Putin’s Pawn Pissing his Pants: Hungary Votes 2026
Yeah…but those bassackwards fuckers don’t even speak an indo-European language. It’s Uralic. Bitch please. That said…go Hungary. Make a statement here.

Wait..you believe that story? From Israeli media? Yeah…I’ll wait to see objective corroboration of that. Come on.

Surly kids who can't get into UT
Yep. We told our kids that where they get their undergrad degree matters, but only so much. Go someplace you’ll be happy, and get that piece of paper. And yes, cost and debt came into play. Daughter was serious about Georgetown. We told her it’s a reach, she said “no, I think I can get in.” We explained that it was a reach for US, financially - $320k for four years would be brutal. She realized “oh…yeah, that matters.” Went to a great school for just over 1/3 that price. Oh, and Georgetown shot her down (just like they did to me back in the day…family tradition). The boy was between university of Denver and Glasgow. Denver threw good money at him, but even with that, he asked, and we told him that Glasgow would save us 80-100k over four years. He answered “well that makes this easy.” Giving your kids the gift to a debt-free degree is a great thing, but they have to be team players in the process.

I mean, how long does it take Kush and Trump to calculate how much is in it for them, personally?

The Trump Economy
A price I would gladly pay for 1985 Brisket to have a night with 1985 Lori Loughlin.

HBO MAX: "The PITT"
In a world of Breathtakingly stupid verbal trends…that’s near the top.

HBO MAX: "The PITT"
Just started watching, I’m just four episodes in on season 1, so am avoiding reading much of this thread. But holy crap. This is one of the best shows I’ve ever watched. It’s stunning, just incredibly well-done.

2028 Presidential Election ....
Nobody is beating third term Trump in 2028. Remember, you live in actual hell.

Bye bye Luby's
Are you from S. Texas, or have S. Texas roots? Because that's a S. Texas thing. Only people I know who did that were from far S. Texas (like, borderlands south).

2028 Presidential Election ....
Thanks for running, appreciate what you tried to do. But (1) this party HAS to stop trotting out proven losers, (2) and has to acknowledge that this is a shitty, bigoted, misogynist country, so stop running women and minorities for nation-wide office. I don't like that (2) is true. But that don't make it not true.

Nobody likes you, and you seem to be doing fine.

2021 - Is inflation finally back in the conversation?
This is what I'm sayin', man. I didn't realize it, but I found the pretty and smart gal sexy since I was in elementary school. I have a type, and that's that. I'm perfectly happy to keep derailing this thread with Kate Jackson talk if y'all like. Maybe my first "hollywood" crush.

2028 Presidential Election ....
Carve this truth in stone. Being a cruel fucking asshole is an ideology that cannot be overcome or supplanted. Correct, and... Correct. "Smart and qualified" are things this fucking country HATES right now. We need to run someone who ways what stupid people want to hear, and has a strong meme game or some shit. Our consumers are idiots. Treat them like such, and you'll make the sale.

Kristi Noem: Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas
Dude likes tig ole bitties and ain't shy about it. I mean, all the other shit - the hypocrisy, cruelty, lying, etc. etc. -- fuck that. But don't shame a dude for liking what he likes. And, he wanted to be a "trans bimbo slut." Fly your freak flag, man. Be you. I ain't gonna judge. It ain't for ME, but I ain't judging. World would be a happier place if more people just were who they are. Also...I don't think Shy Sotomayor is her real name. Call it a hunch. WAIT... I read more, and it seems that IS her real name? Man, what an awesome world we live in.

Trump’s America
Put that in the "least shocking news ever" pile over there in the corner. It's a pretty big pile these days....

Austin ISD School Consolidation
Oh, and don't misstate my position -- I don't only "believe in the first 4 books of the NT." I give them primacy, but primacy does not indicate exclusion. That discussion was in and of another thread, but what you attribute to me is false and not what I said at all.

Oh. You expect Christonationalists to be theologically sound. That's cute. It's much more blunt-instrument than that. Get the foot in the door, make the Approved Fundamentalist Version of the Bible an official state text, and Katie-bar-the-door.

2021 - Is inflation finally back in the conversation?
See, most everyone was in the Jaclyn vs. Farrah world....which left the magnificent Kate Jackson as Sabrina all to me. Perfection.

What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
Just ate at their patio two days ago. That oak tree is still there, is even bigger, and truly one of the most amazing trees I've ever seen. Plus, if you like to eat your lunch among well-put-together middle-aged gals, it's a great choice. Salads are actually pretty good, too.

What's happening in Iran?
Sure. Makes sense. But now, imagine you are an incredibly stupid person who is also fucking insane and mentally unstable as fuck. So, you can see how our positioning might be a tad different.

Trump’s America
See, the aliens were observing us, and were so concerned that we'd be a pestilence that would spread through the galaxy that they were on the verge of wiping us out....but then they saw a Trump rally, and concluded "why waste the energy, they'll destroy themselves soon enough."

Austin ISD School Consolidation
No. It is not. It is for Christonationalist proselytizing reasons. It's not a coincidence that state leadership openly stating their belief and intent that this is a "Christian nation" are trying to inject Christian writings and dogma into public schools. Believe them when they tell you who they are and why they want to do things. The alternative would be that there was some new, objective scholarly thought on "we need a more broad-based literary curriculum, including all kinds of passages that may include religious writings." There isn't. There's one reason. You know what it is. They told you what it is. Don't be disingenuous, it just makes you look foolish.
