Drugs I still haven’t done, will update the ranking once that has been achieved:

DMT, mescaline, PCP, salvia, crack, opium, ketamine, other shit I’m too high to remember.

May I suggest extremely strongly, that you do not try any of unranked drugs and never again try the drugs that you do have ranked? There’re illegal(with the exception of marijuana which illegal in some places but not all) and unhealthy and addictive.

She’s a moron.

guys, Punxsutawney Phil is a he.

btw, Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow yesterday, six more weeks of winter.

I would advise talking to Darth Ender about this, he is Mormon and knows a lot about the church. Perhaps you could PM him?

I so miss the ordinary typical simple conversations I had with my father. Every time I see something that I know both of us would have had a good laugh about, it saddens me, because I can’t share it with him anymore. It is another reminder that he isn’t here anymore.

http://www.commondreams.org/news/2017/01/19/never-seen-anything-gaping-holes-trumps-foreign-policy-team

Many aspects of President-elect Donald Trump’s transition have been described as disorganized (at best), but his administration’s approach to foreign policy “appears” particularly rudderless, raising concerns among domestic experts and international allies alike.

The defining part of the article is the quoted word above … “appears”, and that is an opinion, not fact. LOL

ok, i can respect your point that you should work to make things better (from your previous post, not this one). but what i don’t respect is your constant brushing aside of every piece of information as being opinion, and not fact. the opinion of the matter is, that almost all information that is out there is not fact. if you can’t deal with finding the shadow of the facts by sifting through and weighing opinions, then I don’t know… ? i don’t know.

When the entire opinion is presented as fact, especially from someone that is supposed to be intelligent, I don’t know what to tell you. Opinions are like elbows, we all have them, it just doesn’t make them fact. I am totally okay with people not liking the guy, but we are supposed to be debating, not using our emotions to say that we are right and the rest of you are wrong. It’s wasted breath really.

And this is exactly the tripe I’m talking about.

And that is your opinion which you have a right to, as do I, and mine was opinion as well. You need to try harder because copying people just to try and be funny or something really isn’t your forte.

^ backdoor insult?

I don’t know why everyone is making jokes over something that will destroy every aspect of our lives.

Because nothing matters anymore. At least we want to be destroyed happy.

Happiness was destroyed forever when Donald Trump became president.

I am beyond depressed and everyone refuses to listen to me.

People actually did interact with you seriously when you were acting like a normal person. Now that you’re back to being crazy, rude, insane, and making light of the holocaust, people are right back to responding to you like you’re a madman.

Let’s get one thing straight. When I make a comment referencing the holocaust, I am never making light of it.

I believe we are repeating the horrors of nazi Germany under Donald Trump; I would post this in the politics thread, but you were ups ban me for making hyperbolic comments that in my opinion are close to the truth. You have defined me as an insane, rude, and insensitive person when in reality we are entering the end times. Even if we survive Trump, it’ll be too late to save human civilization because we will have hit the tipping point for climate change. Even if every person believed 100 percent that global warming is real by 2025, there is absolutely nothing we can do to stop human extinction, along with nearly all plant and animal life.

This is the worst era in history, EVER, and I am dead serious right now.

Let’s just say you were 100% right. What would you like us to do about it? You’ve said none of us are helping you. What does helping you entail? Do you just need to vent?

It just wasn’t supposed to end up like this.

Yes it was, time is fixed, the future is inevitable, I have nothing to look forward to in life other than the next few Star Wars movies, my best days are behind me…

Wait, suddenly I’m being serious. Help!

This is not a fucking joke. Nobody cares that I’m in pain right now. I will never heal again, or ever experience happiness. But no, all people ever do just dismiss my feelings as “trolling,” and don’t even give the time of day.

perhaps you need the help of a shrink. I am serious about that and mean no offense.

I’d bet all of us might need the help of a shrink but I’m not qualified to make that determination or post it in a forum to another member that I know little to nothing about.

😦

1. quit the damn lecturing, I’m sick of it.
2. “perhaps” is not the same as making a determination.

Jetrell Fo said:

^^^From the article …

Trump told the folks at Axios, a freshly launched news site, that he prefers his intelligence briefings short and to the point.

“I like bullets or I like as little as possible,” he said in an interview published on the site. “I don’t need, you know, 200-page reports on something that can be handled on a page. That I can tell you.”

This does not imply what you are assuming.

TV’s Frink said:

Jesus Christ.

I can hear certain people already saying that you can’t believe these reports without having been there in person, but given that Trump has regularly refused to be bothered by intelligence briefings, and given that he both has zero experience in governing and has shown no interest in gaining experience, these reports are entirely believable.

If you were part of the administration and there, I’d buy this entirely believable thing, but since you’re not I don’t. You have nothing to show he is refusing intelligence briefings at this time and until you do I take this as only your opinion, nothing more.

how long will you hold a candle for Trump?

It has nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with fact vs. fiction.

yeah, right, sure, uhuh.

The Democrats are not doing well, they didn’t show up to the hearings for Trump’s nominees so the committee rules were suspended to allow them to continue without the party, and now the Senate will revoke the filibuster for the Supreme Court nomination.

If Dems continue to be a no-show, we’ll effectively end up in a one-party system fast.

I just remember Dominic saying that it was only the Republican’s who were making it all about “sides” and I did not agree. I certainly don’t relish being right at least some of the time but it’s been more than obvious that it is happening. People fear change but change is here and we either go down complaining or we find a way to make it positive for everyone as best we can.

Why do I even bother

We also both did agree that it should not be this way but it is. And you’re not like Frink so don’t let him drag you down. 😉

Nah, everyone is allowed to say whatever they want as long as they use a winky or say LOL.

So I could have made the post a couple of pages ago that Jetrell complained about if I had just added a winky?

Your post made me think this had happened but at this point it’s not even clear if the Dems will force it, let alone if the the Repubs will follow through with it.

Sorry if that was unclear, but I think it’s almost a certainty. Trump has endorsed they do this, giving them any justification they need. Seeing as they essentially did the same thing in the less-formal committee, I don’t see why they wouldn’t go through with it in the Senate if they could.

Trump Says ‘Go Nuclear’ as Democrats Gird for Gorsuch Fight
President Trump, seeming to relish a fight with Democrats over his nominee to the Supreme Court, encouraged the Senate majority leader, Mitch McConnell, on Wednesday to invoke the so-called nuclear option and abandon the 60-vote threshold for confirmation.

“If we end up with that gridlock, I would say, ‘If you can, Mitch, go nuclear,’” the president said.

Democrats are weighing strategies for opposing the nomination of Judge Neil M. Gorsuch and debating how aggressively to pursue a battle over a seat that many of them believe was stolen from their party.
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/01/us/politics/neil-gorsuch-supreme-court-trump.html

well for thing, it might bite them in the butt if the Dems gain a majority in the Senate. Think about what would have happened under Obama if the Republicans couldn’t filibuster.

If they do get rid of the filibuster, I it is time for all out war(not violent or the illegal kind). The Dems should block/disrupt/refuse to cooperate/fight the GOP in every way shape and form possible at all levels of government. This includes state and local level. They should also look into a possible constitutional convention. This pisses me off. After all the filibustering the GOP did during the Obama years and now they have the nerve to get rid of it now that the shoe is on the other foot.

*sigh* I don’t know what to say.

Or moved to the other side of the street when I passed them. Or called me racial slurs. Or if their news was constantly calling my people terrorists, or drains on society, or unMiddle-Eastern, I might start to wonder if maybe I wasn’t welcome. Maybe over time I’d start to resent and hate them. Maybe I’d meet other American refugees with similar experiences who believed more radical things than I did and I’d start listening to them.

You should have added “or if a candidate for leadership in said country talked about banning people like you from entering the country and then that candidate won the election”

There is no logical explanation that would make this a positive reason to become a terrorist.

😦

Did you read what Tyrphanax wrote?

I’ve stated this before and I will state it again. Here is how I would change the electoral College:

1. switch from electoral votes to points
2. divide the number of electoral votes in a state by the number of people that voted in the state. Call the number X.
3. multiple the number of votes each candidate received in the state to get the number of electoral points awarded to each candidate.
