  1. I don't have an issue with this.  He's basically one anyhow, and the (D) label next to his name is going to be a hindrance in 2024.  He'd probably have a better shot winning as an independent that caucuses with the Dems. 

    He’s going to declare himself an Independent and run for president on the stupid “No Labels” platform.

  2. Nah

    Cheney and Kizinger helped too - especially Cheney.

    Just because they talk a big game and hate Trump doesn’t negate the fact that they voted like he wanted 97% of the time and still hold shitty views on everything BUT Trump and democracy.

    I'm starting to wonder if Republicans are behind brining Fentanyl and Immigrants into the United States. 

    I mean, indirectly, they are.

    Republicans loved that sweet sweet Purdue/OxyContin cash, Republicans fight against treatment over imprisonment for drug addicts, Red States have the highest rates of opioid abuse etc. All leading to the escalation of the opioid crisis which is why fentanyl even became a thing.

    Republicans could curtail a huge number of illegal crossings if they would punish businesses who exploit immigrant labor but they refuse to do it because, again, sweet sweet cash.

  4. Oh she definitely got Raglan’s anger and attitude.

    The whole story started with Raylan taking her to a camp for kids with issues because she punched another girl and broke her nose.

    And she mentioned it again in the latest episode.

    “Don’t go around backstabbing me.”

    “Or you’ll do what?”

    “Why do you think I punched that bitch in the nose?”

    That’s a Raylan/Helen/Arlo move for sure.

  5. Brief tangent:  look at this FOX News chyron.  "Kamala".  Never before do I recall any media outlets referring to VPOTUS by their first name.  I'm not sure if it's because she's not white or if it's because she's not male -- probably both.  It's intentionally diminishing.

    It’s about race and othering because her name “sounds weird and foreign”.

    They used “Clinton” for Hillary Clinton when she was SoS and the Democratic nominee.

  6. As an alumni of an Old Row house at Bama and with a daughter in a sorority at AU, I probably have a little more insight.

    These consultants are worth it for out of state girls rushing at big Greek schools (Alabama, UGA, Auburn, Texas, TCU, LSU, Purdue, Wisconsin etc).

    If your daughter is staying in state and rushing - don’t bother. The active members already know about your town, your school and their reputation.

    Legacies don’t mean shit any more.

    Last year my sorority had more legacies than they had spots. If they want you and you’re a legacy, that’s a bonus. But legacies get a courtesy invite to the second round and then most get cut - I’d say 50-60%.

    The first round cuts are made strictly on grades. My sorority cuts anyone with below a 3.5 automatically. And the more popular houses have to make deeper cuts. It’s all done by a computer algorithm.

    The biggest - and I mean BIGGEST - thing for girls going through rush is to clean up their social media and post pictures with variety and purpose and with a cohesive aesthetic- fun with friends (but no drinking and wild partying), family pictures, doing volunteer work, sports photos, pictures with their pets, doing stuff with their church etc.

    And do it starting in your sophomore and junior year in high school. And go all the way to the first ever post for review. The sororities start looking at upcoming in state girls at least a year before.

    And clean up comments - delete anything with cussing or any fights.

    There’s a lot more but most alumni who live in the state can consult with these girls and give the same advice as these professional consultants.

    If any of y’all ever have a daughter going to Bama or Auburn and are planning to rush, DM me and I’ll be happy to help.

    I’ll only charge $800 lol
