I have been trying NOT to follow this case but it just keeps getting weirder. The sheriff in these parts seems to have been chosen based on the amount of lead paint ingested as a child. The whole family always acts bizarre about everything. The FBI is involved which is always a handful but rn it's a cornucopia of underwear. Now a month in they decide to offer a reward? My gut says this whole thing is some kind of stunt but I really do not know.

I just looked (admittedly not for very long), and I see this to the contrary:

How is what you quoted in any way to the contrary?

I noticed that as well but was too polite to say anything [emoji56]

he's very even tempered and polite, so it's not a matter of account churn due to catching permas

but rather, at some point each account loses all credibility so he leaves and comes back a few years later with a fresh start thinking it was just bad luck and not terrible posting that was illogical and stupid which is why he never found joy the previous times


They are a shitposter rick it ain't that deep please chill ty.


And I don't mean that as an insult I am very much that.


Mexico’s Gov’t Warns of Legal Action Against Musk After He Falsely Links Sheinbaum to Drug Cartels

why warn the mother****er? just wait til he's in Mexico, then ****ing arrest him.

same with people who refuse an invitation to the Whitehouse, like athletes and artists. just accept the ****ing invitation, show up and spit in his ****ing face, or show up and do something else that is about a zillion times better than just refusing an invitation

you're actually one of the best posters here imo - though it admittedly took me a while to warm up to you and get used to your style

and he's not, he's very serious about trying to sound super smart and intellectual with an "i know better than all of you" mantra that it comes packaged in

I am aware of that, ty.

I don't feel that at all. It might be something else.

I read you to be saying that she wanted to speak out on Palestine but was prevented by the party

I posted her saying that she was in full control of her campaign, which I see does not contradict what you actually said

Kamala KNEW that coming out against the genocide in Palestine would win her the election. She chose not to do that because the party would rather Trump be President than speak out against that genocide.

That said, I did not see that she knew she would win at the time. The DNC did an "autotopsy" after the fact which made the determination

I could could be missing again, of course


Rick, I'm aware that I'm a ****. Thank you.

She's dead already

This is my thought too.

The real story isn't that she's missing; it's that so much press is devoted to it.

There's some mild controversy about a tourettes guy saying the n word at baftas. People are making analogy of wheel cheer running over someone's toe, but I think it's closer to just getting upset at wheel chair people for existing at all. Should be a nothing burger.

Analogies are a bit lazy argument anyway.


if you believe people with tourettes, and how they describe their condition, then it's more like blaming someone with bad gas for farting


Crohns!


Sounds like you don't know what happened


I do and I am sensitive to the man's disability but also to Michael and Delroy.


It sounds like your take is "they shouldn't be offended" but that can't be correct because that's not a choice they have and disregarding their suffering would be disrespectful and borderline racist.


my read of it is that they are still the genuine thoughts, they just can't stop it from coming out

Yes the man's brain picks the most offensive thing it can think of for that moment. He didn't call the queen the nword.

I didn't say anything about the offense they take.

Then I misunderstood you. Which part was the nothing burger
