  1. Yeah I'm seeing people saying he tried in the first term but 'Pelosi torpedoed it'. Smells like bullshit.
  2. Apparently he also said something about working with the Dems to try and work out a legality plan for Dreamers. I don't remember him saying anything like that during the campaign, or am I misremembering? Of course, he still wants to end birthright citizenship. Trump details sweeping changes he’ll carry out on day one and beyond in an exclusive interview Trump vowed to launch a mass deportation effort, impose tariffs and pardon many convicted in the Jan. 6 attack in an interview with “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-details-sweeping-changes-ll-carry-day-one-exclusive-interview-rcna182858
  3. Ouch. What a daggar. That shit reminded me of Dicker the Kicker vs ou. Zero fucks to give.
  4. Except with a 12 team playoff, that FSU team woulda been in.
  5. Wut, lol? We lost because of any combination of missed FGs, not even looking to block on what shoulda been a pick 6, not recovering a fumble, not protecting the QB, not running the ball, dropped pass, bad offensive play calling, stupid penalties (one of which negated a FG btw), not reacting to a fake punt right after their punter gets hurt, etc, etc. You can't put it all on the FG team with all that other shit happening.
  6. Speed817 posted it a few pages back so I took it down, but here you go:
  7. Oh well. Missed it. Some pics are loading slowly, prolly because of the traffic.
  8. You can say that again, and yeah, I don't think it woulda been a block in the back either. Ugh. Sickening.
  9. Yeah this year we saw Christmas lights earlier than ever in our 'hood in SW Austin - 2 weeks before Thanksgiving. Such bullshit. Chill, y'all. You don't need to turn on your Christmas lights as soon as they're available in the stores. Day after Thanksgiving? Go for it. Before that? Fuck off.
  10. So, Bevo's not allowed in the building. Is Uga?
  11. That actually might have been #10's best game ever, imho.
  12. Imagine a world where that moron Tommy fucking Tuberville is a got damn United States Senator. Oh, wait ....
  13. Don’t Let Donald Trump Take Your Soul, Too. We’ve seen it happen before. https://www.thebulwark.com/p/dont-let-donald-trump-take-your-soul-lolnmr-integrity
  14. I am, of course, not a lawyer like the other 98% of the Surl, but I would think she'd be fine just so long as she's subpoenaed. (sp?)
  15. Pre-emptive strike from Hegseth's attorneys to keep the sexual assault accuser quiet. This fuckin' guy .... Hegseth's attorney threatens to sue sex assault accuser if she repeats 'false' claims and he's not confirmed https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/hegseths-attorney-threatens-sue-sex-assault-accuser-repeats/story?id=116531786

  17. Seems like it doesn't suck.
  18. ... and they're already taking credit for the economy, stock market, and bitcoin value (lol).
  19. OBTW, icymi, Mario thinks a 12th team will be allowed into F1. https://www.planetf1.com/news/mario-andretti-f1-12-teams-hint-gm ...and Graeme Lowdon will be TP. Lowdon named as Cadillac’s F1 team principal https://racer.com/2024/12/05/lowdon-named-as-cadillacs-f1-team-principal/
  20. Probably too many Americans are pussies. These people weren't having it. At all. Ronny Chieng's Daily Show segment on it was one of the best things I've ever seen on TV. Go to 5:30.
  21. Didn't see this posted. Surely this is normal. Last week, Trump received $18 million from a Chinese national accused of fraud and under investigation by the SEC. "The First Corruption Scandal of Trump’s Second Term Is Already Here Donald Trump’s ties to shady crypto bros are only getting more troubling." https://newrepublic.com/post/188957/trump-18-million-justin-sun-banana-charged-fraud-sec
  22. Yep, and the current PU formula happened because of MB, Ferrari, and Renault all wanting it, at least in the end. Catering to manufacturers who may or may not stick around (usually not for long) is and has always been a bad idea for F1, at least on the sporting side, and to some extent on the business side as well.
  23. I love how all of a sudden Lewis instantly becomes that little boy kart racer all over again when he hears the siren song of that V10.
  24. Yep. It makes no sense. They're going all in on alternative fuels, and despite what we were told when the current PU fomula was introduced, combustion research is not at a dead end, and combustion efficiency gains are still being made .... so why not go simpler, with a much lighter V10 on alternative fuels, and no batteries & electrical drive component at all. You wanna sell alternative fuels? Show the world how efficient they can be in simple NA engines. Of course there are multiple side benefits, like bringing back that sound, being able to make the cars much lighter and smaller, etc. And re: making a racing series green, yeah, it's just idiotic greenwashing.
  25. Yeah I dunno why they went so underpowered with this set. The current PU formula was a huge mistake for F1 imho, and now they're going to follow that with another mistake - with the added 'bonus' of it being underpowered. They're just going from one idiotic PU formula to the next.
