    How would you rate Kenyon Martin Sr./Jr.?
  2. So let me get this straight from reading all the posts of the last 36 pages: 25% on the right think this is some grand conspiracy AGAINST Trump to try and kill him. 25% that is Black Twitter / The Black community + The far left think it's a grand conspiracy FOR Trump to give him an iconic photo op of defiance, bury the iconic mug shot photo as his legacy, and rally support. 25% are either absolutely exalted and enchubbened that this happened because "AMERICA! You Can't Kill TRUMP! Good vs Evil!, etc." or very salty and barely hiding their disgust that Trump survived and he just continually gets lucky and wiggles out of jams to the chagrin of democracy and society. 25% are both saddened by the attempt and reasonable that this doesn't do much to sway the election one way or another, and worried about the future political environment we have been barrelling towards. So, there is no hope for a normalcy. Great.
  3. I truly hope that this event doesn't spawn our own version of Q where the mentally ill conspiracy theories start becoming realities.
  4. I think fundamentally what you are missing is that the people calling for Biden to step down are saying this because the polls/fear is that he is going to lose and he’s NOT the best nominee with the BEST chance to win. Trump IS the best nominee with the BEST chance to win (and this was true two weeks ago even when I thought he would get smoked), thus no calls from his party for him to step down. You get the opposite, a rallying movement around him. Biden isn’t being asked to step down simply because he is old and slowing down. It’s because his age and slowing down is costing him votes (at least that’s the argument from those who want him gone) and risking his chances of winning. See what I’m saying? The only standard candidates are being held to are “optimal chances of winning the election based upon the sensibilities and tastes of their base constituents and the sliver of swing voters to be had”.
  5. I tend to agree but the pessimist in me thinks we unlock the racism and misogyny just bubbling under the surface in swing states like Michigan, Ohio, Arizona and Pennsylvania with “independents”
  6. Son?
  7. Somebody is pulling the strings behind the scenes and outcoaching Biden's team.
  8. But what am I missing re: stat padding? Did she have 9 points and needed a bucket to get to double double and the foul got her to the line?
  9. What am I missing in how is that stat padding? She got fouled?
  10. Quiestion for the masses: When we do have an inchworm situation, is there a place where comms are happening? Surly's twitter handle last activity was like 2021 I think, at least from my googling.
  11. I don’t know about yous guys, but I’ve got it up to my ears in 2fa in real life that you might as well be the power company telling me to set my thermostat at 78 degrees. I ain’t gonna do it, I’d rather inchworm have my throwaway email address and phone number for spam; everyone else already does anyways.
  12. Presidential elections being popularity contests is my dumbed down idealization of direct democracy. I think it's why we call it a "popular vote". Like the one Hillary won in 2016.
  13. Memories of PiHorn changing his password.
  14. Who took the username InchWorm already as a sock?
  15. I’m just so over all this. It’s like a breakup, a week ago I was sad and distraught and trying to save the relationship. Now I’m just like either go to therapy and let’s commit to work this out or move out and let me move past this and into a loving relationship. The worse case scenario now is this dragging on in purgatory and it only hurting Biden and but ultImately nothing getting done or changed. It’s getting to to the level of Dallas Cowboys mismanagement of Free Agency bad.
  16. People would use a real personal email and not their spam email account to sign up? Never dawned on me. Do you people use your real email for coupons and services as well?
  17. Is this a dig at the man by calling him craven? or just a misforunate typo?
  18. I think Hillary is polling so well because enough people have remorse and regret for how 2016 went down and would like to redeem themselves in 2024 if she ran. It's actually an interesting thought (Hillary 2024). I wonder if she would even consider it though, given how awful she's been treated after 2016. The knee woudl have to really bend.
  19. That is so cringy. Can it be more infantalizing of an elderly person? I'd say ageism if it wasn't our own party doing this, apparently unironically.
  20. Are you under the impression that NASDAQ winning correlates with us winning somehow? Are you one of those trickle down economics guys? I mean I guess “yay for businesses!” “Hooray for nvidia!”
  21. Chiraq, ammirite? street stuff go down 63rd and 64th, right?
  22. This is why AI scares me. I cannot tell if this is legitimately real or not.
  23. I generally agree with all this except you don’t think Daemon has a personality?! He might not have a personality you like, but he’s absolutely got one in that he’s rebellious and defiant and moody and brooding and chip on his shoulder, who seems to enjoy war. If anyone didn’t have a personality it was his brother.
  24. And quite literally India (our ally and democracy in Asia) today. Like, this isn't just "bad optics you took a pic from 8 years ago when it was mildly excusable to a Putin friend." This was 7/8/2024. Their best friendmanship is disgusting. Russia ain't stopping. You are right.
