    Olympic Games 2024

    When the judges announce the change, you can see Chiles jumping for joy. But in the background you can see that Romanian girl still draped in her flag. Her body language just screams “WTF!”

    Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

    The wife’s away visiting her parents so my evenings are my own for now. My usual D&D group is flaky but I found a store that hosts several groups every Thursday. Anyways, the game starts and we get through the initial introductions. The party sets out in an adventure and we get into the first...

    I almost feel sorry for all those folks who invested in selling that "FJB" merchandise. They might have to ship all their surplus inventory to sub-Saharan Africa with all those England shirts saying "Euro Cup Champs."

    Gas Bandit's Political Thread V: The Vampire Likes Bats

    If Harris gets someone like Shapiro, Warnock, or Whitmer as her running mate, she'd have a highly competitive ticket. All three of them are fairly popular in their home states (and battleground states to boot). For the first time in weeks, I feel optimistic about November. Instead of an...

    They’re confirmed bachelors like my cousin! He lives in Miami with his friend Greg. They’ve been roommates for the past thirty years.

    [Movies] Talk about the last movie you saw 2: Electric Threadaloo

    They used two cats. One of them was mostly white and they had to spray paint (non-toxic) the gray markings onto its fur. Also, I didn't know that therapy cats were trained to be quiet like that. Most other pets in that universe would be screwed because their natural reaction to danger is to...

    I think the cat carried that entire movie on his furry little shoulders.

    Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

    That's not a whine. That's a legit rant. I hope she feels better soon. My whine: We recently hosted the MIL and her two dogs for a few weeks. These dogs are special to put it mildly. One of them got her brain scrambled after she suffered a seizure years ago. The other is thirteen or fourteen...

    Most of my wife's family are hardcore Trump supporters. Her sister (the token liberal in the family) and I are dreading the annual summer trip to their parents. The sister is going to stay there a short time but will escape to Universal Studios with her boyfriend for most of the trip. I'll just...

    Prosecution can appeal, and they'll probably get their appeal. But that doesn't matter because Cannon has delayed this case for months. It almost certainly will not go to trial before the election. She let Trump run out the clock regardless.

    Our WiFi just came back on. Mister Hammond, I think we’re back in business.

    I'm not sure how things are in your area, but try going to a library during the day. They're a high priority for electricity and they're free to boot.

    Weird weather

    We didn’t lose power except for some very brief outages overnight. We lost water pressure for a few hours. About the only problem is AT&T still hasn’t restored wireless.

    The wife and I just got calls from our work. Her school district and my campus are closed tomorrow.

    Full hard brexit. But at least its red white and blue.

    Those would mostly be Indians, Nigerians, and Pakistanis. The educated classes in those countries speak English already (they used to be British territories), and they're skilled. Also, a lot of them already have family in the UK and that makes immigration easier.

    My in-laws get so deeply offended whenever a Confederate statue is removed. I've written pieces for my university about the racist motivations behind putting those statues up in the first place and why they have no place today. The in-laws have no idea that I'm part of the effort to knock 'em...

    At least the state of New York disbarred Giuliani. The president's stooges aren't immune. Giuliani has also declared bankruptcy. Sure, he's "rich people broke" but it still hurts him.

    Okay, that's a fairer assessment. But the fact is that mostly white, rural, Christian states have a controlling share of votes. North Dakota, South Dakota, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming combined only contain two percent of the American population and yet they have ten senators between them. In...
