He has only introduced a handful of bills to comittee and none of them have gotten out. Even other dipshits get Post Offices and highways renamed along with the other trash that passes without discussion.

He has no interest in actual governance I think. Without even saying he's a bad guy or whatever (which there's plenty on that matter to say). He's here to interfere with the possibility of anything going on from what I can tell.

e: I hate having a political post snipe.

Actual governance isn't hard, per se, but it requires the ability to commit time, effort, apply experience, build relationships, know the subject matter and most importantly intelligence. None these are things that Jim Jordan possesses. Being a bomb thrower from a Ohios 4th congressional district requires nothing.

Jordan thinking he is at all qualified for this job (even compared to other republicans) is a good indication of the kind of delusional idiots he surrounds himself with a problem for the GOP as a whole.

The GOP has also been spending years fluffing him up. He always seemed to get appointed to high-profile committees, and especially the special committees like the Trump impeachment ones. He's really good at being a loud mouth idiot, and the GOP absolutely loves their loud-mouthed idiots.

This is in no way meant to be a defense of Hastert or anything, the man deserves to burn in hell, but I thought it was a weird case of a sex criminal only doing it a couple times then deciding it wasn't for him and didn't repeat?

This is entirely based off a joke a heard on Chapo Traphouse so all of the mea culpas if I'm wrong and he actually was a serial sex criminal instead of a one off.

Did you get the ear cleaning kit that shoots water in via a small tube?

When I was a kid I had an ent who said I had the waxiest ears he’d ever seen. I have this thing that squirts pressurized water way deep into the ear canal and you would not believe the stuff that can get dislodged.

Every few years I'd have to get hydro-blastd, and some truly evil poo poo would slither out of there.

When I was getting out of the Army, one stop is for your hearing test, so they compare it against the baseline test they gave when you joined up.to determine hearing loss. My dad said "well hell that's easy, just don't push the button".

So I figured if I heard any beeps louder than about, oh......this level, I'd push the button, and then ignore the quieter ones. Nothing too outrageous.

After the test, audio tech looks at the readout and says "holy poo poo, I don't even know how you heard me tell you to take off your headphones. This is practically deaf." So right on cue, I go "huh?".

They send me upstairs to have my ears flushed. They get a bit of stuff, nowhere near some of the worst times I've had, and send me back down for a re-test.

At this point, I'm not loving around. I press the button at every hint of a beep. Test over, the tech holds up both tests, looks at me in amazement, and says "how much loving wax did they find in there??????"

Cable fading fast. I'm kind of surprised YoutubeTV is destroying everyone else (streaming) since it's college football fans surveyed. I will say that YoutubeTV Multiview is a complete game changer for watch college football. Having 4 games going at once is so nice.

Old man of the sea over here I guess, but I still like the TiVo UI, and despite it being a completely dead platform, things like sports "excitement" ratings for which games to watch continue to work.

At this point with my bundle, cable is about the same price as YTTV, so I'm going to be the last person in America with a cable card consuming delivered content in an environment the provider or content creator doesn't control.

Salmon Killer (Salmon skin, avocado inside seared salmon with garlic sauce on top) and Midnight Sun (Eel, Avocado and Cucumber inside seared salmon with spicy mayo & unagi sauce on top) as examples of what was ordered.

Speaking of infections, I think I have a sinus infection. Had a cold last week and was mostly over all my symptoms by Thursday, but sinus pressure has lingered. All of a sudden today the pressure has increased a lot, and I generally feel like crap. Never had this happen before, so I'm worried I've got something going on. Probably time to head to urgent care and see if I need antibiotics.

Having a toddler has granted me a first sinus infection a month or two ago, same symptoms - cold but also the sinuses/forehead headaches got bad. Round of antibiotics cleared it up well.

It takes a lot to get that far: anyone who can make it deserves a lot of credit! I'm sort of dreading my MSW program because I've developed a deep contempt for the specific kind of academic writing that my coursework will demand from me. I'm never loving going back to school after this.

At least he doesn’t have the bowl cut anymore.

Also, I’m flying for the first time in almost 10 years, man I forget the dog and pony show getting through check in and security.

Also I sat down to wait for my flight and was surrounded by college kids that were talking about NFL bets and I left. And there’s no space at the bar, I want an old fashioned.
