  1. I don't like her for one big, big reason: she is a woman. That means she will never be respected and will never go far. The Dems need to stick with middle-aged and above white men. That is not based in any way on what I think about her merits or anyone else's. That is based entirely on how shitty I have observed the American electorate to be. The American people want a mediocre white man running things. They insist on it. They'll vote for a puffed up white male charlatan before they'd vote for a female Nobel Laureate.
  2. Blah blah blah. The SUPER FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE, GET RID OF GOVERNMENT SPENDING AND WASTE administration will just do what they did last time: add to the deficit by sending more subsidy dollars to those farmers, adding to our debt in order to make up for the damage their dumbass policies have caused. And the MAGAs will lap it up, because MAGA LOVES government spending, they masturbate furiously to it. They just want it to be spent on "real Americans" (read: rural white people), and not those freeloaders and leeches (read: anyone not white).
  3. Even with the historical self-inflicted nightmare they had at the end of 2022, SWA is among the top 2-3 on-time performers in the US. All-in-all, it remains among the most reliable for leaving and getting you to your destination on-time. But that's literally the only "set apart from the others" factor it has going for it now. Otherwise, it has become indistinguishable from any other airline (other than the bottom-tier -- I ain't flying Spirit). So, the way I USED to search for short to medium haul domestic flights was....go to SWA.com, and book my flight. Now, I go to an aggregator site like Kayak, and find who has the best schedule/route and best fare. I generally prefer a couple of carriers, but I'll fly United or Delta if they offer the best package (for example). SWA now just goes into that mix, instead of being my default preference. I fly around Texas, to California once a year, and to Vegas from time to time - that's 95% of my domestic travel. American, Alaska, SWA, shit, even Frontier to Denver....they've become interchangeable.
  4. The dollars you would have spent on fundraising are better spent on ammunition and other necessary supplies for the coming events.
  5. Oh.....good sir. You're adorable. "Built on falsehoods and fantasies" is our current national ethos. Sounds to me like Tesla is set up for massive success.
  6. I don't know if I'm there yet....but I might be. At this point, investing in a "corruption index" of enterprises favored by the regime might not be a bad play at all.
  7. "I support what you're doing, just not how you're doing it." Remember, that means "I support you cutting off social security to black and brown people, because we know they're all DEI freeloaders, but you shouldn't cut it off to good god-fearing white folks like me." That's it. They 100% support the action. They just don't want it to happen to them. That's the entire thought process.
  8. Oh, you're singing my song. I think that these sorts of actions are abhorrent and destructive. But once one side decides to use them, unabashedly....then those are the rules now. Ignore them and play by the old rules at your peril. If the Dems can ever take power again (they can't, and they won't -- the system has now been irreparably broken, and there will be no future electoral power shifts because the party in power simply won't allow it), they need to go full-on vengeance, prosecute, persecute, and ruin against the enemies of the Republic. Them's the rules now. They are really, really, really stupid rules. But here we are.
  9. Yet that is where you are dead wrong. You are being played. Like a fucking fiddle. They get you to go along with their tactics, cheering in support, because you dislike the people they are going after today. Cool. There are plenty of people I dislike, who take positions and hold beliefs I find abhorrent. Let's have fun making a list of all of them sometime, I'm sure we have lots of overlap. But that's not the point. This is the point: Once you have validated and legitimized the tactic, then it is deployed against a wider pool of people. And you are fucking stuck with it, because "we the people" (you and those like you, in particular) have totally legitimized the move. That someone so pro-Israel and so pro-Jewish can't seem to place his Niemöller, and his "first they came for...." lesson is pretty amazing. When you legitimize and enable the tactic and process, it is legitimized and enabled across the board, without restriction. That's a lesson that I thought history had taught us. I guess I was wrong, and we don't learn jack shit.
  10. Doesn't matter. We are 100% going to see a massive government contract to buy 500,000 Teslas, rebranded as "Low Fuel Cost Armored Assault Vehicles" and crammed into the Pentagon budget. Tesla will strap a .50 cal to the roof, charge an extra $50k for that upgrade, and be swimming in cash again before year-end. Because if there's anything that Elon HATES, it's "government waste," amirite? He's such a hero.
  11. Because...imagine the stupidest, most self-destructive, pointless course of action our nation could take. Now....realize that we're on a course of action MUCH stupider, more self-destructive, and pointless than whatever you imagined. Because....we are being led by the absolute worst humans to walk this earth since the end of WWII.
  12. How about the fact that I wouldn't do a very good job of it? Is that worthy of shame? Or does that just put me right in the middle of the Surly bell curve?
  13. Yep. Read the quoted text above. That is 100% the play here. And Rex and crew will support it because "real Americans shouldn't be disloyal to the regime anyway."
  14. 100% on the bolded. Also......would. Because I have no shame.
  15. We used to have a Constitution and the Rule of Law. Today, we are governed entirely by The Petulant Tantrums and Outbursts of a Literal Madman. And the GQP enables and supports it without any dissent or notion to actually stand up for the American people. It is the Cult of Trump vs. the People of the United States of America, and the Cult is marching down the field unimpeded.
  16. Yeah, it's pretty spectacular. What he's doing is RAPE. And their argument is "if he'd just use a little lube, and put on some Barry White......and rape other people, but not me....I'd totally be in support." The bolded part is the only thing that matters. They like him hurting people. They just don't like him hurting THEM. That's it. That's the entire thought process. Suffer. Feel the pain. Then feel more of it, until you think that the only relief you can get is the sweet release of death. And then botch your suicide attempt, so you feel only more pain. Maybe THEN, they'll grasp that a philosophy grounded in "hurting people is good" is maybe, just maybe, a shitty philosophy.
  17. There are ironclad rules of certainty in this universe. One of them -- maybe the prime rule -- is this: "No matter how hard you suck up to Trump, the only question is WHEN he will utterly buttfuck you." I fucking love it. Venal, lizard-brained fucks, even supposedly super smart and rich ones, will never learn. Once you fall in with the mob boss, he owns you and you are his eternal bitch.
  18. Wanna know more about the helicorpion. That sounds badass. Have him draw us one.
  19. Let these fuckers go bankrupt, one by one.
  20. Within 90 seconds of the conversation beginning. It will go like this: And you’re not wrong. This admin will 100% find a way to put Putin in the white hat, and Ukraine in the doghouse. Because TFG is a bottom bitch around anyone with any remote bit of power.
  21. Those in the know call those “Port Arthur Pancakes.”
  22. My stomach and asshole are older, but they’re still of Mexican coonass lineage. I was fine. Bitch please.
  23. My mom’s recipe (which is a stone cold killer) is a lot like that, except no tomato. So, it has more of a yellow color, a little orange if we use crawfish. Shrimp etouffe is the boy’s go-to when he wants to make something to impress food snobs (usually his French and Italian friends). They consistently say it’s one of the best things they’ve ever had, and it’s so easy.
  24. Got a Ryobi. Matches with my batter trimmer, which generates insane torque.
