So maybe JD Vance has a secret plan to gain Trump's trust, become VP, kill Trump, take over, pardon himself, and resign from office as America's greatest hero.

You know, there's some stuff I've "liked" in the past that if I really cared I might go back and "un-like" on some platforms. Anything from JK Rowling, for example. (Long before she went off the TERF deep end, back when she was still a somewhat decent human being, and I liked Harry Potter.)
But the fast majority of Xhits against people like the Turnip, or Romney, or JD Vance, are things I don't need to have hidden because I'm not ashamed to say "I agreed with the person who called him an Orange Shitgibbon back then, and I still agree with them today."
Pedantry Corner: "hypocrisy" is when you fail to uphold the principles you sincerely believe. That's not the case here. These fascists are absolutely living by the principles they believe; they're just lying about what they are.
So, more correctly, *compulsive and brazen lying* is strength.
People who suddenly turn on a dime out of nowhere. I still find this phenomenon baffling. Other people in this category... Kristen Sinema And Lindsey Graham.
Is it that they never actually had any real convictions to begin with? Or is There something About a change in life circumstances that flips these people. I can't imagine my moral Compass doing a 180 overnight just because of a windfall or A catastrophe. It's so strange. But if you'll notice that 180 change always goes in one Direction. You never get somebody who is a fucking monster who, because of a change in life circumstances, suddenly becomes a decent person. Entropy Seems to favor evil
Mandy is the judge - and the only judge as to whether she tells her husband who she's voting for. If she wants to tell him, she can do so, but if she doesn't want to tell him, she doesn't tell him. Her husband can mind his own business.
I have a weird little caveat when it comes to lying. You are allowed to lie to someone if that someone asks you a question that they have no right to ask. Asking questions that you have no right to ask is a form of bullying. And you owe nothing to bullies
Some dude here fucked up so badly that someone rented a billboard on the ID/WA border that reads "Need Archery Lessons? Call literally anyone but Bob," with a prominent pic of Bob.
Putin offers a ceasefire in the event of the withdrawal of Ukrainian forces from the Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions, within their administrative borders (most of which Russia does not control and actually withdrew from after a defeat of Russian formations, such as in Kherson), in addition to rejection of NATO accession plans.
Frankly, I feel like the whole reverse "carry on is free, checked baggage is extra" is a holdover from days when bigger checked luggage itself weighed more. When your suitcase weighs 15 lbs, then forcing people to try to trim their packing into the smallest possible version of it made sense.
Modern checked international class suitcases weigh like... five pounds. My biggest one is made of fabric and aluminum. I'd have to put 20 lb dummbells into it in order to break the max 50 lbs rule.
At least the first checked one is still free on most international flights, depending on the airline.
I feel this so much. I have been saying for years that this would speed up the boarding process. Which is now, at least on United, a complete shitshow of an experience. Ugh. Sorry, this may have been more of a UA rant.
Seriously. Have a little under-the-seat size checker, and everything that doesn't fit costs money.
This would have the added advantage of getting people out of the damned aisle while they are fighting with getting the shit in and out of the overhead.
I am taking the disc golf player and his 11 year old son to see Alanis Morrisette with Joan Jett opening. It's a surprise for the son (who is a GREAT KID). The kid is a huge rock fan and this will be his first concert. I LOVE that it's going to be two legendary women rockers! We are going to have LOADS of fun!
Does it though? You get treated like criminals being transferred between prisons, you get stuff stolen from you if it appears on an arbitrary list and they have the cheek to expect you to be grateful for it.

Good morning.
New term for folks like Vance.'trigger people'

Windsocks.
And in Lindsey Graham's case, Cumsocks
It would take a stiff breeze to move them.
It's the moral dilemma between a large dump truck of money or all your dirty laundry getting leaked to the New York Post.

That's a valid take.
They should tell each other, have a blazing row, then couple like stoats in the ruins of the breakfast dishes.

I wish I was that vindictive.
I so want to know the backstory of that billboard.
Hydra Bob?
Good times

Nice try Vlad. He doesn't look good, imho. Good.

You kiss momma with that potato, comrade?
Da
Explains stubble and snot, at least.
annnnd here we go...
"We have a very full flight today, we are looking for 15 people to check their carry-on bags"
.
Silly travelers. Never carry on anything that doesn't fit under the seat in front of you.
i always check my luggage because i'm 1K on united and always travel with wine and more than 3 ounces of tabasco.
One carry on, period. Fit under the seat, period. Overheads are for that one bag and coats and shit.
Yuk. The boarding process ignites my homicidal nature. It's so hard for me to be patient.
Grr argh Hulk smash.
They should charge for carry-ons and give free bag check.

Don't give Ryanair ideas. Before you know it they'd have those for children.
It also would put more baggage in the hold, down low.
It would make getting through security easier for us all, too.
"Yup, I have mine right here. Now, where's my lower-limb torture rack?"

No step on snek.
DON'T DREAD ON ME!
Mon.
I am taking the disc golf player and his 11 year old son to see Alanis Morrisette with Joan Jett opening. It's a surprise for the son (who is a GREAT KID). The kid is a huge rock fan and this will be his first concert. I LOVE that it's going to be two legendary women rockers! We are going to have LOADS of fun!
Cool! I know you'll have a great time!
The ultimate disc players were out on the National Mall Tuesday. I think they do leagues.
Very cool! We played with a guy a few days ago who broke into the 900s in the PDGA rankings! It was really cool. I just walk the course these days!
Holy shit! That will be an awesome show!
It's at an outdoor venue, too, which will be lots of fun!
Stay hydrated!
A guy I played ball with in college had hip replacement surgery yesterday, and now I think I might be getting old.
One of my oldest friends is recovering from having a bionic leg put in too!
I've suggested that the bionics wont activate until the fuel cell is powered by enough beer.
JD - Excuse me while I fart.
"ahhhhhh"
TSAPre for the win this morning.. the other line was looooooong, just of me in the pre line
but that couple was clearly either stupid or had never seen an airport before..
TSA agent at the Xray conveyor: "Come on, drop and go! that's what you paid extra for! don't play with your bags!"
Terrorists would never be so bold as to pay $80.
my Global Entry interview was pretty funny..
CBP agent was doing his tough guy act.. until a little carefully considered humor when the camera was acting up pierced that persona ;)
"Cornucopia of Terror" is a great youtube channel for showing all the ways the US's security theater is just that: theater.
Security theater, what a crock of shit. I've got a lot of complaints about those people!
Oh aye. I can't take their silly little rituals seriously.
It is so stupid. Keeps the rubes fat dumb and happy though.
The US government's most expensive welfare program.
Does it though? You get treated like criminals being transferred between prisons, you get stuff stolen from you if it appears on an arbitrary list and they have the cheek to expect you to be grateful for it.
