  1. Same for South Texas. But it was in the 5th grade the girls got cloistered in a room for an afternoon of period talk. Boys never got anything. I got a rudimentary idea of the inner female plumbing from the instruction sheet I pilfered from a box of Tampax. Probably wanked over it too. About that time Susan S. and I were riding our bikes toward home and she asked me what "fucking" meant. I told her in very elementary terms and she blushed hard and rode away crying. That was sex education in our town.
  2. At least in Texas one of the biggest stumbling blocks for the Dems to carry this banner better is the Catholic church. Between gender and abortion issues, its a hard needle to thread.
  3. A) Then grooming applies to Amway and cults like Q. I've lost great friends because I chose not to sell Amway under them. And we all know what Q is like. B) There is as much if not more abuse being foisted on these kids by parents who are too scared of what their own peers think to stand up for their kids until it's too late. Go watch Joe Bell.
  4. Add to that that kids come into their sexuality at different ages. I know I was pretty curious well before most of the kids in my class. I mean I got smacks for looking sticking my head under the dress of my kindergarten teacher because the opportunity arose. But then I was weird, since I never really was part of that 'he man woman hater" club that was made popular by the Lil' Rascals and REO Speedwagon. So really, what is the problem with this? That the world won't repopulate if everyone goes same sex? Or is it an issue that someone's lineage might dry up if their kids don't procreate and pass on the family name? Helluva a thing to worry about while we slowly make our planet more and more inhospitable.
  5. You are all right. I still think her biggest mistake was underestimating Trump's chances. Which were pretty shitty up until Comey pulled out the emails again at the last moment.
  6. Don't ever doubt that this isn't about taking control of our schools and indoctrination. The DeVos types making money off of private schools that teach people to vote against their best interests, repeatedly. Dumb question amnesty here, please. But some people are naturally Bi-sexual or pansexual right? So they can choose to engage in relationships with members of differing genders. So for some is it a choice? I'm old, all this gender talk is confusing, but I am trying. They might know better if we actually taught them something about sex and relationships, instead of leaving it up to religious leaders who make a good deal of their income off of counseling people over guilt. And guilt over sex and gender is the easiest sell. Who knows? Those educated kids might grow up to be better parents and eventually all this recedes. Imagine that, teaching people more about themselves, their interrelations with others, acceptance and parenting...instead of how to be a good cog in the capitalistic machine?
  7. Plus it wasn't like Trump was a shoo in for winning in 2016. She would have had to resign in the beginning of Obama's 2nd term to have a chance to be replaced by his choice because of McConnell. Most likely she put her money on Hillary winning.
  8. Does Galindo stand 3 feet away from the mike and yell at it all the time? For those of us older fans we've gone from "Get that idiot off the goalpost." to "Tell us about the Moody Center....again!" From intelligent dry wit to knob slobbering inanity. Did anyone else catch Griff talking about Card's throwing motion leading to flatter arcs on the deep balls, not giving the receivers that cushion to run under? Something about always ending up on his tiptoes at the end of those long throws. Griff had said Sark had seen this and pointed it out at some point.
  9. BM did himself in with all his self promotion. Much like Johnny Football. It started in high school for both of them. Neither one could live up to the hype and the price of hubris was paid. People probably would have forgiven either of them a bad year or two but we were all tired of their shit by the time they even took the field in Cleveland. Just products of sensationalistic journalism.
  10. I'm frankly surprised Trump wasn't double registered in at least NY and FL.
  11. Just like immigration and border issues. All for flash and pop.
  12. I enjoyed Jim's Big Burger. It's neat how Victoria has held on to it's independent burger joints.
  13. Trump has a LOT of dirt on all these fuckers. Putin gave it to him.
  14. There is no counter to Fox, OAN and whoever else is pushing that GOP schlock, nationally, statewide or locally. And Trump and his crusade to discredit MSM has done its damage too. The D's can have the best message ever, but getting it delivered consistently is difficult. Because years ago when the indoctrination started with Fox, Rush, etc., the Dems felt that these people were fringe and the voters would see through their schtick. But it just grew and now it's near insurmountable.
  15. I don't think the response was what he thought it was going to be.
  16. https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2022/04/13/five-things-to-know-today-about-the-supply-chain-crisis-at-the-us-mexico-border/?utm_source=pushly At least some media is trying to get the facts out. Hopefully more jump on the bandwagon.
  17. I'm so tired of this shit where Biden is getting blamed for all this when a good deal started due to poor management of Covid by Trump. It's like a fucking smash and grab and we as consumers are paying for it and Biden shoulders the blame. I went in for my annual eye exam last week. One year ago it cost $90. This year they did the exact same tests, took the same amount of time. $145. That's a 60% increase in one year. No consumables used, except maybe the tissue used to clean the chin rest. And I am pretty sure that extra money isn't being passed through to his employees in substantial raises of 30% or more. Same for big oil doing all these stock buybacks. But hey...let's go brandon, right?
  18. Not sure to put this here or the graft thread. It's a helluva read.
  19. She's out on bond already. I feel for her, because her life and the lives of her family is about to be in the middle of a shitstorm. I don't think she did this as a publicity stunt, but I guess we will find out. I just hope that the fucker who knocked her up without b/c gets called out too.
  20. Abbott figures if he has to clear the prison system of all the pot cases, then he's got a lot of vacancies to fill. Viola! 2 birds with one stone. Or is it 3?
  21. I gave up on them after they didn't raze Baylor to the ground.
  22. I'm headed to Houston for the College Dems' convention with Beto as a keynote spkr. What are the odds this comes up?
  23. Tragic. What a way to have to end such a full life. The pride of Freer. I remember riding the elevator in Jester with him several times. Always a smile on his face.
  24. I bet they know where those missing phone logs from 1/6 are though. Probably have a recording of every call.
