  1. Okay, I'm going on a little MAGA rant for a minute spurred on by this bullshit. For MAGA it's all performance art. It's like they have their own old Testament book of laws, I'm thinking Numbers, where you have these checklists of irrelevant stupid shit that makes you a good "American" or "Christian" in their eyes. I imagine the checklist has inane and insane shit in it like: Don't kneel for the anthem, stand. No, don't just stand there, sing. Put a flag with a blue stripe sticker on your car. Taze cops trying to stop you from getting into the Capitol. Outlaw abortion. Refuse heath care to the mothers and newborn babies. Don't be brown. Push the brown kids and pregnant moms into the razor wire. Lick orange nuts. Public schools are bad. Giving nutjobs the tools to shoot up schools will help us close them down.
  2. I’d forgotten about Megyn until people started posting about her on this thread. I might have to put people sharing her shit on ignore. if she wants to talk about loyalty why didn’t she sing the company line at Fox when she was harassed? She’s a traitor by her own logic but irony is lost on people like her.
  3. When did Butthead become an anchor for Newsmax? this is just two Trump shills taking turns shilling. Edit: most plausible explanation is Newsmax can’t afford anchors so the decided to skip the middle man.
  4. Doesn't it also turn your hair green? Chlorine is better at killing algae if you can keep it from fluctuating too low.
  5. Agree on it being an easy procedure. After mine I ate enchiladas
  6. By a MAGA that thought it was a muslin prayer
  7. "Instruction includes how slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit." This is like someone saying, "Yes, that 13 year old girl was brutally gang raped but now she has a beautiful baby and a monthly welfare check."
  8. My spa uses my main variable speed pump and uses the water flowing through the pipes to passively "vacuum" air into the lines for bubbles. I can set the pump speed to whatever I want in spa mode or just run it at pool speed and divert the water to the spa with a valve. Maybe you have a similar ability.
  9. After a product failure with high build primer it’s now in basic black primer. The passenger door gets media blasted Wednesday
  10. One of the related articles I read explained how the former president (same one that just resigned) converted all the tenured librarian positions to non-tenured. Tenured librarians had to take on another role to keep tenure. I guess that’s one way to “fire” tenured employees. I’d bet the collections you mentioned played a part.
  11. The cheers remind me of the 4 year old swim meet and it takes a minute for some of them to cross 25 meters. The last one always gets the loudest cheers 😄
  12. Living in North Korea is worse than a dishonorable discharge or even Leavenworth. Leave him there.
  13. Tenured journalism professor at UT offered department head at aggy (her alma mater) but she’s not aggy enough because she worked at NY Times and Texas and they admit to changing the agreed position terms because she’s also black. This leads to the president of aggy resigning. https://www.texastribune.org/2023/07/21/tamu-president-resign-journalism/
  14. From the twitter thread
  15. But accurate
  16. My teens are using it on a regular basis and inviting their friends over. The whole point was creating a destination hangout for the high school crowd. It helps a lot. Now adding in a large screen TV in the game room to create a hang out room.
  17. What are the real implications. I have only read that memo but it raises some questions. What is the impact on corporate property taxes? What is the real effect on homestead properties and is there a breakdown by property value? Does it only affect high value properties (rich donor class)? What is the impact on public school funding? I could imagine this as possibly a Trojan horse, one-two punch, along with Abbott’s priority of sending public education tax dollars to private schools to effectively “defund public schoolS.
