I was thinking just the other day about whether Josh can take up the kinds of roles that Jeff Bridges once had..... visually they are similar.

I saw this last night on reddit... Bill is so right too. Always bugged me about Jeter. He always did that. Both the lean back and the lean forward.

they can't count that high because DeSantis is banning all the math

Thanks. I think I found it.

The DOJ will appeal but I suspect it’s just about having the authority to do it.

I never heard of this person before but this speech should go national and should be the basis for democrats in the future

I don’t need to know where the line should be to know one should exist. And that shouldn’t be left to a single judge either. stop thinking like a lawyer.

“Why can’t we use the N word if they can?” ”what’s wrong with my bikini girl calendar?” ”that gay guy has to shove his being gay down my throat by always reference his (air quotes) husband” ”all I said was that new gal in accounting had a nice rack…”

they do more than "nothing" Should airlines do away with seat belts? They are uncomfortable and nobody likes them and they 'do nothing'

Why replace the batteries in a smoke detector? There won't be a fire, never has been, and I could fall off the step stool and break my neck.

why not be a decent person and just help as much as possible? zero covid is not reachable in the next few years at least. But if my minimal action can prevent even one bad case then I will do it. It costs me nothing. Once kids can be vaccinated then maybe I will ease up.

I was spoiled last night with the two episodes. Was basically like watching a movie. Will need to dissect that opening scene some more on the DVR.

This is 'merica.... we can't be like foreigners. If they do it then we must not do it or else we aint superior! They're a bunch of pussies.

For me it will be when vaccines are available to everyone. Contrary to popular belief we haven't gotten there yet. On an airplane I would because there's probably going to be kids around on the plane and it's an easy thing to do to sit there with a mask on. It's cost free. If I can potentially help someone at no cost to myself why not do it? I don't wear them to baseball games. I don't wear them to hockey or basketball games because. I wear them to grocery stores because the one I go to is kind of small and can be crowded and it's as much to do with flu as covid. I'm going to keep doing that. I don't wear them at the gym. That's a risk I've chosen to take. Others take it too. If I were ever to be asked to wear one I'd gladly do it. I'll never understand the resistance.

to me the question is why we wear them or don't wear them. If the answer is we don't wear them because the risk is now small enough that it's not practical, fine. If the answer is we don't wear them because "I don't like wearing them" or "because freedom" then that's just being a crybaby. Those are different scenarios...

Too many people have the attitude that if it doesn't work 100% then it's useless. Same people who don't wear helmets on motorcycles.

The Country Music doc has been on again and I've been recording it. I had starrted to record Franklin but deleted them because I knew I would never get to it.

I will because I might be a carrier without knowing it and the 4 year old sitting behind me can't get vaccinated and may be on their way to see Grandma who is immunocompromised. My mask and her mask provide a great form of protection. Her mask and my lack of a mask provides less. I care about other people and will sacrifice a few hours of extremely minor discomfort to do as much as I can to keep people safe. Once again, 2 year into this fucking pandemic and we still have to teach people it's not about you, its about the person next to you.

blaming blacks and Mexicans and then kicking a dog.

It's Comic Con for idiots. Instead of mid level super hero actors, you aint getting Chris Evans or RDJ at one of these, you'll get Sebastian Stan (my wife would leave me for him, she already told me), or Michael Rooker. Instead of being fun and and happy like at a Comic Con, you get herpes from DJT Jr and his ho.

I wish masks were required because people are gross and stupid and places like transport make us be near more stupid and gross people. It's always a dude that says "I don't like wearing them" as if he's been asked to wear a dress. I immediately think "You are a crybaby"

Did my taxes yesterday and am wondering how taxes are done in other countries. Do you have to file like we do in the US? Mine are pretty simple. My 21 year old's are exteremely simple. When I was his age I would get sent a book or go to the library, spend 15 minutes at the kitchen table, then mail them off. Now he had to pay $25 to efile. I spent $100. Been reading how companies like H&R and Turbotax have done their work to make it very hard to know how to file for free. We have to spend money to reconcile what we owe in taxes. I don't mind paying taxes. We need to. But the IRS has all of this information. Why can't they just send us something and we can say "yeah, cool, I agree, here's a check or here's my bank info, put it in." I still wish we had a flat tax on all income above a certain threshold, no deductions. Or make it X% until $Y, then graduate it if you want above thresholds.

I also saw a reference where Jack said Miggy was "building" case for the HOF... implying he wouldn't be one yet if he retired right now. Jack has high standards for the HOF.

What policy did they put in place to cause inflation? Why is there inflation in other countries? You can’t answer that.

What did Abbot accomplish except spoil a lot of food? He’s hurt inflation more than a president did. He is appealing to the idiots
