Is it time to push the panic button in Boston? It certainly is in Houston. The Astros suck. Looks like LIV Golf will limp along for a while longer. I can’t see it lasting more than a couple more months. And across the pond, the UCL semifinals are set after an amazing match in Munich and a complete snoozer in London. Arsenal will play Atletico and Bayern will play PSG. I assume the viewership for the latter will be much higher than of the former. And that’s about it for sports.
I’m now certain this woman is a moron. Does she not think the SC is doing their job in making these rulings just as they’ve done for centuries? Or does she just not like their decisions? Either way, she’s way out of line and if Roberts had a spine he’d call her on the carpet and explain things to her in a way that is publicly embarrassing.
She can say whatever she wants. That doesn’t necessarily make it so. She has constant access to all kinds of attorneys. And yet she never sought to get her status changed? This sob story stinks like yesterday’s garbage.
Why doesn’t he just sell some paintings? Oh, that’s right. They’re no longer needed as a money laundering technique.

Ahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! I approve of this.
This is shameful. A lawyer vigorously working in his client’s interests is a job requirement, not something that should be punished.
Europoors will not understand this. They think everything should be free all the time. Also, they have no idea what “free” means.
Well…BYE! Maybe next time try just educating kids rather than indoctrinating them. They can get both those things at a bunch of other schools.

“The cost of parking at stadiums is also very high, with a space at the MetLife costing $225 (£166). Foxborough is priced at $175 (£129) for one car.”
!!!!!!
I find it strange that people willingly pay these amounts in order to suffer through watching sportsball from an uncomfortable seat with a poor vantage point.
“Suffer through watching sportsball” would have been sufficient.
I wonder if they cherry-picked the lots right next to the stadium or of those are at the lots a bit further away. I know baseball is different but i can park 3 blocks from the stadium in Houston for $25.
I liked the old Foxboro stadium so much better. In the 70s, my Dad would pay $10 to park on the front lawn of some working guy’s house along Route 1.
I liked the old Foxboro stadium so much better
That’s some “Times Square was so much better before they cleaned it up” bullshit. Old Foxboro was a falling-down piece of shit.
Those aluminum bench seats sucked – the coldest I have ever been may have been a MNF game there, with those seats utterly sucking any trace of warmth out of you.
Sure – but for a 10-year-old kid that was the fun. Parking in some dude’s yard, getting frisked at the gate (for booze, not weapons). There was a river of booze flowing out of the dumpster the guards were tossing confiscated bottles. The fans bitching about the team, the stadium, the cold… in the most hilarious ways possible. It was awesome.
Surge pricing is wicked when Uber does it but virtuous when the state does it.
Well, one is an evil corporation, the other a benevolent ruler.
I have to wonder if the train fare still covers the actual costs. Should probably be these prices all the time to cover operating costs.
Any public transit that covers costs is a rare creature.
Asian agencies generally cover costs because they treat it like a business instead of welfare as is done in the US.
Yes. Agreed.
Trump’s cruelty cannot be overstated enough – it is the media’s responsibility to ensure the public doesn’t forget.

Ladies, you don’t need no man.
Translation from Idiot: Once you remove these other two things, that strongly corelate with father absence, and that also have a negative impact, the negative impact of father absence is smaller, but still significant. Or in other words having a present father is a necessary but not sufficient factor in successful child rearing.
Then don’t expect child support.
Once you subtract out what men bring to a household, it turns out there’s not much advantage to it.
This is the message I took. Discount what fathers bring to a home, and suddenly fathers aren’t all that necessary.
Ladies, the state will be your man.

That’s not how the judiciary does things. Judges are reprimanded privately.
Cancel her janitorial services. Make her make her clerks empty her trash (and then in a decade write a scathing tell-all about how she mistreated her clerks). Don’t they already have a rule about the junior justice bringing the donuts or something?
She apparently feels free to criticize the Court publicly, so I don’t see how she could complain about the Chief Justice criticizing her publicly.
Maybe at the next recess she can be given a vacation to the next area we plan on bombing.
See, here’s the part that chaps me. I’m sick of these customs being respected to “honor the position”.
Fuck that. You work for us. The only privileges you should enjoy are those directly related to doing the job we asked you to do. Beyond that, expect nothing more, not even respect.
It is pretty traditional that respect goes with the role, of course with an expectation of decorum on the part of the role-holder. It’s a bad tradition though – respect should always be earned, never given.
100% agreement with Neph on this.
We need to start emphasizing the ‘servant’ part of ‘public servant’.
It’s a bad tradition though – respect should always be earned, never given.
In theory, somebody who made it into that role has shown themselves to be worthy of the respect by earning it in some way (usually via lower court jurisprudence). Whether that ever existed in reality, i dont know. Its certainly not real now.
If the officholder does not treat the office with respect, the officeholder forfeits any respect due the office being applied to themselves. Their comportment and performance are part of that.

Yeah 🤣. I’m happy with the deal. Need lots of practice before I can do anything practical with it.

I use ammoseek.com to shop for deals. It bots up some pretty sketchy sellers, though, so be careful.
I second ammoseek and checking on the seller before giving out credit card information.
I like Graf and Son, as they have a flat shipping fee of $12.
Awesome. Congrats!
It is a good deal.
“The drink known as egg coffee, which originates from Vietnam, is made by blending egg yolks with sugar and condensed milk.

Pilots’ animal noises in the cockpit have FAA listening
Dogs and cats flying together. Mass hysteria.
By law the cat and dog noises have to be in English, so “miaow” or “nyan” would be a violation.
English is required for controller/pilot communications for international flights. The local language may be spoken for domestic flights. So English is not always required in the flight deck.
I can only imagine the animal noises coming from the people who maintain the ATC equipment….
Squeal like a piggie?
When I was in the Marines, one of the pieces of navigational gear we were trained on had two handsets wired to it. One handset went to the local repair van, the other to the tower.
If you lifted a handset, it run the other one. The quirk was if you lifted the one in the tower first, everything would be transmitted out as a radio signal by the gear. If you lifted the one in the van it was just a local call between the two and private (or it was the other way around, it was a long time ago).
When we were being trained, the instructors stressed that quirk and told us that a couple young lance coolies had been fucking around on it and accidentally picked up the wrong side first and transmitted themselves farting into the handset and calling each other creative names. According to the story, the FAA was not amused and opened an investigation into what happened. They avoided any criminal charges from the FAA, but did lose a stripe because they embarrassed the Corps.
How can you embarass the corps? It’s full of marines. All I’ve ever heard of them is them doing dumb shit like that. So that’s on par with the corps’ reputation.
I’d bet that they were secretly communicating, somebody call in Dr. Dolittle.
Furry convention in town?
Guard cats have been a thing for quite a while. Looks like the media finally found discovered it. Those pilots definitely broke protocol. Meowing is supposed to be done on the guard frequency, and done enroute because one is bored, not in a terminal area.
This is a normal problem on the emergency frequency. Airlines (and it is also recommended for standard pilots) tune one radio to 121.5 the emergency channel.
I will do this if I am around a Flight restriction, but you won’t go an hour without some funny guy (always seems to be male) that goes “meow” on frequency. If it happens more than once I will just turn off that radio.
This is not new:
https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/87942/why-and-when-did-people-start-meowing-on-guard-frequency
I learned something new today.
I’m not understanding the economics behind septupling the usual train fare. Seems like actual “gouging” to me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
lol It’s NJ Transit, BBC. Do better.
As I said above, price gouging suddenly, magically becomes virtuous when the proceeds go to the state.
Except the governess is bitching about it here.
Gouging or removing the normal subsidies? The local VRE targets 50% fare recovery of operation costs but usually falls short.
True. But 7x? I think the normal fare recovery is likely better than 1/7.
Pats train is $20, FIFA will be $80. OTOH, they’re running 14 trains for the FIFA matches, which is way more than they do for the Pats (I think it’s just one train before and one after the game), so I could see more overhead adding to the cost.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I want nothing to do with that shitshow, regardless. The France/Brazil friendly was a traffic nightmare and the real games will be no better.
https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/fifa-world-cup-traffic-bathroom-foxboro-yards-fans/
Yikes There are some extremely low recovery rates. It looks like the VRE is at ~22%
Yeah, especially in the US because it’s seen as a poor-people thing so it’s NOT FAIR to charge anything close to the real cost.
Also it’s not fair to prosecute fare theft because racist.
Public transit is a huge subsidized mess.
Busses are the closest to break even and even they are several times the per passenger mile cost of owning a car.
Trains are one of the worst.

XCOM2 – Some enemies can mind control your dudes. When mind-controlled, you can target them like any other enemy unit. If you take out the controlling unit, you get your dude back.
Since XCOM2 has permadeath and even injury has negative consequences, in what situation would it be beneficial to shoot your own mind-controlled dude?
A pistol will do little damage, and snap the mind controlled person out of it. It would depend on the turn order and layout when it’s beneficial to do that instead of going after the controlling unit, which can (and will) retreat back into shadows.
My sharpshooters are actually specced to put a lot of hurt out with pistols.
But it’s good to know that damage would end the effect. I’ve just wrecked the controller so far, since they haven’t yet managed to pull it off and run away.
You have one bullet left and there is a grizzly bear attacking you.
Way to avoid the question.
And you’re not bringing enough ammo if you can’t convince the grizzy to go somewhere else with n-1 bullets.

““Hunger Games” star Elizabeth Banks was left dumbfounded that 53 percent of white women voted for former President Donald Trump in the 2024 election, while hoping more would become “revolutionaries” mimicking her dystopian character.
The 52-year-old actress invoked her glammed-up on-screen role of “Effie Trinket” as the ideal persona for fighting fascism, while comparing Trump to the child-murdering totalitarian regime from the novels and movie franchise.
“Effie is the model, guys. I don’t understand the 53% of white ladies that didn’t vote for Kamala. What were you thinking?” Banks said on Bustle’s “One Nightstand” podcast.”

Meh. Dude with poor self-control and/or social awareness is a red flag for all sorts of things, including rape.
Not saying he’s innocent, and definitely not saying he isn’t an asshole, but not being a good drinker isn’t a red flag for rape.
Disagree. Not interested in playing duelling anecdotes though.
Bad drinkers are common. Rapists are rare.
Which is why “red flag” is an indication to suspect things you wouldn’t otherwise be on the alert for.
Other than the tiny fraction of booga-booga rapists who are getting off on the sadism, most rape/sexual assault is from dudes not controlling themselves and or misreading social cues.
“The high-powered attorney representing one of the women accusing Eric Swalwell of sex crimes has fired back at his lawyer for claiming “regret is not rape.”

The orders suffer from an additional problem, she said, a failure to acknowledge that real people are involved, making them “seem oblivious and thus ring hollow.”
She also pushed back on the court’s assessment that preventing the president from putting his policy in place also is a harm that often outweighs what the challengers to a policy might face.
Did she push her lower lip out and bang her spoon on her high chair as she said that?
“There is value in avoiding having the court continually touching the third rail of every divisive policy issue in American life,” Jackson said.
?
“Unless they touch it the right way”, she continued.
Not once did she ever mention if she determines her decisions on the whether it’s constitutional or not. Increasing freedom and liberty are probably the last things on her mind but then again, she represents the current Left’s way of thinking.
My god she is an idiot.
Has she considered why every policy issue in American life these days is “divisive”? Maybe the decades of radical, unconstitutional law? That it is your job to rectify??
Or consider that the Nazgul’s job is to render judgments on divisive issues?
I am sure there already is somewhere in the US gov an administrative judge spouting off on the great legal question of our time- “Are puppies and kittens cute?”

Meanwhile I can’t seem to explain to my wife in a situation like this you don’t:
1 Pull behind the truck.
2 Determine that your desired speed is greater than the truck’s speed.
3 Match speeds with the truck.
4 Finally begin the process of checking if you may safely pass.
5 Pass the truck.
Heh.
In the documentaries I’ve seen, they always smack it after you get the strap on on.
after you get the strap on on
I bet his speedometer was pegged.
LOL. Take a bow, Jimbo.
What could possibly go wrong?
Watching that video I was reminded of the day I watched a guy towing a car drive past the my older brother’s friend’s shop. The guy was using bungee cords as tow straps. The group of us standing in front of the shop just shook our heads.
Twice in my life, I’ve felt guilty after selling some crap on Craig’s List because I was pretty sure the buyers were going to kill people on the way home.
Once was a server rack and a bunch of old servers. The kid and his mom showed up in a sedan with no straps. They were just going to tie the server rack to the roof with some old rope. I did make them go to a nearby hardware store to buy some racheting straps, but I was still pretty sure that they were going to kill someone on the way home.
The other time was when a couple old hippies bought a bunch of the wood from my old deck and kept piling it on top of their Scooby Doo van. They at least had decent straps, but it was so much that I was pretty sure it would be spilled at some point on the way home. They at least asked me for some recommendations of back roads to Minneapolis.
Better than the several
Times I have seen kids on mattraces on tops of cars when I lived in the south.
They were obviously matt racing.

I just like how the truck accelerates when the big air brake is removed.
This is perfect GOP stunt. I 100% agree with the proposition that kids need intact families and that the nuclear family is a good thing. But they just had to stick that God bs into their PR didn’t they?
I’m not a Christian. I’m not an Atheist (they have to many purity tests for my taste).
Since I’ve been a kid (Reagan era), the GOP has always managed to muddy the waters by insisting on adding God talk to their appeals. I’m very sympathetic to most conservative issues, but man is it alienating to always be told that those issues are inspired by God.
Yeah, perfect “a pox on both of them”.
They couldn’t just stop the Pride nonsense. They had to shove this in people’s faces.
Watch Fox News for more than 20 minutes or so and you get the same. They are going all-in with the faith beat.
The GOP has done that since its inception.
The first to party planks were against the twin evils of slavery and polygamy.
Thomas Jefferson hardest hit.
Very much this.
Even people who are seriously religious, likely find it disconcerting when politicians start talking about what God favors, and for good reason.
As an aside – although I’m an atheist, that term carries so much baggage nowadays that I’ve started using ‘nonbeliever’ instead.
lol.
I also call myself a nonbeliever.
Like I said above, Atheists have too many purity tests for my taste. They are the OG “Follow the SCIENCE!” fanatics.
“I’m not a Christian.”
Isn’t that a job requirement?
Bipartisan compromise
Now, the two Democrats have reached a mutually beneficial compromise through a pied-à-terre tax proposal aimed at ultrawealthy second-home owners. The mayor, a democratic socialist, can claim a political victory of having moved the needle on a wealth tax, while the governor, a moderate who has opposed taxing the rich, can seek to end a contentious budget battle during a re-election year.
The deal appears to have cooled rising tensions between two elected officials who need one another.
“From her standpoint, she has stayed firm to what she has said,” said Jay Jacobs, the state Democratic Party chair. “The mayor, for his part, needs more money to fill his budget gap. This provides a good amount. Everybody ought to end up happy on this.”
Everybody but the people having their pockets picked, and who gives a shit hat they think?
She’s also pushing a NYS version of the FACE act. I guess the antisemitism is getting to bre too much for some of her donors.
Fuck you, cut spending.
This gets him 1/10 of the way to covering the current year’s budget deficit. Where is the other 4.5 billion going to come from, geniuses?
Hochul is a moderate?
By the standards of current-year Democrats and especially New York State Democrats, yes.
She has been hesitant to allow raising NYC taxes for Zoh, for example.
That statement got a “WTF?” out of me as well.
The mayor and his allies were quick to take a victory lap on Wednesday, but Mamdani also credited Hochul.
“Thanks to the support of Governor Hochul, we are one step closer to balancing our budget by taxing the ultra-wealthy and global elites with a pied-à-terre tax — the first of its kind in our state,” Mamdani said in a statement. “Alongside the governor, our administration is fighting every day to make sure we address this fiscal deficit fairly, where the wealthy contribute what they owe and our budget reflects our commitment to the working New Yorkers being priced out of our city.”
Fuck you. Cut spending.
pied-à-terre? Is that French for sodomy?

But how far the deal goes in satisfying the left may depend on other unresolved issues in the budget negotiations. Progressives have objected to Hochul’s proposal to delay implementing a landmark climate law and are urging her and the Legislature to provide more funding for affordable housing and pass legislation that provides greater protections for undocumented immigrants.
“If you look at the breadth of reactions, I don’t think this stops anyone from demanding higher taxes on the rich,” said Jasmine Gripper, director of the Working Families Party. “No one is like ‘Thank you, you can stop now.’ Everyone is looking to push for more.”
Eat the rich.
Or burn them for fuel. Soylent green new deal.
And when all the rich people move to TN or TX, then what?
Federal bailout!
