    I live in Miami and i hate to report that it's going swimmingly well for the GOP. There's a culture down here that anything even looking like it might be confused with a leftist policy is immediately labeled COMMUNIST and hated with incessant fervor. No one dares be seen as a Castro-fellating leftist scumbag so they're constantly virtue signaling how republican they are. Same with anything the Catholic church doesn't like as there are lots of Catholics here and they vote as they're told. The result is you're as likely to see a Trump sign in a million dollar yard as a broke-ass apartment complex. Spanish-language talk radio here is so far to the right it wants to harvest the poor for their organs and bone marrow.

    If Florida goes for Harris I will be legitimately amazed. Thrilled, no doubt, but amazed.

    If you want to punish Musk in a meaningful way, then once the fine has been paid in full, the countdown can start. Once the same amount of time that elapsed between Twitter's first noncompliance and the fine's check cleared, then Twitter should be allowed back online. There will always be money to pay fines but they'll never get the time back. Other companies will take note.

    I'm in FL and I'm voting early just in case crap like this pops up. I hate voting early - every asshole in the county is camped out at the few early voting places to harass and cajole people who just want to vote. But I'm going.

    I'm not sure what the goal is for the SovCit. Are they trying to scam a dealership by making payment in some non-existent form? (that said, SovCits and car dealerships totally deserve each other)

    Musk isn't hurt by the amount of money he's fined, but it annoys him terribly that he can't control the situation and that his usual tools for getting his way are useless. It is a pebble in his boot that he can't bluster, cajole, or bribe his way out of the problem like usual.

    Thankfully impossible. Musk is foreign-born and therefore ineligible unless the constitution is amended and that bar is too high even though the GOP controls most state governments (they need 2/3rds). The GOP played with this idea back when The Governator was polling very well but even then it never passed the trial balloon phase.

    As I understand it, here in Florida you can sell plasma and you can donate blood or platelets. Blood donation places are not allowed to pay you for donating, but they are allowed to give you gifts like a gift card or t-shirt. I donate frequently at OneBlood (I literally hit 20 gallons this past Saturday!) and them being hacked is sickening.

    They lost me forever at "at the last minute". Anyone with even a slight concept of logistics knows there's no way they're just going to swap all the provisions, luggage, load, fuel, passengers, etc. at anything near the last minute.

  • Edmonton's last game was a statement. Can the Panthers reply in kind?

    One team with their backs against the wall, the other a win away from the promised land. The Stanley Cup is in the building and can be awarded tonight. Expect desperate effort from everyone tonight.

    The series transitions to the fast ice in Edmonton, making the Oilers' top threats even more dangerous. There's plenty of bad blood to spill on it, too; with memories of an egregious knee, a two-minute roughing call to the jaw, and a stick to the pills very close in memory. Discipline will be key for both teams.

    Bob is a good goalie but he can’t save the day every day. The Oilers are going to throw everything at him from all angles as fast as possible. This usually works for them after a loss and unerringly after a shutout loss. The Cats are in for some real pushback tonight and will be fortunate if it doesn’t get out of hand early.

    The first game of a best-of-seven between two teams with little reason to hate each other, yet. Crazy-high top end talent vs. crazy good team play. Dazzling offense meets grinding defense. A team who lost at this level a year ago hosts a team who expects to be at this level frequently.

    The best team in the league in the regular season with their backs against the wall for the first time this postseason. Skill, desperation, and stellar goaltending will be the key ingredients to their game tonight.

    What started as a best-of-seven series became a best-of-five and now it's a best-of-three. The Panthers finally won one in OT after dropping two straight in extra time but now have to play in MSG. They must win there at least once more to advance. NYR's top line is going to wake up tonight.

    Things look grim for the Panthers as the OT magic is gone and all their mistakes end up in their own net. It’ll probably just get worse from here.

    Taking a win out of NY should have been a big deal for the Panthers, but losing the second game in OT was definitely a downer. Now that Laviolette has a plan that works, it remains to be seen if he'll stick to it now that Vesey's week-to-week. What lineup changes will Maurice make to better take advantage of home ice?

    Fuck votes. Let them buy their way out. Once a fair value for the property, infrastructure, and future revenue is determined that value becomes the baseline for negotiations and the auction can begin. Oregon loses some freeloaders, gains a windfall, and becomes even more blue.

    If you've read "Six Days of War" then this will feel familiar. During that conflict Israel was worried that international outcry would require them to stop making territorial gains so they did all they could as fast as they could to lay claim before that bell rang.

  • The first game was closer than the score and Bob heard a few shots clang off the posts. Shesterkin really only let one get by him; the second was a fluke and the third into an empty net. The outcome could have been very different. Will the Rangers change their lineup or their approach? Are the Panthers satisfied with their squad and strategy?

    0

    The Cats just squeaked past an amazing goalie and now get to face another, only this one backstops a team with better offense. The Rangers waited until the second round to lose a game, and they dropped two to the same kind of relentless forechecking team they host tonight.

    ya know, I got nothing. the predicted ugliness didn’t materialize over the past two games, scoring is down, and Boston is 1-1 without their captain. Boston can’t keep losing at home in the playoffs. it’s a statistical freak anomaly. This series is probably going to seven games.

    Florida's power play popped and the fourth line is all charged up. Swayman looks human. Bennett is a marked man and will probably have to answer the bell a few times. If the refs "scrutinized" last game, this one's going to be under a microscope.

    Florida finally beat Boston for the first time since last season's playoffs but Boston earned a split in Sunrise and has home ice now. Florida *must* win at least once in Boston to advance. After two lopsided games, who shows up?

    Smacked in the mouth by a hungry team. Couldn't get their shit together. Couldn't beat a goalie who is clearly in the groove. This is a critical game for the Panthers and they'll probably blow it by trying too hard. Odd bet: the game winner will be a power play goal.
