  1. The Buddha got fat after he became enlightened.
  2. Idgaf about the royals, except to wonder when they’ll be tried for killing Lady D.
  3. The right has deluded itself for decades. It’s what they do and why they continue to believe Republicans are fiscally responsible and that the media is leftist.
  4. Echoes “NATO forced Putin to invade Ukraine “logic.””
  5. I’ve already shared my family history on this site, but this is a great thread. For all the ex-pats:
  6. Psycho ain’t gonna learn what he doesn’t want to know, so why bother?
  7. For the record, political party affiliation of ex-cons: “The survey was distributed in March 2020. Of White respondents, 36% identified as Republicans, 30% Independent, and 18% Democrats. Only 11% of Black respondents identified as Republicans, while 29% identified as Independent and 45% as Democrats.“ https://www.prisonlegalnews.org/news/2020/aug/1/survey-8000-prisoners-political-views-finds-surprising-results/
  8. FAFO looked strong out of the gate, but prepare your anus is leading on the home stretch.
  9. As an antisemite, you don’t have to cop to being dumb. It’s understood. Oh, and fuck you.
  10. OP’s theory of everything sucks. He doesn’t mention mama, or prison, or trains or trucks, or getting drunk. No way he’s getting Texas to secede, much less stopping dubya dubya three, without getting drunk.
  11. The Constitution no longer means shit for one of our political parties, and SCOTUS has fully embraced Calvinball.
  12. Went to the birthday party of a local judge a few years back. He had the same piñata and favors.
  13. “Ban on assault weapons!” Subscribed.
  14. “There’s no place for politically based violence.” - Biden Republicans sit on their asses.
  15. Youngest woman ever elected Senator. Name’s Britt, and she’s from Alabama.
  16. “You think of him as short; but he’s not.” -Maddow, on Garland
  17. “Only voters registered as Republicans should be allowed to vote in the Republican primary.” Uh, no.
  18. You must not have children Congratulations on a great bit.
  19. I’m posting the following in this thread because I don’t know where such a thread would belong, and because the cattle industry is part of what drives climate change. Our eldest told me about alpha-gal. It is the cause of a syndrome that results in an allergy to food made from mammals. The allergy can be deadly. The alpha-gal syndrome is believed to be predominantly spread by Lone Star ticks, though ticks in other countries can carry alpha-gal, too. The name alpha-gal reminds me of Mother Nature. I wasn’t surprised this info was new to me when I learned it was first described in 2002, and was linked to ingesting mammal based products, not only flesh and milk, but derivatives, too, in 2008. The syndrome is now an emerging concern, as “reported cases of AGS are still on the rise. Salzer’s report recorded over 90,000 suspected AGS cases from 2017 to 2022; nearly three times the 34,000 suspected cases documented between 2010 and 2018.” The resulting allergy might well last the rest of an individual’s life. https://www.cdc.gov/ticks/alpha-gal/index.html https://www.statnews.com/2023/07/27/alpha-gal-syndrome-lone-star-tick-bite-red-meat-allergy/ tldr Alpha-gal (galactose-α-1,3-galactose) is a sugar molecule found in most mammals. Alpha-gal is not found in fish, reptiles, birds, or people. Alpha-gal can be found in meat (pork, beef, rabbit, lamb, venison, etc.) and products made from mammals (including gelatin, cow’s milk, and milk products). Contracting AGS could mean that your next hamburger or steak, will end your life.
  20. Given that these folks see Trump as an instrument of God’s will despite his life of depravity, it is clear the Christian Nationalists believe Christianity is just another chance to play Calvinball. (I understand that many other people believe it has always been Calvinball). So the tfg’s current message is to frame the 2024 election as a Christian battle, akin to D-Day. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-portrays-2024-race-christian-battle-akin-d-day-2024-02-23/ As to individual rights, a patriot knows the ninth and tenth Amendments secure every right, enumerated or not. Once the right to privacy was acknowledged, and codified into law, a patriot knows that under the Bill of Rights it cannot be taken away, absent a Constitutional Amendment. Hence, whatever a Christian Nationalist is, they are not patriots. Fuck them.
