One can hope. It'd mean a better life for him, in any case. Or, at least, so says every available reeeeeee-tastic stat.

Hm... maybe more like 60 years later. But, you might be right.

Agreed. Every time I've ever seen her in a part, she's just been a mopey, gloomy little shit nobody would want to be around for more than five seconds. The sort of person who distance yourself from while waiting for your order at a coffee shop because there's visible rain clouds emanating from their head. I did the pronouns wrong, but I can't be bothered even for the memes...

Lol. A video hosting site banning content for political reasons? Say it ain't so.

When the microscope was first invented, papers in England published drawings of what was seen under the microscope in a droplet of water taken from a freshly-brewed cup of tea (Earl Gray, hot... I assume). The image showed a whole slew of benign micro-organisms.

There was a mass panic.

People who had been drinking tea and, presumably, ingesting exactly those organisms their entire lives lost their minds. There was even talk of government action at the time. To what possible effect? I have no idea. But there was talk. There's a great deal of work done in sanitation which has lifted humanity up, it's true. But it breeds a kind of hypochondria that is as pathetic as it is useless.

This is all to say: Fuck Karen. And not in the fun way.

I'm gonna go ahead and start blaming all women for chicks who drown their kids. You know, since we're blaming people for shit that's not their fault.

You know that saying, "You are what you eat"?

I wanna know how many ice cream cones you have to eat to actually start looking like one. I mean, I'm a fat bastard, but...

In all honesty, though, I want to know what she thinks she looks like.

Mike Rowe of "Dirty Jobs" tells a story on occasion about the 2016 election primaries. He had a long-planned event to raise money for his Mike Rowe Works Foundation scholarship fund (which gives funding for trades education so long as the recipient signs a pledge to work hard and not blame others for failure, etc.) and the people running the debates basically stole his venue from him at the last minute. So, he confronted them about it publicly and asked all the candidates (at this point, it was mostly just Hillary, Bernie, and Trump) to donate something to the foundation by way of an apology so that he could auction the items and make up some of the losses. Hillary and Bernie didn't respond. But the next morning, Trump had a courier deliver a signed Trump Tower bathrobe to the foundation's door. He managed to auction it for, I think, $18,000.

For me, that was the moment where I realized how real Trump was and how fake Bernie was. Everybody knows Hillary was a smoldering dumpster fire from the start, so that didn't surprise me. Probably should have realized Bernie was trash before that, but I was a college idiot at the time, so...

Nobody can convince me this wasn't a based teacher looking to do the trapped-in-a-woke-school equivalent of quitting via a dump on the boss's desk.

You know a decision is absolute horseshit when the oldest member of the court doesn't even bother citing legal precedents in his dissent. This is the Supreme Court equivalent of calling the other members idiots.

My old, based, and technologically savvy economics professor (a man who could economically Red Pill anyone in 30 minutes or less) laughed when I told him about this article I saw where some grad brainlet at a major university was calling for Greenland (yes, the entire island...) to be covered in some kind of nano-material cloth to keep the ice there from melting. Next class, he showed up with a newspaper clipping from 1979, an article by another grad brainlet who had the bright idea to cover all of Greenland (...) with carbon dust ("Ironic, isn't it?") to keep the ice from melting. The author's pitch? "If we don't do this now, New York City will be under water by 1995..."

My professor assured us it was one of numerous such articles he had collected from his morning papers since the mid-1960s all making similar claims about various deadlines and offering Green New Deal-tier Bond villain plans for how to remedy the situation.

The climate changes. Its been changing for millions of years. But this shit? It's the climate equivalent of an Al Sharpton sermon -- free political brownie points off an unsolvable problem which will be eternally politically relevant. And that always means power and money. Plain and simple. This is why I don't trust charities.

On the topic of precinct chairs:

When I was working for Bernie in 2016 (yes, I know, I'm sorry -- was in college at the time and was drinking the Cool-Aid; been making it up by busting my hump for Trump ever since) there were just over 1,000 precinct chairmanships in Houston, Texas where I live. Less than half were occupied at the time, most of the chairs who were there were running unopposed, and nobody was even attempting to fill the open seats. There were some fairly consequential decisions made by the people in those seats, including appointments and policy issues.

The numbers have shifted since then, of course, but it's still generally true that there's very slim competition for the precinct chairs. They're so desperate to fill those seats that there don't seem to be many questions asked. If we can turn the precinct chairs into a real fight, I'd say there could only be a positive outcome. It would attract attention to the issue in general (because, let's face it, nobody pays attention to politics when they're a little too local) and it's a good place to start hitting the GOP scum hard. With numbers, the precinct chairs can influence a lot of shit.

Maybe we can turn it into a title and he can just defend it every few months as the champ. Every time he wins, he bumps his numbers, the idiots pushing the thing torpedo theirs, and we will have infinite ammo to make these people look like complete fools (I mean... in addition to the imperial arsenal they already supply us with...)

Probably true, though. Hollywood, Washington, and swamp creatures throughout the Dem-o-sphere have to add up to 10% somehow.

Still live in Houston and agreed. Yet another great city destroyed by Deep State bullshit. I'd say "Democrat bullshit" but I'm sure recent events have educated us all on how... incomplete that statement is. Weak-ass Republicans.

I've been thinking about Fredericksburg. "Home of the Biedermann"

I've lived in Houston my whole life. And secessionists have always been bumper-sticker warriors who were mostly mocked... until now. I've been talking to some friends and even normies are like, "If that referendum comes up, I'm voting to leave. Fuck this shit."

Quite a few of them are Democrats. They hate the steal more than they hate Trump. Keep in mind, Houston, Dallas, and Austin are as blue as you get in Texas.
