Re: Swamp Travel Guide: Santa Monica
So, I pulled the trigger and I'm headed out to LA for the Rose Bowl. I've really only been out there a couple of times for business, and never got to spend much time exploring. How are you planning to get to the stadium? We drove and parked there, which worked fine though it was a long walk. But it...

The autopilot is also probably way less likely to hit toddlers than cars that aren't using autopilot.

Holy shit, Dave. I hope your wife is doing ok. I'm sorry to hear that. Thanks. It was amazing, other than some bruises, she just had a broken finger that wasn't quite bad enough to go to the emergency room. The SUV took the damage for her. Luckily it hit her on the passenger side and I guess wasn't...

Hard disagree on the cursive “L” being too difficult. Mine looks like it should sewn onto Laverne’s sweaters. This. I'll write in cursive just so I can do the capital L.

Re: Presidential Election 2024
I thought states got to set their own voting ruless. Also it hasn’t been too much of an issue with other presidents committing treason. So maybe it isn’t the end of the world if this holds. 14th amendment doesn’t cover “ we don’t like them” I don’t think. You don’t think it’s treason for Biden to l...
