How much longer is this going to continue? I am asking JK/Psych and I am asking everyone else.

if his obsession with hillary clinton is any indication…

Speaking of Hillary....
Remember the first Trump inauguration when Bill fantasized about sticking a cigar in Melania and Hill wasn't happy? Or was Bill looking at and thinking about something else?

He is basically admitting no, I don’t think any of that happens because he knows it won’t and is covering his bases

I don't start it; I respond when attacked.

It actually has started to remind me of A Christmas Story with the two bullies - Scut Farkas and Grover Dill. It invariably goes something like this:

Scut Farkas (Overlander): "Hey, kid, get over here!"
Grover Dill (Trad): "Yeah, kid, get over here!"
Scut: "Now, say UNCLE!"
Grover: "Yeah! Say UNCLE!"

Then, randomly, Shirley chimes in. I don't know how that fits the A Christmas Story narrative other than maybe he's the grumpy old Dad cursing at the furnace and taking out his frustration on everyone else.

It's dumb and predictable, and it just goes on and on.

Cook, Bezos, Zuck in church with Trump this morning.

Good job, egg-pricers. You have handed the country to the billionaire technocrats you claim to hate.

So interesting, since those three were your heroes during the Plandemic.

He just follows the playbook.

Wait a second.
Which Christmas Story character are you trying out for?

Do you really have yellow eyes, Scut?

(The comedic backdrop of all of this is that Psych’s preferred alternative is unquestionably INFERIOR in the sorts of settings from which Psych is making conclusions about intelligence.)

You beat me to it.

Hypocrite, much?

But, that being said, thanks for making our point, Psych!


BTW, do you have even a scintilla of self-insight, Psych?

I'm so tired of this narrative, mainly because it is ridiculously inaccurate.

I am no fan or champion of Donald J. Trump. I did not vote for him in 2020. I did not vote for him in the 2024 primaries. I was desperately hoping that another candidate would win.

Failing that, I hoped that the Dims would do the right thing, admit that Brandon's brain was broken, and take the time to nominate someone I could get behind. "Heck, I voted for and supported Bill Clinton, maybe we can go back to those days," I thought to myself. Instead, they chose to lie and scheme and insist that he was not just okay, but GREAT!

Then, when he made a complete idiot of himself in the first debate, you all had a chance for a do-over. Instead, you just chose the empty-headed toady who was complicit in the "Brandon is doing great" lie, and who stubbornly insisted that everything was fantastic, while defaulting to the "I grew up middle-class" and "unburdened by what has been" schtick whenever asked difficult questions, slurring her words along the way.

Unlike you, I don't believe the "it's time for us to have a woman of color as POTUS, so we have to elect her" argument is valid. We're talking about the hardest, most important job in the world, not the manager of Wendy's.

When given a choice between two undesirable options, I'm going with the lesser of evils - holding my nose and cringing all the way - but acknowledging that there is a lesser of evils. I'm not in the "Dawn is Breaking for America Today" crowd, but I am at least somewhat hopeful that things will be better than they would have been with Giggles (or whoever her handlers would have been) at the helm.

didn’t vote for him, but droned on and on about the stolen election?

yeah, ok…sure

Cool story, bro.

And, I say that despite ~ two decades of interacting with you in which I can't recall you ever coming across the way you now purport to feel. But, vive la différence!

Any chance that the "différence" in the way you described the two choices you had in '24 is a tell, and undermines the story of New Psych?

mumbled nonsense paraphrases of Marx.

this got me all excited.

Like, did I miss something?!

So I went looking, and apparently Kamala being described as Marxist is Trump boogeyman rhetoric that Politifact rates as, "Pants On Fire."

Good job, egg-pricers. You have handed the country to the billionaire technocrats you claim to hate.

The bulk of Apple and its affiliates’ contributions to congressional and federal candidates went to Democrats, with 88% and 89.2% of the total amount of dollars, respectively, Open Secrets data shows.

The bulk of Amazon-affiliated contributions to congressional and federal candidates went to Democrats — around 68% of the total amount of donated dollars, per OpenSecrets.

The bulk of the [Meta] contributions to congressional and federal candidates went to Democrats — around 78% of total dollars donated.



I'm afraid this country being handed to billionaire technocrats is more than just a partisan issue.

but...fuck it. Let's blame the folks who wanna do things like, eat breakfast!

You think "unburdened by what has been" is original to Giggles? Go back through your copy of Das Kapital.

Same Psych. You see what you want to see. As per usual.
