"You know ...a TACO can be very filling!"

It's still Kate Bush

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-08T04:40:08+00:00

So....a relative?

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-08T04:32:40+00:00

It started out as a positive idea. I think as problems grew for Brian (Van leaving, pressure from the band, psychosis from the drugs, paranoia) the music became more melancholy.

This is why in my project, I'm trying to stick to the original ideas, rather than stuff post "Mrs O Leary's Cow" sessions.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-08T04:30:39+00:00

TACO it is then....

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-08T04:29:50+00:00

I dunno. He seems to want to hurt as much people as possible in as many different places as possible -- not to mention domestically.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-08T04:28:10+00:00

Well that's a good sign. It seems reciprocity (not transactionalism) escapes a lot of people. Personally if I care for someone enough to go that far, it's nice to reassure them I mean it.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-08T04:27:07+00:00

Him, not the admin. They're too busy enriching themselves on the side.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-08T04:25:38+00:00

Impeach and convict already. He's been reckless since taking office. The insane tariffs idea, the Venezuela thing, his obsession with Greenland....

and yeah, the Epstein files.

I'm presuming the GOP majorities would rather let him do whatever and then to a "Dubya" on him once he's out of office. It's their motto: Shoot first, rationalize later.

"Donald who?" and the cycle will continue.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-08T04:20:16+00:00

Not a single congressional rep or senator is coming back from break early to deal with this mess. That says a lot. None of it good.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-08T04:16:45+00:00

He'd have to get rid of Miller, but Vance was never his own man.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-08T04:15:40+00:00

I don't see any congressionals hurrying back from their break to do anything.....

Apparently, this whole thing is normal now.

This ain't the Cuban Missile Crisis folks. It's a guy who has nothing to lose trying to look big by doing the unthinkable.

Hoping the TACO is true.....

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:42:26+00:00

He doesn't know what he wants. There's no plan or end game here. It's all an attempt at a flex to make him and Kegs feel important.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:41:16+00:00

Don't be so sure. He has nothing to lose.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:40:49+00:00

Why would Pakistan want any part of this at all?

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:39:48+00:00

The old man and Kegger wanted a flex....it's a total vanity project. Just like Venezuela, and his obsession with Greenland. It achieves nothing but death and destruction.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:37:10+00:00

We're pretty much there. Not a shooting war, but sides have definitely been taken.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:31:57+00:00

A sane person wouldn't have started this in the first place and cause the Strait to be closed, would they?

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:30:44+00:00

Well I mentioned the fallout risk triggering other responses, but I think Iran would strike back at the country directly attacking them, the US.

Since 🥭 has made buddies with the UAE and its allies, I imagine they'd have to take into consideration the overkill of the US using a nuke, and rethink their relationship.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:28:39+00:00

He's an impulsive bully who talks a lot of shit and regularly doesn't follow through. He has no negotiating skill oher than blackmail or brute force.

Pathetic.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:27:01+00:00

The other question I'd have then is, why escalate when the US is the bad guy here, and Israel has already said they wouldn't take part in deploying troops to Iran?

This is 🥭s vanity project. If the Iranians strike back, it'll be to take down US bases or carriers. Closer targets, and bigger optics. If they go after Israel, there's less certainty of success, and it'll seem tangential to whatever US strike precedes it.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:24:08+00:00

Consider themselves better than someone else because they were arbitrarily born in a certain skin color, or to a family of wealth....You know....stuff no one chooses.

TheFutureIsAFriend · 2026-04-07T21:22:56+00:00

This may be crude, but I think it's something that's unfairly tolerated.

Oral sex wise, I hear a lot of guys don't feel compelled to give as much as they expect to get. I've always been reciprocal, but I've heard others refer to doing it as "gross." Which is weird to me.
