  1. He is perpetually frozen as an emotionally and mentally stunted petulant toddler. That's it. That's the entire psychological analysis. He's a shitty spoiled tantrum-having 4 year old. Donny two-scoops. He's one of the most pathetic creatures in human history. And this fucked up country managed to elevate him to the most powerful position on the planet. If you were to compile a list of all living Americans who are least suited for the office of President, he'd be very near the top, and I'm including that homeless dude who comes out from under the bridge after eating his own feces to yell at cars for stealing his pet dragon.
  2. Well, because I'd prefer not to say "shoot those evil fuckers" on a message board. That's counter to public policy and the law and that stuff. Also, the law is very, very good at one thing in particular, especially when the opposing party is a private person (that is, not the US government): grinding the opposing party down to miserable dust. The legal system is hell on individuals, and can drag that hell out for a long time. When you have "put them through living hell" on the menu, you should order it. With extra cheese.
  3. By the way...THIS is when you file a lay-down defamation suit and bankrupt every last one of these evil fucks.
  4. He's trying to polish that FIFA peace prize for sure.
  5. Of course, we've already had a preview of this, when the Harlem Globetrotters narrowly avoided tragedy when their plane had to land on Gilligan's Island.
  6. I mean, unsurprising. Cuz Iowa.
  7. I'd be thrilled if they "may reportedly" achieve having a CEO who isn't a giant, sociopathic, malevolent lump of shit in 2026.
  8. Would you like to place a wager on how long it takes before this is an actual real-deal suggestion (stop using humans for some sport, replace it with AI-generated games) by one of these "AI thought-leader" types? Shit, I'll put the over/under at 6 months. And if I'm going to wager, I'll take the under.
  9. I don't smoke enough weed for that. Cheech and Chong don't smoke enough weed for that.
  10. Yeah...see below. I work downtown, I see (not kidding) 20-40 Waymos a day, in not much time on the road downtown. I work downtown, I see (not kidding) 20-40 Waymos a day, in not much time on the road downtown. I would estimate that maybe 10% of the time, there's a passenger in the car. So, no, the case for "this is more cost-effective than bus service" is nowhere even close to being made. If it DOES end up being made, someday, that's great. I'm a fan of us getting to the best possible outcome in terms of actually providing transportation, and doing so in the most cost-effective way. But I don't think that single driverless cars seem like a fix that should totally replace mass transit. AND, understand that the public almost always subsidizes mass transit to make it affordable to lower income folks (who heavily depend on it). So, there's that as well. If it costs Poor Peter $25 to get to work and home each day, instead of $6, dude is gonna be fucked. Public transportation is a public service, in part. It is almost never intended or designed to be profitable or even break-even. Fares help defray costs, even in most of the best-designed systems; they don't cover all the costs.
  11. Yet....I think he is also the most self-aware about his lack of qualifications. He knows he doesn't belong there, and has an inkling of "that may not be a good thing." The other two are too fucking stupid and venal to get that far in their lizard brains.
  12. Just make sure to hire a good work team to do it. Steer clear of starving MAGAs, they just want to game the system and get their disability checks and shit. Maybe hire you some mexicans, and get that shit done right, quick, and for a good price.
  13. What is it? A WIN. That's what it is.
  14. Motte and bailey, after saying "good things can be continued," retreat to "I don't really care." Never met a logical fallacy he can't engage in. Truly a 5-tool player in that respect. Impressive.
  15. It is a society of subservient peasants. Always has been, always will be. You could hand them the world on a platter, opportunities beyond most people's dreams.....and they'd be back to being subservient peasants in less than a generation. It is their nature. There is no Russian culture without that unbreakable foundation. Life is worth little there because their culture places little value on life. It's the damndest thing, you'd think eventually they'd work their way out of that way of thinking, but the culture and ethos of Russia has been utterly unchanged for centuries. They produce some nifty literature and music and such.....and an unbroken line of being peasants who don't even see their own lives as having any value.
  16. "Brisket has continued to pay on his mortgage, yes at a reduced level. According to that article Brisket is paying his mortgage at greater than a 2 to 1 ratio compared to his neighbors combined." We provided aid of X. More than anyone else, and added to aid from other sources. Collectively, it was barely enough to get some better-than-awful results. We then slashed our aid to 50% of X. Results are now awful. And this....is a triumph. Fan-fucking-tastic. There's truly nothing this admin does, or could do, that you don't chalk up as a win. Your lurch from "both sides" to "other than perhaps his decorating taste, everything the admin does is a net positive," has been entertaining to watch. When the head of the FBI is such a fucking incompetent clown that his subordinate incompetent clown can't stand working for him anymore.....chef's kiss.
  17. If you're weak in any of the other Ps, just amp up another P to make up for it. The Product is hate. The party unifies people around hate. If the guy selling that isn't the right People.....just crank out more amped up Product. It works. It always works. Hate has done more to change humanity than any other factor. It's the world's great change agent.
  18. A dumbass who commits the "only" fallacy, failing to acknowledge that it's "both," not an "either/or." You can't be much of a hegemon without the ability to apply violence/hard power, at the very least as a deterrent/protection. Shit, just having a navy powerful enough to secure trade routes is and long has been a big part of it. BUT, you don't innovate, sell goods, and create incredible lucrative economic systems by pointing a gun at the rest of the world and saying "buy my shit or else." Having a system based on the rule of law here at home, which allows us to enforce agreements and transactions via the courts, instead of by threat and violence, is an innovation and growth accelerator (as just one example of how our "ideas and values" are a huge part of our overall success). These fucksticks at once claim to be lords of complex systems, yet consistently fail to grasp how complex systems work. We wouldn't be where we are without our hard power. We ALSO wouldn't be where we are without our systems of ideas and values. Both. We need both. Instead, they champion the one value that they themselves want to be the whole answer, for self-serving reasons. Gosh, the boss at Palantir wants the answer to American success be "we kill people all the time everywhere always without remorse." He champions that approach? Gosh....
  19. "Well, uh...hemlock makes a nice gift."
  20. Yes, you do. Just follow the rules: It only gets worse. There is no bottom.
  21. "The adults are back in charge," exhibit eleventy billion, right @realgreggym?
  22. What disingenuous bullshit. "Brisketexan has actually paid $1,000 a month as a house payment, totaling $12,000 in 2025, according to Brisketexan." Gosh, sure seems like Bristketexan is doing everything right. That's a chunk of cash! But...leaving out the paragraph above that text: "Brisketexan has slashed the amount he pays on his house payment in half, from $2,000 to $1,000, leaving his mortgage underpaid by 50% for the year." Here's what Ana left out: What he posted, which was intended to make you believe that the US is providing the necessary level of funding to alleviate the crisis, and that funding has been restored or somesuch, was a lie by omission.
  23. If they suspend him, Trump will issue an executive order banning the Rams from playing or some shit, and he will 100% have the DOJ investigate and indict every member of the Rams' ownership group on charges of "being bad" or some shit. Private enterprises cannot take any action against racists/bigots/magats because the US government will punish them for doing so.
  24. Oh, and by "justice," I mean a campaign of revenge that would make Trump blush. Zero federal dollars to any state controlled by the GOP. Zero health care dollars, including ACA dollars, to any such state. No FEMA or disaster aid to any such state. Nothing. Not a fucking penny. This is how they want it to be. So, let it fucking BE. They will not understand, they will NEVER understand, until they are teetering on knife edge of life/death, and experiencing horrific suffering. Cool. We need to educate them, because the universe isn't.
