God, I miss that show.

Hopefully the new school design never has to be put to the test.

I hear you. The syntax is wonky and lacks parallelism.

Judaism refers solely to the religious aspect of “being Jewish.”

Sure, guy.

Tu quoque fallacy.

“He has developed a brand that is marketable and he needs to protect that brand.”

It’s an inversion of the anti-Semitic canard of dual-loyalty (i.e., the idea that Jews are more loyal to Israel than their own countries).

Just read--thanks. Yeah, I remember reading a lot about illegally funneled Russian oligarch money into the NRA. Just wasn’t sure if there were specific numbers ($$) bandied about, and if there was any hard evidence.

Historically, Baltimore has the best pro wrestling fans in the entire country.

The last portion of the article in the link I posted discusses this:

I presume Russia funneled a shit-ton of money illegally into the NRA, which then went directly toward Trump.

Trump knows where his bread is buttered. The NRA spent in excess of $30 million on Trump’s campaign in 2016. Also, Trump needs those gun-rights voters and he can’t risk alienating them by legislating gun control. It’s that simple: money and votes. Trump is about self-preservation and self-enrichment.

Roaming Rooster in NE DC is the best fried chicken sandwich I’ve ever had.

When Trump cops to something awful he did/said, I tend to believe it, provided his documented, lengthy personal history of doing/saying awful shit.

Ha, yep.

Not a dumb question at all. There’s a helmet called VICIS ZERO1 that is modeled sort of that way. It gives on impact rather staying rigid, in an effort to reduce the brain being sloshed around inside the skull during collisions. There’s video footage of the helmet in use in the link below:

So true. I do remember being fanatical about basically all the equipment/padding during football. Removing kneepads, finding thin thigh pads (or removing them altogether as well), no cup/jock strap, etc.

Does anyone know approximately how many times Trump flew on Epstein’s plane? I know the flight logs reflect at least one time he flew aboard the plane, but don’t know if there were confirmed subsequent flights. Any links/info much appreciated.

Yikes. Do you have a link for that?
