“...everybody was so looking forward to Ice meeting Fire...”

I was confused by Varys/Melsindre using these terms last night too - i thought the ‘ice’ and ‘fire’ references are supposed to mean the Others/Night King battling Azor Ahai/Dany/Jon?

Isn’t that epic thing? Isn’t Jon and Dany’s meeting just cool because we…

“We Gon’ Be All White”

“It sucks, but it’s the nature of the beast unfortunately.”

“Trump loses by wide margins in hypothetical matches against Joe Biden (54/39) or Bernie Sanders (52/39) for reelection. Trump loses 12-13% of the folks who voted for him last fall to either Biden or Sanders. Trump also trails…

yeesh what’s with the personal vendetta tone. good luck and safe travels.

this is an example of a flawed article - 1978 hmmm what happened around that time that made all fossil fueled travel extremely expensive?

anyways all jest aside, yes, if you are traveling by yourself well in advance on a short trip with a very limited carryon, you are saving money (but not 50%). But i disagree that is…

“Subway ridership is the highest it’s been since 1948 at 1.763 billion rides in 2015.”

Huh? NYC metropolitan area is like 20 million people.

“This is still $23k for free.”

That’s the stupidest understanding of a pension i have ever seen.

“humans are slow to react to risk”

That suggests there is no place that does infrastructure right, and that is self-consoling lie.
