  1. I'm not a fan of the look, but here's the explanation the Cubs and MLB put out earlier this year. https://www.mlb.com/news/cubs-unveil-new-baby-blue-jersey-for-2025
  2. *whynotbothgif*
  3. No
  4. This is not entirely accurate. All the Ninth Circuit did was stay enforcement of the lower court's order finding that Trump's order was contrary to the Constitution. So while that's some good news for Trump, it doesn't necessarily mean the Ninth Circuit panel will ultimately side with him when it considers the merits of the issues. The Ninth Circuit did not "overrule" the District Court -- at least not yet.
  5. This. I live in LA County. The notion that "Los Angeles is burning" or that rioting is rampant is laughable. It's MAGA propaganda bullshit.
  6. Just spent a very pleasurable 2 hours on the back patio, smoking a cigar, drinking good bourbon, and listening to sublime song after song written, arranged, and performed by Brian Wilson and his fellow Beach Boys. When "God Only Knows" hit the queue, there was nothing to do but raise my glass in tribute to someone who gave us so much beauty.
  7. Smartphone screen + old eyes = fuckup.
  8. OK, which one of you magnificent bastards is Blinnaggie82? Stand up and accept plaudits for your tremendous troll job.
  9. RIP, Genius. So many great songs. Damn -- Brian Wilson and Sly Stone both in the same week?! Tough to handle for music lovers.
  10. As I stated on another thread, I will be attending one -- the first political rally I have attended in my life. But that's how serious and fucked up things have become.
  11. It seems MAGA has a consensus regarding the language it wants to use to replace the wording on the plaque at the base of the Statue of Liberty ("Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses," etc.).
  12. My old house can be seen for about 3 seconds in Catch Me If You Can. Does that count?
