  1. Not to put words in Molar's mouth here, but there is theoretically at least one way in which a state militia or state reserve could impede the state's national guard without directly conflicting with it (which seems to be functionally impossible in addition to being illegal). Using California as an example, many but not all Cal Guard members hold standing in the National Guard. If Cal Guard is deployed to do its thing before Trump decides to mobilize the National Guard, there is a potential for conflicting orders and some Cal Guard members who would be following only the governor. It's more of a technical than a practical issue, nonetheless Newsome could hamstring the military operating inside its own borders at least initially. It's uncharted territory so there's no real way of knowing what would happen if it were to come up. One other thing to bring up since Hogseth (oink oink) is an inompetent bigoted drunk - a state governor deploying his state's reserve guard necessitates the DoD actually following military protocol. In California (and presumably everywhere else the NG was deployed), DoD did not issue official orders prior to mobilization. I assume it was either a cheap tactic to show force either due to the questionable legal nature of the declared state of emergency, due to a lack of budget to pay deployed troops, or a combination of the two, but even if it was just an oversight bred by incompetence, it would further delay any federal command.
  2. You mean like Cal Guard facing off against the California National Guard?
  3. Fuck no. I do, inexplicably, have a commemorative world series pin set I purchased at Wrigley a few years back.
  4. Sorry, I meant Labor Day. And Autodraft it is.
  5. I was at the game. They looked good. Lot of Cubs fans.
  6. That is interesting. I didn’t realize there was a dietary component to declining bee populations.
  7. Starting to appreciate the whole necrobumping time stamp.
  8. Props to you, my friend.
  9. Too bad they don't still have that unlimited shrimp. That deal paid for itself.
  10. See, I would take her to Applebee's specifically so I don't have to have the wonderful night of carnal pleasure. One Really Big Meal Deal and she's exhausted for the night.
  11. There was a period after premium cable television became inundated with live professional sports events where pay-per-view made sense, but it was always intended to be a gateway to the content farming we have now. The new ESPN DTC streaming service is notable only in that it closes this particular arc.
  12. You could probably join yourself, you know.
  13. Crispy Jesus is also not pleased... Mostly because he misread the title and it interrupted his chicken dinner.
  14. This isn't intended to cure something the doesn't need to be cured. I think the point here is that it cures some of the more severe issues that arise from the condition.
  15. Hope all that running around gives him a heart attack.
  16. I mean, it's the least they can do, right? Sitting through an Adams press conference is bound to make a reporter utterly famished.
  17. She was paying for their parking. Really sweet of the Adams campaign.
  18. What's with all the ripples in the water? You all doing a classic swim in a thunderstorm?
  19. The license plates are not Californian, so I'm inclined to think this is a rando photoshop. It's kind of a small detail, but one a more polished campaign op would likely catch.
  20. Hey everybody. I would like to set up a draft date. Is the usual Memorial Day Weekend good? That's in two weekends.
  21. Pat, did you bolt through the spacers into wall studs?
  22. There's almost always an adapter of some sort that will work. Under most circumstances, the wall mount bracket is at least that deep so as to allow for some airflow being the television, which tends to get really hot. You can still plug in directly without the adapters, but eventually the pinch point will damage the cord.
