    I'm not going to argue that and really feel like we'll see the same things repeat if Biden wins the nomination.

    Biden doesn't have decades of hatred from the GOP and more than a few independents like Hillary had.

    Trump knows this.  That's why Trump is so fixated on Hunter - he's doing everything he can to gin up the same level of hatred and angst against Joe Biden as he tapped into with Hillary, and he and the Republicans just can't do it.

    The GOP is trying to implement a 100 year plan right now so they can maintain power after demographic change.

    No they aren't.    If they gave a shit about the demographic change, which is happening faster than they expected, things would be a lot different.  Instead, they are doing plenty of things that are turning off a shitload of young people, minorities, etc. and they have no care in the world.  

    Those two dozen or so Republicans that are retiring from Congress are not doing so for shits and giggles.

    Right now, the store is on fire thanks to them, and they are looting the cash registers as they run out the door.

    We have another 2 or 3 years before the Trumplicans will be able to completely manufacture evidence

    Trump administration leaks like a sieve, they can't keep anything quiet.

    I mean the weather forecast is so severe for both Austin & Houston that weather.com has no advisories up for either location.

    They don't want to spook the herd into jamming the highways to Houston and Dallas.

    Do we need to put out an APB on PhD?

    When/why did he chunk up the deuces?

    He met some guy who asked him to develop his app, so we might get phdhorn Weather 1.0 for our phones around March.

    That and he gets out on parole in March.

  6. Those of you interested in this stuff, there's a digital effects studio that puts out YouTube videos on why certain effects are good or bad.  Even though they are younger guys, they have a reverence for the old-school in-camera stuff, as well as things like Jackson's Lord of the Rings (which has a lot more practical sets than I thought).

    Yeah, it's mostly a reaction channel, but they actually will go in and do new effects to show how it could have been done, and because they are effects artists themselves, they get really in-depth on behind-the-scenes stuff.   They also do deep fakes, and they have stuntmen come in and discuss their stunts and how they are actually done.

    Warning:  Poorly-done CGI lips are like one of their biggest pet peeves.

    They have a massive amount of videos:

    HEB is coming to Lubbock this year and word is that 2 stores are coming to Amarillo in the future. Bring it the fuck on...

    Wow, that's going to shake things up in Lubbock.  I remember when I lived there, it was pretty much United or Albertsons, and both sucked.

    somebody posted some photos upthread of some shrapnel holes.  Yep

    And they looked external (as in shrapnel punching into the fuselage/wings, instead of exploding outward).

    The fact that the Iranian government was so quick to say they wouldn't be sharing the blackbox with Boeing/etc. was a sign as well.

    3 days of official state sanctioned mourning for a terrorist scumbag but let's see if the Iranian government will admit to the truth or continue their brazen lying about the cause. What an embarrassing display. 60 people die in a stampede at the funeral of the scumbag and now they shoot down a passenger jet. The value the Islamic government has for ordinary lives is nil.

    was this actually confirmed?  

    The US government didn't come out and say it, but a bunch of reporters with sources in the Iraqi government stated so, and the fact that the bases were completely in lockdown within 4 minutes of launch tends to give credence to that.

    Rough math says that the main missiles launched at Al Asad (Fateh-110) travel at Mach 3.5, with a range of 300km, so at max they were in the air for 4-5 minutes. That's not a long time to get 1,500 troops, plenty of whom were asleep, completely under serious protection at 1:45am.

    Interesting note: If the DOD is correct (yeah, I know), the four missiles that failed were fired at Erbil and were the Qiams (longer-range scuds), and the 6-10 fired at Al Asad were the Fatehs, shorter-range, truck-launched, and homegrown, and all hit Al Asad.

    donald trump i pay hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes GIF by Election 2016

    Thread has been open almost a full day and no mention of the stable genius that's so smart for not paying taxes? 

    Well the obvious answer is more tax cuts for the 1% and large American companies.
