  1. Seems like for a few years they published the same magazine but with different covers, dependent on where they were being distributed. But eventually they succumbed to splitting the cover like this. Probably had to do it when sales started dropping.
  2. Same sort that Hitler targeted after WWI to be the base of his Brownshirts. Angry young men who haven't accomplished much with their lives and need someone to blame. They just keep blaming the wrong people because they are too willfully ignorant to actually look at facts. The continued wealth inequality in our country is the chief cause of this unhappiness, along with the marketing teams that push consumerism over all else. It's no win for them when they base their whole worth on the accumulation of material goods and wealth. So, they are setting themselves up to steal from others, right under our fucking noses. They'd gladly loot anyone's home who disagrees with them and then claim the victims were Jews or filthy immigrants. They are just waiting for Trump to give them the green light. But yeah, it's the immigrants coming to take their jobs, their way of life. How do you fight this without some reckoning? Some bloodshed?
  3. Anybody attempted Bodies yet? I'm 3/4 in and though it was a slow start it falls into place. It's like Dark in trying to keep up with the characters.
  4. That is great to hear. Must have had some local money come in, since the gofundme was basically stalled. I hope we get to see some footage of them there
  5. Yeah, I was thinking this too. He was white and they probably thought he was there as some sort of militia to protect Trump if things went sideways. If he would have been anything but white, he'd been dropped long before he got up on that roof.
  6. I would think SS would have some sort of portable radar for drone spotting. Maybe they would remove the target until they ascertained if the threat was truly a threat. That makes the most sense, policy wise.
  7. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/14-reasons-people-are-leaving-texas/ss-BB1oJcRj?ocid=msedgntp&pc=U531&cvid=211bec2ba61a434cb9beea70330045e9&ei=53#image=1 Texans are leaving the state due to: 1. Scorching Summers and Extreme Heat 2. Property Taxes 3. Political Climate 4. Lack of Gun Control 5. Abortion Restrictions 6. Lack of Diversity 7. Education System 8. Natural Disasters 9. Property Insurance Woes 10. Traffic Congestion 11. Job Market Saturation 12. Water Scarcity and Drought Concerns 13. Environmental Concerns and Pollution 14. Social Issues and Inequality (I'd probably shoe in Healthcare somewhere too) Race to be a third world country is in full gallop now. Boomers are leaving America to retire abroad in droves because the U.S. is just too expensive https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/retirement/boomers-are-leaving-america-to-retire-abroad-in-droves-because-the-u-s-is-just-too-expensive/ar-BB1py92d?ocid=msedgntp&pc=U531&cvid=27f387a2d670442f806721884474856b&ei=27 My son said that sounded right. Boomers kept voting for the assholes who fucked up this country, then just leave it because it's too fucked up. Fortunately for them they have enough wealth to make such a move.
  8. If P 2025 isn't loony enough for you, take a look at Agenda 47, it's Trump counterpart: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agenda_47 The more I watch these guys the more they remind me of the Germanic youth who made up the brownshirts. John Oliver did a good piece on this, but then it's longer than 2 minutes, so 'too long, won't watch' On the other hand my young collegiate says his IG and TikTok is blowing up over 2025 and kids are pissed.
  9. What took her so long with all that talent around her?
  10. Really enjoyed this. But then I get into period pieces, finding it a decent way to learn a little about historic eras. And the delivery angle of the story was unique. A win on lots of levels.
  11. I quietly am optimistic about November. The number of Trump endorsees that are losing does not gibe with his supposed popularity. This isn't being pointed out enough. Trump-backed congressional candidates suffered rare losses in Tuesday's primary elections (msn.com)
  12. The 'torture your opponent by climate control game," right? Poor honorable LSU lads littered the field that game with insufferable cramps.
  13. I am thinking he was expressing pleasure in the added misery aggy has from losing Cortez and was hoping for another loss with Ashenbach to whatever, draft, aging out.
  14. You should also charge for ppl to watch and have all that go into OTF. I mean we pay good money for a lot less entertainment.
  15. Once these players learn they'll be under a staff of questionable developmental skills, it will be harder to recruit from HS and the Portal. They won't have enough NIL to make up for that. UT is going through that a bit with the new DL coach not having many skins on the wall to point to. Multiply that by the entire staff, and that's what will end up biting them in the ass. However, once these guys are gone, so is Earley, I would bet.
  16. It will be interesting to see if these players bitching about CC now change their tunes (and how) when their personal contracts come up for negotiation. If the CC era truly is here to stay and the revenue moves into a higher level, you know those players who have "given their all to keep the league going" will want their piece of the expanded pie. And that is fine, but will they give CC her due? Do they recognize that Caitlyn brings something new and fresh to the league that people have been needing, and in turn they try to cultivate more of whatever it is that's driving this groundswell change? Or do they try to get those fans to accept the old W, brushing this off as some flash in the pan?
  17. I wonder what the cutoff date is they have to raise this by. What a thrill to go and represent small town South Texas! You would think some corporate sponsors would help out.
  18. Schloss is going to build a helluva coaching tree here. Same here, but I'm also thrilled Galvan is returning. That kid has scrapper and leader in his aura.
  19. He failed to piss this Horn fan off. By the lack of responses here, seems he didn't fare too well in that quest. The lack of self-awareness grows more wearisome.
  20. Joey Freshwater seems to be taking up the mantle from Leach. And he's doing a great job so far.
  21. Biden. Tell him you fired his ass!!
  22. I contend that Bohls had the story for several weeks and wanted to break it, but CDC told AAS to hold off. Bohls then took it to the Chronicle which leans more aggy and used it to ink a contract with them. If Z prick or any other Chronicle contributor had broke it, it wouldn't have gotten the attention that it did coming from Bohls. Schloss was probably more upset about it being leaked than the actual question. They have more than enough grackles to suffice. Not crows, but close enough.
  23. I hope CDC figures out some way to feed Bohls some false shit that he'd be too gullible not to break. I anticipate a Texas Hate tell all coming out by Bohls. That's what he'll use to retire on since the 12th men will all swallow that shit hook line and sinker
  24. I think from here forward, A&M should be our little bother, not little bRother.
  25. The DNC played a very big part in tapping Allred. It wasn't so much state leadership. Roland was all over the state leading up to the primary. He logged like 8-10k miles in those last two months. I fully anticipated it would be a run off between he and Allred. Allred blew his doors off without even trying, which was truly surprising since Allred had no presence in the field. He blames that on Congress being in session and there's some logic to that. But since they got out of session, he's been AWOL as well. I think the DNC and Allred are trying to appeal to those Rs and independents who just won't pull a lever for a "radical progressive" over Cruz. They are looking for that crossover vote and not going for the progressive one that Roland appealed to. And with the D's dismal turnout record in the past decade, DNC seems to be putting its money behind someone that doesn't come off as this great threat to go in and start demanding a bunch of change. This is why he does a lot of preaching about working across the aisle and bi-partisanship. Hoping to draw that cross-over vote. That's the only explanation I can come up with. There are those who seem to think he sounds at times like Eric Johnson.
