Beto getting in I'm in the bag for Beto completely. But he's realistically got little chance of winning.  BUT - I will say its interesting. I don't think Abbott's hard turn to the right is going to help him overall. And he's getting primaried from the right. That person (Allen West) is...

Piggy backing off of the pie thread - what is the best type of cake?

We all know how toxic some parts of the internet can be. I think a) I may be addicted and b) my addiction may make my life worse.  So starting today, I'm attempting to quit twitter* and the Political Forum for a week. I know I'll miss them both - at least at first. But I hope it will improve my...

I don't know if there is a separate thread for important deaths, but he probably deserves his own thread. What a life he led. Our country is a little worse tonight for losing this civil rights icon.

The United States has an affordable housing crisis. Its one of the biggest issues facing the United States in the coming years. I'm surprised it hasn't been a bigger topic in the election.  I work in real estate so this is a very interesting topic to me and I'd love to hear about solutions...

Chevy revealed the new mid-engine Corvette. 0 to 60 in 2.8 seconds. Looks incredible. All for under $60k (for the base). I admit I'm biased - my Dad worked for GM for 42 years. But it seems like they knocked it out of the park on this one. I hope it tests as well as it seems.

This is a long article by Radley Balko so I won't post it all - just the intro. But there are good suggestions in here on how to fix forensic science in the US - which is clearly broken. And that broken science is leading to wrongful convictions.  I think Trump was wrong to let the National...

Steve King is a white nationalist. A racist. And he's a GOP member of Congress. And the GOP doesn't seem to care. It seems like this is a really big deal. How is he still getting elected? Does the GOP care? Are they happy he represents them? The latest from Mr. King -  Rep. Steve...
