2020-2021 NBA Thread of Insanity
That is such an old and tired joke, but damn if I don't giggle every single time. For some reason it is the perfect crystallization of sucking and not even fun.

First migrant facility for children opens under Biden
So any particular reason then that you are linking to the Times and saying your link is from the Post? That may explain some of the reactions that you got.

First migrant facility for children opens under Biden
So just to be clear, do you know that the Washington Post and the Washington Times are different newspapers?

Stanco isn't embarrassed, and he isn't going to go @NowThis. What you don't realize is that @markstanco thinks he won. He dropped a bomb, showed us libtards how dumb we are, and now he is moving on. He has done this multiple times, including a great one (I think in one of the many Trump threads) where he explicitly puffed his chest out and dared anyone to respond. When people did he completely ignored it and again claimed victory over in DT. The only thing left is for him to drop in thread in Board Discussion explaining how he is done with the CR, but that takes a lack of self-awareness that only the truly vapid Ohioans can reach.

ERCOT, PUC, and deregulation got us here
You have an implicit assumption that the generation companies chased after subsidies INSTEAD budgeting for plain maintenance and winterizing. Why is that? We already know (and more importantly THEY know) that nobody was going to make them winterize, and doing so would cost them money. I have seen no evidence that even your indirect role is valid. If I have a choice of either dumping my oil in the grass (with no consequence) or dumping my oil in the grass (with no consequence) and also getting $10, taking the second choice doesn't mean that the $10 led to oil in my front yard.

How many times would you guess you've posted about the political motivations and behavior of black churches? How many have you been to?

Youtuber fake robs. Person real shoots.
Given that I literally said I was not even trying to hint that he made the wrong choice, I struggle to understand how both of you are misrepresenting my comments so much. I am not say he did the wrong thing. Not saying the prankster didn't initiate the events that led to his death. I haven't seen any video so I don't know exactly how things went down, but it certainly looks about as textbook self defense as you can get. I just think people should (in general) recognize that they make decisions, not "have" to do things. Is it pedantic? Sure as shit, yes, but it is akin to police reports saying "the weapon discharged". No motherfucker, you fired it. Now it may or may not have been a good decision, but it wasn't something from on high that happened.

Youtuber fake robs. Person real shoots.
This may seem like pedantic quibble, but he didn't "have" to kill the prankster. He made the choice. I am not at all trying to imply that he made the wrong choice, or that I would have chosen differently, and completely agree that it sucks for the shooter that he'll have to live with this. But just like I tell my kids all the f'ing time, nobody HAS to do anything - make a choice and accept the consequences.

Tim Burton's Batman/Batman Returns...
So much to unpack here. Alice in Wonderland is a franchise? Same for Willy Wonka. There is one fucking movie before Burton remade it. I agree it's not as good, but there were no franchises to ruin. Also Planet of the Apes and Batman? You do realize that there were many successful movies in both series after Burton made his, right? Do you know the meaning of either ruin or franchise?

Lincoln Canceled in SF
I have to confess, I do not understand how the principle is the same. The tax rate in Peoria, SF renaming schools, the policy towards homeless in Kansas City, the restaurant zoning in Boston are all so incredibly unrelated to Proud Boys / alt-right that I honestly can't fathom having sincere discussions with anyone who tries to equivocate them.

Lincoln Canceled in SF
So your position is that a school board renaming schools is on the same discussion field as violence against minorities?
-
Lincoln Canceled in SF
It's not even remotely legit though, it is renaming fucking schools in a city and state that none of these outraged people live in. They could rename every school to "Giant Dildo Crushing The Sun" and I wouldn't care. This is the stupidest fake-outrage event I've seem in a long time, but I am glad it gave @Onboard 2.0 a CR safe-space to come in take shot at liberals and make fun of California. I'm sure it got him a full chub.

Trump's finances (NO POLITICS!)
That also assumes that there was no change in revenue for food / lodging / gold / etc. for the rest of the revenue stream. Given travel restrictions I would be surprised if most resorts equivalent did not experience significant decline in these areas. In essence, if Mar a Lago was a "normal" resort, would need to have netted well more than 10 memberships to increase revenue by $2 million.

CR: COVID-19 --Political Talk
Thank you. I imagine you understand (and just don't care, which is fine) why it rustles jimmies when you continuously poke the groupthink bear to say "nuh uh, it's a 7 and not a 10") but I do appreciate the answer.

CR: COVID-19 --Political Talk
@Anastasis, you obviously think it was a major fuck-up to tell people that masks weren't needed in March. I agree. I (think) I get why he said that, but it was not the right way to convey need for mask prioritization. That said - is the the original sin for you w/ Fauci? Are there other major fuck-ups or is this the one that sticks out? Maybe a better question would be on a 1-10 scale, how would you personally rate Fauci's overall performance (including the March comment)? I would guess most people would say somewhere between a 7 and a 9, but am genuinely curious about your answer. I would probably say 8 (given his constraints within the admin) which far exceeds the average within the Trump admin.

Trump Impeachment 2: Insurrection Boogaloo
- Senate confirmation of Biden's nominees
I stanned Warren and definitely was wary of the McKinsey stink on Pete, so even before your reply I admit that I eagerly clicked the tweet to check for dirt. I was ... underwhelmed. I am still not crazy about a future President Pete (although things can certainly change) but if this is the deep dirt, then I think he's gonna be ok through nomination.- Identifying Trump rioters
Wait, is TexAgs really one of your favorite forums? I know you like being a contrarian and arguing on the internet, but <insert Jordan "Get Help" gif here>.- Abolish the filibuster!
I am not sure if you are more laughably naïve or more laughably ignorant. Hugo's politics (by which I can only assume you mean Democratic Party politics) are sure as shit not what got us to an obstructionist and extremist state. The DP sure as shit sucks in many ways but comparing the way the GOP vs DP perform governance is night and day. The GOP does not act in good faith, and haven't acted in good faith for decades. For all it's faults, the DP at least tried to reach out on the ACA, you already see Biden trying to aim for Bi-Partisanship at least to a degree, etc. It's like comparing a headache to pancreatic cancer. Yeah I'd rather not have a headache but I sure know which one I would prefer.- Von Miller under investigation
