  • Dude I thought America would never elect anyone but old white men but they elected Barack Obama. I'm pretty sure Pete's being gay is less of a problem for the right than a smart black man as the literal president.

  • I was on a plane in the very early 90's, and I remember being about 10 years old and the second the 'smoking okay' sign came on, a WALL of smoke rolled back through the curtains that separated the sections.

  • I just wanted to say we didn't know my father had early onset Alzheimer's, and I never got to say goodbye to him before COVID took him from moderate to severe.

    Knowing is good, because you can make arrangements and your family doesn't find out by you taking the car out and never coming home because you drove out of the city, or got into an accident.

  • First, I just wanted to say I am very proud of you. This is all tough to admit, and I really hope you share your story more. The fact you got yourself out is huge, and could really change things for others suffering from incel-dom.

    Second, "You are not the things you like, the things you like are part of what makes you you. You change, your tastes change, you grow up, don’t think current you is too precious to change." is a pretty great line.

  • I'm starting to think there's a relevant dropout for everything. Every time I watch any of their shows I'm thinking "Oh man, I'd love that as a gif..."

  • So no, he would never quit.

    I'm no expert, but as of this moment I don't think he'll go into the election while trailing. I think he'll make up an excuse to drop out (liberal elite crossing guards, crooked something, the weather is woke, whatever), and from there he'll do his original plan to get more right wingers on board to buy his crap while he dodges lawsuits.

  • When did the norm become leaving computers on? Is it me who's out of touch? No, it's the children who are wrong.

  • I think it's also he can't stand to lose now. He was fine the first time, it was to launch his brand. Now it would be an insult to him, so he'd rather quit than lose.

  • Again, you are embarrassing yourself with comments like that. My left nut dumbass.

    Truly artistic.

  • Getting Needled 24/7

  • Pretty sure their flavour preference is boot polish.

  • The fact that Trump is disrespectful doesn’t excuse anyone else from actually doing the job.

    Seems like that job right now is beating a fascist candidate.

  • then Vance would completely destroy any of the Democrats who the Dem establishment could possibly let run.

    Well...

    In February, during an episode of Steve Bannon’s “War Room” podcast, Vance said that he cared more about the security of the US southern border than the Russian troop build-up near Ukraine. “I gotta be honest with you, I don’t really care what happens to Ukraine one way or another,” Vance said.

    "“Indigenous Peoples’ Day” is a fake holiday created to sow division. Of course Joe Biden is the first president to pay it any attention."

    “I am as pro life as anyone, and I want to save as many babies as possible. This is not about moral legitimacy but political reality.”

    “There are dozens of people who protested on J6 who haven’t even been charged with a crime yet are being mistreated in DC prisons. A friend suggested the below link if you’re able to support them.”

    Vance said that Trump should “fire every single mid-level bureaucrat” in the US government and “replace them with our people.” If the courts attempt to stop this, Vance says, Trump should simply ignore the law. “You stand before the country, like Andrew Jackson did, and say the chief justice has made his ruling, now let him enforce it,” he declares. The President Jackson quote is likely apocryphal, but the history is real. Vance is referring to an 1832 case, Worcester v. Georgia, in which the Supreme Court ruled that the US government needed to respect Native legal rights to land ownership. Jackson ignored the ruling, and continued a policy of allowing whites to take what belonged to Natives. The end result was the ethnic cleansing of about 60,000 Natives — an event we now call the Trail of Tears.

    Yeah, Democrats will sure have a tough time with him...
