  1. One season long ago, I was checking scores and games from around the country. WTF with the SEC teams, just about all of them, playing schools I'd never heard of. I kept noticing it over the years. I still shake my head that they choose something so boring at the climax of the seaon. I was glad to see it was common knowledge and scorned when I started coming around here (hornfans, actually).
  2. I know we underestimate them most years, and they still manage to hit 8-4 but, man, they may only win one or two SEC games. I'm reliably wrong with most of my predictions in sports and politics, but I think 7-5 might be a real achievement for them. Florida and S.Car are looking better than a year ago. Auburn is a wild card. Arkansas and Miss State likely suck again, don't they? Switch the deadly Bowling Green Seniors for Samford, and the dear old Texas (A&M) Aggies would be in some real pretty shit.
  3. Now he's destroying what was basically the only good achievement of the W Bush administration. I think it's pretty clear that the oligarchs have decided a mass die-off serves their best long-term interests. This is full-on sociopathy. And Americans are celebrating it.
  4. I think the C-17 will be used for one or two photo ops because it makes everybody feel macho to see anything military. Vicarious manliness for Trump and his voters. Then they switch to trains or cheaper flight. Who knows, maybe Trump Airline will re-arise to take the contract.
  5. A whole new Trail of Tears. Trump is an admirer of Old Hickory. Sick fuck. Nice news about not prosecuting war crimes in the military and approving harrassment of women seeking abortion. @Brisketexan had it fucking right. Cruelty is our brand. Undiluted. Unrestrained. Unrepentant. @immamac I suggest a vomit +1 icon as an option. Maybe replace the drool. I'm outraged-out. I can still feel revulsion.
  6. Pssst, they've already seen the evidence in sunlight. They either don't care or become willfully obtuse or both. My resignation about the election is largely because the electorate chose or acquiesced to something they could clearly see. Clearly. We are indeed broken on the rocks of greed, hate, and idiocy.
  7. She looks like she belongs on a red carpet. I thought she was a celebrity in the picture.
  8. Aggie Traditions Not big on accountability & loves lengthy new coach honeymoons: Berate the pot-banging rational people. Never should have fired RC. The fans should have "corrected (presumably the perceived coaching errors) while on course. Nattys galore!
  9. Ya gotta get past the pants and a bulging diaper to get that deep up dat ass.
  10. Double plus good selection, my friend.
  11. My layperson's understanding is that jurisdiction is basically a geographical term describing the bounds of whatever agency is being discussed. They're playing to their rabid supporters, I think, who can use the isolated phrase "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" in the same way they used the fragment, right to bear arms. Every idiot adherent thus becomes a legal scholar who has a quote to hang his argument on. As usual, it doesn't matter what is correct, honest, or obvious.
  12. In every foreign language, America First should/will translate to We Don't Care.
  13. Well we did have a touch of the manly manfulness that Aggies are so proud of. Hey, I got an avoidable disease three times and it didn't kill me! I work in the construction industry and we're manly enough to scoff at Covid and drive it off with our toughness, pussy. He also displayed the unsupported smugness of Aggies towards schools they consider lesser even though the Aggies never win anything. Lastly, he ran away.
  14. Hear! Hear! Step aside Black families and young women! No money for you! Da Boomers are Back! And any people out there who voted in the wicked: FUCK YOU! Double fuck you for letting the Earth burn. Next time you proclaim how much you love your children and grandchildren remember that you love hamburgers, giant SUVs, and any ruthless way to get money much more. So many things are spiraling down so fast, that I might actually live to see the beginning of the worst of it. For awhile, I thought I would enter and exit this world (white male suburbia) during the best time ever for common white male people from suburbia.
  15. The cicada of bad food ideas.
  16. I must admire their strategy of massive attack at lightning speed. As with Trump's first administration which just kept flooding us with lies and damage which the media and electorate could not keep up, this is a move to overwhelm with a dark awe. Better count on confusion than seek forgiveness. Trump has always done the former and never the latter. Any casual supporters of mere tolerance of those not white, publicly heterosexual, and sexually non-binary will move on in a few weeks if most of them haven't already. Same with witchdoctors replacing science, the rapid decline of goodwill between the US and other countries, and...oh, the seizure of government! Every EO is accomplished upon signature in the dull minds of his followers. "He made a exa-cutive order ta stop that inflation. Biden didn't do that!" Game, set, match.
  17. Does it include a tragic strangling?
  18. You don't want to hurt the traitors or even prosecute them as such! They were just obstructing a government procedure. They should all have paid the price for their treason in the traditional manner with the traditional speed.
  19. She looks like one of those poor women looking through the fence wires of a concentration camp.
  20. I think you can count those who couldn't be bothered to vote at all in an election of such clear choice as part of Trump's mandate. I no longer believe that that vast ocean of fuckwads would rise up for the actual cause and identity of America. They will sleepwalk through this decline. If normal issues that were once part of the political discourse go sour, the Ministry of Truth will remind them of the socialist enemies poisoning the country and who must be purged. Those who look up from their phones will accept this. Most won't bother to look up. Recall the proletariat in Orwell's 1984. The mass of citizens just accepted everything and went about their lives. I'll overuse this gif, but it so perfectly fits the moment for me. The train is rolling, and I have no desire to take the trip. But, I'm comfortable for the moment.
