12 days agoTrump plays “worker” for a few minutes. McDonald’s gets e coli. Coincidence? (Best read in the smarmy voice of Tucker Carlson or Jesse Waters.)

Would someone please give me the ELI5 on why Republicans want to destroy Social Security? Do they want to privatize it by making everyone put money into a 401K that is controlled by Wall Street money managers, who then skim their share? Are they STILL pissed about Roosevelt? Are rich Republicans pissed that poor people might not have to eat cat food in their old age? Is it that the foundational idea is that we all contribute…and that’s COMMUNISM??? I just don’t understand their motivation.
22·16 days agoSure, the new trucks look like a Dollar Store version of the Beluga cargo plane but I don’t care. They don’t require 57 mirrors, have backup cameras, are much more fuel efficient, have A/C, the list goes on! Even the new Metris is a million times better than any LLV or FFV simply for the lack of exhaust you end up breathing.
So very Gestapo of him.
Let’s leave that up to the states.

He’s been doing this since the beginning. Anyone who has been around a 12 year old should be able to see this.
Go back to when he was asked about his favorite book/part/quote from the Bible. He sounds like a middle schooler who is trying to dance around how he didn’t read anything for the book report.
The ability of half the country to willfully not see this (or just ignore it 'cuz librals are the devil!) astounds me.
7·2 months agoHim and Jamie Fucking Diamond (CEO of JP Morgan-Chase) who always seems to get quoted as some sage of the economy when in reality he is seeking media attention to push a market or stock a certain way that benefits him or those like him.
This is a part of the plan to delegitimize and undermine any election result that doesn’t go their way. “The election results are fake. We’ve been telling you for months that the polls are crooked so the election must have been crooked.”
Is this Don’s way of getting with the winning team; by campaigning for her? What a way to turn off the youts, offer free health care. Brilliant!
I’m a carrier for the US Postal Service. Yes, people actually buy stuff off of Temu. You can always tell it’s from Temu because it looks like a ball of tape. Large ball, small ball…doesn’t matter…it’s Temu.
OK, I’ll be the first to say it this time. While the results of this poll warm my heart, the fact remains that the only poll that matters is on election day! Make sure and vote.
Be sure and VOTE!
She’s a national treasure! (And I hear she’s a pretty good gymnast too.)
She didn’t have to comment (actually she DID since the orange shit stained bully always requires a response during this campaign season), she could have just laid low, reveled in her Olympic wins, thanked GAWD and told the media her next move was she was going to Disneyland.
Instead, she bravely steps in and sarcastically jabs him on the nose knowing full well that the greatest insult to that privileged failure of a human is sass from an uppity negro. An actual WINNER, no less! Further punctuating that he’s a loser.
2·5 months agoAs I walked out one evening by W.H. Auden
https://poets.org/poem/i-walked-out-one-evening
Or for the lazy who want to hear the poet himself read it:
The why is that long ago, when I was in college in Maine, my girlfriend’s English step-dad read it to his wife after attempting to prove he was American by driving their VW Jetta around the garden in the snow. Alcohol was involved and when everyone assembled finally convinced Tony to come back inside, an English teacher friend compelled him to read a poem as proof that he had come to terms with the car stuck in the snow out back. A life-long fan of Auden he chose As I Walked Out One Evening. As it opens, the imagery and fantastic feats of love are obviously spoken by a young man, but “time coughs when you would kiss” signalling that “time will have his fancy, tomorrow or today.” You can break down what it means to you but the undeniably great lines I continue to quote on a weekly basis, albeit in my head so as not to annoy others. As I get older I stare in the basin and wonder what I’ve missed, but I also know that I will love my best friend, and wife 'till the salmon sing in the street.
From what I have read, conditions of his release from the other trials include not committing ANY crime. Criminal contempt triggers this and Judge Chutkin is the most likely to jail him. Now…odds on that ACTUALLY happening…
Donny Broke - A donnybrook comes from Irish meaning a public quarrel or dispute.
Oh no! Now where are people going to go to get their Disneyfied understanding of the most translated and published book in history?
But more to the point, what is the NEXT religious-themed grift coming round the mountain?
Sheesh, I’d think less of Bourdain if he DIDN’T say that! Good riddance to bad rubbish. Kissenger can kiss my ass!
I guess he finally go the message that God doesn’t want him to be President. God seems to want Trump.
Or maybe…just maybe…God doesn’t have anything to do with it.
I have a song I sing whenever I see a Cybertruck. It’s sung in a low, gravelly, MANLY voice. The lyrics go like this:
Cybertruck! I’m a douchbag with too much mon-eey. Cyberbruck! I’m a fan-boy making bad decisions! My mon-eey makes me cool. Look at me compensating! etc…etc
Does anyone remember how, back in the early 2000s, some people would take picture of their hand flipping off a Hummer they saw on the street? I’m getting a similar vibe.
