I mean, we all have a tub of acid in our homes, right? Nothing to see here.

with all the low quality gypsum board on the market these days this is one way to guarantee high quality gypsum drywall.

We have accountability problems too on so many levels. Pedophilia is a good pace to start. As a society we should deal with pedophiles harshly, no matter who they are. A system where the rich are allowed to circumvent the law is our reality, but we should draw the line before pedophilia. If a rich person does what the Epstein abusers did, they should be at the mercy of the accused and their family, even if it means their death. Chain the abuser to a wall and let the abused and their families into the room with a crowbar. Thats simple justice and its long overdue.

well shucks of all the rotten luck. Weird accidents always seem to happen when the government keeps custody of evidence they are liable in.

msft product managers are the worst. They dont care about what the customers want.

could have major repercussions for democracy

I dont know what “democracy” they are talking about. Maybe if politicians acted like they were in a democracy they wouldnt suffer “harassment”.

Dem leaders yet again drop the ball that was handed to them on a silver platter.

I suppose thats what counts as integrity these days.

Oh, I’m sure the US taxpayer is somehow footing the bills for those. We always pay full price on anything relating to trump.

hey tropicaldingdong, no you are correct. I’ve been reading up on it lately and looks like I cited an article that didnt talk about it. Sorry about that. Heres some that talk about registration specifically https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5462604-voter-registration-shift-democrats/ https://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2025/08/20/democrats-voter-registration

more lies.

Even with trump in office, democratic party registrations continue to plummet. It turns out people dont like Israeli agents who dont give a shite about them. Who could have possibly forseen this?

The alamo was a US led insurrection in Mexican territory because the rich US landowners there wanted slavery to continue, and for manifest destiony (aka zionist-style land theft). Its yet another stain on US history that we could only hope would ever be forgotten.

I’m increasingly convinced that our democratic party reps dont actually exist.

Democrats are. 99% of Democratic leaders, not so much.

Bill Clinton straight facedly describing being give a rusty-trombone by Trump would be the best moment in all American politics, ever.

eh. I dunno… Maybe for your god. My god (Church of Satan) says to use science to make sure your house is not built on flood plains. He/She (its both) also says to mind your own business and make sure other people are fed and educated.

No one likes these ideas. They prefer the deadly flood.

Flawless representation of all magats.

Well maybe not in this life, but someday there will be a non right wing leader of the American states again, or a portion of them anyway. We might as well start planning for that now rather than waiting.

Yeah… One of the Obama quotes that sums him up pretty well is, “Tell me what we’re doing and I’ll sell it”.

BUT, because of this countries history and a lot of undealt with racism and the path of pure chaos that always springs up from that, it was important for us all to have a black president and it was important that he do well. And Obama did well above average, even if I wanted a lot more out of him, after he strung us along with “Hope and Change”. Obamacare alone sealed his legacy. His term was an important step toward universal civil rights. I dont know about you, but I Like civil rights and human rights for all. Its one of the #1 things I care about. The universality of rights is important no matter who you are–even to your avwerage white male right winger-- equal protection is something they need and should value. I am a financially OK old white guy myself, so this is not some sort self serving statement.

We all need everyone in the US to do well because a country where all have enough is a significantly better, safer, happier, brighter place to live, and also just a better place to be a human being in. America needs to be a country that makes sure its poor have “enough” rather than a country fixated on if poor people have “too much”. We’ve become a shittier people over the course of my lifetime and there needs to be a change. Its got to start with getting rid of centrist dems and replacing them with people who care about the issues of the voters, even the poor ones, and who pledge to fight for human and civil rights for all-- that includes rejecting AIPAC completely. Then we corral the republicans and put them in a legal box they cant wiggle out of. To create that box we need to get civil and human rights going again as a key part of who we are.
