I said eliminate the filibuster…
-
I was thinking 2028, but you can override the guy with big enough majorities or yanking the filibuster.
-
Well, I'm of the Brisket school of thought these days. That being said, the shit I mentioned in my post is literally fucking table stakes for a functioning democracy.

If there's a win that large, and the D's take control of the senate, they need to abolish the filibuster, cram home Biden's voting rights bill, statehood for DC and Puerto Rico, reform the supreme court, push an amendment to take the money out of politics/revoke citizens united, and enact serious, serious standards for news networks and social media in regards to reporting and moderation, respectively. And maybe consider some anti-trust suits against oligarchs owning all of our fucking media. And that's the first week. Everything after that needs to be in relation to lowering prices for Americans and creating jobs. We do that, and this country might have a chance to limp on in some recognizable form.

Soup, Stew, Chili, Gumbo (Cold weather eats)
SydneyCarton replied to Etexhorn13's topic in Food and Travel
I get wanting to escape Texas, but...Ohio? "Florida but cold" is a strange choice to me. There's a whole Chili thread, and plenty of championship style recipes and tips in there. Why the fuck is Ronald Reagan on the cover of a box titled "Texas chili?" -
Season one was like 6 episodes or some shit, and was an entirely different show.

The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
SydneyCarton replied to Horn Dog's topic in Cloak Room
I'm sure Chainsaw and MC Fresh Breath have a very logical and thoughtful defense of the Dearborn Caucus's past behavior, as well as their continued tamper-throwing and blaming of Democrats. -
There's bad takes. And then there's this shit that's so bad that GreenspointTexas thinks you're off-base.

Tourism isn't a big economic driver in this country at all...

Charlie Kirk assassinated at an event in Utah (by a 22 YO groyper)

Youth Minister's (and other pervs) Thread of Shame
SydneyCarton replied to tx 3 putt's topic in Daily Texan
It's not the family that runs my church's fault that rape and sexual assault keep getting covered up, and child porn keeps showing up in the hands of people we entrust our children to...it's just random! Right. Here's the bottom fucking line: child predators go to the place where children are, and where they have the best chances to use power and influence to shame children into silence. That environment is compounded when, say, an institution like the SBC or Catholic Church and high level church administration have a vested interest in covering up said crimes. Which makes it INCUMBENT on a institution that claims to give a fuck about children, and which makes fucking massive piles of tax free revenue every year, to conduct proper background checks and pay the money to hire actual employees, or truly research into the references of volunteers, and make sure they get this shit fucking right. Any when they don't, over decades, it's a systemic failure. One might argue it's a conscious choice. Where does the buck stop at Second Baptist after repeated controversies? -
Youth Minister's (and other pervs) Thread of Shame

By Gawd, that's @jkates's church!! It's so weird this keeps happening on Ed Young or his children's watch. -
So just to be clear, after a solar flare knocks us back into prehistoric ages, with no technology, and no electricity, SILVER is going to be THE commodity, right? Do I have that right? Nevermind that it's main value at this point exists as only a valuable metal used in technology, and as a hedge against paper markets...both of which will cease to exist with a massive solar flare. Do I have that about right? I mean I suppose it could make less sense. I suppose he could be stanning that crypto is the only thing that will retain value in a post-electricity world.
