Just in time for a Democratic POTUS to take over and get blamed for everything, even as they manage to turn things around later in their term and get the economy growing again after the GOP fucked it up. Same as always.

Elon isn't capable of feeling empathy for anyone except himself, imo. His main complaint about this new budget is that it doesn't cut enough, so he wanted even more people to lose their jobs and welfare benefits, not less. He's just pissed because he went from being (at least in his own mind)...

Honestly, that reads like an Onion headline.

IMO, there was no way this bill wasn't going to eventually pass. Congressional Republicans are totally spineless when it comes to Dear Leader, and they're all more afraid of getting primaried by some loon even further to the right than they are than they are of facing a Democratic opponent in...

They believe - bless their extremely gullible little hearts and minds - that because the government now belongs to Trump, it also belongs to them as well, and they fully approve of people and groups they don't like having no say at all in the government or public policy. Since liberals are evil...

I loathe Trump as much as anyone, but it would be most fitting if the monster Musk created - DOGE - was turned loose on Musk's corporate subsidies and sweetheart deals and cut most or all of them to the bone. It would be a perfect FAFO moment for Elon, who deserves such a moment as much as...

Yep. Especially the SEC connections and experience in building sponsorships, marketing, contracts in pro sports, etc. The future of college sports lies in it becoming a professional league with all that entails - corporate sponsors, major marketing and ad campaigns, signing paid players, etc. I...

It's all subjective, but I've never liked Cook Out shakes, I just don't like the ice cream they use. I do like a creamier, smoother shake.

There's a Bojangles near us that recently switched to using an automated (AI?) voice program to take orders at the drive thru instead of a person. They had two windows at the drive thru but the first one is never open anymore, you now just pay at the other window if you're not using an app. I...

I don't eat at fast food burger/hot dog places much anymore, as much for my health in my aging years as the price, but when I do I prefer Dairi-O's to Cookout. I like the food better (especially their hot dogs) and their milkshakes a whole lot more, although they don't have the variety of...

Oh yeah. If a Democrat wins in 2028 then both the GOP and news media will suddenly be all up in arms about our "runaway" budget deficit and demand that Democrats cut spending and so on.

Because nothing says you're a Marxist like favoring taking down a statue honoring soldiers who fought to break up the nation and preserve slavery and killed hundreds of thousands of U.S. soldiers defending the Constitution and the Union. And I'm sure that taking down that statue will...

Same here. I've never been a paid IC subscriber, but I did post sometimes on the free basketball and football boards, and a good deal more on the old ZZL and ZZLP. Over the years I gradually posted less and less on the free sports boards as they turned into cesspools of negativity, attacks on...

Schumer: "Is Jim Hunt still living? He's 88? Oh hell, he's still a spring chicken! They love them some Jim Hunt down there! Even though he hasn't been governor in a quarter-century let's get that man the nomination right now. What, there's some guy named Jeff Jackson who is interested? I've...

In his case "the church" will likely turn out to be whatever scam or bogus products or services he can offer to the rubes who are dumb enough to listen to his show and actually believe what he's saying. I suspect that Mr. Robinson is a full member of the Gospel of Wealth branch of American...
