1.04 The X-man Schauffele I think Bryson was who he was thinking of, although clearly it's a drop after those top two. I'm pretty happy with Xander at #4 -- defending champ, playing well, performs well at Quail Hollow. But I could see you having two other guys here instead. In fact with 8 drafters and the LIV guys, the first round or two will feel pretty stacked.

Does that make it art? Say New York paid a million dollars for a concrete sphere. "Hey, that was a stupid thing to spend money on!" "Your discussing it, that's art!"

I see you've evolved your dehumanization to "FAGAs", well done. Personally, I think it's sad that we used to honor heroes with statues, and now we've moved on to an amorphous fat braless black woman. It's just part of the death by a thousand cuts that your leftist masters are pushing on us. You don't care though.

Never heard of it, but the trailer looks good.

He wasn't trying to hide a napkin.

“confronts preconceived notions of identity and representation” is code for "a fat braless black lady who checks multiple boxes on the intersectional scale."

I thought we weren't allowed to say "thug" any more. It conjures up thoughts of rrrrrracism and all. It's so hard to keep current on the microaggression rules. Anyway, to your point, I would expect a person like yourself who more or less favors open borders to not be a fan of Homan. He also has a, how should I say, in your face personality that I would guess doesn't work well with you. I can't speak to the people under Homan and where they fit on the thuggery spectrum.

Amen.

Nah, I'm good with hyperbole. You called an entire government department lying thugs. I really don't think you have any concept what hyperbole means.

They should totally do this.

Shockingly, more hyperbole. You're tugging your ear, Teddy.

Like Teddy KGB in Rounders (John Malkovich), when you have nothing, you have a tell. And your tell is ridiculous hyperbole. I've bolded some examples, and I won't bother explaining them, because they are farcical on their face. You aren't a serious poster, on this topic anyway. You are clowning yourself.

Looking forward to the draft, I've missed it the past month or so.

This is the first of what may be several threads on my thoughts about cultural existential threats facing our nation, depending on how it goes and how much stuff gets swept under this topic. Marxism and Moral Relativism: Definitions of Marxism abound; for our purposes, I'll call it the support of the worker class over the ownership class, or the oppressed over the oppressors from an economic standpoint. Marxism also supports moral relativism: https://www.google.com/search?q=marxist+moral+relativism&sca_esv=4771c1dce5b9df5f&sxsrf=ADLYWIKmN0GtIzO1s5LmuDWRPAuBlaa9Uw%3A1715614907871&ei=uzRCZqHzNMT1kPIPr5iD8AY&oq=marxism+and+moral+rela&gs_lp=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&sclient=gws-wiz-serp For most of its existence, Marxism and economics were closely intertwined. But in recent history, we have seen the tenets of Marxism extended to other areas. - BLM and anti-racism are racial Marxism, where the oppressed are black people. We are led to believe that white people (the oppressors) are inherently racist, as are all systems developed by the oppressors. Biden's administration has enacted many policies supporting this. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/10/19/fact-sheet-the-biden-harris-administration-advances-equity-and-opportunity-for-black-people-and-communities-across-the-country/ - The allowance of biological men into women's safe spaces and sports is sexual Marxism. It places the needs of the oppressed (the men) over the needs of the oppressors (cis women). Biden's recent Title 9 changes show clear support of this. - The support of Palestinians over Israel is... terrorist Marxism? religious Marxism? Obviously the Palestinians are the oppressed in this model. We see Biden's support for Israel waning in deference to the Islamic State of Dearborn. I do not believe in moral relativism; I believe there are some moral absolutes. But you need moral relativism to defend men in women's prisons, or woman-raping child-burning terrorists. Existential Threat: I do not believe that a nation can survive in the long term on a backbone of moral relativism. While the above specific issues are not likely to cause the demise of our nation, they are part of a clear pattern and trajectory towards increasing relativism. What is the American Way? Is life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness good? How about the American Dream, that any person through hard work can achieve his/her goals? Is that good? We seem to be increasingly celebrating people for being on an intersectional scale more than people who achieve great things. Anyway, I've typed enough for now. I look forward to @BeachGuy23responding with a grammatically challenged one-liner, but hopefully this can generate some discussion among intelligent folks.

I'm reading that he's kinda centrist, by Church standards anyway. He doesn't seem to be a fan of rainbow folks, for instance.

I technically live in Phoenix, but it's an area south of South Mountain called Ahwatukee. Go to Tempe and Scottsdale all the time, tho. Yeah, that Tortilla Flat drive past the smaller lakes is beautiful, but gets small and rocky fast.

Make the Papacy Great Again!

Cardinal Prevost is Pope Leo 14. 'murcan, that's all I know. Not a betting favorite.

Yep, still here.

I had a WoW beer at the DBacks/Mets game yesterday. It's a wheat beer from Four Peaks, our biggest local microbrewery until they were bought by Anheuser Busch. https://www.frysfood.com/p/four-peaks-the-joy-bus-wow-wheat-beer/0081535101421?fulfillment=PICKUP&storecode=66000101&&cid=shp_adw_shopl_.FY25.01_search_ent_awar.all_allent.lia_corelia_frys.t2_g_lia_shop_all_na_adultbeverage_all_rev_roas_sf_ma%23%23%23%23%23%23%23%23%23&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20722071781&gclid=Cj0KCQjwrPHABhCIARIsAFW2XBP92T3WvQARj3XK9xoPVVQxtqRuerBUACCGX9-fgrVoZ2k1K3hxPKMaAuU8EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds Also good to see you, Megla.

After years of delays, today is the day you start needing a REAL ID to get through airport security (or a passport or other approved ID). Old state DLs no longer work. https://www.travel.dod.mil/About/News/Article/article/4061839/real-id-required-for-us-travelers-beginning-may-7-2025/#:~:text=As of May 7%2C 2025,identification to board commercial flights. I've heard that DMVs are a shiot show with people trying to get them. I imagine the airports will be a mess as well. Happy traveling!

Of course he isn't trustworthy. He lied about everything, especially things that didn't directly affect him. That helped him stay under the radar Garcia however is impeccable. He has no reason to lie.

Ok
