  1. They're fine. They don't know any better.
  2. DOGE cutting the agencies that have always accomplished the most while being given the least. Some might even call these agencies... efficient? Oh, the irony.
  3. I'm sure there will be a huge yearly budget dedicated to preventing people from pissing on his grave. It will just be another one of those costs DOGE chooses to ignore. They may even hire some of the fired NPS rangers for the jobs.
  4. Walking to the corner store every Sunday so my mom could make a long-distance collect call to her mom in California. I'd sit on the metal parking stop at wait to tell my grandma hello. According to Google Map, the corner store is gone now, but it was still up in 2008.... pay phone was gone. Every time I see a payphone or a shabby corner store, I get a tiny gut punch.
  5. Shoulda sold the coupon on eBay. Seriously though, that sucks... sorry.
  6. I'm always torn what to do with cards like this. Sell it now while people are paying a premium or hold onto it, so I have something better than their base rookie. I always end up deciding I don't really need the cash and hold onto the card. It's also how I end up selling a /25 Wander Franco for $3. Nice pull.
  7. Probably the wrong phrase, I assumed she knew what she was talking about and that I was in the dark about some new teaching program. It was foolish of me to ever assume she has any knowledge that would come close to my 25+ years in the classroom. She was a blithering old moron and I should have taken it in accordingly. Lazy, stupid, and evil is their creed, and I'll never doubt that again.
  8. Do you think it would matter? I could use some realistic optimism right now. Lately, I've felt completely subject to the whims of evil men and the idiots that give them power.
  9. I seriously gave this ditchpig the benefit of the doubt. I thought she was talking about some program or curriculum called "A1". Nope. She's just an old woman who's too lazy to do the work to even learn the name of what she's talking about.
  10. I mean, seasonal allergies are sitting right there, fucking up EVERYONE'S life right now, and this dipshit wants to tackle autism?

    LBGTQ

    So here's the thing... most of their lives, those 2 fencers competed in mixed events. Competing in a women's bracket is probably something she has never done until college. This is just her flying her bigot flag, and getting $5K + attention. Congrats, I guess.
  12. You, Sir, are not familiar with the way banana republics function?
  13. We should sign his dick.
  14. Yep. Stay away. Great concept. First 8-12 episodes are really compelling. But every episode after that just pissed me off. They're telling a really interesting story, but they're dragging it out.
  15. https://x.com/NewsWire_US/status/1907904151494840821 Trump is never going to give Ted his balls back. Ted might as well go full lackey and see how far that gets him.
  16. Yeah, it's the Dems that run on identity politics. Meanwhile, the Trump guy in my neighborhood has 7 flags attached to his fence. Nobody has their identity wrapped up in politics more than a Trump supporter. If you want to say that the Dems haven't met the needs of middle class, I won't argue, but if you want to say the Dems are the ones who are too focused on identity politics... well, that's bullshit. Any Trump vote who says they didn't vote Dem because of the identity politics is using that as an excuse for believing all the bullshit about immigrants or trying to hide that they hate women.
  17. First, they came for the trailer parks...
  18. You forgot the stupid War on Education. I admit I have an oversized bias and personal connection to this one, but goddamn if that hasn't been a key part of all the other stupid Wars on _____. War on Critical Thinking is probably more appropriate. That covers a lot of bullshit (CRT for example), but the fight is happening in education.
  19. Two more seasons?! There's no way I can take twenty more episodes of this. I want to know what happens, but I might be better served just reading it on Wikipedia after the series wraps up.
  20. What makes me rage is the fact that they can basically say, "Yeah, so what?" and they still choose lying. It's not like anything will come out of it. Wouldn't it be bigger big dick energy to own it and keep your job anyway? This country.
  21. "Pole? I coulda swore I saw 3 poles. I'm just glad I only hit one of them."
  22. I bet you're right. But that's because Republicans will elect any piece of shit that makes it okay to be a piece of shit. Except Greg Abbott, they'll never elect a piece of shit with a broken dick as president.
  23. We've binged into season 3... we're a couple episodes in and I need this story to get wrapped up. I really enjoy it, but it's starting to drag. Is the plan to make a limited run, or turn this into something that lasts years and years. I'm in for this season and maybe one more... after that I'm out. Does anyone know what plans Showtime has for it?
