    Funny how people that see signs from god all over the place don’t see a rained out Trump event as one. 

    I was hoping for a lightning bolt to wipe out the entire crowd. They were all there, in one place, just waiting to be spoken to by god himself.

    Fucker.

    I’m not as pessimistic as y'all but either way him having to sit there while 2 of his mistresses, Cohen and Hope Hicks talk shit about him will be glorious. 

    I pray to God that Stormy, Hope and the other one testify that he has a 1.5" dick.

    My thread so Im officially locking all comments on Fatty and getting back to the topic at hand.

    Joe Biden kicking ass and causing union resurgence.

    LOL NOT EVEN CLOSE. 72%-28%

    Workers voted overwhelmingly Friday to unionize at Volkswagen’s Tennessee plant, handing a major victory to the United Auto Workers and a resurgent U.S. labor movement. The tally was 2,628 to 985 for the UAW, Volkswagen said in a statement. The election was the third attempt by workers to organize at the Chattanooga factory, where past votes have narrowly failed. It also gives the UAW, which won record wage increases at GM, Ford and Stellantis last year, its first stronghold in the largely non-union South.

    Volkswagen becomes the first new automaker in the U.S. to be unionized in nearly half a century.

    Friday's vote is part of an effort by the UAW to organize 13 automakers, and "could be the start of a revolution in the U.S. auto industry," per CNN.

    Another vote at a Mercedes plant in Alabama will close May 17 — and organizing efforts are ongoing at a number of foreign automakers, as well as the plants of U.S. vehicle makers Tesla, Rivian and Lucid.

    My own thoughts: Amazing to see such a seismic shift with the common man's decision after previously failing twice, with the last vote in 2019 before widespread COVID shutdowns and "essential workers" got shaft. Would love to see if blue collar workers in other industries have the same shifting thoughts but can't think of a good ongoing comparison. This happening in the south doesn't leave much populated areas with experience left to consider moving to in United States to skirt unions. It'd have to be Mexico if you want some fingerprint in North America. Every single Volkswagen facility was union with the exception of this, so I don't believe they/ll pack up and go anywhere. Glad to see the waig is only a month to see what, if any, immediate shockwaves carry over to the Alabama vote.

    My Mercedes was built in Alabama.  I hope they go union.  Just wanted to humble brag a little bit and express support for the unions.

    If you really want to scare the shit out of fattie and the other right wing losers, figure out a way to organize white collar labor.  That would be cool as shit; I would sign up today.

  5. The company I used to work for 10 years ago got bought out by a big boy.  Some of the guys I "grew up with" in that company got some good money in the buyout deal.

    @fattyflattie who should I be angry with because of this?  To be honest, I give zero shits but it seems like in your world if some one gets something good that means we lost and we should be pissed fucking off.

    I want to be pissed fucking off so I can be cool as you.  I just need to know who should be targeted, your expertise is requested.

    Well, they made the last seed in the final, started in lane 8, and finished 4th. My daughter ran lead-off and handed off the baton in 2nd-ish place. They won’t advance to state, but that was a great year for the team with 2 frosh, 1 soph, and 1 jr (my daughter). The team will all be back next year for another go!

    Sounds like your kid goes to Leander Rouse?  Not a bad showing.

  7. Our discus dude got the "at large" spot for state, so good for him.  He would have won Regions III and IV and come in 2nd in Region I.

    Despite getting blown out and finishing 3rd yesterday, he's beaten the guy that won our region every other meet they went head-to-head.  The second place finisher and he have been back and forth all season.  He's probably got as good a chance as anyone to win state.

    And if you want evidence of gamesmanship negatively affecting outcomes, the better examples are prosecutorial and police misconduct. 

    I totally agree, but an image of some poor brown dude that got railroaded into a wrongful conviction wouldn't draw recognition like the ones I posted.  I just found it amusing that you would ask such an obvious question especially considering your response shows you knew the answer already.

    My opinion remains unchanged.

    Is there an actual purpose other than increasing personal wealth?

    Short covering can provide needed liquidity when the price does crater.  If everyone was long and the price craters, you don't have a lot of buyers at that point and the price drop accelerates.  Short sellers provide the buying liquidity when they cover their short position.

    Instead of working their usual 110%, they'll ramp up to 120% to make up for the 10% headcount loss.  Problem.  Solved.

    Even at 120%, 90% of the original workforce doesn't keep up with the original workforce at 110% hardcore levels.  The über hardcore 90% fall 2% short.

    So I can't tell if this was a response to my car nerd rambling or and extremely apt and astute catch of my typo. It was a 3.8 liter turbo.. not 3.6. Because I'm nerding out again why not add fuel to the fire.

    Let’s think positive as I plan on going.

    I'm gonna be there.  The TX State finals is an incredible event.  I enjoyed it way more than the NCAA Outdoor Championships last year.

  13. Our school has a pretty darn good discus thrower that won the area meet last week at 172 ft beating the second place dude by four feet.  The guy that threw 168 ft last week to finish second... yeah, all he did today was chunk it 192 ft to win the regional.  I'm pretty sure he got on the juice this week.

    If it forces the Republicans to spend more to secure Texas, thus leaving other parts of the country with less money, it do make a shit.
