Trump Dodges Springfield Bomb Threat Question After Spreading Racist Lie: 'IDK' About It
  • Right, I think that this is really the only thing that comes close to an apology speaks for itself and the type of person Trump is. Every success is because of him and every failure is because of someone else.

    Trump Dodges Springfield Bomb Threat Question After Spreading Racist Lie: 'IDK' About It
  • Had to look this one up, Trump did issue an apology about grabbing women by the pussy, but it was probably not sincere, and only done to better himself than actually have remorse for his actions.

    Be careful.
  • FWIW this isn't always true. A few months ago, I needed to add an email to my Zelle account on Chase, and had to call them. I initiated the call and they did issue a text message verification to the phone number in my account while on the phone to confirm.

    Jill Stein schooled on House of Representatives in brutal "Breakfast Club" interview
  • Giving her the benefit of the doubt that she isn't a Russian agent, if she doesn't understand how the Electoral College works, then it makes sense she doesn't see herself as a spoiler and a waste of a vote. Clearly in the past 20ish years, she must have come across FiveThirtyEight and, so even a guess of 538 would be somewhat reasonable. 600 just shows lack of reasoning skills and/or knowledge of how the electoral college is made up.

    Trump running mate J.D. Vance: Americans won't be influenced by a 'billionaire celebrity'
  • I assume that since the deadline has past for some states, Vance has to be on the ballot, even if he drops out. Trump has to carry him to term (pun intended). For example, RFK Jr. dropped out, but will still be on the ballot.

    If these terrible people are elected and do not take the oath of office, then presumably the 25th amendment takes effect, and a new VP is appointed by the president, or the VP elect ascends to President if the presidency is vacant.

    I can't wait
  • If I told my boss I have concepts of a plan during an important call with clients, I'd be fired. The fact he said this thinking it would absolve him of having to actually outline actual policy shows how empty the campaign is on anything of substance.

    I have great hopes for this meme and hope it is as influential as "binders of women" in showing the absurd thinking behind the most important job in the world.

    I gave up on the "Trump lies" drinking game, I don't want to die of liver failure
  • Trump has been the wildcard and basically gone against every norm for someone running for office. In 2016 that was more unexpected and the electorate had a clear anti-establishment candidate they could get behind (even though he lost the popular vote).

    I think the trick has worn off and we now know how to deal with his antics, plus he's aged and less coherent. Also he was the establishment for 4 years, and can't be the wildcard candidate he once was.

    I think Vivek Ramaswamy was trying this playbook during the Republican primaries but failed to account for the cult of Trump and the racism in the party. Maybe it would have worked against someone who wasn't a former president or if Trump was sent to prison sooner.

    Dear iPhone users:
  • Now do VHS vs. Beta Max. Better specs don't always make a better product. This is coming from someone who uses Android, 3 or 4 of the specs I don't really care about. posts like these just divide us into tribes and that's not useful for anyone.

  • www.cnbc.com Celine Dion slams Trump campaign for ‘unauthorized usage’ of ‘Titanic’ song 'My Heart Will Go On'

    Celine Dion on Saturday bashed former President Donald Trump for using her song "My Heart Will Go On" without her permission.

    Today, Celine Dion's management team and her record label, Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc., became aware of the unauthorized usage of the video, recording, musical performance, and likeness of Celine Dion singing "My Heart Will Go On" at a Donald Trump /JD Vance campaign rally in Montana. In no way is this use authorized, and Celine Dion does not endorse this or any similar use. ..And really, THAT song?

    I didn't realize this was the season finale before watching and was mostly confused that was it after tonight's episode. Seems like they started more loose ends in that one episode, maybe in hope of another season, but it felt like it could have used an episode or two more to set that up better. Spoilers below:

    The Acolyte - Episode 8 Season Finale Discussion Spoilers
    • I kept expecting the Green Jedi woman to ultimately be behind the destruction of the witches fortress. It still doesn't make sense that the stone structure could sustain so much damage from some paper burning. Maybe bad editing or something in the previous episodes, but seems like there's still a side of a story being withheld.
    • Reveal of Yoda (or yaddle before growing hair!) and who I assume is Plagueis was underwhelming. Either could have been omitted without issue. If they were going for fan service, focus on one. If it is Plagueis, does the timeline even make sense??
    • Honestly, I wish there were more episodes with the Lesbian Witch Cult which weren't all flashbacks. That conflict with the Jedi was interesting (for the two days it happened in universe) and could have explored more of that side of the force before it was killed off. I guess I'm in the minority based on the backlash that received.
    • Kung fu and lightsaber battles were pretty good. Is this the first time in live action a jedi has turned off a lightsaber mid fight? I think out of everything, the choreography was the strongest aspect of the series.

    What'd everyone else think?
