  1. God. Y'all who continue to have ANY optimism in this timeline blow me away. You are forgetting the ironclad rules of this century: It only gets worse. There is no bottom. Your fucking Pollyana optimism bullshit?
  2. Won't matter. Because there was once a trans volleyball player in Possum Pecker, Wisconsin, and brown and black people are scary. Oh, and ICE (which will by then be a fully functioning Trump Police Force) will actively terrorize and intimidate voters who would dare show up at Dem precincts in swing states/districts in 2026. Just pick up a book on "what right wing dictatorships do to seize and solidify power." We're literally running all the plays. There is no mystery here.
  3. This. Until it all crashes and burns, we're all just finger-fucking ourselves. The GQP wants to fly the plane into a mountain. Stop trying to protect the people from the consequences of their choices. You wanted this? Here you go. Enjoy the terrifying plunge and the agony of jet-fuel fire consuming you. You didn't want this? Guess you need to do even more to make sure this shit doesn't happen again. The only currency of any value in our current social economy is pain. Use it.
  4. He wants to bring us 50 year mortgages. And 15 year car notes. If you were to write up a plan for "make Americans economic slaves for life," it would look pretty much exactly like the last 10 months have gone. Fucking amazing. The biggest serial buttfucking ever administered to working Americans, and they fucking love him.....because he's mean to mexicans and black people. This country is getting everything it deserves.
  5. Oh, the super fun part is that these have been expensive enough to suck, but not so pricey that they were worth making a claim (below our deductible amount, or right close to it). So...yay.
  6. There is nothing on this planet less “alpha” than constant use of the term “alpha.”
  7. Yeah…was just doing the math with my wife. This is our fourth material weather calamity in the family, in our two homes a mile apart, in the past 4 years. 2021: big freeze left us without power for 6 days. Major plumbing damage (around $6k in repairs). 2023: ice storm took out our power. We were in literally the last 200 houses in town to get power back, again almost 6 days. Lucky in that we had no real damage, and we had a portable generator (bought it after 2021 storm), so no cost, just real inconvenience. 2025 spring microburst: hit my dad’s house dead on. Busted a skylight that we still need to fix. Power was out 5 days, lost several hundred bucks of food in the freezers. 2025 two weeks ago: lightning strike, $2500 in damage. Fucking hell. Four real weather hits in 4 years. That’s quite enough, thank you.
  8. Damn….you musta bruised your dick from jerking it that hard. Jesus.
  9. What? No, she’s real. And she really likes me. We have a real relationship. A bot wouldn’t know me so well.
  10. Shades of “that stripper really likes me,” but accessible to everyone with a smartphone.
  11. You sound like a woke commie.
  12. All true. And the alternative is?
  13. Or....I mean...you can just hit HEB and get this for around $3: Tastes like America and victory and freedom and bald eagles.
  14. So....let me get this straight, from the most brilliant business mind the world has ever seen: "What I want is instead of going to the insurance companies [so, this money will NOT be going to the insurance companies. Got it.], I want the money to go into an account for people where the people buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out and negotiate their own health insurance [....by buying that insurance from...insurance companies. So, turns out, this money WILL be going to the insurance companies. Got it.]. Dumbest. Fucking. Timeline. Imaginable. Because, I mean.....yeah. Cletus and Lurlene are gonna sit at the table across from BCBS, and "feel like entrepeneurs," and tell BCBS "we'll pay you $300 a month for full coverage, and not a penny more! Take it or leave it!" Yep. That'll work. Fart of the deal.
  15. Again....we have made a financially illiterate moron the master of the fucking universe. And we do so in the cause of "he's a brilliant businessman!" FFS, he's good at precisely two things: conning people, and going bankrupt.
  16. At this point, we need to do everything we can to keep him away from Bill Blaze.... CALL STARKIST!
  17. It's okay. We've just created a system where those people (1) wait till they get REALLY sick, and then show up at our local ER for treatment, (2) the ER can't turn them away (that seems like a pretty sane policy), but then (3) the government fucks the ER on getting any payment for those services that it required them to provide. Bonus point: this accelerating doom spiral will kill rural hospitals first (already has killed quite a few), so the REAL benefit of all of this -- dead Americans -- will accrue most acutely in MAGA country. Remember, when it comes to policy in this era, it's the suffering and dead Americans that tells you it's working.
  18. .....and blame Biden and the Dems. Because the entire oligarch-driven propaganda information infrastructure will tell them so. Imagine the stupidest thing imaginable. And in this timeline, your imagination will = reality, 100% of the time.
  19. Man.....peak Shania. And my CSB about that era: a rather prominent conservative figure today commented on Shania from this era (so...30 years ago, when he was quite a bit younger): "Shania? I wouldn't denya!" When you realize this phrase comes from the mouth of someone I once saw order milk to drink at a bar, it's a good bit funnier.
  20. You know how that one friend of yours decided to suck dick for money? No? You don't know about that, because it happened behind closed doors and he kept it quiet? Yeah. It's like that.
  21. Dude. The appropriate protocol is
  22. Dude. There are no doors left. They blew the fucking building down. We're in the "just waltz in and do whatever the fuck you want" stage. Turns out, "protecting voting rights" is actually an unconstitutional overreach of Congress. Alito already has the opinion written and in the can.
  23. It's hard to believe the USMC even predates crayons.
  24. Oh, it turned out okay for JustDamage's friend. Mike Johnson cleaned up his act, appointed his son his porn accountability partner, and is now Speaker of the House.
  25. It's already been decided. But it will be a complex opinion. Because they'll want to clarify that it only applies to blue and swing states. For reasons. Probably "original intent," because James Madison once bitched about the mail being late, so that's what it means.
