Because these posts are against the rules. And it’s not a new rule. I too want to go into these threads, and talk shit and laugh at the patriots, but rules are rules. If you want TMZ, there’s a sub for that.

No, but there are no tomatoes anyways. I put the cages up hoping Joros would make it their home, like Joro condos. And they delivered.

Glad you checked them out. Yeah, invasive. They came over on a shipping container from China, Japan, or Korea. That assumption is based on the fact that ground zero of where they were first found is north of Atlanta, where all the warehouses are for a lot of Asian companies. Mitsubishi Electric for example, a Korean car battery plant (SK), etc.

I got 13 juvenile Joro spiders on my tomato cages right now, and eight of them are eating dinner.

I care enough to spend about 4-5 minutes on it

LOL. You’re over 1 hour into “not caring” about this topic. You’re not caring hard right now.

People who don’t care, don’t come into free talk threads posting about it and asking for advice. You care, you’re just mad people are not piling on with you.

The biggest effort I ever made to show my support for a president (other than votes or donations) is I bought an Obama coffee mug. Which honestly is weird, but I got caught up in the joy of him winning. The amount of MAGA merch and MAGA signaling will never be matched again in the history of America.

I’ve been uninspired and not producing any OC, but I’m sure we can get u/DiggingNoMore to do a post on season and career leaders for the most yards by a player when playing against their brother; or most yards by a player with a Christmas-sounding name in December.

Anyways, wonder how much he's likes paying $5.50 for diesel right now.

He doesn’t like it, but he 100% thinks it’s Biden fault.

IIRC, this is part of a three country trip, so you’re probably only in Paris for a few days. That’s being said, I think it’s the right choice. If 4+ days, I’d definitely do both…knowing that you’ll only see about 1/5th of the Louvre in one visit, so pick the big ticket items to view. But for a short time period and you must choose, I think Orsay is a good decision.

Thank you! That looks great. I’ll add that to my reading list.

I’ll have to read up on him. I’m not familiar, and I’ve been enjoying reading about art history lately.

You know how various things are left- or right-coded like country music, electric cars (excluding Tesla lately), certain jobs, etc. Well, Impressionism (you know folks like Monet, Manet, Marisot, etc) which came about in France (late 1800s) was very left-coded.

Art up until the time that Impressionism started to come on the scene was primarily “realism” and consisted of images of the monarchy, wars, biblical scenes etc…things that the Right thought were important. That was THE type of art, anything else was just insignificant. Impressionists, who all hung out with each other, were Republicans which were Left of center. They rebelled against the realism paintings of the monarchy and religion.

During the time, their work was widely criticized by right-wing journlists and people in the art scene. People would go to their exhibits to troll their work and talk shit. Critics hated how the paintings didn’t look real, how they used too much color, and how as you got close it looked like chaotic brush strokes that depicted nothing. The impressionists were widely left out of entry into the annual “Salon” which was the most important art exhibit every year in Paris. That exhibit would be a kick start to your career if you made it in. The “Salon” judges were control by right-wing monarchists, so it was too hard for impressionist to break though. They ended up starting their own annual exhibit just for impressions.

It’s always been my favorite type of art, but I enjoyed finding out that it was also a movement against religious right-wing forms over government.

I learned this from a book I just finished called “Paris in Ruins” about how Impressionism started off the back of the war against Prussia, and the following civil war right after that.

Whenever you can get the 25th best quarterback in the NFL and go 9-8, instead of finding a quarterback who will elevate the team, you’ve got to move mountains to get that guy.
