  1. But none of this will apply to wealthy, white men and their progeny. Let's go line-by-line: Education -- who cares? Their kids will continue to go to St. Mark's and ESD and Greenhill and Kinkaid, etc. These schools will simply tack on $8K/yr to ensure the "wrong kind" still can't get in even with vouchers. Sex -- rich kids will have access to all the rubbers they need. Or, Mommy/Daddy will have the means -- as will the girl in question -- to send the girl over state lines to "take care of the problem." Masturbation -- best of luck. Porn is readily accessible just about everywhere. The only people who think blocking PornHub blocks off all porn access to Texas teens are 80+ geriatrics living in Abilene. Guns -- they've already got multiple modified AR-15's for plinking hogs and what-not at the ranch. REALLY LOUDLY FOR THOSE OF YOU IN THE BACK: THE RULES DON'T FUCKING MATTER TO THESE PEOPLE -- THEY'RE FOR POORS, OR MINORITIES OR PEOPLE WITH VAGINAS -- NOT RICH, WHITE DUDES WITH MICRO-PEENS
  2. Whenever you need it, honestly. At least that gives you an option in the event your #1 just isn't getting it done. I think Vegas rolled through three goalies in last year's Cup run. (Just looked it up, only played two but the goalie who made the most regular season starts wasn't one of them. Can't remember if he was benched late in year or wasn't able to get back from injury.) Vegas also traded for Jonathan Quick just in case. We've decided to roll with Otter and if something is wrong with him, we fall back on ... Wedgewood? Woof.
  3. That dude could use a bullet in his brain.
  4. I love Jim Nill. But how he (or anybody) could think Scooter Wedgewood as the #2 on a Cup contender was a good idea is fucking beyond me.
  5. Stars should’ve scored nine goals tonight. Goaltending still shitty. Otter better figure this shit out or we are going out first round at the hands of Avalanche or Jets.
  6. My son is home from school and had never seen the first Dune. We watched it last night and plan to go see Dune Part 2 on Friday afternoon. Glad I rewatched because I'd forgotten a lot of the first one. Since seeing the first one, I've watched parts of David Lynch's Dune on HBO and couldn't remember what was in one of the movies but not the other. Anyway, son LOVED Dune and said it was so much better than he expected.
  7. All of this is going to be strung along and will not see any sort of resolution before Election Day. If Biden wins, it's game on and Trump likely starts seeing some justice on some of this shit. If DOTARD wins, he'll wave his hand on Day 1 after taking office in Jan 2025 and it will all disappear like tears in the rain. Or a Mickey D's fart in the wind.
  8. Why not? We've already got these. Just gotta shrink 'em down a little further.

  10. I won't argue with that except to say the only app you listed that kids really use is Snapchat, maybe some Instagram. The rest are boring or for old people.
  11. I saw a piece a long time -- might've been on 60 Minutes -- that said the version of TikTok that PRC people get is WAY different than the one the rest of of the world gets. I think this is it: https://www.cbs.com/shows/video/S0bgsSTHv87osLyzWtLXib0kgmTYBc1B/ Interesting quote from piece above: "It's almost like (Chinese company ByteDance) recognizes that technology's influencing kids' development and they make their domestic version a spinach TikTok, while they ship the opium TikTok to the rest of the world."
  12. That was my knee-jerk reaction. Swam was weapons-grade stupid IIRC. GRU, Donkey and the rest of them seem mostly intelligent. They're just disingenuous agents of chaos if not agents for foreign governments entirely.
  13. So the House has passed a bill that could potentially ban TikTok in the US. Chuck Schumer is non-committal on what the Senate will do with regard to this legislation. Personally, I could care less about the app itself. If it went away tomorrow, I wouldn't miss it. My kids, and their peers, however. Oy vey. This seems like potentially dangerous policy for the Democrats in a monumental election year like 2024. Thoughts?
  14. More Boeing issues. This time it's the 777. Company lost $4B overnight. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13190091/United-Boeing-jet-bound-San-Francisco-forced-landing.html
  15. Meanwhile, this is happening: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13189443/Candace-Owens-french-lady-brigitte-macron-born-man.html
  16. Every accusation and all that ...
  17. Same, up until the football inclusion. Used to be a big boxing fan but that pretty much went away after Mike Tyson bit off part of Evander Holyfield's ear. Never been a fan of UFC. Imagine having that fuckstick as your grandfather.
  18. Jesus, that's frightening stuff in all honesty. Apparently, there's a Dallas chapter (yay!). I looked up this Nate Fischer guy, who supposedly started or is big in the Dallas chapter. I assumed I'd have some common acquaintances but so far, nope. He's allegedly a far-right venture capitalist who partially owns a Texas-based ammunition company. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/sep/13/far-right-nate-fischer-ammunition-us-government-contract?fbclid=IwAR1HXSrMVwGJmblfWEfMxpQGp_Ezs5m62UnvFR_266hFTxWBd3ARFsYO0cg He posted this pic on his personal Facebook page, presumably this was made by one of his kids:
