So what do we think happens after Trump impeachment proceedings begin? Seems pretty clear parties will just further entrench themselves. Unless there is a really obvious thing to impeach on.

Five thirty-eight had some chat on if Trump should answer Mueller questions. Don't see how anyone could answer yes to that.

Yes, of course.

US medical billing has a specific code set aside for spacecraft related injuries:

That's pretty niche.

Not proud of it but I made my semi-regular capitulation and went to look up what lordJVK is railing about on twitter these days; turns out he's on youtube railing about being banned from twitter.

He's, unsurprisingly, still an idiot.

First video "Is George W. Bush a radical leftist?"

Which is backed up by a tweet "It’s less a cultural revolution and more a revoking of the attempted one that was imposed on us from the top down by the New World Order led by the Bushes, Clintons and Tony Blair."

Remember when he first came here and claimed to be a liberal?

I'd rather listen to birdman drone on about communism than watch a single video from lolord

I'll be honest; I completely bought it for a little while.

Gotta love this weeks Elon Musk vs Warren Buffett jousting

Elon Musk on the Tesla earnings call made a jab at Warren Buffett calling moats around companies quaint and that to be successful companies need to innovate.

Then Buffett in his annual report said that the moats around See's Candy are holding just fine.

Just now I saw a tweet from Musk:

lololol

Well I for one am reassured that we've handed over running the developed world to this bunch of technofetish manchildren. What could possibly go wrong.

in the current pog draft game, i drafted obama as the goat serial killer. i probably should have consulted birdman before i picked

it's just that no other serial killer won the nobel peace prize. at least not that i could think of

i don't think jeff dahmer won the nobel peace prize
