Shut up Rowan

No.

Seems on theme. I’ve got pedophiles, rapists, and genocidal monsters on all my currency already.

I'll betcha Trump isn't re-elected, Rowan.

If I lose, (America loses), I'll abandon LushStories and you can stay here and revel in your glory.

When Biden wins a 2nd consecutive term (mostly because anyone with a working brain won't vote for the cocksucker) - you have to disappear from LushStories and never come back.

Platinum vs Platinum.

Wanna wager?

No, that’s stupid.

You have a lot more issues with me than I of you because I really don’t care to chase anyone off.

A good salty ham, pineapple, stack of cash, olives

What’s a fairly unique name you like?

So tin foil hat conspiracies are the Democrats understand that the next four years are going to be terrible politically. Stock market, housing market, and the gdp have been artificially pumped up for a while now and that can’t last forever. Also issues like the genocide America is sponsoring in Palestine is making ally’s abroad and citizen here angry. But the Dems get tons of funds from Israeli super pacs so they won’t fight it.

But if Trump wins they could sidestep blame and let it fall on him. Just a conspiracy theory making the rounds because Biden is such a terrible candidate and the campaign spending is almost non-existent compared to what it normally is this time of year so some people think they are just throwing the election.

Well, part 1 of my prediction is correct.

He’ll be found guilty on a number of accounts.

Sentencing will never happen, it will go to appeals court but after he’s re-elected President he’ll be immune to persecution for four years. If he makes it out of that time frame without succumbing to illness related to his incredibly unhealthy lifestyle I’ll be stunned. Either way he’ll never get a final conviction and he’ll never serve a single day in jail.

As a millennial who did not come from a rich family my current retirement plan is dying on the clock so my corpse is the business’s problem.

What was the last piece of true art you experienced?

I’m more interested in the movements of the ICC than our Supreme Court. Just put out an arrest warrant for Israel’s top brass for genocide.

America has countered with a resounding ‘ uh-uh’ and threatened the international courts with retaliation.

To your point the GOP got to pick the Supreme Court bench because the Democrats kept trying to leverage dying judges against voters to force their support.

Ginsburg was 87 and had been having close calls for years. She missed a number of important cases and no one called for her retirement. Instead it was used as an election issue in 2016 and low and behold they handed Trump the election and gave him full power to put in a new little god king of American law who cannot be removed for the next 50 years.

Supreme Court is ruling in a way that the other 3 criminal trials will not happen till after the election. This is the only one you’ll get. And polling is a sample that potentially reflects the whole.

But as the standard for Trump elections he outperforms the polls. Large issue here is his supporters are actually excited to vote for him and Biden’s are not. And that especially may be the case this year as early polling on young Americans is indicating you’ll see low turnout and a lot of third party voting. Biden’s handling of the Palestinian genocide and subsequent student protests has tanked his odds.

Young people are not willing to vote for a candidate that endorsed genocide and is actively looking to send more weapons for that purpose. Biden won the last election on the back of a progressive wave against Trump and he’ll lose this election for giving them nothing but death and poverty for their efforts.

Except, this happened last October and was extensively covered by all networks for a few days.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Lewiston_shootings

Well I ran a search on Steel Heather’s date of post. Wasn’t the bowling alley. It was a mass shooting that hurt 11 people in Georgia.

It was one of five public shooting incidents that weekend and 2 people were killed in Savanah alone. This didn’t hit any major headline cycle that day.

The 11 shot was an interesting occurrence in a dystopian sort of way. There was one shot, and a bunch of individuals pulled guns and didn’t know where it came from and started firing on each other. And this is exactly why open carry is such a terrible idea.

Quote by sprite

maine. 18 people in a bowling alley. just business as usual, sorry to say.

Damn, lack of headlines only in America. Where 18 people killed in a mass shooting doesn’t crack front page on any news network. Ick.

Latest polling for Biden is pretty dismal. Looks like a pretty bad for the Democrats as Trump is holding the popular vote as well. Not a majority, but the left base are spread out with other candidates.

Seems as though the ‘lesser of two evil’ arguments doesn’t resonate with the young generation when the lesser evil still pushes to fund a genocide.

Another note is the Biden campaign and the Democrats have a massive unspent war chest. Normally both parties are in full swing campaigning at this point and Biden is sitting it out.

Currently the most likely way to avoid another Trump presidency is if he dies of heart disease, because he’s not looking like he’ll be losing in a general election.

Quote by kistinspencil

Does that even rate a headline any more?

Apparently not. If she’s referring to something that happened in the past few days nothing was on the major news cycles.

Top 3 in no particular order:

28 Days Later: Running zombies, scary and tense, and an amazing ending with heavy notes of social messaging.

The Unit: Most obscure pick, a pitcher/catcher try and survive. Really an every man zombie story. Effects and camera are low budget but writing and end were spot on.

Fido: Kitchy 50’s American dream community with the catch that it exists within a zombie apocalypse and zombies are controlled by collars to be domestic servants. And one lonely boy develops a friendship with his zombie. Think Lassi meets zombies

Hobbit core!

I like that question, I’ll pass it forward.

Rowan is a sleeper. End.Of.Story.

Your sentence structure is awful.

Quote by LYFBUZ

Where is that stat from? I'd bet more than 10% of stock is owned by institutions such as insurance companies and pension funds. I never understand folks who bash the stock market; if you have even a basic understanding of math its pretty easy to avoid losing your shirt. And if there was no stock market where would companies get the funds to grow and expand and therefore provide millions of jobs?

Oh, you mean so they can collectively lower the wages of all workers, create shittier products with less competition, avoid paying taxes, funnel money to politicians, and keep the minimum wage from raising for 2 decades? Fuck that would be awful if that went away.

Quote by Magical_felix

The richest people on the planet can afford to hold during a crash, dummy. They actually buy up more when the price is low and get richer once the market corrects.

Look at what happened in 2020...

Wealth distribution? You really don't understand what the stock market is do you? Do you think a dollars worth of devaluation will now be redistributed to the poor? lol explain yourself

You’re under the impression that the stocks crash and then it’s business as usual after a few months. It’s a failed economy that holds no base in the reality of company performance.

The stock market needs to go away. When I say it crashes, it should not come back.

Quote by Magical_felix

Hoping for the entire stock market to crash is so idiotic. Maybe you should look up who got rich and who got fucked over when the stock market collapsed in 1929.

Well, 90% of all stock is owned by the richest 10%. The other 10% is owned by the richest 50-90 percentile.

So I know who would get fucked now. Also I only bank with federally insured credit unions so my money is protected.

So, the rich will lose their shirts and the poor are relatively safe as those federal insurances cap out after about 200k per account. So the stock market crashing will most dramatically impact the richest people who’s entire fortune is kept in the tax have that is the stock market. And since it’s overvalued anyway we’ll succeed in wealth distribution pretty much immediately.

Quote by LYFBUZ

I'm kind of surprised that DJT stock is not being investigated already for stock fraud. The share price is completely untethered from reality. I'm very curious to see how much cash the doofus gets to pocket before the stock is delisted.

If we investigated every company who’s share price isn’t tethered to reality the entire stock market would collapse… so let’s do that!

Over 300 years of an unelected lifetime god kings appointed by the richest and most powerful. The system never worked, it’s just slightly more apparent now that the internet has made them more visible.

I write them into one of my stories here. They're never seen again.

Can I burrow your death note sometime?

On subject, I spent 2 years as an overnight hotel cook mostly by myself with a lot of time to think. Getting rid of a body was a common subject to contemplate. Long story short, I can get about 10 meals out of a human body and what’s left to dispose of would be to much of a mush to be identified as human. Easily disposed of in the garbage.

I saw a clip of a woman working out and she was doing an elbow plank and soon she started apologizing to her past boyfriends saying ‘two minutes is a long time.’

Had me laughin’.

Undercover from the government, keeping tabs on ya pervs.

Quote by Vampire_vixen

I don't have a problem with surge pricing either. Capitalism at it finest. I simply won't partake if I notice. My brother worked at an upscale steakhouse. A dropped frozen steak was fair game for hockey if the boss wasn't around. After which it was brushed off and cooked. Again perfectly safe. They cooked them fully frozen, so nothing noticing would stick to it, and cooking kills any bacteria it might pick up. I assume this is common when you have teenage boys working in the kitchen.

Upscale steakhouse + frozen steaks… 😐

You know the Count from Sesame Street? Essentially that.

The acronym reminds of of The Kids Next Door.

I fully believe after some thorough senate grandstanding they’ll give Boeing a slew of government grants and the board of directors will give themselves a raise.
