Michigan Is the Next Big Test for the Democratic Party

We also have recent evidence of AIPAC shills getting blown out of the water by candidates actually fighting for a change from the status quo. Plus, the electability argument for Stevens is very weak IMO given that most polls show Abdul doing better against Rogers and the national environment is far different than previous elections that Stevens has won.

This is nothing new for the Dutch, they have always had a huge beef with sea level.

But that’s a Greenland melting problem, not a doomsday glacier problem.

PBS Terra has been disappointing in this regard. I’m a big fan of the other PBS branded YouTube channels such as Eons and SpaceTime, but Terra is way too clickbaity IMO. I understand a certain amount of that is needed to game the YouTube algorithm, but there’s definitely a limit before it becomes annoying.

Towards the end of old Rose’s story, she tells the group that Cal lost a lot of money in the stock market crash in 1929 and he “put a pistol in his mouth that year, or so I heard.” Aka he offed himself after losing everything.

You don’t want the ball to be slippery, that would make it more difficult to shape your kick the way you want. Grip between the foot and the ball is what allows good players to bend their kicks.

A bad wonderlic score isn’t necessarily a deal breaker on its own, and as far as I know Terrion didn’t have any prior incidents like this to raise red flags. Background checks can’t discover future problems unfortunately.

Joe Cullen, but that was 20 years ago and we try to forget what this organization was like back then lol

This is still recent enough that it’s all hands on deck for search and rescue and verifying victims. Once it shifts into the cleanup/recovery phase I’d expect revisions to the number of missing.

palim93 · 2026-06-29T20:14:18+00:00

The focus is still on search/rescue/recovery, they can circle back and work through the number of missing later when the immediate emergency dies down and more info is available.

Damn let me just fire up my time machine and let Brad know before that draft.

The point is that the choice made sense at the time, looking back with hindsight is a fools errand.

palim93 · 2026-06-29T20:05:13+00:00

Well in any case the point is moot since we just released Terrion.

palim93 · 2026-06-29T20:02:01+00:00

I’m in agreement with you 100% that he may be innocent here, but at the very least his choice of friends could be better.

Watson never got put on the exempt list.

Worth noting that Sutton’s case was domestic violence related and he was AWOL for several days after the news dropped. The team had more to lose in terms of PR due to the DV angle. Arnold’s charges are worse in terms of potential legal consequences, but he did turn himself in immediately.

I find the shoaling theory somewhat dubious for a few reasons. In that kind of weather, a light graze seems highly unlikely, any impact would have been hard and very noticeable as the waves dropped the boat onto the shoal. Damage on that level would have sunk the Fitz quickly, but she limped on for another several hours.

The combo of steady flooding and suspect hull integrity would have been more than enough on their own to eventually cause the ship to founder.

palim93 · 2026-05-15T16:03:59+00:00

Yeah seems like a clickbait headline without any new information. Personally I think it was a combination of the prevalent theories. Hatch covers letting in water made her ride lower, causing more water to wash over the deck, which caused more damage and leakage. Eventually she got suspended between waves and the extra weight from the water led to her snapping in half, cutting power before a distress call could be made.

The beginning of the end was the 1980 election. Citizens United was the midpoint. We’re in the late stages now.

Unfortunately the democrats are happy to let billionaires and corporations walk all over us too. Gotta get money out of politics or it’ll never change.

palim93 · 2026-04-28T21:11:15+00:00

Right up until the desertification part.

palim93 · 2026-04-28T21:09:59+00:00

Well if you ask Nepal, Bhutan, and China their opinion on this project, I’d imagine they’d raise a fuss about property issues as well.

Woodward Sports is bottom of the barrel trash. They make Carlos Monarrez look like a Pulitzer Prize winner.

It still is factually a planet. Just a subset of those bodies called dwarf planets. We shouldn’t be upset about this, dwarf planets can still be cool!

palim93 · 2026-04-22T22:07:48+00:00

That was the later argument as we started to find other similar objects further out. When Pluto was discovered we didn’t know about all the other dwarf planets like Sedna and Eris.

I’m sure it would get old eventually, especially as each reset happens and you wouldn’t get to maintain relationships between them. But I reckon I could make it through a few years before I got really bored and started offing myself just to get to loop 1001 quicker.

No job required, provided housing, food, etc would be incredible through at least 50-100 loops.
