  1. The first is a shitty fucking goal and the second -- affordable housing --is a good goal. The first reflects a warped mind and the second a lofty goal.
  2. Okay. So sounds like a fine option if Landers isn't running against him. Not sure why the controversy.
  3. Haven't seen anything that would warrant that characterization. He's swinging for the fences in terms of NYC affordability. Sounds pretty smart to me. So, he's more antagonistic towards Israel than I am? So are most people. He comes across as the guy who was slightly more liberal than one when one was in undergrad.
  4. It seems to me that the primary bias that most American have, if they have one, is that they think of all Muslims as fundamentalist. Whereas they are willing to parse the hardshell and softshell Christians and make allowances to Christians who aren't fundamentalists, they don't give Muslims the same leeway, ant throw them all into one big batch. That's the problem. The other problem is conflating thoughts about religious beliefs with global politics.
  5. Judaism, at least in America, tends not to constantly point out that if you aren't part of their club you are totally fucked in this life and the next. If that was the case there would be lots more antisemitism here than there is. Israel profoundly fucked up their response in Gaza. Repercussions.
  6. I'm sure he will, Nancy.
  7. No subs until everyone is obviously exhausted! How we gonna beat Mexico unless we are in shape!
  8. I miss pinche Pescadito.
  9. I think the last few years have disabused them of that. I feel like Stanford fans, at least, are in the camp of pure survival (those that will do anything to preserve non-football/Olympic sports and still have a football team and or figure out a way to retain all the other sports without a football team). I can see them joining this non-Power Pac12 and having a competitive football team and still retaining and having success in the non-football sports. The ones who are all about academics and don't care about sports would rather us just join the Ivy League or create a West Coast Ivy League. Cal and Stanford are going to use academic reputation to recruit, and not to make decisions about conferences.
  10. I just think it would be good for Stanford and Cal to get back into a "west coast conference" just because of the still unsettled nature of everything.
  11. At some point, it would be nice to get to a point where we all don't repost idiotic shit. We all know it's out there and will always be out there. Idiocy from important people (Trump). Sure. Random idiocy?
  12. Only finished four episodes this season. I liked 3. It was stupidly sweet but at least that is something. With nothing happening the "methody" acting gets tiresome. Instead of just having a conversation, you have to get the two second "expression shot" before anyone says anything. Syd is the fucking worst. She has to do "bug eyes"/count to three in response to any communication. But they all do it. It's like the director is telling them to stretch out the conversations so they can reach their "minutes" quota.
  13. No kidding, although she stayed pretty modest for the most part.
  14. You say that as if there is any difference in those countries and/or continents whatever.
