I realized at one point that all the gay bashers stridently claiming being gay was a choice should not be dismissed out of hand. What do they base this on? One can only conclude that they have faced that choice and decided that they want to be heterosexual.

A clever friend of mine was with some conservatives many years ago. The conservos were insisting it was a choice. My friend suggested, "Okay. If it's a choice, why don't we all choose to be gay for the next 15 minutes." I've remembered that because it was, IMHO, brilliant.

Counterpoint: they claim being gay is a choice because they’re all closet homosexuals and think they’re choosing to be straight.

New FL poll has Trump up 7 (49-42) with Rick Scott underperforming Trump (47-43) and both the abortion and weed amendments flying by (69-23 abortion and 64-31 weed)

She has some room to grow, especially with those weed/abortion numbers.

It's really strange to see such a huge gap between Trump/Scott and the no side of the amendments. The Michigan amendment passed 56-44, and it swept the GOP completely out of state government. 

Then again, this is Florida we're talking about.

I was unclear, evidently. That was my point. I better proof that.

ETA It says what I want it to. There was a post right after mine that was more direct. Saying they made a choice suggests they could as well be gay or closet homosexuals. 

Maybe I just should have gone concise and direct in the way you do.

I received my first Trump campaign text spam:

 

Quote

From Trump: NEVER SURRENDER

I will always love you for supporting me.  

Unity Peace. MAGA

 

I wonder if "Fuck off, weirdo" is going to get me on a list.

Morning Consult has a 1.8 star rating (out of 3 stars) from FiveThirtyEight, ranked 116th on its pollster rankings.

The actual data is paywalled

1 to 3 star width? 

I only like star systems that go to eleven.

I usually reply with go fuck yourself, cunt.

I replied to my latest Ted Cruz spam with "Go fuck yourself, you treasonous simp."  Immediate response of "You have successfully been unsubscribed."

That's right, Cruz's campaign spam reacts to keywords to automatically unsubscribe you.  I'd like to think "treason" and "simp" are on that list as being so frequently used that they serve as red flags.

Yea when you create those messages you can put more keyword options than STOP as a choice to unsubscribe. I’ve only gotten two or three this cycle and instead of telling them to Fuck off, which helps them narrow their list, I just ignore

Radical republicans are paying rappers to promote the “Kamala isn’t black” narrative and to not vote for her.

The problem is these are the shittiest of shit rappers and they are getting massacred by everyone regardless of race in the replies.

Shiiiiit

They don't get the joke.

From Reddit. It's going to be very, very difficult to get away from this:

image.thumb.png.57b3322fa61f0ee766d10c5a82eac030.png

I'm also seeing a lot of rumors that Trump doesn't know what to do with Vance. He might just launch him if at all possible - the catch being they need to do so before the deadline for the parties to submit their candidates to the states. 

There's a high likelihood that they have already done that. If so then they are fucked and are stuck with him.

I hope he doesn’t drop Vance because he will pick up Haley and that will cost Democrats a few votes from right leaning independents who right now are going with Harris. I don’t think the impact will be huge, but 1% is critical.

I don't know where the venue is and I don't know Atlanta well, but I do wonder how many Trumpsters will hear "Downtown Atlanta" and assume it's too dangerous to go.

They’ll pay people to attend to make the rally look similar in size. We know how this works.

don't give him a pass on this. he's just a horrible person who looks down on other people - for a whole host of reasons. My future BIL quipped while drunk one time, "Parents are just better people." I think there are a lot of people who have had children that feel that they are simply better humans by virtue of having had children - most just don't say it out loud. Even fewer say it on a microphone while running for office. 

I am a parent of two and I can say I am not better. Being a parent is like becoming blind at 30 in a world with no braille or white canes and trying to find your way around. I am just guessing what will make my boys solid humans. My wife and I do our best we can that day. Constantly second guessing our decisions. I am positive I am screwing something up while hoping I don't. People that use kids as some sort of reflection of their value are insane. You really don't know if you did a good job for 30 years or so.

I recommended that they find a cactus, light it on fire, then fuck themselves in the ass with the flaming cactus until the darkness comes.

 

I haven't heard back yet.

Okay weird, again

 

Huh.  So....to be clear....we're getting unsolicited advice on "how to be a man" and "what a man would do" from a dude who got his current wife by stalking her, deflating her tires so she'd have to get a ride home with him, all while he was already married.  Dude.  Richard Simmons and Liberace were more qualified to lecture people on "how to be a man" than that chunk of shit.

I have a son.  If I had to give him shorthand advice on "what would a man do," it would start with "do the opposite of everything Jesse Watters has ever done."
