  1. If he pulls enough Q anon voters from Trump because they think he’s Q I’d be fine with that.
  2. That Kennedy Super Bowl commercial was trippy
  3. Sorry, I was confusing and imprecise. They get more tracking data if you have an account and they can see what you have viewed over time. If it is embedded they get less data and if you purge cookies or watch incognito or other techniques even less. The part about Truths being screenshots and not tracked is true and if we copy and paste screenshots from twitter instead of embedding tweets that would not be tracked here either.
  4. and Russia is the cheapest place to buy oil
  5. Yeah, I assume you mean our eyeballs (viewers) are the product and the advertisers are the customers that pay for more eyeballs. So give away the platform and sell the ads makes more sense. Charge a premium for fewer ads. (YouTube, Spotify, etc follow this model) But there are strange quirks about embedded tweets and youtube videos I have noted They never show ads (twatter or youtube). They need to drive you to their platform to serve the ads I have a strong suspicion that they are not able to collect the demographic data on the viewers without your account login info so the advertisers would probably pay a lower rate for non-targeted ads. Off topic, I think this is one of the funniest parts of Truth Social - the main content to draw viewers is Trump but all his crap is posted as screenshots (not even embeds that they could track) by Bots on other platforms where it gets a lot more eyes so there is no incentive to advertise on Truth if you can get a bigger audience on TwiXer. I guess the targeted prepper, red hat and lumpy pillow buyers might be an exception. At least youtube and elmo can track embeds
  6. That's my favorite Led Zeppelin song.
  7. ACB has been challenging the Trump arguments. On the disqualification argument about Congress “could” remove the disability with a 2/3 vote. If Congress wanted to remove the disability they could do it today. The fact that they have not removed the disability for Trump means that they don’t want to and that saying they “might” do it in the future is like a prison inmate saying let me out now because the governor “might” commute my sentence in the future.
  8. Alito carrying water
  9. Yep, but over at fox news they'll have some outrage story about Taylor Swift or andocrene harvesting instead of these rulings.
  10. They specifically call out the a former president can be prosecuted for any CRIMES committed while in office. Executive immunity would still apply to official duties because the official duties of the president are not criminal. That bit about following the advice of pillow salesmen and conspiracy theorists instead of say the advice of Whitehouse counsel is coming back to bit him.
  11. Yeah, He'll wait to submit his appeal to the USSC on the last day but my bet is they decline to hear it unless the money flows to hear it just to delay and then they deny the appeal anyway but the straightforward apprach would be to deny the appeal.
  12. I clicked on this thread for the first time today and even though I knew about the cancer diagnosis when I saw the title was "Long live the King" I thought the thread was going to be about Bob Wills
  13. My brothers and I had a few of those when we were kids, took them in our household items to Scotland and ran around the wooded/natural areas of the base with them shooting at stuff. One of my brothers got me in the forehead from a 100 feet away. Thinking back we got away with a lot of stuff.
  14. They just sent me this right after I posted above
  15. Bingo. That's exactly what I said when I saw them. It's getting painted a color close to the left one. I have not seen it but there was a 3x or 4x price difference between the two samples above (the correct color was more $) and they got another line that sprayed out the same as the left but closer to the lower price. This way I can spend more money on the clear coat. Today's update is that the door jams and joints are painted.
  16. PresidAnt Biden should give it away if you ignored the "Parody by Rub" byline and Can 29 for the date
  17. Most cars have rubber plugs under the floor plan that can be removed to let the water drain out but .22 means you don't have to crawl under the car.
  18. Or people without gainful employment. Notice they don't mention construction company owners, farmers with crops to pick or other food producers, roofers, landscapers, service industry owners etc... HEB is thinking, how do you think all that produce, meat and eggs end up in our store?
  19. Same song different verse
  20. The only thing stopping him from jumping off a highway bridge into an 18 wheeler is the support and reinforcement of his cult. When faced with the crushing reality of failure and inevitable consequences the main narcissist in my life did just that.
  21. He only listens to his echo chamber and those people tell him that it’s a brilliant strategy.
