  1. What a miserable mascot. It's about as close as you can get to Persian cat.
  2. I re-read it and see how it could be parody of blaming the Dems. If so, it's very adept to the point of excellence including the anecdotal stuff about Black lesbians. Was that your intent? If so, I think maybe I was influenced by political correctness which, I like to think, doesn't often happen with me.
  3. Man, I wish we had a sad +1 icon for the one directly above. Also, that silly donkey should be Ransom Stoddard facing LIberty Valance. It's tragic that the rule of law or even decency is doomed. That silly donkey could be holding one of my posts or a political cartoon. I don't love the Dems, but they're not to blame. Citizens should be rising up, and we're mostly not. Sorry to interrupt the cartoons. Thanks as always, Brakeman.
  4. Bingo for you on the foundations. I left this out of the quotes from the article: This is maddening and irreversible. To quote you above: According to these people, I cannot be taken seriously because I am fully deluded and controlled by the demon of sexual perversion. My identity is not real but a demonic spell that keeps me from Jesus and keeps me from fulfilling my god ordained potential. what demon controls you? Whatever demon that would give me the power to destroy any of these fanatics who moves against a fellow citizen. I'm an aging white man non-believer. I'm low on their list of targets. You're at the top of that list and spoken of as a danger merely by being openly present. I hate that. I also hate that it feels like there is not much I can do about it short of determined violence. I hope I have the courage to act, but I see a pretty soft suburban white boy in the mirror. I'm so ashamed of this place.
  5. This is valid. I thought the same thing about equal pay for women professional athletes. I watched the first two minutes. I think they're making money now, and I'm glad for that. Market forces.
  6. The wicked are coming! The wicked are coming!
  7. Now start one with "Dear men." Or dear white men. Your idle speculation on all topics is welcome. Homogenize a hundred million people again and let us know what you think.
  8. They do it because they are in a war dealing with enemies. When I made a very diplomatic plea on facebook for people to vote for Harris largely based on character, a high school acquaintance answered in firm opposition. She cited abortions and sex changes and proclaimed these things "Kingdom issues." Years ago, I got a hint about this movement when I saw placard advertising a call to people to hear a guy known for leading a philosophy of holy warrior voters or something like that. Nothing about this on major news outlets. Now, someone has pulled it together. Atlantic has a great article on the Christian Kingdom movement. That's long but worth it. It's not the aggregate effect of many different preachers railing on about this stuff. It's organized and nationwide and possessed of the belief they are moved by God Himself. When I was driving from Lakeway to Clarksville late in the evening of the 9/11 attacks, I wondered if there was anything we could have done to prevent the [ETA] will to attempt such an attack. I concluded not much because how can a person believing he is ordered by God do otherwise? Sadly, it has wider application than I considered at the time. I also decided that late night to never criticize religious hypocrisy; without it, religion is unbearable.
  9. It's good of him to drive home my conviction about not voting for white men.
  10. I think maybe we should be talking about length of term rather than number of them. Trump said that there would be no more elections. It's very confusing with the Dept of Energy out there, too. Which DOE takes care of the nukes? You mean one of the DOE's maintains the nukes? I'm getting a headache!
  11. An electorate pays attention.
  12. As a nation, we are unavoidably self-centered and selfish, my friend. We were led to replace the cause of liberty and freedom in the world to fighting for capitalism. The eventual win over the USSR was a celebration of our economic system rather than the cause of liberty and self-determination. We tell ourselves that we're always attacking and killing people as a repeat of WW2. No. That was the anomaly. Since that war, we stew in advertising that speaks in terms of entitlement. The strategy shifted from this is something you need to this is something you deserve. Americans can't be bothered to reduce their consumption of beef (oh no! hamberders!) to make a safer world for their own children. They ignore science because it gets in the way of wasteful consumption.
  13. I hope they get rain. Trump's fuckery seems to carry that neurolizer memory eraser from Men In Black (and fuck Will Smith, too!). The farmers jeopardized won't forget. 80% of the country would have to care before they can forget. The rest of us know the Titanic isn't unsinkable.
  14. Poor sip. Nothing special until two years ago. Maybe you did, and it's not everything you think it is. Better leverage your loud stadium and howdy! for real results!
  15. If it were loyalty, virtue, and belonging to something bigger than oneself, the Aggies would have the number one class every year just like 2022. Now money has ruined everything. The only reason anyone would go to t.u. is for money. They are masters of dissonance.
  16. They're increasing the ratio of whites to mud people. I'm guessing it's a winning move on its own if he can deport even a fair fraction of his goal. I'm also guessing many non-white immigrants will re-immigrate somewhere else. Canada may benefit from a person of color brain drain of this stinking country.
  17. Clearly, we need more white men running shit.
  18. The subject of this thread is both description and remedy, it seems.
  19. He merely said the quiet part out loud. The GOP hate engine was built long before Trump. He seized the reins, that's all. I suspect some GOPs think the quaint notions of responsible government spending, individual/state's rights, and limited government power were only just recently swept away. Those things have been illusory certainly since Ronald Reagan and likely starting with Richard Nixon. Money and power are the establishment.
  20. I can only imagine how lost I'd be on the new version. When they updated the first Trivial Pursuit last century, I went from a killer player to a dumbass. Demoralizing.
  21. Now do it for Treasury, FBI agents, USAID, and DEI. He seems to be focusing on his own supporters for deportation, so let's backburner outrage on that front. Tough luck for the queens and the coons and the reds and the Jews Muslims. Fucking amazing.
  22. Read the fucking room, dumbass.
