Yeah there's a big overlap between Antifa & DeFlock. They both dislike fascists including Flockers.

Would Tillis lead the charge to impeach TRashdUMP? He has always been a Collins—words but nothing else. Of course it's illegal. Talk is cheap.

Was she somehow helping the bad guys? Yes. But she chose to do better and someone needs to protect her from them however they can. Not many will come forward if they can see they won't be protected.

Kelly & AOC will be the best to watch if Dems gain majority.

I get your point but I'm not convinced these creatures have any sort of gender.

Or maybe those are McRibs. That would explain it.

My first Hallowe'en costume was Casper. Can we at least go back to Freddy Krueger, the Alien, and a Predator? These things are horrifying!

Even before Kevin was booted House of Cards lost its luster as writers had trouble making up stories more absurd than what was happening in the WH.

Sacrificing a bishop to remove a queen from the board makes perfect sense. Sacrificing the queen to eliminate a king is a winning move. How do people not see that selecting even a lesser evil is the path to take?

Not a mediocre person, not a great actor. Doesn't mean he wasn't fun in, say, National Treasure.

I think he could be provided a nice hut to inhabit alone on Antarctica 500 miles from anything. Never hear from him again.

There was a kid in the neighborhood who often said incorrect things and misunderstood how stuff worked, but he could not, even when physically beaten (in middle school gym class, yes) be bullied into agreeing or even shutting up. I'd like to know how he's doing now. He certainly gained my respect.

Half a dozen of the heroes of the last year are mediocre musicians and actors. That's ok. I congratulate them on what they've done and said.

MS used to obsolete Windows versions to sell more Windows and sell more PCs for their partners in crime. Now they do it to Trojan Horse more spyware. There's nothing additional that any later version than Win2000 did that was worth a crap.

Me too. It appears to me that we have to impeach & convict at least two Supreme Court criminals to keep SCOTUS from killing any federal investigation.

I was shopping around for a better RV "stinky slinky" sewer hose, because fussing with crappy ones can leave you scarred for life. Inheriting one with your camper is one thing, but do people really buy used ones?
Sewer hose prices, new & used(!)

Yes for knobs, levers, & foot switches, but just stop with the buttons. Mostly STOP with touch screens and menus!

Once the contraitor statue was forced off of UNC campus the neoconfeds had to hide it to prevent "vandals" from continuing to attack it. Reminds me a little of the Haymarket police statue.

I signed a noncompete once. It was supposed to be narrowly worded to avoid employees hopping over to the crosstown rival but was bs that would prevent me from mowing lawns on the side.

Careful design to avoid bugs is much more important than committing featuritis, too. Defects from generated code can be insanely difficult to locate.

Think of the feeling of various (mechanical) knobs. I replaced the RV's shower knobs & the new are sooo smooth & precise & damped just right. The first time I noticed was in HS when a friend got a Blaupunkt stereo. Good unit but early rotary encoders that felt horrible. Even today many feel cheap.

I think we should block traffic on our street. It's one thing to stop a van at the corner and unload a crowd to work the block. It's quite another, and it sucks, to drive from house to house.

Probably. How about we clone AOC and fill two thirds of the House with her & get some real investigations going?

It IS about f'n time, though. Touch screens, menus, even most buttons were ridiculous changes begging to be discarded. I'm about to add a volume knob to my touch screen stereo. Idiots.
