  1. Hot Wheels is playing the rural vs urban card. Bigger districts don't have the burden of the smaller ISDs where everyone knows most of the board members and that exerts intense pressure on those people. Being addressed by some fairly anonymous person in a meeting is far less consequential than being cornered in the local grocery, bank or hardware store by a neighbor or fellow churchgoer. That doesn't even bring kids and spouses into the equation, which usually multiplies the issues. Abbott is hoping that these rural schools treat everything like its 2018 again and Covid just doesn't take root. If it does, you know he's already got some deflection ready. To the untrained, but wide open eye, this shit looks like it's in its infancy worldwide. I think it would take something like the Black Death to move some of these people, but not all.
  2. But if we could just band together, you know, as employees and fight this! Coming Soon For The Unvaccinated: A $50 Monthly Paycheck Deduction From Your Employer https://www.forbes.com/sites/brucejapsen/2021/08/08/coming-soon-for-the-unvaccinated-a-50-monthly-paycheck-deduction-from-your-employer/?sh=7e195d247ae3
  3. She had a face that was great. Girl next door you felt you might have a chance with. You never saw her bitch resting face. Julie Bowen always struck me the same way.
  4. And a lot of people figure they survived the first wave fine, so no need to take any precautions this time around. The past 3 or 4 months has been the eye of the storm. The backside's going to be worse. I am going to bet that none of these stories about these right wing morons are getting any type of play on NewsMax, OANN, Fox, etc.
  5. One of the comments in the twitter feed I was looking at was some lady who was saying one of them (didn't say which) was vaccinated and had been very careful about exposure. Also said the pic as pre Covid in 2018. Said this guy detested Trump, but apparently had no issue continuing to be tight with Trumpistas.
  6. I grew up being told Texas had the best roads, the best schools, and other social structures that made us truly exceptional. We're not even average anymore.
  7. Nancy Boston is a special kind of stupid. I'm friends with Boston's counterpart in Bell Co. Polar opposites. The ones I have engaged with this come back with science is the work of the devil. How you feeling man? Hang in there! I lost one friend several years back to the Q movement. I decided today to cut another free after he gave me this smug smartass story about how he set some receptionist in Houston straight about how he'll get vaccinated the day he gets shipped to the internment camp. I told him to leave, to GTF out of my shop. I'm just so tired of these fuckers thinking they are so smart, and they only humor me because I am too caught up in the Biden Socialist Program. And I am surrounded by them. He and his wife have been good friends in the past, but I just couldn't help but think "Go ahead you two, FAFO." And if one or both died, I'd probably not shed a tear. White privilege and white supremacy were not under threat at that time. In fact it might have been argued by some that the white race made America the savior of the world. And follow the money. What better way to rebuild the post Depression economy than by selling arms and goods to war ravaged countries? The same thing with law enforcement. The rural counties tend to get the disciplinary cases the larger counties want gone. Probably the same for schools too.
  8. The whole blame doesn't lay at the feet of the previous administration, but there are numerous articles written on how CARES and its funding was intentionally made more difficult to deal with by them, for whatever reason: "For example, on the final day of the Trump administration, the Treasury Department sent out guidance for how state and cities could use rental relief funds. But many housing agencies found those rules confusing, and they were not sure if they should use the instructions as a road map because Biden was about to take office." I'd bet it was a lot easier for those grifters to access PPP to buy Lambos and stuff than it was for the normal low income person.
  9. https://smartphones.gadgethacks.com/how-to/use-google-voice-as-burner-number-0182662/ Use Google Voice as a 'Burner' Number ...you might need a second phone number that's a little more disposable than your primary number — a "burner" number, so to speak. If you create this burner number using Google Voice, you'll get new functionality like call forwarding and voicemail transcripts, and best of all, it's completely free.
  10. The amount of evidence against Cuomo is large and validated enough to push for his ouster. Unlike all the unfounded accusations against Biden concerning his purported sexual improprieties. This is how it should be done. Reasonable consideration of all the evidence. But nothing reasonable about GQP. With them it's all torches and pitchforks (literally).
  11. We can see this in the rise in popularity of superhero movies based on comic books.
  12. Shit's been bad in GA for some time now. Instead of flipping homes, the money ppl are buying up rental property, colluding on exorbitant rent for an area. Then they collect a healthy deposit, first and last and perform not maintenance. Once the tenant missed one month's rent GA law allows for immediate eviction. In many cases the tenants are leasing units with substandard living conditions, like bad plumbing, rats, mold, etc. The tenants don't have much recourse in the courts and so they stop paying rent. Landlords then would evict and keep the deposits. The evictee would be put on a black list of renters and they would often be discriminated against and charged higher deposits and rates due to "bad credit." It wasn't just in GA, there's a whole lot of this going on. Kushner is one of the worst. But the laws are very landlord friendly in GA. https://www.aecf.org/blog/examining-atlantas-affordable-housing-shortage
  13. As far as closing our borders, aren't there some pretty severe travel restrictions set by other countries on visiting the US? U.S. will not lift travel restrictions, citing Delta variant, White House says https://www.reuters.com/world/us/exclusive-us-will-not-lift-travel-restrictions-citing-delta-variant-official-2021-07-26/ Maybe at the southern border the first thing we should do is vaccinate everyone who attempts entry (after testing negative). If they refuse, an automatic rejection. Then whether deported, detained or allowed entry, at least we know they are vaccinated. Probably some ACLU case though would pop up. And yes, in the meantime the Republicans continue to deflect from the consequences of their inaction by creating more chaos, inciting more fear and hatred.
  14. The bumper sticker was a bit of overkill, right? I'll second that. Go the Little Big Horn and then Wounded Knee, and see which place gets the government bucks to promote what happened at each site. Pretty fucking dismal.
  15. T Shirt site. The only thing it's missing is the PLEASE as an asterisk https://viralstyle.com/GFX-PANDA/come-and-take-him#pid=1&cid=235
  16. This is why we push for everything county and down to be non partisan and ranked choice voting. Ma and Pa Ferguson say hi.
  17. Miller, Acting in more ways than one.
  18. As much as he's been censored on social media and his rallies have been lackluster, I wouldn't be surprised if he jumped at the chance for that much media time again. Just tell him the ratings will be the best ever!! He'll do it for sure. He knows everyone who loves or hates him will tune in.
  19. Hodges testified that he didn't shoot because they were aware of at least some bombs planted in parts of the city, he was afraid that there were likely more, and shots from the capitol might be the cue to set them off. Plus they felt that while there were only a few hundred officers against over 9000 terrorists that it was very likely many of them were in fact armed. I would also think they wouldn't care about being caught carrying a firearm, they were there to overturn a corrupt deep state govt and were there to put a new one in place, under Trump. And Josh Hawley questioned by Kinzinger. I know it was probably best to have thrown Jordan off this committee, but I also think it would have been very revealing to have had him confront this directly.
  20. they will talk more about his tie than what he said.
  21. so who is going to ask them if they saw any evidence of staffers or pols helping this out before, during or after. Hoping it's Kinzinger who broaches this.
  22. i guess those ppl pulling those tasering shits off that officer were showing the love and hugs trump has been touting.
  23. Wouldn't surprise me if aggy doesn't out the SEC bagman methodology by proclaiming bringing UT into the SEC is akin to inviting a narc to drug deal. They will cite the breakup of the SWC, SMU and FedEx days for them as evidence. How would they meet the obligations on the Pyle field debt? Oh yeah, just borrow from academics and add it to AD's already staggering bill there.
  24. For Trump to make any difference now, he would have to do a full on confession of being a con man who duped them all...and that will never happen. Because if he came out now and said it, they would just say someone made him do it, some deep state group.
