  1. This tweet still gets better and better with each 5 star commit.

  2. There is a wannabe handler involved who is anti-Texas because they won’t deal with him (and they don’t need to) and probably a “relative” to boot. That’s why the LSU idiots think they’re getting him in the end. They don’t understand, or want to understand, that the landscape has shifted. Giving some shady dipshit $75k in a bag isn’t going to change things for a player that doesn’t want to be near that element and has the promise of a much better arrangement that he controls for himself. Someone can feel free to tell those stupid motherfuckers accordingly. They’re going to be hinting at a switch for him for four more months as their contact strings them along.

  4. And I'm going to say something as someone who has been a part of losing Republican campaigns--I've heard this talk before. I heard exactly this when I was a very low-level volunteer guy working on George Bush's campaign in 1992. I heard this when I was hustling for Bob Dole as a CR in 1996. "Yeah--it's ok if Clinton wins because we're still going to have the Senate . . . ." Now, I'm going to tell you that such rationalizations didn't usually start coming out into October. But still--I've heard exactly this before. We were fucked in 1992 and 1996, and we damned well knew it. But here's the thing--the GQP is even more fucked now. And they don't know it. In the 1990s, the Republican Party was still a real political party. It had policy positions that it wanted to advance. It had ideas with which its supporters agreed. So you could go to them and say "but so long as we keep the Senate and the House, our ideas and policy positions will still be advanced (or at least not completely frustrated)." And shit--that was especially true with the Great Triangulator in the White House. So you could still motivate people who knew they were going to lose the White House to go out and vote in the down-ballot races. The GQP today isn't a political party. It doesn't have a single ideology or a single set of policy positions. It has a single cult of personality. The less-engaged will stay home because it's not fun to get your teeth kicked in. They don't fucking care about the Senate or the House or the state legislature. If it's not Trump, they don't give a shit (as they've repeatedly shown in midterms and special elections).

  5. Well, the 2024 season comes with a lot of changes for South Austin. My dad turned 80, I got married, my daughter goes off to college, and later this season I turn 50. But some things remain constant, like OU still sucking, HEB never being open, and the opening weekend of the college football season making me feel like a kid. So, yeah, we’re doing this again. From Northwest Austin (yeah, yeah, my username hasn’t checked out since 2005), heading out for an early workout . . . TEXAS!!!!

  8. Again, let them call her stupid and unqualified. Remember, she's the DEI candidate because she's a woman and she's black and Indian (well, she picks which one she wants to be). The worse they get, the better it is for Kamala. People have to be tired of this already. One side stays negative, the other talks about the future. Which side would you want to be a part of? Also, we're really bringing back early 00s content as memes. I guess when Kamala wins she can post All Your Base Are Belongs to Us.

  9. *Laughs knowingly in Italian* Before I lost a good chunk of weight, we were visiting my aunt and uncle in Rome... at the time, I had let my hair grow out longer. Upon seeing my hair, my aunt said, "I like your hair... it makes you look less fat"

  12. Lol, this is every Asian mom, aunt, and grandmother. Plus you get the added bonus as you're chowing down on the sweet with a comment of "Have you gained weight?"

  13. And then, it turns out there’s a surprising muse for the new dump-on-Trump approach. He’s a conservative who’s written for The Atlantic: George Conway. He used to be married to Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway. And during his years of observing his ex-wife’s boss, he gathered an arsenal of insights about how to make fun of Trump in a way that gets under his skin. And he tried them out before anyone else was doing it.

  14. Here we go. Brazilian court orders suspension of Xitter. Social media platform to be blocked by ISPs because it did not appoint legal representative in allotted time https://www.theguardian.com/technology/article/2024/aug/30/elon-musk-x-could-face-ban-in-brazil-after-failure-to-appoint-legal-representative The court records are secret but it's believed this has to do with Musk's disinformation campaign and possibly fomenting revolution on behalf of former President Bolsonaro

  17. I thought Jamelle Bouie had a good take on it. tldw: She did fine. Tim did fine. The questions sucked and were asked primarily to get KH to respond to narratives set up by other journalists. He laid out how he would question a presidential candidate if he had the opportunity with questions aimed at how that person would conceptualize the presidency.
