  1. that's interesting. you think boggs from shawshank was a rat too?
  2. i hope someone has some crisis of conscience over this and ends up doing something interesting with it. maybe spoof the censorship rules by doing a whole set like Norm's roast of Bob Saget being ultra G rated puns and other weak stuff. or maybe make fun of Saudi government by pretending it is someone else they are talking about: "don't you hate it when they dismember journalists in . . . uh . . . england?"
  3. I sorta feel different about the Saudi thing. US was big on exporting its culture through Hollywood for the last 100 years. I think its good for us as a country to do this.
  4. Sorry about this and I hope you don't feel targeted. I doubt we will ever know why he did this. There is no result to "hope" for, as far as uncovering a motivation. My only suggestion is that anyone telling you why they think he did this is likely telling you what they want to convince others is his motivation, for whatever their own purposes.
  5. Kumar on opening day roster?
  6. risky click of the day
  7. i just watched it and now it is at 9,900,001. so it definitely registers.
  8. all the tylenol talk right now gives me tired head. we have brain worms on one side arguing X. we have half wits on the other side arguing Y. it's very clear that 99% of the voices out there talking about this have an IQ of 85 and no medical training. it's just a waterfall of false analogies, intentionally misrepresenting positions, statistical illiteracy, 'brave' stances, whatever else performative politics, none of which has anything to do with the merits of anything. as i type this beef, it seems like i'm just describing the world we live in for everything. but this particular topic the arguments and evidence people are relying on seem so facially dumb that it feels worse than the typical topic now.
  9. load up those transports NOW. ship those weapons before he changes his mind.
  10. true story: local school got scammed out of about half a million dollars. dude up in the DFW area buys a lambo with it or something. feds catch him. female school superintendent has to go the trial to testify because his defense is it was it wasn't fraud, it was payment for sexual favors.
  11. Didn't really pay attention to my 401k investment. it was automatically invested in something called "Fidelity Freedom Index 2045." Start looking at it last year. Here's how it compares to the S&P 500. Year Fidelity Freedom Index 2045* S&P 500 Total Return Difference (Fid vs S&P) 2020 +16.42 % +18.40 % Macrotrends+4SlickCharts+4SlickCharts+4 Fid −1.98 pp 2021 +15.95 % +28.71 % SlickCharts+2Macrotrends+2 Fid −12.76 pp 2022 −18.24 % −18.11 % SlickCharts+2Macrotrends+2 Fid −0.13 pp 2023 +19.90 % +26.29 % SlickCharts+2Macrotrends+2 Fid −6.39 pp 2024 +14.16 % +25.02 % SlickCharts+2Macrotrends+2 Fid −10.86 pp I talk to the Fidelity and say "what the fuck is this thing? it's worse than just getting something that tracks the S&P by a mile?" have to listen to some idiot tell me how sophisticated it is. i politely nod and immediately go mid-year last year to change my investments. i can invest in stuff that just tracks the S&P500. Start putting everything into that. Investment YTD Return as of Aug 13, 2025 Fidelity Freedom Index 2045 ~ +15.63 % StatMuse+1 S&P 500 (Total Return)** ~ +9.9 % AP News FUCK! GODDAMMIT
  12. there are deep cuts and shallow cuts. in the latter, they basically don't shave topsoil off. it's all organic matter. quick growth of the grass starting with left-behind root structure/runners, lots of fertilizer, lime means constant regrowth so there is plenty of new organic material to decompose and make new soil to replace what little is lost. constant cover means that wind doesn't get to erode it either. for stuff with deep cuts, they have the exact problem you are saying. you can't keep regrowing there. it's for projects when you need to bring in the soil because you are planting on something that sucks. but you're strip mining the farm.
  13. i like that they picked the most boring photo to promote it too.
  14. My VUG vs. SPY (life in an oligarchy) theory continues to hold water. So much wealth is piled at the very very top. "I wish I woulda" talk is the lamest in stocks, but I left a lot on the table by only moving about 10% of my SPY to VUG. If I had the courage of my convictions I would have done 50%.
  15. the unstated premise is "have you not read the regulation that overruled the constitution?"
  16. damn, pitt. you scary. you can lose stafford and still be a top 4?
  17. the tariff analysis i saw was that the US companies were bearing 2/3rds of the increase, the foreign manufacturer 1/6 and the consumer 1/6 (i.e., inflation).
  18. i don't know if there is any conclusion to it. it's not like i have any doubt about the dude's guilt. the argument that the texts aren't real is pretty compelling to me though. so rarely does evidence look exactly like something from a self-incrimination-by-numbers kit. it is just weird. HI SWEETIE WHAT ARE YOU DOING? DEAR LOVE, NOTHING. JUSTSTANDING NEXT TO A NOTARY DISCUSSING MY VIOLATION OF THE AGGRAVATED MURDER STATUTE UNDER UTAH LAW
  19. if it means anything, i love you.
  20. Spears getting this good this quickly is bad news for the rest of the country.
