The guy is a convicted felon, and I’ve seen a shockingly high number of people wearing t-shirts outright acknowledging that fact.

For the upper tier of the socioeconomic scale, they only care about money and power which we had shifted in that direction. For the lower half, he continues to convince them all their problems are because of minorities, immigrants, women, poor, or any other marginalized group

Because it nurtured the racism in a LOT of people bringing it out in the open…which led to the rise often hat orange turd in the first place, who went from a reality tv star that nobody gave half a fuck about to spewing anti-Obama shit left and right solely based on race and because he got his fee-fees hurt at a WH correspondents dinner. Large parts of the repub base are still reeling in from “black president” 16 years ago that they can’t fathom “black woman president”. Sadly there are a lot of em, and they vote

Man am I glad I killed my FB back In 2012 when it was mostly pictures of peoples babies and people acting like hating Obama was a personality trait

Wrapping paper and bows/ribbons. THey’re just gonna get torn up anyway, no reason to spent a ton of money to make it fancy

2 of my cousins (brother and sister) are 2 very opposite people. The older brother has been a career fuck-up since grade school; always getting in trouble, failing, not caring, running with the wrong crowds, knocked up a girl when they were 16, got kicked out of 1 school and barely graduated. He’s never held a job more than 6 months, if that, each job is minimum wage with minimal skills, been kicked out of the house a few times, has a sordid legal history, dated some questionable women, and eventually got into a relationship with a single mom of 3 kids who inherited 6-figures when her dad died and dude thought he was on easy street from that point forward…until 6 months later when he blew threw half the money and she kicked him out to where he’s now crashing in a camper working a lawn job.

His sister, honor student in HS, went to college, got a degree but had difficulty finding a job in graphic design that wasn’t freelance. Seeing the 27 2nd chances her enabler-parents afforded her brother…she stopped caring and moved back in with the parents bouncing from middling job to middling job. He’s in his mid-30s and she’s in her upper 20’s

I wish I still had my writeup on that last season, and especially the episode How Your Mother Met Me, which I think was a genuinely terrible episode that removed all depth from the Mother, and the only reason I think it got any praise was because of the ukalele rendition of La Vie En Rose at the end.

But yes, that entire season undid 8 years of character development for most of the characters, spent the entire season building up to the Barney & Robins wedding, which it then immediately undid, spent an entire season overdeveloping Barney to being a genuinely good person whose whole persona was a simple act of benevolent revenge…only to undo it and have him revert back to being a POS womanizer (until he knocks up some lady), gives us this big buildup for Tracy only to mention in passing that she died…like seriously it was about 7 seconds, and show Ted literally and figuratively letting go of Robin once and for all…only for him be like "oh yeah if was you i loved all along at the end.

I ran the numbers, have you considered dying young?

And of course their “home security” placard in the landscaping says “Fuck around and find out”.

Looks like a house of well adjusted mentally stable people \s

This looks like the kinda house that runs the lawn mower and leaf blower at 8am on weekends

If you can afford this…

…Whenever you’re at the store and make a debit card purchase with the option for cash back, get some back. $5, $10, $20…whatever. And put this into a rainy-day fund. You never know when you might need some quick cash or it’d be the make-or-break for a quick splurge.

Granted, I learned of this method from a friend of the family who used this method to hide money from her husband so take it with a grain of salt.

Cris Collinsworth openly admitted to it

Just ask Steven Tyler

Plus it was easier to cover up back then.

Big Trouble in Little China

The problem was the story itself was so self-contained any sequel they tried would have clearly been nothing but a huge cash grab.

But they supposedly are making a sequel, starring The Rock 🫤

There were plans, with the daughter joining the family business.

FUBAR on Netflix isn’t terrible since it plays some of the same keys as True Lies, and it got renewed for a second season…but it’s painfully obvious that Arnold is too old for this stuff anymore.

They tried a TV reboot adaptation of True Lies. It was baaad

The need to always seem manly around other men…in particular the choice of music. Ride in the car with certain people, they always have to be blasting hard rock or rap, or hard country depending on your location.

Meanwhile I’m over here enjoying switching between pop, rock, new wave, alt and even my playlist of exclusively Elton John, Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel and Billy Joel

2 former coworkers of mine who always the smartest person they know. One of em lives alone and you can tell he’s never lost an argument (with himself in his head) and anytime he tries to back up his opinion it’s always the same “it’s dumb, it’s stupid, it doesn’t make sense it’s not LoGiCaL”. But anytime you try to chime in…he talks over you.

The other is one of those “I read both sides of the story so I know far far more than you”…who was a one of those reddit knowitalls.

For a chance, no guarantee they actually score

I used Textra for years across maybe 4 phones. The customization is great, but it started randomly dropping ringtones on my Pixel 7 Pro…it’s the P7P that sucks ass, not Textra.

I eventually quit Textra because it doesn’t support RCS

I commend vote.org for doing everything they can to get people registered, especially in areas where one side does everything possible to make the voting process as difficult as functionally possible…

…but be warned you will be drowning in emails from vote.org.
