  1. What we lawyers would’ve advised a year ago is irrelevant. Ask yourself what Dotard would want. That’s the law now.
  2. Jimmy said keep your “it’s over” out of his thread. I think we should. Not because it isn’t over, it totally is, but because we should have at least one thread where we see what it would’ve been like to show real fight before it was over.
  3. This is why this country is fucked. Dems have been screaming forever that the right lives off the Big Lie. To some extent that was true in the before times, but we've seen for a decade that this is unquestionably true now. We've seen that truth is no defense, that more speech is not the antidote, and sunlight is clearly not an effective disinfectant. So what is the left doing about it? Fuck all. The only path here was (it's over, everyone needs to internalize that) to be better than them at the same game. Flood the zone with bigger fucking lies. Do it about every asshole who puts an (R) next their name or writes or says anything positive about someone with an (R) next to their name. Scortch the earth with lies so outrageous that Fox News has to take significant time away from spreading their lies to addressing the left's. Now they control every lever of power, and can weaponize government, even that pathway is closed. Speech is dangerous now. It has started with taking livelihoods because you've dared defy the state's preferred ideas. Soon it'll be freedom. Then lives. I hope @troph is OK.
  4. EGAT has been a complete waste of time, if you're looking for Texas Football analysis, for quite some time. The greatest enjoyment I got from that cast last year was thinking about all the money lost by that gambler he had on before the first Geogia game.
  5. That's why you bounce your access off 9 different substations throughout the world and 2 satellites.
  6. Either you don't undersand the English language, or are an unrepentant liar. We know all too well his beliefs. We know yours, as well.
  7. If the Peach Bowl refs had been XII, Taaffe gets called for targetting and we likely lose. I'm not saying that was clearly not targetting, but if any call was "controversial" we got the short end with XII refs.
  8. Lotta theories flying around. I guess folks just can't admit they don't know shit about fuck.
  9. Sark probably thinks Arch’d miss those targets, too, and we’d be looking at several losses on backward passes and a few fumbles. I know i’d stay away from those throws. He needs to sit. May need to transfer to SMU.
  10. Sit the fucker. He’s not right in the head.
  11. NO! Fuck that shit. That is how we got here. Trumptards understand this is a war for the soul of the nation. Libs whine about how mean they are. That's how we fucking got here. Rid yourself of that shit. Truth is irrelevant. Power is all. Learn that or just go ahead and line up for a boxcar. New truth: Fox News advocates extermination of the homelss by any means. Repeat it. Rinse. Repeat it again. FUCK THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS BY ANY MEANS POSSIBLE. Or just go gentle into the night. Those are your choices. Half measures are tantamount to surrender.
  12. I live in Montgomery County, so I'm pretty sure every flag I see this week will be at half mast. I did notice that lot of folks put their pvc-pole flags up in their lawns again, though I have one neighbor I'm pretty sure just forgot to take it down after Labor Day.
  13. Correct. Every non-trumper I know offline still thinks “this too shall pass,” and “2026 will be the turning of the tide.” Any mass realization that it’s too late will be years if not a decade after that point came and went (nov 2024, at the very latest).
  14. It's way past time the left stopped holding itself to that, or really any, standard. That's the first step to making the media have to treat the left and the right equally. Unfortunately, that'll never happen, because the left loves to "but ackshually" and purity test itself more than it loves winning and taking/keeping power. Power is ALL that matters. Truth is irrelevant. Facts are irrlevant. Fairness, kindness, decency and so on, completely irrelevant. No one is coming to save us. We're bordered by oceans and two countries that are, combined, less than half our size by population and about 1/7th our GDP. No one will stop whatever our holocause looks like. No one will prevent whatever the worst impulses of the hateful Right triumphs over the coming decades. I give us little chance to change course, but if there is any chance, the left has to start playing by the rules in place right now. Learn Calvinball and play to win for a change.
  15. People keep thinking that bringing awareness to his despicable words will have an effect. These are things our right-leaning neighbors want to say, but are afraid to. This murder will only embolden them. They can dodge our remonstrances in the fashion of Incredulity and the hateful newcomers coming in hot with eye rolling takes about how hateful we are, blowing right past the words we are actually saying as they build up the courage to espouse bigotry. Nothing fucking matters except power. The right is lost to the power of hate. The grifters running our government only gain more power through his death. There is nothing good about any of this because the flow of power is accelerating into the hands of people who will exterminate their opposition when they feel safe to do so.
  16. For the record, I was "defending" a generic rotting corpse's governing ablities vs. our current fucktard. I gave a speech in a class (in the CMA, IIRC) on the virtues of The Communist Manifesto, though, I will admit, I tailored it from a centrist perspective. That semester I also wrote a paper on the probable unlikeliness of Jesus's divinity, though I was hesitant to go as far as @BrickHorn and others would have and argue along the lines of a Christ myth theory (that JHC was not a real person, but merely a symbol meant to lead one on a journey for truth). What's the point of me saying this? Get over yourself. You don't have a monopoly on fuckall, let alone how anyone should think about historical figures. Your posts of late have been the worst kind of purity testing pablum, neither insightful nor particularly interesting. Get a new schtick.
  17. Reagan in his current state would be 1,000,000x the president Dotard is.
  18. The voters knew what they wanted, and they're getting it quickly.
  19. Yep. This is the most entertaining page of the last several.
  20. He really doesn't look that bad. Y'all had my hopes up. Unfortunately, he looks and sounds good enough for another term or two.
  21. Yep. He speaks moron, and does it well. Maddeningly well.
  22. That's actually a comforting video to watch, w/r/t whether it was nerves or something more troubling. It seems Arch just needs to go back out there and be comfortable regardless of the jerseys the other guys are wearing.
  23. I’ve only read the last two pages of this thread, and based on those I’m not clicking on the first 8. As retarded as some of y’all apparently are, I’m assuming Daniel Day Lewis, Meryl Streep, and Gary Oldman have been mentioned.
  24. I'm with you everywhere on the field except inside the opponent's five.
