  1. Just catching up but that game in the fourth set where Medvedev finally broke was such an epic struggle. Edge of your seat stuff. Medvedev is a hard court absolute beast. Nothing like some good sports virtue signaling!
  2. Congrats to Coco! Love those moments between the players and their parents who have pushed them their whole lives and they finally reach the mountaintop. A little dusty.
  3. Well, he fooled me. Looks pretty uncomfortable. Heavy footed. Happy to be proven wrong.
  4. Exactly. What is the building often called that serves as the gathering place for activities outside of mass/services? Fellowship Hall Now with less religion in lives, people look for other groups to belong to, whether it be football message boards or political groups or what have you. It appears to not be working as well in this one respect and I’m far from a Bible beater. Just pointing out the obvious.
  5. The secular shift in our society is behind a lot of this, whatever your thoughts on religion.
  6. What do you not get about people picking ideology over what’s right? Happens to people all over the spectrum depending on the policy issue.
  7. um wow https://x.com/drkeithsiau/status/1698437435451928951?s=46&t=uKnL2agxvSx0rJZI2y3iWw Twitter is jacked but worth clicking. Female MD gives herself an upper endoscopy.
  8. The Green Party has been against nuclear for years. I’m just tiptoeing into this thread but it seems like the disagreement between these two posters is messaging. They want the same thing. One wants to tell it like it is, full story. The other leads with a manufactured metric that excludes a bunch of stuff. Then when called out on it, says oh I count it over here see. It is kind of like adjusted earnings vs GAAP EPS. I think when you’re trying to sway public policy and you lead with misleading metrics, then people’s eyebrows are raised. And rightfully so if we’re being honest given the last several years of public policy. As Charlie Munger would say, show me the incentives and I’ll show you the outcomes. I’m shocked that a Wall St firm ideally positioned to benefit from tens or hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies supports the massive rollout of this stuff and supports it via a massaged metric that conveniently excludes a lot of the costs. I support the honest messaging. It shouldn’t require some funny stuff that excludes all the real costs if it’s really worthwhile.

  10. Great chance at American in one men’s semi against Djoker. Either Tiafoe, Paul or Shelton.
  11. Millionaire rock stars utilizing Che Guevara to help market their music will always be cringy. That said, one of my most vivid drug memories was tripping and watching my friend's roommate play Killing in the Name of in his apartment on Riverside at 18 years old. That's peak Rage age of course.
  12. https://x.com/andyswan/status/1697307516709826829?s=46&t=uKnL2agxvSx0rJZI2y3iWw Big, if true
  13. That was really hard to watch. Got absolutely whooped.
  14. Thanks. That’s a good start. In my head I had pictured starting in Barcelona and ending in Madrid it vice versa so that makes sense. I’ll check back in as questions pop up. Makes sense, although heat doesn’t really bother us. Thanks for chipping in. Appreciate any and all input. Spain is one of those trips we’ve wanted to do for a while, but had to wait until kids got mature enough.
  15. A lot of Spain experts but you seem to be at the forefront. We’ve just solidified with another family that we’re going this summer. What itinerary/cities would you recommend? We’re looking at 10-11 days to give time for travel mishaps. 2 sets of adventurous parents. 10 year old and 13 year old girls 13 year old, 2 15 year olds and a 16 year old boy. My wife will want some nice beach time at some point. Go!
