  1. Maybe AOC is better looking than this one ... We can have a debate about whether she's better-looking this one ...
  2. You mean based on this? https://nypost.com/2024/11/18/us-news/aoc-blames-pro-israel-group-for-democrats-2024-election-losses/ I don't buy NY Post spin.
  3. FWIW, I don't think AOC is the Gaza Jane some make her out to be.
  4. Schumer is an institutionalst at his core, and despite that the foxes are ravaging the chickens in the henhouse, he still believes in Institution writ large. That's what he's trying to protect with his caution. He appears to be trying to shape the direction of Democrats' response, albeit in the most feeble way possible, and it's getting away from him, so he's reteating into institutionalism. He is too calcified to realize we are way, way beyond the point of the institution healing its own wounds.
  5. FWIW, I don't think AOC is anywhere near the Gaza Jane some think she is.
  6. I don't like the idea of something like this changing the face of the shutdown to that of Democrats.
  7. It seems really unprecedented how relatively benign the American occupations of Europe and east Asia were.
  8. Now we know for a fact "woke" means literally nothing.
  9. I don't think we have the manufacturing base in this country to generate pollution anywhere near this level. I don't think we'll get back there until wages for factory workers are driven to south Asian levels.
  10. Vlad is negotiating for a Manchurian envoy.
  11. All good points, although I was not talking in terms of technical economics, either.
  12. Hitler didn't want a war with the rest of Europe, either. He started the war only once he could not bully and humiliate them into handing him the lebensraum on a silver platter that he wanted.
  13. This should go down as one of the greatest Weekend Update bits in SNL history.
  14. I do? That would make us kind of crowded at SS/3B now, assuming Jace Jung is also not toast. Marte also has not hit enough in the high minors to overcome his awful defense.
  15. Perhaps they simply haven't been provided the correct rhetoric to defend it with. Give it a little time.
  16. The rhetoric is off by only 900 years.
  17. I think it's possible Tork's on the block.
  18. Irrespective of whether it applies with Workman and the Tigers, it is a reminder that sometimes even a good player does not mesh with a good organization's good system.
  19. Apropos of nothing, Death of Stalin has become one of my ten go-to movies I will watch every time it’s on, and can turn on at any point in the middle of it and be happy to watch it through to the end.
  20. To be fair, wholesale prices are coming down, so it’s not a complete lie. That said, isn’t the Republicans saying wholesale egg prices are coming down, while we are still paying elevated and even rising prices at the store, the same as when Democrats last year said inflation is under control while people were reporting rising prices at the grocery store?
  21. They make it sound like Hitler, Mao, and Stalin could not have been at fault for their genocides simply because they identified and hired the five percent of their populations who would find it thrilling to carry them out at their behest.
  22. It might not matter because red hats may have the same malady their dear leader does: the one in which a new piece of information completely pushes out the old piece of information which they won’t remember they ever heard in the first place. So when they say, “we never said consumers won’t pay higher prices because of tariffs”, they’ll genuinely believe it.
  23. Extra Larges are $9.79 at the Kroger here in Big Shoulders.
  24. Gage Tater Workman. True story.
