For me, 2pac was a better performing artist, and Biggie was a better rapper. Pac had better production (aka beats) to work with, and after attending a performing arts high school, was better at expressing himself artistically. He carried the movies he was in by basically playing himself, which speaks to how iconic his persona was. His lyrics are more accessible and enunciated too. Biggie's flow is so effortless and natural, but he was held back by puff daddy being so wack jumping in on his songs and videos. This is originally just Big L and Pac, but this remix adding a Biggie verse makes it even better with all three of the late 90s deceased rappers on one track.

Who was better, Biggie or Pac?

Hard to say, this is one of them and hardly anybody ever heard it. My first Google search ever was the lyrics to Got my mind made up to figure out what the censored words were: "sticking up ______with German _______"

My momma didn't raise no fool!

Fair enough. The societal upside to legalization outweighs the increased amount of stoned drivers on the road, though, in my opinion. Where I live it's legalized (after being decrminalized in the 70's), and the amount of accidents doesn't deviate from the national average, for what that's worth.

If the ability to detect weed scent in cars is easy, and consuming while driving is so problematic and prevalent, then we should be hearing more about stoned driving being an epidemic. Are these cars in which you smell it damaged?

I said equating weed with alcohol is not the right perspective. And I don't think fear of stoned drivers should prevent legalization.

Let me guess, you're opposed to legalization.

They get jealous when they see you with your mobile phone...

Have you actually tried weed? Equating it with alcohol suggests you haven't. Driving stoned isn't anything like driving drunk.

This is my belief too. Weed gummies instead of painkillers would work for a lot of situations.

How about we legalize weed and stop over-prescribing painkillers. Seems a lot easier.

Florida latinos are largely Cuban and fervently anti-communist. AZ and NM are not.

Pretty sure QAnon is the future of the GOP. Pence and co are grifting while simultaneously playing the long game. Respect the hustle, hate the hustler.

Pence and some hanger-ons attending a fundraiser in Bozeman hosted by QAnon freakshows. Just an embarrassment to the country.

The original run was incredible. Shouldn't have rebooted though. Also it's too bad Phil Hartman couldn't voice Zapp as originally intended.

The source is a chump is my point. If I shared Charlotte Clymer or some other equivalent on the left it would be greeted similarly.

Hard to pick the best example of that dude making a fool of himself, but here's one of them. Milo Yanno-whatever had him write for his website in a section called incel corner.

Younger me had my opinion of the Nobel Prizes shaped by Futurama: Prof. Farnsworth: It's a little experiment that might win me the Nobel Prize. Leela: In what field? Prof. Farnsworth: I don't care; they all pay the same.

The Athletic is running through every team's top prospects/rookies, and had this to say about our future Senators: Shane Pinto, C, North Dakota-NCHC Nov. 12, 2000 | 6-foot-3 | 194 pounds Tier: Legit NHL player Skating: 50 Puck Skills: 55 Physical Game: 60 Hockey Sense: 60 Pinto had a great season. He was a top player for one of the best teams in college hockey, and was one of the best players on USA’s U20 team. Pinto accomplishes a lot, but he’s not going to jump off the page when you watch him. He’s got a clean stride but lacks explosiveness. He has very good skill but it doesn’t show consistently. Pinto’s game is driven by his intelligence and competitiveness. He makes a lot of clever and creative plays with the puck. Pinto isn’t going to go end-to-end but his playmaking can look high-end. He is great playing in the slot and in front of the net. “He owns the middle third of the ice” said one NHL scout. He competes well for space and loose pucks and projects as a two-way center at the pro level. Jacob Bernard-Docker, D, North Dakota-NCHC June 20, 2000 | 6-foot-1 | 194 pounds Tier: Legit NHL player Skating: 55 Puck Skills: 55 Physical Game: 45 Hockey Sense: 60 Bernard-Docker played big minutes for North Dakota and for Canada’s U20 team on their path to a gold medal. He’s not a flashy player, but does a lot of things well. Bernard-Docker is a mobile defenseman. He can get up into attacks with men, and has the ability to close gaps efficiently. His skill doesn’t pop, but he moves pucks at a high level, especially on his exits. Due to his great first pass and feet, his transition game is excellent and the puck isn’t in his zone for long. Offensively he lacks flair but he has a good stick and a shot that can beat goalies when he gets it through.

Didn't Republicans control Congress for a while during his term?

He hasn't done anything for infrastructure, which is what I was most excited about from his campaign. Promise broken.

Seems like balkanization is the one topic where everyone here is on the same page!

The concept started in the 80s with the book Nine Nations of North America, and has been revisited a bunch recently: https://www.businessinsider.com/the-11-nations-of-the-united-states-2015-7

Missoula just added direct flights to a bunch of new cities in CA (SD, SJ, SF), and Bozeman will soon have 6(!) airlines fighting over direct to LAX. Telecommuters are moving in droves.
