    Yeah today there is. 10 years ago though?

    Being super strict about lockdowns and masks is not a winning strategy anymore. I'm sure people like Polis understand this.

    I had to pay $43 for the Bob's Burgers Monopoly set. Expensive! But worth it!

    Death by snu snu?

    Growing up, I had some Mexican immigrant neighbors. To this day, the mother doesn't speak English, but the father can speak enough English to be good acquaintances with my dad. Their children though - all born in America, are all incredibly successful. The youngest is an investment banker (or something like that), and are fully integrated into American culture, while still maintaining the the connections to their heritage.

    It took Ford over a month to build the vehicle I ordered, a process that would normally take around 2 days. Chip shortages are affecting almost every sector of the economy.

    Which tribe has ownership of North America? They fought bloody wars all the time - there wasn't some unified native culture over here.

    Is there anything inherently wrong with insisting that immigrants assimilate to the prevailing culture of the country they moved to?

    NGL, as much of a dweeb Musk is, his companies have had a huge impact on their respective industries. I really doubt the likes of GM, Ford, and other big automakers would be working on electrifying their cars if it wasn't for Tesla dominating that market right now. Same with reusable rockets. It was only a few years ago that every rocket company besides SpaceX thought reusability was stupid - now nearly every rocket company (established and startup alike), as well as national space programs, are trying to copy what SpaceX is doing. "If Musk didn't do it, someone else would have" Maybe. But they didn't.

    How common are basements and cellars in this part of the country?

    There is a feedback loop at play here. Just like when you tell your teenage child they can't wear something because it is inappropriate...Well now they are just going to wear it even harder and more often, and make sure you know they are doing it as a middle finger to you! Liberals, it's your fault gun culture is what it is.

    Low carb life means IDGAF about cereal.

    Moderna is not the Dollar Tree vaccine so you made a wise choice!

    California has nearly the same gun murder rate as Arizona - which is famous for having a bare minimum of gun laws. You don't even need a license to carry concealed in Arizona. Would California have a lower murder rate if their gun laws were even stricter? I don't know. But I don't think their current gun laws are actually effective at curbing gun violence. Credit where credit is due though - I do think California's 10 day waiting period likely does help prevent a nominal number of suicides. But if you already own one or more guns and have suicidal ideations, this law is probably meaningless.

    Devin Nunes to resign from Congress to take the CEO position at Trump's new media company:

    Which stocks?

    I'm not sure how often accidents happen when minors are properly supervised while firing guns, but I'd imagine the rate is pretty low. Of course, when minors are left unsupervised and around guns, then accidents are more likely to happen.

    But here we are, ITT, making fun of the way he looks!

    My wife got her antibody levels checked this week and we got the results - 2400 u/ml. For reference, I had 750 u/ml, and our daughter had 150 u/ml. I think this all makes sense, given our differences: My wife was both vaccinated with J&J in April, and subsequently got COVID in June. I got both Moderna shots in March, and never got COVID when my wife and daughter got infected. My daughter was unvaccinated when she contracted COVID in June, and she beat it in a matter of days. With my booster, hopefully I get quite a few more antibodies built up in my system as Omicron starts to become prevalent. But I guess we'll see just how effective current immunity is against this new variant.

    You know, maybe if we ridicule and make fun of school shooters and those that are accessories to the actions of the shooter, we might see a reduction in these types of incidents. Labeling all shooters as "chuds", "smoothbrains", or some other type of derogative might be beneficial in the long run.

    CNN is saying that the parents withdrew $4000 from an ATM and have turned off their phones.
  24. mclumber1
    Fuck these parents. They need to be locked up for this. Inexcusable.

    Me right now, 24 hours after my booster: Am I saying I have a headache, or that my 5G reception is excellent? You be the judge.
