"my teeth are falling out"

wtf
Those are bits of his skull.

Holy fuck I guess Herzog finally came in his stupid slacks so he could stop it. Christ almighty.
 
So, if Anthony Smith dies tonight, will he be counted as a coronavirus victim?
 
"I was hoping so."
Honesty, man. I like it.
That was Smith's fight to lose, I think. He came in way too hot and blew it all early. He could have kept pumping that jab from a bike and picked Glover apart. Great performance by Glover. Just damn fine all around.
 
I'd like to see an alternate timeline where Francis Ngannou got into Greg Jackson's camp in his mid 20s.
 
Good night of free fights, Arlovski with another performance in which I can’t remember anything that happened, an albino bear attacked Ovince, Smith’s teeth falling out should become a meme, and Dober is obviously the best LW that ever rocked a 40+ dollar haircut.
 
Not counting any additional interest that will accrue between now and my next payment in June... which at this stage likely would only accrue a couple cents a day.

I have ~$360 in principle left to pay.

Feels fucking good man.

@Sara does that mean Greg will get an increased gun allowance?
 
TR's tough guy image was the result of a huge PR campaign... carried out by him. He was his own publicist, more or less. I mean, he commissioned a fake ass painting of him valiantly leading the charge in an imperialist, expansionist war.

I read this book in grad school and there is a whole chapter dedicated to ol' Teddy

Like the History Channel article notes, the guy had a strange mix of racial and gender anxiety. He was obsessed with manliness and conquest, so he constantly argued for US expansionism on the grounds that the civilized white race had a duty to spread civilization throughout not just the continent but the world (Hawaii and the Philippines by this time)

He's regarded as a great president because both liberal and conservative historians see no problem with American imperialism. So the US should rule the world, they just disagree on what method is best.

His reining in of Gilded Age cunts is undoubtedly a positive though. So he gets a B- from me. Good but not great.

Look, I like the annexation of Hawaii (which occurred before his presidency) less than literally anyone else here. But I think you’re really ignoring how great of a domestic president he was. His work trust busting and in conservation is enough for me to think highly of him.

I don’t really consider personal failings either. So vanity or racism or whatever is meaningless to rating his presidency; especially when in practice he was less racist and less self-serving than the average person of the time despite being far, far, more capable.

You’re also underrating Tim Duncan. But I get it, you’re a Houston guy.
