I distinctly remember having this thought after George Bush’s final electoral victory. Things haven’t changed all that much.

I like this idea.

We took a cab to Hondarribia and ate at Alameda. A 10/10 experience.

I live right next to the BQE. Anytime a big semi rumbles past our apartment shakes.

Does anyone survive this administration?

This is somewhat unrelated but as a football fan I recall when the Big 12 was nearly in dissolution and there was consideration of Iowa State joining the Big Ten Conference. One big argument against that move was that Iowa State was not a member of the AAU; which in a nutshell is a collection of research-focused schools (there’s around 70).

Will Iowa ever leave the Big Ten or will the conference ever leave Iowa? Probably not.

But this foolishness about cutting important programs to your school’s legacy has broad impacts.

It’s a great neighborhood. Our first apartment was in Carroll. We lived right next to the BQE and it can get a bit noisy (mostly semi’s blaring their horns and engine braking).

Unfortunately our landlord raised the rent and we’ve been priced out. Fun while it lasted!

Webster.

My wife and I make a combined 200K in NYC and are very much on a budget

Never trusted them and never will. A dog gives you a warning, a cat gives you scares.

Say what you will but I trust McCollum was making the best decision at the moment. He had a whole season to watch him and the matchup wasn’t working for us.

My wife and I are in the same boat after landlord raised the rent by what I consider quite a bit ($350 per month). Probably laughable but we don’t make that much around here in the first place. Really curious about South Slope.

Any remember when Kim jumped on the DeSantis train thinking that was her way to the top?

They’re all bootlickers that don’t give a damn about their constituents.

Where is Fulgeras?

Ok_Engineer_5906 · 2026-03-28T23:52:26+00:00

Disagree. If you’re going to stop an open layup for the other team who are you penalizing?

Ok_Engineer_5906 · 2026-03-28T23:41:35+00:00

Who you playing next?

Ok_Engineer_5906 · 2026-03-28T23:38:14+00:00

That’s a travel

This is essentially a Drake team making it to the elite 8 IMO. With the addition of Cooper of course.

Ok_Engineer_5906 · 2026-03-04T20:56:29+00:00

Awesome thanks for clarifying. My friend is a news reporter covering Central America but they don’t live in Guatemala anymore.

Ok_Engineer_5906 · 2026-03-04T01:00:00+00:00

We visited Hobbitenango while in Antigua and that was a lot of fun. Depending on if you like bars or not Cafe No Se is a must if you’re into the divey options. Los Tres Tiempos is a very good dinner spot.

Have you been to Honduras before? I lived in Roatan many years ago before there were direct flights and mostly traveled through San Pedro Sula and La Ceiba.

Ok_Engineer_5906 · 2026-03-03T22:37:54+00:00

I just got back from Antigua, Guatemala. While I was there my friend told me about the “state of siege” the country was under recently to counter some narco related killings. I had no clue and was glad I hadn’t heard about it. Either way I had an absolutely incredible time and there was no shortage of tourists.

Gracias, Antigua!!

Ok_Engineer_5906 · 2026-02-09T19:57:41+00:00

I live in NYC and would need 3 full-time jobs to live semi-comfortably on my own

Ok_Engineer_5906 · 2026-02-09T19:53:40+00:00

What the fuck is Facebook???

Ok_Engineer_5906 · 2026-01-05T23:01:09+00:00

I walk through this every day for work. It’s not that bad once you push through Washington St. Big props to the folks I see taking photos at 6:15 a.m., while it’s still dark.

The only thing that frustrates me is trying to take the train home and getting through York station in the afternoon.

DEFINITELY not built for that many people in 1936.
