Re: Federal Scientists Recommend Easing Restrictions on Marijuana

I have often debilitating sleep issues. My physician is aware that I use MJ to aid sleep, but would rather I take an Rx drug. I just look her in the face and say if you've got something in your PDR that will work any better, I'll be more than happy to try but until then you can STFU. So far the sco...

Re: Winter Storm 2024

I don't know where you are, but unless it snows 6" with gusts to 30mph, schools will be open in my area. I guess you forgot that Queen Whitmer likes to close down the state, including all schools, universities, and even the post office, when it gets cold outside. This from the year before Covid hit...

Re: Guaranteed Income Starts in Flint

I'm just stating the reality that you will never ever end poverty. There are a certain percentage of people who are pre-disposed and destined to live that way, and there's literally nothing that can be done about it. Giving them cash is a temporary band-aid. That cash doesn't fix the broken families...

Re: Guaranteed Income Starts in Flint

Ok, what's your plan to end poverty? Cause the fight is worth having. You think poverty can be ended? The Bible suggests otherwise. Deuteronomy 15:11 "For there will never cease to be poor in the land..." Mark 14:7 "The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them whenever you want..."...

Re: Guaranteed Income Starts in Flint

...1 on 100,000. But why not find the most absurd abuse example and try to present it as what will happen for everyone... You mean like your suggestion that freezing to death - something that statistically happens less often than being killed by a lightning strike - is somehow a significant problem...

Re: Stop me if you've heard this before: "Trump is unfit for office"

So when you vote for him, you're ok with him seeking vengeance on those who have wronged him if he wins? He can't control himself in a case where he has no power - can you imagine what he'd do with the power of the presidency based on what has happened since he left office? Are you ok with what you...

Re: Stop me if you've heard this before: "Trump is unfit for office"

In terms of his behavior, [the merit of the case] is irrelevant. I fundamentally disagree with this position. The "system" is trying to take away all of his money and put him behind bars for the rest of his life (I'm talking all of his cases, cumulatively). He has every right to be in attack mode u...

Re: Stop me if you've heard this before: "Trump is unfit for office"

My point is they simply grasped at straws and tried to bring politics into it and Trump attacked the judge and all of these extracurricular things INSTEAD of being able to make a coherent and plausible argument. I'm pretty sure Trump's lawyers put forth coherent legal arguments. It is just that the...

Re: Weather reporting

Gonna be an interesting storm here where I'm at in northeast Michigan as just like with the last storm, there looks to be some (relatively speaking) warm air that is going to wrap in from the east and probably mix some rain in with the snow, in particular overnight Friday night. The slushy snow from...

Bill Belichick OUT

Rumor has it that he will be leaving New England and that the official announcement is coming today at noon. He had one year remaining on his contract, but apparently both parties have mutually decided to terminate that contract without consequence to either. The decision was apparently made about 2...

Re: I finally did it!!! I dumped Xfinity for video service in favor of YouTubeTV!

I've had Dish Network for over 20 years and was grandfathered into their "Welcome Pack." While it offers next-to-nothing in terms of sports channels, it includes a decent (seemingly random) assortment of cable networks and all my locals and even a few other OTA networks (BUZZR, Bounce, Grit, and LAF...

Assuming you're on a phone or tablet, that's most likely something you clicked on your phone's web browser so you'll have to change it there - something like "Request Mobile Site"

Re: Winter Storm 2024

The barometric pressure at my house on a baraometer that I've had for many years reads 28.74 inches. First time I've ever seen it get below 29. This is one powerful low pressure system!

The big story will prove to be the brutally cold air mass poised to strike our area next week. Computer models disagree on exactly where this cold air is going to end up, but here it is as of Friday night: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ea1f4115efd54dc30fbdc6065c599e0444e8566651d108161e2fdd4f...

Re: Fucking Covid

Not a fan of statistics? Guys your age are often killed driving through stop signs you didn't see. The odds of dying in a plane are amongst the lowest. Just let me know when you get in your car. So you would also agree, based on CDC's own statistics, that it is/was completely unnecessary for the va...
