  1. Seriously….no words. This is an awesome thread, and you guys are doing awesome stuff, all of which is totally beyond my familiarity (more like comprehension). There’s a hell of a lot of extremely innovative and talented people on here. i’m not sure I can get through 2026 without retiring, but whenever I retire, I’m definitely gonna have to check modern (and I use the term loosely) board gaming out. But I will definitely be back to ask the general opinion about the best game(s) for a noob to start.
  2. Since I’ve already invoked TTom today, let me repost this example
  3. A Jack Mormon is a person raised in a Latter Day Saints family who no longer strictly follows the tenets of the church. They might not tithe, go to church - or may drink coffee or like a cocktail. My Mormon relatives told me a Jack Mormon is a guy at the bar who gets angry when you tell a Mormon joke.
  4. Which begs the question: is that what I would call a leftist - or what TTom would call a leftist? Old country club Republicans would all be called left by MAGA.
  5. Whelp. It’s official. I am indeed going to hell.
  6. if you failed to rep this, shame on you! Go back and give some love.
  7. My era war game My older brother and I each have one at our house for when we visit each other. After dinner and old fashioneds we break that out and unsuccessfully try to remember all the rules.
  8. Maybe they should stop a second and think about the Darwinian aspect of what they are saying - that just one semester of liberal culture is capable of destroying and overcoming being raised by conservatives influences your entire life…. Nahhh!
  9. Good ‘ole Horst was a piece of shit thug who just happened to catch a bullet. I wonder if the Nazi party assisted his family in making bank- or at least giving the wife a decent job for a few years before the Russian gang rapes? Kirk’s wife and kids will not starve. And I have zero problems with his kids being taken care of. And on a side note, this Brave New World of drone technology has really created an interesting new synergy of dog poop and cemetery gravesites for the foreseeable future.
  10. Rep!! I was trying to find the quote where Alex picks up the younger girls at the record shop and he can’t understand their slang because of the few years difference.
  11. if I recall that video had some hot Swedes as dancers and partygoers
  12. I read that the Stormfront site was very disgruntled when they cast Heimdall in the Thor movies. I think they wanted him to have to sit in the back of Oden‘s feast hall in Valhalla. So Kash can sit next to him.
  13. Regarding jurisdiction, 18 USC 249 is the federal hate crime statute that might have some legs. Basically, it covers offenses involving actual or perceived race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender, identity, or disability. If the killing involves a firearm that has “traveled in interstate commerce” (low bar, that) it seems you’d have jurisdiction. It might be a stretch, but since Charlie Kirk was a Christian nationalist, and his political beliefs that the alleged shooter disliked so much can be argued to have come from Charlie’s core religious beliefs, there is a decent chance that a sympathetic federal appellate court might agree. And I do think that the Rocket Raccoon Doctrine applies.
  14. Oh. You mean old-timey law? I refer you to the current legal doctrine as annunciated by that eminent legal scholar - rocket raccoon:
  15. Back to hard news: I heard on the drive into work that the governor of Utah says they will seek the death penalty. I haven’t searched, but I thought that Utah was one of the few states that has a firing squad option. Something about some LDS theology and blood atonement if I recall. if I had to bet, I’d guess that the feds are gonna take this thing over and the federal charges will be tried first. The state and feds will probably be elbowing each other for the right to apply justice. Feds gonna win.
  16. Naw. Then Frank won’t get that sweet, sweet pos rep from statsman.
  17. Thoughts and prayers Frank.
