  1. Congrats!
  2. Because P-90s slay, and they slay even harder in the bridge position.
  3. He attacked our Federal Court filing system…yesterday I think? Kind of a “see what we can do” moment. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/12/us/politics/russia-hack-federal-court-system.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
  4. Man, that didn't take very long. Of course, he probably doesn't know one has to do with the other.
  5. And somehow find someone else to blame it on.
  6. We aren't Britain and in their case, the war hadn't started yet. Imagine it's mid 1941 and instead of FDR, we have a malevolent Marx Brother as president. I don't see any Churchill waiting in the wings here.
  7. Asked a buddy from Midland about this. He graduated from Lee in the late 80s, went to UT. He said reality is that Midland was founded in 1885, had no slaves, and the inhabitants were mostly midwesterners from Kansas and Missouri. R E Lee was built in 1962, and he believes the locals were highly motivated to name the school RE Lee specifically because of the desegregation battle going on at the time. The other HS in town - the black HS - was named George Washington Carver. Definitely a "separate but equal" vibe there. For anyone in 2025 to claim it was about "heritage" and renaming is a "woke" act, ignores this history. So racists gonna racist, just a couple generations down the line.
  8. Still good. Except as Brisket pointed out, Chamberlain at least had honourable intentions.
  9. What does this even mean?
  10. This is very bad.
  11. 80 million buffoons and also the rest of us, who they have essentially taken hostage to their version of crazy.
  12. That statistician better be looking for a new job.
  13. Who’s going to steamroller DC and make that happen? Because Germany didn’t set up the Nuremberg trials on its own.
  14. Same as it ever was Same as it ever was Same as it ever was Same as it Ever Was

    Agree
  16. I think you can draw a direct line from the mid century mod sleek and simple lines straight back to the simple functional yet beautiful design styles of the puritans through the early days of the New Republic. It doesn’t have to be over the top to be functional and look good. But there’s another thread for that. We are definitely in Louis XVI neo baroque style. Maybe it’ll end the same way.
  17. This. 100%. I don’t think it was limited to the gop, but I appreciate the sentiment. You know how we know the US is the biggest swinging dick in the world? Because you already know. We don’t have to show you. Man, I miss those days.
  18. I’m fucking stealing this.
  19. Agreed. “He offered a deal? Why not take the deal? It’s a big great wonderful deal by my dear friend. “ Or some other verbal diarrhea.
  20. This. By "air truce" he means Ukraine stop doing whatever he wants them to stop doing, so he can roll over them. His word is as good as the dog shit I scrape off my shoe.
  21. I haven't seen much on the actual numbers in the Cornyn v. Paxton saga. I wish they could both lose. But Cornyn is by far the least shitty of the two. So you're probably right, he will lose.
  22. This is all so very dumb. Yes, Houston should've received a Shuttle back when they were retired, but they dropped the ball and NY swept in. The rest all make sense. Of course NASM should have the most historical orbiter. One should go on the East Coast (Atlantis), one should go on the West Coast (I'll argue that should have been Enterprise, but ultimately was Endeavor) and one in the middle of the country (Houston - Enterprise) so that the majority of the population that paid of them could see them. The outlier is of course, Enterprise to NYC of all places that had nothing to do with the program. Moreover, though I love the Intrepid Museum and I'm sure it gets lots of visitors, the Shuttle building plopped down on its deck to cover the shuttle just seems totally incongruous with the museum. I always believed NY getting the shuttle was a sort of sop from Obama to Schumer. The articles above don't say that, but I can't believe that wasn't happening. Especially as shitty as Cornyn and Cruz were to Obama. But coming back now trying to undo this arrangement just seems incredibly stupid and costly. Another example of fixing a problem costing far more than to do it right the first time. It's all spilled milk. Stupid election season play for votes. Hopefully it goes away after. Even politically it seems to be Cornyn trying to assert a remedy no one was asking for.
