      Yes, but thanks to the electoral college it doesn’t mean much. State hasn’t gone red since 88, and we’re on the higher side of population:EC ratio.

        “I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,” Trump told New York Magazine that year for a story headlined “Jeffrey Epstein: International Moneyman of Mystery.” “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”

      Does anyone actually care if they are called a “beta male”? It’s such an incel insult… And it’s used by very prominent Republicans on TV.

      It’s kind of hilarious. Like, tell me your an incel without telling me you’re an incell, Republicans.

        And a lot of the people they call ‘beta males’ are probably having a more active sex life than they are. I’m as unmanly as you get- I don’t like sports, I’m not into action movies or guns or knives or anything related to those things, people being loud and raucous make me highly anxious, I’m into all sorts of esoteric stuff when it comes to music and TV and film, I love nerd discussions and I cry when I’m sad. I may possibly even “cry liberal tears” in their worldview.

        And yet I’ve also been happily married for over 24 years.

        So I guess I’m cool with being a beta male.

        Edit: I forgot to add that I don’t like beer in my list of ‘ways I’m a beta male.’

          that I don’t like beer

          I was cool with everything up until this. This is where we part ways, Squid. Good day, sir! 😆

            I respect that.

            At least you’re not one of the ones who start listing types of beers that I will definitely like if I tried them without them understanding like this is saying “you just haven’t had the right kind of zucchini bread” even though my problem with zucchini bread is that you can’t make it without it having some sort of base zucchini taste.

    The Right: LGBT People groom children!

    Also The Right: Eh, the child consented so Trump isn’t REALLY a rapist.

      I just love the double standard

      “The queers are gonna molest your kids! That’s what all this sexuality talk is code for! Anyway, Donald Trump’s an alright dude, who doesn’t want to fuck their own daughter the minute they’re born?”

      Not to play grammar Nazi in a discussion about literal fascists, but I’m not sure “wanted” is the correct tense here.

      …or maybe you have a point - she’s not 13 anymore.

      In nature predators know to avoid anything that’s marked as poisonous in order to avoid ingesting something that will kill them. These creatures usually evolve these markings to avoid being eaten, so it’s mutually beneficial.

      It’s kinda like that… You don’t go near these guys because you don’t want anything this guy is selling, and they in turn have anyone who will ask them to have a single fucking thought in their god damn heads turn the other way. You wouldn’t want this guy to think would ya? Think of the headache that’d cause his poor atrophied brain…

    This tracks for Affton. It’s a county municipality of St Louis, MO well known for delightful barely-graduated-high-school hoosier antics. There is a good chance the truck floorboard is littered with empty airplane shots and scratch off lottery tickets.

        Yeah. Hoosier is used colloquially in St Louis to describe inconsiderate and trashy people. By ‘trashy’ I mean people who literally wallow in their own filth strewn properties or vehicles.

        Is it classist? Yes and I don’t care. I’m more of a progressive considerate redneck myself.

    From a purely practical perspective, why would you want to reduce your back window visibility in such a way anyways?

    They love their little acronyms and anagrams it’s quite weird. Also “numerlogy” aka summing and dividing the alphabetical values of words to conveniently make it spell 666 or w.e other codes they have
