There's nothing like protesting the existence of billionaires at rallies paid for by billionaires.

Quote from: Brent on May 02, 2026, 12:20:35 PMThat band continues to tour with that name but they are a tribute band.To varying extents, most of the older bands have had personnel changes as time goes by. I don't know if there's a hard and fast line beyond which a band becomes a tribute band. Take Molly Hatchet, for example. They're still touring although all original members are deceased. 38 Special was formed by Van Zant and Don Barnes. Van Zant is retired, but Barnes is still in the band, going strong.
Amen.

Quote from: Herman on May 01, 2026, 08:59:15 PMKatie Wilson, the 43-year-old leftist blogger elected mayor of Seattle last year, apparently finds it amusing that deep-pocketed residents and businesses are fleeing her crime-ridden city.I would not mind higher taxes on the wealthy if it was used for more hospitable beds or building new roads.
According to a recent report from the the Downtown Seattle Association, the Emerald City's downtown has seen a 14% decrease in brick-and-mortar retail jobs since 2010 and lost an estimated 13,000 jobs just last year, amounting to the biggest decrease in jobs since the pandemic.
The report noted further that Seattle's downtown office vacancy remained at a post-pandemic high of 25%; the central business district experienced an office vacancy rate of 32% last year, nearly double previous high point during the Great Recession in 2009; and the combined taxable value of the 20 highest-valued properties in Seattle's downtown has declined from over $10 billion in 2021 to roughly $5.1 billion this year.
Wilson signaled that her city's crushing taxes won't soon be changed.
But to those beleaguered residents who have chosen to leave or might do so in the near future, the mayor waved, said, "Bye," and laughed in concert with fellow travelers in the sparsely populated audience.
Despite Wilson's casual dismissal, high taxes in Seattle appear to be chasing jobs to cities like Bellevue.
Jon Scholes, president of the Downtown Seattle Association, suggested that Amazon's decision to relocate thousands of employees from Seattle to other King County locations was the direct result of Seattle's overwhelming tax burden, reported the Center Square. Starbucks, which is headquartered in Seattle, also appears to be angling for greener pastures.
Among the taxes the city has implemented is the Social Housing Tax, a 5% levy on employee compensation exceeding $1 million, and the JumpStart Payroll Expense Tax, which the city slapped on companies with employees making more than $150,000 annually.
More tax money in Canada means more money to buy the media, to give to despotic foreign regimes, and to give to Liberal Party billionaires to mitigate their carbon footprints.

Quote from: Lokmar on May 01, 2026, 01:18:26 PMI think its simple human nature to reach out to people with opposing views in order to try to make a connection with them. The only connection I'd want to make with Aidsman is connecting my foot with his ass....provided it was completely covered in HIV resistant plastic of course!It sounds like he doesn't have opposing views. It sounds like he wants to stay out of the slammer for his sick proclivities.

Quote from: J E B Stuart on May 02, 2026, 11:10:31 AMFormed 1974 in jackassasssonville, Florida, 38 Special is one of the premier Southern Rock bands. I've seen them live twice and they're still touring and recording, although co-founder Donnie Van Zant had to retire due to health reasons. For those of you who may not know, Donnie is the middle brother of Ronnie and Johnny Van Zant of Lynyrd Skynyrd fame.That band continues to tour with that name but they are a tribute band.
This is one of their classics:
Amen.

Quote from: Lokmar on May 01, 2026, 12:55:48 PMClearly, you have no experience dealing with that guy. He is an absolute, bonafied degenerate and goes out of his way to make enemies of anyone who doesnt agree with him or carry the degeneracy torch of the left wing. Even DKG pounded his head into mush against the brick wall of reaching out to Aidsman in an attempt to have a rational conversation REPEATEDLY, only to be met with ridicule and memes.I remember the first time he registered here with the handle snowflakes4trump....I was the owner then....he kept disrupting discussions that had nothing to do with the American president with memes about him....I asked him to stop, he didn't so I confined him to the former Reject Rodeo..
I assumed he was one of many harmless flyover trolls we've had since this forum was founded nearly thirteen years ago.

Quote from: Lokmar on May 01, 2026, 12:59:30 PMIt was a totally accurate and fair assessment.
BTW, we know what he wants women and children to suffer as he's told us himself.
I know BF was an actor long ago, but mostly was just an extra. I was watching an older movie last night, had to pause for a second to see if it was him. Was 2 seconds of a dude walking up stairs with his nose up a drag queens ass. Wasn't him, but looked a lot like him lol.
