That exact argument also applies to Delta. The company will always seek to get the best deal possible out of it’s employees, trying to get the most out of them while paying the least. They LIKE the fact that they are an immortal entity with billions to spend on the process while negotiating with individual employees…

Jack Dorsey looks like Tyrion Lannister

Does anybody else see hints of the Herkimer Battle Jitney in there?

For a gas grill, any Weber Genesis. I have had one for longer than I can remember. Pushing 20 years maybe on the same grill. They are essentially immortal since you can order all of the significant parts from Weber and they are easy to fix. I have replaced the burner, crossover tube, regulator, and igniter. It is…

Alexander was interviewed on WNYC last week. I heard the piece and it reeked of bullshit. Now we know why. Even a casual listener could tell that critical information was being withheld.

At least Nixon and Reagan tried to hide it! They recognized that what they were doing was beyond the pale. And the Bush WKD lie? No fan of Bush but I think he believed it at first.

Essentially you are saying that *your* childhood fashion icon will last forever, while that filthy plumber’s childhood fashion icon is for losers.

While i find it satisfying to catch Trumplodytes showing their true colors, and the tweet in question is chock full of typical MAGA race-baiting, the 88 reference is just a bit too InfoWars-hysterical for me.

Genius at math does not gurantee that you are not a halfwit in other fields. His idea of how to organize a civilization was about the kevel of a 9th grader with Aspergers. 

The weird thing is that the Hawks are among those who oppose the draft and universal service, because that makes it *harder* to go to war. When everyone’s kids might be sent, suddenly a lot of people are less eager to invade.

Regarding professionalism and a SCIF: I think the most unprofessional thing to do is for an entire BUILDING full of people to go home because of a massive blizzard, but neglect the tell they (bare minimal) staff in the SCIF, leaving them to emerge hours later into a zombie-apocalypse empty building with no carpool to…

Bet he is using some equipment from a company that does not sponsor him.  Probably not afraid of any audio engineering secret sauce; just making sure he gets paid for any public endorsement.

If they die in a shooting, that’s Good d’s Will /s

Shooting in a place where there are dozens of “good guys with guns” and still the shooter kills; crickets.

I pre-ordered this book so long ago I can’t recall... maybe TWO YEARS ago. I figured it was like so many failed kickstarters. I hope they haven’t forgotten about me!

I am a motorcyclist who rides a Ducati (my fourth Ducati). I also ride other makes so I have lots of seat time for comparison. The Desmo valve actuation is not something you can notice as a rider. And yet we Ducatisti love it and defend it. It is more of a religious thing; you know it’s there (you have service bills…

I hope she wins, and I applaud her honesty. But she is running in NY and that Palestine comment was suicide.

Motorcyclist here. The Harley-Davidson tribe is loyal to the concept of American motorcycles, not the company. In fact, back when H-D resurrected itself with improved products, the zealots got pissed and created the “FTF” (F**ck The Factory) because they were catering to the unanointed. 

I hate being an apologist, but in my only recent experience with an ER, I took my wife in on a Saturday night for a situation that turned out to have a 50-50 chance of survival. As doctors freaked out over my wife’s condition, there was also a (white) patient raising a huge ruckus, screaming and kicking things. I…

...and then there is the problem of Amazon soliciting the review before the product has even arrived at my doorstep.
