Welcome to Thunderdome

I was just thought about logging in the other day to see what my new race/sex was.

I kinda want to see the apartment buildings.

I reckon Rust has been ruined a few times along the way.

how DARE Trump do something like this and make me like him more. I'm outraged.

Also, it's time Pulisic, all those chocolate bars, all the hype, all the time being the fancy USA guy whose actually good all the way up to the Champions League. It's time to deliver. You specifically.

Some of our possession down a man in the second half was a beauty. Just heading the ball to each other in tiny windows and keeping the ball controlled with excellent first touches and dribbles into space. Didn't even recognize the team. NEVER seen them to that against actual competition.

I think we can beat Belgium without Balogun. We have other in-form strikers who can score. Just need 1.

It's our super athletic young midfield that has been tormenting other teams anyway.

Not easy, but doable.

True, I’d take the minimal casualties surrender over the other option that was floated, digging in, invading the entire Iranian coast, and having to see American soldiers on suicide drone footage feeds on the regular like we see in Ukr/Ru.

Talking to Uber drivers In Texas how they feel about it ...

We didn't have to pay war reparations after Vietnam though? Losing Vietnam didn't upset the entire system for modern petroleum commerce?

I think. It was a while ago - so maybe I'm wrong.

At least in Vietnam they took the weapons we left behind and immediately used them on China. That was a silver ...

I guess we lost a war today. Uhhh.

I guess I'll wait to see the full deal, if it's even signed.

But uh... it appears the largest unforced error by a President in American Geopolitical history.

Achieved absolutely nothing.

I guess we lost more soldiers in Vietnam/Afghanistan but we never paid them 100s of Billions in war ...

This was fantastic in movie form.

A good book carried by a top of the line performance from Gosling. His best movie for sure.


e: biased as a Gosling fanboy, he also great in Bladerunner and Crazy, Stupid, Love

Project Hail Mary is very good. Rare movie that has me wishing I could watch it again soon.

Despite the insane name, I'm tempted to check it out.

Apparently the kids are vaping pretty hard

"You didn't use a slur when referring to your teammates in League of Legends after the loss, so were going to seek other candidates"

It's genuinely a flip of the coin.

The king of hyperbole vs a country run by asshats who can never "look weak".


It took me longer than it should have to figure out who was who in this analogy. State of the world, and the US!

e: also I didn't realize I just had to click the green button on ...

Also it's spread to like a dozen countries at this point - this is a fucking global war we started.

When did we not have to vote on doing something like this?

I don't care how much we bomb, sink their Navy (again), and declare we are winning.

Iran is the size of 4(!) California's, with similar mountainous terrain to Afghanistan, we wouldn't have enough dudes to put boots on the ground(and actually accomplish anything) if we redid the entire build-up for ...

Reading too! Like it so far.

Nearly done - I thought that the first book is too short for the story that they are setting up, so good to hear there are more to come.

Guess i'll order #2.


*unfinished scared me, but it's just book 8 of the series to come this year, and it already has a cover made ...

About to a foot in Manhattan. Pretty neat on the street and sidewalks. I went to the local law firm's office mid blizzard yesterday morning.... and the intense cold exploded a pipe above their elevator banks. There was waterfall coming out of the elevators. It was like something out of a wild ...

These are the types of weather events that I'll bet make Troy happy he's out West now.

I wish I was. Though I'm going to be holding out in the Northeast, who can theoretically whether the snowpocalpyse better than the South!

Been in Philadelphia for last few weeks on a patent trial. Ends ...
