  1. Blah blah blah....what this means is get your copies while you can:
  2. It won't. Fucking. Matter. Just know that going in. Protest, make noise, call your congressman, do whatever. None of it will matter. Trump could propose to burn the actual National Archives copies of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence in the middle of Yellowstone as he strikes the park with a high-yield nuke.....and nothing and nobody will stop him. We're getting very close to the point where we're going to have to make some existential choices as a society.
  3. That's why grey slacks are always the safe choice.
  4. Bottom line is, one suspects that the domestic supply at the Vatican will be insufficient to meet the increased need based in the influx of conclave participants. Laws of supply and demand, yo.
  5. Are papal conclaves big events like the Super Bowl? As in, there will be hookers flown in to handle all the business from visitors? I mean, I guess the hookers would all have to be altar boys, but still....bidness is bidness.
  6. Lazy scams crack me up. Just got another (like, my 984th) different text of "TOLL VIOLATION NOTICE! PAY NOW OR DIE!" The scammers are really mailing it in - zero effort to even try to come up with an official-sounding email. Check out this one from "fubin352" at...well, a real-deal official domain:
  7. I mean....just the laziness of it all. Why, back in the day, guys would have to cut a picture of a celeb out of a People magazine and actually jerk off on it. Lazy kids and their technology these days. Also....of people didn't foresee AI being immediately used for eleventy billion particular perversions, those people haven't been paying attention to what folks call "the entire history of the entire internet."
  8. This, my friends, is what "winning" looks like in Elon-world. For real. It's so...fucking...stupid.
  9. This. Focus on the shit that's actually fucking us. For the rest of it, the only response should be "he's a moron who thinks and does moron things -- what's new?" Oh, and the corruption. But not because corruption matters to people ethically (it clearly doesn't). But rather, because he's using YOUR government to make HIM billions, while YOU get fucked. The only people doing better from Dipshit Donnie's policies are Donny and his band of billionaires. They are taking YOUR money and putting it in THEIR pockets.
  10. Just remember....the grownups are back in charge. He has the brain of a much dumber than average toddler. Seriously, if one of my kids had spouted such idiocy at 4 years old, I would have been talking to my pediatrician about concerns about my kids' mental aptitude.

    1) Your daughter’s BF is more English than King Charles. For real. Nice kid, though, definitely wide-eyed at all the “Texas” going on all around him. 2) We’ve lost 3 out of the last 4, by a combined score of….10-1. Does that sound bad? It should. Because it’s very very bad.

    This is evergreen. Geez.
  13. Ok, see…that’s one of the billion reasons I hate AI. The correct answer is “they couldn’t, because Neanderthals lived exclusively in the old world, and turkeys are from the new world/western hemisphere.” It can’t think more than one layer deep.
  14. The movie is good enough. The scenery is great. The music, however, is masterful.
  15. This. The things that he derided when they were at level 2 or 3…are suddenly “brain worms” topics now that they’re at level 8 or 9. Fascinating to watch, actually.
  16. I can. And by “care,” I mean smiling at her suffering and that of her child. Yes, her child. Because she was happy to support someone who promised to bring pain and loss to OTHER children…she just didn’t think her child would be caught up in it. You don’t get to choose “pain and misery” for others without getting some of it on yourself, because cruelty is messy and never ever stays inside the lines. Keep on, Trumpers. The pain will arrive on your doorstep someday. It always does.
  17. It’s not any more complicated than this. It’s fine, even cool sometimes, to bring your dog where people WANT to go. It’s a dick move to bring your dog where people NEED to go.
  18. And what you fail to acknowledge - dishonestly so - is that that “distinction” doesn’t matter. At all. Not even a little bit. Every single physician, scientist, and statistician in the world could issue a joint statement that “this study is complete garbage and is entirely made up”….and their statement would have exactly as much import and weight as a random post on Surly. Instead, the conclusion that “vaccines cause Autism and also germs and viruses aren’t real and gay people taking poppers causes AIDS” will become law and gospel truth. That’s the whole point and the whole problem. It’s not that there’s no basis to criticize the completely made up insanity coming out of this admin, it’s that IT DOESN’T MATTER OR MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE. The only way to address and stop the bullshit is to stop it before it starts. Because once issued, it becomes law on par with the law of gravity.
  19. Dude…that’s all great, and is what COULD make this country great. But the souls of this country is frozen, artery-clogging shit at Applebees. America is an Applebees.
  20. Nobody cares that you ate a gas station burrito.
  21. Shit, we were just reminiscing about the Hyatt fajitas, trying to figure out when those ended. Looks like around 2003-2005 or so.
  22. And that they didn’t mow down 1,000 others with her. We had a chance to draw a line the right way. We failed.
