  1. Daniel Rodriguez colorado mixtape glimpse of infinity and then Adam duhon. Shit he’s awesome. Gonna see him in telluride in July
  2. Yeah I worked through the precedent concern pretty quickly too.
  3. I’ve actually seen quite a bit of good news re EVs (growth rate is down but the growth is still incredible), solar panel production, microbes to reduce methane in agriculture, ocean clean up, river clean ups.
  4. This is awesome too. 30% of DR waters now protected.
  5. Any hope now of dislodging these mother fuckers ?
  6. Put another way, just because YOU are a bat shit crazy woman doesn’t mean WE all are… wait, that might not go over here as well as it sounded in my head.
  7. Holy wow Batman. That’s idiotic. Men start wars, men kill people, men rape women, men kill pregnant women, men enslave men. We’d be better off if women were subjugated to men? holy fucking wow.
  8. My 16 year old son is done with the ladies for now. He says they require waaaaaaay too much attention. I’m going to tell him he needs to scope out the team sports girls that don’t have time for him.
  9. Preserving 13 million acres of sensitive public lands seems nice.
  10. Intellectually I’m union agnostic - if labor and capital can work without it fine. its rise in popularity however is a clear indictment of current system, no doubt. I’m all for it at this point.
  11. There is a long history of sanctification through comparing themselves to the evil in the world. The worse they become the worse the evil in the world has to be so they can be the light of the world. its shocking, freighting, and disgusting. It’s so bad. the depth of lies and the degree to which they believe this shit is going to lead us down the brisket path and that’s not a bbq food tour.

    Media Bias

    That’s radio. And on the public tv side I’ve been enjoying the hell out of Frontline from PBS the last few days. The News Hour is pretty good historically I haven’t sat to watch it in a few years. I watch BBC on TV more than PBS and admit to flipping through the majors when events happen. But damn the big three are lazy and are just on a 20 min news loop and talking heads. It’s so bad.

    Media Bias

    Marketplace is awesome. Texas standard, morning edition, all things considered are my other favs. bbc world on early early Friday mornings (like 4am) driving to the coast to go fishing is hella good.
  14. The last few days I’ve been on a truth binge, watching documentaries as much as I can. “Putin and the presidents” and “behind the wall” are two that stand out and came together in my thoughts tonight. Not 40 years since the Berlin Wall fell and these people excuse Russian atrocities. That’s OUR lifetimes. HOLY SHIT. We should not support Ukraine because … the answer for everything, “corruption”. You ask point blank, “are you kidding me?” Have you seen what he’s done to that country? Their response, “where did the money go?” Again, “are you kidding me?” It went to Ukraine you fucking moron. The department of defense acknowledges a 2% error rate in inventories. That’s your reason to let Putin invade? Clinton didn’t have enough time, bush was duped, war in geoegia befuddled him, Obama had no interest in being defined by Putin and ignored crimea, Trump was a fucking Putin clown. And now he’s invaded Ukraine because Biden is weak? “Are you fucking kidding me?” Biden told Obama he had to stand up to him, Biden strengthens NATO, expands NATO, everyone with half a brain in Europe realizes Putin has to be stopped or the balkans are next. And these morons are “just asking questions.” I’m so god damned mad right now.
  15. Still haunted by my 3 hour convo… “if any one was screwed it was Donald Trump.” ugggggh.
  16. Did those women you reference play team sports? I actually have a theory. It’s not mine, a retired successful woman who owned a killer company couldn’t figure out why her women employees were so bad then she decided to only hire those that played team sports growing up and it solved a lot of her problems.
  17. Bro you messed up, now I’ll always see the name Rimbo and see a Klingon. 😕
  18. I wasn't suggesting it should stop, just that I'll watch and not participate.
  19. my (former) buddy listened to me while I explained what the Mueller report really said - this guy did really, really bad shit but while POTUS impeachment and conviction by the senate is the only remedy, and since ALL are entitled to a speedy trial, if I recommend prosecution after his term in office, he will essentially be denied that constitutional right, so I decline to so recommend. I happen to think that is a bullshit take, his recommendation is not an indictment, but here we are.

    LBGTQ

    they don't want to be mean, they want us dead or gone. but if they have to be mean to achieve their goals, they'll do that too.
  21. we almost did this - install artificial turf instead of a lawn - we decided against it because it's really, really fucking hot on the feet in the summer and it's nasty chemicals in how that shit is made. add to that, I have no idea if any of it can leach out under the summer heat. but I'm sure it's a fantastic business right now. I bet there will be a lull if we get a year or two of historical average rain. but I agree yards need to be reduced in size, our front yard is maybe 20x20 with the rest of the front desert style plants in beds (agave, drought tolerant grass, yucca, etc.). our back is a bit larger, but it's on top of septic which helps some. hoping to run select sprinklers 40 mins or less per week, some even less, some once a month if at all.
  22. not sure where here is, but generally yes, 100% they can. you do have another issue with connecting to house plumbing if it's not an original design to have potable and non-potable. while I don't advocate you drink out of the toilet, most houses (including ours which is dedicated rainwater only) do not have separate potable and non-potable supplies.
