“We are not garbage. We are taking out the garbage.”
That is as close to a perfect trolling as you are ever likely to get. Epic.
“We aren’t the garbage, we are recycling the American dream”
Talk about capitalizing on a moment.
Every news organization and democrat operative just spent the last 48 hours loudly proclaiming that calling people garbage is the worst, most heinous thing there is. And no, you don’t get to say it was just some comedian or that it was a joke… everyone who associates with you is your responsibility.
And then the president calls Trump and all of his supporters garbage. And not a joke.
So Trump gets off his plane in Milwaukee and hops in a MAGA garbage truck.
That is as deft a move as I have seen in my lifetime.

Yep. Donald Trump is an eighties-to-nineties era Democrat, except for the free trade issue, which has been traditionally a part of the Democrat Party platform.
Pro-abortion, pro-union, pro-FedGov largesse…
Hillary Clinton was an ideologue, but Bill never really was. He was adaptable to the situation, and made “conservative” decisions while billing them as Democrat ideas.
“Abortions should be safe, legal, and rare.”
He passed NAFTA (which isn’t truly free trade, granted, but was billed as lowering obstacles to trade).
He signed a massive capital gains tax cut that I think was part of why the Internet revolution was so successful.

I agree…. there is a huge political realignment underway. And it is global.
The establishment has become so entrenched at feeding from the public trough, they are detached from the people.
But they have all the power. Every institution is fully captured.
They are ever so close to closing the door on us and making Big Brother a reality.
I don’t know if it is too late. But if Harris wins, it is definitely too late.
So, the other day I microwaved a pile of chocolate chips, spooned some peanut butter on it, microwaved the whole thing some more, worked the melted chocolate over the peanut butter, and put it in the fridge.
Tasty, but hard as a rock.
I was looking up recipes for something similar, and the closest I could find is a three ingredient recipe—chocolate chips, peanut butter, and confectioner’s sugar.
I don’t see the sugar as necessary.
What I want is something to keep the melted-then-refrigerated chocolate from breaking one’s teeth, and I haven’t taken a cooking class to know this sort of stuff.
Would adding butter to the chocolate do anything? It seems like it would keep the chocolate relatively soft, but for all I know it would make the chocolate inedible.
Maybe refined coconut oil?
Speaking of which, I used some to make pan-cooked popcorn earlier, and it was delicious.

Chocolate seizes up as it comes back to room temp. What are you trying to do?
You put one pot with water in it on the stove, put a metal bowl in that pot and let the steam off the water gently heat the chocolate.
Just use an oven mitt to hold the bowl and you’re golden. You can use the same bowl to mix in your peanut butter and have the same amount of cleanup as the microwave with better results.

Trump joins the party

But this is the Dewey v Truman moment.
Trump is hilarious in this story, self-depricating…. totally comfortable with who he is. The contrast with Kamala could not be greater

Trump is really funny.
‘They told me to wear the vest. I said, I’m not wearing the vest. They said, sir, it makes you look thinner.
I said, I’m wearing the vest.
They got me.
Fucking brilliant
“The steps up there….shit” I mean..that reaches millions easily.
The dude is really a pro. I mean, that incident happened like an hour earlier and he managed to come up with a solid 5 minute bit about it that totally lands every beat and makes his point at the same time.
Very few people do that.
Saying “shit” on TV was the best part of that story. It was so totally natural and understandable.
News: “He can’t navigate the steps!” *ignoring the small steps the current president ascends*
Reality: “Damn, Ive been there…”
Meanwhile, Nora O’Donnell takes CBS full Pravda. You never go full Pravda.

Going to Trump’s Nazi rally at monosodium glutamate:

Conspiracy Theory:
Trump *told* the comedian to make a joke about Puerto Rico being a floating island of garbage, so that Biden would react by calling Trump supporters garbage, and then Trump could pull his garbage truck stunt.
Why else would they have a Trump branded garbage truck at the ready?
Just think…we are here
Only certain people can make jokes.
Hinchciffe’s joke: “I don’t know if you guys know this, but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico,”
Lopez joke: “Donald Trump said he was going to build a wall and George Lopez said you better build it in one day because if you leave that material out there overnight….”
Equally funny. Just laugh people cause everyone in attendance at both did.
Rogan talked about the Puerto Rico joke. Said it kills at the comedy club.
Said he told him never to do non-comedy events. Hinchcliffe even uses it in his act.
Which is good if Rogan laughed cause he is terrible at standup.
Money can turn around anything in less than 24 hours…I don’t think it was preplanned but reports have said the comedian tried the joke out earlier in the day or night prior but cannot find any proof.
1. It would not at all surprise me if there was a garbage truck in Wisconsin already decorated with Trump 2024.
2. Printing out the vinyl decals to slap on a truck would not take long. For a dedicated team it would be a few hours tops.
Trump sort of tells the story in the link above. Team put it together while he was flying to Wisconsin.
What a great clip. His honesty about it all is awesome.
And another opportunity to don the garb of the working man. Her campaign is getting hammered.
Conspiracy of that Conspiracy, Trump only did all that because he was going to Wisconsin, where the band Garbage is from.
Her pouty lips were 1998’s me kryptonite
She ain’t no Fiona Apple but yeah.
She is one of the two best looking girls to come from Scotland.
The other being Kelley McDonald. Also a 90’s girl.
Karen Gillan is a bit of alright, too.
But I’m team Kelly
MikeS – The other day regarding 5% of the vote. I want a third party it just seems silly that a third party who feels the current system is corrupt and failing is going to let another possible group in to mess up their very posh party. You know the goalposts will be moved. Hell, I can even see the IRS saying “Well, we can’t distribute these funds because…. ”
So that is why I responded. The Massie route is the way. Take it over from inside the establishment; just like the crazy progressives have.
Yeah, I know you’re probably right. But I don’t see the Massie route paying many dividends either. IMO the uniparty is the cause of many of our issues, and I just want it destroyed. I’ll vote for Reps or Dems who agree, and I’ll also agitate for a legit third party.
Here here!
Or is it Hear Hear! I never know.
How is getting on the ballot with a mere 5% support gonna destroy the Uniparty?
It will get crushed by the uniparty, who will hear the lamentations of our women.
You’ll have to remind me when I made that claim.
It’s “hear hear”. As in “hear him! Hear him!”
” IMO the uniparty is the cause of many of our issues, and I just want it destroyed. I’ll vote for Reps or Dems who agree, and I’ll also agitate for a legit third party.”
And, as OBE points out above, you were talking about the need for 5% to get on the ballots the other day. Maybe I am conflating the two things, but that seems to me to be exactly what you are saying.
ZWAK: getting to 5% is simply the first battle in the war. I never once claimed that hitting 5% automatically destroys the Uniparty.
Indeed, I didn’t think you implied the immediate destruction. But, I don’t think it would work in the long run, either. Which is why I liken it to tilting at windmills. And, yes, I am a member of that party, for what it is worth.
That might happen if (when?) the Libertarian Party crashes and burns. Maybe if all their activists had migrated to the GOP when Ron Paul got in the primaries, libertarians would be a more significant force now?
The hope is they seep in. Will it be quick enough though is the bigger question.
This! It is what I have been saying all along. Having the Libertarian party put it’s loser out there just costs money, ’cause he ain’t gonna win. No way, no how. But, putting effort behind one or the other party in the service of liberty can get you a seat at the table; imagine, a Libertarian director of the ATF, a Libertarian in charge of justice? Hell, even being parks director would be a step in the right direction.
Being on the ballot doesn’t mean shit if you are just gonna lose every race. The green party is on the ballot, and what have they done? Squat.
I know in my life time it will switch back to being the Dems who are pushing for liberty, just as in the eighties when I got interested in politics, that is how the world works. But in the push for liberty it shouldn’t matter who is in the catbird seat, it always needs to be fought for.
What is a leppo?
A cousin to a lert.
Trump already smashed the Republican Party in 2016. In 2024, he’s smashing the Democratic Party.
We are seeing ‘the parties switched’ in real-time.
We really are. The working class seems to be flipping, or have flipped. And “common knowledge” about racial voting blocks is changing, too. It’s interesting times. In four years I fully expect the stupid party to completely fuck it up and everything reverts back to “normal”.
Yep. Donald Trump is an eighties-to-nineties era Democrat, except for the free trade issue, which has been traditionally a part of the Democrat Party platform.
Pro-abortion, pro-union, pro-FedGov largesse…
Hillary Clinton was an ideologue, but Bill never really was. He was adaptable to the situation, and made “conservative” decisions while billing them as Democrat ideas.
“Abortions should be safe, legal, and rare.”
He passed NAFTA (which isn’t truly free trade, granted, but was billed as lowering obstacles to trade).
He signed a massive capital gains tax cut that I think was part of why the Internet revolution was so successful.
The only party switch I’ve seen is the Republicans become the Democrats from the 90s and the Democrats tack farther left.
“Take it over from inside the establishment”
That’s what Trump is trying to do to the Republicans. The rank-and-file pols like McConnell are fighting him all the way, to the point that they’re starving less swampy (R) candidates like Cruz of funds just so they can remain in charge of the Loser Party.
When Gary Johnson polled high enough to get into the debates they switched it to you had to poll that in THE RIGHT polls. They gatekeep the shit out of 3rd parties.
You know that Fortnite map that Kamala endorsed? Not guns. She is terrible at this and yes..her campaign is ran by 20 year old children.

So what do the do…. just pickaxe each other to death? That is even more grizzly if you want to play this reality metaphor out…..
No clue but out of *checks notes* 200 million players which 60% are American and ~25% are of voting aged….not good. 400 players? Shit, I may get that on my game where its just walking around.
Why does spell-check or whatever ‘corrects’ spelling constantly misspell ‘grisly’ as ‘grizzly’? I have seen it so many times all over the internet it’s become completely unbearable.
unbearable
What you did there was seen.
Thought we’d have a game. We did not. Just submitted a player who can walk through a level. 7 days for beginners, not easy. Kids and I are looking at other contests we can join though.
Good luck. We’re all (still) counting on you.
I agree…. there is a huge political realignment underway. And it is global.
The establishment has become so entrenched at feeding from the public trough, they are detached from the people.
But they have all the power. Every institution is fully captured.
They are ever so close to closing the door on us and making Big Brother a reality.
I don’t know if it is too late. But if Harris wins, it is definitely too late.
So, the other day I microwaved a pile of chocolate chips, spooned some peanut butter on it, microwaved the whole thing some more, worked the melted chocolate over the peanut butter, and put it in the fridge.
Tasty, but hard as a rock.
I was looking up recipes for something similar, and the closest I could find is a three ingredient recipe—chocolate chips, peanut butter, and confectioner’s sugar.
I don’t see the sugar as necessary.
What I want is something to keep the melted-then-refrigerated chocolate from breaking one’s teeth, and I haven’t taken a cooking class to know this sort of stuff.
Would adding butter to the chocolate do anything? It seems like it would keep the chocolate relatively soft, but for all I know it would make the chocolate inedible.
Maybe refined coconut oil?
Speaking of which, I used some to make pan-cooked popcorn earlier, and it was delicious.
Chocolate seizes up as it comes back to room temp. What are you trying to do?
Mimic Reese’s PB cups, without the cups.
I usually just get a spoonful of peanut butter and dump chocolate chips on top of it.
I might just melt the chips and plop some peanut butter on it, but not refrigerate it.
Are you attempting to make a paste of the chocolate to mix with peanut butter?
Also: semi-sweet or milk chocolate?
Peanut butter balls
How this inst a SP reference I will never know.
That sound delicious, and exhausting.
I don’t want a double-pan (or whatever it’s called.
That’s too much work, plus more clean-up.
I’m being lazy.
Microwave some choco-chips, toss in some PB. Profit.
It’s a double boiler.
You put one pot with water in it on the stove, put a metal bowl in that pot and let the steam off the water gently heat the chocolate.
Just use an oven mitt to hold the bowl and you’re golden. You can use the same bowl to mix in your peanut butter and have the same amount of cleanup as the microwave with better results.
^^^^
Try heavy cream. Beat vigorously.
😐
Post video and profit!
+1 food pron.
Scientific fact: chocolate tastes better when it’s melted.
Economic fact, chocolate is tied to coffee/tea on the open market.
OK, I see all these high tech solutions. Now I am going to tell you the secret. The redneck way.
You get a spoon
A jar of peanut butter.
A bottle of Hershey syrup
A banana
Put on a good show. Peel the banana
Dig a half spoon of peanut butter. Fill the other half with chocolate. Enjoy a couple of delicate mouthfuls
Get a fresh spoon of peanut butter. Load the end of the banana. Yum
Now you have a scoop shaped end of the banana where you bit it. Fill with chocolate.
Continue as your palate demands. Pure peanut butter. Pure chocolate. It’s all good.
You don’t have to live in a trailer park to enjoy the finer things in life.
*hard salute*
Harris squares up Ahhhnold.
Trump squares up Buzz Aldrin
I mean, the choice is clear!
So he’s sewn up the votes from the Moon and Mars now?
If it mean we get three-titted ladies..Go Aldrinschnegger!
Fuck both the Yankees and the Dodgers.
But mostly the Yankees.
I will enjoy the tears of their shitty fans if they lose the series at home.

This is what people are seeing. The benefit of the doubt is given to one group of folks and a full-on thermonuclear war against the other. I am calling it, it’s the rural uprising of 2024
Partial Breach of Election Machine Passwords in Colorado Poses No Risk, State Says\
You know what kinda trouble I’d be in if I kept passwords for the system I maintain on a hidden tab in Excel?
Cherry on top? Same lady who made the bold move and unilaterally removed Trump from the primary ballots.
First…why do you have over 600 BIOS passwords. Second…BIOS passwords would only lead to bricking the system, not lead to much more.
You could tell it to boot from alternate source, then use said alternate source to do anything to the main system.

My internet is down. Does anyone have the score for the Dodger game?
The Los Angeles Dodgers are World Series champions after winning a thrilling Game 5 at Yankee Stadium.
After falling behind 5-0 early, the Dodgers took advantage of a miscue-filled fifth-inning by the New York Yankees to even the score before finally pulling ahead in the eighth inning.
https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/41942826/2024-world-series-game-5-los-angeles-dodgers-new-york-yankees-updates-analysis-takeaways
Dodgers: 7
Yankees: 6
The score is fuck the Dodgers.
15 nil love
Who cares about a garbage team?
The Dodgers are my team-in-law.
Husband brought them to the marriage.
So, I have been noticing for weeks that every post about Trump, every post by Elon is immediately hit with a community note that turns out to be partisan nonsense. I figured it was coordinated.
And they may have exposed it here

Harris campaign using a discord server to coordinate attacks on X using community notes.
How can they manipulate what Trump said like that!? My word!
I just want to throw a boot thru the tv. Trump is praising Carter as he didn’t let in millions of illegals including criminals and people from mental institutions… is the Mariel Boatlift memory holed already? How TF did there get to be millions of illegals in this country for Reagan and the Congress to give amnesty to?
Overton window bro, the Republican party is now the party of Carter. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looking for the Overton horseshoe.

Ain’t no party like an S Tagg party.
78 year old climbing up into the cab of the garbage truck for the first time? Not bad at all.

Bull riding is my favorite sport to watch. Those animals are majestic, and the cowboys are crazy.

Text from the twitter post:
“After reviewing the Qualified Voter File (QVF) of votes actually cast as of yesterday, Oct 29, 2024, the database identifies 114,545 Michigan voters who have cast 279,113 ballots from multiple addresses across the state. This results in 164,568 excess ballots as of 10/29/2024. Below is one Voter ID”
https://x.com/mdeperno/status/1851652442288464365
And this is but one example. IMO the Harris campaign didn’t pull ads from Michigan because it was a lost cause; they pulled ads because it is in the bag.
It was an error in how the report was built. Trump team investigated and is satisfied test no extra votes exist
That is reassuring.

Good morning, Sean, U, Teh Hype, and DEG!
Salutations!
And good morning to you, too, cyto! How are you today?
Morning? How goes?
Well, thanks! Yesterday I relearned how to print expense checks at work during Reliable Coworker’s absence. That will come in handy today when I have to print a small (<$30) check to the IRS as a penaltax for the times our employer 401(k) contributions were late because our payroll processor and our retirement investment company couldn't settle on the method of transmitting the money. 🙄
How are you?
I overslept, and I’m getting exasperated with one of my direct reports. He can’t seem to get his head around the concept of writing a document for someone else. No, your scatterbained notes do not help other teams or new hires understand what’s going on.
I’d say fire him, but he’s GovSec.
Ugh. Where do you send a state employee for remedial written communication training?
Is this a riddle, GT? My answer is: the Corrections Department.
DOCCS is hiring Corrections Officer Trainees.
More seriously, one of my guys wrote too much and I had to ask him to trim that document down, the other wrote too little andI had to ask him to expand upon what was on the page.
As of yet undetermined.
Such a great tune. 🎶
I expected nothing less and by the looks of it, neither did those businesses as they boarded up in the event *checks notes* LA wins so it means we must loot?
