  1. Well....not ALL people, just a few.
  2. Shit, I doubt it will matter here soon. Despite all the GQP clutching of pearls over the sanctity of the US constitution.
  3. I honestly dont even follow this story beyond checking this thread occasionally. But my working theory is that Wayfair the billion dollar online furniture and houseware retailer has fuck all to do with it. Furthermore, I'm working on an angle where Wayfarer, Justin Baldoni's production company that he founded in 2019, is the company that is named in the lawsuit. Not the fucking furniture store.
  4. uh.... I'm not sure I follow
  5. Thats probably because Antonio Brown is outside his house running laps naked while smoking a crack pipe, strangling a puppy, while denying the holocaust.
  6. Some people are hardwired to be fuck ups. They come from all walks of life. Some happen to play football.
  7. He's such a fucking pussy he cant even admit to being a Trumpkin. Yet spends all his time on the CR with Trumps cock and balls shoved in his mouth mumbling incoherently.
  8. Good luck on short timing. There is no right time. The stock has been divorced from fundamentals for damn near 10 years now. He has a cult, and teamed up with another guy with a cult like following. If it needs price support now, there's always the sovereign wealth fund.
  9. Good Lord. https://www.cnn.com/2025/02/03/americas/el-salvador-migrant-deal-marco-rubio-intl-hnk/index.html I guess that where Trump's political opposition will be sent
  10. PLTR will get a piece. Zuck, Bezos and the a few others seem to be zeroing in on the opportunity as well. And every american gets a yearly MyPillow. Just kidding, Trump already kicked that dude to the curb.
  11. I think our tax code is needlessly convoluted, but purposefully that way so that it could accommodate an endless variety of carveouts and special interests. Its that complexity that necessitates the need for CPAs and paid services like Turbo tax. These industries are now massive and quite generous with the lobbyist efforts, PACs etc.... They dont want the gravy train to end. So it wont. This article is a few years old, but im sure the efforts have only intensified. https://www.propublica.org/article/inside-turbotax-20-year-fight-to-stop-americans-from-filing-their-taxes-for-free
  12. No. The IRS had developed a tax e-filing system where within certain constraints, they could send you what you owed in taxes and you can pay, and there was no cost or "filing fee". I think they tested it first last year and the feed back was pretty positive. I believe it was going to be available to a much larger number of people this year. But that would mean less money for the billionaires of Intuit, who has a long history of obstructing this development. It was on the cusp of reality so maybe they killed it for their Intuit tech bros. Or maybe they wanted to develop their own system, who the fuck knows at this point. I'm back in front of my computer and the latest I read from the AP indicates there may be some confusion on what the fuck he did. I cant believe we're letting this dude just pick and choose what government programs to end. Lunacy. https://apnews.com/article/irs-direct-file-musk-18f-6a4dc35a92f9f29c310721af53f58b16?utm_source=copy&utm_medium=share
  13. Thats the way to do it. Last time I went skiing, I was not in skiing shape and I legit had to get off the slopes by 2PM every day for fear that I would seriously hurt myself. After a few hours, the legs just didnt do what I wanted them to do. Was actually bummed I couldnt cram in full days, but no way was I risking knee surgery, which seemed likely every afternoon.
  14. While I don't disagree with your logic, I disagree with your conclusion. We have several rounds of this stupid bullshit to endure this year alone.
  15. Maybe yes, maybe no. But as mentioned earlier in one of the tariff threads, the threat of tariffs are now part of the "greatest hits". We'll go through this idiocy a couple of times a year, just like caravans.
  16. Impressive. Canada agreed to go along with the plan they announced a month ago? Make the fucking stupidity stop. https://www.canada.ca/en/public-safety-canada/news/2024/12/the-government-of-canadas-border-plan-significant-investments-to-strengthen-border-security-and-our-immigration-system.html
  17. so funny....indeed dated 12-18-24 https://www.canada.ca/en/public-safety-canada/news/2024/12/the-government-of-canadas-border-plan-significant-investments-to-strengthen-border-security-and-our-immigration-system.html
  18. goddamnit....
  19. Well I for one will sleep much better. In Fiscal Year 2024, USCBP seized 21,148 pounds of fentanyl at the southwest border, mostly smuggled from Mexico. In contrast, only 43 pounds were intercepted at the northern border. This means that less than 1% of all fentanyl seizures occurred at the U.S.-Canada border.
  20. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/feb/03/trump-sovereign-wealth-fund-tiktok What the fucking fuck. Government ownership of production? hmmmm.... Although I guess now we'll just borrow money and prop up the market, so that will be fun, until it isnt.
  21. Agreed. Weaver would stick on the roster of any program in the country. His playing time might vary, but there isnt a coach in the country that doesn't want a guy that with his athletic ability and relentless hustle. You don't count on him to carry your team, but the couple of extra possessions he's good for every game matter.
  22. He's trying to crack a market that Liucci has completely locked up. You aint gonna win over aggy with rationale discussion of why their athletic department is a festering asshole of incompetence for the last 20 85 years, so he's gotta try and out-Liucci ole Billy. Will he be successful? Probably not, who really cares. Just enjoy him before he decides he can make more money manning the glory holes around CS.
  23. SAS clips featuring a lead in by Shannon Sharpe should receive an automatic 24 hour time out.
  24. I suspect Rice is too fucking stupid to stay in the NFL for long.
