    Not a recommendation but more a "WTF"

    Why does Netflix think that J Lo is the right person to play some super smart data analyst that turns into a mecha fighting expert in some dystopian future?

    Has to be the least convincing casting since Cruise played "Jack Reacher"

    I keep thinking there will be a Rinos strike back at some point.

    There won't be.  The Nazi party will never de-Nazify.  Stop hoping that it will.

    Stop hoping that Repuglicans will ever come to their senses.

    The only thing they hate worse than libtards is losing to the libtards.

    Think about all of the Republican on Republican attacks we've seen over the last year, complete with the House Speaker batshittery.  

    When Trump loses again, shit will go down within the GQP - either it will be vicious and brief and Trumpanzees will be purged from leadership positions, or they'll try to give Trump a pseudo-victory lap, with the understanding that he and his family is out of power.  They aren't going to let a Trump hang around and emptying the RNC coffers for another four years after he loses this November - the down-ballot Republicans will revolt.  He will be the first Republican in a while to have his term book-ended by 8-year stretches of Democrats in the White House.  And the BMDs ain't going to let one of his sons, whether it's Tweedle Dee or Tweedle Dum, take over.

    There's a lot on the line regarding whether or not this company makes it. All those dildos walking around all day with earbuds in talking obnoxiously loud could really use this to accessorize their look and finally attain certified self-important douchebag status. 

    What about people walking through crowds, with their earbuds in talking obnoxiously loud  and saying things like

    • "if you're going to whack a rival, don't kill him in front of his family because that's in bad taste and I'm not going to support it and neither are the other bosses"
    • "No, I don't have the target in sight, you say he has the item in a backpack with a water bottle in the side pocket? What's the radius on that thing again if we find him? Do we need to clear the entire block or just get people across the street before it happens?"
    • "Look, I respect the fact that you are a doctor and by all accounts a fine surgeon, but if you are unable to do the penis reduction surgery, my wife and girlfriends are going to leave me because they are tired of having to use crutches the next day" 
    • "I make $10 million a year from filming my kid doing toy unboxing videos on YouTube, and another $5 million a year filming my wife for OnlyFans, so if you can think of another revenue stream that is as easy as spending a few hours a week filming my kid or my wife, I'm all ears."
    • "Look, I told Biden that Putin just likes to make empty threats to appease his people - I know he said he was going to drop a nuke on <insert whatever city you happen to be in> but I wouldn't be here if I thought he was serious.  Tell Joe that I'm in <insert whatever city you happen to be in> right fucking now.  I'm not worried about Putin."
    • "No, don't break his legs - we need him able to start in September against the Cowboys.  Break his wife's legs instead.  He'll get the picture."

    I have friends who would drop everything at a moment's notice to help me, no questions asked.  They are generous, donate to charities, and are raising what seem to be solid, well-adjusted children.  They are also almost assuredly voting for Trump.  Does this make them "bad?"

    My parents would give up their lives in a second for those that they love.  The household we grew up in was full of warmth and love and is the example I am trying to replicate for my family.  They are also almost assuredly voting for Trump.  Does this make them "bad?"

    I have brilliant co-workers who are phenomenal at building up a team, always make sure to share credit, and thrive in a culturally diverse work environment.  They are also almost assuredly voting for Trump.  Does this make them "bad?"

    What if we replace "bad" with "idoit" -  does that work?

    "Dangerously ignorant" is the term I would use (and have done so).  People will argue (and rightfully so) that these types who vote for Trump, who are normally good/generous, are just as bad as the "bad" Trump voters because the end result is the same - a vote for Trump is still a vote for Trump.

  5. The deep state wants to control your money so they can control YOU.

    The government should never be able to see how Americans spend their money or have the ability to turn off their spending power when they see fit.

    The idea of a Central Bank Digital Currency is terrifying!

    That’s why I’m supporting the CBDC Anti Surveillance State Act to BAN CBDCs.

    I bet she couldn't explain what all of that does if somebody put her on the spot.

    I think there’s a common misconception that when Trumpism inevitably dies, the GOP will do some kind of pendulum swing back to the party of Eisenhower and anyone who openly supported Trumpism will be denigrated and cast out.  In my opinion that is extremely unlikely.  Yes, they might (MIGHT) embrace less destructive policies/candidates, but theyll just shrug off Trumpists as a blip and not-representative, without at all alienating those voters.  They may not pander to the crazies, but they’ll do enough to keep them in the fold.

    Disagree with your final sentence somewhat because I think the gop endgame is to literally dismantle the constitution to stay in power. I don’t disagree that the average MAGA crowd lacks organizational ability, just that the trajectory of the party will substantially be any different.

    Trump is hurting the down-ballot candidates, both in terms of negative publicity and making the public weary of Republicans, but also in terms of finances.

    Republicans/Republicans are having fundraising issues here and there, not helped that Trump is trying to drain not only the RNC's coffers, but the down-ballot coffers by charging them a percentage if they want to use his likeness or endorsement.  Republican Presidential candidates in the past understood that you need to support down ballot candidates and they need to support you, because politics is local and stuff.  Those down ballot candidates are the ones filling out school boards, and they are the county dog catchers, city council members, etc. who are actually on the ground at the local level and walking the block and knocking on doors and talking to their Bible study groups and shaking hands at the Gold Corral to get voters out.

    When Trump loses again, there will be a real fight for power.  Just like in college football, BMDs don't like tossing large sums of money at losers, and Trump, Three Toes, Boobert, Gym Jordan, Butthead, Doctor Feelgood, Comer Pyle, etc. will be on thin ice if they keep backing Trump.  The GQP has course-corrected in the past when a strategy didn't win, and they will do so again, especially when the nutters mentioned above, as well as all of the others who are anti-abortion (and anti-contraception) won't shut the fuck up about abortion and contraception.

    People like Nikki are hedging their bets on the slim chance that Trump wins, but when he loses, the batshit Republicans wanting a theocracy better watch their corn holes and not stop at any toll booths.

    That lady has zero place in the GOP; WAY too introspective, intelligent, and reasonable.  She seems smart enough to figure it out soon enough.

    She's an old school Republican that knew how to work the religious nuts up in the primaries, but she was still able to read the room and know when to back off so that it didn't hurt the Republicans in the general elections.

    I watched 30 seconds of white people standing around in a shitty yard and gave up.  What happened?

    She basically admitted that she was suspicious of Hispanic people and that they are the only illegals here (ignoring Elon Musk and Co.).

    Well, she openly admitted it - she saw no need to ask for the documentation of the white guy because she could see he was white, it was just the Hispanics.

    I think back to that Senate hearing where all these fucking olds tried to take down Zuckerberg and he just toyed with them. These politicians can barely turn on a computer and are the wrong people to challenge these assholes.

    Now with AI, who the fuck is gonna step up and do something about this? Who can successfully challenge the authority of people like Elon, Zuckerberg, Altman, etc.? 

    If you want to challenge those three, ask them where the clit on a woman is.

    I've got this new diet plan, based on an old weight loss plan, that involves eating tape worms. They're just like gummy worms, only they'll eat all the bad inside stuff that's holding you back.  And you'll know that you're doing it right when you're crapping out worm parts.    

    I know some people I'd like to get on the tapeworm plan.

    I'd have no qualms about grifting the shit out of MAGA. I would sit back and laugh my ass off the entire time I was doing it. Just need an idea and a little initiative.

    So it's not dishonesty and stealing you are against, it's the audience that is being stolen from and lied to that matters. Mighty ethical of you, C-Man.

    Either you grift them all or you grift nobody. Like the EEOC said; Equal Employment Grifting Opportunity Commission.

    It is ethical.  Their own leaders are grifting the shit out of them, so why should the money be flowing into somebody's campaign coffers to keep some gaudy-looking Florida resort operating when it could be put to better uses like trying to lure Natalie Portman back to Austin, or wooing Sela Ward or Susanna Hoffs or making awesome tailgate parties or contributing to the wreath fund to buy future airplane banners?

    I will never forget when my buddy told me about Rogan's podcast and how good it was.  I listened to his interview with Glenn Greenwald for about 8 minutes and I immediately was like

    If you don't immediately understand this is a podcast for abject morons, you are the abject moron.

    For me, it was Rogan asking questions about the Apollo 11 landing.

    If the Soviets didn't question the landings, then some roided out idiot probably shouldn't be questioning them.


  12. Kyle Busch not getting penalized for deliberately wrecking him seems suspect.

    I disagree with Brakehard, I think Childress could beat up somebody other than Red Farmer. I think he could go a few rounds with Richard Petty.

    there are a lot of voters who aren't dumb but love Trump.  I know a few of these, and they have kind of given up all pretenses if they trust you.  They think the federal government is fatally flawed and needs to be broken and rebuilt no matter the cost.

    No, those voters you are talking about are fucking stupid. As mentioned, Trump had his chance to do that and didn’t.

    It’s like the Qanon idiots that actually believed Trump was going to lock up Hillary. He had four years to try something, but those morons didn’t understand that Hillary was useless behind bars, and that Trump was never going to try and even attempt to do anything about her.
