    Just got my new property tax assessment, my property value dropped by $141.00.

    Pretty sure Biden saved me more last year for Independence Day cookout :lol:

    It's asinine, don't give an eff who you are, if you think it's right and OK, you are mentally deranged just like the dude that thinks he's a chick.

    This is participation trophy induced BS through and through. If you can't win, don't worry, we'll still give you a trophy has changed to, we're going to teach you that you don't have to be a boy or girl if you choose not to be. Shaming parents for gender assignment because their son or daughter was born with genitalia designating such as fact.

    These liberal and woke mother effers are denying reality, based only on their new definiton of "science" that fits no other definition of "Science" since it's inception.

    Now the new trophy is just to give up on training and hard work to achieve your goals and switch sexes, only it isn't going both ways. How many "males" who are biologically female are in headlines for dominating their sport?

    It's kind of hilarious when you think about it, all the bitching and clamoring for equal pay in sports, and now you're going to have your top paid female athletes sporting penises :lol:

    So, as some of you may recall, I have a niece who is a competitive swimmer (went to the Olympic trials last year, didn’t make the cut)…she’s now in collegiate swimming. Apparently swam in the meet last week and many parents of young women swimmers are/were quite opposed and vocal at the ncaa meet…

    I bet they are, all the love, money and support given to their children to achieve their goal and have a chance to fulfill their dream, then everything changes as mental disabilities are not only praised but coddled to as equals.

    Why do we need separate sport divisions anymore, lets put everyone at the same level. Get rid of weight classes in fighting sports, we do not need highschool, college and professional levels. If you identify as an athlete you compete amongst other athletes as coequals.

    There is no difference between the comparisons.

    a society which cannot agree on fundamental realities- what a man or a woman is; or even when life begins (Maryland Dems just introduced a bill which would permit infanticide up to 28 days POST BIRTH) is not a society at all.

    That's The Goal.

    I read the scariest effing thing I have ever read yesterday on ZeroHedge. Was a long article, but worth the read. We are already in deep dookie, but wait till these crazy effers are running the entire legal system:

    The state of NC recently enacted a law that will help 1,000’s of truck owners increase their odds of getting laid…

    https://www.npr.org/2021/12/03/1061200749/carolina-squat-squatted-trucks-suvs-illegal-north-carolina

    I am pretty libertarian and usually opposed to most government regulations such as this one, but I am willing to make an exception here because squatted trucks are up there with eating tide pods as far as stupid trends. It's basically just ruining a perfectly good truck for the sake of ruining it. Why would anybody want their truck to emulate the look of a ***** dog taking a piss in the yard? Squatting a truck literally only serves two purposes: one is to make the truck nearly incapable of being used for any of the tasks that one would actually use a truck for (hauling, towing, off-road) and the other is to warn the general public that the owner is a complete loser who has been unable to get laid for so long that they have become truly desperate.

    We are in the middle of a truck shortage so instead of ruining a truck by squatting it, why not sell that truck to one of the thousands of people out there who desperately need a truck because they actually do **** that requires a truck. Then you can use that money to buy a Honda Civic and slap a husqvarna muffler, some neon lights, a few sparco racing decals, and a big wing on it; that would be just as effective at demonstrating to everybody on tiktok that you are still a loser and you would even have money left over to spend on hair gel and Abercrombie & Fitch shirts.

    Just finished my last shift on my patrol squad. Been with this current group for 5 years and we sure have been through a lot of stuff together. That wasn't easy.
