  1. just fucking infuriating. these fucks can intimidate a parent who wanted to protect their kids. and people pay them to do this. while also paying them to not do their actual job. and the fucking beat rolls
  2. goddamn this country is taliban 2.0. or will be shortly.
  3. slowest civil war ever
  4. I think a big reason for the inaction in Uvalde is that it was a political event of sorts, not a tragedy. Humans can act quite heroically when the unthinkable happens. However, school shootings are no longer tragedies and no longer unthinkable. its BAU and everyone fucking froze. arming more people, teachers, security, more departments will simply add up to more inaction, finger pointing and dead kids. There is no solution to this crisis any longer as its firmly now 100% absorbed into the political culture war.
  5. wow. that is torbushian if i have ever torbushed. the complete lack of principled men in leadership is astounding, even for me, who gave us 20 years ago.
  6. paging battleshiptexan to the red surly hurricane phone
  7. been gone since 2019. If we move back to the US it will not be Texas. I just can't do it. I don't find Austin that nice at all anymore (visiting now) and the rest of the state is full of people more than happy to go full fascist, so whatever. I will certainly have to get closer to US sometime soon enough, prob mexico (if not a firm blue state) If others are in and/or considering Mexico I would appreciate their input. I can do the same for Oz but don't think any of you motherfuckers are heading that far
  8. i got here somehow. i don't know where i am. but i am leaving now. toodles
  9. 105 forecast for houston? did i see that shesh. good luck with that.
  10. damn. man thats fucked they can't get produce from the highlands? ^^ its eternal spring there and veggies grow like weeds. guayakill is a rough place man. never made it there for good reasons i hear.
  11. it can't be stated enough - this is the biggest piece of BS of this whole spectacle. Along with the chief being absent, the DA/city kicking out parents/media, and the various threats to parents and media to report on this. This is a horrible precedent top to bottom from the cocksucking leadership in this fucking state.
  12. russia calling something unlawful. aggy drips off these motherfuckers
  13. im right there with you. had dinner with one of best friends and his family last night. haven't seen them in years. both are educators in Texas. I didn't want to bring this up at all, but they did. Just awful. Seething with anger, sadness, fear and tears. Talked about the drills, what their kids ask them and so on. Just makes me so fucking ragey that we do nothing to help out the teachers. instead we attack them with conspiracy theories and other BS. Of all the BS wrong in society we have one group the appears hellbent to attack teachers with trans bathroom choice, CRT and whatever fox tells them to panic about next. What a fucking timeline 🤬. i want my fucking money back.
  14. hmm. I think the core issue is the stock market was setup to work around a manufacturing economy. hiring, training, creating and valuing a relationship with your clients was just completely different than it is now. and yes now its nothing but short term decisions to drive out results needed NOW. the consumer is the ultimate loser. I left a public company in 2019 and - from the time of being public first (2012) through to '19 we just upped the price and lowered quality. over and over again. We went from spending 80% of our time on client facing work to more like 20 or 30% of our time. We bought more companies, murdered the products, and then dissolved half the staff. rinse and repeat. It was at the point in our particular industry that clients would tell us "please don't buy company X" as we really need their work. I felt like we were the fucking borg. Just murdering competition and eliminating options for our clients. but we of course had a motto of CUSTOMERS FIRST. uh huh paging @hayden_horn to corporate red phone. Past that, i trace most this past decade of shit back to the bank bailouts and making money free. Such an incredible disservice to the American consumer. Greatest goddamn heist ever.
  15. yeah twas gonna spike with this heat and AC use. hope everyone gets past it fast (and doesn't give it to me for another round. i am over that shit)
  16. hey look money isn't free anymore. way to go boomers. proud of you we all are
  17. flood the large extinction volcano before it kills us all. well done earth.
  18. just happy seeing the dude on his feet again
  19. i don't know. i think the stupidity of him (and his cabal), and also willingness to spew random jibberish, is very much an attraction to his voters not even talking about the other shit. the racism, sexism, regardism and other isms they loved him for
