And then immediately afterwards frame it as the United States 250th birthday. Shenanigans.

Sure would be nice if the media would stop just repeating his bullshit at face value.

"celebrating 250 years of the U.S. military.." Fuck off. Trump doesn't give a shit about the military. He wants a show for himself on his birthday. They should make that perfectly clear each and every time instead of just repeating whatever inane bullshit hillbilly barbie says at the podium.

One of the best. But messy as heck to eat.

Whether it's a roast pig, or a burger, or a pizza, there's a reason pineapple is always brought up.

Controversial or not, the concept of something being both savory and sweet at the same time is popular (and frankly...delicious) Heck, it's the whole reason Chocolate Covered Peanuts exist.

Pineapple is easily the best for that kind of combination. Apple comes in a close second (hence having an apple butter pork tenderloin, or apple sauce with pork chops, etc...

Why pineapple gets singled out and derided over every other fruit that does the same thing is just weird.

Would it not be "une chat"?

I thought French indefinite articles were gendered, like other romance languages like Portuguese and Spanish.

But it's been roughly 35 years since I dropped highschool french...

Shadowrun on the Sega Genesis. It led me to my favorite genre of...well...anything... It was my introduction to Cyberpunk, essentially. And in a lot of different ways, it's factored into most of hobbies (writing, painting, etc...)

Did his knowledge of the law leave with Elon, too?

Most regular people just use what came with their computer, unfortunately.

So this is a case of a company that made a browser to appeal to techies that didn't see widespread adoption, is pivoting to a new browser that is focused on the central conceit of a product that most techies decry...

Read the room, Arc. Read the room.

allegedly killed CEO Brian Thompson. Let's not forget that rather important bit.

The world doesn't run on "probably". Nothing ever gets accomplished by assuming "it'll probably happen anyway."

Would it have defeated it if they hadn't performed their protest and maybe made a few other legislators rethink how unpopular of a bill it was? If they hadn't protested, would legislative complacency just allowed the bill to pass unremarked on.

The purpose of a protest is to draw attention to something so that other that have the power to do something about it might do something about it.

I'm not saying the bill failed specifically because of the protest, but to think the bill was guaranteed to have failed anyway even without it is naive thinking.

 

Congrats to him on getting his cup. Was always my favorite Senator. I've always believed that rather than building around a single superstar, teams should build around a trio of hardworking regular stars.

Trading EK...I was fine with it. But the team should have been built at that point around Captain Stone, Chabot and a promising young goalie.

 

Been taking advantage of a longer-than-expected stretch of under-employment to get some work done on a pet project.
