Our POTUS is an agent for Russia. At this point it is impossible to come to any other conclusion.14 points

Yeah, like I said, it’s political, and histrionically so, irrespective of whatever “it” is to a whole cast of you rubes. It isn’t to a still thankfully healthy chunk of us. I don’t give two fucks what you want to run over or side with when it comes to agendas. I was just hoping to read something beyond politics, and hilariously incorrect suppositions, about what the fuck happened and who did it, and you dorks couldn’t help yourselves. You guys are fucking pathetic. The whole lot of you who politicize news in either direction outside of the Cloak Room. It’s boring, mindless and unhelpful.12 points

Coe stole two songs from mama's friends -- he jacked the melody for "Field of Stone" from Townes Van Zandt and he just straight jacked "Piece of Wood and Steel" from Richard Dobson. So around that time my parents hosted a party and all those dudes -- TVZ, Dobson, Guy, (maybe) Earle, Steve Young, Coe, probably Billy Joe -- were there. Basically the cast of Heartworn Highways. And mama took the cover of Coe's current album and propped it up vertically against the toilet tank, so that all the dudes there were pissing on it all night long. (Intentionally wayward aim.) Coe didn't know why everybody was looking at him and laughing until he went in there to take a leak and saw his piss-stained album cover staring back at him. Poor Coe just wanted to be accepted, and thought he had really made it into the in crowd of the best young Nashville songwriters, but the thieving little shitheel did steal those songs, so fuck him.10 points

This seems a good example to show the difference between what conservatives call fake news and Fox News. Photographer takes picture of crying girl and mother stopped by Border Patrol, sees them loaded into van assuming they are to be separated. Turns out they weren't. Time acknowledges the error, as journalist organizations have done for as long as there's been journalism. It doesn't change the fact now accepted by virtually everyone that thousands of children were being separated from their parents. It's just that this wasn't one of them. Same issue. Ann Coulter goes on America's #1 source for news and claims the kids being separated from their parents are actually child actors and implores the president not to be swayed by their dramatics. No evidence. No corroboration. No later acknowledgement that further investigation has uncovered zero reasons to believe these children were putting on an act. No retraction. One is an error later clarified that does little to change the veracity of the larger story- that thousands of kids were being separated from their kids for misdemeanors or for seeking asylum. The other is an intentional unacknowledged falsehood meant to supplant the true story- that these are crisis actors staging a scene that's not really happening. https://thegrio.com/2018/06/23/time-magazine-forced-to-clarify-cover-of-crying-migrant-girl/ http://thehill.com/homenews/media/392774-ann-coulter-calls-immigrant-children-child-actors9 points

Oops, sock fail! Forgot which sock you were posting under, huh? So, you not only post under multiple socks, but you actually use them to defend your own moronic posts, to make people think that other posters agree with you? That is pathetic. I suppose the three random likes you got for this post from Chrispy, Enchubben, and blackmarketbaby are all you too?8 points

Meh, I’m good. Got my coffee and wvataburger biscuit, heading to meetings. I’m just amused that I live in a world where the guy who looks around and sees our president, his sycophants, and enablers, says loudly “WHAT THE FUCK?”....and I’m the crazy one. That, my friends, is good for a chuckle or two. Keep on pretending that things are fine. Whatever helps you sleep. I got the jalapeño cheddar biscuit, BTW, because you’d have to be insane not to.7 points

Come on guys, you're more sophisticated than that....recruiting can change on a dime, and I've stated repeatedly that there is no such thing as a LOCK. All I have ever said about Bru is that (according to knowledgeable sources) it would be a shock if Bru chose another college other than USC. All I'm reporting is what I heard. He really likes Texas. It will be difficult to pull him as of now, but that can change at any time. Following recruiting is big boy business, you have to be prepared for all it turns and curves. I'm reporting on the interest. I hate trolls, and have little patience for them, if you don't realize that by now, you haven't been paying attention. The only thing I attempt to provide is the SoCal slant, nothing more, nothing less.6 points

NGD Friday is here. A lot sooner than I thought it would be, but what the hell. Better pics to come later, but here's a sneak preview. First of all, never do any guitar dealin' on an empty stomach. And patience is a virtue. Although I still wonder if I could have gotten a little more off the price if I had waited a couple more weeks. But I got tired of screwing around. 2011 American Standard Tele, swapped pickguard and they had installed the N3 noiseless pickups. Just a few minor dings and blemishes upon close inspection, but it sure feels great in my hands. $800 out the door including the tweed case.5 points

TLJ is the worst of the Star Wars movies, by a mile. SW movies are about badassery. Episode 4 has Vader, and Peter “one swift strrroke” Cushing, and old Kenobi who’s not up to the task anymore but fuck it, why not. Episode 5 has Luke rising and Vader kicking his ass like the badass that he is. In Episode 6 it’s Luke, Vader and the Emperor. Now go back to Episode 1, Qui-Gon Jinn is a badass maverick Jedi, Maul kills him because he has little horns, and almost kills Kenobi not no. Episode 2 has more badass Kenobi, skilled but stupid Skywalker, and Christopher f’n Lee who fucking rules, and Yoda. Episode 3 has the rise of the Emperor, badass Kenobi, and Skywalker who’s now powerful and out of control. Fast forward to Episode 7, we have Kylo who’s pretty badass but kind of nuts, and Rey who holds her ground against him, and Snoke in the shadows who promises to be a evil as the Emperor. And then TLJ in which every character is a fucking pussy. No badassery at all. Snoke turns out to be useless. Kylo and Rey don’t kick any ass. Nobody kicks ass. Luke is a wasted, cowardly, bitchy old man. Everybody fucking sucks. The end.5 points

The City Manager will begin negotiating with PSV (item 130) while also accepting other proposals for the site (item 60) at the same time. The City Manager will report back to Council on August 9th at which time Council can get an update on negotiations/other proposals, extend the time for negotiations or approve a contract with PSV. On the whole, it's positive for MLS to Austin supporters, especially with 60 being watered down (added language to include soccer stadium in the solicitation for proposals).5 points

I’ve found myself thinking and saying this a lot lately, but it bears saying again - you need to seek some help, man. I’ve read you for long enough to know that something isn’t right with you these days. I think your estrogen levels are off the charts or maybe you have an undiagnosed brain tumor? I don’t know. I’m not a doctor, but I can spot an unhinged, emotional fruit loop when I see one, and, well, you fit the description these days. A guy cannot even aspire to visit the news board here without you fucking mewling, maudlin political fucksticks just shitting all over the current events topic with an agenda. It’s pathetic.5 points

Mojo- Your arguments about the popular vote and electoral college are sort of the epitome of Aggie. It is like Aggie arguing after the football game that they had more offensive yards and therefore they were the better team and should be considered the winner. You have absolutely no way of knowing who would have won the popular vote if that was the way the election was set up. The candidates would have campaigned differently. They would have rallied in different states. They would have spent their advertising money in different ways. How many Hillary supporters in Texas did not vote because they knew that Hillary would not win Texas? How many Trump supporters in California did the same thing? If you want to argue the popular vote should be the way we choose going forward, then that is a decent argument. But to suggest the will of the people was different than the outcome is just very flawed. The contest was not to get the most popular votes it was to get the most electoral votes and that was the goal of the candidates and that is what determined their campaign strategies.5 points

I don't care who was at fault. The ball hit the ground. OSU took advantage and the rest is CWS/baseball history. Screw those woo pig sooey, horns down throwing inbreds. Slim Shaddy, the right fielder, and the Deliverance banjo boy looking first baseman can own it for life.4 points

Last night my wife was talking about one of her co-workers being short/small and she said "well, she's "viet muh-knees". I chuckled and said "What?", because I thought she just got tongue-tied for a second. Nope, she doubled down on it. I laughed like a loon and it was not appreciated. She then claimed she said it correctly but I just wasn't listening "right". Viet Muh-knees! I'm still laughing.4 points

This is sooo typical of this place and all of you guys. The only reason there is even any kind of "smell test" is because, as usual, the media print a small part of the actual story and you guys just lap it up like dogs. Do you ever get tired of relying on half truths in the media to form opinions? Hugo asked what he posted that wasn't non-factual. Actually, almost everything that makes this look suspicious is un-factual. The only facts are 1) At one time Kennedy's son worked at De, and 2) Trump made development/construction loans with De during part of the time that Kennedy's son was there. That is it. Everything else being discussed is half truths and outright lies that are very easy to investigate. The biggest claim that is non-factual is this supposed claim that Kennedy's son was Trumps personal banker or something like that. It is a complete and total falsehood. Kennedy never made any construction/development loans and he never had any role in that side of the business. Kennedy was a trader. He traded in mortgage backed securities. Traders do not make loans. It is a completely different division of the bank. Kennedy had exactly zero input in any of the De loans to trump co. Zero. Trump started his relationship with De before Kennedy even worked there. Trump did have a relationship with a De banker and that was the guy that basically started the commercial real estate lending office in NY for De. Lots and lots of articles about it. The guy knew he was taking a risk on Trump but did it anyway. Your Citizens United point is incredibly stupid. Citizens United was decided in January of 2010. Kennedys son was long gone from De at that point and was running a small real estate investment firm that, according to the only records I could find, made exactly zero political contributions. Your point is absurd. Yes De was fined for money laundering related issues. From what I can tell they deserved to be. But the division in question was based in Moscow. Just like every single other big I Bank had offices there. De is a massive institution. This happened in 2017. Of course, Kennedy never worked on anything russian related or had any connection whatsoever to the russian division when he worked there and he had been gone from the company for 8 years when the fines were handed down.. It appears that Kennedy has a friendly relationship with the trump kids. That is neither unusual or surprising considering their backgrounds and work.4 points

I do not advocate for open borders. We should absolutely have checkpoints all over the place. Now, to be fair, what I think should happen at those checkpoints would probably outrage most of you, which is basically a biometric screening and intake that results in them leaving being registered with the government and holding a government-provided ID that allows them to legally be in the nation. And we should provide food, water, and shelter as necessary at those checkpoints. And full medical care.4 points

Damn. I actually gained some respect for Shelby for the way he handled the Roy Moore debacle even though he’s always been nothing but an opportunist with no true beliefs beyond what will benefit him. But fuck you in the ear, Senator Shelby for that traitorous line of whataboutism weak ass bullshit. What would your god, Ronald Reagan, say about you excusing Russia’s attack on our democracy? In short, fuck youuuuuuuuuu Senator Shelby.4 points

You guys have to read this article on Bru.....I know it's Bleacher Report, but Mike is a quality writer. SC guy (Mike) would eat with us at our tailgate on gamedays.

It's not similar to that at all. This isn't a weird conspiracy theory involving complex plans and various disparate actors. It's a white supremacist DHS worker flying his flag through a press release using language that would only be noticed by fellow white supremacists and anti-racist leftist that centrist spend their whole centrist lives yelling at. No far-reaching DHS Nazi conspiracy necessary. No complicity from higher-ups needed. Just a racist piece of shit working for the DHS being cute.4 points

I actually feel sorry for Arky. I really do. For a while, I didn't think that Arky had the best team, until they had won 4 straight. Then, last night, with two outs, and two strikes....they come within a strike or catching a pop fly from winning the national championship. They were soooooy close. That's what really stings. Then, the best team gets a super clutch hit to tie the game and another homer to win it...all the air went out of Arky, and you could just tell they came in flat tonight, and OSU had that extra something, and they got lights-out performances from their freshman pitcher and clutch hits. 20 straight outs by their pitcher and Arky never recovered. So, although I do not like Arky, I can't imagine how they will feel for the rest of their lives, knowing they were on the edge of their dugout, ready to go dog pile, only to let it get away. They did have a great team this year, actually the 2nd best.3 points
