  1. Thoughts and prayers
  2. And this is Kirk and MAGA’s and Trump’s total misstep with their all out power grab in addition to their complete dehumanization of their opposition. When the opposition feels totally powerless and hopeless and their leadership is ineffectual, they revert to violence. When Trump can crime with no consequence, masked men round up people and send them to Sudan, and political aligned folks are pardoned, the fatalism and cynicism it takes to murder political opposition can be achieved pretty easily
  3. My thoughts too. Im not trying to be a dick but ‘assassinated’ is for main characters. He was a bit player, support staff, C level political actor. It was a ‘politically motivated killing’ at most. The public is conflating the distance, roof top, rifle and MEANS of the killing blur what makes an assassination and assassination. You have to have stature and influence. He had a podcast.
  4. Don’t get me started about my in-laws, their $, my wife, and the whole thing. But I agree. One of the reasons my wife is dogshit with her $, saving, and keeping a personal budget (at work? She’s run a successful business so WTF?) is that she never did talk about money growing up. But also my in-laws have always used their means as a way to control their kids and family. Not talking about $ was more about control than committing some faux pas / avoiding being gouache. /Rant
  5. Wife…. People who don’t talk about $ are rich or grew up rich.
  6. I can assure you that it wasn’t endearing and no lessons were learned.
  7. Bro. ‘Houston’ is anything east of Sealy, North of Angleton, west of Winnie, and south of Willis. Cleveland’s fate was sealed when i69 was declared

  9. But how does he solve Middle East peace?!?!?!!???!??? Stop dodging the real issues that affect real New Yorkers!!!!!
  10. Daughter: Are grandma and grandpa rich? Wife: We don’t talk about those things. Me: [To daughter] It can be impolite to talk about that stuff but why don’t ask? Wife: [glare] Daughter: They have 2 houses. And one has an elevator. The other has a pool on the inside. I think that means you’re rich. Me: that’s pretty solid logic sweetie. But it’s probably best you don’t worry about money. You’re well taken care of. Wire: [still glaring] Daughter: But we’re not rich. Me: Not when I have to pay for all your activities and stuff. Daughter: oh Dad!!! [Daughter leaves] Wife: You always do this. The conversation should have ended at ‘We don’t talk about things like this’. Me: She was curious and she wasn’t wrong. Wife: she shouldn’t use that word. Me: what word? Wife:!Rich. It has such a bad connotation now and with all this backlash you know. Me: oh yeah? Wife: Yeah it’s a bad word now. Just say wealth or they have money. Rich just isn’t safe anymore. Me: What kind of world is it when rich … I mean people of means don’t even feel safe in their paid off BMW’s and multiple houses? Wife; [Glares] Me: Don’t worry babe. It’s nothing you need to worry about. Wife: Yeah because we don’t have any money. Me: I’m doing my part to keep my family safe.
  11. String? As in in Stringer Bell? Idris Alba in a biopic about Charlie Strong wasn’t on my bingo card for 2025!….. But pretty solid choice if you ask me.

    Defeated?
  13. I quote this movie to this day. I know it has lots of accolades, but somehow I feel like it’s not given its due. One of my favorite comedies to this day. Very much ahead of its time and would be subversive again somehow with all this trans / drag backlash.
  14. Cross post to ‘You got knocked the F’ out!’
  15. I’m sure he’s shaking in his lifts just thinking about the political implications of the … checks notes…. A democratic members submitted bill that won’t ever see the light of day or get any press coverage. The democrats: just as unserious as republicans.
  16. Realignment is definitely not going away…
  17. NM. Chewy dong talk already covered.
