Alright, class, pop quiz. Who sent out the order to inflate Biden's approval by 7 points in all mainstream polls?

I think we're essentially in post truth waters now. Even if gas is ten dollars a gallon and there's a famine going on Biden will stick around 40-42% in all mainstream polls.

Yeah it is quite funny that Qunnipiac and IBD/TIPP gave Biden a +1/+2 bounce and yet NPR comes in at a +7, in a poll that oversampled Democrats by 6 points. This reminds me of a few weeks ago when Biden got all the way to 44%(still terrible for a Democrat) and people were screaming about a comeback, until it dropped all the way back to 40% in a few days. This time next week when gas is on the way to 5 dollars a gallon, inflation numbers come out tomorrow(iirc) and people can't afford to eat, that 47 will drop back to low 40s quick if they want to save face.
 
They're resorting to begging Venezuela for cheap crude oil now. Sure, even Fox will try to spin it as a 1000 IQ move to split Maduro's regime from Russia, but when we have the same administration begging Saudi Arabia to drill more, it's clear that he and his handlers are so shit-scared of getting scorned by some autistic vegan teenager that they'll source oil from literally anywhere else.

I love the environment. I moved to an area where we have to power-wash moss off of the sidewalk this time of year, it's so green. But damn do I fucking HATE the stranglehold environmentalists have over the Democrat party.
Climate-change fundamentalism killed environmentalism. When was the last time you heard anything about the accelerating pace of species extinctions, habitat destruction due to overconsumption, over-fishing, or the whole other host of environmental issues? If they get any mention at all, it's always directly related to climate change, and nothing else.

And how do we combat climate-change? Consoom more shit, this time green-approved crap, and you too can save the planet one more purchase at a time. Your old shit that still works? EVIL. BUY GREEN. The shit you build or fix yourself to reduce, reuse and recycle? NOT GREEN.

I literally had neighbors giving me shit about my chickens and composting, who had fucking "Stop Climate Change" signs. Cunt, my eggs, meat and fruit are literally carbon zero. You buy special organic chicken from Whole Foods that flew a 1,000 miles to get here.
 
I've been weighing whether or not Dubya or Biden was worse on foreign policy recently, and I kind of came to the conclusion that Biden takes it.

Don't get me wrong: W. Bush still fucked up and destabilized an entire region and killed a lot of people in the name of getting contractors rich and getting us entangled in the Middle East for 20+ years (and probably forever as they want their next cash cow). However, the displacement of people and wasting of resourses on war is a biblical foreign policy blunder, but one that could've been rectified eventually.

Biden, on the other hand, is tying foreign policy with economic policy, causing both to shit the bed. By pushing Russia and India to China, he created an alliance between nations which create and power everything against US. He is forcing Russia to completely decouple from SWIFT and the US dollar's world tenure supremacy and flushing it down the drain to "own Putler." He is so fucking out to spite Russia, he is actively trying to get oil from Iran and Venezuela, a country with "Death to America" day and a communist dictatorship. So everything gets more expensive while we grovel to despots in the name of "saving democracy." And the less said about Afganistan, the better.

Biden is single handedly attacking core economic pillars that will result in our country's irrelevance and forcing others to adopt that US irrelevance is coming to make allies with others against us. And in my opinion, that is something we cannot come back from. We gained that from WWII and if we squander it, it won't come back. We are weak, stupid, and growing irrelevant under Biden. And that is something we don't know the full fallout from.

Why need an order when its company policy?
 
Who even wants to trade in their old cars anyway? A lot of 90s and early 2000s cars are pretty simple to maintain and keep running no problem. As long as the parts are there, it shouldn't be an issue. When parts supply starts drying up, both new and old cars are screwed.
I have considered trading mine in, but it is only a few years old and I could get what I paid new for it with used car prices how they are now. Car note paid off and several grand to put down on another car is unheard of for a trade-in.

Ah yes because the Saudis have such great medical care that they send their embassy employees to Mayo in Minnesota. *sigh*

Regularly, but only because I am an autist who watches Animal Planet and Discovery shows about game wardens and fishermen.
 
I haven't paid much thought into this, but corn uses exceptional amounts of fertilizer. One such type is nitrogen fertilizer, which comes from petroleum coke, which comes as a byproduct of refining oil.

Now, the American diet does overlap quite a bit with corn or corn by-products whether directly or not (eg: leftover corn waste is given to livestock animals as a cheaper food source). It's fair to say that prices will jump quite a bit over the next few months as an indirect result of the Ukraine-Russia war, although distribution of higher costs will be unequal. Also worth pointing out is that smaller farms typically live on a small margin of profit. Rising costs of everything in general means that more of them will either go out of business completely, or be bought out by mega farms.

Behold, another unintended consequence of putting the brakes on American refining.

I have a gut feeling the COVID hysteria has contributed more to killing the planet than the entirety of 2010s.

Have you seen the mountains of garbage produced by masking and the daily takeouts? It's absolutely disgusting.
 
So Odenkirk is the reason why MDE World Peace got cancelled. Wow.

The only good thing Tim and Eric have done is bring The Room to the masses by having Adult Swim show it on April Fools Day.
Actually that was Brad Gellman, not Odenkirk that orchestrated that.

Gellman was one of those people who tried to cash in on Odenkirk via Tim and Eric opening live action crap onto Adult Swim but outside of of a supporting role on Eaglehart. all of Gellman's pilots AS financed flopped and it got so bad that not only did Gellman get told point blank "stop sending us your show pitches, they all fucking suck" but Gellman started having his wife pitch his ideas under her own name and starting the SJW pressure campaign demanding they start greenlighting, regardless of the quality, shows "run by women and people of color" in order to get his shows, fronted by his wife, on the air.

Gellman was livid that Sam Hyde got a show on Adult Swim and found two allies in Eric Andre (who's AS show had horrible ratings/buzz and was terrified that his show might get canceled in favor of World Peace) and Tim fucking Heidecker.

Tim had by this point, was operating as a solo act and now having to pay out pocket via the budget given to him by Adult Swim, to get his "Hollywood friends" to hang out with him and appear in his shows, after Odenkirk abandoned him. You see, once Odenkirk finally "got his big break" on Breaking Bad, Odenkirk basically severed all ties with Tim and Eric since he was now a big shot as opposed to someone bitter and resentful of his failed career on the fringes using Tim and Eric as a Ms Haversham-esque revenge plot on society.

To finance World Peace, Adult Swim EXPLICITLY slashed the bloated budget of Tim's then current show; this effectively meant he couldn't afford his Hollywood friend to appear on his show anymore.

Tim and Eric Andre agreed to help spearhead Gellman's scheme to get World Peace canceled: Eric played "good cop" and constantly brought up accusations, in concern troll fashion, that World Peace was run by racists. Meanwhile Tim played "bad cop" and went on a rabid dog offensive smearing the show and the cast, going full on psycho mode screeching and screaming at the top of his lungs that "Adult Swim was running a show produced by Nazis".

In the end, World Peace got canceled and Gellman got his way with couple of added bonus. By having Tim lead the attack for him, Tim got the lion share of the blame, which led to his show being canceled and Tim having to beg Eric to come out of retirement in order to get one last show greenlit by Adult Swim (Beef House) which barely last a single season. So Tim ultimately let his own hate boner for Sam and company blind him to the fact that he was the patsy of Gellman and Gellman ended up getting away with not only taking down World Peace but also doing catastrophic damage to Tim as Adult Swim never forgave him for his attacks on the company. Similarly, Eric Andre's show was also canceled and Andre forced out as well, as far as Andre inadvertedly getting canceled even with World Peace getting the axe.

Mentioning most of these would force an examination of the enormous, monocrop plantations that have destroyed so much habitat and displaced so many endangerd species, in places like brazil and madagascar, in order to supply feedstock for ethanol production. Not to mention the immense environmental and socio-cultural damage caused by rare earth mining to supply material for batteries and wind turbine generators.
 
I've been weighing whether or not Dubya or Biden was worse on foreign policy recently, and I kind of came to the conclusion that Biden takes it.

Biden, on the other hand, is tying foreign policy with economic policy, causing both to shit the bed. By pushing Russia and India to China, he created an alliance between nations which create and power everything against US. He is forcing Russia to completely decouple from SWIFT and the US dollar's world tenure supremacy and flushing it down the drain to "own Putler." He is so fucking out to spite Russia, he is actively trying to get oil from Iran and Venezuela, a country with "Death to America" day and a communist dictatorship. So everything gets more expensive while we grovel to despots in the name of "saving democracy." And the less said about Afganistan, the better.

Biden is single handedly attacking core economic pillars that will result in our country's irrelevance and forcing others to adopt that US irrelevance is coming to make allies with others against us. And in my opinion, that is something we cannot come back from. We gained that from WWII and if we squander it, it won't come back. We are weak, stupid, and growing irrelevant under Biden. And that is something we don't know the full fallout from.
The weak part can be recovered due to the basic business reality of "How do we get workers to work?" We won't get Protestant work ethic back as working too hard is actively detrimental, but the economy will sputter along in a checked out wagie sense. Stupid though, that can't be fixed without Civil War!™️That's when bad planning and bad reasoning get punished HARD regardless of ideology.

Irrelevant? Eh, I'm sick of the US regime changing other nations for arcane reasons. Unlike the Monroe Doctrine where the goals were clearly in the US's interests, 21th century meddling aren't.

Bush was average, Every president before Trump started a couple of wars that failed real hard.
Obama was a way worse President than the 2 past bush president or the one future bush president, he was weak, destroyed the army and set half of the middle east on flames without even going in.


This also shows why reagan was a fine president. he didnt went full retard when faced with an attack on an european country. there was just some supply as aid when the british isles where attacked. no insane lets burn down our own economy, no world war talk.

When did Biden push India to China?

Breaking news: Environmental activists are retards and self satisfied useful idiots, film at 11.

For real though, these are some good ass points to use when I need to piss off my liberal "friends."
