  1. You know where you can find an awesome walking treadmill? Outside. It’s called a sidewalk. I use it regularly, it’s quite exhilarating.
  2. The best part of that? Most of the replies are AI stans who will never, ever even LEAN towards the concept of “huh, maybe we need to think about some sort of guardrails for this shit.” Nope. They want it all to proceed unrestrained, unchecked. Damn all consequences, billionaires billionairing is worth all the human suffering you can imagine.
  3. What’s this “we” shit? Some of us never gave up on it. And it’s just coincidental that I have a stunningly gorgeous cranium.
  4. I used to have a mounted pair of drakes. There was a period 30+ years ago when I would go jump-shooting ducks on the El Indio canal near Eagle Pass. Spot the ducks down about 70-80 yards away. Drop down below the bank, stall up to about where we saw them, and pop up and shoot when the flew. We used to clean up, and it was the only place I ever saw or shot buffleheads. Man, I miss all the places I used to duck hunt.
  5. Yeah....that "consent not required" is kind of a deal breaker for me. What, did you go to Baylor or something?
  6. Obviously not. And you know exactly why. See, when these previous generations "did things the right way" (often involving massive sucking on the gov't tit), what that MEANS is "anything pretty white immigrants did/do is cool, but anything brown/dark immigrants do is evil." See, e.g., the same administration freaking out about "fraud" issuing pardons of fraud crimes committed by wealthy white people more generously than my wife handed out halloween candy. THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH FRAUD. NONE. ZERO. It is strictly, and ONLY, valuable as a tool to wield against their political enemies. When committed by their friends? It is fucking a-ok, and in fact, is REWARDED. Fuck this whole conversation. Quit playing by normal rules, under the rule of law, with people who have nothing but contempt for it and use it AGAINST you. Fuck that shit.
  7. You'll get Marilyn Mansons and like it.
  8. He thinks about beer, and pussy (consent not required). So, shut up, nerd!
  9. Transparency. Accountability. Good Governance. In this year of our Orange Lord 2025. I'll take "words we no longer need in the English language" for $500, Alex.
  10. FIF how breathtakingly stupid our species is. Seriously, how we beat out the cockroach for global dominance is a mystery to me.
  11. Air traffic safety is woke, you pussy.
  12. Yep. The boy distinctly remembers one of the older fellas going on a beer-lubricated rant about his time in Vietnam, and how he still thought that people thought less of him because of it, and because he never got a college degree, especially young people who didn't even remember the war. Long pause around the fire. The boy is all of 16, pipes up with words to the effect of "I don't think less of you at all. I think you should be proud of your service. And you should be proud of what you do [as the boy gestured to the structure we were sitting under, as the old man had built it by hand]." It got pretty damn quiet around the fire after that, pretty sure the old man and the boy were teared up a bit. I didn't say a fucking word.
  13. Indeed. On just this visit home, the boy was speaking reverently about the years he went on deer hunting/work weekend trips to a friend's ranch. An eclectic group of professionals (with a strong redneck tinge) and some friends and family members who were decidedly more blue-collar and rough around the edges. The boy was usually the youngest member of the crew, so the men relished the opportunity to share their "wisdom," and he wisely drank it up. He was mentioning it in the context of learning how to appreciate and communicate with different demographics and perspectives, having observed colleagues at uni who he said were quite smart....but terrible at communicating and relating to a broad audience. He, on the other hand, has had conversations about global policy with PhDs, and about nitty-gritty "what life is like" conversations with truck drivers and rodeo cowboys and small-scale contractors who have worked with their hands their whole lives, and he can connect with all of them. He's smart enough to know that's a life skill. There's nothing wrong with "girls weekends" or "women's teas." There's also nothing wrong with male-dominated activities, featuring some old-school male dynamics. In fact, there's a whole lot that's right and good about both. One can learn how to be a man, and NOT treat women like shit and as just objects. As one can learn how to be a woman, and not just badmouth men and treat them all like predators and the enemy. We are sorely in need of moderation across the board, and in our abandonment of it, have abandoned institutions and activities that humans sorely need.
  14. Here's a secret about the pudding.....
