  1. And it was glorious.
  2. Tim Miller was worth the watch. He befuddled Maher by flat out rejecting his stupid false equivalency. Maher is just not funny anymore. His New Rules last night was the best thing he’s done in a while. Israel broke him somehow. He can’t accept that just because they were attacked and fully have the right to defend themselves, some people just don’t believe that they should slaughter the whole civilian population of Gaza to do it.
  3. I feel embarrassed that at the time, I thought if Bush, McCain, and Romney were elected, the world would end. Little did I know what was coming. I long for the day that the Republicans were at least sane.
  4. Didn’t see this coming
  5. I hate it when Hot Wheels rolls out on the field with the captains for the coin toss. The guy next to me got super pissed when he overheard me saying to my friend on the other side that having him roll out there with his too big cowboy hat didn’t exactly convey a sense of strength.
  6. Wasn’t referring to politics.
  7. Sounds like you need to get a new wife, mistress and friends.
  8. Red Hat friend of mine has a new grand baby. He mentioned that he was going with his daughter to get the baby some shots. I asked him what he thought about the chairman of Trump campaign being on tv last night talking about revoking vaccine approval and putting the guy with a worm in his brain in charge of it. His response was “why do you make everything political?”
  9. No shit. Those mother fuckers have been saying “fuck Joe Biden” for years and he basically says “hey, fuck you too”, and they fall apart. He’s right, they are garbage. Maybe if society had been tougher on those knuckle dragging pieces of shit ten years ago for being so deplorable they might have been shamed in to taking a hard look at themselves. No shit.

  10. I had no idea until recently that a cottage industry exists in blue states which assist red hats in moving to Texas. Freedom, amirite?
  11. I don’t know whether to point and laugh or shake my head in disgust.
  12. Live at Carnegie Hall is a masterpiece.
  13. People want to move to Austin because it’s great. But, I’ve noticed that the first thing they want to do after they get here is to change it.
  14. Actually, what I got from it was that the strategy was to bring her negatives up or in other words bring her down to his level. Same theory adopted by Cruz. We will see but the fact that their information seemed to support the idea that the issue causes people to view Harris more unfavorable is pretty on brand with what we have become as a country.

  16. I’ve been saying the opposite. There is no way that any other citizen other than Trump would have been allowed to obfuscate, lie, file frivolous pleadings and just generally frustrate the system. I have tried cases in several different states. Been in and out of all kinds of state and federal courthouses. I was aggressive, no doubt. Pushed things as far as I thought I could get away with. But, I can say without doubt, that I would have suffered significant consequences if I had even approached the level of behavior exhibited from Trump and his lawyers. I have been “hometowned”. The crap that went on with the documents case and the Supreme Court is a lot more than getting the benefit of the doubt on close judgment calls.
  17. Garland is a factor in where we are right now. Had Biden gone with Doug Jones or recycled Holder I do think we might have had a better chance.
  18. I want to get off but agree about breaking news. Pretty much all I’m looking at are newspapers, reporters, Longhorn stuff and Keith Richards. I do have a strategy which is that every time I see an add I block it. Then I block every person that enters my consciousness that I just don’t want to invade my feed. That includes Musk. I read somewhere that Musk was complaining about how it costs them money maintaining the blocked list on all accounts. That’s what made me decide to get really generous with blocking. It take a lot of effort to have a sane experience. I’d love to move somewhere else if they had the coverage. In fact, I messaged DelConte about cross posting on Bluesky and he blew me off.
  19. All I know is that he is running out of chances to do something this year. This year, he is hurting us more than helping in the last two games. If he can’t muster up a pretty good performance this week would you at least agree that the tend is not good?
  20. Hopefully it won’t be something that only exists on bootleg thumb drives with us watching in dark rooms with someone outside looking out for the guys in the red ties.
  21. I’m old. I’ve gotten where I avoid things that make me dumber (this board excepted) and try to listen to people who are smarter than me. As I said, I’m old. I’d rather watch classic boxing matches from the 70’s than UFC. I think social media has rotted our brains. My impression is that Joe Rogan (who I can’t think of as much greater than his role on that show where people ate maggots), is not someone who would make me smarter by listening to him. Maybe unfairly, I don’t expect that most of his audience is smarter than him. But, maybe I’m just old.
  22. It won’t matter. No one is going to want to express their opinions after Election Day.
  23. There has been a serious change in the algorithm the past week. Seeing a lot more crap in my feed. I made a wise crack in response to some Trump trash that showed up and was immediately greeted with this.
  24. 14 min without a comment… Respect, my man.
  25. Allred should run this except AI in Cruz. https://x.com/NickKnudsenUS/status/1849509738461135267
