Metal in a CT machine = bad image

Metal (particularly ferromagnetic metal) in an MRI machine = injured patient

And I say heeeyyy-yey-yey-yey-yey!

French FORAD/OPFOR blue flecktarn is the sexiest camo. Practicality be damned.

Whatever, just don’t bring back UCP.

What?

It’s the worst ski year I’ve seen. My last day out I was dodging twigs and mud some spots. One small resort in my region completely closed for a few days last week due to lack of snow. It feels like early April out there, not early February.

I am a banana!

The bike lane:

“I’d never done a crazy thing in my life before that night. Why is it that if a man kills another man in battle, it’s called heroic, yet if he kills a man in the heat of passion, it’s called murder?”

Or use their moment to make a visible protest. 1968 comes to mind.

Thanks for posting these. Graham Annable is a gem.

US Constitution Article 1 Section 9 Clause 8, “Titles of Nobility and Foreign Emoluments”:

No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.

It’s literally unconstitutional. In the past, foreign gifts to presidents were typically turned over to the National Archives to avoid breaking the law. If Congress was a functional governing body they would rake him over the coals for this, among the hundred other laws Trump has casually flaunted.

I hope so, but I’m not optimistic. Starting in 2016 the GOP centered their entire platform around Trump. Candidates completed to be the most dedicated Trump supporters. Republicans who weren’t on board either resigned or were largely replaced at the polls with MAGA candidates. They can’t abandon him; it would be a total identity crisis. They are going to ride the Trump train to the bitter end.

In case anyone forgot, Rittenhouse went to a protest with a loaded rifle looking for a fight, shot two three people, walked away untouched, was acquitted, and got speaking gigs on conservative TV shows. You can do whatever you want as long as you’re on the “right” side.

Too many times I’ve been out of the house with the kids and had people say things like, “You’re on Mom duty today, eh? Ha ha.” It’s frustrating that so many people have such low expectations for dads.

Sorry Colorado and Austin, TX, you’re on your own. Good luck.

It would be a (small) step in the right direction if it had any chance of becoming law. It’s a non-starter in the House, and Trump certainly wouldn’t sign it either.

That resolution was kneecapped by the Authorization for Use of Military Force after 9/11. Multiple presidents have treated it as a blank check to execute military actions around the world without congressional approval. Just call the targets “terrorists” (or “narco terrorists” now) and do anything without repercussions.
