And...this is important, because this is how you do it, MAGA fucks....good. Fuck that guy. He'll be sowing hate and disinfo till his dying breath, and thus it can't come soon enough.

So did anything happen from that call that was scheduled this morning?
It was a tremendous call, really tremendous. The best call, really. A call the likes of which we've never seen. We're going to get a great deal, a fantastic deal, you won't believe how great this deal is, and I'll be telling you about this great deal very, very soon. Nobody but me could get a deal this amazing, really.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Great walking city.
This might be my wife's favorite department store on earth: https://www.illumsbolighus.com/ Great stuff in there, classic Danish designs, not overly expensive. She has a great pair of wool slippers from there that stay out in our house year round.
For a "michelin star" quality meal that won't set you back, and is truly up there with some of the best meals I've ever had, go to Høst. Current menu:
QuoteHØST MENU 5 COURSES Smoked scallops with cucumber and horseradish (+ Caviar 100,-) - Lightly baked cod with green asparagus and trout roe - Creamy potatoes with peas and truffle - Schnitzel of Chicken with morrels and white asparagus eller Beef tenderloin with madagascar pepper and white asparagus (+125,-) eller Grilled lobstertail with lobster cream and white asparagus (+150,-) - Rhubarb with cardamom and caramel 500 dkk That price = $75 per person. It's an insane deal.
Hit up the Torvehallerne for porridge at the Grød booth and smorrebrod for lunch/snack one day.
Little Mermaid statute is overrated. Go see it anyway, make fun of it.
Nyhavn is overdone. Go anyway, you need to see it, and it's a neat walk down the harbor.
Go to Rosenborg castle, the grounds and park are beautiful this time of year. And there's a room/display in there of some prince's kinky sex room.
Is Tivoli Gardens just an amusement park? Yes....but it's kinda a thing, and we enjoyed it.

watch these 2 segments. fucking nailed it. holy shit.
1) Do you think that anyone whose vote actually might matter will ever watch that?
2) there is no 2). The information ecosystem is done. Spew hate at fucking tsunami levels, on a select number of social media and podcast channels. That's it. That's the entire plan. Either follow it as a counter, or be toast.

Billionaires. You’ve seen me say it many times here. When hate is needed, point to the billionaires.
Not enough.
See, there's a second part that's really, really important: Americans are pathetic and worthless creatures. A message of hate is only effective if it is ALSO easy to execute on. And who is it easy to hate, and execute that hate on? That's right....the weak and marginalized. Hating the powerful? Nope. Too much work. The powerful can fight back.
We are Americans. We ONLY punch down, we never punch up.
The problem is us, top to bottom. We are a worthless, contemptible people, which means we only do worthless, contemptible things.

Leave humans alone, and fix the fucking potholes man. It ain’t hard.
It's more than hard. It's impossible.
Unless your messaging includes a strong dose of hate, and telling people who to hate, it will never leave the starting blocks. Hate is the only currency of any social value these days. Trying to trade in anything else is like trying to engage in commerce using your bottlecap collection as money.
I know a lot of y'all want to believe that's not the case. But you are wrong.

An alternate correct answer to this query is "stop wherever the hell you want....but the next morning, make sure to get up early, have breakfast at the nearest Waffle House, and get in a fight with a member of the staff, another patron, or both, in order to expose your kids to the full Waffle House experience." You want your kids to grow up cultured, don't you?

You are literally so braindead that you have no idea that you actually just made the strongest possible argument for bitcoin and against the US dollar LOL.
If the USD goes "poof"....pray tell, what GOOD will your crypto be? How will you use it to procure goods and services here in the "we don't actually have a currency" USA? Will you be able to access the internet? Use electricity?
If the USD goes "poof," none of that shit will matter or be in play.
If you are investing in a hedge against the dollar's complete and total collapse, as a resident of this country, you'd be much smarter investing in crates of ammunition.

They want their slaves back.
Bingo. See the legislation Louisiana is working on passing - you can injure or even kill your undocumented worker, and have ZERO liability in a civil suit.
"Make treating humans like chattel legal again" is their motto. They don't want to get rid of undocumented labor. Not even a little bit. They just want to get rid of anything that would make it costlier than outright slavery.
We are past the 50/50 point on whether the SCOTUS will take up a case to rule that the 13th amendment flat-out doesn't apply to undocumented persons.

Only downside though is the drive from where we are staying to where we would stay in New Orleans is 11 1/2 hours. That is with no stops. I'll be pretty much beat by that point. I won't want to do anything.
Do you even "hit the bar that night, then have a kickass brunch the next day," bro?

It's the Christian way.
And if you want to know why "Christian" has become a fucking toxic brand for many people with a shred of decency and humanity, you've nailed the issue.
The loudest, most aggressive and adversarial "Christians" (PROTECT CHRISTIANS! WE ARE UNDER ATTACK! OUR VALUES ARE UNDER ATTACK!) are the exact same people who practice cruelty and a complete lack of basic human decency with near-religious fervor. The most sacred American "Christian" belief is the belief in the absolute right -- nay, obligation -- to be a complete and total fucking dick.

Polio?! Good God.
Make Humanity Diseased as Fuck Again.
We're getting rid of food safety laws and inspections (all the unpasteurized milk you can drink! No more inspections of food plants/operations!)
We're functionally getting rid of/drastically reducing the very vaccines that have saved millions upon millions of human lives, and eradicated or nearly eradicated horrific diseases.
Things were obviously much, much better when the average lifespan was about half of what it is today -- Make America 1860 Again!

Coursework? Yes. But my grad research and subsequent career path was in structural FEA and electromechanics. I have finally come full circle and I'm now designing loudspeakers, which is what I wanted to do in the first place.
We respect you for that, but we have doubts about your marketing plan to exclusively sell the product out of white vans in big-box store parking lots, claiming that someone else "placed a messed up order, and now I have to unload these for whatever I can get for them."

A normal presidency, or government, will not be a thing for the foreseeable future. Even if Dems win it all back. If they do, it means they will have completely changed the way they campaign and govern. And if they don’t, that means Rs are still in power and this shit is continuing.
There’s no going back now.
This. This is the immutable truth. For the foreseeable future, we will be led by Trumpist Republicans, or Dems who have finally figured out how to play the Trumpist game.
Either way, populist, lie-based idiocy, practicing cruelty against the opposition is our only possible future. -

Last November exit polls seem to offer hope: Moderates and Independents make up a large percentage of voters. Source was NBC News.


“Moderate” means “I only want to expel all minorities from the country, not kill them.” And “independent” means “I once voted for a Dem for a local office because he was an old friend of mine.” Those labels are lies. -
Twice in this game Uzuni made super weird decisions to pull back when I thought he could have pushed forward. Particularly early in first half where he could have battled forward then just passed it across the field.
I am not seeing it from him. Bukari clearly has a ton of skill, but he and Gallagher don’t seem to connect well along the side.
It just feels like a bunch of guys that haven’t played together, and I guess there is some truth to that.
My wife is all about “they aren’t playing together as a team.” I’m all about “nobody in this world is better at killing their own momentum than this team.” They get an advantage or breakaway…and if it’s not PERFECT….they seize up and start back-passing, killing any scoring chance they may have had. It’s MADDENING. It’s a cousin of how our forwards insist on 4 touches at the goal when a one-touch flick, imperfect as it may be, could score. -

He is a role model, though. What kind of pandering to Gen Z men would you have preferred? Keep in mind that, no matter what, the right-wing propaganda machine is going to have a problem with it and continue its appeal to their resentment.
Yep. My gen z son liked Tim because…that’s the kind of men he’s had modeled for him (not just by me - by all the men he’s been around, hunting, tailgating, building a deer blind, rigging up a tractor, doing a church service project, disaster relief work, etc). He IS a man’s man.
And funny enough, in terms of “modeling things that help young men get laid,” my son assures me the Walz model puts him light years ahead of his competition. Confident, competent men who treat people with the decency that a non-fragile man who isn’t trying to project false bravado can bring to bear…well, they can get all the dates they can handle.
We’re failing our young men because what we’re modeling for them as a society makes things worse for them, not better. It makes them LESS successful, and LESS desirable. -
Pew Research estimates the number of illegal aliens in the US to be 11 million, so yes, Laura is just counting all Latinos.
Because…and this is very, very important, and very, very true…it’s not about legal status. And never was. It’s about purging an entire ethnicity as “not real Americans.” The veil is gone, the justification has been dispensed with. It is about ridding this country of ALL dirty browns. It always has been, they’re just being honest now.
A Hispanic person voting for a Republican is empowering your own executioner. It’s suicidal. -
Someone who lived in London used to be a regular on the board. It seems like he disappeared.
I lived there for 2 years although it was roughly 20 years ago. The constant low cloud ceiling bothered me so probably the advice that first comes to mind is if you see the sun shining, go outside because chances are it'll be gone in an hour.
Daughter was just sharing the London mixed bag today. Yesterday was beautiful and sunny, she and a friend walked the city, went thrifitng, great day. Today…a damn half marathon through her hood, she went to Stratford, and now has to muscle through 9 million people to get home, packed streets. -
Trump’s America
in Cloak Room
Yes it is, actually. As noted above, that number is not random:
When one of the president's primary, and most trusted advisors (that's what she is) says "there are 65 million illegal aliens," that is exactly what they mean. If you are hispanic, they believe that you are not an actual American, you have no right to be here, and they intend to use the full weight and force of the US government to kick us out. At the very least, they have wet dreams about "Korematsu II, Except This Time, for Beaners."
1) Declare that we are being invaded by the brown hispanic horde.
2) That is a hostile "invasion," thus invoke the Alien Enemies Act, while ALSO declaring that because we are being invaded, the writ of habeas corpus is suspended.
3) Arrest any and all browns, people whose names end in Z, all that shit. They are alien enemies, AND they have no ability to contest their arrest (no more habeas).
4) Shove them into massive internment camps (run by for-profit enterprises that will kick back a sizable portion of what they receive to the Trump family) all over the country (but....most of them will be conveniently located near where cheap labor, ag labor, etc. is needed), because...
5) All those captive hispanics will then be farmed out to large corporate contributors to the regime as ultra-cheap labor. Labor is priced at $10 per hour. Prison operator gets $8 of that, inmate gets $2, and the "employer" saves a fortune because he's now paying way below the prevailing wage.
And that, folks, is how you make slavery functionally legal again.
