  1. I vacationed in maine a couple weeks ago and drove past two no kings protests with about 50 people each in small coastal towns. One was in Wells on a monday and the other in Damriscotta on a friday. Interestingly enough, there are many US flags and banners in those maine coastal towns. However, I didn’t get the maga vibe with them. It felt more nautical because ships at sea fly the flag of the country that they’re registered. It was very nice seeing the american flag all over and not getting the maga fake patriotism vibe. I also met a couple of people visiting from scotland at portland head light. We were both shockingly lucky to get parking spots right by the lighthouse. Right time right place kinda thing. Everyone else was parking several hundred yards away. We both looked at each other and laughed like we found some cheat code and started chatting with each other. I thanked them for coming to the US on vacation. I try to be a bit of an ambassador when I meet people on vacation here from other countries. One of the shops in Damriscotta doesn’t shy away from the dangers we face. The store was packed with shoppers. I chatted with the owners briefly. They would fit in here. I picked this up at their shop. It’s the size of a pack of cards. I like maine.
  2. I really want his shirt to say covfefe country
  3. BornInPoverty’s BIL is preordained to live in poverty. Does it hurt to be this stupid?
  4. Wrong. Santa is locked, loaded and pissed. Criminal libs looking to destroy christmas beware. You’re on notice. The war on christmas is on.
  5. It’s pretty obvious that santa claus is a metaphor for god to groom children into believing the unbelievable. Lives way up north. Always watching. Always judging. If you’re good, you get rewarded. If you’re bad, you get coal so that you can burn it. There’s a list. Has a bunch of indentured servants. You’re supposed to leave an offering for him. He is the sole judge of your worthiness. If you’re lucky, you might see him. Also helps if you have schizophrenia.

  7. Then get your ass out to a protest, dumbfuck. 5 protests per year minimum through 2028. Post them on social media. We demand receipts.

  9. When my stepson was planning his wedding, I took control of the alcohol planning and procurement. I told him to get a list of drinks that he and his fiancée’s friends like to drink. I compiled a list of the liquor that we needed to make the drinks plus some good whiskey, wine, champagne. I went to total wine and elicited the assistance of the staff for recommendations. Did tastings of many of their recommendations. Spent about $1500. Total wine said I could return any unopened bottles. I made a drink menu with a description of the drinks, ingredients, spirits (origin, ratings, flavor profile) and put the 10 page menu in a leather bound restaurant menu cover. I made 10 of these menus so that people could browse them while in line at the open bar. When the reception was winding down and the bar was closing, the kids started grabbing full unopened bottles of liquor and running out to the bus that was taking them to their hotel. I was hammered and was unaware of the goings on. My wife and other sober adults were trying to stop the crime of the century. She came over and informed me of the heist. I laughed. I would expect nothing less. I did manage to save a few of the choice bottles for myself.
  10. Pulling this one back out. YGIFS enjoyed this one. Noem puppy.MOV
  11. Ah yes superman. That great American hero. The child who was immigrated into the US from not just the arctic north but another planet. An actual illegal alien. The child who grew up in the midwest only to become a member of the fake news media. The man who identified as a regular joe but was actually a dangerous criminal capable of mass destruction and reversing time. Reversing time? Sounds like global financial fraud. The irony is palpable.
  12. They probably would’ve attempted an exorcism
  13. As a teenager, my mom and her mother forced my older sister and me to attend a winter wedding at a community church in OKC. When we were told our sunday would be spent at said church, my sister and I grew angry. We did not know these distant relatives and had no interest in their wedding. Did I mention the wedding was to take place during the super bowl? Yeah. They wanted to ruin a great American holiday. Upon further questioning about what kind of heretics would do such a thing, my sister became convinced we were attending a cult wedding. My grandmother countered by saying that they couldn’t possibly be a cult; the couple was doing so well financially, they weee honeymooning in Switzerland. As we suffered through the wedding ceremony, we found that a) we had to sit through a sermon b) they were going on a mission to switzerland c) they passed around a collection plate during the ceremony to help fund the mission The ceremony was a bore. No music. No alcohol. I missed the entire super bowl. That was the day I began losing my religion.
  14. Fuck anyone who votes for this piece of shit party.
  15. Idaho obgyn problems JAMA study results are fake news. Statistics and math is woke. All is good in potato land.
  16. Perhaps they, like johnson’s son, have been monitoring his porn intake.

  18. I think the problem is that fucking idiots vote for a carnival barker doing a wrestling shtick while the fauxnews propaganda machine demonizes the other side that isn’t even aware they’re in the wrestling match. If this is where we are as a democracy, it’s over. Entertainment over sound government.
  19. Seriously, how fucking stupid do you have to be to be a small business owner who sources raw materials and equipment from outside the US and not realize the tariff king is going to impose tariffs that affect you? Do these dumbfucks use an intermediary importer/exporter that is US based and think all the stuff comes from them? Have these dipshits thought to ask the intermediary where they source their stuff? Free market + the tariff king says these dipshits’ businesses die. Good riddance.

  21. We’re considering it. Summers are perfect. Fall is popular with the leaf crowd. The coastal towns do christmas up big. There’s skiing to pass the time in the winter. There’s a ski mountain in Camden and a couple of larger ones more inland.
  22. That is a great park.
