  1. Moot point as it never would have happened under Biden.

    How did a Fantasy Football Forearm get so political?

    You'd never know it from this forum, seems like there have been more threads on transgenders than any other subject.

  7. https://x.com/kylegriffin1/status/1904891297216799088 In the Senate worldwide threats hearing just yesterday, Sen. Martin Heinrich asked: "Precise operational issues were not part of this conversation?" Tulsi Gabbard replied: "Correct." Pete Hegseth shared launch times in the Signal war plans chat.

    Jasmine Crockett tells it like it is

    If so, then it was an unfortunate choice of words on her part.

    Jasmine Crockett tells it like it is

    They didn't cheer it, but they tried to spin it along the lines of "Don't believe your lying eyes" and he had done that before to others who weren't disabled (although the clips they showed were completely unconvincing).
  10. It is not true that it is now OK. That is why the Q in LTBTQ stands for either Queer or Questioning because many LGBTQ folks still find the term Queer offensive.
  11. It is for the same reason that "homosexual" became unacceptable to gay men and the term "gay" was adopted instead. As it has been explained to me, there is nothing wrong, per se, with the terms "colored" or "Negro" it is just that over the years these words became loaded with additional meaning and when they heard non-Black folks use it to describe them it was often seemed to have an animus to it.
  12. And if you believe that, I got a bridge I want to sell you.

  14. He told us before the election what he planned to do. The Project 2025 Policy Agenda was out there for anyone who wanted to read it. But people ignored all that and the warnings from Democrats of what a debacle a second Trump term would be. If those who voted for him weren't dumb or stupid, then they were just willfully ignorant for which there is no excuse.

    아사달 (Asadal) - Gin&Tonic "The Music Video is awesome! Just like a movie" Asadal (아사달) is a Korean Indie Rock band.
  16. "Negro" was not Politically Correct in the 80's and although it was not considered as pejorative as "colored" you still wouldn't want to refer to anyone Black in their presence as a "negro" as they would probably take offense to it. If Sowell insisted on using the term at that time, he comes across as being either obstinate or tone deaf.
  17. Jeebus. I thought the "Blacks are dumb" belief was a thing of the past, but I guess not.
  18. But her emails!

    The Kinks - Lola

    Most? I wouldn't include Led Zeppelin, The Stones, or CCR on that list. That said, many were overated. Here are my thoughts on a few: The Doors - Jim Morrison seemed overblown and pretentious at the time - seems even more so now. The Monkees - Don't get me wrong. They had some great songs (but all their hits were written by The Brill Building folks). And the fact is that they were the corporate manufactured "Boy Band" of their day (which may be why they haven't made The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame). The Jimi Hendrix Experience -The group's songs don't hold up that well to me (although Hendrix guitar playing is simply extraordinary if you listen to his live performances). The Beach Boys - Became a bit tiresome as the decade wore on ""Saccharine harmonies, inane lyrics and the same clichés repeated over and over again like a wave hitting the shore." - Robyn Strachan The Mothers of Invention - Frank Zappa's music did absolutely nothing for me. Never saw the appeal. The Grateful Dead - They had their moments if you like long extended jamming, but a little too laid back and low key for my tastes. Cream - As much as I liked them at the time, I haven't felt the need to revisit any of their catalog in decades. Jefferson Airplane - Somebody To Love is an all time Classic Rock tune and White Rabbit is pretty decent, but it is all downhill from there, exept for Today from their first LP where Marty Balin did the vocals. The Byrds - "Whether The Byrds are overrated is subjective, but their influence on folk rock, psychedelic rock, and country rock is undeniable, and they are considered a significant band in rock history."

    Svart Ridå - Vem vill du vara? (2025) All female Indie Rock trio from Malmo, Sweden, music is a mixture of Post Punk, Shoegaze and 90's Grunge and 70's Pop.
  21. I asked him the same question, which he never directly addressed either, probably because any answer would only make him look like an even worse bigot.
  22. Which is what, exactly, that your ancestors and Nation believes in?
  23. Not offically but (from the OP): "It's symbolic, but it's incredibly meaningful in its symbolism," says Melissa Murray, a constitutional law professor at New York University.
  24. Yeah, well, maybe because it is too dumb to talk about. It ain't gonna happen.

    IRS may turn over tax data to immigration officials

    It is can only be viewed as a betrayal by our government who gave its word this would not happen. The Latino community will soon discover what Trump really thinks of them (if they haven't already figured it out).
