  1. Imagine spending your professional life waiting for the moment to undermine the republic because you think an authoritarian government would rule better than the people. You wait long years for all the chess pieces to be put in place including the solidification of the Supreme Court as protectors of the transition. At long last, the opportunity comes. All of your efforts, all of your waiting, and all of the disingenuousness you embraced at the cost of your soul produce the result. An authoritarian government headed by: Donald Trump. Your coup got couped, motherfucker. You're fascist to a fucking clown. Whatever "ideal" you sold yourself that you thought you were fulfilling becomes ash. Still, you can't stop yourself, you shameless traitor to your oath and country. You keep executing the plan. Camp Mystic is part of your legacy. Unvaccinated children may become the high watermark of your murder cult religion. You won't bat an eye when a transgender teenager commits suicide due to state sancitoned bullying. You have no qualm about elimination of goodwill from any policy decision. I'd rather lose and be me than win and become whatever you are. Some form of rodent, I suppose.
  2. You mean the wonders and joys of unbridled capitalism has a downside?
  3. Support someone wry and amusing. We'll get a few laughs on the way down and leave great quotes for future historians.
  4. Also, the whole thing starts in the belief that Jesus would return within the lifetimes of the apostles. For the first time, it occurs to me that the absurd Seventh Day Advantist Church represents the history better than anyone else. He's not coming. So many Christians do great things as part of their philosophy which I respect. Just as MAGAts have corrupted the meaning of conservative, the Kingdom Christians and other haters corrupt the message and mythology of Jesus. There are so many fatal strands to the cable pulling us down. I'm not sure what the racoon represents. Maybe it's the free world.
  5. I think Newsom may have found a way to fight. Use their weapons in parody which gets points across and differentiates the satirist from the vile thing being sent up. The pro-republic forces have a crushing advantage in wit and irony neither of which is well understood or easily parried by true Trumpists. I guess calling them "weird" was the actual start of changing the rhetoric, but the hide bound political advisors strangled it in the crib. The odds aren't good for us of the pro-republic side, but at least the fall will be more entertaining. I'm sure ICE is hunting the young hispanic woman who evidently plays the key role (I can't find her name) in Newsom's strategy. We have a guest room where she is welcome to hide. They'll never search a white man's house in the middle of Trump country.
  6. UTSA? Someone on here said they were a senior laden team. Does Aggie not remember the dog fight against Bowling Green last year? And handle two SECSECSEC teams with ease? The Aggies will learn what a grind playing week in and week out in the SEC is like. It's a line of scrimmage league. There are no off weeks in the SEC where iron is always sharpening iron and the stadiums are cathedrals. I feel sorry for A&M because they don't know what they're in for. As the swallows return to San Juan Capistrano... ...profound Aggie football analysis presages the return of college football. You can rely on the above being said multiple times every week. It satisfies the simple mind to repeat the obvious.
  7. Congressional Medal of Honor and Nobel Peace Prize!
  8. It's not Longhorn toxicity ruining these idiots; it's Aggie toxicity. Make shit up about Texas then embrace it as truth. We don't even have to work at recruiting, we just send big checks. If Aggies say it, it must be true! Dumbasses.
  9. Exactly that. Further, I think it's amateur operative bullshit to keep repeating the condemnation of trans activism as bad politics just to sugarcoat the lie that trans wield any political power at all. It promotes the notion that a group (trans today, meteorologists tomorrow) are a threat to something somewhere. Disingenuity is the soul of the amateur operative who lies like a pro-operative thus selling his soul for absolutely nothing of material value. I destroyed my integrity and all I got was this t-shirt: Even the shirt lies.
  10. It was, if I recall correctly, posted only in the locker room for the players. It made it into a photograph that was published. Texas in no way claimed a title in any official way. I think Brown posting for the players is okay as if to say, "we know who was best and we proved it." Morale and motivation and all that.
  11. Thanks for posting that, @C-Man. Reich is so very smart. I think what he writes and refers to makes great sense regarding the ass-lickers he so pleasingly describes with such bluntness. The place that all of this may not kill the totalitarian movement under Trump's name is that the hate engine that Trump took over will still be running no matter what his personal fate. The GOPs will take back the reins and be much smarter in setting up their dictatorship for the applauding moron chorus molded by Rush Limbaugh. Trump falling would not erase the hate reservoirs created since Reagan regarding the ebil Dem socialists. IMHO Trump's humiliating fall would, of cours, be worthwhile for its own sake no matter what else is affected. He's looking so shitty that maybe he'll croak before he ruins everything too much and be preserved forever lying in state like Lenin in the Kremlin.
  12. Silly boy! Haven't you heard? The only people discriminated against and objects of racism are white men. We've had it with being subjugated! And we're all alphas!
  13. The soldiers in the war against liberalism must have access to whatever they need to decompress after battle. Comfort girls. Call them comfort girls.
  14. This is the gold box sitting on the coffee table (not kidding):
  15. I don't think that means what you think it does. Oddly enough, that may make it correct. Or perhaps this is just another delusional response to one of your pointed posts. Laughable indeed.
  16. My older brother was obsessed with the Candace Mossler murder trial in Houston. That's were I heard Foreman's name the most. Definitely another legend.
  17. Yep. Roy Minton was a household word in that smaller Austin. Colorful character.
  18. I as I said above, I was counting down from what I thought would be a low point. Bush 42 also pardoned all the Iran-Contra defendants on a Christmas Eve. I'm just saying he wasn't an idiot. I completely agree about brains not being mistake proof.
  19. Frank Erwin had a couple of DUIs back in the day. Lawyer Roy Minton was a genius at getting the charges dropped. At Texas baseball games when The Wild Bunch ruled, one of their traditions was to address Erwin when he was present. Before Texas would come to bat in the fifth inning, in unison, the bunch would say, "Hey Frank! It's the bottom of the fifth!" Of course, they followed by miming emptying a bottle. Erwin was good natured about it. The Wild Bunch was the kind of tradition I like. So Texas.
  20. Yeah, I know the history. I usually preface that observation by recalling how dumb Ford was compared to other presidents. The progression starts from him for that reason. I thought he'd be the low water mark.
  21. Just wow. Just fifteen seconds into his answer, which starts with simple-mindedness, his presentation dissolves into a jumble of self-interrupting tangents. At this point, Trump's presentation would be more aptly delivered in a dirty, urine-smelling suit to sidewalk passersby who avoid eye-contact. Incoherence punctuated by active stupidity. I think he's reached a point of being clinically incompetent to do anything more complex than cheating at golf. If he's not talking, his face is a frozen mask to hide his disinterest and boredom. I can still occasionally be surprised by the suspension of disbelief required to think Trump is fit in any way to run a country. As always, his flaws and incompetence are in plain view.
