  1. I saw him live in Dallas as part of the Oddball festival a while back and yeah, at that time, he sounded bitter, borderline depressed, and his punchlines were really subdued and just not very funy. It was really disapointing. His more recent Netflix stuff has been pretty good, although I still think he really misplayed the trans joke controversy, but not gonna rehash that here, I know I posted plenty on the other thread during that timeperiod.
  2. There's one party to the conflict that has not endorsed the plan, who could that possibly be, hmmmmm...........
  3. And how, pray tell, do you suggest the Democrats not "wear this" from the perspective of the American electorate? The lie is already spread far and wide that it's about healthcare for illegal immigrants. Did you hear that: "ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS." That's all they have to fucking say and the idiots fall for it, every fucking time. Nothing, literally nothing would change if the Democrats just caved and gave them everything they want without any good faith negotiations. I do agree they should be louder about their positions, but I have no illusions that it would change any minds, so fuck it all.
  4. Cool, we're still arguing as though there is some form of "messaging" the opposition party could use that would appeal to the shitheads infesting this country. The republican strategy for fifty fucking years was to vilify anyone who isn't a white, straight, cisgendred, christian male, or anyone who dares acknowledge the plight of these minorities. It worked. These people are okay with declaring war on American cities, stripping away all government safety nets, ensuring that the wealthiest pay no taxes, etc., etc., etc., because at least those transgendereds can't us the bathroom and anyone who speaks spanish is sent to the swamp gulag. If acting like adults and promoting better government policies on healthcare, education, immigration, diversity, etc., isn't enough, this country deserves what we get. This shithead and his regime never fall below 40% approval, and would still get 50%+ of a nationwide vote, because they have a license to be bigots and care zero, nothing at all, about policy. Sure there are things I'd prefer the Democratic party do differently, but I'm under no illusion that there is anything they can do within the confines of human dignity that would appeal to the masses in this shithole country. Anyone who thinks otherwise is fucking delusional.
  5. Or cave, again, being forced to be the grown ups. It’s worked so well this far, lol. Zero incentive to give an inch.
  6. The Mets blowing it again is a story I guess, haha. I have a soft spot for the Mets and hated to see them collapse like that.
  7. The general public can go fuck themselves.
  8. He only ever bitched and complained about it and it is known that he was on the bad side of several donors because of some of his public statements and refusal to engage in fundraising efforts. If we make the right hire I think there will finally be alignment and funding will open up.
  9. I recall from this history books such things as Military Coups and Juntas. It's time mother fuckers. What an absolute embarassing display from this administration. Just fucking pathetic. And not a word in Daily Texan, because criticizing calls for military targeting of American citizens on American soil and disregarding international rules of engagement is just too CR for them to handle in their safe space. Fuck everything.
  10. If he's smart he'll go into television. He's be good at it and people would tune in to listen. His ego may want to coach again but I can't think of any P4 program that would want him for the reasons stated, he's proven he can't and won't do NIL the right way and will only complain. I'm not sure his ego could handle G5 or FCS.
  11. Arky is just gonna hire Petrino, right? I mean they let him back on campus already, all is forgiven it seems.
  12. Holy shit, he seriously told a room full of top military officials to ignore rules of engagement? Is he referring to war crimes? My god, when will someone from within the "Grand" party stand up to these fucking maniacs! How can anyone vote for this? My brain, I just cannot comprehend what is happening right now.
  13. Literally declaring "war" on U.S. cities and authorizing "necessary force" (i.e., shooting U.S. civilians) should very much be unusually controversial.
  14. I remember when one Walton heir bought a basketball arena . . . for Mizzou . . . and named it after their daughter . . . who attended USC . . . and then got caught cheating. Still brings the lulz.
  15. Those Romo defenses were exactly what so many say about Dak and Romo. Feast on bad teams during the season and fold when it matters. Those defenses were dogshit in the playoffs. All of our defenses since '95 have been dogshit in the playoffs.
  16. My only shred of hope in this timeline is that this was called because military brass had said out loud that they’re getting sick of this shit and that this makes them double down ready to refuse orders and turn on him when he officially declares martial law and orders open fire on US civilians. Yeah I know that’s stupid, I just can’t imagine someone devoting their entire life to the military and just capitulating to these no serving disrespectful pieces of human garbage.
  17. This is exactly why they should refuse to negotiate and let it shut down. Until you can act like fucking adults you own this fucking shit.
  18. They should also say they won’t negotiate until the fucking president, his minions, and his congress act like civilized human beings. The fucking grade school rhetoric is tiring and why would anyone they keep mocking agree to assist in a single fucking thing? Who cares at this point, shut it the fuck down already.
  19. Just saw that Lashlee played at Arky, but I just don't see how that situation is better than SMU right now. Bigger stadium and crowds seems to be the sole advantage. SMU should be able to pay better and they've already shown support for NIL budgets. Arky would need way more commitment of funds for Arky to compete in the SEC. Lashlee has a pretty good situation it seems in the ACC.
  20. The flag on a sword is just fucking stupid. Who flies a flag on their sword? It's just too busy for a logo too.
  21. I never saw it if was confirmed, but it went around that Spencer Sanders wanted to return when he wasn't getting the attention he thought he would in the portal and Mike refused. I get the sentiment, but that's just not how it works anymore. I said it before, as I fan I can complain about missing the old days, but we need a coach who embraces this stuff, is fine if players test the waters, and who will either welcome them back if they want to return, or genuinely wish them well if they leave. The players have way more power these days and as much as I hate the ramifications for mid-tier programs like OSU, I can't really find a problem with the players who are the ones putting their bodies and brains on the line for the product having more power.
  22. AD Weiberg made clear we have the financial support to compete and I believe him. Mike had pissed off donors over many years, in part by refusing to meet with them (sorry coach but ass kissing for money is part of the job) and was just disagreeable to a lot of other people including regents and even his own coaching staff. Nobody will say it out loud but the impresssion I get is that we have donors willing to support NIL but not for Mike who only ever bitched about the new system. Saying that complaining fans were poor and stupid last year was probably the last straw (well second to last, being completely uncompetetive and losing to Tulsa was obviously the last straw). We'll see what financial support is available with the new coach. I don't see us being uniquely poorer in this new landscape than our Big 12 peers (Tech being the exception with Campbell). Like I said, we'll see.
  23. Republican voters will never ever ever blame King Orange or their Congress. It’s always the democrats fault. His instincts are spot on as always. We’re a stupid country who overwhelmingly elects shitheads. I say shut it the fuck down.
