  1. First, they came for John Bolton and I said nothing because fuck that guy and may the leopards feast on his ugly face and grotesque mustache. Then it occurred to me that these assholes aren't going to stop with John Bolton.
  2. He said the same about the El Paso shooting.
  3. Even though it's blatantly unconstitutional, I'll say it's much more likely he'll be on the ballot in '28 than in the ballet.
  4. I have several back home type facebook friends that frequently post memes about AOC that are an unflattering picture of her with a caption that'll always be something she never ever said. One of those captions recently was "If we ban Tik Tok, the clocks won't work." Some of those dipshits actually seemed to think it was a real quote. They frame the narrative of AOC as her being a bimbo, too far left, out of touch with regular people. Then people just go along with it and don't counterpunch. The counterattack is "what did she ever actually say that you think is stupid or that you even disagree with?" Nah, let's just let the Maga dispshits frame all the issues and retreat. Just resign ourselves to we gotta nominate old straight white men to have a chance. It's either fascist lunacy or Chuck Schumer and his reading glasses.
  5. To me, this is the blueprint for responding to all the accusations about woke, pronouns, latinx, litterboxes, or whatever. Dismiss the attack and counterpunch. "What the hell are talking about?" "Let me ask you a question..." followed by one of the painfully obvious counterattacks that's just sitting there wide open. I'm not saying we abandon anyone or cooperate in any way with their fucked up agenda but always call them out for their stupid deflections and don't let them always be the ones to raise or frame the issues.
  6. It was back in '95 or '96, I worked at the Black Eyed Pea on South Lamar when it was rebranded as Black Eyed Pea Market Grill. Some changes I remember were we started having to wear white long sleeve dress shirts and black pants rather than the polos and khakis, smaller portions, smaller glasses for iced tea and water, and the introduction of this chicken pasta marinara dish that was pretty horrible. It became Pluckers not long after that.
  7. Except don't they put cinnamon in it?
  8. Maybe kinda racist but never trust a person with no lips. There are countless examples of them being awful.
  9. What should be a way bigger part of this whole Epstein story is the scale of the trafficking ring and the extensive, sustained, and continuing coverup. I just scrolled my phone's newsfeed and nothing about Epstein for the top 50 stories. Just looked at CNN.com and not a damn thing about Epstein that I saw. The story has died for now even though Maxwell was just this Friday transferred to the country club detention facility. And, hahahaha, we all seem to be largely pinning our hopes on MAGA, QAnon dipshits staying pissed off about this. The free press is dead. Consolidation, right wing bullshit, control of media by the new mega billionaire class, the end of outlets like daily newspapers with nothing taking their place is what brought us here. The president's involvement in a child fucking sex trafficking ring used to would've been a story with some legs. It's estimated that there were as many as 1000 victims. Not a single living man has had any sort of criminal consequences. The one woman that was ever held to account now sits in the softest detention facility imaginable awaiting a likely pardon or commutation against the wishes of the victims. I know they've successfully flooded the zone with other outrages but I can't help but think about how different this would've been in the past. These are such bizarre times. Again, adjust your expectations downward, evermore past what you imagine to be the bottom of the abyss, you sweet summer children of the ledge.
  10. I used to feel this cartoon was perfect but lately it bothers me that the rich man's cookie pile isn't way bigger for the sake of accuracy. If hard hat man's one cookie represented a net worth of $500,000, rich man's cookie pile would be at most $15 million. If rich man has a net worth of one billion, that's 2000 cookies. If that were Elon, Bezos, or Zuckerberg the cookie pile would be need to be between 450,000 and 800,000 cookies. Anyway, here's a picture of those 3 at the inauguration with some other rich pricks. Between those 3 people, they have about 1.8 million cookies if hard hat man's cookie represents $500,000 net worth.
  11. This is unfortunately so true. NPR seems to have as much fear of being labeled biased as anyone in media. If Ana had ever listened to 5 minutes of NPR, he'd realize he's a minor league both-sideser compared to them. On the other hand, public broadcasting stands out as different and better than most because it's less concerned with profit and with doing the propaganda work of mega billionaire owners.
  12. You stupid motherfucker, you make a political statement every time you post on this website because your avatar is a dumbass political joke. You do it everywhere except the place that's designated for politics.
  13. A lot of grifting attention seeking scum end up pandering to the right wing of this country because that's where the rubes are. The examples are endless: Candace Owens, Russell Brand, RFK Jr, Tulsi Gabbard, Donald Trump.
  14. I'm going to play Nostradamus for a second and guess that Trump didn't pay Epstein what he owed him for trafficking all those underage girls his way.
  15. Here you go with acting like you're too stupid to understand the explanation of why we don't have White History Month. Also, answer @seven's question. Do you think there should be such a month?
  16. Because, you dumb-ass racist motherfucker, white people's contribution to this country's history has never been under-recognized. Because whiteness is an artificial construct that includes people of widely different backgrounds. If someone suggested Irish History Month, Italian History Month, Dutch History Month, that's very different than White History Month. You're making the same stupid fucking argument that many of us who grew up in racist places have been hearing our whole lives. Black American is a different sort of identity than White American because Black Americans were robbed of their cultural identities when they were brought here as slaves. It's why people whose ancestors were brought here in bondage don't identify as Mandinka or whatever.
  17. Catturd is Cheeseburger Josh from Whataburger, probably, so he's been in at least one fight.
  18. I forget that about a third of Surly is either from Southeast Texas or has for some reason spent a lot of time there. As a kid, I remember feeding the gators at Boondocks and that things started to feel even more sketchy when a group of raccoons moved in and started vying for scraps.
  19. When @Derka started this thread, I thought no way in hell this subject deserved its own thread or that it would have any legs at all. It's been a couple of months now and I don't think it's fallen off the front page. We're still almost a year away from the World Cup but that criminal moron Trump gets his little child raping hands all over everything.
  20. It was Jap Road and was renamed Boondocks Road after a restaurant that used to be out there. It's not very close to Vidor. More like between Port Arthur, Winnie, and Fannett.
  21. Like a lot of people, I really thought this guy was a parody account. It wouldn't surprise me at all to find out that he was but just kept on getting clicks to the point where he was making money from it and finally he ends up ambassador to Malaysia.
  22. "Hey, Jomboy. Love your videos. How about a lip reading of that Epstein and Trump video?" Seriously, a small group of people posting some variation of that comment whenever his videos first drop on YouTube would further stoke this fire.
