  1. When Trump guts Social Security and Medicare, I’m betting that a lot of MAGA seniors will be surprised to hear from their kids that, “No, you won’t be moving in with us. You can try praying to Trump…”
  2. Excellent observation. I need someone to tell me what the Trump’s economic policies are doing to manufactured homes prices.
  3. I don’t know, maybe it’s just me, but it doesn’t seem to fit that the donkey show would be at a “minor brothel”. That just screams “major brothel”.

  5. According to the Harry Turtledove alternative history series, the war with Canada does not go well.

  7. and I’m not being remotely hyperbolic to say that I’ve already purchased potassium iodide pills for friends and family….just in case.
  8. Dow down 441 right now. So. Much. Winning.
  9. Nope. Visa. Man, I just saw where Southwest is now going to end your credit points after 12 months. Does anyone know if that means you lose your points from a year and a half ago on the magic day they implement it - or do you have a year to you use points to make a High point value reservation for a flight 18 months from now - and get around the expiration by using the flight credit in future?
  10. I think the best bang for your buck is the Capital One Venture X card. Fight me! Not the best mind you, but certainly the best value for the benefits you receive. Closer to a platinum AMEX with access to Capital One lounges and the Priority Pass lounges - but at half the price. Plus, 10x points for hotels is great. I have branded Airline credit cards for American, Delta, United and Southwest. That does help with things like bumped up boarding groups, less blackout dates when making a reservation and no bag charges.
  11. We’ll always have the happy memory of seeing the Downfall Hitler videos he made announcing his victory over the stupid Shaggy lawyers who didn’t understand how the Fifth Circuit deals with qualified immunity. it was amazing. He is married to a highly skilled and intelligent attorney, and yet he could not get past us telling him what would happen - without him morphing that into us telling him what we wanted to happen - and him acting out all butt hurt Just astonishing failures to read the room and to understand that it is a lawyer‘s job to predict what will happen, even if we strongly disagree with the result.
  12. That is a great strategy. They know the orange shithead is an angry toddler, and that he will respond with greater tariffs if poked. Canadians also know that tariffs will destroy ‘Murica’s economy and wreck the the US. Right now that seems to be the only way to maybe get rid of Donnie in the next couple years. You can never calm a bully’s bullying by complying - but you can smash him in the nose. Canada is smashing him in the nose, knowing full well that he will get off of his toilet, throw down his cell phone, and start throwing punches with his tiny doll hands at the things nearest to him, regardless of whether it is in his best interests to do so. I applaud the Canadian Mensas.
  13. He seems pretty happy now. He probably still has a couple trash bags full of SCOTUS dope - so that makes sense.
  14. at least Trump is getting positive press
  15. Well, that statement should certainly make all the traders more optimistic.
  16. Santa Clara. One thing about living in Santa Clara I never could stomach. All the damn vampires…
  17. Since Annie loves him some George Kennan, let’s read some of his Long Telegram: “Basically this is only the steady advance of uneasy Russian nationalism, a centuries old movement in which conceptions of offense and defense are inextricably confused.” Ani - ‘So let’s let Russia do what it wants to do’
  18. Certainly, 1000,000 Russian casualties and the elimination of their modern tanks and APCs and fighter-bombers and naval assets is a pretty damn good adjunct.
  19. Gata by 19. Why apparently God has decided we will never have a good women’s basketball team, I don’t know, but that is what the Almighty has decided.
