  1. Not a fan either. I guess I understand why some women do it, and if it was important to a friend of mine I figure it's not my business to say... but it's not my cup of tea. She figured out a good way to shift gears on her career path choices and it seems to be working for her.
  2. What I wouldn't give for some brave soul in the White House to stand by that paint-by-number and shout, A Sharpie, A Sharpie, my kingdom for a Sharpie! since Shakespeare truly understood power and those who seek it. However it would be wasted upon the dolts currently residing there.
  3. She is smoking hot (although I defer to the male eye's judgement) and that is excellent work on her nose I must say, although I think she overdoes the lip treatment a bit, but for someone just over 40 she does look good. Until you can book her for the 'water therapy counseling' session you desire, why don't you check her out in Playboy (8 times) or one of her movies, such as Vixens From Venus? She had quite a career before returning to school and getting a master's in Clinical Psychology. She has an interesting bio and here's a little more should anyone care read about it (or order a custom video!) https://www.ocweekly.com/b-movie-actress-custom-video-director-and-sex-therapist-erika-jordan-loves-love/
  4. Put those kids toddlers to work! It should be noted that Jessica's answer was ignored by Jeanine who kept on talking. Fox doing Fox things.
  5. Kirkland & Ellis was former DOJ Barr's firm correct? No surprise there.
  6. I used to consider most people as kind at heart and some part of me still wants to go with that, but lately it's been tough. Empathy as a weakness? (geez doesn't that soundbite tweet feel like it was ages ago?) It also sounds so straight out of Putin's mouth it makes me want to puke. People who didn't vote for this mess are going to be hurt by it in more ways than economically and won't have the $$ to climb out of it.
  7. I suspect he also has crunchy hair due to product and yeah, he doesn't want that to get messed up. He's very vain about stuff like that but in the wrong ways.
  8. So true and...
  9. NGL, corps kowtowing to political chicanery and rolling back inclusivity with respect to both customers and employees as well as consumer protection policies does not have us wanting to buy anything that isn't strictly necessary. Fuck the regime's cries of don't panic. Yeah, sure, I'll believe a mobster standing in front of my door with his goons behind him saying that with a smile on his face. Not. However, we do have to eat. We rarely eat out, but when we do, it's the local places. The taqueria up the street whose enchilada platter puts me in a meat coma, the Indian buffet with fantastic mutter paneer, the Korean restaurant that has a seafood pancake that is so crisp and tasty, the burger joint. Real food made by our neighbors in the community. Their costs will probably go up and therefore their prices, but we'll be there for them.
  10. I just saw a poll regarding tariffs, and young working class white males had a favorable view of them. I suspect the neighbor dudes, if collegiate (in which white college educated males polled tariffs as unfavorable by a larger margin) may get wiser but it will depend upon how effective the GOP kool-aid is at dulling their brain cells. *The poll was conducted by Marquette and is available here: https://law.marquette.edu/poll/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/MLSPSC25PressReleaseNationalIssues.pdf
  11. Not wrong on that point at all. Encouraging young people to question and be a member of the resistance (to challenge, to learn, to try and figure things out) is tricky as it can play with our own insecurities, but it can change the world.
  12. Agree. Spoilered commentary:
  13. Pick me, pick me, pick me! *Can't claim credit for Elon's appearance, some other internet denizen pointed it out....
  14. I checked around, and one of the articles compared it to a Mao pin, but what hasn't been verified as accurate is whether HE is articulating it or the sycophants are doing this of their own accord. Either is just stunningly awful though.
  15. SIAP. Not a flag, not a congressional pin but an empty golden head. Guess the loyalty test has gone full Trump Tower penthouse tacky. You can read the article at the link but it doesn't appear to be a joke. Wonder if all of the military will have to wear them in his pricey parade....
  16. An alternative outcome would be the reversion to the old belief that it is caused by the mother with the additional caveat that it is mothers in the workforce. That belief had some sticking around power for a long time until the vaccine stuff started.
  17. I'd never heard of that term for it; although I was familiar with two of the hs wampus cat mascots: the Itasca mentioned above, and one in Atoka, OK because I used to drive past it when traveling. I got the nickname for west austin from an unsourced internet comment that was also unsourced on wiki (because I'm weird like that.) So no clue about when people were using that but perhaps it's more recent for the neighborhood?
  18. This is really hard to read. I mean I've heard of leading with the bad news first, so sure, listing that a toddler spent 3 weeks hospitalized (and was likely home sick prior to that) and then following it with the two deceased girls makes sense when the Secretary continues by adding the upside: 300 children who came down with a preventable disease survived because...well thanks to the quacks I guess? it reads like a typical late night ad for copper underwear so one's penis stays energized or something. But can you imagine if one sent out a similar text after Uvalde about the 17 injured and the 21 fatalities for something that also was, for the most part, preventable? Oh, well we had 600 students survive thanks to the extraordinary efforts of....geez, sorry I'm getting disheartened by it all. Since when did progress become a pejorative?
  19. While I get the reference to west austin (wampus), this name (bolded) has an interesting crossover if the ingredient listed above is accurate 'cause a wampus cat trapping a "mouse" is next level genius.
  20. What is that orange symbol supposed to be? A cross? Chilling when one considers transporting people to one way destinations unknown for crimes, that are in some cases, rather nebulous.
  21. When talking with others I've been referring to it as the regime. It is not an administration, as that would require management and as far as I can tell, there is none, only chaos and dictates, so a dictatorship and/or regime (regimes can be democratic, but let's be clear that this is not the case based on the last 3 months).
  22. TIL (after reading an article about her and the account) that she was a real estate agent. The simulation decided to stick with the plan on that one, lol.
  23. Thank you, @bolverk for the update; Friday had 481 cases but easy to miss as I haven't been including the graphics. It's annoying that DHHS doesn't archive their updates and I suspect that is not likely to change given reasons I won't bother with at this time. ABC news had an article discussing the outbreak specific to the region (southwest/midwest) here: https://abcnews.go.com/Health/rfk-jr-claims-curve-flattening-texas-measles-outbreak/story?id=120554374 and it goes into the likelihood of cases being undercounted, something with which most of us are familiar. Southwestern Kansas has seen cases increase, and again, given that region's lower population base, one hopes that will limit spread, but it's not a given. A Lubbock daycare had 7 children (many were too young to have been fully vaccinated) infected. That's alarming.
  24. The female justices dissented. Guess Barrett suddenly realized she's not got the 'Y' gene necessary to count in this administration's future interpretations of the Constitution and its rights if she doesn't speak up.
