  1. If you want to know who the kind of people are who 1) would have slaves and 2) would fuck them, arguing the entire time that it is TOTALLY morally different than rape, for…reasons…now you know. Seriously. It fits into the conservative ethos of “in groups who the law protects but does not bind, and out groups who the law binds but does not protect.” There is a group of people who must be protected from sexual assault and violence. And there’s another group of people who can be raped at will, because they don’t count. The final idiocy is that these idiots don’t realize that they’re only in group 1 so long as Trump’s crew finds them useful.
  2. The only “convenience store pastry” worth a shit is a fried pie. Apple, cherry, lemon….all of em. They rule.
  3. And…so Argentine. Although we seem to have raised a crop of that ourselves. It’s all about the grift. Always.
  4. Fascism lasted in Spain for more than a generation.
  5. I presume all of her merch is made in china, sweatshops elsewhere, or both.
  6. Why would I do that? That's how you end up being wrong, and these days, pessimism has me at like a 90% accuracy rate.
  7. How? He'll find a cushy position within the current administration. Like "curator of videos of terrified brown people to show to Stephen Miller to give him an erection" or some shit like that.
  8. Yeah....we'll see. We're up to something like the 4th time they've been "solved?"
  9. You really shouldn't. All DQ's in Austin are owned by the Mayfields, and they are MAGA AF.
  10. Shouting this louder for the people in the back. JFC, people. That's the outcome. 100% of the time. The ONLY strategy is to attack. Never appease. Only attack.
  11. "To be clear, our commitment to those principles has guided our decisions throughout this process, independent of any external influence from government agencies or individuals." This statement was released right after this image was captured of the Nexstar rep leaving the FCC's offices:
  12. He's also a giant tool and employs a bunch of attorneys who literally can't get a job anywhere else, and who are then handed a stack of eleventy billion cases to churn out.
  13. The American people are not going to figure this shit out until the pain becomes too horrific to ignore. Get out of the Republicans' way. Let them break everything. Sure, it's going to take generations to even TRY to repair the damage, but dudes....that ship has fucking SAILED. So, the sooner the pain goes to 11, the sooner we have a shot of correcting our course.
  14. Finland says "combined arms? We're good with iron sights."
  15. Imagine living a life where it can actually be said "a high point of my day is enjoying the humor of Marco Rubio."
  16. ....and also profoundly influential on the day-to-day actions of the President of the United States. Oh, and remember, when the @Enchubbens of the world keep showing up and telling us how their side isn't racist, and how they just want immigration laws enforced, remind them of the time after time after time after time that their leadership is calling for the deportation of natural-born US Citizens whose sole offense is not being sufficiently white to be "real Americans," and their glorious ICE regularly arresting and throwing in the hole both US citizens and legal US residents. "We're not racist, we just swear our allegiance to a bunch of racists who openly do and say utterly racist shit."
  17. When I was a kid, my old man worked for the Feds -- safety regulator. Most times, he had to work without pay. Sometimes, he was furloughed. In either case, we didn't have much money, and the missed paychecks mattered. Even wrote my Congressman about it when I was 9, noting that his sorry ass was getting paid for NOT doing his job, while my old man was not getting paid and was actually doing his job. Didn't make a shit, but I do recall actually getting a response, which is more than you get now. The Congresscritters' contempt for the electorate is now complete and total.
  18. Fuck Sinclair. They were fucky as hell long before this. Here is a list of advertisers on the local Sinclair station, KEYE. Don't do business with them (I mean, shit.....half of them are Plaintiff's PI lawyers, and there are damned well better ones out there than the TJ Henry folks - I'll send you names if you need one): Abacus Plumbing TJ Henry Lorenz and Lorenz Henna Chevrolet Choctaw Casino and Resort Dairy Queen Chevrolet Edit: u/types-like-thunder commented with a much more extensive list of advertisers on our local Nexstar affiliate KXAN. I am adding that comment for better exposure: “5:08pm • ⁠Thomas J Henry • ⁠Ashley Furniture • ⁠Covert Chevy - 512-759-1414 • ⁠Loewy Law Firm - 512-280-0800 5:14pm • ⁠Austin Volvo Dealers • ⁠Rooms To Go - • ⁠Infiniti • ⁠Dairy Queen • ⁠Lorenz & Lorenz - 512-4477-7333 • ⁠Amish Oak in Texas Furniture 5:22pm • ⁠ReBath - 512-253-8573 • ⁠Texas Oncology • ⁠Stans HVAC • ⁠TexasFord.com • ⁠Thomas J Henry - • ⁠Austin American Statesman • ⁠DJC Law 5:27pm • ⁠Ashley Furniture • ⁠Kia • ⁠1-800 Got Junk • ⁠Hewlett Volkswagen • ⁠Chase Freedom Visa • ⁠Cadillac • ⁠Texas Children’s Hospital Might be hard to boycott Texas Oncology or Texas Children's (although go to Dell Children's, they're phenomenal) if they're your provider....but no reason to do business with any of the rest of them.
  19. Yep. They need tight, consistent messaging. I still think "we're always ready and willing to take action to help the American people, as soon as Mike Johnson is finished serving his billionaire bosses" is helpful. People. Not billionaires. That's who we represent, that's who we'll fight for. That's the entire message.
  20. This. Similar experience. Other students pulled me off of him. Principal found out about it later, called me into the office, asked me what happened. I looked her in the eye and said "he kept fucking with me." She nodded, and told me I could go. He never once messed with me again. And the bully? He grew up to be a POS racist cop who got fired for some sort of corrupt bullshit. That's right, he was too shitty to be a cop. Bullies are shit. Treat them like it.
  21. If you get down there and it smells like fried oysters and shrimp....you should probably bail.
  22. Nexstar hasn't caved yet, I don't think. They'll continue to kneel and suck off the king to get what they want.
  23. Yep. Kinda like this:
  24. Yeah, but part-time pedophiles aren't eligible for insurance. Gotta be a pedophile for more than 30 hours a week to get coverage. So, keep that in mind.
