Florida. Only reason he's still alive is his skin color.

Pretty good discussion of this.

I'd rather see people panic buying toilet paper than ammunition

Cut a hole in the tennis ball, stick it on the muzzle of your AR-15 and call it a silencer. Bet you could smuggle in a number of tennis balls that way

First off, epic joyride. That's how you end up with a nickname you get to explain when you're 50.

Second off, we keep saying more people should take public transportation, and I feel this arrest sends a mixed message.

Slider style EDC utility knife. Small, lightweight, and because the blades are cheap and easily replaced you can abuse them - cut on concrete, pry stuff, if it breaks the blade, not a big deal.

https://a.co/d/gouJDKV typical example but there's lots of different ones.

Bonus - these blades are more expensive than most, but still cheap and last a lot longer than standard blades do https://a.co/d/bQj77Qz

They don't get anything out of calling him, so he doesn't understand why they'd do it. Someone else told him it's a nice thing to do and that acknowledging it is helpful to him.

For mail in balloting at least in my state you sign the return envelope NOT the ballot itself.

Didn't change mine, but I'm the opposite of a low information voter, and just based on p2025 I'd vote for Weekend at Biden's.

Your pocket bomb doesn't have any actual bomb in it (unless the Israelis put some there, like the Hezbollah pagers and walkie-talkies.) They can burn fast, but afaik they don't explode, just like gunpowder doesn't explode. It burns very fast. On the other hand, they can produce gas and burst the battery pack, which might be considered an explosion, but I'd argue it's not actually one.

Which isn't going to make someone who has it happen in their pocket feel any better.

If I have my physics wrong, please correct me, I'm not a lithium bomb expert :)

The most interesting part of the article

"One of the things that we have done in my office, for the drop boxes across the counties, is make sure that they have fire suppression equipment inside of those drop boxes," Fontes said during a Zoom call with election officials on Thursday. "Unfortunately, the United States Postal Service doesn't have that."

Locked in courtroom will have to do for now, he's already not taking it well.

I figure we're going to see the first chapter from The Ministry for the Future at some point. This is getting close.

The cat is a FUCKING LIAR

People like that thrive on spite.

Has to be Volcano (1997) by far. Has the best over the top scene :) https://youtu.be/R01bex9Ejvg?si=yAcwY7vGTxL0JD7s

Either way the nickname should be "Subway".

"Did you meet Subway?" "... What?" "You gotta hear this story, dude! Gramma, tell Ricky your story!"

"Did you meet The Subway Murderer? Dude, don't fuck with her, she runs this cell block."

This is just a great opportunity for a poor person to rent their phone out, you gotta look for the silver lining in the capitalism!

That's not at all how it works. Micro$oft paid a LOT for those congresscritters, precisely so they DON'T have to pay for it. We do. We always do.

Well ship.

Yeah it just doesn't let up here for a few months. I don't think we're going to hit the record set last year for 110°+ days (55 iirc.) I bike early morning when it's "cool" at 85°ish. Cause doing stuff outside in the middle of the day gets you this.

Weekend at Sammy's

You know why

If you get the chance to read or listen to "The Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory" by Tim Alberta, do it, it was super interesting.

You need to read Magic Pill by Johann Hari. There are pros and cons and he is very good at explaining both sides.

People like that live to 110 on pure spite and meanness. And if you think he's not gonna run again in 2028, regardless of the outcome in two weeks...

100% worth the read.

Picking a VP to meet demographics rather than because they'd be a good president if the worst happens is... problematic, and I think that's exactly why she has the job. She wasn't great during the 2020 primary. Whether because the Biden team has sidelined her the last four years or some other factor, is irrelevant in the critical fight to not lose our democracy.

If I had my druthers it would be Whitmer/Shapiro - two popular (at least among their constituents) governors from swing states. The Dems have a number of promising candidates honestly - imagine that debate with Newsom instead of Biden - but the swing state issue tips it for me.

To your last point, according to Hari, generics for semaglutide should be available in 2032.
