    I didn’t. That’s one of the shocking realities of brand loyalty. Loyalty is very durable and brand loyal people are, by and large, willing to put up with injury.  Isn’t that weird? And yet it plays out that way over and over, at individual and population level scales.

    You can hurt them, over and over, and then the sun shines, and people forget. 

    You’re talking about ford owners aren’t you

    It really doesn't matter what "they" got.  They could release a video of Trump fucking an entire girl scout troop, because for anyone still supporting him, that's not going to change their minds.

    They could post a video of him curing cancer and some of y'all would rather die than take it.

    The way he has gutted the NIH that’s off the table. So lucky us?

    Did it?

    I have an aunt whose wife is more anti-Trump than the entire CR combined and she actually admitted that she would rather die than accept help of it came from him.

    and unless she’s a billionaire she’s never going to face that dilemma

    What I don't get is why she's bothering. I get the grift, but Kirk was already wealthy. Now she's wealthy. She could very easily just sit in the background, claim to be the grieving mom, and have all the money in the world, and probably more coming as she just rents out the TPUSA infrastructure. Why do all this shit? It makes no fucking sense to me. It's like an NFL footballer's wife stepping in after her RB husband dies and going "Imma take up his mantle. Fuck the eagles this weekend, I'm running for 150."

    MAGA grifters make a lot of money, but the spend a lot of money too

    God’s chosen people sure have had a rough few millennia. 

    Jews God and History by Max Dimont is a phenomenal study on the how/why the  Jewish identity has remained largely intact across millennia despite attempts at assimilation, subjugation, and eradication, by dominant cultures / states. Read in the context of Guns Germs and Steel by Jared Diamond their  survival as a distinct culture is even more remarkable

    pretty fucked up that the referee with the U comes from behind the play and argues with the actual official standing on the pylon with the best view that signaled TD

    Well the guy with the “best view” was blind or cheating. They got the call right

    . . . and yet there's a Maudie's a quarter mile away.  Still not the best choice in the neighborhood, not by a long shot, but . . . Chuy's?

    We used to white collar the happy hour at that Chuy's because the work ladies and their friends all wanted to go there.  Alrighty, we'll follow.

    Many parts of Dallas go from well to do to sketch pretty quick, although gentrification is killing those areas fast. There is still one little area of sketchiness not far away from me hanging on probably due to some good sized older apartment complexes.
     

    The sketchy little liquor store I prefer over the big new chain store is right by where I gas up, and last night I noticed a taco trailer in the lot. Just said “tacos”. I can’t wait to try it.

    A lot of people just want stimmies. And they'll happily accept them even if they are now getting screwed harder than they were before

    This is why I said last year Biden should have announced in the summer and then sent out in September 2k per family. We would not be dealing with these assholes
