  1. Right, although this post was not at all intended as a criticism of Petzold or anyone else. I just found it amusing that it was headlined in such a matter-of-fact manner. You know, “Here goes Tarik Skubal starting his inevitable Cy Young season!” I think that’s great! 💀
  2. Maybe in the story, but the headline is not quoting anyone.
  3. Not putting too fine a point on this, are we?
  4. I remember seeing him on TV and wondering whether in the future all men were going to be bald for fashion reasons, and I'm not far from wrong, as long as we're talking middle-aged white guys otherwise embarrassed about losing the hair only on the tops of their heads.
  5. As long as we're posting links from unvetted sources and demanding the MSM report on it, when is the MSM going to report on this? CMV: Russian propaganda machine holds a major role in the pro-Palestinian movement 😉
  6. You just can't quit me, babe. 💋
  7. I guess it's not for nothin' they call him Orange Jesus.
  8. Looks as though his BS (from MIT) wasn't enough to save him.
  9. Curb is definitely going out at the top of its game.
  10. True though this may be, given how invisible George has been for 15 years, I don't think he's the guy.
  11. True as this may be, pursuant to my edit after you posted this, George Bush Jr. is not the guy.
  12. I think if little Bush said anything, he'd be dismissed as just another RINO. Nobody who loves Trump thinks George is anyone special, and the gesture wouldn't mean anything unless it would peel off people from Trump. The moral suasion is what's supposed to be the point of such a gesture. Furthermore, George is not even considered a pillar of whatever is left of the moderate Republican faction, since he has been almost literally nowhere to be seen since 2009.
  13. It's disappointing only if you actually expected something. George Bush Jr. was just another in a long line of recent Republicans with no real interest in governing or statesmanship. He is merely a bridge between the Gingrich Contract on America and Trump.
  14. Good-looking girl and a swipe at Javy Baez—what’s not to like?
  15. Can Jane Does be sold in Maryland?
  16. As I was just saying … 😏
  17. I think it’s more insidious than that. I think much if not most of the conspiracy thinking is tied directly to evangelical Christianity. Of all the parts in the book, they embrace all the parts that has the magic in it most tightly, and now they think incredible, unbelievable things happen everywhere around them all the time. Of course, they don’t see the actual magic happening in front of their eyes, but they still believe the magic is behind everything they despise, so they hold up their hands and whisper to the skies hoping for countervailing magic to defeat it all. In the meantime, they are casting votes for and sending their living wages to anyone who makes a show of patronizing their magical thinking, hoping their efforts will hurt the people they most despise. It’s really very sad, but even worse, it’s quite dangerous, and the ironic part is, the people who get hurt most of all by it all is themselves.
  18. How did you break away from it all? Did you read something that shook you and got you thinking? Did you just wake up out of a walking stupor? Did loved ones run an intervention for you? Enquiring minds wants to know!
  19. Well, if it’s not satire, then she’s inadvertently making a pretty good run at it.
  20. Just change pieces. That should do it.
  21. Even the White Sox are going to run into a run here and there …
  22. Good thing he didn’t because who knows what kind of difference that might’ve made!
  23. And I see on the replay that he landed square on his right elbow. Ohhhhhh doctor …
  24. I just looked up and I have Dan on under the video—is she the fiancée or the sister?
