All of that for a single bottle? Just chug it before you go in

ETA: Didn't realize it was shoplifting

I don’t understand the mindset of people who want it to be dark in the morning and bright in the evening.

If you live in the Northeast, it would make a huge difference psychologically.

We get up when it's dark, get ready for work, show up 20 minutes after the sun rises and we leave as the sun's setting. Pitch black by the time we get home. It can be grueling and that one hour could change a lot for the better here

No, BBC… selling FEMALE children for the purpose of sexual favors.

Selling male children for the same would be equally abhorrent, of course.

We're talking about Afghanistan so they most certainly sell their boys too

I'm rarely shocked by generally-passive news (not a NASCAR fan by any means), but man this really got me. RIP

I just want to go on record that I've been shite-talking Massie and Ron Paul on this board longer than Trump's been in politics.

Tonight is deserved and overdue

ETA: Meant Rand, but there have been plenty of Ron comments over the years too

They call it person-first language (ie. man experiencing homeless vs homeless man). They've somehow convinced themselves words precede thought

AI seems to be helping a lot, as is cloud storage (where it can be scanned in real time by the company). The larger problem is coming from the third world

I don't see how any additional surveillance laws would help at all unless things go insanely, illegally invasive

• Shelley Moore Capito (WV)

This one can be easily flipped if someone were to put any money into it.

There's a legitimate challenger this year (Tom Willis) but there's been virtually nothing said about this race to the point where I had no idea it was even happening until a few weeks ago

Capito is not popular but she's going to be more on people's radars if the Senate keeps dragging their heels

What do you think is the best and worst possible outcome for the reps?

I mean, some states are absolutely going to blow this opportunity.

Louisiana, Alabama and Tennessee will go all-in and they should (all should)

MS and South Carolina are going to Indiana us. +1 in SC, 0 in MS would be my guess

Bojack had no business being as great of a show as it was. I'd put it top 10 all-time

In no way has he earned this, but that's the way it works unfortunately. The likelihood that DeBoer lasts until 2032 is about even with the likelihood that anyone at all will care about college football 9 years from now
