  1. But if he's the DeFacto leader of the MAGA version of the Republican party...and they destroyed the old "establishment" doesn't that make MAGA the new "establishment"??
  2. So I hate to even use this imagery because of how horrific it is but feel it’s becoming more and more accurate as we go along especially with the events of last night: Why are we signing up to help Bidi enact a solution that deems fairly final to the Palestinian question in Gaza?
  3. FIFY
  4. Have heard a rather convincing argument that this was all about the Adelsons not wanting to sink super max salary money into a player in Dallas when there has been no movement and no path forward for them to build a casino in Dallas next to the Mavs eventual new arena. Adelsons are in the casino business, not the sports franchise ownership business and our (no CR) political heros in Austin ain't gonna let casino gambling happen anytime soon. Adelsons thought they could buy their way into legalized gambling in Texas but made a massive miscalculation due to all the big political players that could make casino gambling happen already being bought off by factions that do not want casino gambling. If that happened to be paired with a little birdie at the league office telling them if they wanted to unload Luka they will have cover if they give the Lakers the exclusive negotiating rights because it's what is best for the league, you very easily get to the point where what has occurred happens. The Adelsons then dismantle the Mavs and kill off any goodwill left lcoally towards getting an arena deal done and turn around to the NBA governors and say: "look at this, we can't get a new arena, woe is us we need to move" and off to Vegas they go...
  5. Color me shocked but I thought at least a few more people lived in Norway, that’s like only 15 ish percent more than the population of just Harris County…and they got a 1.2 trillion dollar wealth fund…
  6. My friends who either currently work or have worked in the lege in the past always have to remind the rest of us whenever we bring up the crazy town bills like this that get filed every two years that the way the lege is designed its far, far easier to find ways to kill a bill than it is to successfully pass one and get it to the Governor's desk to be signed into law. It still does get me aggravated that there are elected representatives out there that think some of these are good ideas and should be laws...
  7. Well at least there are a few other counties with Harris County in the fight on this one and it's not just Harris County alone vs State Republicans... Had a crazy idea that I kinda want to see happen just to watch our States Republicans squirm and waive their hands around to try and make go away: What if Elon in his quest to make X the "Everything App" gets our dear leader Donald onboard with the idea that he can make X secure enough thru some sort of blockchain tech to allow for voting by phone/over the internet? Would they throw a total shit fit in defiance of Dotard and Elmo?
  8. I mean sure it leveled off from that steep dive but...
  9. Well just over half of Congress is eating this shit up and likely to go along with it to "own the libs lol" again, I've definitely seen this movie:
  10. From a little personal experience drilling holes in hard drives is rather fun, can't imagine dipping them in bleach is nearly as satisfying.
  11. It's not super comforting knowing that what we are depending on for some semblance of restraint/guiderails on this administration is members of congress standing up for their bruised egos when Elon/Trump tries to usurp them... so just thinking about the topic of this thread...if things really go south @immamac is gonna nuke the site and drill holes in all the server storage devices, right???
  12. So are we at the part where Jin Yang is pitching "new" ideas, and we are on New US Government?
  13. USAID notice instructs staffers to stay out of its headquarters | AP News Really was under the impression that it required an act of Congress to nuke a whole federal agency like USAID...guess we are in the post checks and balances era now with Elmo and Trump calling all the shots by decree?
  14. Tomorrow should be fun, live look at how Trump is handling that soft landing Biden set him up for so far :
  15. getting pretty close to doing this to my phone, doomscrolling the news in this timeline is getting pretty grim
  16. Can’t make this shit up Anthony Davis has a TBS prank show special coming out in a couple weeks:
  17. Rockets own the Mavs 1st round pick in 2029 lol
  18. So when do they start removing those pesky eyesore DEI Wheelchair ramps from the State Capitol grounds and Governors mansion?? Totally unrelated: anyone know how much a jackhammer rental would run in Austin...
  19. I guess us regular chuds will get cake at least?
  20. Man we were all busy being worried about the NFL being rigged to get the Chiefs to a possible 3-peat all the while Adam Silver put in the call to rig the NBA to keep the Lakers relevant after LeBron with this absolutely absurd trade... Silver did learn from the best league rigger of all time tho:
  21. Feel like I’ve seen this movie before… Whelp…
  22. The avocado serving cup things they sell at Costco do...actually no they don't, forget I said anything...going to Costco
  23. that weird sound you just heard was Greg Abbott trying to pleasure himself but realizing he's got a broke dick... Goeb Patrick and the rest of the non cripple Texas Republican political hero's though...
