I'm more obsessed with inefficient systems, which these new restroom setups sound like.

Is that the one with the white sauce?

Late again.

She was awesome in The Queen's Gambit.

Yes, I did. No, I was changing it here after posting it. It's more convenient sometimes to just use the "share" button with "copy link," instead of clicking into the actual post. It worked, then it stopped working. Your way works, thanks.

I was going to post the same thing, but when I tried it a second time, it no longer worked. I needed to paste it elsewhere and change it there.

Thanks.

I was going to ask if she said that with a straight face.

Same.

Probably not. But Robert De Niro may jump up and punch Trump in the balls. https://x.com/lukepbeasley/status/1795467930651578762 Edit: too late by seconds.

That's a lot of werds to tell us you were full of shiot about starting a lot of threads. Methinks the poster doth protest too much. You should take another couple months off, recharge with all of that free time, and rock our world with your 2024 thread.

They stole the idea from a Black Mirror episode. Copycats.

It's not what you know, it's who you have dirt on.

He's come so far, so fast... he wasn't even in the pole last year, and now he is a stone cold lock to win it. :tearsofpride:

I appreciate the response; I'll try to read through it today and respond if needed.

Good (but long) opinion piece from the Free Press which talks about the "Normies" vs. the "Elites," so this should be up @jonmx's wheelhouse. I almost called the thread "Why people like Trump," as that is captured herein. I realize that most Lefties either won't believe what's in here, continuing to think people are dumb and don't get it, which... is consistent with the essay. https://www.thefp.com/p/martin-gurri-revenge-of-populist-normies?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email tl;dr -- Normal people are increasingly sick of the elites

Jerry: What exactly have you contributed here other than drive by Tumblr summaries? Sean: I've started plenty of threads! Jerry: [Data] Sean: [Oopsy. Guess I was wrong. Quick, deflect!] I'd be interested to hear why you think you've started plenty of threads when it's been 15+ months. How does one make that mistake? Did you come || close to posting a bunch of threads, only to back button them at the last minute? And don't have time? You are a teacher -- you get paid to do nothing for three months every year. Take the L and move on.

We're already on lists for being the source of the rumor that Amy Mickelson was banging Michael Jordan.

This is super cool; if you can make it happen and still go to your Grandma's funeral, count me in with the bucket list people who say who cares, it's just money, it's a once in a lifetime opportunity. So why were you invited? Rabid season ticket holder? Minor political-adjacent person? Other?

Lefties and Righties can find common ground on this.

I think Bill Walton was a Buddhist. If so, maybe he'll be re-incarnated as a grizzly bear and eat Weepaws for crapping all over his memorial thread here.

Well, at least you didn't tell me I posted this because I hate young peoplez$#@! Baby steps. Also, it's easy enough to see topics posted. Your last one here was February of 2023, 15+ months ago. And I didn't comment in it. Before that it was November 2022. Quite the prolific thread starter, you are. Have you given thought to what your 2024 thread will be?

Much thanks to all who gave their lives so that we could argue on a low-rent FF message bored. I was going to bump an old thread as the following should be posted every Memorial Day, but I'll just do it here. In Flanders Fields BY JOHN MCCRAE In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie, In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

Heard that this morning, sad. We got to see a lot of Walton with Dave Pasch for Pac-12 basketball (Pasch is one of my favorite play by play guys, does the Cards football and a bunch of other stuff). RIP Bill.
