    Maybe I misread the article, but basically he was a freak who got boners and jizzed everywhere during massages enough to get banned from a few places, but then the bans worked and he stopped doing it? 

    Seems like a pretty big hit piece after the core of what happened, doesn't excuse the behabior, but belaboring the point generally means it's more about damage/attention than it is about anything else.

    Also, if you want to do this kind of shit just hire a professional don't do it to random massage therapists, that's lame and stupid. 

    Asking the checkout person "Does this mean it's free?" when an item doesn't scan is lame and stupid. Telling the waiter "I hated it" when they take your empty plates back is lame and stupid. Sexual assault is a bit more.

    He was also said to have supplied the Doors, making Harrison Ford responsible for possibly as much of the decade's best music as acoustic guitars and draft-dodging.

    This isn’t new.  Almost every business I work with has an app in addition to their site because they can create a better UX in an app.  It’s only logical.  What has been done here to support web is fantastic, but it will never be an app.

    L-O-Fucking-L if you really believe that the reason every company in the world wants you to install their app is so that they can create a better UX. Nothing to do with creating captive audience or sucking up and reselling data. After working in tech you really believe that every app is better than a website? I shudder to think of what a wreck your iPhone must be.

    I may be one of the only people on this site that actually thinks some of RFK Jr's ideas are good.  I am all for trying to take some of the chemicals out of our food supply and making the food we eat healthier.  I am all for ending Rx advertising on TV/radio.  That being said, the idea to stop vaccines like the polio vaccine is bat shit crazy and like many on here know, dangerous to all of us. Can't wait for the small pox parties in the future and every other horrible disease we have found ways to eradicate but I guess if we just stop relying on stupid shit like science and modern medicine, and just pray to Jesus that will take care of us. 

    The problem is it sounds great but makes no sense. What does "take some of the chemicals out of our food supply" mean? Water is a chemical. Starch is a chemical. Manure as a fertilizer is a chemical (or a mix of chemicals really). If you want to discuss specific chemicals to take out then great, I'm all for it, but I haven't seen anything like that from him. It's just using chemical as a scary word to push through whatever pseudoscience he wants to push (and make money off of).

    And kids let this be a lesson to you (if they have caught the guy).  If you are on the lamb one of two choices.  Stay in a huge crowded city bin Laden style and hide in plain sight amongst the masses OR go remote, really remote.  Don't be a dipshit and go to some smaller to medium-sized town that is still in the middle of the most populated region in the country.  You've lost all of the noise of the big city and get none of the benefits of bumfuck Montana or wherever.

    I honestly don't remember, had he hit one today? 

    He had a great lob into Golden's arm for something like 30-40 yards, I think the pass to Wingo had some depth to it as well. Ewers has been pretty decent on deep ball, not to mention the play you were bleeding about drew a 15 yd penalty.

    Georgia vs. Texas for 5-star DL

    OnTexasFootball was told by a source Tuesday night that Texas believes Georgia is the competition for 5-star DL Justus Terry (Manchester, Ga./High). As we have said, Kirby Smart does not want Terry to sign with Texas. Georgia doesn't want Texas to start gaining that level of traction in the state. This should be considered an upset win if it goes Texas way December 4. 

     

     

    This is how the 9.95'ers earn their money. Top secret sources that reveal tidbits like Texas believes Georgia is who we have to beat for Terry.

    By the way - and this is really important: those of you who contribute to charities, help people out, and do things to insure that people in society aren't hurt as badly.....STOP DOING THAT.

    ...

    The American people will not learn about the face-eating nature of leopards unless and until they actually feel the agony of the leopards chewing on their face.  So, stand back.  Take care of you and yours.  And let the leopards feast.

    I can agree with some of the concept here but think there needs to be a little bit of focus here. I live in California - it didn't vote as blue as I would have liked but it is still clearly blue. My city was largely blue. What would stopping my contribution to local food bank do? For one it's hurting the people that, at least in my community, are not responsible for our national government. In addition, their suffering is essentially invisible to those with money and power. They wouldn't care if there was starvation due to tariffs / inflation.

    Women's health - I am more conflicted there. I don't think I'd be able to persuade my wife to stop PP donation if I tried. I get that white women need to experience some of the real impact that loss of reproductive freedom would have but again, white women aren't really why we have the national government we do. 

    Local help is still necessary and good. Voting for things like rural broadband (or shit, anything rural)? Fuck 'em. Lobbying for Gaza / supporting student encampments? Fuck 'em. Not sure what else withdrawing support would do to actually impact those who are responsible.

    heh.

    We had two elderly kitties (13 years old), and it was pretty fun to feed them the canned food, because they'd mewl like little kittens when you'd bring it out and hang all over you.

    THEN we added an actual kitten to the mix and bringing out the canned food s absolute chaos.

    And that was the moment I truly understood the Three-Body Problem.

    You fucking monster, you actually added a kitten to the canned food? You want cat zombies, this is how you get cat zombies!

    So this is another elementary rhetorical technique called the Strawman Argument. Trump didn't say Nazis are fine people. I assume you know that. He said "you had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides."

    Trump's words that day were SO BAD that this is one of the few times he's actually given something like an apology. If you want to die on this hill, bless your heart.

    https://www.congress.gov/118/meeting/house/116973/documents/HHRG-118-ED00-20240417-SD006.pdf

    Also the group that he was referring to was just a group of nazis. There was no other side there. Trump's biggest superpower is he can spew random words and his supporters will just decide what he means. @Incredulityis totally lapping up the false narrative that Trump didn't call some nazis very fine people. If I rob a bank then later say I didn't rob a bank, it doesn't mean I'm not going to trial for robbery.

    This is a good example of the twitter misinformation machine, and why embeds should be turned off in the CR. 

    There are zero media reports out there that identify this individual as a republican. That appears to be totally manufactured nonsense. The situation in AZ was a man lighting a regular USPS drop box on fire, not a ballot drop box. Every article I have seen shares quotes from the investigating officers that report that the fire was not politically motivated, was not targeting the election, and the perp was an individual well known to the local police that wanted to do something to get himself arrested. 

    But here we are. 

     

    Here is an article directly related to this incident:

    https://www.azfamily.com/2024/10/24/usps-blue-collection-box-damaged-by-fire-overnight-phoenix/

    Here is the police statement:

    Here is another from a prior run in with police:

    https://www.abc15.com/news/crime/pd-duct-taped-suspect-held-for-glendale-police-after-attacking-surprise-officer

     

    Replying only because I suspect a significant number of posters have Ana on ignore, just an important reminder that it's not just @tx 3 putt who posts semi-random tweets that may or may not be bullshit. Always good to be a little suspicious about news we want to see.
