*Establish Permanent Manned Presence on The Moon
*Send the 1st Manned Mission to Mars
*Build World’s Greatest Infrastructure System
*Establish National High-Speed Wireless Internet Network
*Develop a Vaccine by The End Of 2020
*Make All Critical Medicines and Supplies for Healthcare Workers in The U.S.
*Refill Stockpiles
*Further Cut Prescription Drug Prices
*Lower Healthcare Insurance Premiums
*End Surprise Billing
*Cover All Pre-Existing Conditions
*Continue to Lead the World in Access to the Cleanest Drinking Water and Cleanest Air
*Partner with Other Nations to Clean Up our Planet’s Oceans
*Stop Endless Wars & Bring Troops Home
*Maintain & Expand our Unrivaled Military Strength
*Build a Great Cybersecurity & Missile Defense System


Posted at various times yesterday (I deleted time stamp info to save space). We could easily spend the entire weekend ripping this list to shreds.

Is this real? And if it is, what moron from the GOP decided that the FIRST thing on that list should be "Establish Permanent Manned Presence on The Moon"?

I mean I would imagine a lot of people never get past that first line they are laughing so hard.

It's real. It was sent out in a series of tweets. But yeah, they still decided that the space stuff was so important that it just had to be tweeted out first.
Yes son. I'm the best mono-thingy guy there ever was.

Does "many many" equate to more than a fraction of 1% of the US? Assuming the obvious answer is no, our posts remain in harmony.

Wtf?

Never mind. I need to remind myself that cruelty is the point of the death cult that is masquerading as a political party.

This afternoon at the entrance of forbidden drive this big bald guy by himself with a huge trump flag set up a boxing bag and was doing a boxing workout, like he had his shirt off, boxing gloves on and was punching the bag. There was a small concert going on like a hundred meters away and the trail was relatively packed with walkers and stuff that all had to go by him. When I got back from my run the guy had stopped boxing but was hanging out in his convertible on the part of the trail you can drive on with his trump flag out the back just like looking at people.

I've been running there for years and I've never seen anything like it. Just super bizarre times.
Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say if Biden wins the chances are it will be legitimate. Will there be protests from the right. Maybe and, if there are, it’s likely they’ll be fomented bu Trump.

If Trump wins legitimately I doubt you’ll see much in the way of protests from the left. There may well be some but they’re likely to be more funereal in nature. But if Trump tries to claim victory when he’s been beaten I think you’ll see a lot of protests from the left and, frankly, I hope there would be.

Of course it falls to me to point out that not all 78 year olds have hands that look like that. It looks like he’s had some procedure(s) and has had his hands punctured and bruised by needles.

Yea, i don't think it's an uncommon thing or an alarming issue that everyone is making it out to be. My dad's hands and arms looks real bad the last year or two of his life(not as bad as Mitch's tho). Just mostly a function of getting older.
