  1. 400,000 killed and wounded per year over the last two years seems bad.
  2. Well, just make sure and tell them “I’m sure glad you wouldn’t vote for people who cover up for pedophiles trafficking kids for sex but somebody voted for them and somebody watches Fox News covering up the lies and trafficking.” Toss in a comment about the GOP standing for “Guardians of Pedophiles” and how Ronald Reagan and Dwight Eisenhower and Abraham Lincoln are rolling in their graves over what the GOP has become.
  3. Austin Ice Bats (RIP *sniff*) used to crank this during fights and sometimes this
  4. It instantly gives them +8 dexterity and +10 hit points. But also -30 charisma, so there is a trade-off.
  5. Catholics. TwiceHorn left out the fucking bog jumpers.
  6. Russian generals tomorrow.
  7. He’s clearly so miserable it’s hilarious.
  8. More on the Ukrainians retaking it. Putin was trying to use it as background leverage in the peace talks, like “you better give us what we want because we continue taking your land” and if this holds up, it’s going to be fucking huge in the coming weeks and months. Russian sources are widely confirming the loss of the terrorist army’s control over the city of Kupiansk a month after Putin claimed it was taken. A lengthy analytical piece was published by Rybar, awkwardly titled “Problems near Kupiansk”. The layout can be seen in the screenshot. Some Russian sources are even more blunt, while security-service-curated million-subscriber channels, on the contrary, are trying to tone down the negativity.
  9. "Russia and we are like two boxers in the 12th round." - Biletskyi, commander of the 3rd Army Corps. He notes that for the first time, the Russian army is failing to replenish its losses - more soldiers are being knocked out than new ones are arriving. Furthermore, they face a catastrophic situation regarding weaponry, including armored vehicles, artillery systems, and other equipment. Footage of the destruction of a Russian assault column near Dobropillia by the 1st Separate Assault Regiment. The state of the equipment is worth noting: these no longer even resemble tanks - they are true Frankensteins, crudely welded together by their crews, only to be dismantled piece by piece by FPV drones. A genuinely desperate army.
  10. We really need to appreciate the fact that there is a war within TPUSA and the far right of the GOP in general, over whether to hate the Jews/Israel or support them. And the people who hate the Jews really hate the Jews, and Tucker is happy to give them a platform, and Shapiro is happy to go after them. This is a gift that will keep on giving throughout next year (along with Epstein) as both sides ramp up their attacks.
  11. It’s Surly so I imagined this going in a completely different and horrific direction. i can’t imagine what those men witnessed, but I bet they appreciated what you all were trying to do for them.
  12. Something is way off. We’ve stayed near Dennison, Broken Arrow (Oklahoma), and NE Arkansas this week, and the amount of Trump flags/banners/posters/stickers etc. is way the hell down compared to a year ago after the election when we made the same trip, and I’ve been looking. Oh I’ve been looking But I’m am in mostly rural areas, heavy into agriculture and exports (Port of Catoosa near Tulsa is a foreign trade zone). It’s easy to say it’s not a campaign year in 2025, but that would mean that people were actively removing flags, signs, stickers, etc. after the election and I don’t recall that in 2017 or 2021. Nor do I think it’s a matter of him being term-limited so they see no point in leaving that shit up. I remember a lot of Trump stuff sticking around long after 2016 and 2020. People put that stuff up not because they thought it would help him win, but because they wanted you to know that they supported him, whether you were a Trump supporter (and therefore you and they were good people) or a never-Trumper (and therefore fuck you). And I’m not hearing him come up in conversations, unlike in the past where it would sometimes come up in family get-togethers. Hell, me hating him was well-known in 2016 and relatives would deliberately want to talk political shit. Not anymore. I don’t think any of them are doing this because after 9 years they suddenly don’t want to talk politics with me because they are being nice or it’s the holidays. It could very well be they are afraid of me bringing up Epstein, but that doesn’t explain the lack of Trump paraphernalia we are seeing on our trip, but I do think the Epstein stuff has chilled some of them. I think for others DOGE and the tariffs created a lot of problems.
  13. They love their woodworking and quilting and cooking shows on there. That and nothing embarrassing about Trump will be on there.
  14. Only took 50 years for the official video
  15. Tell me you’re not hanging out with relatives who insist on adding beans to chili, without telling me you’re not hanging out with relatives who insist on adding beans to chili.
  16. Saw billboards for Don Huffines north of Dallas. All it said was: Huffines for Comptroller MAGA TRUMP REPUBLICAN
  17. Eating dinner at a relative’s and they had one of the broadcast networks running as we are about to sit down, and I think it was NBC and it comes blaring on about even more Epstein documents, and one of the younger kids asked who Jeffrey Epstein was, lol. Channel got changed to PBS Create. Nobody denounced it as fake news or anything, so there’s that.
