  1. I also assumed it was a Texas kid committed to USC, fwiw.
  2. Outside of everyone rolling your eyes at "media scum" while you attempt to laughably accuse any other organization of bias, allow me to try and illustrate the big point here you seem to be missing. And it's obvious that you're missing it even though you've inadvertently outlined it in your post and don't seem to see the signifigance: The governor, who is calling parents asking who to blame Losers, said that there was plenty of notice and resources sent. The mayor, who slept through it, says he has no clue what the governor is talking about. Two sides are saying opposite things, and one will be shown to be a blatant lie, and that motherfucker should face consequences. Now, it's rather obvious who you think the liar is, but whatever, either way, the sunlight means someone deserving should face some fucking consequences, and that's a fucking good thing. But I guess you can go back to finding a solution that "brings back the victims" since "that's what the families of the victims need." I guess maybe you dabble in necromancy? But I'd bet 100 bucks that, short of their dead family and friends coming back to life, victims would settle for some fucking justice and accountability for folks at fault, and THAT can maybe be uncovered by...checks notes...people asking fucking questions and writing articles about it.
  3. When did you start referring to yourself as "the Media?" You can't give yourself nicknames, dude, it's gauche.
  4. The motherfucker doesn't have 400 billion dollars. His net worth is 3-400 billion dollars. There's a world of difference, and you know how that works. But to answer you're question I'd hire 20 fucking professional assassin type guys to physically neuter someone after I'd cut a deal and moved to a non-extradition country, had plastic surgery, and disappeared.
  5. Like the cut of his jib, eh? Guy's a legal correspondent for InfoWars, so...
  6. I dunno, doesn't seem to be changing Abbott's tactics so far. Imagine when being question who is blame calling those people (the parents of dead children) losers... https://www.rawstory.com/greg-abbott-2672976224/ Man I bet those parents feel really silly now. Clearly they're not Championship Parents.
  7. I'm not sure what's worse, citing Jordan Peterson, or rushing in to stan for Jordan Peterson and correcting someone who had incorrectly citied him. "No no guys, THIS is what Jerry Sundusky had to say about that...you got it all wrong."
  8. The discussion is intensifying...nothing will happen.
  9. The US Government has given a South African billions of dollars to such a thing.
  10. Come on man. They'll run over trans folk too.
  11. It's only oppressive if anyone signs with Florida State, and they won't.
  12. Yeah. And how's their bust rate, and who have they lost to the portal? I don't know, but I'd have a hard time ANYONE has done better at retention/development than Texas has at this point.
  13. You did a lot of lobbying for this kind of post being separated from the rain threads, and well, this is the thread for discussing the disaster, who to blame, etc, and comment on it. So as tiresome and hyperbolic as the guy is about this shit, he's posting in the right place. It's tiresome, because on some level, he's right and we know it and don't like hearing it spelled out over and over and over again.
  14. The same thing that always happens to him...swing and a miss.
  15. To be fair, they don't LIVE there as much as they're CONFINED there... I hope these heroes aren't detained by ICE.
  16. The Lotts are as bad, or even fucking worse, to be honest, than the Brocks. They've benefited from being Texas alums, and the program is currently maximizing all talent and developing it for the NFL at an unprecedented level since I've been following Texas football. At least when the Brocks laughed at Texas, Texas fucking sucked and weren't developing fucking shit at his position group. Of course, no one else developed the Brocks either, but the point here is that Lott can get all the way fucked, and so can his kid. But pretty sure if the dad had pushed him to go to Texas, he would have...
  17. Where it's really falling apart for you is that you're trying to ascribe rationality to something that is entirely based on faith. Those two things, by their own definitions, are diametrically opposed. Where it falls apart for me was the concept that people could live a good life and still go to hell because they didn't believe the right way, or at all. Or that an all knowing God wouldn't forgive those people simply because they were born in the wrong part of the world and weren't exposed to the "right" religion, yet pretty much all the world's religions all say some version of "If you're not worshipping OUR way, you're going to hell." Maybe not Judaism, I'm not at all versed. But y'all get the point. The next step for me was, "If that truly IS the mandate of an all knowing God, then what kind of God is he truly?" I find it unlikely a divine omnipotence would behave accordingly, and if so he can fuck off. Therefore I find it much more likely no one here has it even close to right, and it's much more statistically likely this is a bunch of made up nonsense no different than the Greek Gods or worshipping the sun and stars. Or the message was corrupted by the prophets spreading the word and we're doing little right, or there simply isn't any God. Humans, historically, have to create something to explain what they don't understand or can't/don't want to comprehend. Which is why I vacillate between agnostic and atheistic most days. Which becomes easier and easier as I continue to witness the cruelty of pretty much every church out there, these days.
  18. Can you make a case that they not give any money to the fucking Red Cross?
  19. So up by 1/3. Nice.
  20. Thanks. I have my receipt and trust I filled things out properly, that being said, that's a janky looking website and I'd love a list we can compare against to make sure nothing was lost in between. Yes, I know you're not Bob Lives, just talking out loud.
  21. Sorry Nicole. She lived in our neighborhood and there's a chance my wife knows your cousin from her school.
  22. Why are y'all talking about his dick?
  23. Yeah, none of that sounds helpful at all. Definitely more of a net negative.
  24. Might be some advice on helping out you were looking for in the other thread, Squish:
