It would be the largest seafood specific nationwide chain with comparatively little competition. It brings seafood to interior areas that wouldn't normally have a lot of options for seafood. But, that wouldn't be the point. The idea that a steakhouse might be a better option for a food is concerning for a couple of reasons. Steakhouses don't typically serve a full selection of fish - for the most part, they serve crab, lobster, shrimp on the regular menu, and, occasionally, a white fish as a special. Red Lobster losing market share to these guys would at the very least suggest that Americans have a more limited palate when it comes to the fruits of the ocean. Obviously, seafood is only a secondary option in a place that specializes in red meat, while it is the primary focus (for better or worse) of Red Lobster. Chances are you're not going to Black Angus to get a rubbery lobster tail, you're going to get an overcooked steak and the rubbery lobster tail is a side dish option if you're feeling a little adventurous... or your doctor told you you're eating too much red meat. None of this to suggest that Red Lobster is a great place to get seafood: it's mediocre at best. It just happens to be the best seafood option for people who don't have access to fresh seafood. People moving away from it in places where there are no other options pretty strongly suggest that seafood itself is less popular.

Not all of Israel, just Netanyahu's government.

Good thing kickers are easy to replace, because it looks like the Chiefs are in the market for one.

I find that genuinely disturbing because it suggests that Americans might be moving away from seafood as a staple in their diet.

In all seriousness, we don’t talk enough about extremism in Israel. They’re as much a threat to Jews around the world as Hamas is and its actors like Tsav 9 that put everyday Israeli citizens in an untenable situation.

These guys are Hamas, eh?

Alright alright, Raku... keep it in your pants until I can find Sponges thread and boost it.

Pretty super Greeny's grandpa doesn't give a shit about AI.

Ooooo…. A new champion has entered the lists. But, I’m too busy atm to dig up Sponges’ thread to respark the debate. Suffice to say that AI in the art world will never amount to much more than a clearinghouse for commercial artists.

Just goes to prove that AI is really only good at stealing other images.

I do.

Damn. Exactly my kind of people.

You shouldn’t diagnose someone by their appearance. Plenty of high functioning, well educated and driven adults suffer from crippling mental disease.

Sadly, this says more about mental health care than anything about crime. There are some legitimately scary things out there: people you know are otherwise good acting incoherent and distressed. LA’s Metro has had an uptick of violence against bus drivers that similarly follows no particular reason other than mentally ill people being left unchecked on the street.

Does Drake actually have fans? All I've seen up to this point is people enjoying him flail while Kendrick works him over.

The worst part is that he's almost universally beloved in NYC.

From your article: The implication is that the Israeli government should be getting all this information and either isn't listening to it or is to preoccupied to do anything with it. The article also points out that the Hamas leader isn't in the Rafah region, which begs the question: why is Israel focusing on that area?

We’re you able to see them?

Oh, gotcha. Nonetheless, it looks pretty impressive. I almost wish I had taken my DSLR and tripod with me, but I’m not sure it would have been much better.

Happy Birthday! I’ll put some old school Roosevelt in your EDM thread.

Took this tonight from Glenbrook, on the east shore of Lake Tahoe… That’s Cave Rock to the right.

That’s some good stuff. Seeing it in daylight is an all new look.

Well, that’s partially why I had to go to an 8,911 ft summit to see it. You can see the light pollution from downtown Reno at the bottom. Luckily, there weren’t any clouds at 10pm; there were passing over Lake Tahoe earlier in the day. I imagine a lot of people in the main band that cut across the country didn’t get to see it because of light pollution. We were at least 4-500 miles away from the edges it’s band, which is why a time lapse was needed to catch anything.

Has anyone else seen them?
