#interiordesignerproblems

It comes from a French word that has a vowel sound halfway between the two, so whichever one she preferred, she still sounded like a Hillbilly to us high-falutin folk.

Maybe bring that up if you're bored and she won't stop calling you.

If only we had listened to God in April 1906 when San Francisco was nearly flattened by a 7.9 earthquake, killing thousands.  Dammit.  He clearly is trying to remind us.

Maybe it means the end times are upon us, Marge.  So, you best get your cracker ass in good with the Jews and get you some space lasers.

Goddamn crazy cooze.

In our astounding drift into facism, I've wondered how "we" can forget the last round of this global inclination.

I think the part of "we" who are astounded were the children of the WW2 generation so that story got told often. The attitude towards Nazism and military imperialism was transferred gut to gut through TV shows, movies, books, and recollection. I fought the war against the Germans, Japanese, and Comanches across the suburban yards of Houston. I died many time but always prevailed.

The other part of "we" view that time like we view WW1. It's interesting but increasingly vague. One has to look for it to learn about it.

Of course, I'm talking about people like the woman in Maine. She says Nazi and thinks of today's Nazis. American Nazis. Those of us who have the gut feeling about Nazis envision a supremely racist authoritarian rule that not only murdered millions of Jews and other non-Aryans but starved and worked them to death. The Gestapo and SS are entities whose names chill us.

Not the same for her and others who didn't grow up as most of us did. Obvious lessons fade. Nazis are handsome white guys with torches who care deeply for the ideal white American dream. 

Forget it, Jake. It's Idiot World.

Aside from the obvious disturbing fact that it's taking place on our soil during our lifetimes, it doesn't differ that much from every other time it's been effectively attempted/implemented.  Except for the most jarring fact of all.  So many attempts in human history.  They were, almost to a totality, based on the concept that "You have been wronged.  But you are the more intelligent people."  And one man came along at the right time and convinced people, "It's not because you are uneducated that you are here...it's because the educated put you this station in life."  The Three Reichs achieved power by convincing people they were the smarter ones, it was the other people that were of lower intelligence.  It lifted people up and made them capable of cruelty.  Later on, an Orange Man came along and came up with an even better idea.  "The educated think they are better than you and if you support me, I'll make sure you feel smarter about yourself."  He turned the whole thing on it's head.  "You are actually better than them precisely because of your lack of intelligence and education, not the usual way around throughout history."  I'm sure it's been successfully done at other points in history, but never, ever on this scale in such a prominent nation.  This trick will be studied by our grandchildren.  And even they won't figure out how it happened.

So the tectonic plates on the Eastern Seaboard and eclipse that's been on the books for centuries by astronomers...are controlled by Joe Biden?  The guy that's so incompetent and senile he manages to control the movement of the Earth's crust and how the sun and moon work in conjunction when Artemis and Hyperion have their days off?  And this is happening now?  With a member of Congress?

My aunt and uncle are in their early 60s and are successful business owners in Richmond VA.  I love them and hanging out with them.  They are fun, my cousins (their kids) are fun and it's always a blast to see them.  But they fell hook line and sinker for the drag queens and pedos in schools bit that Youngkin and others have been selling.  Even though they don't have kids in school anymore.  Even though they aren't particularly religious.  They are relatively good natured about it when I give them shit.  For instance, every time they say the word globalist, they have to drink.

Good that your relatives aren't closed minded enough to indoctrinate others in a with us or against us mentality.  Critical thinking is under attack. 

Used to see trans and drag queens hooking it on Friday and Saturday nights along Broad Street in Richmond.  It's not like they bother anybody--only the bigots mess with them.  The people that really care want to legislate morality in an attempt to hide their self inflicted shame.  The only rule should be to only involve consenting adults.

They were saying “décor,” and that’s how you say it.

Bro.... Do you think she thinks anything?

The political forums are very interesting. 

Most elected officials aren't saying what they think (assuming they think) or believe. They're saying what they think will get them re-elected.

I've been trying to tell y'all this since the HF days. There are so few politicians that care about us, if any. They become millionaires 'serving' the greater good. 

I'm hoping against all hope that I'm wrong, but I don't think I am. History shows this country will become a mostly homogeneous community of non-thinkers. Which great society has not?

So the question becomes, will this country become a group of accepting non-thinkers?

Considering the primary drivers of the community over the history of this country (profit, division, war) it doesn't look good.

I want to be wrong.

I hope football can save us.

So she became a Qanon adherent 3 years before running for any political office to lay the groundwork for a future run, but she never really believed in it?

Instead, we dammed up Hetch Hetchy Valley, one of the most beautiful places in the Sierra. I think that may have been the opposite of god’s intention for that message.

She's nothing new. Back when I had a buzz-cut from OCS, randos would see me in civilian dress and assume I was a skinhead. They'd talk, oh how they'd talk.

tldr/ your local locksmith thinks Hitler had no choice. Get a buzzcut, he'll tell you about it.

I shaved my head from 18-38. Never once had a run in with anyone telling me about how they agreed with the Nazis.

I had a plumber like that.  While I don't have a buzzcut, he became comfortable enough to tell me about how the Holocaust was faked and "the blacks" were taking over the country.  Seemed like a nice guy before that.  Great plumber.  I thought about kicking him out but he had my sink in pieces.  Then I pondered the odds of getting a non racist plumber in Arkansas and then I let it go.

Yeah, in my case, something about me makes people of all sorts vomit forth their deepest thoughts. Sometimes benign, sometimes not. Maybe I could have been a priest, if we're talking some kind of Liam Neeson adventure priest who has a grown girlfriend and never diddles kids.

Full Nazi is rare. More likely it's just some talk radio drivel, and it's tedious, but you just need your car fixed.

I'm gonna have to take exception to the Chili's shot.  The chicken crispers are delicious.  

 

I haven't been in a Chili's in probably 20 years.  Do they still have the southwestern egg rolls?  Because if they do, I'm gonna have to roll up and get me some.

If a genie gave me a box that magically produced Chili's chips, salsa, and SW eggrolls, I would use a wish to grant him his freedom.
