@jolly said in Trump may hang a skin on the wall.: Trump got 33% of the latino vote. That's about 98% in Trump numbers.

Sort of along those lines, remember the "Shithole Countries" outrage? Yeah. Well, it seems that President Unity just said that 10% of the population of the United States either need to "smarten up" or have "Neanderthal thinking." If you include Delaware, NY and Colorado, that number jumps to 20%. Dog-faced pony soldier.

@doctor-phibes said in The Ruined Generation: I made a promise when I was young that I would never start going on about how awful the young are when I got old. I'd never go on about how in my day we made our own entertainment, and how whatever it was that replaced TV isn't a patch on watching freaking Scooby Doo at 5 o'clock after we walked home from school in our underwear because we couldn't afford to catch the bus. I'm not having it. When I was 15 I spent most of my available free time smoking behind the bush shelter, drinking hard cider on golf courses and generally being a little shit. The people who spent their lives in church may have had different experiences. Bloody boring ones, most likely, which is why they're complaining now. It's like were related or something. Scary actually. lol

@horace said in Who dis?: Kon Tiki A wonderful book, as well. The author, Thor Heyerdahl, was the man who organized and said the Kon-Tiki. His nephew (I believe) is Chris Heyerdahl. Chris played "The Swede" in Hell on Wheels. It's also a decent, but not great, movie. Gustaf Skarsgård (Floki) is in it. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1613750/ The 1950 documentary: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0042650/?ref_=ttrel_rel_tt [image: 1920px-Kon-Tiki%2C_Kon-Tiki_Museum%2C_2019_%2802%29.jpg]

@doctor-phibes said in What about the suicide rate?: I also read today that there is a link between Covid infection and depression and other mental issues Color me surprised.

@aqua-letifer said in My lazy day: Which one? (Because c'mon, the gear stuff is damn fun. ) It's one of the early Sony mirrorless with the e mount (when they were branded NEX) I mostly shoot with a 1.8 / 50mm prime... I need a 35mm.

Sooner or later the wall will be named after a famous American. Who? Mr. Trump Mr. Biden Ms. Clinton A confederate general An illegal alien Wolf Blitzer Nancy Pelosi George Floyd

It’s a bit ham handed but a fun read.

That guy in the grey, on the other side of the counter? Yeah, he's making hash browns and fried eggs. It really doesn't get more "blue-collar" than Country Cup.

@taiwan_girl said in Mr. Biden's statistics: @jolly said in Mr. Biden's statistics: @taiwan_girl said in Mr. Biden's statistics: @jolly I think your BDS is showing. LOL Economy goes up while President Trump is in office = good Economy goes up while President Biden is in office = problem I don't think the economy would go up, particularly the stock market, without the massive infusion of money that is taking place. That's not BDS, that's simple economics. I am sure you are probably right. But wasn't the cost of the No 1 stimulus plus No 2 stimulus even more than the No 3 stimulus? (i know I know, the response will be that after No 1 (or maybe after No 2), the US should have stopped) Good. You know.

That is sad. I dont think I remember her, though the name does seem a bit familiar.

Have they ever heard of actual investigation and reporting? Hunter Biden is a gold mine, all by himself...

Project management, which includes estimation, is part and parcel of development. One can only speculate how many Americans would have been vaccinated by now had he remained in office.

@jodi could be Dr. Phibes. Just sayin....

@mik said in Boat Names: Maybe not that one. Yes, that one! The British people wuz robbed!

Fair or not - Biden should be raked over the coals for this. It forces the democrats to examine their own position on the border. Smart GOPer should stay on point on this one: "kids in cages"

Predictable in function, if not form.
