  1. My hope is that a lot of this will be solved in the upcoming 10 years when a bunch of old people die. Anecdotally, those people in my family retired, are bored, and decided to spend their golden years binge watching Fox and being angry about a bunch of things that don't remotely impact them (e.g. Drag Shows when you live in rural Iowa). Hopefully the next generation of olds will be more jaded and less susceptible to media sensationalism. Wishful thinking I imagine.
  2. Got 8 in today in Lyons, CO. Mostly blue but that didn’t stop me from eating crap. Back tire spun during a technical section killing my momentum. At least there were several large rocks to catch me. Thankfully I was climbing at the time so damage was minimal. That said, it was still a great day.
  3. Yikes, heal up. I tried to do that myself multiple times yesterday. If I continue on with my current approach I should be sharing similar photos in the future.
  4. No, but just added it to my short list. I love Nederland and know some decent dispersed camping sites up there. Might try to give it a go next weekend.
  5. Front Range Colorado has been kind of the opposite of other parts of the country this summer, wetter and cooler (I think) than usual. Staying in the 80s this weekend so it makes the decision to ride super easy. I applaud you for getting in those morning rides though
  6. Got 7 miles in after work tonight. I can't think of a better way to reset after sitting in front of a computer all day.
  7. Spent 4 years as a teenager living in Alaska mountain biking. Then my family relocated to Southern Illinois and I said F doing that anymore. A lot of years have passed but I went up to Steamboat Springs over Memorial Day weekend this year with a bunch of friends that are riders. After day one I was hooked again and knew it was going to be an expensive weekend. 7 weeks later I'm riding 3 times a week mostly doing local blue trails. Fortunate to live in the front range of Colorado so good access to a lot of trails. Heading to Durango area in roughly a month for 3 days of riding. Hopefully I can avoid breaking myself for awhile.

    USMNT 2023

    Chelsea unloaded Havertz and Mount this offseason. Now, why those other players left to better destinations than Milan for much higher fees, perhaps Chelsea being a shit show currently shouldn't be underweighted. Pulisic might not be starting caliber for only the top 20-25 clubs in Europe currently, that's pretty damn impressive still. He is the best attacking player I've ever seen on the USMNT. P.S. God I hope this doesn't turn into a debate about Pulisic vs. Dempsey vs. Donovan.
  9. Nobody will be crying that pulls the trigger. Hell, auction off the rights and put a nice dent in our national debt. Perhaps charge people to relieve themselves on his burial site after and erase the whole damn thing.
  10. One of NUs biggest disadvantages, perhaps it's biggest, is poor recruiting grounds in-state and neighboring states. NU will likely benefit in the NIL pay to play days. As mentioned, the fanbase is still immense and continues to dump money into the program. NU might be able to pay to get recruits they wouldn't have previously. Supposedly the school embraced and organized NIL efforts early. Will that help Rhule beat tOSU, Michigan, and USC regularly, highly unlikely. That said, I think the fans would be happy for quite awhile if NU was competing well on that next tier with PSU and Wisconsin.
  11. On that subject Rhule's focus on getting more players from Texas appears to be working. He filled his coaching and administrative staff with a lot of people with Texas connections. The 2024 recruiting class has 7 players from Texas currently committed. Mostly of the 3 star variety but the numbers appear to be a big increase over the past 7 years.

  13. I'm glad this individual isn't going to be in your school district ever again. That said, he might end up in someone else's. These people are sick and will absolutely act again. There is zero doubt what his intentions were. I don't think he got a fright and will now stop that kind of behavior. He likely simply learned what not to do next time. I understand you are navigating a lot at the moment but I would encourage you to reconsider involving the police. I have two female family members that were sexually abused, the damage it did to them is immense and they will carry it for life.

  15. I'm pretty sure most of these people boycotted education a long time ago
  16. Was Serena's commercial an Ambien promotional ad?
  17. Still? Or did the Chiefs response minutes into the first quarter matter?

    London

    I have a trip upcoming traveling through Southern England for 9 days. Trip begins and ends in London. Lookin for some neighborhood advice for AirBnB? Heading out to Chelmsford one night and watching a West Ham game in London Stadium another afternoon. Outside of that I will probably be interested in checking out some WWII sites and randomly walking the city to see what I find with plenty of pub stops built in. Doubt I will do any of the major tourist items.
  19. I'm not a fatass but I have certainly been one multiple times in life. I'm in my early 40s (strike one), 5'8 (strike two), and love crappy food and IPAs (strike three). I have to work really hard to stay lean and fit. One of the things I enjoy doing is taking foods I love and finding ways to make them healthier. Monk Fruit in place of Sugar, Greek Yogurt as a substitute for Sour Cream, Almond Flour, etc. Below are a few products I always keep in my house and absolutely love. They help me feel like I'm not on a perpetual diet 180 Calories, 7g Net Carbs, 13g Fiber, 24g Protein 50 Calories, 2g Carbs, 2g Protein, 4g Fat 50 Calories, 4g Net Carbs, 11g Fiber, 5g Protein
