  1. They view that as a guaranteed loss based on their interactions with the President and internal polling data. Maybe they are right, maybe they are wrong. I don't know. Neither do you.
  2. Never has so much been shouldered by so few brain worms.
  3. I’m sure they did and received unsatisfactory answers like, “We just have to keep the President on life support until the end of January.”
  4. Republicans: My candidate could shoot someone on 5th avenue and I'd still vote for them! Democrats: My candidate is brain dead and sprawled out on 5th avenue, and I'm still going to vote for them! 50% of Americans who identify as neither:
  5. Jesus and satan. It happens :shrug:
  6. He'll be ok until he starts calling Jill Melania in bed.
  7. Can we get a different source for corroboration?
  8. Uh, did that really just happen?
  9. It's the post coital weeping that's a turn off, isn't it?
  10. It's not about appealing to Melania. It's about leveraging Trump's misogyny to get him to do what you want. Put him in a situation where he has to debate or look weak and unmasculine, he'll debate.
  11. It needs to be Kamala and she needs to be like Andy Kauffman to Jerry Lawler. “I challenged Trump to a debate, but he won’t debate me. I guess he’s scared of a black woman. I figured he’d be man enough to show up and fight for his constituents, but I guess he’s not. Anyway, since Trump is too scared to debate me, here are some recent quotes from him and my responses. Finally, it’s an open offer, Donald. If you can get Melania to release your balls from her purse, let’s do it.”
  12. It’s called circling the wagons.
  13. I think its a matter of when not if at this point.
  14. Don't you dare forget about our deal, @Nicole44
  15. Trump does one thing well. Destroy what he touches. The base and machine behind him don't care about his BS not because they are stupid. Its because they are people who look at someone like Timothy McVeigh and think, "Well, he's got a point." Trump has more than exceeded their wildest expectations as a hatchet man for the government. They are not looking for the level headed stewardship of a wise man. They want the destructiveness of a petulant and entitled child that has been denied their desires and who has been infused with the power of the Presidency. Anyone not wanting that is scared shitless looking at the decrepit old man being trotted out to stop it.
  16. Can she be on the ticket as a VP? Or does she have to be P? Not necessarily advocating for one or the other, just curious what options there are.
  17. Dunno about the 25th amendment bit, but the above is spot on. Joe Biden is 7 years older than the average life expectancy of a white male in the U.S. The curve of decline for people at that age is exponential, not linear.
  18. I had a helix for awhile and felt it was really good. I think the AxeFX is better, but significantly more expensive. My current favorite that I am using on my board is a Tonex pedal with Amalgam amp+cab captures. $399 and then about $15-$20 per amp you want to buy a capture for from Amalgam. That is significantly cheaper than the Helix and AxeFX but it's pretty much just amp and cab simulation. There are free captures and a community sharing service, but that's a very mixed bag in terms of quality. The interface on the pedal is good, the app used to find and load captures onto the pedal are a weak spot. More of a pain in the ass to navigate, search, manage than it needs to be. I'm currently using a capture of a Dr Z AC80 and it sounds and responds really well. Below is a video demo of it with good sound quality from the amalgam site. https://video.wixstatic.com/video/a319e2_0dbde6e3b2a14a83944933d8e8808554/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 As alluded to, it's not a full rig pedalboard emulator like the helix or axefx, though. You have amp and cab, and a noise gate, compressor and a meh reverb but nothing else. So it's more of an amp-in-a-pedal thing where you build a traditional pedalboard around it vs an all in one solution. The current state of my board with the tonex serving as my amp/cab and the chain going guitar -> ultraviolet -> D&M drive -> Tonex -> Deco. Everything to this point is mono. Fro. there its stereo. Deco -> Terraform (modulation) -> Nemesis (delay) -> Ventris (reverb) -> Infinity 2 looper. It sounds so good hearing everything in stereo. It's very easy to gig or record with. Live, I just take my pedalboard and plug into PA. Recording, I just go stereo out to an interface. I don't have to deal with issues with non-deterministic mic placement or phasing or a bad room or whatever. Its the sweet spot for me and what I'm doing. What's an amp, a pedal, hardware and software is all getting very blurry. I don
  19. Stopping AI powered bot farms is going to be like trying to eradicate the mosquito.
  20. Yep, that's her. Tits as googly as her eyes.
  21. Lol, I did? Where? Removing an incumbent candidate from the ballot is a smart political play when that candidate can no longer carry on the fight, and that's especially true in this election when this may be the last fight. What happens in a boxing match when one fighter can't leave their corner and continue to box? Do judges award them a championship belt because of how they performed in their last fight? I understand you are scared, but you are no more or less a political strategist than anyone else posting their opinions here. There are plenty of people more qualified than you that disagree with you. And plenty that disagree with me, too. But, the more qualified people urging me to be calm and rally behind Biden are the same people that steered the Democratic party into this position, so sorry, I have very little faith in what they and you have to say about the right thing to do now.
