The actual news article on his death make zero mention of his public position on Covid. If the fucker, like most of his party, actively spoke against policy that would have limited the spread if the disease, that should be in the first paragraph. "Stupid gently caress has poo poo-eating grin shredded by tiger after months of tiger denial".

His death would be tragic if he were one of the few among his peers to promote a sane, scientific approach. Judging by that tweet, his death is more "entirely predictable and mildly amusing but for the dozens of innocent people he likely exposed."

I'm perfectly willing to walk that back if it turns out to be inaccurate and he did actually fall into the first category.

And Harry's has always been a trash/divey spot, but my friend used to end up there all the time and it wasn't the worst bar considering DC has a ton of over priced bars. Especially in Penn Quarter. It was a okay place before Chuds started showing up (not that I've even been to a bar in the last year).

Got more good brexit news:

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2020/dec/16/brexit-pets-will-need-certificate-for-travel-to-eu-and-northern-ireland

quote:

Dog, cat and ferret owners will have to follow new rules if they wish to travel to the EU or to Northern Ireland with their pet following Brexit, it emerged on Wednesday.

From 1 January, people travelling from Britain with pets and assistance dogs will need to ensure they have an animal health certificate (AHC) instead of a pet passport no earlier than 10 days before travel, the UK government said on its website.

British pets required only a passport while their country was part of the EU. Only vets officially allowed to inspect animals for export can issue the certificates. The same rule will apply for taking animals from England, Scotland and Wales to Northern Ireland.

Eh televeterinary. That seems pretty easy to get. It’s stupid and pointless, but hey more business for UK vets. I’ll also being facetious with the last part.

Funny enough the UK was long known for being assholes about requiring long periods for animal quarantining, it’s why Bela Lugosi never wanted to work that much in England, since he couldn’t bring his dogs with him.

Also can anyone tell me if Ohio was even remotely valid to challenge in 04? I just seem to recall it being close, but nothing really out of the ordinary and it just came later. Also Hawley 24 continues ahead.

Hahah yeah a bunch of the reporters I follow were taking the piss out of him. One even joked that he tries not to rip on other reporters, and the comment section is mostly like Nah it’s cool.

Although Letlow seems to be a bit of an odd case of sometimes wearing masks and even when not he did try to maintain social distancing, at least according to some initial reporting. I mean it’s not like if Rand Paul had dropped. I’m sure it’ll come out he had horrible views or did horrendous things, but for the moment it’s kind of a gray zone. His last tweets were calling for people who had it to donate plasma (potentially self interested I get it).

That said none of this change the fact that Glenn is a loving tool.

Not really, it was WBush by 2%. Nothing wrong at all, just sore losing from Democrats and there was just one pivotal state instead of this year's four. There's a reason why the challenge only got 23 votes in the House and literally only one vote in the Senate.

Yeah, that was my recollection too. Perhaps if anything its a signal that we should accept the theater will occur and it will end as well as performance art. No, I’m not trying to marginalize the efforts to delegitimize the election, but this is one the Dems kind of set themselves up. I am willing to change that position if previous objections from before 2000 and say from the 60s on also objected besides that Hawaii incident. Honestly this procedure should only be used if you’re actually going for the throne and you’re not intending to miss vs political theater.

I will say this situation is even more lol because the number of states, but both are equally pointless and only serve to make the election process look rigged.

Hell 2000 was asking to play with fire in its own way. Imagine if Gore decided to go HAM about it.
