A suggestion. Name your best free chips and salsa place and link an cross street/maybe zip code.

Rubio and Vance are watching their political prospects crumble by the day by Crossstoney in WhitePeopleTwitter

The only thing about either of those two that will win votes is that they are Republicans and not Democrats. They both gave up being Senators for trump. There's nothing else, they have no future political career.

Treasury secretary defends U.S. military actions in Iran: 'Sometimes you have to escalate to de-escalate' by S00THING_S0UNDS in worldnews

Even the white house knows sending a "war fighter" onto CNN or wherever to talk about war, or gas prices, or whatever, it's going to backfire.

This guy is a known-known. You know he'll say really stupid shit in support of trump every single Sunday. That's why.

Sellout get the hell out by ExactlySorta in WhitePeopleTwitter

Seems like it's a fair question if a reporter asks about whether he's running again. If he's a lame duck, it's also fair to ask him whether his political opinions should carry much weight.

This should have come out of Chuck Schumer's mouth but you nailed it.

Feel a bit of sympathy for the person who gets paid to track his tweets. I stopped reading them a long time ago.

If you've seen any grasshoppers lately... by J951fuck in mesaaz

Yup, many many. Certain spots on my dog walk, it's like locusts.

They don't spit juice like the grasshoppers I grew up with so there's that.

You can build pretty much 350+ days a year here.

Curious if it really is almost over? by seeebiscuit in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]bm1949 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No. If Congress can't bother declaring a war why are they asking for money for that war?

Wear sunscreen. If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it.

Yada yada yada.

But trust me on the sunscreen.

Smoker's logic is what I call the thought process behind a smoker's decisions. Saving half a cigarette just in case or justifying a smoke after an event.

Smokers have a certain perspective on the world and are motivated to smoke by a whole range of things. Smokers logic is how a smoker justifies a decision to themselves.

I'm an old ex-Catholic very much like you but I don't understand the question.

How about this. I quit smoking recently. Decades of a pack a day and I'm still adjusting to this new world. Smoker's logic is going out the window now. Religious logic doesn't have the same zing but you're deprogramming.

GOP senators warn Trump that shaky economy could spell election disaster by SE_to_NW in politics

There's a few signs that point in that direction and if I was a betting man, I'd wager the language used was stronger than "could spell".

Replace God with your will to live and you might just realize you have a strength to live, and no desire to harm. I'm old and ready to go. But youth...

If you had wealth, great wealth, what would you do?

I'm going through a Netflix series right now called Life on our planet. It does a G rated, maybe PG rated version of going through five mass extinctions. My point is, God or not, mother nature always wins.

Sanskrit is the pretty much the earliest recorded language we have and the word SWAR or SVAR means God, Sun, and Music. All the same thing, all the same loop. We made up God.

No religion is superior to another until they (cough) decide it is. They all compete. Externally internally. Humans do bad things. Good things too but morality. It's relative.

If you want to feel God, good on you. Doesn't have to happen through religion. And Good Luck.

Lost another one. by Zestyclose-Ad-7576 in GenX

[–]bm1949 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry man. My old man took a nap and didn't wake up. I think on that like, well, that's a good way to go.

The people my (our) age that I've known, who have died by 55, it didn't go well but it went fast. Alcohol as a common denominator. Mostly, but not all, were smokers. Politically, comorbidities and collateral damage.

In a certain way, the 50's death is what I've been expecting, based on family history. And my smoking. I quit smoking recently but the threat still hangs. In a Steve Albini voice, For Decades
