Except he was never "just trying to dunk on political rivals". He's always been pretty unsubtle with his misogyny and racism.

Time to start working on the parents and determine if they're truly broken.

Hahaha, I was about to ask who needs this quote broken down and explained to them any further.

I was never a big cable news guy, but would tune to CNN when actual breaking news occurred or during elections. Have switched entirely over to PBS for occasional news and MSNBC tor events like the DNC or elections where some production value and talking head stuff is more warranted.

Joy Reid on MSNBC, "I think we basically just watched an episode of Ted Lasso."

My wife, who is fairly liberal but often needs to be dragged to the voting booth, has been tuned in to virtually every second of this convention. A switch turned around the time of the debate where she is now beating me to the punch in sharing political news. It's amazing.

God damn, I feel like 20 year-old me after watching a preseason football hype video. I don't know how I'm going to fall asleep.

I remember taking a speech class in college. The professor understandably was obsessed with Obama. The analysis of the state of the union versus rebuttal from Bobby Jindal was fun.

Sleepy Joe outlasted me last night, and I'm CST. To be fair, my sleeping habits do more closely align with someone twice my age.

Off Grid Alaska
You guys are really daring me to turn this into another bird thread. As BrickTop mentioned sage grouse are larger, and along with prairie chickens are grassland birds. Spruce, ruffed, dusky Grouse are all more of woodland birds. The grassland grouse populations are in dire straits, while the woodland species are generally OK and I believe can be hunted.

Those can be tricky little fuckers to find when you're looking for them. And when you're not, they're just hanging out in the middle of the trail (photo from Glacier NP). No desire to shoot, just to see. Weird, I know.

I would LOVE to ask my Trumpy parents to babysit for a date night and come back home decked out in Harris-Walz paraphernalia.

2024 Paris Olympics
Golds now tied at 37 with China. Do they have more bullshit events to win or should basketball put us over the top?

Unless Sydney decided to run without hurdles. That would be an event.

If I found myself moving that fast and looked sideways, I would immediately eat shit or veer into another lane.

My dad grew up in rural Minnesota, is incredibly handy, paid his way to technical school and gave us a comfortable and caring upbringing. He is so like Tim Walz in many ways, yet very likely is disgusted by him, for reasons I will make him articulate before this election.

Woodworking, DIY, and home repair thread
Question about painting baseboards... They're in decent shape, outside of door frames and windowsills, which have a decent amount of chipping. How thoroughly do I need to sand the chip-free areas prior to painting?
