  • On Friday, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson said he plans to request that the ethics panel does not release its report, saying that because Gaetz is no longer in Congress doing so would be a “terrible breach of protocol.”

    This is the best part of the article, where Mike Johnson, a big supporter of the man who is all about breaking norms, all of a sudden cares about “breaches of protocol,” especially in a case where the guy obvious left congress to hide it, likely because he knew he was going to be tapped for this position.


  • This is the beauty of being a conspiracy theorist, it gives you free reign to believe anything you want.

    Evidence comes out that someone you support has done something bad? “It’s a set up and/or manufactured! Where’s the proof!?” Same evidence comes out that someone you oppose has done something bad? “See! I told you so. When will people start listening to me!?! Of course it’s real because I think they are running defense for this person.” No evidence evidence exists for your theory? “((They)) are very good at hiding it!” Evidence that kind-of-sort-of-almost-supports-your-claim-if-you-look-at-it-at-just-the-right-angle-in-just-the-right-light (but not really, it just is vaguely similar) supports something you said earlier. “HA! i told you.”

    You can always view/ignore the facts in such a way to confirm your position, if the facts are secondary to the narrative.








  • Oh, I went full Jesus during the pandemic, with long hair and let my beard grow out. . .and it just never made up for the fact that I have literal bald patches throughout it. . .I almost needed a comb over on my beard it was so pathetic.

    That, and I have seborrheic dermatitis, and growing a beard makes it flair up and it seems the only way to get rid of it is for me to shave when it happens. And then I just have a red face which is no good.

    Better for me to just stay clean shaven. lol

    It’s expensive up front, but I switched to a leaf razor years ago i just had buy a new pack of 100 razors for 19 bucks. I use 3 at a time, but they last a long time.

    They last a long time, are cheaper, I get a better shave (especially since moving to a puck and horsehair brush), and I don’t generate nearly any plastic trash.

    I can’t recommend moving over enough.


  • Considering plenty of women voted for trump, and this protest is only directed at men, it seems there is a very large exception being made there.

    If they said “none of the 4bs with any trump supporter regardless of sex,” that would be done without exception. But that’s not what is happening. It’s all men, regardless of their support for Trump. They are excepting guilty people, while including innocent people.

    And, sure, if I supported their misandric protest, I should be expected to have a reciprocal sacrifice. However, considering their protest is irrationally targeting me because of my sex, I’m not really hot on “doing my part” for something I vehemently disagree with.
