    Weren't there supposed to be man-eating fish in the water she was knocking all those guys into though? LOL So maybe not that clean.

    I think it's only because Franky kind of felt a sort of kinship with Senor Pink. If he had a more purely evil opponent without any kind of honor to go against, then I don't think he would of had any problem with just straight off blasting them to hell instead of playing around like he did with Pink.

    Raining punches. Hallelujah.

    I wanna feel sad for the guy, but it's just such a freakin weird backstory explanation for why he dresses like a weirdo. I mean, it makes sense he would do that for her in the hospital to try and make her smile, but to keep dressing like a total baby from head to toe for the rest of your life? That's still just nuts.

    Here comes the rain. Had a feeling the baby dying was kinda behind it all.

    Smooth Leo. Real smooth.

    They really killed it this week. Only letdown is no penguins, but I guess I've already seen enough penguin memes this week to last a lifetime.

    Smile. ~zap~ LOL Taken down after all that by a pretty face.

    Another thing is what proof is there that it's not just a hoax by the guy? Until someone actually dies, there's no way to know for sure, but considering he's believed by everyone to be a genius, guess it kind of figures everyone would be predisposed to believe he's serious.

    Whether it's a virus or a drug, really feels farfetched one could ever be developed with such a long time delay before it becomes dangerous to people. Also, some people will take more hapna than others, so wouldn't increased useage result in some people getting sicker sooner? Really would have to be one hell of a genius to create something like that. Also, hard to believe anything that potentially lethal could get past FDA approval without being detected. Given it's the central premise the show is based upon though, guess don't have much of a choice but to just go with.

    Painkiller? What about the Amish? Don't they not believe in taking any kind of modern medicine? Surely there'd be at least some people who didn't take the stuff.

    https://www.smh.com.au/traveller/travel-news/an-australian-was-denied-us-entry-for-bizarre-reasons-he-s-not-alone-20250403-p5lov8.html "One Traveller reader has vowed never to return to the US after he was detained last month for eight hours at New York’s John F. Kennedy airport, while his laptop and smartphone were examined by US border guards. He was finally deported back to Australia. His “crime”? Taking a more circuitous route to the US to save on his airfare, though he stresses he was not accused of any actual “wrongdoing”. “I feel like returning to the US under the current administration would be the equivalent of going back for your hat after escaping a devastating house fire,” says the reader, an Australian citizen who asked not to be named. “I have no wish to be burnt again.” He arrived in the US following a 24-hour flight from Sydney to New York via Hong Kong, with Florida his planned final destination. From there he intended to board a cruise and says he is now $15,000 out of pocket due to the cruise line’s refusal to refund his fare. What the hell are we doing? Seriously, WHAT THE HELL are we doing?! We're turning away now even people just coming to vacay from Australia? How is this at all keeping America safe? Besides from foreign tourist money I mean. Are we just moving to straight xenophobia now? Just really hard to see the rationale behind this one.

    Good for them that they gave this guy the boot. They still got real problems to grapple with looking forward though. I just watched a video a couple hours ago by funny coincidence saying how by 2060 their entire country is looking at a total collapse due to their birth rate being the lowest ever recorded in the history of the world currently. It seems like it's kind of past the point of no return, too, so even if they were to immediately enact some major societal changes somehow, they'd still have some serious, potentially existential, consequences to deal with in just a couple of generations time.

    And I thought Japan had a big problem with its low birth rate, but their situation looks downright rosy compared to South Korea's.

    Inside Trump and RFK Jr.’s Health Agency ‘Bloodbath’ The layoffs included 1,200 positions at the National Institute of Health (NIH) and 3,500 at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Dr. Robert Califf, the former FDA commissioner under Obama and Biden, called it a “dark day for public health.” “The FDA as we’ve known it is finished, with most of the leaders with institutional knowledge and a deep understanding of product development and safety no longer employed,” wrote Califf in a LinkedIn post. “I believe that history will see this as a huge mistake.” Meanwhile, RFK is eviscerating the CDC, the NIH, the FDA... the WTF. I mean seriously, if the idea with this import tax hike they're putting on people is to drive companies to want to invest here, just ask yourself why would any of them want to do that in a country that's actively trying to make its people sicker and is opening itself up to being the likely epicenter of another pandemic. I admit maybe that's not front and foremost on a CEOs mind when trying to decide where to build a factory, but that and all the other chaos they're creating here can't be all that attractive to them. BTW, wonder what the republican reaction in congress is to all these people in HHS losing their jobs? https://people.com/senator-jim-banks-tells-hhs-employee-who-lost-job-you-probably-deserved-it-11707374

    Well, yeah that's why I added on "some" there. I think you're right and he's still going to be out there on his own and continue tweeting as much as ever. Just I don't think they're gonna want to have him seen in White House meetings or out on the campaign trail stumping for candidates anymore.
  19. Dark_Cloud_Overhead
    This just means they finally understand having him out in the front of the cameras day in, day out is getting to be really bad for them. He'll simply move back into the shadows some, but I fully expect he'll still be there with his money, pulling the strings for as long as this administration lasts.

    It's a poor and middle class tax hike. I hate the word tariff. Just obfuscates what's really going on, which is simply put... class warfare. No matter what language is used though, when people see the rising prices and feel the pain economically, they're gonna know. And the idea that this is to bring manufacturing back... puhlease. That's just to give the media a chance to talk about this and analyze it as if there's some kind of actual strategy at play here, but doing them by country like this in a blanket fashion makes it pretty clear that this is just ultimately another con. It's no wonder they delayed this whole announcement till after the markets closed. Just look at where the dow futures are right no and it's like ruh roh! Dow futures tumble 1,000 points on fear Trump’s tariffs will spark trade war: Live updates

    He'll always be Madmartigan to me. Rest in peace Val.

    Crawford's spoke just now and mentioned Schimel called her and conceded, so don't think they'll be able to contest this one. It doesn't look like it's gonna be close enough for them to have any kind of case to challenge it legally. Don't think they have any more real cards to play then. Maybe if they still had a supermajority in the state legislature they could try something crazy, but they lost that in the last election.
  23. Dark_Cloud_Overhead
    Me too. At first I suspected it might be a joke but only because I didn't remember him being on the show. I did a quick search and saw he actually was on it though, so I totally bought it after that.
  24. Dark_Cloud_Overhead
    Phony Stark goes down in flames. Looks like a total asskicking, too. Guess money can't buy everything.
  25. Dark_Cloud_Overhead
    Wow, I must have stopped watching before he was on it, cuz I had no idea about that and would never have guessed that he ever was. But oh boy, this ought to be good. I can't wait to hear what he has to say.
