I hope you told them to go and ‘Have a blessed day’. That’s what I say in Georgia 🙂I’ve thought of that, but it wouldn’t feel sincere.
Maybe something like “I believe in the Church of FSM. But we don’t try to convert non-believers, so you need to look it up on the internets, and decide for yourself.”.

PopeBeanie replied to the topic Biden WILL lose in 2024… in the forum Politics 2 years, 8 months ago
Well yeah, the same guy that’s in your topic’s title.
Here’s a potentially relevant story. My first thought was Clinton wants to see someone other than Biden running.
The “Clinton Breaks With Democrat Party” headline got my attention. As an aside, I can’t even tell who chose that headline, msn, msnbc, American Insider, or New York Post. (Doesn’t…[Read more]

Oh wow, nice! I’ll pay more attention now to who honors that, especially anyone close to them. Their mother has been involved with the group, e.g. helping to get their words and grammar right in their Spanish songs. I heard one of them, Dany?, say they feel they know English better than Spanish, although outsiders presume that Spanish is their prim…[Read more]

Readers Poll 2023: Paulina “Pau” Villarreal Vélez Wins “Up And Coming”
Nice photo of her. Short article in Modern Drummer. I looked it up after hearing they interviewed her for a podcast episode, but it’s yet not been posted as I write this. (I’ve never seen “Vélez” in the name before.)

The story that won’t die continues… The Hunt for the Nord Stream BombersI enjoyed reading that article, as it presented several possible scenarios, including my contention (left unanswered) that it wouldn’t take nation-state level technology and equipment to plant the bombs.

Hi! I won’t pay attention to you if you swear every other word that comes out of your mouth.I’ll say “noted”, but since there’s no policy against it here, and objections are rare (if I ever even saw one in several years), I don’t think there’s a remedy.

So, any thoughts on my what if idea about what a side group starring Alejandra would sound like. Possibly like a Spanish language version of L’Imperatrice?Yeah I meant to answer that.

He’s disconnected for a while before, after mentioning how he’s sick of all the bullshit. I don’t think he meant us, or at least not all of us 🙂 But I’ll bet he’s busy doing something else as a kind of vacation for his mind, and he did mention tiring of bullshit wrt the world outside of AZ.

Artificial Intelligence 2 years, 9 months agoI keep reading people complaining that AI chat doesn’t do much for them. But for me, it often helps immensely.

And now for something completely different. These reactors are fun, clever-Brit style. They don’t interrupt the song (Disciple), so you can skip forward as much as you like, although they do smile or chuckle at the same places I would.
