Almost 38, I spend all my free time with my wife. Started off more balanced before we moved for my work, and the more I focused on time with her, the happier we were. I hang out with work friends occasionally.

My pre marriage friends became vile, Trump-worshipping, incel assholes, so I am very content with my decisions.

What a great comment from an infrequent commenter. Thank you! This was a lovely read, good points, and I shared with my wife.

Surprisingly, seems like they are. Too soon to be sure of course. https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/05/politics/nra-transgender-gun-control

Indeed, you’re surely right. Pour one out for the big boys.

Agreed on all counts :( I just don’t want all this to distract from the topic that might take him down, one way or another. The Epstein files make him afraid. He’ll make mistakes. That’s what we need.

Fully agree! It’s so much work and so incredible to look at and admire. Art deco too for the same reasons.

Steam locomotives!!! Maybe not the full intent of this thread, but they’re terrible for the environment, inefficient, complicated as hell, and SO COOL!

Yes he did, and he definitely wants to. Now… where are the Epstein files?

Illegals have constitutional rights. Everyone in the US has these rights. That’s kinda our thing.

Thank you for unlocking this horrifying memory for me. Great albeit disturbing movie and scene.

Different earplug guy here: smart watches and some other devices vibrate or tap on your wrist.

That’s how I wake up, plus I don’t disturb my wife!

The exam found Trump, 79, has chronic venous insufficiency.

As someone who has been treated for this, I can confidently say bullshit. His ankles are swollen like he got them beaten and broken with a crow bar for not paying his debts.

My professional medical diagnosis is he has demon legs with no knees.

Source: making it up but I’m right.

It happens but never fast enough, and man the church has its problems. We had one call the pope a wolf in sheep’s clothing for supporting “the jab”; people walked out.

A couple months later, he was removed without goodbyes or explanation, and is no longer a priest. I would like more swift and public justice for the ones causing public scandal.

Hah true. I guess I just want to see “Trump Agriculture Chief talking point compared to nazi ideology because it is”

Mocked? Only mocked?

This is one of the most abhorrent statements ever made by a politician that wasn’t in a slavery or open racism era.

They are testing the waters for this and worse. This needs to be spotlighted, shamed, and crushed.

Unfortunately, say goodbye to removal of tax exempt status: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/07/us/politics/irs-churches-politics-endorse-candidates.html

Gave me chills. This is a great video.

Is that how the song should be taken?

I always understood it as him or the speaker singing the lyrics as if the audience was innocent in the events, and the leaders /villains/whoever are not “us” and they did it.
