  1. I like black coffee, sort of ashy tasting. The stronger, the better. Typically French Roast, but some places don't roast their beans enough. My favorite is Peet's, but the best around Nebraska is Starbucks. Even Starbucks is getting weaker because everyone is ordering milkshakes instead of actual coffee. When I make coffee at home it's French Roast or Komodo Dragon, in a press. Black, no sugar.
  2. You asked him for his address. Why, if you think squatting is girls peeing?
  3. Cool story. So what were you talking about here?
  4. Can someone give me a tl;dr on whatever the latest right wing froth of "squatting" is?
  5. It's interesting. Orange Man Bad can't sell his shares for six months per an agreement. It'll be interesting to see if a company that's hemorrhaging money, with a tiny user base, is enough to keep that obviously inflated price that high for six months. The other problem is, for Orange Man Bad to realize any profits he'd have to sell his shares, but without his involvement what's the point of the app? There's every likelihood that as soon as he announces he's cashing in, the price plummets and he realizes a tiny fraction of that grossly inflated value.
  6. Exactly. This is just another in a long trend, dating back to the 2022 mid-terms that the Republicans were supposed to sweep, that have hinged on women voters protecting their rights. It's a fair point to bring up that only 6,000 people voted in this special election. But it's also fair to point out that the Republican platform is not driving their voters to the polls. This was a solid red county that a Democrat flipped decisively in Alabama, among the reddest of states. Only 6,000 people showed up. Low turnouts are typical of special and primary elections. But the salient point here is that the Republican platform - which comes from the top down - is not popular among Independents and a lot of Republicans. That's why they've lost since overturning Roe.
  7. It's the ultimate "be careful what you wish for." The Republicans have been playing a decades-long game to stack the Supreme Court and overturn Roe, and now they're setting their sights on Obergefell, trans rights, religious exemptions to discrimination laws, etc. Problem is, when that plan was hatched, America was a very different place. Today more people want freedom of choice, freedom to have the consensual sex they want to have, they want legal weed, they want the government out of their reproductive lives, sex lives and healthcare. The country changed, but Republicans didn't. I think that's going to bite them hard, starting this year (although it really started in 2022).
  8. It is the correct thread. Abortion rights are on the ballot. If Biden doesn't win, abortion will be criminalized early in the next term.
  9. Democrats keep winning elections. That is a huge change in just two years. Could probably draw a straight line from overturning Roe to all of these results.
  10. Mexico is going to pay for it. Jokes aside, he was asked about that, and he said that will come later. Finding out who's responsible could take years in maritime law, but that bridge needs to be rebuilt now.
  11. Matt (I'm pretty positive) has a naval background. He's pretty sharp about these things, and helpfully explains them in terms laymen like me can understand.
  12. Yeah, you can see in the video it loses power, regains it, loses it again, regains it again, but by that time it had drifted over 500 feet off course.
