It’s RvW. If not now, when? When the stakes are sufficiently low nobody cares enough about the outcome to get in a tizzy over it?

Which will never happen unless the Democrats start actually fighting for The People.... which means we’ll never get a 60 vote Senate and middle of the road Democrats like Manchin and Sinema will never be replaced, which means we’ll never get legislation codifying abortion.  Might as well just give up completely then I

Who’s to say if another Democrat had been running in 2020, there wouldn’t be more Democrats in the Senate?  I don’t think Biden had long enough coattails to pull off the Senate.  Everyone was so focused on Trump they forgot how effective Mitch can be in the minority.  

Democrats need to stop failing in advance. We have checks and balances for a reason. Let the Executive Branch act and then let the Judicial do what’s it’s going to do. That’s how the system is designed to work. Quitting before you start doesn’t help in the least. You can’t only go after those things that are a

It’s past time the Supreme Court operate out in the open. They’re paid by the People for the People. The People deserve to know how things operate for any matters not deemed protected by national security. Full stop. That’s just too damn bad if that makes life uncomfortable for the SC Justices. They are welcome to

Yeah, those little states like NY, NJ, and CA.... 

THREE???!?!?!?!?!???  Sweet jesus!  I think I’d develop a drinking problem after that :)  You are a good person and in need of a special thing from those three.

It depends on the state.  Some states it’s legal to pass on the right.  

Zipper merge is the most useful demonstration of where science fails to understand society. Mathematically zipper mergers are 100% superior to all others 100% of the time. They are undeniably the single most efficient way to merge two streams of traffic. Period. Full stop (well, not ‘stop’, but you know what I mean).

Yeah, but if you did or didn’t get it that week, you weren’t lost. There wasn’t a much of a ‘bigger’ story such that if you missed a plot point from 4 episodes ago, you were utterly lost in an episodes plot and story. There were gags for amusement. Imagine watching the 4th episode of season 1 of GOT then blowing it

Thanks!  I was shooting for zero wrongs and it’s always nice to hear I made my mark perfectly!

“Minor flash in the pan”? It was the dominant mode of how audiences connected with media for almost seventy years. You watched that week’s episode of whatever and then talked about it the next day at school/at work.

It’s soooo annoying! “That episode was 3 weeks ago and you haven’t caught up already???” No. No I have not.  TV isn’t the only thing in my life.  There’s other stuff that takes some precedence.  And I’m not in a Star Trek-y mood right now for the same reason you’re sometimes not in the mood for, say, hot dogs.  These

If you wait until they’re all released, you miss out on the cultural conversation too.

I began to notice that it became harder and harder to have conversations with my friends about the shows we liked, because we were rarely caught up through the same episode.

Yeah, but it also isn’t fun to avoid spoilers and discussions for weeks on end because you want to sit and enjoy the show in a nice weekend.  Why not drop it and let those who want to watch it over a month or two have at it?  The rest of us can watch it when we watch it.  Personally, I don’t see the point of episodic

Everyone forgets that pretty much everything you do driving the actual car gets translated into 4 patches of rubber all of about 1 square foot each. Acceleration, braking, and turning - if your tires aren’t up to it, you’ll fail. Doesn’t matter how many horsepower you have or how big your brakes are or if your

Yeah, I left the ‘windows down’ out of my list because I don’t think it’s necessary and it creates a lot of problems.  Like if your windows roll down, what’s to stop your pet from running away?  Or people just stealing stuff from your car, including your child or pet?

The good news is we have an official proclamation now at how soon you’re allowed to “politicize” a shooting... 10 days.  The Governor of Florida decided it by action.   

Yeah, I thought that’s weird too.  Start with HVAC and notify the owners via whatever means necessary. The lights flashing/horn thing if the internal temp in the vehicle doesn’t drop quick enough (however that’s determined).  Finally, first responders and all that stuff.
