Damn it. I think I want to try this again. If there is room. Tuesday and Wednesday I do believe are my least accessible days.

I was going to echo Longrider. I originally looked at what was said as being a specific of what was, supposedly, being discussed at that point of the rally. Then I remembered that nothing matters when it comes to nuance, let alone logic or common sense, with the MAGA crowd. Should he lose, and really there isn't any legitimate reason why he should win (hell, his candidacy shouldn't even being happening in a sane world), there will be, at the least, attempted violence. It's only a matter of how much is allowed to happen.

It's remarkable his "people" tell him anything that is part of the plans knowing of his inability to keep a secret long before the mental rot set in on him. I realize there is a chunk of the electorate eating this garbage up, but how anyone else think this guy belongs in power? And honestly, shouldn't there be some kind of Justice Department action over commentary like that? I'm truly trying to think of a great excuse to get my family out of the Milwaukee area over the week of the Convention in July...

Currently reading: Patricia McKilip's The Tower at Stony Wood. All kinds of different vibes with this one, though almost all of them feel Aurthurian... Currently listening to: Tom Miller's The Philosopher's Flight. This is one I've flirted with purchasing for a while since I saw it at B&N, but never pulled the trigger. When it came up as a suggested option for listening, I decided to give it a go. And damn it is fun. Plenty of Harry Potter or Wise Man's Fear vibes here, but (for me at least) mostly better. Now I know I'll pick this one up to have a hard copy.

Is it still Roto? Weekly? Daily? Where should I read to get some reminders?

A New List to Dissect: 10 Iconic Fantasy Novels Ripe for Rediscovery
Jaxom 1974 replied to Jerol's topic in Literature
Okay, the list convinced me to give Kushner's Swordspoint a try, though looking over her books, The Privilege of the Sword looked more interesting but I figure I should start at the beginning to make sure I understand what's going on in this world... Also picked up The Tower at Stony Wood by McKillip, as my library didn't have the story listed in the article available and this one seemed like I'd enjoy it. -
Not sure. Haven't tried baseball in years. What's the set up again? I may try, if only to allow Jaime the chance to avoid the basement...

I'm (obviously) a huge proponent of McCaffrey so it's nice to see her on this list...but Anne's stories. NOT her son's terrible fan fiction... -

Friends: TV Show 1994 - 2004 (Sitcoms)
Jaxom 1974 replied to A True Kaniggit's topic in Entertainment
How in the heck did this thread, ostensibly about one of the most popular American sitcoms ever, devolve into a discussion about what constitutes a superior British sitcom...usually about ones most of haven't heard of, let alone seen unless you've caught them on PBS late on a Friday or Saturday? That's high comedy... -

US Politics: The sides have gotten… weird
Jaxom 1974 replied to Ser Scot A Ellison's topic in General Chatter
That was the only state with bigger numbers. Anything with Super Tuesday seemed generally small, particularly in proportion to the percentages Biden was getting otherwise. -

Did the "Uncommitted" vote really see that kind of showing? Because I wasn't seeing it that way, but then, I'm only a voter commenting on a message board dedicated to a fantasy book series, so what do I know? -

To be fair, all four that you mention, are still on all the time. If you only have basic cable, you're assured to have at least one of those shows on for hours at a time (during the day or late night) every single day. As mentioned yesterday. Also, Two and Half Men, Mom, King of Queens, and oddly enough, Golden Girls...
