shootings. Also The Running Man as a novel is so much better than the movie (which was great in its own right).

  3. Great season and I'm glad Tristan won. That dude was just on point almost every week.

     

    Blaise is all So Cal now. Don't think he has a single restaurant in Atlanta anymore. 

     

    Philly would be fun too. I'd love a Top Chef: Mexico season now that the international wall has come down.

  4. He's a billionaire for Christ's sake. Just gotta find a quack that will sign off on a physical saying he's 6' 8" and 210 lbs.

    CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — With the clock winding down on his term, U.S. President Donald Trump shielded tens of thousands of Venezuelan migrants from deportation Tuesday night, rewarding Venezuelan exiles who have been among his most loyal supporters and who fear losing the same privileged access to the White House during the Biden administration.

    Trump signed an executive order deferring for 18 months the removal of more than 145,000 Venezuelans who were at risk of being sent back to their crisis-wracked homeland. He cited the “deteriorative condition” within Venezuela that constitutes a national security threat as the basis for his decision.

    “America remains a beacon of hope and freedom for many, and now eligible Venezuelan nationals in the U.S. will receive much-needed temporary immigration relief,” Sen. Marco Rubio, a Republican of Florida, said in a statement praising the decision.

    He was for it before he was against it

    This could probably go in the dementia thread too. 

     

    I'm guessing its a Leopards Eating Faces thing but how are all the servers voting Trumptard because of no taxes on tips feeling today?

    So a photo with Epstein is more damning than lying under oath about sexually assaulting your intern in the Oval Office, then admitting it, getting impeached for it but having Tim Kaine and the democrats not punish for it? Oh, and also riding on Epstein plane 32 times.  Sure.

    Tim Kaine was elected to the Senate in 2012. He was mayor of Richmond when y'all impeached Clinton. What was he supposed to do about it?

    Talking election with my 35ish year old Ethiopian immigrant limo driver. His sisters who all live in Atlanta are voting TrUmp, and he’s convinced his lifelong Democrat mom to switch over by getting her to listen to right wing podcasts. Interesting and sad to hear such a weird and unorthodox perspective.  

    they're lying to him. They watched that Julia Roberts ad

    One of my friends brought this up and I said the same thing about the 200 million and his response was it will suck when the farmer dies and his family gets hit with that tax bill. I laughed and said you obviously haven’t been a farmer if you think they are sitting on that unrealized gain. 

    Homes are exempt, and you also are exempt if (IIRC) 80%+ of your stock is in one company (ie you started your own business and took it public). So dumb that anyone worth less than a billion cares at all about this.
