The collection of D&D miniatures is always a panty dropper.

One of the things the right absolutely does not want to be reminded of is which administration imposed COVID restrictions on them, or who Dr. Fauci worked for at that time.
Asha RangappaI’m trying to reconcile Trump still owning Operation Warp Speed as a victory (which it was) with GOP claiming the vaccine killed millions of people. Isn’t the person to blame, then, Trump, not Fauci??
Do data centers really create that many jobs? I've been told in the past that big data centers have like two people on staff and that's all that is needed unless something goes really wrong and they are reracking equipment.
Philip BumpAs I've said before: What high-paying long-term jobs do they pretend exist here? A data center isn't a place where execs come and do Big Deals. Go to the server room at your workplace; are there lots of rich people in there spending money?
I wish we could put to bed the notion that any of these companies are socially progressive and benevolent as opposed to monied interests. For a corporation this patronage network is actually easy and straight forward for them.

PhDs are desperate to slap a political theory on this administration because the current style of politics causes their life's work to go up in smoke.
E JonesI reject entirely the assertion that this Administration or Trump himself is operating under a strategy underpinned by Madman Theory Few FP-tasked advisers in this admin are IR-studied, & I don’t think there’s a shred of evidence for a Nixonian-like approach. His “strategy” is merely reactive chaos
I'm about halfway through writing the sequel, which sees Lopez on a recce mission deep behind enemy lines inside Russia. Squaring off with the SSO and Alpha in this one. www.amazon.com/Most-Dangero...
I guess I'm one of the few people who thought this movie was boring as hell and that infantilizing the alien and making it like a pet dog was some low brow Disney shit.
Devon DympsyFinally got around to watching "Project Hail Mary" this afternoon... None of you warned me that I would tear up over a lump of rock!!
America just feels like a grift these days. How are we supposed to maintain a country when we're told the whole of our society is simply a marketplace for you to get rich or die trying? www.404media.co/clapping-is-...

As the proud wife of an Army Ranger (retired), I loved all the "inside baseball" references!

There is a whole sub-genre of articles in publications about the many places in which men should not be talking to women (work, the gym, the coffee shop). I saw one recently about older men striking up friendly conversation with age appropriate women in the grocery store and the author was outraged.
