    Kash Patel will be confirmed today!

    Well journalistic standards dictate multiple sources corroborating a story, and that those sources be vetted. I suspect you're of the opinion that these outlets just make stuff up, but they do not. Mistakes are made, of course. That's what retractions are for, as well as libel and slander laws. Anonymity of the sources protects them from retaliation. Seems to me that you are more likely to dismiss what you don't want to hear than I am. If you're never going to trust anonymous sources you might as well just believe everything politicians tell you. Maybe you're okay doing that, I'm not.

    Okay So I Sold A Audio Cassette Tape Tonight.

    Yeah, my biggest impediment to listening to them is finding a functioning tape deck/boom box. Well, that and the ridiculous convenience of streaming.
  3. He did some cameos in other Kevin Smith movies (Mallrats for sure, Chasing Amy?) but otherwise nothing I'm aware of.

    Kash Patel will be confirmed today!

    Would you prefer that media just parrot what the administration is willing to talk about? Was Nixon being caught for Watergate a bad outcome? The release of the Pentagon papers? This, along with many other examples, is a fairly new line of attack against journalism and other outcomes one may not appreciate. "Activist judges" and "lower courts can't tell POTUS what to do" are a couple more. These are foundational parts of the American experiment, discarded in the rush to absolve Trump of all potential abuses.
  5. You promised me a dive into the psychological depths of those degenerate freaks that don't drink alcohol.

    Let’s be Honest - Black Sabbath - Ozzy

    It's Friday, bruh. What's with all the tough questions? Voted Ozzy more successful, but Sabbath debut because it was more groundbreaking. Blizzard is one of the great heavy rock albums ever, though.
  7. So let's say you worked with someone that was trans woman, or were introduced through a friend. This individual was born a man but now looks (mostly) female and identifies as she/her. Are you refusing to use their preferred pronouns?

    Tim’s thread about anything but politics

    In this case, I fear the chin is closer to a glass jaw.

    Tim’s thread about anything but politics

    Similar situation tonight for MN. Going to Autzen to get steamrolled by the Ducks. Spread is ONLY 25.5, though. Gophers have a chance, right?!?!

    Spinoff from AC/DC

    This is gonna be piecemeal. Pretty sure the album I listened to THE MOST, all the way through, was Pearl Jam Ten. That album consumed my soph(?) year of HS. Moreso than the other grunge and Seattle stuff that was everywhere back then. I never loved Nirvana or AIC or Soundgarden though I did like some of their songs. That record just hit me. Hard. And then "modern rock" radio became a huge thing, and you couldn't pay me to listen to that album all the way through again.
  12. Fair enough. In my defense, though, you've defended plenty of your Father's "unsavory transactions" so please excuse me for getting my wires crossed.

    Spinoff from AC/DC

    More seriously, I don't know that I can narrow that down. I've listened to a lot of different stuff over the years. I'll give it some thought. Cool topic!
