Grabbed this on Monday, got it delivered yesterday morning. Been trying to figure it out and configure it out ever since. I paid under 2k for the unit I purchased.
As a broke dick dawg, (and an older one at that) it's hopefully the last television set I throw money at.
But then...I'm addicted to new tech like I am to tight, wet pussy - so....if something better comes plopping out in the next few years. I'll prolly suck it down and bite off another chew. This set kicks ass, visually.

New jeans. Oh, the excitement.
I bought 6 pair of those last week. 1st Jeans (yes, I capitalize the important words) I've purchased new since the late 1990s. I loves me some denim.
Six days ago. Fucked a MILF in a closet, in her McMansion, who was probably closer to a GILF. I am a DILF, without the dad part. But then again, who's counting.
Love and Rockets... 1989 - the extended dance version. It'll hook ya.
RFK junior has quite the roster of backers. Mostly grifters and predatory opportunists backing the idiot son of a true patriot and statesman. All he brings to the party is his famous surname.
The too long to read, brief: Multitudes are joining up and backing RFK Jr - who also financially donate to Trump's candidacy. And they are a laundry list of opportunistic status climbers, hangers on and predators seeking influence.
JFK junior is dragging the corpses of JFK, RFK and his uncle Ted, through the streets of MAGAville, spewing stupid thoughts, incoherent plans, bald faced lies about easily debunked topics. Acting and appearing all patriotic and shit - for those cultists who have zero idea of what patriotism actually looks like.

Thanks; that is right. i have a grandson who is eighteen, autistic, homeschooled because of autism, and transgender.
it makes you think when you read about the anti trans/gay/ lesbian/ movement and you know you have one who is at risk in the real world.
I like this - I must admit, I failed to check this out in August of last year. I've since read and re-read this poem, half a dozen times since the 1st of this year. It resonates with me. I'm reminded of the multi-cultural blend of my family.
I have met and made friends with people, my age or older/younger - over the last decade who all are targets (because of the blends of their families or because of their own lifestyle decisions) of the MAGA movement and the degenerates who dominate that Nationalistic flavor of the mid 2000s Tea Party.
I live in the rural boondocks of Missouri - a purpling state, which turned over in the 1998 election cycle from a predominantly Blue state for many decades to a seething red state of MAGA influence. In many ways, Missouri has mirrored the state of Texas, as both states have devolved & slid into their current political iterations.
Both states are in need of a revolt and sanitizing cleansing at the ballot boxes this November.
I want my family and friends and their families to not live with troubling concerns about their physical safety and/or mental/emotional sanity for the rest of their lives. I wish to extinguish the mental targets they all feel upon themselves. Daily.
Excellent reminder, Keylime ~ Thank you.

Yours is one of the more intelligent comments. You are right; inclusivity doesn't need to be included in every commercial, but as there are different commercials (with the same style, you think they would put a man in some versions. There are other examples; in a Carvana ad, the woman is clearly hen-pecking her husband; in Expedia travel ads, it is almost always young women off having adventures; Spectrum ran an ad for a long where the man has picked the wrong cable company. In a PSA on Autism, a female voiceover depicts mostly women/girls struggling with Autism, although Autism is more common in boys. If a financial company depicts a shady (remember Schwab ads with "Carl") character, the shady character is a man. This list goes one.
Perhaps you're wasting your life away by watching too much television. I don't remember any of these commercials you mention.
https://globalextremism.org/post/project-2025-march-27th-update/
Project 2025 is a 920-page plan, spearheaded by the powerful and extreme far-right Heritage Foundation. This blueprint for autocracy is supported by more than 100 organizations.
Their stated goal is to create an “ideal” America that would see women, LGBTQ+ people, immigrants, people of color, and others deprived of their hard-won constitutional rights and the erosion of environmental and education protections.
It also advocates for a frightening centralization of power in the executive branch.
Rooted in hate and Christian Nationalism, the plan promises to “rescue the country.”
Columnist Amanda Marcotte, in an op-ed published by Salon Thursday, said she believes the announcement was a "not-at-all subtle message" that Trump "doesn't believe any of this faith-in-God crap, but he definitely believes in using Christian identity as a weapon to make money and dominate his foes."
Marcotte argues that Trump supporters who identify as Christian will not find the Trump brand Bible offensive, since it signals that they can have the "Christian" identity without the parts they don't like.
"No boring church services or Bible study. No tedious talk about 'compassion' and 'grace,' which only gets in the way of the gay-bashing and racism," Marcotte wrote. "And definitely no need to worry about that Jesus guy, with all his notions about 'loving thy neighbor' and 'welcoming the stranger.'"
According to Marcotte, Trump-supporting Christians have replaced God with Trump himself — which she says is a lot more fun since Trump's message is "kick thy neighbor" and "build the wall."
Marcotte has such little faith in the Christian bonafides of Trump supporters that she argued the pages of the Trump Bible could be blank and they wouldn't even know it.
"In the right-wing publishing industry, books are not made to be read. They are to be displayed on your shelves, unopened, so you can glance at them and feel that somewhere, a liberal is 'owned.'" she writes.

Because the major election cycles are the only times they get any press.
So, admittedly - when it's done during Presidential election years - it's simply a protest stoked by Republicans who hope to influence undecideds and swing voters - the ultimate flip floppers.
Ego maniacs and imbeciles like RFK Jr don't even qualify as Democrats by the time they decide to pitch a tent on the nomination trail, otherwise - no Democrats would ever cast a vote for Mr or Mrs X - the 3rd party candidate.
I'm good with protests, except when those protests go against intelligence and reason. Those tend to evolve into riots and insurrections and Patriots Saving America while battling the establishment and legally elected government they seek to protest.
How come it is we only hear the calls for establishing a viable 3rd party, during those every 4th year general election cycle for US Presidency.
How come we never see third party candidates make much of a splash during the primaries, during off year congressional elections?
Everything is cool with Rowan. It's either vote for Trumpism and chaos, or more Corporatocracy with Biden/Hillary/Obama/Bill (rinse wash rinse again)...
Just put up with 5 years of the same shit on the other side of the coin. Crysis' coins. Until the multiple personality fuckwad was banned.
I reckon we can put up with 5 years of your lameness, too.
Are Americans better off today (and this entire year) than we were 4 years ago?

March 2020 was the month when things went to hell here in the United States. On March 5th there were 129 known cases and only 11 deaths in the US: just 33 days later, hospitals were using refrigerated trucks as morgues and over 10,000 Americans were dead of Covid.
Fear ran through communities and stalked our homes. We were washing our groceries with bleach after picking them up at the store’s parking lot from people wearing masks, goggles, and gloves. We bought up all the air filters in the country. We worked from home when we could. We isolated ourselves from other people as much as was humanly possible.
Within those few weeks in March and early April, serious Covid outbreaks were showing up across the Northeast and Trump — who had two years earlier shut down both of the two federal pandemic task forces Obama had put into place after the Ebola scare — charged his son-in-law, nepo-baby slumlord Jared Kushner, with responding to the crisis.
Trump put medical doctors on TV daily, the media was freaking out about refrigerated trucks carrying bodies away from New York hospitals, and doctors and nurses were our new national heroes.
By March 7th, US deaths had risen from 4 to only 22, but that was enough to spur federal action. Trump’s official emergency declaration came on March 13th, and most of the country shut down during the following week.
The skies and highways fell silent, the Dow collapsed, and millions of Americans were laid off — but saving lives was, after all, the number one consideration.
Trump is batting 1000% - the FEC says he can do whatever he wants, no matter how 'unethical or illegal'. The Republicans in charge at the FEC are protecting their interests and not the public welfare.
Think about how much information (complicit and criminal) was deleted by all the 'official Trump government' agencies when those agencies authorized the deletion of text messages recorded on official government supplied smart phones.
Then tell us all how there was no active conspiracy afoot on January 6, 2021.
Quote by RowanThorn
Ultimately maybe the Democrats need to give voters something to believe in, Instead their only pitch is, ‘not trump.’ Just like Al Gore lost with his, ‘Not Bush’ campaign.
If the president has 30% approval ratings don’t put him up for reelection. You cannot win this way.
Al Gore didn't lose.
The GOP stacked SCOTUS of that particular year - stopped the counting and declared Bush the winner.
And Gore didn't attempt an insurrection to hold onto power.
Come'on Mr Progressive Revisionist...your fibs are transparent.

Yeah, Biden’s angry old man rant really drove home the whole point of the matter. The Democrats had spent the primary season quashing and burying any opposition to Biden’s re-election rather than finding a suitable substitute.
Imagine how much better the optics would be politically if he had announced he will step down due to his older age. He could head into the sunset with a decent economic track record (so long as your the small % of wealthy Americans who benefit from things like inflated stock prices or an out of control housing market). The republicans are in chaos looking bad as hell killing their own bills and unable to pass shit with a majority.
It would have been a really nice set up for a new candidate. Instead he’s proving all the rhetoric about his age and mental fitness. He’s heading in with a scandal. He’ll drag the whole ticket and hand Trump an easy victory. It was a self indulgent move for the Dems to push forward with their senile meat puppet and it is going to lead to absolute chaos.

Since Infowars content is viewable wherever people have Internet, including New York, this state’s consumer-protection laws apply. “Whenever there’s heightened fear and hysteria, we start to see scammers,” Letitia James, New York’s attorney general, said recently.
“We see stores around Brooklyn selling hand sanitizer for eighty dollars a bottle. We see people setting up fake charities—phishing attempts, essentially. We see medical scams—Web sites that have a magic cure. We have a responsibility to take action against anything that is putting New Yorkers in danger.”
James instructed Lisa Landau, the chief of her office’s health-care bureau, to send Jones a cease-and-desist letter. In a footnote, Landau acknowledged that the Infowars site did include some vague verbiage disclaiming liability, but that its “miniscule font size makes it unlikely that potential customers will read or even see the disclaimer.”
Days later, a new disclaimer appeared, this one in a non-minuscule font: “The products sold on this site are not intended for use in the cure, treatment, prevention, or mitigation of any disease, including the novel coronavirus.”
Near the disclaimer, however, was a link to products such as a “Build the Wall, Protect Texas” T-shirt, George Washington socks (“We need to broadcast true Americana everywhere we go to shut down globalist censorship”), and bottles of ABL Nano Silver Gargle (sold out, wait list available).
Joe Biden (aka Brandon) speaks with 5 actors (who portrayed a US President in some series or movie) prior to his State of the Union 2024 speech. More than simply entertaining. Now, imagine Trump ever doing something like this.
Where else in the world does this kind of shit occur on a frequent basis? A M E R I C A leads by a fair margin.

It’s not the first time a Christian boarding school in Missouri has come under fire for alleged bad behavior. In the past several years, there have been investigations into the “Circle of Hope Girls’ Ranch and Boarding School” and Agape Boarding School in the same state.
A lot of this happens because religious boarding schools in Missouri are largely unregulated, relying on their religious label to win the trust of unsuspecting families. These facilities assure parents their troublesome teenagers will receive a much-needed, faith-based rehabilitation if they simply hand over custody and pay a hefty fee. Instead of making things better, though, the Christian ranches often become a hotbed of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse that leave the kids far worse off than when they entered.
Quote by Buz
Wendy's should go back to the basics, offer best possible product, with great service, and at a very competitive price.
I ate at a Wendy's in Colorado Springs in...the mid 1970s, out of necessity. Less than 2 hours later, I was vomiting chunks (through my nostrils) of whatever crap it was I ingested earlier (and I was literally starving at that time) - my father was driving, he and I and my two brothers were launching our 1st annual (and only time) Rocky Mountain vacation, in the 1975 Cordoba (with Corinthian leather) while pulling a pop-up PUMA tent camper up to 9500 ft above sea level. Mom had the good sense to stay home, alone (maybe) for the next two weeks.
I've never stopped at or ordered Wendy's slop again. Some places, people just shouldn't eat at. Wendy's is one of those dumps.
