Deadbeat Dad

loving horrendous. And yet, it's not the first time I've heard/read about putting down a dog that isn't learning hunting commands and behavior.

My boss mentioned his father having done it when he was a kid and out on a hunt with him where the dog spooked whatever it was they were going after for the nth time. Dog came trotting back pleased with itself, boss' dad shot the dog dead. The matter-of-fact delivery he gave was just barely covering up what a horrible memory that had clearly been for him.

This is not justification at all, gently caress Kristi Noem. It's just that reading the story drove home that there's a segment of the population that doesn't think twice about that poo poo and it utterly confounds and angers me.

Dogs are amazing and we don't deserve them.

So true. When I was healthier I volunteered at the shelter.

There was one type of person that you can just tell is going to be bad as an adopter. We actually started to do social media checks before people could adopt animals because we had heard about people taking them back to shelters, or having pets that their kids, or they abused in the past.

I will never understand abuse. I come from it, and it still bothers me to no end that there are people that consider it okay to hit people or berate them tears. A dog or cat doesn't understand abuse. They only understand that they want your love and you are hurting them for it.

I know that the whole “conservatives are all sociopaths /psychopaths” thing is tired and overplayed but Scott Pressler really comes across as an absolute freak of a man that has more issues than Time magazine. Dude is wigged out all the time and he’d be mocked for being as crazy as Kanye if it weren’t for the fact that he’s surrounded by other crazier white people like Kristi “I can’t train my dog so I’ll just kill it” Noem.

The media is really trying to make this a horse race between a pretty okay president that has done some good things and a racist rapist moronic charlatan who is bought-and-sold by foreign adversaries and is currently facing 93 criminal indictments in the USA, which makes these polls all the much more confusing and hilarious.

I'd never heard of Kaplan, and a slow day at work, but they run campaigns and can offer tailored polling, so it's hard to see them as objective without knowing more (as objective as polls can be). A few Tweets out there suggest the Doug Kaplan guy himself might kind of suck, so draw your own conclusions from that.

EDIT: Yeah, he loving suuuucks. And uses a lot of lovely AI art.

As far as I’m aware, everyone is just taking pressler at his word that he’s got some unnamed, but dude totally real, blood disease. And there’s no way a sociopathic Republican operative would lie about something like that to sell a narrative or garner sympathy. No sir.

I don’t even give a poo poo if he is telling the truth. He’s apparently healthy enough to traipse across the loving country fueled on granola bars alone, which is probably more than most of us could say.

yeah scotty strikes me as deeply weird and self loating and hosed up. he knows that his party would loving lynch him if they could and i doubt he gets many dates anymore. yeah you could write him off as a sociopath and i wouldnt blame anyone who did, but i think he is just deeply loving alone and wants any kind of companionship. the amish were probably genuinly nice to him and he hasnt gotten that in a while, so now he wants to be a weird trad nut because he thinks he can replicate the feelings. he thinks if he basicaly buries himself in trad poo poo, the nazis will accept him.

I believe Marquette did a WI poll very recently that showed a dead heat, and they are well respected for state polls there. The +10 from this poll is a huge red-flag that they are fishing for a particular result.

The honest answer is a combination of abusing the legal system and the fact that it is a genuine powder keg situation. For all we mock the Trump loonies and their desire for civil war, the possibility of Trump being a martyr and sparking an uprising in violence or a wave of empathy is very possible. Everyone involved with going after him is doing their utmost to be as straightforward, fair and occasionally lenient as possible to minimize the chance that anyone but the most loony of the loonies will view it as rigged. This, combined with the natural +20 buff Trump gets for being a rich white man, means he's getting a whole lot of leniency.

In theory this wouldn't be an issue because even if it takes time everything he's facing is leading towards actual consequences for him. However he is an almost unique case of also being the presumptive nominee for one of the major political parties who has openly admitted he will nullify everything he can if he wins. And that should in theory not be an issue because the idea of an incredibly openly corrupt man who actively admits he did crimes he just wants immunity for them is something everyone prior to 2024 assumed would be electoral poison.

It's pretty key that this all boils down to if Trump wins or not. Like even if they shoved Trump's rear end in jail tomorrow and kept him there until the election was over, he still has a genuine shot at winning (and paradoxically being imprisoned would probably help him, which is why everyone is reluctant to do it for anything less than the most minor reasons.) But at the end of the day he is facing consequences, but none of them are actually going to stop him from running for President because our system isn't designed around the idea of an insanely corrupt madman with near-total support from one of the major parties and a significant number of voters running.

Remember, the key is not to actually take care of the children, given them happy lives or assure they are healthy. It is just that they are born. Once that happens they can die of easily preventable diseases and school shootings all they want.
