  1. Sure, but you just took the class to meet chicks.
  2. Here's the thing: for most Repuglicans, "release the files! Protect victims of sex trafficking!" was just performative bullshit meant to get votes, that's it. They don't believe it, never did, and actually, they like sex trafficking just fine because it's among the purest examples of the powerful using and abusing the powerless, which is the core Repuglican ethos. But a handful of them apparently actually bought the message - Massie seems to be one of them. I know people who have worked, for decades, in the world of enforcement against sex trafficking and rehabilitation of victims of sex trafficking. It's real shit, although the perpetrators and victims are 99% much less interesting and glamorous than the players here. But that said, they welcome any allies they can get. And it's amazing that we live in a time where the approach of "if you say you're concerned about sex trafficking, and are against sex trafficking, then you should actually BE against sex trafficking" is a controversial one tells you what a world of shit we're in.
  3. BING-FUCKING-GO. And she was fucking RIGHT. Pay attention to how Trump has run the executive branch. He has done so EXACTLY as a mob boss would do so, including ample use of threats, punishment, and negative consequences for people who don't do what he wants. And when confronted by such a dynamic, MOST people choose NOT to cross the mob boss, testify against the mob boss, etc. I don't even have much experience with that dynamic, but it doesn't take much to understand it. Hell, I had a federal criminal appointment. I represented a low-level player. He could have gotten a major sentence reduction if he'd flip on his higher-ups. He told me what he knew, and it was good stuff. We set up the meeting. Walk into the room with the AUSA and lead FBI agent. My guy....clams up. Completely and totally. Authorities are not surprised. Afterwards, I ask him WTF, he explains "they know where my family is." And that was that. Trump is a fucking criminal mobster. Very, very few people are going to cross him, because he has always made it plain - either directly, or through his fixers -- that he will hurt the fuck out of you and yours if you do so. Start treating Trump like a criminal, in every imaginable way, and you'll begin to understand what we're dealing with here. An explanation/question of "oh yeah, well then why aren't people coming out and testifying against him?" has the same answer of "why weren't people lined up down the block to testify against John Gotti?"
  4. Fuck you, I sure as shit did. I collected on multiple bets in 2016 on just that point. And this....this is the fucking problem. She was a fucking minor. Who was trafficked. She had no agency, that's the entire goddamn legal point. When you functionally enslave an underage girl and farm her out for sex for money, she is not a whore. YOU are a child trafficker. Full stop. And if you're Donald Trump, you are 100% okay with all of it. He is a sexual abuser of minors, the GQP excuses sexual abuse of minors, and its mouthpieces rationalize it and are minutes away from the "actually, an adult male fucking underage girls who were trafficked is a GOOD thing." Every conversation, every debate, anything involving any democrat speaking in public should begin with a statement like that. "What do I think about the state of our roads and bridges? Well, the important thing about our roads and bridges is that I think that Donald Trump sexually abused minors, and the entire Republican part including my opponent is just fine with it and actually supports the sexual abuse of minors. Oh, and he doesn't give a fuck about you -- he wants to take everything that belongs to you and give it to his billionaire buddies, and get paid for it. Remember, if we're talking about Republicans, we're talking about people who either fuck you, fuck little girls, or both."
  5. That's because you didn't take "Advanced Stupid" as a language course in college. If you can read fluent Stupidese at a sophomore level or better, it all becomes crystal clear.
  6. [Epstein] Wait....where can you get a 17 year old girl for 49 cents? [/Epstein]
  7. Yeah.....an outlier for sure. But then, someone most folks really don't need to interact with. You don't go down to the DA's office for anything, unless you're charged with something.
  8. Yep, Travis County title transfer (and out-of-time registration) is amazingly easy and smooth. Honestly, Travis County's operations as a whole (vehicle registrations, wedding licenses, election stuff) are pretty damned good. Nothing's perfect, but they get at least an A-.
  9. Fast food bargains are indeed a creature that young men specialize in, and Americans are experts in it. My son tells tale of road trips with his baseball team in Scotland. On drives back from out-of-town games, they need to stop for food, and the UK doesn't have nearly the roadside food options that we're used to. McDonald's is their main option. After a few trips, his teammates were amazed by the difference: they spent 10 pounds on a combo meal. My son got a big sack of food for 8 pounds. "How did you do that?" He explained the art of engineering your value menu order. He could get 4 snack wraps for 4 pounds, then add a double cheeseburger for 2 pounds, etc. The art of "acquire sack of food for minimum money" is an American skill, and a valuable one. I may be past those days, but I get to chuckle and re-live them as the boy tells his tales. Shit, there's a Taco Bell in downtown Glasgow, and he's converted a good bunch of his crew to appreciating its late-night attributes. Funny as shit to hear a couple of cute English girls talk about how they LOVE going to Taco Bell after they leave the bars now.
  10. Again, no worries. There's a very good chance that before the 4 years is up, there won't be "Americans" any more. Maybe you'll be a resident of Pacifica, if they take refugees.
  11. It's okay. The Republic won't survive 4 years of it, so this will "end" early.
  12. ....so far.
  13. At one point in college, BK ran a promotion for $1 Whoppers. I had buddies borrowing money, so they could buy 50 and put them in the fridge and freezer. Folks ended up eating multiple Whoppers a day for weeks. Was it good? I dunno. Was it cheap? Fuck yes it was.
  14. Love the first two replies. They're perfection:
  15. I truly love this place sometimes.
  16. Huh. Sounds good, Donnie. There's a super-duper quick and clean way to do that. Release the Epstein files, like you promised to do several hundred times during your campaign. I'm sure that @Lamar agrees with me, right? He campaigned on that promise, relentlessly and with zero ambiguity or consistency. So surely Lamar agrees.
  17. No, no. See, he calls himself a "Bible-believing Christian." That way, he can hold up the Bible like a shield against any and all criticism, as he simultaneously demonstrates a contempt for human agency and dignity that would make Christ fucking puke. The fucking twisted logic of these pedo defenders is fantastic. "I didn't physically see him have sex with any of the girls, so I can't say who he had sex with in his whole life or not, but I just know it wasn't with me when I was with other girls" is a far cry from "Donald Trump never raped anyone underage." "I never saw him rape anyone" does not equal, and has never equaled "he didn't rape anyone." Shit, I've never seen Donald Trump eat a hamberder.....so by Lamar's standard of proof, Donald Trump has never eaten a hamberder. This is the mind of a Trumpkin, folks. It's a toxic stew of disingenuous bullshit, flat-out lies, and breathtaking stupidity.
  18. Seriously. We live in a world where (1) there are LITERALLY reams of evidence showing Trump's association with Epstein (emails, photographs, videos, sworn testimony), and the GQP claims (2) it's a "hoax" that "Trump had anything to do with Epstein." What an amazing time. These fuckers would stand up during a live performance of Maneater and claim that "it's a hoax that Hall had anything to do with Oates." It's not just the lies. It's that the absurd and outlandish nature of the lies demonstrates how completely arrogant they are, and much contempt they hold the American people in. When you lie to someone's face about something that is plainly true and right in front of both of you, you do so because you hold that person in zero regard. The GQP actually holds we the people in contempt. If we were a remotely sane country, we'd band together to build the largest set of gallows humanity has ever seen.
  19. He could leave this entire country as a pile of smoldering, radioactive rubble.....and his support wouldn't dip. Because these idiots would see some other people crying in the ashes of their home, and immediately think "hurr durr, Trump really owned those libs! WINNING!" When you realize that a poisonous percentage of humanity finds joy, satisfaction, and success ONLY when other people are harmed, you realize that our species is on borrowed time.
  20. This seems bad. Until you realize that an opportunity to monetize nihilist cruelty has American political and thought leaders foaming at the mouth at the opportunity. There is a 100% chance that Elon approves of this sort of thing, and that folks you know very, very well are figuring out how to sell off the right to kill people for profit right now.
  21. Oh boy....here we go again....
  22. Also, the fucking casual racism that is now not just okay, but is our actual national policy, is fucking incredible. Referring to anyone from South America: "Don't know why they are so dirty given the fact that there are so many maids." It's just fucking casual and ingrained in these pieces of shit. So, what's the big deal if we bomb a bunch of dirty beaners anyway? That is absolutely 100% the ethos governing our nation right now. To say I hate these fuckers is a massive understatement.
  23. Shit, dude. It seems to be a prerequisite these days.
  24. Stop, you're making him blush.
