  1. Between that and *there, just a rock solid post all around by me
  2. So Erika Kirk had a 5-hour sit down with Candace Parker pleading with her to stop disparaging her and her husband's name in wild conspiracy theories (aka I desperately need some of your audience to stay relevant), and Owens said, "nah bitch." And Tucker Carlson's out their passing out gasoline. Do I have that about right? What a fine group of individuals.
  3. So...are Sharpies more pleasurable up your butt? Asking for me. I'm asking for me.
  4. Do you even Vince Gilligan, bro?
  5. Ok, who predicted that everything will be redacted, but they'll throw a Clinton to the wolves to try to distract? Everyone? Literally everyone? Oh.
  6. Right. I'll take more of those histrionics and way less young moms and dads thoroughly convinced that teachers are trying to turn their kids trans, and the state can perform operations on them without parental consent.
  7. Yep. People who truly take advantage of WFH to do half an hour of productive work are the same ones who used to take 2-hour lunches and 90 minute shits. I suppose the argument is that it's better to have them visible to their supervisors but being in the office isn't going to turn them into leaders and go-getters.
  8. No, no, of course not. But, maybe...
  9. You do realize that most of us use this forum as an outlet to say the shit that we can't in real life--because of being members of polite society, family obligations, not being anti-social psychopaths, etc.--right? Only, like, 30% of us are going to take a shit in a box and send it to our conspiracy-riddled uncle. 40% tops. But, sure, man, keep pretending that there's a liberal equivalent to dude bros proudly displaying WWG1WGA, 3%, and other militia and white nationalist movement paraphernalia and bumper stickers. Or a parallel to the giant ass Fuck Biden flags at every camping trip and lake I've been on for 5 years. Or year-round roadside MAGA apparel tents. They absolutely cannot help themselves. All of us work or associate with people just itching to squeeze transsexuals and DEI into completely unrelated conversations. Maybe I am sheltered from left wing extremism in [checks notes] Southern California, but I don't recall the last time a universal healthcare (as if that's even comparable) discussion came out of nowhere. Dumber people and those drawn to conspiracies having poor impulse control and a lack of social etiquette isn't exactly breaking news.
  10. Don't be obtuse. Of course they exist. But you know you're full of shit trying to pretend like the numbers are remotely comparable. Go to any airport in America and count how many people feel the need to wear apparel that makes a political statement. Tell me what you see. How many cars feel the need to tell you their thoughts on Brandon or the liberal media. Left wing signaling is much less widespread and usually non-offensive and generic as fuck. Your favorite 'In this House...' signs, for example. But, if anyone is going to completely ignore and blow by any and all social cues to deliver a political rant, Vegas wouldn't even let you place a bet on who it would be because the odds are so lopsided.
  11. No one wants to relitigate this again (especially on a DT thread that's already become a CR trainwreck), but the mechanisms to force the sitting President of the United States--who absolutely wants to run for reelection--to step aside are messy at best, 25th Amendment party destroying at worst. Do I--and most everyone else--wish that they found a way? Obviously. Should they have found a way? Clearly. But I'd wager that "crossing your fingers and hoping he makes it to the finish line" would probably be the decided strategy 9 times out of 10, regardless of who's in office, in such a position if the alternative is a very public and untimely power struggle. To your point, that points to incompetence--or, at least the path of least resistance from the number crunchers--over some willful, malicious conspiracy. I understand voters feeling aggrieved and robbed of choice. I also bet they'd sure we shit like a do-over since we ended up with the least sound mind in office imaginable. Mistakes were made all around.
  12. Cool. None of that, in any way, shape, or form, resembles "fascism". None of us--or anyone outside his family, probably--had any say over Joe Biden's decision making process. He chose poorly. Democrats made what they felt was the best decision in a sea of pretty imperfect options given their time constraints. Voters were free to express their disapproval at the nomination per the democratic process. Many apparently did, standing by their principles to honor the established norms by helping to elect known election norm follower Donald Trump. I hope they are thoroughly satisfied with how things turned out for them and the country.
  13. I have it on good authority that thorough, evidence-based investigation and fact-vetting no longer "fucks" in this country.
  14. Right. Because it's the left that's known for being completely unable to keep their hot takes to themselves in polite company.
