  1. But only 7.3% of South Africa.
  2. Trump hates liberty!
  3. The dual risk of ear infections and hepatitis?
  4. AOC? The conservative media has a massive part of the population thinking she's the antichrist. Her (brown assertive woman) getting beat would only make them more popular.
  5. Is there any estimate on how many government adjacent jobs would be lost with a huge cut to the federal workforce?
  6. When did Paradox buy the Civ IP? I already spend all my money on their DLC.
  7. Weirdly enough my nightly viewings of old Yale history lectures and BBC Shakespeare productions only go up by like 1 or 2 views a day. There must be some problem with their counting system.
  8. How did you handle Lake Brazos? I took sailing on that stretch in college, and we had to capsize on purpose to learn to recover and everyone ended up covered in fire ants from the 10 minutes we were in the water.
  9. Man I wanted some property in the UC, sigh.... Also is Foundation like a modern Banished? That's right up my alley if so.
  10. Well to be fair, so was the artist.
  11. Probably some kale while watching To Kill A Mockingbird on TCM. I'm just kidding (about the kale part anyway), I'll probably grill something though I have grilled pollo rojo, pork chops, and NY strips this week for dinner with the weather being nice, so I'm not sure what we'll be in the mood for on Sunday. Growing up with there being 5 of us we laid out a buffet that felt like heaven for a 12 year old. A spread of bagel bites, chicken nuggets, pretzels, goldfish, wings, fruit, candy, etc... It was a white trash smorgasbord.
  12. Man some SpongeBob after surgery really does take the edge off
  13. What a paragraph "Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on social media that he would not attend a meeting of foreign ministers from the Group of 20 in South Africa later this month, days after President Trump made false claims about land seizures in the country. Rubio cited what he called South Africa’s focus on diversity, equity and inclusion, and climate change."
  14. https://www.clarin.com/deportes/hermano-sebastian-driussi-atacado-trapitos-hablo-padre-relato-brutal-agresion-pudo-producirle-muerte_0_7VZrNVgYQS.html Jesus
  15. Baylor has this nonsensical saying about our basketball players that were killed in a bus train accident 100 years ago and it really applies here. "For they are the we of us" It's us, it's our fault. We picked 'em and we continue to pick 'em. Something is rotten in the United States and the elected officials are just rot personified.
  16. First half was...not good, but hey 1-1 looks nice and FCito had some dudes play. As always nothing to take from preseason.
  17. Yeah, but it was different. Trump's base is almost Jacksonian compared to Reagan's. As far as power, it seems that the 1% being the traditional GOP power brokers has been replaced by the .0000001%.
  18. He is anti-GOP establishment in that they don't control him anymore, if they ever did. Those that do influence him, like Musk, are not part of the traditional country club GOP. The rest of your post is 100% correct. The billionaires and evangelicals are in control. Online we talk a lot of shit about billionaires, but corporatist America has promoted greed and money as the ultimate good for a long time so they're people to admire. The evangelical influence over the nation is always there. Their power comes and goes historically and we're getting a good buttfucking from their rise right now (but we can't enjoy it!).
  19. Correct, the people are mad that their lives suck (I don't know why that is) and want people to suffer for it. One easy way is to elect the man who will burn it down starting with those that are different.
  20. @skittlebrau 3rd kit option is obviously Austin Ice Bats themed.
  21. At this rate Trump's Library will look something like the new Universal theme park. I was thinking that he'd just pocket the money, but MAGA World would probably make him more money. Well, as long as he doesn't run it himself.
