What is that from?
I would go to TCH or Talking Stick for poker over Vegas. Games are ok in Seattle, but max bet is $300 or $500 if youāre in an indian casino. They seem to be divesting right now though. LA a distant 3rd.
Good news in NSW today where heavy rain is taking out a lot of the bushfires. One fire that had burnt for 74 days straight has been extinguished.
Deep Thought: How come a candidate is allowed to talk about āthe black voteā and āthe brown voteā but if they referred to Asians as āthe yellow voteā their campaign would be over?
Similarly, non-English speakers are probably very confused when they first learn that āvoters of colorā is fine but ācolored votersā would be campaign suicide.
Because of the history of frank and honest discussions of race in this countryā¦
I actually think referring to the ābrownā vote is not all that great, because not many non-black, non-white people refer to themselves that way. Asians call themselves Asian, not yellow, but black people call themselves black.
Who couldāve guessed heād be addicted to benzos?
Black people often refer to themselves as exactly that, so itās a term chosen by the black community. Iāve never heard East Asians calling themselves yellow.
āColouredā comes directly from South Africaās apartheid era and Jim Crow laws in the US, so has connotations, whereas again āof colourā is the term chosen by the non-white community.
But why should they get to decide? Why shouldnāt I, as a middle-aged Boomer, get to use whatever term I want for them? I feel persecuted.
Iāve never heard use of the term ābrown voteā - is that really a thing?
Fuck their feelings!
The irritating thing to me isnāt that Rush Limbaugh and Jordan Peterson and Newt Gingrich and Jerry Falwell and Bill OReilly and basically every single one of these people are monstrous hypocrites, and it isnāt even that they keep conning rubes no matter how obvious their personal failings. Itās that these absolute pieces of shit are still covered as sincere people worth listening to by the media.
I donāt disagree, my post was prompted by Joe Biden of all people casually referring to āthe Brown voteā with George Steph. this morning.
From the article:
Attempts at treating Mr Peterson in numerous North American hospitals had failed, his daughter said, requiring them to seek an āemergencyā detox program in Russia.
I justā¦what? Does anyone have any idea what kind of āemergencyā detox program in Russia sheās talking about?
And just trying to figure out when exactly this was a problem in footage of him from last year or soā¦
She says this has been a problem for eight months as of yesterday.
Joe Rogan interview was from November 2018, so maybe not during that time.
Here is an interview from November 2019 allegedly two months after he got out of rehab the last time. If the problem has been ongoing for eight months, he is suffering in this video from the panic, restlessness, and benzo addiction.
So far sheās doing really well considering the diagnosis. The doctors said she has type A influenza which is supposed to be the bad version I was told. Maybe they caught it early.
I hung out with her for a couple hours yesterday, which she was against because she didnāt want me to get sick but I told her tough shit and just masked/gloved up. We mostly talked about politics and dunked on Pete/Biden. She also recently seems pretty woke to how the MSM/Establishment is obviously anti-bernie. So Iām super proud of her, definitely a good boomer.
Sheās still having trouble breathing at times but besides that seems in pretty good shape to recover. Iām definitely surprised and happy at her progress so far. Sheās in good spirits. I showed her a post I made on FB which got a ton of love and told her how the political nerds I talk to were also rooting for her and those things put a big smile on her face and clearly made an impact, so thanks guys!
Will let you guys know if there are any more updates.
Hahahahahahaha Unstuck makes a difference!
Good to hear she is in pretty good shape to recover.
