  1. Help a brother out.(?)
  2. I think the Supreme Court will hold the line. Roberts has shown he's not just a GOP/Trump shill.
  3. The Constitution doesn't allow a third term, period. If he tries, either by arguing that the Constitution does allow it or by just defying the Constitution outright, then it goes to the courts and ultimately SCOTUS will rule. There, either SCOTUS abandons the Constitution and officially becomes a member of the fascist Trump party or they rule against him and according to the Constitution. From there, if he defies the SCOTUS order then SCOTUS will order federal marshals to remove him from the White House. If those dudes refuse to enforce the order then we're fucked. Trump Co. could also meet those marshals at the White House with armed guards. There might actually be a shootout. Whoever is left standing when the smoke clears wins.
  4. Altuve, Yordan, Diaz, Pena, Hader, Framber, Paredes, Walker, Brown, Abreu and the possibility of getting LMJ, Garcia, France and Javier back at some point this season.
  5. I'm not sure how best to say this, but the lawyers are the ones standing between Trump Co. and all the bad shit you imagine has already happened. https://www.justsecurity.org/107087/tracker-litigation-legal-challenges-trump-administration/ And they are winning. Don't get me wrong, SCOTUS could abandon the Constitution and fuck us all or Trump Co. could start ignoring court orders. That would be when the fun shit starts.
  6. It's a shame, but bodies stacked in the streets like cordwood should do it.
  7. I bet it sucked cleaning the shit out of that wetsuit.
  8. Sure blows having four(!) SPs on the injured list. Something to look forward to, maybe. If they all return to form our staff will be stacked.
  9. Why? Everyone in the world, including the terrorists, see that we're 9/11-ing ourselves right now. Why put themselves out when we're doing a smash-up job of fucking up the country on our own?
  10. White House Easter Egg Hunter, sponsored by Carl's Jr.
  11. It's an amazing testament to human resilience, denial and delusion that people still willingly go to that school and root for their sports teams. The a&m logo is a badge of futility and shame, yet we still see them everywhere proudly displayed. Just amazing.
  12. ...sponsored by Carl's Jr.
  13. To see the reactions to last night's game.
  14. I'm glad I don't care about basketball.
  15. Lincoln Project coming in hot: How it ends.
  16. Now here's an idea. If Trump lawyers are disbarred they would not be allowed into courtrooms. From my experience, bailiffs are loyal to their judges. Who would the Trump admin. send to force the disbarred lawyers into the courtrooms? Federal marshals? Would it really go to a gunfight between bailiffs and federal marshals? I guess if the disbarred lawyers made it into the courtroom then the judge could refuse to hold the hearings. I guess the next step would be impeachment of the judge by Congress. That would take 2/3 of the Senate.
  17. No, but he texted back, "Ok." That's how I knew I fucked up. I responded and told him it was meant for my wife and that I was sorry to disappoint him. We had a laugh about it. I only use them with my wife because it's one of the few things I do that she actually finds cute/funny.
  18. Fuck me. Gatorbet beat me to it.
  19. I did a triathlon and beat this guy who was a pretty good athlete. I knew him and we talked after the race and texted each other "good race" and shit like that. I was driving home and I texted my wife a peach, eggplant and splash because I wanted to fuck when I got home. Except that I texted the guy by mistake.

    Getting old sucks

    You were 56 in 1999?!
  21. At least with my family members it's not willful. They would not choose to be brainwashed. They think Fox News is fair and balanced and accurate. They think NBC, NYT, CNN are liberal media and they are the ones who are spewing untruths. I think they are prejudiced and racist, but that is because that's what they knew growing up and never questioned it enough to put it aside. Hell, I don't think they have the capacity to be introspective enough to know they harbor hate. They would probably be shocked and hurt by the accusation. No one is doing anything to disabuse them of their wrongful thinking. There are a few family members, maybe 15% who know better, but none of us want to risk our relationships by trying to show them the error of their ways.
  22. So hard to listen to. I did see a couple of common threads or mindsets: 1. Every person should be responsible for themselves and no other person should be responsible for any other. This goes to the huge problem conservatives have with the government using their tax dollars to help other people. 2. Religion is required to form a moral foundation. I also saw a lot of opinions that were based on provably false premises. It's like if a person was presented with two alternatives, one being true and the other being false, but what the person wanted to believe, they would go with the false one every time. None of this is surprising or different from what most of us already know. Seeing this just reinforced it.
