    you have just described every person i have ever know who comes from a privileged background.

    It really is amazing how lacking in self awareness people who come from generational wealth are. I consider myself a lucky SOB to have been born into a situation where I never had to worry about money growing up and, for that reason, I want others to be able raise their families in the same way.

    PSA - if you can't find Magic Mushrooms I highly recommend picking up some melted Shar Pei as a stopgap alternative...

    I have a Shar Pei mix (my avatar) and I love that dude so much despite his terrible snoring, allergies, skin problems… he just wants to be in someone’s lap and near humans at all times.

    Most of them these days fall under the religious loony umbrella but yes excellent point 

    I thought the same thing, but it galls me to no end how un-Christian mainstream Christianity has become.

    If they are truly all corrupt, don’t you want the group that will get you the most of what you want or at least the least of what you don’t want?

     

    Unless you are 100Maire or greater, are a religious loony, or want a child bride, there is no reason I can think of at this point to pick a republican over a democrat 

    Don’t forget hating immigrants and non-whites.

    I know I'm carpet bombing this thread right now, but thanks. I'm going to grieve for a day or two but it's time to move on. I will find other straight guys that are cool as shit that like to do cool shit and aren't lost. at our age, life long friends are a misnomer. friends come and go now. that's just reality. I have 4-5 life long friends that have stuck with me and that's just it, and I'll protect those to the death, but this guy is a 7-8 year friend and he's gone.

    No apology necessary for all the posts. I, for one, find it interesting and sad at the same time to see real life stories play out in realtime as a reminder that this shit is real and it’s dangerous. I hear you on life long friends. I have five friends (was 6, but we tragically lost one to suicide) that I will protect to the end and have known each other for 30+ years. Others come and go, but those relationships persevere.

    I'm not, we had a conversation that was not expected last night and the friendship ended over text this morning. I'm just sharing with y'all now.

    walking dead, he's a zombie now, there is no cure. he's gone.

    That sucks. I feel for you. Losing a close friendship is never easy, but sometimes there are reasons it’s untenable and this seems like one of those times.

    Kind of crazy how an ex-president can be so objectively wrong about everything he talks about.

    "I was told I could have three judges! And I could pick them! And I was PROMISED the trial could take place by the pool at Mar-a-lago!"

    Even crazier that he can blast this BS out to his disciples and they lap it up as gospel.

    this was my fav -

    him: got it, groomers aren't a big deal.

    me before: for every one drag queen or trans person that has abused a child or attempted to groom a child there are thousands of family members, pastors, scout leaders and dare I say little league coaches that have done the same.

    wait, fav was this -

    him: oh, y'all are on the same team?

    me before: no, trans people are our people.

    him before that: you know the L's, G's and B's don't like the T's.

    * you read that right, i'm not out to him

    This is what is most infuriating to me in this situation. He sees you as a friend that is uber successful, has a great family, great career, happy marriage, etc. He then can’t make the connection that you’re essentially living the life that life that everyone in the world aspires to, but people such as yourself are under attack by one party to vilify a group of our community as groomers, molesters, etc., when clear data shows that just not to be the case.
     

    People like him just read conspiracy shit while “doing their research” and take it as gospel while not making the connection that someone in their close circle is someone under attack. It’s so intellectually weak to not be able to make that connection and question the BS that they are consuming.

    If you're leasing your car, you probably have bigger financial black flags than some corporate rebate / discount.

    If my employer offered me a car lease at 50% off, I would jump at that in a heartbeat. I would also make sure the discount was for the life of the lease no matter my employment status or that I could turn the vehicle in without penalty when my employment ended.

    Decent rundown of who might testify to what from Politico: https://www.politico.com/news/2024/04/14/trump-hush-money-trial-witnesses-00151816

     

    Two things from that article:

    1. The CEO of the National Enquirer is Mr. Pecker. Can’t make that up.

    2. Said CEO of the National Enquirer is called out in the article for having far fewer credibility issues than Michael Cohen. Imagine having so little credibility that the CEO of a supermarket tabloid is a more credible witness than you are.

    None whatsoever! 

    However, I do recall Michael Wilbon going on a very proud and totally earnest, "I drive a Dodge Stratus!"-esque rant about his Catera on PTI 20ish years ago, and the absurdity of it all has stuck with me more than anything else about that useless car. 

    The fact that the first thing I think of when I see the word Catera is the Caddy that zigs means GM did a good job of burning that into my much younger and impressionable brain.

    I have no idea who Dua Lipa is, and I wish her all the best.  But this is gonna be a tough act to follow, literally.   

    Google is your friend here. She’s insanely attractive.
