  1. Yeah, I know, I was a terrible dad, but a bouncer + Finding Nemo streaming on the Roku or Ipad got me through the terrible 2s relatively unscathed.
  2. If the kiddo is like every other 2 yo I know, just buy his 5 fav movies on Bluray (or 4k if he's a connossieur) with digital, and you'll be able to download all of them on his iPad. Voila - no Disney+ required anymore.
  3. I don't even watch Kimmel, but I cancelled my ESPN / Disney+/ Hulu bundle. They can get fucked.
  4. In the early days following the shooting, there had been similar statements about a "manifesto" that had somehow been destroyed. So am I to understand the "manifesto" was actually a 15-word note that had been hidden under a keyboard? Just fucking ridiculous.
  5. The Dems shouldn't be commenting on the theories, but damn sure should be engaging a bot army to amplify the fuck out of this, just like the right would be doing. The right LOVES a conspiracy theory, so it's just a matter of making certain that all of them see it (especially if it would cause some of them to start questioning their blind allegiance to both Trump and Israel).
  6. Kash Patel / Stephen Miller / Pam Bondi in response to your stating facts:
  7. Feels like someone should be looking into Brian Kilmeade's Signal / Discord / etc. right about now, right?
  8. I checked out his feed and was like - "are you sure?" Guess it goes to show that there are probably a bunch of folks that you walk by and have no idea that they're trans. And yet probably 30%+ of people are just fucking terrified of these folks. It makes no sense, but I guess the GQP has to demonize someone to keep the evangelicals in line. Fucking ghouls, the lot of them. BTW - in fact-checking, I ran across this - https://religionnews.com/2025/04/04/trans-singer-sasha-allen-releases-single-about-forgiveness-catholic-acceptance/, which has another of his songs ("When I Forgive You"). Incredible stuff in today's environment.
  9. As long as you base your racist, misogynistic screeds on "facts" (most likely funded by Heritage / Cato / AEI / etc), you can say whatever you want and MAGA will have your back, especially when it supports their long-held views. I think that's why Charlie Kirk was so popular - he gave them permission to hold those views and not in the "because fuck you, that's why" Trump style. With Charlie, it was always more of a "you can't entirely prove my made-up facts wrong, so you can't really say I'm racist / misogynistic / etc."
  10. Here you go: This is how Charlie Kirk should be remembered. And to your question, of course he wasn't going to say a word about any old white guys asleep at the wheel.
  11. Careful - you don't want to engage in stochastic terrorism against the wannabe Nazis - errr, umm ... I meant, principled Christian conservatives.
  12. Yeah, kinda like the Mueller report, you're not going to hear what they're ACTUALLY saying until the GQP gets to tell everyone what they said enough that nobody will bother to check what they actually said. Any evidence floating around out there is just mostly conspiracy-theory nonsense (think Loomer / Andy Ngo / etc) and sketchy stuff like this from the Sun (click the link to hear this neighbor kid recounting how he saw Tyler and the roommate kissing): https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/36693693/charlie-kirk-shooter-tyler-robinson-transgender-partner/ Not sure about you, but I've seen enough out of this administration that I'm gonna go ahead and wait a beat to get some independently vetted evidence (with our current press - yeah, right!!) before I buy any of this shit.
  13. Yeah, they fucked up GOOD this time. ICE has somehow avoided any real consequences for their human rights violations, but when a few hundred South Koreans tell the same story about the shit that goes down in these facilities, I think this may become a pretty huge deal. Fucking idiots.
  14. Absolutely. It started out with Fox News adjacent sourcing + the dark corners of X (Loomer and other nutjobs), but now they seem to be trying to sane-wash it through more legitimate seeming sources. Examples: https://www.axios.com/2025/09/13/kirk-suspect-transgender-roommate https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/trans-roommate-tyler-james-robinson-213501931.html (but note that this is the Dallas Express) The Axios piece leaked out initially as having confirmation from 6 sources that the roommate was a "trans partner." By the time it was actually released, it was "six sources familiar with the investigation" - most likely Kash and his chosen lackeys. I'm not sure it can be totally dismissed, but it's really suspicious. There is the question of how they expect this to hold together under scrutiny - if they even really care (i.e, the whole "lie travels halfway around the world" thing comes to mind) - but it wouldn't surprise me if they're telling the roommate "you better not say a damn thing or we'll charge you as an accessory" or some such bullshit.
  15. And Gateway Pundit piling on for the bingo: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/09/breaking-kirk-assassin-tyler-robinsons-roommate-possible-transgender/ Of course, they've cherry-picked any pics that make the kid look furry / trans-adjacent (weird hoodie? a pastel shirt? good enough!). Kid is in for a rough time.
  16. Fox News and NY Post are basically the same person. I'm betting they spoke to the same source - probably Kash, Bongino or one of their lackeys. This is how the shit goes in the right wing echo chamber - watch the algorithm take it to the top of everyone's feed in about an hour.
  17. Not just roommate - "partner / boyfriend." The right wing echo chamber is about to work their asses off to amplify this into a thing.
  18. Here's the latest recasting of the "friend" commentary: Now the Guardian reporter, Anna Betts, is calling him an "associate who played video games with the suspected gunman." And apparently, Tyler "expressed sentiments to him that were critical of Donald Trump," which I guess led to the "associate's" statements that he was "pretty left on everything" and was "the only member of the family that was, like, really leftist." In Dixie Utah, I could see anyone critical of Trump being viewed as leftist, even if the concern came from the "farther right" (e.g., was he bitching about Trump's support of Israel or something like that?). What a fucking failure of reporting, and what utter bullshit from this "associate." The Guardian, for its part, is doing a truly shitty job of owning this. They should have been prominently and clearly retracting the "really leftist" bullshit that they unleashed, but it's all embedded "oops, that might not have been 100% accurate" shit in the story.
  19. And let's check the tapes on that: #4 on the College Transitions list of most conservative public schools ahead of A&M (#5) (https://www.collegetransitions.com/blog/most-conservative-colleges/) #8 on College Rover list of most conservative colleges (again ahead of A&M, but behind BYU - supporting claims of being the "liberal" school in Utah) (https://collegerover.com/campus-library/news/128/most-conservative-colleges-in-us) #11 on Prep Scholar list of most conservative colleges (again ahead of A&M) (https://blog.prepscholar.com/most-conservative-colleges) Not sure what criterion all of this is based on, but scary that even kids at a top 11 conservative school aren't safe from "lIBRul IndOCtRiNatIoN!11!" (in 1 semester no less). Won't someone think of the children? Apparently we need to be expanding capacity at the last bastions of conservatism, Bob Jones U, Liberty and BYU immediately.
