The Frankish Reich

The dreaded shart.

Boring. Was watching without sound for a while during a phone call. Walz looks a little scared, but much better than at the start. Vance calm, but Walz kind of dominating the time of possession from my impression.

Well, you did mention it. 4 games. Averaging about 50% of snaps. 5 targets. 3 catches. 30 yards. Awful signing.

I hope it wasn't his carrot waxing hand.

I have family in Prescott AZ. similar to Sedona climate-wise, but probably more affordable and some more consumer amenities. Great place. We also have friends who retired near Clemson SC. They seem to love it.

Ray Epps!

Im old enough to remember when @B-Man quoted Pizzagate Jack saying that natural disasters in California were evidence of God’s wrath. Funny, Florida seems to be leading in the Wrath of God contest.

My totally unbiased and scientific opinion: Harris: probably an IQ around 120-125. Not particularly high for a lawyer, but she did pass the California bar exam (2nd try but California was a tough exam back then) was by any account I’ve seen a generally competent practicing prosecutor. I would have a better idea if she’d written anything of substance. This is a pretty average score for lawyers and I see no reason to assume greater or lesser intelligence. Trump: around 100-110. The best information we have is that he was a lackluster student who probably didn’t have good grades and almost certainly had a poor SAT score (which correlates highly with IQ) since he didn’t get into any kind of elite/competitive college; he went to Fordham and then transferred to Penn (itself the weakest Ivy at the the time), apparently with some family assistance. we have no post-grad testing (LSAT/bar exam/GRE) to go by. Most college grads are above average in IQ, but against that we have many of his coworkers casting aspersions on his intellect. We’ve also seen little written product by him (ghostwriters don’t count), and really no reason to estimate him as anything more than a slightly above average intelligence. Clearly he is a gifted salesman, but salesmen typically fall well within the average range.

True. The other stuff was forgivable. The list that dare not speak its name, not so much. Spanky McFapfap, it was good knowing you. I doubt we’ll be replacing any MLK statues with your likeness.

Yeah it’s just like Michaelangelo’s David. If David and Goliath did soft porn together.

In part. It appears to be a consequence of the intersection of monetary (low interest rates) and fiscal (huge spending) factors. The best study I've seen attributes about 30% of the inflation to the huge spending bills. Correct. You beat me to it.

EDGY HUMOR TRIGGER ALERT. JDHillFan is warned. This guy is also so incredibly stupid that he used the same username - a variant of his real name - across all kinds of platforms, from the legitimate to the sketchiest. And Trump called him MLK on steroids. Did MLK like chicks with d!cks too? Or is that the "on steroids" part?

Beane/McD have drafted really well. That (including Allen) is the main reason why "the process" has worked, and continues to work. Remember, the process was about building a perennial contender, not a team with a short window of opportunity followed by another rebuild.

I'm impressed, RFK Jr! You've still got game. Meanwhile, how's the Alt Media vs. Mainstream Media scorecard looking on Springfield Cat Eating? Miss Sassy wants to know

We are moving toward the 2% target. "full employment" has generally been considered to be an unemployment rate of 4% or lower. Win.

Keep trying, buddy. Your Party of the Stupid just nominated another freak.

It was a good one. Edgy. Thank you.

Yeah, your porn addict MAGA king is going down. And I don’t mean on a tranny. At least not this time.

Can’t make this ***** up. Not only is he a self-admitted “perv”; he also likes tranny sex. Not at all weird.

First slut.

Someone explain this to me. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/18/us/politics/melania-trump-nude-modeling.html The former first lady called her past work a “celebration of the human form” in a video, the latest in a series promoting her memoir and appearing to reflect her deeply held beliefs.
