    And the people in his gerrymandered district will vote for him again. This asshole is my rep. :/

    I mean yeah. They had to split sugarland into pieces. Didn’t want all those Asians being able to vote for a representative in one bloc. Gotta make sure they mix them in with like minded people from Bay City and Matagorta.

    This may be Trump’s greatest contribution to our society.  Its like a progressive tax on being stupid.  The stupider you are, the greater the tax becomes in relation to your means.

    Taxes are supposed to go towards things that are a collective societal benefit.

    Speaking of which, as a Tesla shareholder (I know), I voted against all their board compensation measures today.  I've never voted as a shareholder for any company before today.  Fuck you Elon.  But I do love my car.  I got it before he went nuts!

    “I liked Trump from the Apprentice” isn’t the flex you think it is sir.

    I've had it explained to me by some one-issue, pro-Palestinian young voters that while it's true Trump is worse, Biden isn't doing anything to stop the genocide in Gaza so he's just as bad. Combine that with crushing debt, little upward mobility, no ability to buy a home, and the possibly having to live with their parents again, they really don't care if things get blown up because "maybe that's necessary to give the country's attention and change things". Again, the mentality of someone who can't see the forest through the trees. They don't care if Trump will do what he says he will do because Biden isn't stopping a genocide. They're fine with burning it all down if they don't get their way. And they're all too stupid to see how they're being played. 

    Ask them how it’s working out for Argentina. Or in Russia, or China, where they have dictators.

    While I agree that the young people of today need to open their eyes and realize that denying support for Biden over Trump over a single issue will likely result in the Trump being elected again, I am afraid that you'll have to pin the 2017-2021 national nightmare on folks like me who voted Libertarian or those who could not vote for either R or D candidate in 2016. My dumb ass pretty much voted all R in national elections since my first vote (Reagan '84). My eyes were opened the day after the 2016 election. I have never voted an official straight ticket until the 2018 election cycle when I voted straight D despite not supporting all D policies. We have to stem the tide of the Neo-fascists even if we have to hold our noses to vote for a candidate that may mot be perfect but is at least not GQP or GOP who refuse to grow a spine and continue to allow GQP issues to be presented as truth.

     

    I didn’t vote for either candidate as a protest. You’re not to blame, man, nor am I. Particularly if you’re in Texas like me. There is a lot of blame to go around. Comey. Russia.

    There was a time I wanted kids.  It didn't happen but, in hindsight, I'm glad.  This country is on one hell of a self-destruction bend that the younger generations will have to suffer through for decades.  I should only have 20/25 years to witness it.

    I was indifferent to kids, but my wife wanted them and made it very clear early on it was a dealbreaker. I wasn’t anti-kid, I just believed I could have a happy life with or without them. We had our son in 2017. He has changed my life for the better and brings me immeasurable joy on a daily basis. He and my wife are the best things that have ever happened to me, and nothing else is even close. 
     

    and with all that being said, knowing what I know now, I wonder if I had a do over if I’d make a different decision. I’m not saying I’d make a different decision. But I’d have to think about it. Thats the level of dread and fear I have for his future.

  7. I love how she’s pissed that government subsistence went directly into her pocket. Literally helping her succeed and she’s pissed.

     

    also, she’s completely making that story up. You’re telling me a migrant with a food card is going to select what is almost certainly an expensive AF vegan restaurant? Over 3 dollars at McDonald’s? Horseshit.

    If Trump wins this fall, and it turns out the college kids sat out in large numbers or voted for Trump, these dumb shits will truly deserve what will happen.  I will just take my sizable tax cuts, buy a overseas residence and a new popcorn machine, and watch with fascination at the flood of "I can't believe the leopards ate my face" outrage on TikTok. 

    This would be me if I didn’t have a kid about to enter 1st grade.

    Thursday morning update from Jabba:

    Pessimism is the word of the hour in UT's recruitment of TCU defensive tackle transfer Damonic Williams.

    Per a source late last night, there were conversations between Texas and Williams on Wednesday night. From what I can gather, Williams is looking for an incredible one-year NIL package that would make Walter Nolan blush.

    Will he get it?

    That remains to be seen, but it almost certainly won't come from the Longhorns. I've been told for more than a year that the Longhorns would be willing to go huge on a "Jordan Addison type" player if the coaches thought that the addition would be season-changing, but Williams is not viewed as that type of player and Texas isn't going to completely turn its entire NIL model on its head in an effort to get him.

    Perhaps the NIL package being sought after will flatten out because none of the four teams under consideration will go as high as the Williams camp is looking for one of them to go, but at the moment it feels like the Longhorns aren't going to be the team.

    I wasn't given the name of a projected leader, but it might be OU. The dark-horse might be Missouri, if only because maybe the Tigers will be willing to do anything to get Williams. 

    Regardless, it feels like a Texas and Williams are at an impasse as of Wednesday night.

    I don’t have inside info here, but you’re telling me OU has the money and Texas doesn’t for a position of need? When Texas has already budgeted for a high end DT? Sure, Jan Ketch. 
     

    that fat fuck heard we weren’t confident and then. Completely fabricated an NIL reason as justification.

    If we start Mukuba and Derek Williams, I think that's an upgrade at both safety spots. Obviously the concerns at CB are warranted. 

    I think if we get a consistent pass rush it will make whoever plays deep look much better. Trey Moore, Burke, Vasek or someone else causing a little havoc in the pocket will make even Taafe look good back there.

    This fucking guy.  I just looked at his official FEC biography and he has the Texas A&M University School of Law, graduating in 2002.  That school did not exist.  It was Texas Wesleyan and A&M bought it in 2013.  On his OFFICIAL FUCKING GOVERNMENT RESUME.  

    Also, that resume has him as a Corps member.  So, a genuine weirdo.

    Trump walked all over her in that farce of an interview a few months ago.  Maybe she learned from it. 

    Trump walks over everyone. He walked all over Biden and Hillary in debates. I’m not going to fault her for that, she tried to push back. The fact of the matter is Trump walks all over everyone. You have to be a male and screaming back at him these days, and when you do that he walks the interview.

    Fuck, sounds like someone did do their own research.  

    This is what pisses me off so much, and I realize it's a pet peeve. Doing your own research is NOT WATCHING SOMEONE ELSE'S UNSUBSTANTIATED YOUTUBE VIDEO. Mother. Fuck. And much of America doesn't even fucking get that. It's not even as intellectually rigorous as motherfuckers who go to Web MD and diagnose themselves with fucking brain tumors.

    Seriously, why did NowThis go away? Pretty sure most of us don't really care if you like being pegged, no kink shaming.

    Closeted people aren't all comfortable when they come out unintentionally, regardless if it's a fetish or a sexual preference.

    100% agreed and I had that basically written out and deleted it. Pegging fetishists are WAY up the rankings ladder ahead of these moronic MAGA types.

    I was implying that I haven't seen somebody commit Surly Seppuku quite so spectacularly as this. Those were better days when a simple pegging fetish was enough to "banish" somebody to the hinterlands. Goddamn this simulation.

    It's not seppuku. See my post above. There were tons of these posters during Covid, and they all still post here...on the football board.
