Past tense. They were hungry. I've been studying Spanish on my own. Gratifying. I also ran it through google translate to be sure. ETA It occurs to me that Spanish may be useful in our emerging banana republic. Caudillo Trump.

Texas A&M Recruiting 2025: The Land of Melk & No Money
RomaVicta replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
Well, you know, they're a real program. Kind of a big deal. You've got facilities. Hoo boy, has A&M got facilities! And you going to keep the boys off of the farm once they've seen a game at Kyle? A&M doesn't need a QB this year anyway. They've got 'em stacked. -
Texas A&M Recruiting 2025: The Land of Melk & No Money
RomaVicta replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
He and William are confident that A&M did perfectly well with QB recruiting. Now seeking non-highly rated QBs because ratings are not really that important. Elko and crew are evaluating. Thoroughly. See Brauny for more copium. -
They ate 'em all. Tenian mucho hambre.

For those quibbling about no consequences: "Alleged War Criminal and Criminal Against Humanity Ben Netanyaju" is not a favorable epithet for a leader much of the world believes to be just those things. This is now quotable by the credible world press which is generally timid about such proclamations even when they document them in person. Now they can quote the court.

I needed that dark laugh. Thank you.

Henry Kissinger would have had to flee to (checks chart) maybe China? The western hemisphere is out even if they don't honor the statute.

Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
RomaVicta replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
I browsed. Got this. Have you no Aggie Honor, sir? Poor little Reveille down there just waiting to watch the next game or at least the scoreboard. Now soaked in Aggie urine filtered through Aggie turds. REVEILLE! Almost forgot to add: She never even gets a chance to say it was a sippy in disguise: -
Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out
RomaVicta replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
Insightful, CTJ, as always. Irish asks a good question that leads to my uneducated thoughts. As I understand it, the 2022 class was a colossal front of cash that caused discord (to say the least) in the A&M locker room due to imbalance of pay. A&M fumbled (shocking!) their handling of this because they were already in trouble maintaining the 2022 standard let alone flooding the locker room with cash to make everybody whole. You think they're walking into the same airplane propeller? -
I do. They changed the rules, my friend. They introduced ruthless means to a system designed for civilized (for the most part) intercourse. I have a cold, ruthless side, too. They should not be able to count on the rest of us to keep on white gloves. We can cite them later for people caught on video attacking our country. Queue it up with the Twin Towers burning and the Pentagon gashed. The war seems to be over before we raised a fist. Shame on us. Now we get the fruits of comfortable capitulation. I do not exclude myself from that shame. I'm embarrassed (in a sniveling kind of way) that I've got the white man stamp. I'll probably die in the recliner watching a Longhorns game before they discover my true feelings on which I've done little to act beyond what I'm doing right now. Pith. I try to bring them down with pith they will never read. Fucking hero of the republic. The Romans should rise from their pyres and slap me for invoking their name.

John Brown didn't get long. Nor did the Lincoln assassins (acting in the name of a country other than the US), abettors, and standersby. Widely witnessed treason is a case for summary execution with vast historical precedent. These methods are not fitting matches for how we want the law to work for average citizens. I don't care. I don't care that the law has an ineffectual definition of treason when I can see it for myself. Along with a 100 million other witnesses. If anyone is unsure, we can replay the videos on a loop. But they're citizens, these "alleged" traitors? Really? Persons who publicly, violently assault the seat of government with arms in hand don't forfeit citizenship the moment they do so? They get to enjoy a benefit because they weren't hosed to the ground with .50 cal as their actions invited? My, aren't we civilized following decorum on the Titanic! Legality triumphs over the obvious. Our violent enemies remain alive and most serve only tiny percentages of their worthless lives (such is the value of someone's life who takes up arms against the United States, no?) in prison. But this is an emotional appeal, Roma. That is the way of the mob and not a nation of laws. No shit. I didn't change the rules; they did. Let's play. It would have been easier to have acted on Jan. 7. Round the whole bunch up and put them on slow boat to Gitmo. Sink the boat. Send Trump to join them on Jan. 20. Pretense? Uh, everybody saw them attacking the capitol and TV changing their status as prisoners. It's not criminal law so much as military law. Our vibrant experiment as a free people has become hardbound. The laws established to keep that experiment on the rails now derails it through arcanity which is the new tyrant over the obvious. ETA: I didn't name @TwiceHorn at the beginning of the post because it's not for me to volunteer persons to engage my raving and bloviations. We seem to be leapfrogging each other as we post which gives the feel that I'm specifically directing my opinions at Twice. Twice's opinions are as nuanced as anyone's; I don't seek to encapsulate them. I've always appreciated the input from Twice. It ain't easy bringing slaps of reality.

I wrote before reading this. I'm not persuaded, my friend, that someone making themselves an enemy of the republic cannot be tried and jailed (if convicted; it's a difficult case, the whole country watched the crime on TV) in an expedited fashion. I'm sorry, Mr. Smith. You'll have to wait in line like everbody else.

Should have gone after them for delaying a government function. Both fucking sides. Just as the press was grinding along the business as usual coverage and analysis of the race (I don't know that doing their jobs would have mattered, but at least they could sleep at night had they done otherwise), the legal system could not find a way to expedite the most important criminal cases likely in history, possible exception for civil rights. Well, it just takes this long. I'm sure it usually does. Lawyers have other things to do, dockets are crowded, procedures can take time, the judge is crooked... I respect the illumination we've received on that from patient attorneys, particularly @TwiceHorn. Fuck all that other shit. Clear the dockets. Order the attorneys. Expedite procedures. Replace the judge for conflict. Pro-ceed. The justice department crawled. The courts crawled. Lawyers were allowed to delay the crawl. Just like the press and much of the electorate who should know better, we've sleep crawled to this putrid administration already allowing peeks at their fouled diaper of an agenda. I stayed patient. I tried to trust the system. I shut out the annoying, knee-jerk reaction of "ain't nothing going to happen." I'm waiting for my membership card to Idiot World to arrive by fax anyday now.

The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread

The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
RomaVicta replied to Horn Dog's topic in Cloak Room
I'd managed to work down to that level for quite a while. Didn't like it, but there are plenty of safety nets for a suburban white boy. I knew I wouldn't go under. A taste of that life was plenty for me. The stress on working poor families must be enormous. But we are coming up on the December to Remember Lexus Sales Event, that ought to cheer 'em up right quick. -

RomaVicta replied to Horn Dog's topic in Cloak Room
She doesn't appreciate the hilarity of insisting to write the same off topic shit over and over. One day, maybe we'll be as good as TexAgs at wearing out traditional jokes. The cabinet appointments thread has been pretty good. We got wrasslers, sexual predators, a guy with brain worms, and a mess of kooky TV hosts taking the reins. -
2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.

First the ebil Dems then the republic itself! You guys are rolling right along. And you're doing it with clowns. Brilliant! Who cares about governing well, anyway? -
2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.
RomaVicta replied to bolverk's topic in Cloak Room
You kind of answer your own question there. The irrelevant are not usually targets for discussion. I think the newsmedia assumption that there was surely a way for her to win did lead to a period panel discussions where she was criticized, but she's out of the picture now. I was shocked to read that her campaign burned through a billion dollars and is still asking for money. I was put off by how fervently they clawed us for cash. I went to her sight where I bought a sign and made a small contribution as well. There were pop-ups while I was entering payment information. I unsubscribed as soon as I completed my purchase. Good advice from someone here. I think this is an exercise in proving that a billion TV ads that cost tens of millions of dollars is not some guaranteed path. The TV news guys like to talk about money raising instead of issues, so I guess they're glad about it. Shrug. -
Tracking Trump Administration and Cabinet picks
RomaVicta replied to PenelopeWitherspoon's topic in Cloak Room
I opened the NYT because I can't sleep tonight. TFG. A wrestling executive, a wacky TV doctor, and a sex offender walk into a bar the White House. What a sentence about the trend of selecting TV stars to run the government. His immediate family had/grifted enough last time to last them forever. Emergency powers activated to round up Pedro and Maria using the Army will really start the fun. Let's get the American people accustomed to military presence on the streets. Pedro and Maria might be safer in the concentration camps than being hunted down by angry white men on those same streets. I'm sure y'all have been turning this stuff over. I guess I just felt like quoting news stories and commenting about absolutely unforeseeable occurences to me forty years ago. Thanks for indulging me. I'm still largely shrugging about all this. It will change when the first stories about naturalized American citizens of color being found beaten to death in the first stochastic ejaculation of Trumpism Part 2. But I still won't be able to do anything about it. Maybe the professional wrestling lady will do a great job with education. I'd like to say Idiot World doesn't care, but, in reality, the idiots will high-five and applaud.
