  1. Once there is a critical mass of politicians who are younger than baby boomers, yes. Until then, no fucking chance.
  2. There is only a very specific type of person who can wear white jeans. You either have to be in a band on stage, or treating the world as your gay stage. If you aren't doing one of those two things, that is a look that can't be pulled off.
  3. Yeah speaking of non-applicability. Singapore has about the same square mileage as Austin with about the same population as Houston. But as long as we are bringing in irrelevant comparisons into the conversation, Singapore also has legalized whores.
  4. Money can't buy you taste, exhibit #3,000,015
  5. Why am I not surprised you wouldn't have liked Stewart on the Daily Show.
  6. As a former sufferer of Hillary Derangement Syndrome myself, this is correct. A whole bunch of us let 30 years of propaganda, which really got started because she had the audacity to sit on a committee to try to reform healthcare, taint our impression of her. Thanks Rush/Fox/et al.
  7. God damn Jimmy that was funny (and accurate) And Bama, Harry Styles has nice grooves but the words are fucking nonsense most of the time.
  8. Yeah as a gay I spend a lot of time protecting straight men's fragile egos. I've always assumed that there are a whole lot more gay/bi people than ever come out of the closet. They are fragile because they've long harbored thoughts of wanting to give it a try, or they did give it a try as a teen and they liked it more than they want to admit. I can't come up with any other reason why "conservative" straight men must be treated with kid gloves. If you don't want to give in to your desires, that's on you, but just because you decided not to go down that path doesn't mean you need to force the rest of us to be miserable fucks too. I get the same feeling from people who get so offended over cuss words. I think they like cussing too much so they have decided to deprive themselves of it, and if they can deprive themselves then they think you should too. Fuck them.
  9. Wow, sounds like your school district athletics department was set up by a pedophile. Good lord.
  10. Holy shit. Ok what's worse optics: 1) Doubling down on lax laws after the death of multiple children and then expelling the black members that raised a stink about those lax laws (while keeping the white woman who joined them) 2) joining a chant with protesters about those lax laws while being black. Taco Bell guy, want to give us an update on your view of optics now that this has played out? Also, what's your stance on 1) Pissing in the seat of a fellow member, 2) child molesters? According to information learned today, it sounds like neither of those are as big a deal as chanting with protesters while being black.
  11. Which optics are worse? Doubling down on terrible policies after those policies led to the death of multiple children? Or chanting with protesters?
  12. Yeah for a lot of kids, getting that physical is the first time they are showing their dick to someone on purpose. It's not a pleasant experience. The asshole side of me agrees with Brisket, that we should absolutely be pushing to reconfirm the gender of every kid for every game just to make this as difficult as possible for these assholes to get away with this. But the part of me that remembers having to show my dick to my doctor in 7th grade is like "Yeah, that's a terrible idea." Luckily in our school we only had to line up in the gym for lice checks and scoliosis checks. We went to the doctor to get the hernia check, so we had that going for us, which was nice.
  13. Here's a quarter, call someone who cares.
  14. Kinda feels like she knows what she's speaking about because from looking at her, it looks like her life is a total living hell.
  15. I think some people are misunderstanding what the word slay means when a drag queen is using it. \ None of those are referring to actually killing anyone. Maybe this has all just been a slang misunderstanding after all?
  16. And Facebook is the preferred search engine for the olds. I see the potential for exploitation, in fact I've been watching it going on for a good long while right here with US based companies as well, and I think Facebook is playing a major role (along with Fox) in why so many of us have lost our parents to the cult of the GOP. I don't really see the thing you are concerned about being different because I've already watched Facebook sell to whoever wanted to buy it, including foreign governments. So why should I care if I'm lining the pockets of some Singaporean CEO vs Zuckerberg if the end result is that governments against the US are still going to wind up with the same data? What I'm getting at is that if we're going to be banning social media from China, then we should be banning Facebook from selling data to non-US citizens, and banning US citizens from sending that information outside the borders of the US. If we're not ALSO doing that, then China will just buy the data from Facebook and carry on with their plans unabated. If the data is what's important, then we should be protecting the data, no matter how it is collected. It's as simple as that. Until such time as we decide to protect the data no matter where it's being collected, I don't really understand the picking of winners and losers among the data collectors. That really shouldn't be the business of our government.
  17. RIP Phil Hartman
  18. I'm sure they are getting a lot of good intel about me, now that they know that I tend to like all things about people getting startled, or dogs doing cool/funny stuff, or Karens getting owned. I don't have any more heartburn over the Chinese government having this information than Zuckerberg or Musk.
  19. So I've figured it out, YGIFS is Roger Stone but for the other side.
  20. When y'all first started talking about the clown shoe on the right, I went all the way to the right. How the fuck is that lion walking with the monstrosity of it's one right paw?
  21. People would’ve confused them with people that believed COVID was real, though. How could they have ever recovered from that?
  22. I was wondering what happened to our old AD.
  23. Satchel's post above comports with my experience growing up in the SBC. I never actually got sexually assaulted, but I'm 99% sure that my youth pastor was working on me for awhile while I was in high school "to save my soul." He eventually figured out I wasn't going to play with his balls and stopped asking me to go out for a ride with him.
