The things I absolutely will not skimp on at the grocery store are condiments (including oils and vinegars) and deli meats. Big, recognizable brands only.

Kyle Williams coming up NEXT on Jim Rome
LeviF replied to Seasons1992's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
His takes can be dumb but for my money he still does some of the best interviews in the game. -
That I'm helping to gentrify. Now with breweries!

Took tomorrow off. Golf with beer and cigars followed by more beer at a friend's place. Girl taking me to brunch on Saturday, after that more drinking, not sure where yet. Might take a break on Sunday. Might not. Monday golf with beer and cigars with a BBQ in the afternoon. Then up early Tuesday morning to go to the city for work.

Resurrecting this thread because I found this take on identity politics: While Juror presented his questions without commentary or thesis, there are many who would present those questions with the thesis "it's bad for straight white men to participate in identity politics" outright stated and the idea that it's ok for black folk, LGBT folk, etc. to participate in identity politics implied. My only commentary is this: if straight white men are beginning to act more "tribal," in the sense of voting as a group rather than as individuals and embracing identity politics, look for the Left and the "moderate" Republicans to start decrying identity politics loudly and with great fervor within the next few years.

And that's the case in almost every profession, and reasonable accommodations are made for religious and other affiliations (and disabilities). But the ADA doesn't guarantee a paraplegic a QB1 job, and the First Amendment doesn't guarantee a devout Christian will be able to get paid for a job that requires working on Sunday.

I'm represented by a union at my job. When our contract runs out we often hold demonstrations. My employer does not allow me to go to these demonstrations on work time. Work time is from the time I leave my home for the start of my shift until the time I get home from work at the end of my shift. If I attend demonstrations on work time, I can be suspended, placed on a lesser duty, and/or charged PTO. These are reasonable limits on my right to assembly. Same goes for NFL players.

See but now you've given him ammo to move the goalposts again. It never ends. First it's "muh freedoms" then it's "well they don't do it where you work" soon it will be something else ridiculous to cover up the fact that he believes, in truly mind-numbing fashion, that a private entity having a workplace code of conduct is infringing on 1st Amendment rights.

May Movies: Deadpool, Solo, Overboard, & Breaking In
LeviF replied to Mark Vader's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Saw Deadpool last night. Great film, I wouldn't put it entirely on par with the first but IMO it's very close. Two red band trailers in my screening, one for Happytime Murders and one for Sorry to Bother You. -
There's always the China method. Show trial, then drag them out back and cap them over a pit.

Another school shooting - Texas

I know you're short but I had no idea that would go so far over your head. -
Voter fraud or taking advantage of a loophole?
LeviF replied to Just Jack's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Very loosely, I have a "skin in the game" mindset. Landowners, members of the military, registrants for selective service, net taxpayers, some combination of the above, etc. It's not well-formed yet. -
The Deep State War Heats Up :ph34r:
LeviF replied to Deranged Rhino's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
It may well be, and I'm not saying that there is no truth to it. Shurter long ago exposed himself as a fraud in the Franklin Files community and associates with convicted sex offenders. -

LeviF replied to Deranged Rhino's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I suppose I object to your characterization of him as a "survivor." He's a survivor of his own pathological narcissism, nothing more. -

LeviF replied to Deranged Rhino's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Shurter is a known lunatic. And the SRA moral panic was just that, a moral panic. Pedophilia, child prostitution rings, and child abuse are very real. Don't diminish that fact by giving charlatans like Shurter your time or energy. -
I have a friend who is a true love-child. Her parents were both married to other people when she was conceived! They each divorced, then married each other, 23 years strong now. She has 8 half siblings and reunions are a blast.
