  1. It’s not complicated. It’s ego and narcissism. The redpill incel Musk fanboi crowd wants to make him a god, wants to elevate him above all humans who have ever lived. And he desperately WANTS to be god: adored, unquestioned, with omnipotent power, able to do whatever he wants. The only thing standing in the way of him being the god he dreams of being is…everyone to the “left” of his fanboi crowd. Thus, he hates those people. Because they stand against god (Elon). There is never a need to over analyze Elon. What would a psychotic narcissist with a god complex do/feel? Then that’s what Elon will do/feel.
  2. I love this. See guys, we MADE them be fascist authoritarians. They don’t want to, but because we didn’t coddle them, Ana treat them like the snowflakes they claim to loathe, they HAD to vote for her fascist authoritarian! LOOK WHAT YOU MADE ME DO!!!

    Fucking. Rigoni.
  4. Wait…that’s not a spoof account? They meant what they said? That has to be a spoof.
  5. Saw one of these out in the wild yesterday. Holy shit, didn’t know they were still around:
  6. Kilgore Rangerettes back in the day.
  7. “You think black people are humans entitled to equal treatment, I think they’re inferior mud people on par with animals. We don’t all have to agree, do we?” When it comes to whether you treat my fellow humans with dignity, decency, and respect, there’s no room for disagreement. Go fuck yourself.
  8. Again….it ain’t about how hot she looks, it’s about how dirty she is. A 6 who will wield a strap-on like a dagger and shit on your chest on command is better than a 9 who just lays there once a quarter. So sayeth the future king.
  9. The treason IS the winning to these folks. Never forget that. They don’t want you to matter or count, ever again.
  10. Elon is all in for two things: protecting nazis, and free speech. Except, ummm, disregard that second thing. Really, he's just all about all the nazi shit.
  11. Just sent you a link to my Onlyfans page.....it's quite.....specialized.
  12. There's a good bit of Goodheart's "Somewhere people vs. Anywhere people" in there. https://thinktheology.co.uk/blog/article/anywheres_and_somewheres His perspective is British, but it's definitely applicable here: In a lot of ways, my original post and what I (and my daughter) wrestle with is that we don't fit neatly into either paradigm. We're facially "Anywhere" people, but we are deeply tied to our place of origin. We're acutely aware of how it shaped and formed us, and how it will always define us, and that those things can be good. It's actually a challenging dichotomy to live with. I am deeply loyal to, and aware of my ties to, "place." But I am also global in my perspective, and ultimately can see myself living in any number of places. I like people, I will make community where I am. But I will always be a son of Texas. Always. You're correct - what people are moving to isn't "here be dragons" country, but going someplace that is not home, is far away from what you know and your support systems, is deeply scary, because we are creatures of the familiar. And for those left behind, it's hard as well. It's been that way for immigrants forever. It's pretty intimidating to think back on my relatives who got on a boat from Spain in 1780 to head to Mexico, never to return. Or my wife's family, leaving Scotland in the 1850s to make their lives in the US. Leaving your family, and your native land, behind to launch a life in "the new world" -- what an amazing, terrifying thing. I've posted it around here before, but I think the song Kilkelly, Ireland is incredibly beautiful and powerful. It's a series of verses that are based on letters from a father left behind in Ireland, writing to his son who has gone to America to find his future. Most of the verses end with his father saying "we hope you'll come home to visit," or "we hope you'll be coming home soon." Until the last verse, which is a letter written by his brother: Kilkelly, Ireland, 18 and 92, my dear brother John I'm sorry that I didn't write sooner to tell you that father passed on. He was living with Brigid, she says he was cheerful And healthy right down to the end. Ah, you should have seen him play with The grandchildren of Pat McNamara, your friend. And we buried him alongside of mother, Down at the Kilkelly churchyard. He was a strong and a feisty old man, Considering his life was so hard. And it's funny the way he kept talking about you, He called for you in the end. Oh, why don't you think about coming to visit, We'd all love to see you again. That last verse absolutely. Fucking. Breaks me. Every goddamned time. Leaving all that you've known, all that's familiar and secure. It takes courage. And it creates separation. You leave so much behind. And there are those who are left behind, and what they feel as well. They will still "call for you in the end," across oceans. My daughter was messaging us earlier. She's definitely in that "I'm sad, weirdly homesick, afraid, and alone...but I'm stuck and can't go back" phase of the move. She's felt this each move she's made before, and she knows how it goes, and that she'll adjust quickly and thrive wherever she is (she is already a "native soul" of Montreal and Gothenburg, for example). But the emotions are human, they are there, and they are consistent. She'll be okay. I hope, and strongly suspect, that she will find a way to thrive, and launch herself. As we all must, someday. We are made to be together. We are made to be in close-knit communities. But we are also made to walk over that horizon, into something new and frightening. The same thing can be both beautiful and terrifying. Hell, life is both of those things across the board.
  13. The problems that these cases point to are NOT that our DA is awful (he is) or that our system of justice is "soft on crime" (it really isn't). It's that...for the millionth fucking time.....we have SO fucked up the issue of mental health in this country it's beyond belief. It's a disservice to the public -- there's fucking dangerous people who are utterly disconnected from reality just walking around, ready to cause tremendous harm/death. And it's even a disservice to the dangerous people themselves -- when they are not psychotic, they generally very very much want what most of us want: to live their lives without being hurt or hurting anyone else. But, having a mental healthcare apparatus worth a shit would be pussy communism socialism, and these crazy people should just pull themselves up by their bootstraps and if they fail in that we should execute them. Just so. Fucking. Stupid. It's maddening.
  14. This. All was lost the moment that Trump was let into the GQP (there's definitely an argument that all was lost even before, and Trump was the culmination of the enshittening). But it was definitely all lost the day he was welcomed into a party made up of the weakest, most spineless, unprincipled hateful cowards the world has ever seen. Once that happened, no good outcome was possible. All paths forward are very, very, very bad. It's just a question of how bad, and even that's hard to discern. It's like asking whether you'd prefer to experience the firebombing of Tokyo or the nuking of Hiroshima. Either one of those.....is fucking AWFUL. But that's where we are with the disease of Trumpism. The disease will kill us. Or the cure will kill us. Either way, we're a dead country walking.
  15. Yeah....but did the pilots bang on the side of the control panel like the Fonz to get things back in line? That's like, step 1 in the troubleshooting manual. So, it could still be pilot error. Or, they just might not have been as cool as Fonzie.
  16. Oh, those of us of a certain age know how to find inspiration in the most obscure of places. But that's not the issue. It's that consumers have become quite used to easy access to high quality spank material.....and now they're gonna have to go back to erotic cave paintings ( @Armybrat ). And that regression won't go down easily. It's like the old song said.....
  17. Yep. I just got this message from this coming summer:
  18. That's the magic of Luby's. It's a mix-and-match of whatever you like. Fried fish with pintos and mexican rice? Have at it. Meatloaf with sauteed cabbage and mac and cheese, jello for dessert? Four random sides and a piece of jalapeno cornbread? You do you. America, freedom, excellence, big American titties, fireworks, Luby's.....
  19. He is NOT secure. The SS is a den of MAGA. When the time comes, there are plenty of agents who will actively ASSIST in a violent attempt to take out Biden/the Biden administration.
  20. He's never going to face any serious consequences. Ever. I don't know why some folks still don't get it. The system simply isn't designed to handle malfeasance at his level. And even in the instances where it is, sorta....the fascist autocratic movement that is the GQP has simply ground the machine to a halt. in or out of office, Donald Trump is the closest thing to an absolute monarch this country has had since we kicked the English out. "The King Can do no Wrong." That's the rule. If Trump does it, it's okay, because he's Trump, and he can do whatever he wants because he is our One True King (and yes, the "divine right of kings" fits here as well -- Trump is anointed by God himself).

    So, we have an extra for tomorrow's match -- Section 118, row 9. Reply or DM if interested.
  22. A hot princess shitting in a bag? There's a buncha guys around here like this:
  23. Oh, Nicole. Do you really not know the rule of "it ain't necessarily about how hot they are, it's about how dirty they are?" This gal will do the kinky shit that William (and NowThis, apparently) dig: THAT'S what matters, in the end. See what I did there?
  24. Better than Milan, Indiana. So....there's that.
