    Gas Bandit's Political Thread V: The Vampire Likes Bats

    How strange! Usually law enforcement is quick to snatch up illegal immigrant families. I wonder what’s different about this case?

    [TV] Talk about the last TV you watched, the catchall thread

    I always hated Endgame's plot. The 5 year jump and restoration was a stupid fucking idea that caused more problems than it solved. The Russos and their writing staff didn't think at all about any other stories, or the MCU really. They just wanted to have a big impact, like little kids smashing...

    Random Video Game Crap

    I think most people really do play a game thoroughly when they like it. But I think the dorks that briefly play a game without really getting into it, all so they can blather on about it on Twitter, are more visible. They stand out in our attention, so it feels like there’s more of them.

    I like this, a lot. But I find that merely existing is enough to embarrass my daughter.

    Around the start of Covid, 2020 or so. As a teacher it went from non-existent to EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME in the blink of an eye.

    Is income inequality unjust, and if so, where is the injustice?

    I teach at high school in a well-to-do district filled with the children of tech workers, executives, and entrepreneurs. Most of these kids brag about getting BMWs for their birthday. They're wealthy, though not mega wealthy (think parents with high six figure yearly incomes, but not...

    The Cowboys offense can’t beat them if they let the Cowboys defense and special teams score all the points.

    That's the point of the Senate. All states are treated equal, regardless of population size. Meanwhile, the House gives power to bigger states over the smaller ones. Then the two have to agree, and that's how things are balanced.

    Former President Trump Thread

    That man couldn't shoot a 67 at the local mini-golf course. There would be a windmill hole and he'd complain about it causing cancer.

    No, because it’s still originating in the Atlantic? Maybe?

    Former President Trump Thread

    They are considering scheduling around his campaign because approximately 40% of this country falsely believes that all of the charges are a political witch hunt orchestrated by the “Biden Crime Family” to sabotage the only True Good Republican, our lord and savior Donald Trump. If the trial...

    While watching the local school board meeting I see we have gotten a visit from the “Moms for Liberty” assholes. They are losing their shit because our board is planning to recognize various months for awareness, such as Pride Month in June or Hispanic Heritage month. I genuinely hate these...

    The Random Crap Thread 2: It Hits the Fan.

    School is starting up again! Teachers and staff at my school just got a safety briefing on what to do in case of an active shooter. Our presenter cited three historical events for “inspiration:” 1) The Spartans at Thermopylae (showed via images from Zach Snyder’s 300) 2) The people who banded...

    [Rant] Minor Rant III: For a Few Hollers More

    To be fair to her, she made it clear that she really didn’t want to, but would still come help if I really wanted her to. So I just let her off the hook, because I don’t feel like dragging her there and having her half-heartedly help (knowing the whole time she was miserable about it).

    [Rant] Minor Rant III: For a Few Hollers More

    Since I’m a teacher I have the summer off. For the last two months I have dutifully driven my daughter from camp to activity to whatever social activity with her friends. I have cooked all dinners on weekdays while my wife works. I have completed an huge number of tasks on our to-do list around...

    Do you want Resident Evil to be real? Because that’s how you get Resident Evil in real life. Maybe not zombies, exactly, but rogue companies making hazardous diseases for profit.
