  1. brother? yeah, it will probably not meet expectations of fanboys but hopefully turns out OK
  2. lulz. i actually picked up a decent watch (at retail) 100% funded by crypto profits, so this hits close to home.
  3. so which state leg member is going to legally marry a fetus first? these people are fucking sick.
  4. yeah, you will need some thunderdome/highlander shit to get anything done. the stuff i see with just 1-4 people on a deed ...
  5. listening to old Followill audio calling HS football is terrible radio. [Dan] I DON'T WANT AUDIO! [/Dan]
  6. fucking hated Duke nerds. kid on our HS team wanted to have Hurley's babies. tool. give me the amoeba defense all day.
  7. same as some others. had the uber app first and never bothered to get the lyft app. wife only rolls with uber black, so that's what we get most of the time. if i'm solo, i will use some the cheaper options, but nothing is as consistent as getting an uber black SUV. I am a tall dude and the back seats of most cars suck ass.
  8. 9yo football. JFC i just don't get the need to win or 'be right' in youth sports as an adult fan/coach.
  9. are there secular tyrannies anywhere (much less everywhere)? do they have a good football team and affordable housing? asking for a friend.
  10. appreciate your perspective. i have not walked a mile in your shoes and yes, schools are trending (more) anti gay and are taking away and preventing existing measures to provide aid, acceptance or common decency for gay students. i just posted what i saw as the underlying facts because the headline was a little misleading wrt to the mechanics of what was going on. it does not make it any less of an attack on the gay community. I hope my post was not taken as support of the policy.
  11. to be fair, i don't think they are prohibiting lgbtq kids from getting food/school lunches. The aim is to get explicit protection for lgbtq kids if the school is receiving USDA funding. this would get rolled up under title 9. headline is a little misleading in that it suggests schools are taking food away from kids because of their sexual orientation. this seems like a better article explaining it https://thehill.com/changing-america/respect/equality/3478940-usda-launches-initiative-to-combat-discrimination-against-lgbtq-people-in-accessing-nutrition-programs/ predictably, GQP is pushing back on offering explicit protections for lgbtq kids (while still providing lunches and such equally to all kids)
  12. about twice as many people voted in this Kansas primary as did last time again, putting a single issue like abortion or gun restrictions and you will get Rs that will vote like moderates/libruls. But getting them to vote for a name with a [D] after it is a bridge too far in most cases.
  13. not a Kansas constitutional scholar, but from what i have read it's in their state constitution (an amendment) that abortion is a right. It's not that just there are no laws banning abortion, but that it is a right for all women. This vote was to take away that amendment and put them back at square one, where predictably, all the handmaid's tale stuff would then be introduced at a time of the GQPs choosing. so the GQP put in that they *might* put in allowances for rape and safety of the mother to try and bring in moderates. But really, had this passed, we would have seen total bans.
  14. yeah, after re-reading, maybe txhorns is nowthis?
  15. people have been calling for the demise of the NFL for some time now. apple and amazon are currently fighting for NFL scaps and willing to pay billions. i think the same thing will happen in college football. people will hem and haw about the good ole days and say no one will watch it anymore...then tune in on Saturday in the fall.
