    Ah that makes sense Gorsameth.
    I look at Ashli Babbitt the same way I guess.
    Generally women aren't the ones that take up political violence.

    And lol Edge I didn't know that was such a common misconception.
    It's fitting though.

    Still a weird fucking reason to want to kill over.
    Silly me trying to figure out motivations.

    Pfft, all he has lately is "look, there are other people that hate Biden too!" which as a gotcha is ridiculous because most of us that voted for him here don't particularly care for him either. He just was and is far superior to Trump and continues doing a decent job overall.

    Oh, I ran out of time yesterday so didn't get around to the quickie Monday report, so here it is:

    109,103 new cases (around 20k fewer than two weeks ago) and 843 deaths (around 150 fewer than 2 weeks ago), bringing the total to 680,405. It continues to look like the national peak is behind us and hopefully we can get those cases way down before the inevitable fall/winter wave arrives.

    Tennessee COVID-19 cases climb to top in the country--Coughin' in Memphis...

    'Preventable' costs for unvaccinated COVID-19 patients climbs by billions in August: KFF analysis--Wonder how those "fiscal conservatives" are feeling. I tell a lie. I don't care.

    Stay safe, folks.

    The problem is they refuse to see this.
    They refuse to see that many of us may not have wanted Biden either but would rather him than Trump.
    They rephrase it as "No way did that many people vote for Biden! Rigged!"
    Instead of seeing it as a vote against Trump.

    Also, he's not the only one around here I'm seeing do that lol.

    They can't process that Biden supporters aren't so slavishly devoted to Biden as they are to Trump, flying flags for Biden on their Prius's, at their homes, wearing Biden gear from head to toe, having pop-up "Biden Gear" shops, placing cardboard cutouts of Biden's head poorly MS Painted onto the body of Rambo etc. etc.

    They think that we love Biden the way they love Trump. Which is fuckin hilarious, because they can't process that other people aren't functional cultists. They genuinely don't seem to understand that you can have voted for Biden, maybe like him overall, but still be highly critical of many of his views and policies.

    There's no way you pulled such a rando comment out of thin air so I'm guessing some Trumper really did this lol.
    Speaking of, just a couple weeks ago I saw a guy on the side of the interstate on-ramp selling Trump flags still.
    Really struck me as odd seeing as it's fucking September now but I never looked at it the way you described it.
    When you guys talk about the cult thing I kinda just laugh it off knowing it's both true and exaggerations but it's really not.

    Well, it was a parody of this:



    And I bet some of you can only hear "Coughin' in Memphis" for a while now.

    I was moments away from writing out a full parody but my last one wasn't received so well.

    Trumpbo has been a regular feature on creepy rape vans, shitty lifted trucks, flags, front lawns, and pop-up Trump gear stores for years now. And he's hardly alone, he's also on the body of Stalone from Rocky, Arnold from various movies, and other 80's action stars.

    Ok, now some of the lines take a very dark turn.

    "Now I got a first class ticket but I am as blue as a boy can be.
    Then I was Coughin' in Memphis
    Was walking with my ventilator
    Coughin' in Memphis
    But do I really feel the way I feel?"

    Changed lyrics somewhat.

    Not to mention several villains, like fucking Thanos. Painted in a positive light. Unironically.

    lol god.
    I only recently started paying more attention to the Trump side of things because of my aunt.
    I was kidding with my WWF comment the other day but fuck me, they aren't.

    The Arnold one is weird because didn't he denounce them AND not like Trump?
    Oddly, he's said things lately I agree with too.

    The Thanos one I can see though, that's pretty much her husband, wishing he could snap half of us away.

    Did you forget? Covid magically disappeared a couple weeks after Biden won.

    Things in California are looking good for Democrats so far. Things in Texas are too.

    The survey released Thursday found that 41 percent of Texans approved of the job Abbott is doing, compared to 50 percent who disapproved of his job performance.

    The approval is lower than it was in June when 44 percent approved of the governor's performance, equal to the 44 percent that said they disapproved.

    Fifty-two percent of voters said the state is headed in the wrong direction, the worst the institute has recorded since it started in 2008.

    The more recent Texas Policy Project poll found that Abbott’s job approval dropped among all partisan groups, but decreased most significantly among independents. Thirty percent of respondents who identified as independent voters said they approve of the job Abbott is doing, down from 41 percent in June.

    His approval dropped from 77 percent to 73 percent among Republicans, and from 8 percent to 6 percent among Democrats.
