They may occasionally indulge in some festive libations, by and by.

The book of Daniel lays out what the anti-christ will do and how he will behave. It describes Trump perfectly.

Republicans have to be continually humiliated in front of the nation. That is the only thing that will work, and that is all that they will listen to (other than outright brutality). Utter and complete humiliation every day.

Dems as a party won’t do it because they a) fear losing imaginary “centrist” voters, and b) don’t actually want to be in power anyway, since they can fundraise more when they are in the opposition.

If I ever win the Powerball, I’m going to disappear, and spend my time hunting poachers and rainforest loggers.

Orion does it now too.

They live mostly on gels and polymers I think.

Sounds like you’re complaining about the free market. People don’t like something that was unearthed about someone, so they don’t support them.

Hasn’t been my experience

I’ve given up on going to outdoor concerts because of that smell.

IATSE isn’t part of the strike. Most likely because AMPTP would find a way to make American Gladiators with non-union labor, which would be a body blow to the union.

If you’re IATSE, you’re working right now, because the union isn’t on strike.

Hopefully Debian or LMDE. Canonical is becoming a mini-Microsoft.

Yeah the CIA doesn’t like any of that too much.

…and head to bed for me.

Hundreds of years ago, Christianity inspired some truly incredible music. Bach’s BWV 63 (especially the Gardiner recording) is a miracle.

Contemporary Christian music, though, is probably the falling domino that ultimately led to the realization that my Christianity was just tribalism. Modern American Christian “culture” has no redeeming value, other than its lucrative redemption for fiat currency.

I do love visiting cathedrals, though.

Kotor, Montenegro is the most beautiful place I’d ever been to that I’d never heard of. The whole Aegean Sea is incredible.

Edit: Meant “Adriatic” Sea.

If you see someone go overboard, get someone else to start throwing stuff off the deck to where they are in the water (while you keep pointing at them). Makes for much easier locating by others, and a quicker rescue

As long as you have no oil, there’s no reason to fear us.

Nah. Democrats protest, Republicans vote. Funny how one of those groups wields a grossly exaggerated amount of political power.

How would that prevent you from being a conservative?
