Two years of free credit monitoring, which when you sign up for explicitly in the fine print gives permission for the credit monitoring service to sell your data.

He bankrupted a casino. That’s all you need to get.

The problem is the big hungry bears are looking at y’all trying to figure out how to divvy your area up, and only thing keeping the Trump one from just cozying completely up to the other is his inability to stick with a thought process for more than five minutes.

I’m not 100% convinced this isn’t the new eugenics.

39. I’m scrabbling and doing everything to stay alive for my parents so that they don’t worry. When they pass, fuck it, I’ll probably help the statistic along.

State line road. If I’m driving north I’m in Missouri. If I’m driving South, I’m in Kansas. (Kansas City, Missouri)

It’s Trump, the guy who bankrupted a casino and regularly doesn’t pay people he contracts.

If he started paying people and keeping anything without going to insolvency I’d think he’d been killed and a lizard was wearing his skin suit.

Oh no, you don’t get to drop something like that without further context!

I’ve known about Christianity is almost the English of Religions as in it sneaks other religions in the alley, knocks them over the head and riffles through their pockets for traditions, and weirdly knew about the Santa comes from Odin…

I did not know anything about the Mother Mary side though, that is really fantastic to learn.

Oh I’ve done the compassion front right up until the last election. I talked just like this on “No, we need to meet halfway.”

After enough “I did it to own the libs” I’ve learned my lesson.

Where does that get you? Does writing them off instead of reaching out to them make the world better?

I’ll tell you where working with them, trying to understand them, trying to help them see how the different parties have direct affect on their lives has gotten me. I’ve got to have the ability to talk republican because I work in blue collar jobs, yet I’ve tried so very hard to show how it directly affects their lives and being compassionate.

It’s gotten me them proudly coming in and crowing they voted Republican, keeping to their sports teams, and the people who hate the republicans telling me “I just really don’t care about politics.”

So where does me writing them off get me? Finally understanding I CANNOT get to them, and my life has been a process of teaching a pig to sing. It wastes my time and annoys the pig.

Okay, that is cool!

I would like to subscribe to more obscure connections of modern iconography to unrelated mythology.

Yet we have people that seems to defend these people like they’re not.

I don’t have a lot of hope of “winning people over”, it might come from living in a red state where people keep voting for the party that fucks them over, they get mad when they get fucked over, then they vote for the party that promises to take away the lube.

As in: WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?

They’re the ones that are supporting tyranny. The 2A shit was always a grift.

Cripes…No Democrats, it’s not fighting Texas, it’s fighting against every damn red state.

Speak to shit realistically for the love of democracy.

From Missouri: THANK YOU!

No, really. We in Missouri are having our third AG in a row not finish his term because he’s climbing the ladder, when Jogs Hawley promised he wouldn’t use the position to chase a job… And then voted Eric Schmitt to AG to… do the same shit. Now since our current one can’t be a senator after suing everyone for wokeism, he’s gonna go co-run the FBI.

Also Missouri has a nice part where petitions can get to bills that the public votes on to pass as laws. We’ve passed things like stopping puppy mills, keeping abortion legal, expanding medicaid, guaranteed sick time, and stopping of gerrymandering. Every one of these the Republicans have overturned despite the state voting overwhelmingly for these things.

Why?

Because the fucking mouthbreathing hicks in the country can’t get past the idea of voting for anyone with an R next to their name no matter if the candidate informed them not only would they ignore what they want for anything else, they’d shit in their mouth.

No no no… you don’t get it. Walmart isn’t cowards.

They funded Project 2025. This is EXACTLY what they want.

Then those people were fucking idiots. Things were shit under Trump 1.0 with the inflation starting under him, it continued with Biden who was trying to keep an economy from collapsing after the Trump idiocy with a pandemic, so brought back in Trump 2.0 to finish the job of wrecking the economy.

Bread and eggs, no.

Beans and rice… probably.

I’ve been calling Trump’s administration the Confederate victory 160 years later. They played the long game and people got cozy with the racists around.
