And while I'm soap-boxing, why the fuck is the National Anthem/God Bless America/etc played before/during sporting events anyway. I'm there to see the action - just start the fucking game! this is the correct answer. esp true for the NHL, where the majority of the teams are in the US and the majori...

No need to speak ill of the dead, Donald Rumsfeld's record speaks for itself. But I wonder whether, instead of 72 virgins, Christian heaven means finally learning about the unknown unknowns.

Then I will. He's felching Satan's fiery cock-lava from Rush Limbaugh's gaping asshole fissures.

I don't know why "Missouri Man" is not a thing. We've been giving Florida a good competition in the race to the bottom for a couple of decades, but never seem to catch the same national heat. At least Florida has Little Havana and the Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing. And the Dali Museum in St Pet...

Kid A was my introduction to Radiohead (outside of randomly hearing Creep or High & Dry on the radio), rapidly followed by Amnesiac. They remain, IMO, their apex.

The Bends is probably their best work, IMO. OK Computer is pretty damn good too, and I think it gets such high marks because it's the transition from the anthemic high point of Radiohead into the weird, tuneless, unlistenable shit that critics raved about and everyone pretends to like. It has some ...

The last sentence: In the U.S. health-care system, patients’ interests chronically come behind the interests of big business. needs to be shouted from every rooftop and open window in this fucked-up country until our "leaders" listen to us rather than their moneyed handlers. 🤔 I'm questioning polit...

How is OK Computer considered the best album of the 90''s according to so may polls, when The Bends seems so much better to me? I bought OK Computer when it came out, and still have not "got it". The Bends is far superior listening my mind. Every time I listen to OK Computer, I am dumbfounded how m...

Back in the days when the Berlin Wall came down and the traditional Cold War came to an end, Francis Fukuyama notoriously claimed it was "the end of history. Well, equally speciously but equally dazzled, I now declare the end of news. What can possibly top this story? https://www.nytimes.com/2021/0...

I am in. I bought a ticket this morning.

In other news: water is wet, 2 + 2 = 4, and Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.

I have one extra for the 1st Patterson show in Asheville Saturday June 19th. Face value obviously so $75. Only needed 2 tickets but it was sold out except for the VIP table so bit the bullet & bought all 6. Sold 3 so far but if there’s someone out there that needs one I’m your guy lol I'm pretty su...

You don't seem to have a concept of the gallows humor that develops in almost every medical professional.

I’m against industry and factory farming and wanted to do something about it myself. So I did.

What can big business do to mitigate human impact on climate change?

Is that a serious question?

Prepare yourself for a diatribe along the lines of "China and India won't cut emissions, so we shouldn't either" with a sprinkling of AOC/Green New Deal bashing thrown in for flavor.

Hey Mods, I think you let Luthier Justin back in.

You have absolutely no comprehension of science or medicine. Just as I suspected. You have nothing to add. No surprise. Trump sucks. There. Something you can comprehend. I have nothing to add because it would be a waste of my time attempting to disabuse you of ingrained erroneous assumptions. Carry...

Sorry, a few more. 3) What, specifically, is your hesitation with these particular vaccines? The accelerated timeline on which they were developed and trialed? The relatively novel technology used in the mRNA vaccines? How about J&J? The lack of data on long-term effects? If so, at what time horizo...

Lest silence be taken for assent, or worse, agreement, I'll just state for the record that Marjorie Taylor-Green's statement comparing the yellow stars Jews were required to wear in Nazi Germany to various current mask wearing requirements in the US is ignorant and offensive.

Boys, here is the problem with your flower gifting: if you do it too frequently (say, more than once every decade), the recipient begins to expect the act more frequently. Better to gift something practical, like sex toys.

I've stayed out of this pissing contest for numerous reasons, but I think Mayhem's questions are legit and deserve answers.

I don't want the government pushing anything, or anyone.

There is definitely an irony in the fact that the people who most vocally want a "return to normal" (i.e. full re-opening) are also the people most resistant to doing the one thing that will get us there quickly: vaccinations

Stop making sense!

My Rust Bucket DVD arrived yesterday. It's rugged which is fine for the Horse. I think it solves the "where's Cowgirl" question. During the song a warning comes up that says "NYA under construction" & the sound changes some. I'm guessing there was a problem on the soundboard tape during that song &...
