Thinker, amateur philosopher, a good day has at least 1 idea rolling around in my head. And a devout atheist, formerly an agnostic, formerly but still formally a Roman Catholic by birth. Please excommunicate me.
If it's OK for the tRump's Gestapo to point guns at me, throw me to the ground etc.

Then, wouldn't it be OK for me to mount Claymores on the side of my car?

Well that's cute, I just called into a company that I do business with.

After a couple of minutes in the queue, a message comes up, there are zero people in the queue.

Took 5 more minutes to get a human.

It's, in my time zone, the 11th hour of the 11th day, of the 11 month.

Thank you vets.

When I was 16, at my 1st job at McDonalds, I missed 1 12 cent hamburger on the bill

I got a 5 minute tongue lashing for losing 12 cents. I had to pay the 12 cents

Yesterday on a BOGO where I was supposed to pay for the higher priced biscuit, I got charged for the lower priced biscuit

Payback baby

tRump speaking at the Veteran's Day ceremony.

1000% disrespectful.

Take a breath and let's see what may be on the upside.

We get an AZ D house member sworn in, we get a vote on the
Epstein issue.

We get SNAP back long term.

People get paid and some fired people get their jobs back.

We get at least a public discussion on health care

tRumpsters, may do it again

I'm an old guy just trying to buy beer

1 time, I just get waved thru

Sometimes, the checkout person enter my year of birth, today they put in 1958, and I thanked her

1 time, I had to take my DL out and hand it to her, and I said my birthday xx/yy/52.

She wanted the DL expiration

WTF????

Assume the US annual budget is $6.8 trillion.

Assume that Elon just had $1 trillion dollars given to him.

Now, make your own assumptions/conclusions.

HFS.

I ran out of beer.

WTF let that happen?

Hey gals and guys.

Today is 11/7.

The fight over the current shutdown/CR is over a bill the expires on 11/21.

Hey GOP house, you do know you need to work on the next stupid CR, right?

In 2 weeks we need another piece of shit.

My question is, the 'sworn victim' obliviously lied on the stand, and the defense got him to tell a more correct story.

Where's the perjury charge?
November 7, 2025 at 4:59 PM
It's just obscene.

I've sat on 2 jureys, I am amazed at how long it took to acquit.

I listened to 3 and 4 days of testimony, and in both cases, we had a unanimous verdict in less than 2 hours.

What was the argument in the jury room?

What's going on, went for a sub, and there's a 3 block long line.

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

While often given attribution, Mark Twain didn't write this.

Doesn't mean it isn't true.

If you want to call me and all anti tRump people antifa and communists, fine.

Antifa = Anti Facist.

Do you need your brain separated from your body?

Just listen to the SCOTUS oral arguments on tariffs.

Now where did my 3lbs go?

Here boy, whistle, whistle ...

A bit of hair splitting, but I'll ask the question.

Cheney died 11/3.

Voting day in CO, is 11/4.

I'd bet he'd have done a mail in ballot. All CO voters get one.

Should that vote be counted?

Just asking.

I'm on the edge of my seat.

I need more details on the sub.

Toasted or not.

Dressing selection.

Fresh or day old bread.

Velocity.

Were ballistic tests run.

I need to see the sandwich.

What a freaking joke this is.
I used to say this trial was a waste of taxpayer dollars, but I think it’s totally worth it.
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.

The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.

"I could smell the onions and mustard."
