A man went into the river after a boat being dragged in the current and got dragged himself. They found the boat but havenโ€™t found him.

Coast Guard helicopters are circling low over the river outside my house. Iโ€™ve seen them do this before and they were looking people that had fallen in, and ultimately drowned, last time. Prayers up.

โ€œLogical Chess: Move by Moveโ€ by Irving Cherniv.

It takes a large sample of real games and breaks them down move by move, explaining each move. Itโ€™s redundant so it explains even like opening pawns moves each time. You can play out the games together.

I do not disagree but I also want to emphasize that we have no evidence they were drug traffickers other than that the people who killed them say so

Shortly after I got out of college I didnโ€™t really know what to do and I briefly considered applying to Navy Officer Candidate School. Nothing came of it but when I told my mom this she goes, in one of her most Lucille Bluth moments: โ€œWell, as long as you wonโ€™t be an *enlisted* manโ€ฆโ€

Neighbors have actually lowered the American flag that hangs outside their house and raised the banner of Christmas

If no one can be prosecuted for this we really might as well just give up on everything. Not saying youโ€™re wrong lol.

Since America has a two party system, the party forms are basically immortal. If one party is in power and things arenโ€™t going well, thereโ€™s just one alternative. For the same reason the actual content of those forms is pretty much endlessly variable.

I grew up with a big Catholic extended family where thanksgiving was a million people packed in a house. My wife and I each have one sibling, neither of whom are likely to have kids for reasons. So our daughter wonโ€™t know what thatโ€™s like at all. That kind of sucks. Imo.

This year weโ€™re doing thanksgiving at a restaurant instead of anyoneโ€™s house. This was the best choice for various logistical reasons but Iโ€™m surprisingly bummed about it.

Please pray for a gentleman from my parish who recently passed away. He was a fixture at mass, in the choir, at eucharistic adoration and before the marian altar. His birth name was Rex but he went by Joseph.

Found out about the concept of a โ€œbuddy checkโ€ in veteranโ€™s support groups. Itโ€™s good obv, but kind of funny that โ€œperiodically ask your friend how theyโ€™re doingโ€ is something it would only occur to men to do in the context of combat vets suffering from PTSD.

When this is all over we will find out they were just running full on concentration camps

Like if you were doing calculus of โ€œShould I sleep with RFK out of my professional interestโ€. The potential cost is it gets out and you lose everything. And the potential benefit is maybe you get a slightly juicier profile?

Donโ€™t think itโ€™s quite true figures like Nuzzi do what they do to advance their careers. Maybe to some degree, but probably more often than not they wind up ruining their careers. Theyโ€™re just inclined toward impulsive and risky behavior.
