  1. 99.9% this with 0.1% of stop punching yourself.
  2. I posted something similar in the Trump's America thread. I think the high level of his fucking around accelerates the timeline of finding out.
  3. Half of this country is about a year away from grunts and other guttural utterances.
  4. And it was certainty "We ain't done use no . . . ." The day after add/drop ends.
  5. Regardless, it aligns with my philosophy of being relatively kind to those with whom you stand in line or have the opportunity to let merge in traffic.
  6. I was just quoting to a coworker today: "The chair is against the wall."
  7. What's the Mark Twain quote? "I did not attend his funeral, but I approved of it." Or Chris Rock: "I'm not saying I agree, but I understand." But I really don't endorse such a thing, and will not be quoted or inferred to have suggested otherwise.
  8. Around 1% of the population of this country consist of the clinically psychopathic. With the number of layoffs and general fuckery that threatens to tank democracy, the economy, increase unemployment, and drive up costs of basic needs, someone in this all too well armed country, whether they fall into that 1% grouping, is liable to decide to take a shot. I'm not saying I encourage or support such a thing. I don't. But I think the probability that it happens increases every day people of ill will continue to chisel away at the foundations of our democracy and society for their personal benefits.
  9. Bring out the Bear-Jew.
  10. I haven't thought about this song in a while, until this thread, this morning
  11. For a second, I thought about responding with a Mick Dundee photo captioned, "Job's taken." But although my usual stance is "funny is funny," this thread doesn't need that levity right now.
  12. Or, let's put it in terms of the things the republican party used to pretend to care about: limited government. Do you know how many transgender people are competitive swimmers in this country? I made a rough calculation at one point and, to no one's surprise, it is an infinitesimally small number; it is a small fraction of one percent. Why in the hell does the so-called party of limited government place this issue toward the tip of the spear, much less include it on its policy platform at all? We all know the real answer.
  13. FFT
  14. Thanks. Text group I'm in was discussing Pitzker this a.m. Now I know why. As for the rest, it all seems reasonable. As the Zen Master said, "We'll see."
  15. I'm on a cable news diet. Can you summarize? Because I need some positive news.
  16. And you said: Quick, young lady! Get those pants off!
