Thank goodness someone else noticed this. If the internet is good for one thing, it’s revealing who actually knows what common idioms are, and not just what they sound like.

Having an awesome beer named after him? Bannonbrau sounds like it would suck, though.

I do a 1.5 mile commute on my bike here at the northern edge of Austin, year ‘round, in business casual clothes. A lack of infrastructure sounds like the biggest obstacle in your case, though; my commute crosses major bike-hostile roads, but has dedicated lanes most of the way now.

This is true of Americans in general, if not explicitly, then by our silence in the face of it being done in our name during even the most broadly-supported wars. I doubt Clinton voters are any more enthusiastic about it than Trump voters, although they’re almost certainly more aware of it.

I am frankly astonished that the adticle didn’t mention the pareidolia as a feature.

Democrat 1940s =/= Democrat 2010s, because over time time party affiliation has noting to do with policy. Reactionary xenophobe 1940s == Reactionary xenophobe 2010s, because humanity’s worst impulses are timeless.

One that requires rounds to be identifiable and traceable back to the purchaser. That would likely reduce the incidence of gleeful, aimless discharge without concern for where the projectile ends up.

You gotta normalize by population: is ranch consumption actually higher per capita in urban census tracts, or are there just more folks there to eat ranch?

This is the exact article I wanted to read, written by the exact person I’d have write it. These are pretty much my very thoughts as I watched the movie. Kudos, Torch.

I, a white guy, listen to this song each year, in addition to versions by several other artists. However, I must credit my wife - a back lady - for bringing it to our Christmas music collection, and so I may not be a representative data point for that reason. The nature of the hand-shaking mentioned in the lyrics has…

If only! Perhaps this is the reason many use zipties instead of traditional cuffs.

Also, can I get re-un-greyed?

This is pretty much my platonic ideal pickup: a city-scale bike/home improvement/antique furniture moving tool with no pretenses of towing the Earth or hauling a quarry.

I’d say that “an episode that led to” is accurate. If it said “which was the given reason for,” you’d be on firmer ground.

With all the measures this administration has taken to make federal workers’ working conditions and compensation better and fairer as a way of setting an example for the private sector, this and the nonsense with the California National Guard enlistment bonuses seem especially strange and unjust.

Sidewalks are for feet; bikes are wheeled vehicles that belong on the road. I suggest you get used to it and stop pitching an entitled hissy fit. Also: don’t swerve around people on bike. Pass them just as you would if they were driving a motorcycle, car, pickup truck, or an 18-wheeler. As road users, they are…

One correction: The cast iron dome is painted, but the Texas pink granite that comprises most of the exterior is really quite pink, flecked with black mica and clear quartz.
