  1. Why do they have to be college grads? Feels like they are cutting out most of their aspiring hires.
  2. So, um, when do people start defending themselves? Because it’s got to start soon. These masked assholes are violently assaulting innocent people. There’s going to be a breaking point and I’m a bit shocked it hasn’t happened already.
  3. So explain to me why he isn’t eligible for catapult?
  4. Well yeah, but this is misrepresenting the facts. Shocker.
  5. Already at the bar. Fuck it. One of my favorite baseball experiences ever was when the Cubs were delayed 4 hours and I got hammered at Murphy’s Bleachers with an aggy who kept buying everyone shots. One of the few good ones.
  6. Is this a thing comedians do now? I’m not huge into the podcast world, other than some politics and every once in a while a smartless episode or something. I’ve never understood who has the time to listen to these 3+ hour long interviews. Wait, are all Rogan bros long haul truckers?
  7. Ok, but for the sake of this thread (and my question), it seems like focusing their energy on a topic that could affect 24 million people when about 180 million people get their healthcare through their employers...
  8. Dumbshittery
  9. Right. As I understand it, the issue the Dems are rallying around in this shutdown is the extension of ACA tax credits. This isn't about employer-provided insurance, it's about those who get their insurance via the ACA marketplace, which in 2025 is about 24 million people.
  10. He keeps using those words. I do not think they mean what he thinks they mean.
  11. Helobious Saturday night
  12. For real, what is the Dems obsession with the healthcare message? Is it because Obamacare is the only thing they have won on in like 20 years?
  13. Well, for shitbag Rs (an admittedly huge volume of people) yes. But for those that can be persuaded to vote D, I think @Vegas64 has it pretty dialed above. Attach Rs to continued high prices and not being able to keep the government open. Those can be mutually exclusive, but just tell people prices are going to go even higher because the government is shut down. It's not like you have to be able to prove that. Just say it.
  14. I never even got to go to Liberty Lunch. Dammit.
  15. This. The fact that the Dems think Joe Public that gets their health insurance from obamacare has any idea what that means shows how out of touch they are.
  16. This sweet girl is crossing the rainbow bridge today. She was technically my in-law’s dog, but we raised her as a puppy and she also spent the last two months of her life with us exclusively when the in-laws couldn’t really take care of her anymore. She was two months shy of her 14th bday, so she had a full life. One of the sweetest labs I’ve ever known. Love you Cray.
  17. This is a great distillation of the magats crying about cancel culture and free speech. This can be applied in so many instances.
  18. They can focus on policy on the back end, but in order to get in control (legally), they have to play the game as it exists now. And that is NOT talking about policy. That is dumbing it down to appeal to the most basic dumbass voter.
  19. I was coming to post something similar. I think the Dem strategy of using healthcare as their battle cry in this is falling on deaf ears. Maybe it's just me, but in my world, no one is walking around talking about healthcare. I don't think most people even understand what a shut down is or what the healthcare argument is about. If I were the Dems, I would be just hammering the fact that the Rs control the government entirely and they shut it down. Full stop. That's the argument. They are so inept that they can't keep the government they fully control open. Prices are still high. Don't vote for these dopes again. But nope, we are going to try and get into the weeds on a tax credit for healthcare that 95% of the nation doesn't even understand. Cool.
