That was sweetness compared with the 2016 DNC in Fidelfya. I needed a half-year of foot massages and cognitive behavioral therapy after that one.

P.S. Tell Jamie I love him. Tell Jamie I need him. Tell Jamie not to cry. My love for him will never die.

Qasim Rashid is the one person in this quick discussion I'd like to have actually met. I follow him on Facebook and you should definitely get all you can about him. He is a cool frood.

Otherwise your post sounds like trying to get anywhere or see anything at any big convention, like SIGGRAPH (https://s2024.siggraph.org/), which i quit bothering to attend ages ago.

There was still a Guinness Stout in the refrigerator of the Countdown House after last week's Toomush convention. I drank it...

Having no TV, I'm catching up today on what looked pretty fucking great. Also they should have swept you guys in on their shoulders, a la Billie Jean King. Oh. and McCormick Place kills migrating birds by the thousands because they can't bear to darken their windows at night. They all suck.

An ex-Arizonan, I would do......... a LOT............ for a selfie with Congressman Gallego.

And I mean that in the sauciest way possible, okay?

KICK ABSOLUTE ASS IN NOVEMBER, RUBEN!!!

I'm 99% sure that "child" with the beer is actually Jack Doherty, one of the most awful human beings ever to exist. He made a fortune on Tik Tok as one of those obnoxious "pranksters" who just straight up harasses random people until they get pissed off, then his giant bodyguard steps in to protect him. He also "manages" several Onlyfans cam girls, because of course he does. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzJ2OpEpuoA

If it is Jack Doherty than he is not old enough to drink beer legally. He will not be 21 until October of this year.

Yeah, that sure looks like him.

This actually was a totally great post. The only thing that would make it perfect is a picture of the marvy couch. (A tasteful pic, not something likely to excite Couchfucker Vance.)

When is a picture of a couch just a picture of a couch?
