Gavin appears to target those hobbyists who think that "enahancing" the bejeebers out of a picture makes it better. I suppose to a generation who watches overly CGI'd movies, it makes sense. Hrm.. something I wonder.... from personal experince, I found that my (hobbyist) photography changed rather ...

And all of this destruction, including wildlife, is based on Bannon coming up with a slogan.

Nothing matters more to Trump and his followers than their feelings. No amount of cost, in money or suffering or lives, matters more to them.

He doesn't care about security. He only wants to get to pocket the money.

I don't think he even cares about making money off the project, I am not sure he will. He has tied the wall to his identity, to his winning. He needs the wall in order to feel that he won, otherwise he loses.

My biggest fear is that he will continue to hold those rallies, constantly tweet, and the next POTUS will have a hell of a time attempting to govern a constantly angry, divided country. And the fucken media will continue to give him all the air time because it's good for their bottom line. We will ...

Leah writing for WaPo found the FBI threat assessment of Cliven and cRyan. Weird that the FBI would ask BLM to waive grazing fees. Worth a read. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/fbi-suggested-waiving-fees-for-cliven-bundy-before-ranch-standoff-deemed-him-not-a-threat/2018/12/08/f64cbf48-d630...

And that killer quote about John McAfee - in your mind, apply a variant of that to Ammon Bundy and what he got away with. Nice, no? Ugh. As many problems as I have with Bundy... McAfee is a whole other level of slimy. He is what Gavin really wishes he could be.. rich and powerful enough to run from...

Could you imagine the outrage if another country arrested a c suite executive of a major US company because they were selling equipment to a country the arresting one did not like? There would be warships deployed in no time.

Not to mention that the American revolution had little to do with corruption, but rather heavy-handed administration. I am not even sure I would blame the heavy-handed administration, but disagreements about what kinds of costs and rewards there should be for nearby wars, and unhappiness at England...

Was Ammon ever anti-immigrant? Did he make any statements to that effect, or did he just stay silent while his disgusting followers spewed their racist crap? I personally don't remember Ammon, himself, ever expressing anti-immigrant sentiments, but maybe he did and I missed it. Hrm. I can not find ...

Ammon went unpunished when he did the wrong thing (i.e., Bunkerville and MNWR). There's a certain deliciousness that he is being punished by his suckers buddies for doing the right thing (i.e., speaking up about immigration). What I still can not figure out is why he is all of a sudden pro-immigrant.

What's gotten into Lindsey? trump isn't going to be happy about this.

Graham has been around before Trump, and will probably be around long after. He probably does not care all that much what Trump the individual likes or dislikes.

So they advise believers to be ready to take care of their family and friends who have trouble dealing with the news on TV showing HRC and Obama getting arrested for treason. Given how obsessed they are with pedophilia and how it is involved with EVERYTHING, I am troubled about what kind of care an...

Actually, it's all about freedom of religion - Christian religion only, of course. Religious Freedom is the new I-can-get-away-with-anything card. I was also thinking back to old examples.. things like moving into regions that settlers are not supposed to go, or building farms where there is not en...

Tl;dr: Mr. Right Wing Christian buys a home in a HOA, sets up big holiday display despite being warned by HOA before he closes on the house that his display would cause problems. Tells HOA to eff off, fights with HOA and neighbors over the disruption it causes, keeps his assault rifle loaded in cas...

Maybe I just enjoy halloween too much, but I actually kinda like some of her decorations. The hall of simple red trees, and last year's hall of simple stark white wood, were both wonderfully creepy. I remember a small Christmas tree in the Magic Shop at Disneyland around mid 1970s. IIRC the actual ...

I'm not sure those are mutually exclusive though. She may be powerless and abused while also agreeing with him and being a willing participant. Indoctrination can be pretty insidious. While this is true, guessing at indoctrination is a pretty creepy form of armchair psychology and is steeped in tro...

I wouldn't assume she's unwilling.

Yeah, this is something I keep trying to point out. People seem to really want conventionally attractive white women to be powerless and abused, while struggling with the idea that maybe she actually agrees with him and is involved as a partner.

I've been thinking Whitaker might turn out not to be a problem as well. He doesn't seem to doing or even saying a hell of a lot about this investigation. Makes you wonder when Trump will turn on him. I would not be surprised if Whitaker is thinking ahead and realizing Trump probably is not going to...

Who thinks that he's headed for a major melt down in Buenos Aires? I guess it will depend on what, if any, new news drops while he is down there. If things are quiet he will probably just chill with other uber-powerful people and feel vindicated. If something new comes up, he will probably obsess a...

Stark, undecorated blood red trees are not attractive. ONE single red tree, decorated with white or silver or gold, might be ok. But this hall of blood is revolting. And Melania's "Be Best" ornaments are... all I can do is shake my head in disbelief. Maybe I just enjoy halloween too much, but I act...

Speaking of our Milky Way.. I recently learned it is one the oldest galaxies at 13.5 billion years (Andromeda is only 10 billion) Big Bang happened at 13.8 billion (a mere 300 million before our Milky Ways oldest star.) Our Sun is 4.6 billion, Earth is 4.5 billion. I think it takes that long for a ...

Reading the comments, I can't help but think this Q fervor is related to the show "The Purge" being in the zeitgeist. Tell me that's not what they really lust after. A day they could spend trying to wipe out all us Others? The ultimate Q wet-dream. For all their wackiness, they are not terribly cre...

A good guy with a gun shot by police? Maybe? From the little that has come out, sounds like an argument between multiple parties escalated, and the person shot was somehow involved in the original fight. So the victim might have been another shooter that did not hit anyone, or they could have been ...

Trump is banking that Americans are ok with brutal murders as long as they can fill their tanks cheaply. Sadly, his minions will be ok with it.

Well, they are only brutal murders of brown people. If they defiled some white girl who isn't a progressive activist then they might care.

Guess even zoophiles have their standards of decency. :rotflmao: Well, yes. zoophile is not quite the same thing as beastiality, and it isn't quite a simple rebranding either. The movement came out of ethical concerns, attempting to involve concepts like consent/sensitivity/relationship to what man...
