I take comfort in the hope that many corporations and institutions will crumble once this corrupt buffoon is gone due to their decision to kiss his fascist ass rather than stand up to him when they had the chance. I won't forget. I hope others don't either.

I heard a pundit say Trump is insulting the intelligence of his supporters. Nah. They're fucking morons.

Can you imagine wanting to hear this dumb fuckers voice every hour? It's a damn shame that there are cultists out there probably watching the hands tick in anticipation of hearing his wisdom. I'd rather stick needles in my damn eyes.

Reading a lot of expert analysis on the mid-terms but it comes down to the same shit as always. Will people vote against someone they disagree with on 90% of issues if the alternative is someone they only agree with on 90% of issues? Perfection is the enemy of good.

One day perhaps I'll get an email or text from some political campaign that doesn't insult my intelligence by trying to frame me as "a top supporter" and I'll donate a few bucks. I can't contribute to those in good conscience. The pandering sickens me.

Yep. I know. That's why I follow you and why I pay attention to the emotion in your writing. If it gets crazy you'll say so. Lol

It's obviously not just young though. At 57 I still see that pack mentality but 90% of the time if I counter the ignorance other men will join me. They're just afraid to be the first. I've taught my sons to be the fucking first. They were surprised how often it works.

Can we also admit that the dumb mother fuckers who thought he should stop calling them weird are dumb mother fuckers and shouldn't be advising any campaign going forward?

As a former Texan who moved to Michigan to get away from ignorance like this I just assumed it had to be Texas. Alas, it's my new state. Unfortunately, there are horrible, ignorant people everywhere but I take solace in the fact that there appears to be far less in Michigan than Texas...😁

I asked AI to predict the Top 25 college football games yesterday. It was 100% correct, to include calling the Okla St upset over Oregon, and it predicted a 24-23 win for UT over that Ohio school. If anyone needs me I'll be building a bunker to eventually hide from AI...😃

Here we are again. Talarico made a couple of statements that didn't sit well with the Trans community and people are ready to sit out the election. I get the frustration but Paxton would lock up LGBTQ folks if he could. Hate me if you want to but this is a no brainer. Less harm always gets my vote.

I was a Texas conservative SBC kid at UofH during the LA Riots. I'm still thankful for my black American Studies instructor who transformed my entire world view during that moment and throughout that semester. My eyes were forever opened. It wasn't indoctrination. It was empathy and context.

The MAGA movement has destroyed the solemn, hallowed part of any day that might have significance for many who have a sense of real patriotism. They've turned such days into a weird, nationalistic charade of BS that I, for one, want no part of. It's now just another day and I truly hate that.

Regarding AI use... I've used many but CoPilot is my favorite by far. The primary reason is that it's designed differently, more as a genuine helper and with a built in bullshit detector. Tell most LLMs you're a racist and they will likely support you. CoPilot will challenge your ignorance.

I've been using AI for 3 years now. I believe it to be useful and worthwhile but I also believe it needs serious regulations in place before it's too late. I don't fear AI but I do fear what greedy, corrupt people will use it for. AI isn't the problem. Humans are...as always.

Hopefully we'll get to watch it being demolished soon. Seriously. I don't care what it costs to undo all of his shitty decor. I'll gladly donate to the fund. I'm pretty sure a pay per view option alone could pay for it 10 times.

I'm tired of posts blaming economic uncertainty for far right groups being voted into power. Only a shitty human votes their wallet over human decency. Fuck all of those people. They would be even shittier if they were wealthy. It's them. It's just them. They suck

I say all of that as a former sportswriter, a big Michigan fan, an even bigger fan of the game, and a lifelong fan of an underdog story. 98% of the time I'll root for the enormous longshot even against my own team (again, bigger fan of the game itself). I'm a sucker for that story.

Go Broncos and congrats on the "win". Not saying there wasn't a smidgen of time on the clock but I am saying if the shoe had been on the other foot the odds of there even being a review are slim to none. The game would've likely ended. Now, go win the MAC!

It's okay. Hopefully we will right the ship soon but given our habit of making the same mistake twice I say wait at least a decade before you trust us again. We have a lot of morons here.

Having spent 8 years in the Army I can say with complete certainty that his selfish "look at me" mentality would've led to many blanket parties and his eventual forced discharge. Nobody wants to be in a foxhole with a POS like that.

I sure hope if Dems take the House and Senate justice is swift for every corrupt mother fucker who needs to meet justice. Anything short of that is unacceptable. No Biden forgiveness shit. I voted for him but I can call out his failures because I'm not in a cult. That was the biggest.

As someone who has never voted by mail I do hope those who do will suck it up and vote in person this election. Just maybe say "Fuck it" and go stand in line with the rest of us. Not saying bow to the fascists but they will try to cancel mail in votes and we could all be fucked.

I hate when a politician says "The American people aren't stupid". I get the pandering aspect but it's not true. We are a nation of stupid people. If not, we wouldn't be in this moment. We have way more stupid people than any nation should have.

The Markey spanking of Moulton proves something I've said often. It's not really age, despite media framing, it's policy. Sure, younger people bitch about "old white men" but it's because their policies are old. My GenZ sons will take an 80 yo with fresh ideas over a young dinosaur any day.

While fighting a system controlled by a lot of bigoted white fathers. As a white father I know that to be true because I hear what's said when the black fathers aren't around. Racism is alive and well. Just ignore our white asses and keep driving on.
