  1. I've contemplated implementing a "You want to see your grandson? I'm going to need to see your ballot before you mail it" campaign for my inlaws. But I realized they'd just pick the ballot. You motherfuckers are slipping. We all need that link.
  2. I'm sure he'll replace them with sycophants. Sounds like that motherfucker basically got over on everyone.
  3. What I meant, specifically, was that in other swing states we've seen shifts and movements towards Harris. PA hasn't moved a lick. The polls you've listed above, they move around, there's outliers, but it's still a general trend. Even if it's a trend and then settles. But most of the stuff coming out at PA is literally at 50/50, over and over.
  4. Lol. She should ask Fox if they've ever had to pay billions of dollars for repeatedly perpetrating lies...so fucking dumb.
  5. See below. NIL contracts are fucking contracts, and they get drawn up and metrics have to be met for payment to be received. I'd hate to see the morons who get slapped with discovery and the contract says "We need you to sit out X game and claim it's becuase you're sick." Or even "X player agreeds to be paid Y dollars by the Collective Representing Opposing School In Week 5 for future services rendered." That would raise some eyebrows. No, it would just be a bag.
  6. It's a compelling argument, and hardly unbelievable. But I do ask this question honestly; if that was entirely true, then why are we not seeing similar behavior in the polling in all the other swing states?
  7. I'm not sure Texas is going to have an influx of people for jobs. Texas's "Pro Business" climate is a fucking house of cards. They're going to have a hard time attracting young, educated women to work here, and as a result companies are going to stop expanding or relocating here. Climate change isn't going to do O&G any fucking favors, either. And we haven't even gotten to Texas's fucking pending water crisis, which people are just now realizing along the Colorado river that it's a Right Now problem, not a "down the line" problem.
  8. Took a stroll through Sage's twitter. So she's a full blown MAGA. Didn't have that on my bingo card.
  9. Let me summarize the entire country right now: "There seems to be real momentum to the left in almost every state in the country, even ruby red ones...except PA."
  10. Sure. For now. But that's not really what we were talking about, we were talking about people with the means to retire in 10-15 years after a ton of Boomers die. I won't lie, Tenn would be high on my list of places to retire, except for its fucking politics. I'll be eyeballing that shit for the next 10 years.
  11. Well, if you have a million dollar's in equity, where would you buy to retire? Certainly not hot AF Texas? Not when you're not moving here for work and cheap housing. To that end, sure I see some of the SEC states like TN, NC, GA, and maybe even WVU, which I've discussed before, being attractive options. But I still think so would the blue wall states, the Pacific NW, etc. That's why I raise my eyebrow at that whole chart.
  12. Old people's finances aren't what they used to be, dude. The late 40's and 50 year olds looking to retire in 10 years aren't going to be in the same financial position as the olds who've been in florida for 20-30 years now, imo. And the ones with the money likely will be NY types, so probably Democrats. Which was the case before Trump Brain infected this sect of boomers. Anyway, it's one thing to be a frog in boiling water the last 10 years as FL insurance has gone apeshit, but it's another to look at your finances and say "Yes, I can afford 4k a month in expesnes that aren't a mortgage or rent in retirement."
  13. Why are you the past tense here? Fucking PA. I mean, comparied to the original post, yeah, I feel like I'm pretty sunny on that topic.
  14. I'm not sure I buy this as an obvious death knell. I don't think it's accounting for people fleeing Texas because of climate change, and Texas does continue to creep right as the olds die. Sure, folks are coming in, but a fuck ton of youngs are leaving and not returning. That should also create more housing for those fleeing blue wall states. But overall, shit doens't feel right. Old people are going to die in Florida, and we expect younger people are going to say "Yes, I need to move to the state that has 3 major hurricanes a year and insurance costs are insane."
  15. Is there any way any of his future businesses with him associated can/need to be run by a trust and his wages garnished?
  16. Landmark decision. Japan is motherfucking awesome. See if you can go during Cherry Blossom season.
  17. For something a lot of us knew.
  18. 1.) This is terrifying. 2.) He was the fucking guy who sanctioned Iran into the fucking stratosphere. And now he wants to remove them?
  19. I'm shocked an oregon state fan would fall on that side of the argument. Sport feels like it's operating just fine to me.
  20. FWIW I assumed that's what you were getting at just by the nature of the questions you were asking...
  21. Isn't equity vesting in a private company with no hope of those shares ever being purchased cost Twitter nothing? Just print of some stock options like printing dollars and saying "here ya go" with a slap on the back?
  22. ...and? Everything you've suggested would potentially be the seeding of a long term overhaul of their AD where they behave in a way...more adult than they have their entire existence. Even if unlikely, why would any of us want to upset that apple cart of fucking sadness? What we really need is Tarp to melt down, and then have him completely villifed by all parties involved, turned into a shining example of being a bad Ag, and then they rehire Taylor Hamm. All while we observe, laughing uprioaroiusly, and toasting to the next 100 years.
  23. Oh stop. You know they’ll settle back into their routine with the next guy pumping unfiltered sunshine within 1 cycle.
  24. Holy shit. He’s completely out of the barn. That old fuck is about to melt down publicly and ride off into the sunset. Good for him. Great for us.
