TIL, Neil Bush. That’s it. Never heard of him.

Someone call Richard Hendricks

So, I live in San Diego, and frequent Tijuana and B.C. often. A few years ago, there was a similar cartel flare up. One of their top people was captured and they wanted him released. They vowed violence and set taxis on fire in many major cities including Tijuana and Ensenada. I was at a chill bar in Tijuana that night and all the lights came on. They took our bucket of beers and food away and kicked us all out. Everyone was panicking except for the locals. The food stalls didn’t close, but everything else did. We went home, no panic at the border crossing. The cartel released a statement explicitly saying they had no intention of hurting innocents or tourists, but the media spiral was already far gone. I dunno, I respect their candidness, and don’t ever really feel that scared as a respectful traveler, but who knows.

Imagine Dragons, ugh, music designed for car commercials and 8th graders, fucking rip my ear drums out.

It is really good. I make it from scratch sometimes,basivally foccacia with a thick and flavorful tomato goop on top. It’s super rich with a lot of olive oil in the recipe, but for me it’s the garlic, red pepper, and sugar that make the dish what it is. No cheese required here.

I wish so badly it was one of those times they just changed the font background color thinking that would do the trick and we could all really see what they were hiding

I’m surprised he didn’t insist his face be on one of the sides

I recommend Zombocom

That’s just one of the many things you can do at Zombocom

I think the bigger problem isn’t that she’s a young talented woman and America isn’t ready for that, I think the DNC is too stupid to ever let it happen even if it means winning because she likely won’t play as much ball with them as they’d want. My money is still on the DNC pushing Buttigieg. I believe they will offer any major opponents the same kind of offer I believe he got when he was crushing Biden in the early states. Drop out, make way for the anointed one, and we’ll give you a cabinet position and a shot down the line (maybe). The DNC will absolutely go younger, but I do not believe they’ll ever go progressive, which is why they will never get my vote again until they do.

Taco Bell takes issue with like half of these.

American History X. Curb stomping was a lot for 13 year old me to process.

Right now, the ticket I think has the best chance of winning is Buttigieg/AOC. I think the DNC knows they need to go younger and have someone who can stand up to a bully in an eloquent and calm manner that will win over reasonable people. And I think AOC probably knows that the only way the DNC is letting a democratic socialist on the ticket is if they fall in line a bit and not come off as a firebrand who has to fix everything with drastic change and would be willing to go incrementally in the left direction. The DNC would be wise to energize the Bernie youth vote they abandoned last election cycle, but they definitely won’t give her the keys or their blessing alone which blows. This ticket gives you appeal to the youth, to the rational elder folks like even my 70 year old lifetime republican father who hates trump, the gay community, city folk, country folk, and of course veterans too. Pretty solid combo if you ask me.

Yeah, but it’s delicious and makes me feel good and I don’t want to be 90 anyway. Wait, smokers say that. Shit.

He’s definitely gonna run for president again and is trying to position himself as relevant. He’ll never win.

I’m personally waiting for the inevitable fight over autonomous vehicles. The only way they truly work to our advantage is if nearly every car is self-driving. I absolutely foresee a “they’re trying to take my Trans-am” resistance, people that will be fighting to the death not to lose the ability to drive their own car.

I’m feeling pretty certain the dems will run Buttigieg. Feels like they’ve been prepping him for a while.

Sucks to be Matt Gaetz. I don’t say that in relation to this news really, I bet it just sucks to be Matt Gaetz like every day.

There was a park near my house where often cops would sit to catch speeders. Driving past one day, I didn’t see a cop and I told my parents I was surprised by this. My folks told me that they were there, just undercover. I asked where, and they pointed to a woman walking a dog and they told me it was an undercover speed dog. For years I’d point out suspected speed dogs when we’d drive places. I am not a smart man.
