  1. Gotcha. More of a potpourri of blame.
  2. Are we still shitting on Ewers or have we moved on to Wingo? I don’t want to look like an idiot here.
  3. When $ became speech, then to get your voice heard you need $. The idea that civic organizations were full of salt of the earth working class people is a little of a revisionist history. These groups were made up with folks who could afford to be in them…… especially with their time. The naacp is somewhat of an outlier IMO as these folks were fighting an almost existential battle. That crossed economic lines. There’s no real way to put the genie back in the bottle. Americans are struggling to maintain their lifestyles. Well off people still feel like they’re underwater bc of healthcare and college costs. Poor folks are straight f’d. Lower class and working poor can’t catch a brake. Everyone is in debt on their house or credit card or student loans or that car or the payday lender who has your car title. Parenting demands 100% of your focus when you’re not at work 45-50 hrs / week and when not commuting which is another 5-10 hrs away. So there it is folks. Outside of a breaking point we are left in the cold. One side doubles down on racism and xenophobia to distract from their policies the just go to enrich them further. And the democrats focus on the rules and play by a script that has been out of date since Obama and requires someone of his generational skill much like bill clinton to win. Any normal person or Biden character needs damn near a nuclear disaster (and Obama kind of needed that too as well as Clinton and the recession) to win bc the party or normalcy is full of ‘woke pussies’ who make the others feel bad about hating their fellow man and waiting on their Christian bank-shot of an eternity of bliss.
  4. Inflation and an old dude that no one liked didn’t step aside like he said he would and folks got a candidate they didn’t know that was part of the administration of the guy they didn’t like. Trump was able to be the change candidate in a time of anti incumbency sentiment around the world. Democrats do need to come up with a platform that isn’t just anti MAGA but it could have worked if they ran anyone other than the current President or the VP knowing what we know now.
  5. Username does not check out…… https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Shurgging
  6. Houston is the de facto capital of Louisiana…. So this makes sense to some degree. Houston is always playing catch up, however. The dfw metroplex is divided into two TxDot districts. Houston is 1. This has allowed dfw to get far more $ than Houston even though their msa’s are of similar in size in addition, the hub and spoke network is actually a super poor design for an area with lax zoning and that has multiple employment centers that have developed post the advent of the interstate system. DFW as a whole has more of a grid network thanks to having both Fort Worth and Dallas requiring access to the interstate highway system when the system was being planned While north Texas folks would probably disagree, this has led to a better overall design for suburban growth / employment. And getting all that extra $ helps bigly
  7. He should have probably sat this one out.
  8. Carter’s Radioactive piss is one hell of a punk band name
  9. I thinking it’s now escalated to a full Provo push of a jump hump.
  10. Under appreciated post. Bravo sir.
  11. CU should have gone for 2 after their first TD, no? You’re only down 3 TD’s and a FG if you execute the conversions…. But that would require a CU stop…. Which idk if they can do.
  12. Don’t you go for 2 there? You’re 4 scores down, yes. But if you get 3 TD’s and execute the 2 pt conversions then you’re only down a field goal after your third td….. Am I wrong?
  13. Trump administration policies:
  14. This doesn’t really solve our RF problem but I guess we stick Chas there? Parades and Dubon just float around the very position either giving that person a day off or having them DH?
  15. Sean Hannity wishes he had that kind of scratch.
  16. Good thing they’re out of child bearing age. Their child would likely bring on the end times…..
  17. Dang. Paywalled. And just when I canceled my … checks, notes… San Francisco Chronicle subscription?
  18. After the move:
