that should result in me selling all Ford shares and shorting that stock until BFJ was dead.

Tuck going

I endured most of SOL directly. I remember sleepless nights. I have all the scar tissue. Matt Millen shouldn't be able to work in football after what he did to the Lions though.

The drive for 75.

Screw it, i'll play: I'd say there was still a glimmer of hope going into Matt Millen's tenure.

why are you guys relitigating the badness of the last 30 years?

This is what China has right now with their internal controls. Once you have someone imposing his version of the truth on the public square, the latest innovations in AI and machine learning as well as the brute force of quantum computing will allow the oligarchic asshole who has taken control greater and greater control over speech in all forms. Once he starts to kill off critical thought from media companies --both figuratively and literally (e.g., Putin's Russia), to espouse anything like dissenting thought will be punishable by death. Don't think techbros like Elon are not salivating at the prospect of this. So, fight him here in 2024 and any asshole like him.

again..

This feels like a big story that won’t surprise but will impact many

I'm not going to hold my breath an on anything involving Xi's ambitions but seeing that Europe has basically curtailed all of the BRI joint projects since 2020.

The political price she would have paid allowing China to build a spy base in Michigan would be off the charts.

This is a good development. We can build batteries and cars without the PRC. This was something I felt would bite Ford and the Gov in the ass if pursued without regard to the National Security implications. https://www.freep.com/story/news/local/2023/09/25/ford-marshall-project/70964122007/

Ok, ok...its hyper-spectral criminality.

Apparently a man under several indictments across multiple jurisdictions was in the Palmetto State Armory in South Carolina today and was talking about buying a gun. I hope the sales people warned him that attempting to purchase was a violation of his bail conditions.

Wrong thread. This should be in the gun crimes thread.

Also, i'm happy that Clemson's holier than thou routine is falling by the wayside.

positive development

Notre Dame played with only 10 men on the field on the last two defensive snaps?! That's just reckless.

cade mcnamara not being magically productive

the key repository of the information is in Moscow.

started like poop...finished like champs

So, while driving my mentally handicapped brother around he wanted to listen to Valenti. I noticed that they had a commercial for the Trump rally with the UAW on his show. It sounded like the Brian Cranston voice even though he's a very anti-Trump figure. I was momentarily very angry with that guy... then I realized it isn't hard to get voices that sound like that.

Milley’s speech to the Ramstein group this week was pretty amazing

Finally we have ATACMS

Wow
