  1. Any Trumpkins still left won't though, especially after he testifies against Trump. Fingers crossed, Kemp as the nominee divides them further. The best chance for America to survive is for the GOP/GQP to fully cleave in two.
  2. You are fucking the angel Moron-I? An imaginary character from Joseph Smith's Bible fanfic? Jesus and Jews in America and now an angel that comes back to fuck older lawyer gentlemen in Florida? Man, that book has everything.
  3. What's the number of 100 straight for Austin up to now? This remains the only "reasonably good" burger McDonald's has ever had.
  4. Grassley knew in advance. He was planning on Pence being gone and planning that he (Grassley) would be presiding over the Electoral College certification, rather than Pence. https://nypost.com/2021/01/05/sen-grassley-implies-that-he-will-handle-electoral-certification/
  5. JFC, seriously. It's bad enough we have to rehash the fucking Hillary bullshit on a regular basis. We don't need multiple pages of fucking engineering chat. Sees GA grand jurors doxxed, sees thread bumped, goes to see discussion of it, sees 4 pages of whether engineers are conservative or not. Waiting until they can change it to "45 indicted 45 times".
  6. Elon and Zuck probably want the fight to be in a prominent cultural place most of us don't want to see destroyed. That will prevent quite a few people from rooting for the asteroid. I'm team asteroid anyway. #wecanrebuildit

  8. Very well said. I have 1 point to add. A significant percentage of them don't give a fuck about long term, because Jesus is coming back any day now to magically fix everything. He's 2000 years over due, which means it'll probably happen really soon now and none of this will matter, but we should probably start a cataclysmic war in the Middle East to make sure. The Lord helps those who help themselves.
  9. If we just gave him a gun, he wouldn't have to try to make phone calls to get one. Sure, it increases the chances of him becoming a school shooter, but if we also gave everyone at the school a gun, it would give someone a chance to be a hero and that's good for the kids' self-esteem. Won't someone think of the children?
  10. Hey, I'm being positive here. I gave them a potential solution.
  11. The do something about it. Wagner showed the road to Moscow is wiiiiiiide open. Go defend your Motherland by ending Putin's abuse of it. If not, feed your family with the shrapnel they'll pull out of your corpse.
  12. You likely won't succeed, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try. Some rare instances have worked, so it's worth a shot. Just don't blame yourself if it fails, because it probably will. The root cause of the problem is, you are dealing with a world of facts, while they are dealing with a world of feelings. You can point as many facts out as you want, but they will override those facts with what they want to be true. If you point out too many facts, they'll get mad, because you are challenging the lies that have constructed the world view they want to be in. Then, as soon as the conversation with you ends, they will go right back to mainlining right wing lies straight into their veins, because that makes them feel good. It's really hard to compete with the firehose of lies they eagerly consume.
  13. Have already heard about this from the avid right wing media consumer in my life. Apparently only Hidalgo can declare an emergency if something happens in Houston and she's putting the entire city at risk, because she cannot delegate the authority to declare an emergency. I'm assuming that's bullshit, but even if it's not, it could be worked out. She's in treatment for depression, it's not like she'll be sedated on thorazine for a month. They also mentioned Hidalgo is under investigation, which I am assuming is also bullshit, but does anyone know what they are talking about?
  14. Earth has also had multiple ages with no ice. It's not an end point we want to fuck around with. Drive any direction from Austin and all you're going to see geologically is limestone and dolomite from the Cretaceous when the entirety of Texas was underwater. Even if we aren't the only cause of the Earth getting hotter, we would be wise to get our portion of the warming as close to zero as possible. We won't do anything about it though and the consequences are going to fall mostly on the states that prevent us from doing anything.
  15. The perfect video to describe the fail fest Russian war efforts does not exi...... That's the sanctioned SIG oil tanker Ukraine just hit with the water drone.
  16. I know of at least one additional person that purchased it, thinking it was from Texas. They were not happy when I showed them it was from NC. Damages would only be $2-3 and some disappointment though.
  17. Elon is the king of making ridiculous promises he has no intention of even trying to honor. They aren't getting paid at the end of July either. Some of the more provocative assholes might, but Elon can't pay his other bills, or a building permit fee apparently. The bulk of them will get...
  18. Bully asshole that has brutally attacked everyone around them for centuries wonders aloud why no one likes them. It's quite the mystery.
  19. How much longer until they rename the homepage The Eagle's Nest, or Kehlsteinhaus ?
  20. Belarus invents new type of self-propelled gun, the inertial howitzer. Just one of many things Mark Hertling nailed.
