  1. Don't you live in OC? Kinda burying the lede there...
  2. someone was successfully extorted in New York?
  3. Amazing. 1) Its the dems fault for not doing a better job stopping this! 2)But also, how dare you bring politics into this!
  4. A lot of people would be on board with this. The issue is your second item on the list - inalienable rights. About 80% of our political battles lie in trying to define which rights are inalienable.
  5. I think we just watched the internet break someone's brain in real time holy shit
  6. Sorry, yes. I didn't read your original question with that in mind and was thinking more about the strategy behind winning the senate seat.
  7. CA has an open primary. The ballot had like 20+ candidates from all parties. What is the advantage to the Democratic party if they had not "allowed" Porter to run?
  8. The kitchen speech from last night? Should have had her do it from the driver's seat of a F-150 while going 47 in a 35 wearing Oakleys
  9. I can't think of a more appropriate "Leopards Eating People's Faces" moment than voting for a guy who has a platform that will retroactively seek to strip you of US citizenship and put you on a plane to a country you've never been to.
  10. I too thought OP was crazy but then I took a deeper look at the evidence in the OP, and it's really hard to argue with that.
  11. How about for vets hearing voices and suffering from paranoid delusions?
  12. This is the least surprising thing I've ever read in my entire life
  13. It can be done. I coordinate a diversion program out of a court that accepts clients charged with crimes that have a nexus between the offense and the diagnosis (can be alcoholism or addiction.) They are linked to a case manager, a program serving their individual needs, and they have regular court dates for progress reports. We just celebrated our 2000th graduation and have a non-recidivism rate of just over 90%. Services can remain in place even after the case is dismissed. Wouldn't be possible but for a statute passed by the CA leg that our office helped write and push through.

    Texas Primaries

    As someone who has very fond memories of growing up in Texas, I expressed to my wife that I would love it if our daughter went to the same summer camp that I attended every summer for 8 years. I was met with a resolute "no," and told that if she goes to summer camp in Texas, she'll befriend lots of native Texans, who will then mostly attend college in Texas and our daughter may want to do the same. Couldn't really argue. I've spent the last decade explaining that Texas isn't "that bad" and the extremists don't really represent the state, but I really don't have a leg to stand on anymore.
  15. 1) Texas players are overrated 2) Texas underutilized their immense talent 3) Texas plays such an easy schedule, anyone could win 10 4) Texas loses all of that talent next year 5) They won't come close to 10 wins next year 6) repeat ad infinitum
  16. ah yes, driveling on and on . . . with my one sentence joke. lmao
