i feel for the guy.  he had good intentions, then trump happened which emboldened the fucking crazy right wing nutjobs.  he was never going to be able to appease his party which is fractured.  but same can be said for democrats.

 

the middle is dying.  crazies on both sides are vying to gain influence to wreck america first.

The middle is still there, just waiting for some leadership and growing tired of fighting.. but with a primary system that the fringes have figured out how to hijack and that lends itself to no competitive November races due to gerrymandered districts the politicians have certainly become more extreme.

Wow, where to begin . . .

Ryan never had good intentions.  He was always in the pocket of big donors.  And the cannot be said for Democrats.  The old spiel about "both sides" is simply not true.  If you think it is, please cite some examples.  Who are your Democrat crazies?  And why?

Technically Ryan fucked Trump more than Trump fucked Ryan.

Trump signed on to Ryan’s god awful legislative agenda instead of trying to follow through on the populist promises he made during the campaign.

If Trump had stuck to his guns and pushed for more affordable healthcare for all plus a simplified tax plan that wasn’t just a consolation of wealth bill,  he’d be much more popular now.

Trump should have listened to Bannon when it came to domestic policy.

Thankfully it's a new day and there will be a new story. Maybe we can discuss the airplane crash in Algeria yesterday?

will someone please explain to me how the fuck Hugo is out of his fucking Cloak Room Cave, and more importantly, how the fuck that clown has over 100 rep points?

One of the interesting things about the new forum is that you can see who's rep bombing & propping:

Big news of today:  Clint Small Middle School is hosting a track meet against Covington, Mendez, and Ann Richards School for Girls. There’s only two meets left before the District Meet so the kids need to start dialing their shit up now. There’s no more time for fucking around in events you aren’t suited for.   

Check for updates again today after 6.

Maybe it's too early to pick one for today. Most news outlets seem to be going with Trump's tweet that an attack on Syria may or may not happen soon. That doesn't seem like real news to me, and it would be my preference to ignore anything on Twitter in general.

For now it's a tossup between the Algerian plane crash and New Zealand shutting down offshore drilling.

Not intended to be cloaky, but I can see how it could easily go that direction. If it does, feel free to delete thread, ban user.

Yeah, the humor's great here.  We already have Hugo Stiglitz bragging about his rep like a Russian version of Rocko.

Green-haired turtle that breathes through its genitals added to endangered list

3500.jpg?w=620&q=55&auto=format&usm=12&f

It sports a green mohican, fleshy finger-like growths under its chin and can breathe through its genitals.

The Mary river turtle is one of the most striking creatures on the planet, and it is also one of the most endangered.

The 40cm long turtle, which is only found on the Mary river in Queensland, features in a new list of the most vulnerable reptile species compiled by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL).

Despite the turtle’s punk appearance – derived from vertical strands of algae that also grow on its body – its docile nature made it historically popular as a pet.

Gill-like organs within its cloaca – an orifice used by reptiles for excretion and mating – enable it to stay underwater for up to three days, but it was unable to hide from the pet collectors who raided its nests during the 1960s and 1970s.

Rikki Gumbs, co-ordinator of Edge reptiles, said: “Reptiles often receive the short end of the stick in conservation terms, compared with the likes of birds and mammals. However, the Edge reptiles list highlights just how unique, vulnerable and amazing these creatures really are.” 

He added: “Just as with tigers, rhinos and elephants, it is vital we do our utmost to save these unique and too often overlooked animals. Many Edge reptiles are the sole survivors of ancient lineages, whose branches of the tree of life stretch back to the age of the dinosaurs. If we lose these species there will be nothing like them left on Earth.”

So basically it's the Guy Fieri of the turtle world?

Hmm, lots of neg rep (or whatever that is) but no examples.  Good effort.

Going to go with the continuing protests in Gaza for today; lots of Palestinians shot, only one killed today, but this kind of thing has the potential to spiral out of control. Like just about everything in the Middle East.

That is, until the Friday night news dump. Who knows what will come up?

Thank goodness for my snowflake neg rep stalkers, otherwise I’d easily be over 200 and drawing even more unwanted attention to my rep.
