Polling issues causing some angst and a potential Biden health scare aside, am I the only one who feels like this isn't going to be particularly close? I don't think Trump can count on all of these people switching to him in the General. Meanwhile, he's out of money and the RNC is out of money to really do much about it.
The one thing that could upset the apple cart is as black swan event, like a huge terror attack coordinated by people who had come across the border.

I guess it sort of makes sense. Both states are booming, economically, under Biden.

The Daily podcast detailed this and how Trump absorbing the RNC is a gambit to overcome Biden's money advantage.

Seems like that would have negative consequences down ballot, no?- 1

I appreciate wit and comedy, like most humans on Planet Earth.
But, sadly, I have come to realize these "political" comedians (Maher, Jimmy Kimmel, Trevor Noah, Seth Myers, Jon Stewart, etc.) are little more than corporate/media/comedy approved court jesters, tricksters, and clowns.
-- They are like late night ice cream, snacks, or junk food. They might taste great, but are little more than sugar hits and calories that require more exercise the next day.
In effect, the comedians are simulacra (copies in which original is no longer present) of critique that mask the near total absence of he systematic critique of the true conditions that produced MAGA-GQP Trump.
In addition to the obvious racism and fascism (mostly ignored in media), there is the ideological and media consumption of our future overlords:
-- TV's endless idiocy
-- Worship of celebrities, billionaires, and football players.
-- World Wrestling crap
-- Religious fanaticism, creationism, fundamentalism (all with 99.99% free pass in media)
-- Anti-science building for 40-50 years with the religious fanaticism
-- The History Channel showing Ancient Aliens, conspiracy lunacy, Nostradamus and apocalyptic "End Times" biblical prophecy shows for f*cking decades.
-- Paranormal and pseudoscience hit shows like The X-Files and in numerous Hollywood films. Bigfoot Hunter and Ghost Hunter shows, to name a few more.
-- The near total absence of legit science (and its many meanings for humanity) in the media. The Science Channel is filled with idiot world shows more than real science. Sagan's and Tyson's Cosmos series are great, but nowhere near anough.
-- Not much on legit environmentalism, except for Attenborough's great docs from BBC.
-- The list is endless in our 24/7 media spectacle. Any evidentiary and empirical standards are mostly non-existent.
All amplified by social media into a virulent malignant cancer in pop consciousness.
TLDR: Comedians ain't saving us, but enjoy the late-night sugar hits.
Comedians aren't supposed to be saving us. Historically, that is not in their job description. Historically, their job description has been to provide sugar hits.
If you want to blame somebody for the content that's provided, blame us, the audience. The history channel is only showing us what we, via our eyeballs, are telling them we want.- 2

While Canyon Lake is at historic lows, my dipshit Californian neighbors next door water their shitty yard full of weeds 3-4 times per week all night while we are in stage 3 restrictions. Meanwhile I haven’t irrigated once this year and my Bermuda looks miles better than anyone on my street with zero weeds.
Fucking maddening.
"The tragedy of the commons refers to a situation in which individuals with access to a public resource (also called a common) act in their own interest and, in doing so, ultimately deplete the resource.This economic theory was first conceptualized in 1833 by British writer William Forster Lloyd. In 1968, the term “tragedy of the commons” was used for the first time by Garret Hardin in Science Magazine.
This theory explains individuals’ tendency to make decisions based on their personal needs, regardless of the negative impact it may have on others. In some cases, an individual’s belief that others won’t act in the best interest of the group can lead them to justify selfish behavior. Potential overuse of a common-pool resource—hybrid between a public and private good— can also influence individuals to act with their short-term interest in mind, resulting in the use of an unsustainable product and disregard the harm it could cause to the environment or general public."

I would say if you are born with balls, and cant figure out that you are genetically a man.....you know what youre right. Theyre not dumb. They are mentally ill. Thanks for the clarification!!!!!
I would say that if you were born in the United States, have a University of Texas education, and can't write a grammatically correct sentence in a day and age when AI is right at your fingertips, you probably shouldn't be posting about the intellectual abilities of others.
Five mistakes even AFTER editing? SHEESH!

I think I posted this in another thread, but it seems like a huge trend with my demographic (age, kids' age, jobs/education, race) is that people who bought into Frisco when it was considered the BFE and South Oklahoma that no cool or hip person would move to, built/bought a house for 300-500k like 20 years ago. Well, the last 24 months through present, everyone is selling for $1-2mm then going even further to north Prosper or Celina and buying a good amount of land (or at least acreaged lots) and custom building the dream home with best in breed trim and fixings, and still pocketing a huge amount of cash liquid.
This worked really well during Covid-19 and when WFH was 100%. What sucks is if you have to get downtown as, with traffic, it's like a 90 minute drive in rush hour. Seriously. Even just getting back to Frisco/Legacy West is like 30 minutes. Might as well report in to an Oklahoma City office at this point.
I hear Ardmore is the hottest new thing.- 1
