Yeah, the whole family is upgrading phones and ipads this holidays before January 20.

I don;t want to oversimplify it, but one must always remember that Trump is a dolt when it comes to business. So it stands to reason he has zero understanding of tariffs.

Whelp, any of you fellas that invested in southeast pine forest land, you’re prolly feeling pretty good today.

Old FUPM in fine form, daring UNC to fire him. He's ready to coach em up, https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/columnist/dan-wolken/2024/11/24/college-football-misery-index-north-carolina-week-13/76539464007/ Jesus he's a POS. I know they'll be some who will want to do something for him here once he finally retires, but I hope there will be the testicular fortitude just to ice him out.

I'm pretty sure Congress passed a bill that prevents the President from pulling out of NATO, without Senate/Congressional approval. Doesn't mean he'll defend the Baltics, but he no longer has the unilateral authority to pull out. If anything is going to save our participation in NATO it's going to be sweet talk from the Poles to Trump and the next Germany leader getting on their knees and getting to work on Trump.

We had coed bathrooms at Bates in the early-mid 90s. I had a crush on a girl down the hall, so I took all my shits a floor up for a semester until we hooked up and I decided I didn't really like her all that much. Also, as an aside: Going to a 1500 person school and running into all your exes and hook ups every day in the main dining hall will build some emotional fortitude.....or it will cause you to have a complete mental break and send you to the secondary dining room aka "The Tool Shed"

I'm not trying the CR this thread, but this Administration often gets to the right decision, but always late and with the maximum amount of incompetence along the way. Sigh.

Was it Jim Jefferies who pointed out the absurdity of an AR-15 protecting you from the government: you are bringing a gun to a drone fight.

The staff are mostly miserable. It’s easy to rant and rave about draining the swamp and tearing shit down, but it’s actually a complex and difficult thing to run the world’s largest economy/military/bureacracy. It’s like running an air craft carrier with a crazy half drunk person in the captains chair (and I don’t mean Trump). There’s a lot of cogs in the machine between there and the propeller shaft, in a human sense and you want them to do their job right so the crazy drunk captain gets what they ordered. It’s exhausting and hard and the pay is not great.

Not fun for me, I’m at the game, but I guess I get the experience of seeing Whisky rush the field.

Unfortunately, I have to follow this shit for a living, but the moment I retire, I’m out. I want to live like most of America and stop caring about this crap.

I’ll try to do it in the AM. The big take away is Cronyn is calling for the release of records. Combined with Blanche being named deputy AG, kinda looks like they did Johnson a solid and rid him of his Gaetz problem.

Holy shit, they totally tricked him into resigning his seat. I think Susie Wiles just capped Matt Gaetz. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/14/us/lawmakers-demand-ethics-report-gaetz.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

So many resumes touting “leadership”
