  1. I like that Reacher is who they think of when they imagine Dotard, and themselves trying to save America from equality.
  2. Good that your relatives aren't closed minded enough to indoctrinate others in a with us or against us mentality. Critical thinking is under attack. Used to see trans and drag queens hooking it on Friday and Saturday nights along Broad Street in Richmond. It's not like they bother anybody--only the bigots mess with them. The people that really care want to legislate morality in an attempt to hide their self inflicted shame. The only rule should be to only involve consenting adults.
  3. It's designed to keep you there, but it's interesting. There may be a ferry that takes you to both Alexandria and Georgetown, but you'd have to look that up, and it's not the cheapest. You may even be able to take it to the wharf and see a Nats game, which is a good experience.
  4. So many enemies, again, makes me wonder how he's going to cheat. He's barely trying to win straight up.
  5. and now he won't have anyone reeling him in, as in there won't be a Mike Pence saying no. Going to be a bumpy ride to see what happens if Dems don't win or defend their win.
  6. Who is expected to fund their socialized social security, medicare and medicaid? They should be told good luck with your diabetes, it gets easier with amputations.
  7. If they're anything like Uvalde, they'll continue voting Republican, even at the expense of their offspring. Leopards faces person woman man camera tv whatnot.
  8. I'd love to slip a bookmarker with a picture of a gold toilet in a stack of Trump bibles, along with the following scripture: “I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ’em by the pussy. You can do anything.” Trump, 1:1, 2005
  9. Mostly, it's just the rich fearing they'll lose power. In a Democracy, they have to divide the population to get the necessary votes to support their 1% rule. Racism is a way to do that. The NFL had to enact the Rooney rule so that Black coaches could get a shot at being interviewed. Fucking interviewed, not hired but seen. That's America in a nutshell. We have to implement laws to get a fair shake, which gets convoluted. Even slogans such as Black Lives Matter get twisted to all lives matter, despite all lives not being being threatened. We say there's two different laws--rich and poor, while really there's a third type doled out to minorities. I have not been threatened at work by minorities--not teaching, nor working as staff at universities. When I attend staff appreciation parties, I am surprised how many minorities are maintenance vs administrators. It's almost like there are roles for minorities, but it's primarily pushing a stick. And that's how we boost our equality based employment numbers. When we discuss welfare in this country, it's in regards to minorities. Storming the capitol on Jan 6th is cool, but taking a knee in silent protest is un American. Muhammad Ali saying fuck the draft was un American, while Trump deferring 5 times is commander in chief material. RW snowflakes moaning woe is me after 400 + years of absolute dominance because equality protections, is boo freaking hoo.
  10. Coulda filed this under a thread titled A Story about a Pathetic Man's Fall Down. 82 years was more time than you deserved.
  11. So he runs the RNC like a mob boss--the Republican Party is basically the Republican crime family, that sends a cut to Dotard every time money comes in. And now on top of this, he's about to defraud his social media share holders, may have judges and congressmen in his pocket, is a convicted rapist and has a multitude of trials going on damn near simultaneously, got busted paying off a porn star (and others), has tax payers paying his security team for life, and is running again for president. DOJ, SCOTUS, anybody going to step up? And for anybody questioning whether he has judges in his pocket, he's arguing immunity for life because he was a president--and not just for past offenses, but so that he can continue breaking laws. Like right now, with his Truth Social scandal about to break. The problem with Gotti was that he didn't think big enough, unlike Putin, who is president for life. I wish the China thing mattered, I just can't see it with his followers. Their real anger is that we all don't follow them over the cliff. But Biden is soft on the border, so both sides.
  12. Trump is going to school Republicans on how he was able to bankrupt a casino. He should also have his own megachurch; the cross fits right into the first initial of his last name.
  13. Or when I go to Wholefoods and see a mound of individual potatoes wrapped in plastic. The way our recycling works is that if there's one piece of non recyclable plastic in the bin, then everything gets trashed. At work, in many buildings, just watch the maintenance guys dump both the trash and recycle baskets all in the same bin at night. Basically, if you don't stay on people, they won't do right. Which is exactly why regulation is needed. Greed is a crime by biblical standards, and a disease, especially when a few begin to rationalize poison for profit.
  14. It's Benghazi all over again. It won't stop until the election, and then, only if a Republican wins.
  15. Counterpoint--Trump pointed to how the polls all favored Hillary when he won, and how wrong and out of touch they were. But yeah, he'll now use the polls to scream "FRAUD," because it's all he's got.
  16. Making the trip this summer--mid June for 11 days. Have to go then, anniversary. Wife has been before so she knows and has seen most things. Doing the 3 day Barcelona, 4 day Madrid, 4 day Saville, so those are our bases. Great advice on here and am booking everything in advance, including trains. First thing is a foot tour in those three cities. Absolutely love Spanish artists, so looking forward to the Prado. Loathe Picasso, aside from early works. but can't wait to see El Greco, Antonio Lopez Garcia, Sorolla, Gris, Golucho, Isabel Quintanilla, Diego Velasquez and others. Would like to come back another time and explore cave art in Northern Spain and northern Portugal, or north of Lisbon.
  17. The media is damn near us now--the internet diluted facts and journalists, since it is mostly free and immediate. We quit buying newspapers and magazines for the most part, which forced them to go broke or downsize. Also, opinions in articles is actually something that foreign adversaries have targeted to poison the water, because Americans seem to give a shit about them enough to argue with bots and bad foreign actors posing as Steve or Joe. But society is to blame for the media being what it is, plus we allowed them to be bought up by a few American/Australian oligarchs. Also RW seemingly controls the airwaves with their incessant, loud whining and white victim mentality.
  18. Ford's Theater is one of my favs, with Lincoln's death bed across the street. Art galleries--SAM and Portrait Gallery, head to the top. Check out the tower in the Old Post Office--Trump couldn't buy it, so it remained public and free. Udvar-Hazy is bad ass. I love the National Zoo bird house and monkey house. but get there early or don't go. Also, if you get a chance, the Arboretum is awesome--with the bonsai trees and the original capital columns. I eat and drink on my side of town--best bbq (Texas 2Fifty and grab a beer at the market). Several other breweries nearby as well or get cheap food at Franklins Brewery. But this is Maryland, and you didn't come to DC to go to the Maryland suburbs. But if you're going to the National Arboretum, it's not too far away. Renwick gallery is pretty neat as well, and not far from you.
  19. Currently, we're banning books by American writers in parts of the good ol' USA. I'm down with banning foreign government spyware social networking platforms.
  20. Edit: Fuck my reading skills--they don't care. Facts and science aren't in their favor, so they create their own, which the press discusses at length.
  21. This along with publicly telling Haley's followers to fuck off tells me he's going all in on cheating again. I mean as long as he's still allowed to roam freely, this is what he does, who he is. It's why he's been married multiple times, filed bankruptcy multiple times, called governors, fake electors and led a march (from his car) to overthrow an election, etc. I wonder if rather than change the ballots, they can get voting rolls and cast duplicates so that they sow discord and then try and seize power or at least get Dem counties strategically tossed. Just trying to see how they're going to cheat this time, because they're definitely going to cheat. It's the Republican brand, and definitely Trump's.
