  1. Sounds like the admin is saying that something our resident maga-fanboy thought was a great idea is now a horrible idea. Can’t wait for the spin on that. but balls are in short supply
  2. Or they could do what RBG didn't and retire within the next 18 months so that Trump and this Senate can confirm their successor.
  3. DEI hire
  4. I'm still not sold on AI being better for important tasks. I can see the value for things like creating low risk boiler plate thing. But if it's important to get a right answer then don't use AI. Maybe it's just in the applications I see. I see all these ads for things a friend of mine in the HR industry called "productivity porn". Ways to "optimize" your tasks and emails and meetings.... **** all of that. People spend more time trying to figure out how to "automate" something just to show they did it, when you could just do it. I have some tasks that I do that are remedial but I will also find the 5% that is wrong and its' important I find those things. I'd rather spend the 20 minues doing that instead of automating and letting the 5% slip thru until someone notices it. It's great until it doesn't work then everybody is scrambling trying to figure out what went wrong and that's time wasted because nobody knows the systems well enough because they used AI to get rid of the experts. There's a difference between AI and programming.
  5. "too many Mexicans" guy is happy though.... (if he's still alive...)
  6. that's what these old ladies tried to do to me at a church blackjack tent in 2012 because I split my 10's. I can still hear their gravely smoke filled voice "You don't split two tens". It's for a church. I'm not betting my social security check.
  7. I give most of them a pass because I doubt they are out there absorbing all of this and researching issues, etc. These are people who have been living basball since their middle school years. During a season it's all they do and if they played in travel leagues as kids then their summers and weekends were taken up.
  8. It's certainly not something I expect from someone who likes to flaunt their 'religion'. Attitudes like that represent the worst in people and are in direct violation of Christian values.
  9. Do you happen to work with Indians? “Do the needful” is a common thing I hear from them.
  10. This has been a lot better than I expected.
  11. Anybody who supports this is an idiot. But it just falls in line with their casual racism and bigotry. The polite thing to say would be that they are ignorant. But that’s too kind. That’s the absence of the knowledge. No… in this case it’s just stupidity. These are the people who ate dirt as kids for fun and burned insects and spied on their sisters when they got dressed. When they walk by you can smell the **** on them because they think using toilet paper is “woke”.
  12. If I got that I would be hitting “report phish”. I suspect that address will be getting a lot of emails over the next few days.
  13. Especially considering the circumstances. Who are we at war with? This was all about “fire the blacks and minorities”. DEI and Woke are just their buzzwords.
  14. Didn’t town Halls lead to the 2010 gains by the GOP in congress? Or was that before?
  15. just go ahead and say the N word. We all know that’s what is meant.
  16. Anti military huh?
  17. Who do you think you are “owning”?
  18. I saw it suggested somewhere that Tony Dalton should star in a Joker movie or series but instead of the dark version they make it similar to Cesar Romero’s portrayal on the Batman TV show.
  19. I’ve heard that phone calls are effective. My people are all democrats.
  20. The Kettlemans. She was kind of hot. Let’s see what they are up to. I’m sure when they heard Saul was gone they continued on their crooked ways. She’s like Kim. She needs the action. the actors went a long way to making the characters in that universe. Yeah if would be fun to see young hector and Don Eladio. But Mark Margolis is dead and Stephen Bauer is too old.
  21. I've always had this feeling that if Larry Flynt had still been alive he'd have squashed Trump before 2016.
  22. It worked for me on the player page but not on the team results page. Basically I was trying to compare the Tigers/Twins results from 2009 to 2024. In both cases I recall dramatic wins/losses by both teams, although in the Tigers case in 2009 it wasn't so bad, they played slightly worse than usual but the Twins skyrocketed.
  23. We saw him at the Fox last September. That routine is now on Netflix. His revelations about his recovery and the intervention was great.
  24. I was having similar thoughts when ESPN was trying to force feed this into that narrative, playing Kurt Russell's Brooks speech, having Mike Eurizione narrate... of course if the US plays Russia today we know who the President is rooting for.
