I never understood the fascination with the social media format. Conversational flows just work much better in formats like this. Unfortunately they are dying in favor of these quick mindless cesspools which simpletons and GenZers alike seem to gobble up like candy

and yeah we ain't about to tolerate the leftist shitbag cancers that destroy forums around here. DKG and I are in complete alignment there. Dicktards like admin will get about 14 seconds to run their lame stitch before getting booted on their asses

and they can go shit in a hat and piss up a pole until their balls rot off that they were denied their right to "free speech"

This is private property dicksplash, and free speech starts and stops wherever the owner of the property decides it does. And I will make no apologies to any of those spastics for enforcing that as I am in complete agreement with that philosophy

you wanna espouse diarrhea of the mouth do it on a board that welcomes such brain rot. I'll take the quality of five of us over the quantity of fifty sewer major clones any day of the week. 

Adminge won't even poast at bf openly anymore.  He will never come here.  The Countess shamed him away.

I could see myself doing that. Being surrounded by distraction, friends to talk to, and drinking beer would make it tolerable for me. Maybe pay attention to the highlights.

Quote from: Herman on February 04, 2026, 09:17:08 PMA father's justice
Aaron Vann ultimately sued Cole and Smith on behalf of his son, Asher.

The lawsuit accused the duo of:

creating an "outrageously false narrative for the purposes of raising money and garnering attention, at the expense of children's privacy";
invasion of privacy, noting that Smith and Cole apparently publicized the teen's name and address "with the express purpose of causing humiliation, public ridicule, and inspiring public hatred and harassment" of the teen; and
acting "intentionally and/or recklessly, when they knowingly and intentionally launched a crusade of false facts, allegations, and narratives to create a social media and public outrage designed to torment [Asher] and subject him to intense ridicule, hatred, embarrassment, and fear – all based on facts Defendants knew to be false."
Vann's complaint, which also suggested that Cole helped manufacture the controversy in order to gain exposure and "free publicity for her law firm," emphasized that Humphrey wasn't the victim of a "sadistic racist fantasy" but rather one among a group of boys who "acted stupidly by playing with BB guns and playing gross pranks on each other."
According to Plano Police Department Officer Patricia McClure's 2025 testimony cited by the Beacon, the boys attending the sleepover apparently went outside with airsoft rifles and BB guns in search of frogs during a winter storm. Absent any sign of amphibian targets, the boys reportedly took turns shooting one another. Later, they pranked one another.

Vann suggested to the Beacon that there was no ill will between him and Humphrey after the sleepover but that Smith later caught wind of the events and pushed an alternate version in the press.

The case was called to trial in late October, and a jury — which included four black members — found that Smith and Cole effectively blew up Asher Vann's life with a false narrative.

Judge Benjamin Smith of Texas' 380th Judicial District Court ruled late last month that for their "intentional infliction of emotional distress and invasion of privacy" against the young man, Smith and her lawyer must each pay $1,599,000, accruing interest at a rate of 7.5% per annum. The judge also ordered both women to each pay several thousand dollars more for Vann's attorney fees.

I hope this discourages other Smollet type hate crime hoaxes.

Quote from: Herman on February 04, 2026, 09:03:19 PMDemocrats have worked overtime to demonize and delegitimize the men and women of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement — those whom Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz branded as "Trump's modern-day Gestapo," Sen. Tina Smith (Minn.) called a "clear and present threat," Rep. Eric Swalwell (Calif.) dubbed "terrorizing bandits," and Democrat anchor-baby Rep. Delia Ramirez (Ill.) called a "terror force."

In addition to Rep. Nancy Pelosi (Calif.), Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, and other Democrats threatening lawfare against ICE officers, some radical officials have turned up the heat by suggesting that it may be reasonable to shoot masked federal immigration agents.

Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) claimed this week that it would be "justified" to shoot those he characterized as "masked hoodlums."

"What is really the major problem in this country today is the fascism in our streets, the attacks on American citizens by masked hoodlums," said Nadler, going off-topic during a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday. "If you were attacked by a masked person, you might think you were being kidnapped. You'd be justified in shooting the person to protect yourself."

There should be a quick process to remove any federally elected member of the legislative branch who advocates for murder and treason. All of these Democrats are seditious and unfit to serve.

President Donald Trump's approval rating has sharply reversed course, according to data from a new national poll.

White House spokesperson Kush Desai told Newsweek: "The Trump administration remains laser-focused on continuing to cool inflation, accelerate economic growth, secure our border, and mass deport criminal illegal aliens."

Trump's approval rating has returned to the 50 percent mark in the latest InsiderAdvantage national survey—its highest level in weeks—after a period of volatility driven by immigration enforcement controversies in Minneapolis.

When President Donald Trump signed the funding package that ended a partial government shutdown on Feb. 3, another clock started ticking.

Republicans and Democrats have a Feb. 13 deadline to strike a new deal on appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), now covered by a very brief continuing resolution.

The department's components include Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Customs and Border Patrol, the Transportation Security Administration, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Coast Guard funding is also affected by the DHS bill.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is seeking a court order for investigating systemic race discrimination allegations against white workers by footwear and apparel corporation Nike Inc., according to a Feb. 4 statement from the agency.

The EEOC filed an action in federal court to compel Nike, headquartered in Oregon, to produce information related to allegations that the company discriminated against white workers as part of its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.

According to the filing made by EEOC in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, the agency is looking to enforce an administrative subpoena against Nike for failing to submit the required information, which was initially requested in 2024 by then-commissioner, and now chair, Andrea Lucas.

Lucas alleged that Nike, since at least 2020, engaged in "a pattern or practice of disparate treatment against white employees, applicants and training program participants in hiring, promotion, demotion, or separation decisions, including selection for layoffs; internship programs; and mentoring, leadership development and other career development programs."

I don't get it either. I originally came from TOPIX. Social media is about a soundbite. I cannot have the discussions I have here on my X account. Social media is ideal for people who cannot think. That is why celebrities love it.

No offense, but have you found much interest in those topics anywhere? I mean the earth is flat and the moon landing was fake.

I'm not saying they are boring. But, since 2015 Canada has gone from the sixth best country in the world to live in to thirty third today. The topics that interest you are luxuries for Americans because your economy is putting ours to shame.
