I remember when adults smoked so fucking much they had to put ashtrays in car seats and we all thought it was perfectly normal.

So, what percentage of Democrats is disappointed that our brave Weapons Systems Officer was rescued? 30%? 50%?

Michigan opens as 7.5 point favorites against UConn. I will not look past the Huskies. They’ve proven it time and again. But this Michigan team may be the greatest team in the history of the sport.

🚨 Trump Could Cure Cancer: The media is stunned to report that President Trump has SOLVED the airports — on the busiest single travel day, yesterday in Atlanta airport history, TSA lines were almost NON-EXISTENT. President Trump paid TSA, sent in ICE, and look what happened. Competence prevails over Democrat traitors! Trump gets zero credit from the media! 🇺🇸

@johnkonrad I still look back at Woodstock fondly even though I was 5. Liked the sentiment but out in practice next 50 yrs was abysmal. Ppl like Neil Young raged against the man then only to be just like the man 59 yrs later

@johnkonrad Agree with some of this. My problem is I’m the youngest boomer (end Nov, 64). But identify more with genx. Late 70’s when 14/15 did hate disco but liked the 60’s drugs/love. But I still maintain that the older boomers from Woodstock generation is what has ruined America now.

You really can’t explain how bad education was in the 80s because of young liberal boomer teachers. Tucker tries here but doesn’t go far enough . They like to portray themselves as organic free love hippies but the youngest boomers were four years old when that era ended. The oldest boomers were mostly great but the defining moment for younger boomers was the 70s. Cocaine. Disco. Polyester. Urban decay. Hard drugs. Hard sex. Plastics.Pollution. They taught my generation (late X) that EVERYTHING was going to kill you. Oral sex will give you AIDS. Being gay is a death sentence. The rain forests are dying. Acid rain is melting our brains. All food is laced with DDT. The whales are extinct. And if a nuclear meltdown doesn’t kill you, nuclear war will. Liberal boomers are so selfish because they genuinely believe the world has no future. So you might as well raid Wall Street, vote in entitlements and snort cocaine. It’s really two very different generations. Those born 1945 to 1951 did have some free love, and the based ones did fight in Vietnam. The defining moment was March 31, 1968. Right after the media told everyone we “lost” the Tet Offensive and LBJ withdrew from reelection. If you were born 1945 to early 1950 and turned 18 before Nixon’s election, you had some hope left. You’re a Boomer. You suffered massive disappointment but still believe America can recover. There was some momentum after that. Some hope Nixon would save the nation. But by the 1970 midterms that was gone. So those born 1950 to 1952 are a mixed bag. But if you turned 18 after 1970, you are not a Boomer. You’re a Doomer. Now, of course, there are many great Doomers. They got educated at levels unprecedented. Not just books but hands-on training and experience. Some of my favorite people are Doomers because the based ones ignored politics, hated disco, and focused on their work. We got great blue collar workers and fantastic white collar engineers. (That said, even the best have something broken inside them.) But the vast majority of Doomers in soft jobs are the absolute worst. And the worst of the worst were the liberal ones in jobs around kids. This is why they are such hands-off grandparents. Subconsciously they don’t think their grandkids will live to 30. Pesticides, or global warming, or “orange man starting WW3” will kill their grandchildren. If the nation is doomed anyway then why not open the borders to the third world? They are also subconsciously angry at God too, for dooming them. Doomers are responsible for the hollowing out of religion. If your grandkids won’t live to 30 and God hates them so heaven isn’t possible, then what’s the point of nurturing and educating them? Now I’m not saying they are consciously aware of this. No Doomer wakes up & says “my Grandkids are screwed so I’m going to rob their saving”, that’s not how human nature works. They love their grandchildren. They want a better future for all. They just can’t believe it’s possible so subconsciously they make selfish decisions. My dad (the oldest in his family) was born in 1945. Mom was born in 1950. I have aunts & uncles born in the early fifties. There is a massive difference in their friend groups. Dad’s cohort was polarized. They are either devoutly religious, devout anti-communist, hard workers, or idealistic peace-loving hippies. Mom’s cohort is all over the place with both Boomer & Doomer traits. My Doomer aunts & uncles are firmly different. They either have the work hard, die hard mentality or they are greedy nihilists. P.S. It wasn’t all bad. The reason the 80s & early 90s were such a revival is because the Boomers worked their asses off & hated commies & the based Doomers embraced “greed is good” capitalism. Ignoring their kids (Gen X was free range) gave them time to work more. We got the internet revolution in the late 90s because the best of Gen X wanted to build something completely new, apart from the Doomers.
Wolf 🐺@WorldByWolf

Boomers as a generation are just the worst. My parents are boomers so no I’m not saying they’re all bad but as a whole they are just the worst people. Selfish, arrogant, patronising, destructive, solipsistic, self-righteous, feudal, and they destroyed centuries of social fabric.

@PoliticsOnX I actually have a legitimate question. Why is he jerking like that? Every so often he flinches or jerks or something in his sleep?! What is that? Is that the drugs, or some kind of nervous tick - it's concerning - above everything that's already concerning obviously!

@PaulCharchian What the hell is wrong with Souhan? Anybody who has lived here since the last World Series know that the Pohlads have been arguably the worst owners in MLB when it comes to their fans

@GlobalBowen @rickygervais I tried watching that new stand up he did. Had to turn it off after 15 minutes. After listening to that much only the British could think that was free speech. Only funny if you live in a free speech devoid country. He was much better on Letterman years ago.

Ricky Gervais laughs way too much in his podcasts. Is it really that funny? I honestly don’t find him funny. I think he's fucking stupid.

My Daughter came over to tell me her daughter heard that I had brain cancer. 🙄 She took this photo and sent it to me to upload to prove I'm not ill. The people who are ill are those that are spreading these ridiculous stories. I'm fit as a fiddle. You don't have to worry.

Bondi should have been fired the day after the Epstein binder fiasco, which was one of the dumbest, most gratuitous and wholly unnecessary stunts I’ve ever seen in politics. I’m glad she’s gone now. We need someone who will actually do things. Not pretend to do things.
