There’s a reason they sell it, dude. The fact that a brewery sells rum and soda is because they realize if you don’t like beer, but your friends do, you might not tag along, and they wouldn’t get an opportunity to sell you anything!
Different people have different tastes, and some folks are just not going to like certain flavor profiles.
Within beer though, there is so much variety, I’d be shocked if there wasn’t at least one beer out there that you’d thoroughly enjoy. It’s just not likely worth the effort of finding that one.
The Cabinet does not have any collective executive powers or functions of its own, and no votes need to be taken. There are 26 members: the vice president, 15 department heads, and 10 Cabinet-level officials, all except two of whom require Senate confirmation. During Cabinet meetings, the members sit in the order in which their respective department was created, with the earliest being closest to the president and the newest farthest away.

That’s beside the point though.
Eh… Biden did the same thing several months ago and ran a Dark Brandon ad on their website during a Republican primary debate that they streamed.
The fact of the matter is they are a media outlet that tons of people watch for better or worse. And it’s not like they weren’t going to fill the airtime otherwise with some other advertisements.
Folding in some messaging for Harris-Walz doesn’t seem like a bad use of their campaign funds. Especially because the potential gains are so important. Undecided independents are super important, but removing folks from his base will help provide a mandate from the electorate.
Was that pre ACA? When we had our kid, we only paid a $175 hospital stay copay. Granted… we’re very lucky with the insurance coverage provided by my employer, but we were under the understanding that the reason we didn’t have OBGYN copays and otherwise throughout the pregnancy was because the ACA made sure it was covered.
Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!
Not so many among us who take these words seriously anymore…
It’s just not the same…
Halo CE Hang ‘em High on the original Xbox with Rockets and Grenades (we didn’t specify… frags were game too) will always be one of my favorites.
That, and Sidewinder CTF. Those were some of the most intense hours of my young adulthood in college.
Thanks for sharing this right before bed… dickhead.
Maybe it’s an integrity thing? Maybe he felt like having a financial interest in different companies might bias him in an unethical way?
Legit… the idea that he’d ever be caught on camera standing in front of a sign that had anyone else’s name besides his own or his running mate’s is just brain dead branding.
I mean… they can’t possibly miss the joke, can they? It fucking racks my brain, the density of these fuckwits sometimes. The whole reason this is still a thing is because they’re saying shit like, ‘If you accuse some of X, you’d better have proof.’
To be honest, I always looked at The Book of Mormon as fan-fic more than an actual sequel…
I thought that was the Book of Mormon…
This almost as bad as that international competition where when the Kazakh person won gold in their event, the organizers played the national anthem from Borat instead of the real national anthem of Kazakhstan…
They were pissed…

I have a very common American name, but with a very European spelling. I’m 41 fucking years old. It gets under my skin at least a little bit when I see it misspelled, regardless of how understandable it is…
I’ll bet Vance would drop acid and jerk a dolphin off too…
Belgian beers in general can be so lovely. Of the three big brewing traditions, the Belgians seem to have the most variations. The Germans with their lagers and hefes, and the Brits with their various ales are both very strict with regard to rules for ingredients and methods. The Belgians, however, went crazy with their ingredients and adjuncts and methods. They are also the culture whose monasteries make some of the best beers in the world, the Trappist ales. Those are pretty tightly regulated, but so are any other culturally significant historical products like Parmigano Reggiano…
One of the best beers I’ve ever had, bar none, was a saison I brewed myself from an extract kit I got from Northern Brewer. It was amazing. It was unlike any beer I’d ever had before. It was malty, slightly hoppy, and I used some coriander seed during the boil. Absolutely lovely.
