Stupid sexy panorama

Thanks! But it was nothing fancy. A Canon T3i with EF-S 10-18m lens. I mostly got lucky with the bird staying very still, while very close to me, while I somehow managed to have a steady hand.

Since no one has posted this yet so far, the Mattress Underground is the place to go for high-quality information about mattresses.

You'll learn far more than you'd ever want to know about mattresses. And you'll probably end up paying more too if you buy from one of the recommended retailers. But if quality is your main concern, then this is how you figure out what's real and what's not.

Just sharing this clip from American Dad in case you haven't seen it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFV1uT-ihDo

Plato, Republic, Book I, Cephalus' speech:

How well I remember the aged poet Sophocles, when in answer to the question, How does love suit with age, Sophocles⁠—are you still the man you were? Peace, he replied; most gladly have I escaped the thing of which you speak; I feel as if I had escaped from a mad and furious master. His words have often occurred to my mind since, and they seem as good to me now as at the time when he uttered them. For certainly old age has a great sense of calm and freedom; when the passions relax their hold, then, as Sophocles says, we are freed from the grasp not of one mad master only, but of many.

This is only scratching the surface of the weirdness of semen retention advocates. Throwback to the Canadian political candidate who advocated for this a few years ago:

"Every time you're tempted to ejaculate, every time you're tempted to go watch porn... You are essentially in the fight for your life. You're fighting for your very lifeforce. Nature's forgiving, and because of nature's merciful nature, we've taken advantage of that nature and now we're depleting," argues Nakula. "Right now the world needs men. Men with full balls," said the PPC candidate in a YouTube video.

“Breathe deeply into your balls," he wrote on Instagram. "Imagine your testicles expanding like lungs. When you exhale, imagine your testicles deflating like your lungs would". “Most men never breathe into their balls consciously,” he added.

Do you know what would be even more freaky? If you saw her again.

It's probably worth mentioning too that Ro Khanna is usually listed as the top stock trader in Congress:

I generally like what Khanna has to say but I'm always skeptical about how sincere he is. He's struck me as a bit of a faux-populist.

The law, in it's majestic equality, imposes taxes on the private jets of the poor and the rich. - Anatole France or something

He endorsed Bernie Sanders in 2020 and I don't think he's changed his politics since then.

My brother, have you heard about the benefits of diversification? If you want to retire at all, don't put all your eggs in one basket.

They also already did it in Wisconsin in 2018: https://www.axios.com/...

FYI the vote did happen a few days ago. It just had the entirely predictable result of failing, since there was no longer any leverage for Republicans to vote for it

Anyone remember this classic line from Trump 1.0 about hurricane Florence?

This is a tough hurricane, one of the wettest we’ve ever seen from the standpoint of water

In America, a handjob is called a "Handy"

Yeah, the title could have easily just been: "Supreme Court upholds ban on emergency abortions in Texas" and it would be way clearer

Believe it or not, it's 10,000

Just guessing but:

1. He's gay and that might turn off some swing voters especially people who are already hesitant about having a black woman at the top of the ticket
2. He's never won any election beyond a municipal one, so he may be seen as electorally untested.
3. His resume is a bit thin with just his time as a mayor of a small town and time as the transportation secretary.
