Sports clubs. The answer is Sports Clubs, from pickleball to soccer to softball.

For a guy who hates "socialism," he sure does enjoy traveling to Europe and California.

It was "Deadeye Dick." The premise was so absurd I had to buy it. Good God, that set off a chain of events.

This Pope? The Previous Pope? Have the TechBros read or listened to what these guys have said? (of course not). Pope Bob and Pope Frank know what is what.

Rhode Island and Providence Plantations decided to forego the Philadelphia convention on their own volition.

The Constitution is soooooo ad hoc.

There was no unitary, founders' intent.

This has such real consequences. My daughter can spend next summer, on campus, working in the lab of a brilliant Organic Chemist who is part of a group doing important research: if there is funding. Otherwise, she is answering the phone at the local pizza joint. Multiply that 1000x over.

The arrogance of this is hilarious. You are threatening to walk out on the Pope? He's the Pope. You're a Techbro. Stay in your lane.

My suburban Pittsburgh pick-up soccer group is West Africans, Latinos, a few Desi, and a bunch of white dads, along with their sons and daughters. The high school white kids have absolutely bonded with the West African post-college guys and gals. The West Africans: half of them are nurses.

This is litterally what the entire US system of government was designed to avoid. This dude thinks he's Walpole without the Whigs.

Exactly. You can criticize Trump foreign policy nonsense without simping for Iran, the Houthis, Hezbollah, China, or Russia.
