  1. Those aren't all young people. The return to the 50s group are geriatrics and the gravy seals aren't doing squat for any duration of time. Aside from intimidating, most of them want to commiserate at the Cracker Barrel at the beginning and end of the day. I know that they create their own realities, but playing army takes work and they're where they're at because they mostly put themselves there. The real people that lose out in the argument of the unjust are the minorities and women, and they're the ones with the most to lose.
  2. If true, they've been growing for awhile now. Instead, they're the biggest shrub in the forest.
  3. Same as it ever was. They're always in that Texas shadow until they win something, and since that's not happening, then the Longhorns are their championship.
  4. Right--like they beat somebody.
  5. Georgia's no South Carolina something, something and more something stupid.
  6. Yup, and erebody knows Reed is going to jet when pressured.
  7. Ag playoff dreams getting blown up right now. aggiestadiumimplosion.gif
  8. Those ag bitches aren't much of anything away from home.
  9. Either 15 yard grounding or a fumble--take your pick.
  10. Them aggs are tackling machines--just laid down there.
  11. Just screening Aggie to death. My, how the lowly have flatlined. Weren't there some lil ag bitches talking about how the Longhorns barely beat Vandy?
  12. The bolded is spot on, except that I'd add that there's even a higher cost that they're willing to lose but fail to see in their alternate realities--friends and family, because a war would cost them the lives of these people too. They're lunatics.
  13. Teach a class at a solid Christian school, to put it mildly. I always say, if you want the youth to take a different stance, give them a solid dose of whatever you’re preaching. They asked if I voted. I said yes but we don’t talk politics in class. They then commenced to talking to each other about how they’re all cancelling out their parents votes back in Florida, Texas and wherever they’re from. Can’t help but smile. Hopefully things don’t get worse for them.
  14. Done. Walked in and voted electronically and walked out. Took 5 minutes max. Still not crazy about the Maryland flag.
  15. At this point, it's deliberate. There's no other explanation. It's there to get it right, and they said fuck it.
  16. Coach needs to get ejected so the NFL has to answer for why he got tossed on a godawful blown call.
  17. Should replay that on the stadium Jumbotron so everybody can see a wide open ref fuck up.
  18. All face mask and nothing but the face mask. What are we doing here?
  19. In regard to the Muslims, the decisions are vote to wait and see and the other orange one is get fucked immediately.
  20. One big influence: https://americanart.si.edu/artwork/throne-third-heaven-nations-millennium-general-assembly-9897
  21. Thanks RDC, it's been a journey. I paint a lot of simpler stuff in between because these are a lot to do-andI get the occasional portrait commission or painting sale. But this whole thing is a story called Floodland or something I'm working on--the scale kind of emulates a modern flood path when all put together. A lot of this stuff is from river cleanups and just discarded by the side of the road--like cultural refuse or artifact discards of modern civilization. We live in a flood zone so the marks on the wall, blah, blah. I can send you the text. But these are basically all also items of a broken escape as well--as in we're stuck in our own mess. I probably could have also put this in the I'm digging a hole tab.
  22. Been working on this painting the last few nights, and for awhile now. Part of a series that I’ll pitch for a show. One of nine, each almost six feet by six feet. Some people like fancy cars, and I like painting, and a dc studio in an old factory. Not my day job, or the class I teach in the evenings, but I get to this in my time, late night, after the wife goes to sleep. I’ve done a lot of writing for the work, but want to hear comments. The floor isn’t finished. All nine paintings are almost all together 50 feet with no spacing between.
  23. This is really how you imagine anyone envisioned her appearance? Why stop with Herman? Throw in a mutated Herman, Charlie Strong and Mack Brown, flipping everybody double birds with like 6 arms. Cool, yeah. And Palestine thrown in to boot--bravo. Keep it going, because Palestine and don't appear on fox are totally similar. But sure, for the strong Sydney take--who are these Independents that watch Fox and listen to Trump spew hatred on the regular in incomplete sentences and made up words for strong, teary eyed men? You do know that there's a mountain of shitty things spewed daily by Trump himself, in front of town halls, live television, in court records, at rally's--that's the brand and they stormed the capitol on every channel. He doesn't hide his animosity and it gets played on Fox, constantly. Who are these independents that watch this insanity and then think, ok, now let's hear her views? Why would they watch Fox and nothing else? That's not an independent. They choose to listen to a man spew hatred on a channel that sells outrage. How is that meeting them halfway--they didn't go anywhere, they're built in and the regular audience goes back to its regular programming, which we all agree is brainwashing, but also a choice. And I don't expect those regular viewing numbers to change one iota post interview. She's super brave, though, but we knew that from her DEA days, and all the other millions of clips already in existence. Plus Pete and Walz already provide a constant feed of great sound bites on Fox. I've always stated I think she'll win. The popular vote has gone to Democrats for awhile now, and this will too--by millions. But this is the really important part for me-- I don't want Fox to make one dollar off her appearance--not in ad space, not in legitimacy, not in eyeballs going forward. This also brings attention to their network. Y'all claim it's all positive for her but they win from this too--they're mostly in it for the money. They win both ways. It's like a scenario from the Chocolate War. I think she speaks to the choir at this point--others are just looking for an excuse qualifying not voting for her. And I didn't want her to provide them one having a human moment on a hostile station. That was it, and it didn't involve one flipping of the "bird" or whatever fantasy you enjoyed. And if your daughter's and all our futures hinge on an interview on Fox, god help us. But she did great yet again, and it didn't hurt her. Add it to the terabytes of footage already available. I understand she may have made some converts. It's just really hard for me to grasp that those converts could stomach him regularly, but now see the light. I realize I'm out of touch with that population segment since high school. And yes, I think Independents are dumb fucks for hanging out with a bunch of fascists and not knowing it. Disclaimer for the late post, but I don't know if I got banned or if the site got banned from the university, or everywhere I was trying to access it from in DC--that's probably for IT. You can now go back to your bizarre ass dream sequences, but stop using logic in arguments about Trump. Neither he, nor his followers apply it.
  24. Actually, I wish he were saying potato instead of I’ll pick up everybody that opposes me. But maybe she sounded great.
  25. Great. Did she sound articulate, quick on her feet and thoughtful? I bet she did. All the while he’s outside screaming potato, but it’s important to reach these people and somehow get them to actually hear her, which they’ve been actively avoiding. He’ll still scream potato while the media talks about his love for the quality vegetables from labor and knowledge of cultivation—a real man of the earth and pro farmer. It’s almost like the media does his talking for him. She can interview wherever, different rules man. But maybe she can convince a few that she’s not scary or looking to destroy their teetering livelihood of bad decisions. Whatever, a simple interview on any media can give them that same insight. How many Aggie minds do you think she changed? How about west Texas types? Independents that can actually stomach Fox? Based on nothing, I’d guess that liberals watching specifically to see how she’d do is a large part of that audience. Few come away from almost voting for a cult with whew, till that Fox interview I was going to vote for potato.
