Trump golfs very frequently. The guy had brought food with him. Seems pretty clear that he didn't know when Trump would go golfing, just that it was a given that he would before too long and he could just wait.

Maybe they're just not common in the places I frequent. Can't remember the last time I've seen one, but that doesn't mean they're not around somewhere.

Yeah, but some people need to take polygraphs and swear they don't do little things like pirate media or smoke pot. I'm not even kidding. The stupidest little thing will be made a big deal of. It's easier to mostly follow the rules. Mostly.

You know, your comment was very helpful.

I know that all of these megacorps sponsor all sorts of philanthropic causes for PR and tax purposes. But I also know how evil Nestle is and I don't find it difficult to not buy their products. ...until I just looked up who's paying for my meds.

But thank you, you are right. I'm using up their money and giving them nothing back.

More cognitive impairments equals more human, right?

I kind of hate dad jokes, but you got me there.

The sheer, unmitigated corruption and violence that comes from police departments and courts (especially looking at you, "Supreme" Court) is utterly disheartening. I sincerely do not see a way forward without violence, and I am not a proponent of violence. But things have gotten so bad, the people have so few protections and so few people in power on their side. What are you supposed to do when voting doesn't matter because of corruption, gerrymandering, voter intimidation, disenfranchisement?

Where do we go from here when there is no one with power or in the mainstream political sphere who is even trying to correct it?

Yes, we have Bernie and AOC, but two people can't do a thing.

I'm guessing you haven't heard of Killology. They are literally trained to see the populace as dangerous enemy combatants, and they have fewer rules of engagement than soldiers do abroad. So they shoot whoever and whatever the fuck they want, and get away with it.

They do and have publicly stated as much.

I'm not so sure of your solution, but as an Mbinner....

Sure would be great if the farmers would stop giving all their livestock antibiotics, causing a big part of this problem to begin with.

 

About 4 years ago, I watched a movie which I enjoyed but can't for the life of me find. It involved a white couple getting lost in deep rural Appalachia and getting taken in by a cult-like small family in the middle of nowhere.

I don't remember the details very well since it was a few years ago and I watched it pretty late at night. I think it involved the woman being drawn in while the man wasn't, and there being murder (in a shed?), but that could be me mixing different movies up.

Does anyone know what it might have been?
