Indeed!
Agreed the bull might well be the first casualty, but with those horns and the size of that guy, someone else would probably bite it too. Like the loon driving him around.
Maybe he has less trouble with tailgaters.
Today I learned that there are a bunch of people who think that Helen Keller wasn’t real or some kind of fraud. Maybe this was a common thing a few years ago, but it does make me freshly despair for humanity. “ “Suspicion stalks fame; incredulity stalks great fame,” Cynthia Ozick
A story about it here: Helen Keller conspiracy: Why TikTok is questioning the famous writer and activist.
They do this kind of stuff because they can’t believe that anyone could have that kind of dedication to a person in need. “Why would a person help someone in need?”
Drives me nuts, because these idiots are in need. And these dumb fucks are voting against themselves.
I’ve lost all my sympathy for these morons. They try to hurt others, even if it will drag them down as well. They vote against anything that will raise all boats, because it will raise the other boats as well.
f’em.
Famously described by an Internet commenter at Balloon Juice named Davis X. Machina thus:
“The salient fact of American politics is that there are fifty to seventy million voters each of whom will volunteer to live, with his family, in a cardboard box under an overpass, and cook sparrows on an old curtain rod, if someone would only guarantee that the black, gay, Hispanic, liberal, whatever, in the next box over doesn’t even have a curtain rod, or a sparrow to put on it.”
Proud Boy claims ‘Trump won’ after sobbing for mercy and receiving 10-year sentence: reports
Proud Boy Dominic Pezzola sobbed in a Washington, D.C., courtroom on Friday, as he asked a federal judge for leniency in his Jan. 6 sentence and vowed to stay out of politics in the future.
However, after receiving a 10-year prison sentence, Pezzola reportedly raised his fist and shouted, “Trump won,” as he left the courtroom, according to WUSA.
So he promised to stay out of politics, got a light sentence, then shouted a political statement. ISTM the judge should’ve had his butt brought back to hear his corrected sentence.
We have video evidence of her fraud.
A couple used an excavator to knock a hole in a section of the Great Wall. Apparently they wanted a shortcut.
Story here: https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/04/china/china-great-wall-damage-excavator-intl/index.html
This is China–they are going to be stood up against a great wall. Briefly.
The barbarians!!!
They did their Mongolian forebears proud.
I thought China had moved to lethal injection. Still barbaric. Also, here is an article from back in 2013 discussing the theft of stones from the Great Wall. Essentially this couple decided to go big.
Footballer Jordan Henderson is “really hurt” by criticism over his move to Saudi Arabia because he’s an ally to LGBTQ+ communities. A quote: "Talking about what persuaded him to head to Saudi Arabia, Henderson said he was attracted by the prospect of trying to grow the game he loves in another country and said “nothing’s going to change” by criticising another country from afar while burying “our heads in the sand”.
I’m sure it was for the love of the game and not any financial considerations . And there’s a reason many folks don’t criticize the country while they’re in it, Jordan. If he really believes all of this and it really isn’t money, then he’s an idiot.
Stupid MFer who yelled at a German tennis player during the US Open is escorted to the exit.
“He started singing the anthem of Hitler that was back in the day,” he said. “It was ‘Deutschland über alles’ and it was a bit too much.”
While I applaud removing the offender, I would have thought the “most famous hitler phrase” was “arbeit macht frei”, which I find way more offensive. But I doubt a stupid American could pronounciate it.
Mrs Cad has said that if she is dying with no hope of a cure, this is how she plans on going out.
Sure, just leave a mess for someone else to clean up. Better off climbing Everest.No one is going to bring a body back from there.
I told her to aim for a mule.
Y’know, I could respect someone who just said “I don’t agree with all of their policies, but they’re paying me really well”. One can do business with someone one disagrees with (and, in fact, most of us do business with Saudi Arabia). Just be honest about it. If you feel like you must, then say you want to earn a lot of money for the benefit of your family.
