I’m sorry. I hope your treatment is going well.

They need to do it soon, the AZ legislative session is almost over.

Pretty sure NIMBY and Libertarian are usually the same thing (usually some variant of “get off my lawn and let me enjoy my societal privileges while wailing against the very system that gives me said privileges”?) 

I mean yeah, you can’t bring your Kindle and read it when you’re part of a group, that’s just weird, but people read in bars all the time! I guess it depends on the bar though. A super loud, busy place with lots of large groups...maybe it’s still weird. A classy wine bar or a craft brewery during slow hours? See it…

“Space Cowboy” is such a beautiful song; I may have listened to it like 392847283497 times already

Perfectly said.

What’s the weather like up there on that high horse?

Duh.

I feel like these anti-NYE sentiments are always NYC-centric, no? NYE isn’t so bad when it’s not 15 degrees out, you don’t have to cab anywhere, and it’s only regular busy, not “millions of annoying tourists flooding the street” busy.

Nope. Democrats are unlikely to capture the Senate in 2018, as they are defending 25 seats compared to the GOP’s 8. However, they have a pretty good chance of taking back the House.

I don’t even think she would characterize herself as a good singer. But Exile in Guyville is more about the mood and the lyrics than anything else.

The latter. You can deduct interest on a mortgage up to $500,000 in value (currently $1m).

You spelled Tucson wrong. Twice.

September 30th...and then it’s safe through this year only? Or then they go through the reconciliation process next year and therefore can pass it with only 51 votes again? Sorry, I’m a little clueless on this.

Apparently it differs by state.

She hasn’t played her QF match yet. If she wins, it will be 3.

Yeah, I’ve always thought it was annoying how they split out A Storm of Swords in two seasons, but then crammed the fourth and fifth books into just one season, arguably the shittiest season of the show. That’s also when they butchered Dorne and put in Sansa/Ramsey.

No. Dorne was settled by people who lived on the Rhoyne, a river in the middle of Essos.

Good timing on this article. I’m soon to close on a house and I just paid off my car in the meantime - and I realized immediately after that it might have an adverse impact on my score, and that my lender might inquire why I closed an account (uh, because I want to have less debt before having a mortgage?)

Yeah, this. It’s the inconsistency that gets me. Don’t scream at me to remove my Kindle (really, an e-reader? Christ) at one airport and then roll your eyes like this is my first time ever doing this at the next place when I put my Kindle in the tray.
