Nah, we’re doing pirate themed revolutions this year.

That kid is a moron, but I don’t see how he committed a crime.

That would actually be incredible for me.
If there’s anything I have learned from politics is that these things are cyclical. What people are panicking over in November will be forgotten by spring. Things change rapidly, and narratives change dramatically from week to week. A year from now, the economy could be looking significantly better or worse.

Everything is in flux, so it’s usually best not to emotionally overreact to everything, take a long term perspective and approach, evaluate things in aggregate, and not make hasty decisions until it’s time to actually cast a vote.
It’s all about the economy and improving conditions for blue collar and white collar citizens.
On the flip side, is Goff for Stafford the BEST trade in history? It somehow improved both teams tremendously.
I can’t wait to spend $16 for this with no fries or drink.
Good. The CFPB was nothing more than a globalist woke shakedown gestapo destroying any businesses who refused to support globohomo or who dared to innovate in ways that might compete with the multinational cartels that control most major industries. The CFPB were instrumental in the de-platforming and de-banking of conservative groups, pundits, and social media influencers as well as arms manufacturers, crypto companies, and tech startups developing disruptive technologies.

They were doing so all while simultaneously insulated from any oversight by Congress or even the President. Just a completely unconstitutional economic secret police.
The City and the Parish are simultaneously the same yet distinct entities. The long term goal is to split them apart again, but that cannot feasibly be accomplished without massive disruptions to government services (to both city AND parish residents) until that debt is dealt with. This debt was accumulated by previous administrations, NOT the current one.

This compromise helps fix the immediate budget crisis without raising taxes or disrupting public services. It also helps clear the way to reconsolidating the city/parish government in the future.

Like I have said previously, this plan is not perfect, but it is a step in the right direction. All of the long term goals the conservative detractors have are actually FURTHERED by this initiative and sabotaged by opposing it.

The detractors on this board are allowing the perfect to be the enemy of the good, rejecting pragmatic incrementalism in favor of demanding bigger changes for which little political will currently exists, and are objectively collectively cutting their noses to spite their faces.

Honestly, if I could find a job that allowed me to do that, I probably would. Honestly, I just need any job right now. This market is baaaad.
Landry actually has changed the makeup of the BOS significantly since then.
It reduces the bloat at the council on aging and the libraries. That’s a start.
I’ll believe it when I see it and not a moment before.
So I was wrong: the bomber wasn’t an FBI Agent. They were capital police?
THRIVE is being pushed by the Republicans
Good. Trying to outlaw hemp in the middle of a funding bill is chickenshit.

I am someone who is likely to keep buying what I was always buying and will pay a bit more.


I am someone who has already cut my food budget to the bone and can't really cut it any further. I need the job market to start improving so I can make more income. I already almost never eat beef or most seafood because it's unaffordable. Chicken keeps going up and up and getting closer to unaffordability for me. I'm basically getting by via stretching cheap cuts of pork as far as possible over rice and beans for at least half of my meals. I've even had to give up on buying a fair number of fruits and vegetables that were once common in my fridge. All of the snack foods and breakfast items are long gone. Alcohol is a luxury bought sparingly. I'm still mostly cooking real food, but if prices go up any further, I'll be on strictly struggle meals (i.e. ramen and canned meat) from here on out until I can find a job.
Yeah, that's why Kansas got the Death Penalty for their coach being caught on a wire tap paying the player Will Wade allegedly made an offer on. Oh, wait? Kansas didn't get the death penalty!? They didn't fire their coach!? They didn't even get sanctioned!?

In what possible way could any sanctions have been worse than the results of LSU firing Will Wade? I would have preferred the Death Penalty over watching the completely atrocious, hopeless, feckless, fightless teams we've fielded for the past 3 seasons. No sanctions that the NCAA would have throne at us (ie ZERO as evidenced by their treatment of Kansas) would have been even half as debilitating as the end result of firing Will Wade.
Our economy was systematically and purposely destroyed, our institutions fully discredited, and no one responsible was held accountable, so yes.
