>I'm being a dick because you're posting FAKE NEWS that makes you feel good about your uninformed opinions and incorrect assumptions. Try being an adult, doing the research, doing the work, challenging yourself, and accept when the facts are against you and your position is unsustainably wrong. We already have too many dithering old fools on this site who make up the truth as they go along. Don't be them. LOL this is absolutely wild. Gammanu lecturing someone about what he himself needs to do, after his lies about hacks into Hillary Clinton's server were thoroughly discredited: https://tuscl.net/discussion/82923

Sort of interesting, but will agree it means very little. Apple News has a somewhat click-bait feel to it, so I'm not a fan. Reuters is a respected news company that doesn't generally buy in to conspiracy theories, hence the understandable attempts to discredit it from the far right.

Did you really say you were on a strip club journey at the Canadian border ? LOL They have threads on other boards dedicated to what to say at the border crossing. Anyways, sounds like some great adventures there Muddy. We salute you.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcWXCaXQmKI

Nixur, I can't speak for all of Canada, but in Toronto/Mississauga and Montreal (and some of the cities in between) there are numerous places like Allure, with the offerings I described. I believe they are licensed as body rub parlors in the bylaws, so there is no pretense that it's just a professional massage. They advertise openly, including websites with photos of the girls and rooms and list of options. 4-hands, Nuru, and various fetishes are available depending on the spa. Some have "sampler" options where you can divide up the hour between 2 or even 3 ladies. You can check out some of the websites to get an idea. In Toronto I have used Allure, Flirt, Muse, Seduction, Premier, Steeles Royale, Airport Golden, etc. you can see there are literally hundreds of hot chicks working at these places. In Montreal, LePenthouse and Avalon are a couple good ones. Feel free to PM me if you have more questions.

There is a vast spectrum of massage, and the US massage scene IMO is in the bottom quartile. If you can travel outside the US, there are many countries with better options, spanning all manner of massage settings and experiences, some you probably don't even realize exist. I have been in the hobby many years, and clubs and massage places have been equal drivers of my adventures. Massage places can have some of the hottest girls, because they offer a format for those who want to keep things very private and/or to make good money without having sex. That's funny Allure is the #1 club on TUSCL, lol. It's an MP, with hot girls and among the nicest amenities you will find anywhere. Decent massage with HJ, but edging and Russian are often available too. There are another 10-20 good places in Toronto like this, some with higher mileage. While Allure is lower mileage, it has a reputation for consistent high quality of service and girls.

>In late April, I put about 80% of my life’s savings into Tesla stock. It’s up 60% since then. A bold and great call Mark. Up another 14 bucks today so near +70% since you got in. You must be thinking about taking some off the table.

Tetradon's last post = right wing deception Inflation has been a global issue, due to a combination of a historic pullback in spending during Covid and disruption in supply chains. Net result = tremendous imbalance of demand outpacing supply post-Covid. Biden's spending was a real but minor contributor in the US. The CPI is now down to about 4%, from about 9% last year. We've done much better than Europe. The Price Is Right: U.S. Inflation Hits Two-Year Lows In May https://www.forbes.com/advisor/investing/current-inflation-rate/

Thanks The Harris poll from June 14-15 (which they link to) shows the abortion poll results on slide 31: 47% (not 64%) of voters favor a law that would ban most abortions after six weeks They only get to the 64% number when they lump several questions (such as taxes) together. Of course, most people want lower taxes. Looks kind of sneaky.

>Bad stuff that happened from 2016-2020: Trump fucking things up Mark again you are spreading false information. I never said that. He didn't fuck things up, he had it easy and the main thing he did was help rich people like himself get richer at the expense of the federal debt.

^ No, I was transparent that Covid was not Trump's fault and to focus the argument on pre-Covid, which is clearly what Republicans want to do. The deception here is squarely on the right wingers, who want to conveniently ignore Covid as they try to pin inflation, etc. entirely on Biden. Oh, and ridiculous statements like Biden "destroyed the economy".

>64% of voters say they would want to live in a state that cuts taxes, encourages public charter schools, does not allow gender surgery for minors, and restricts most abortions after six weeks. Mark, where do you get that 64% of voters favor restricting abortions after six weeks ? Link please.

^ That list is mostly the result of Trump riding Obama's coattails. There are many charts you can pull up that show it was a continuation of strong trends in place for many years under Obama. It also ignores Covid, which while not Trump's fault, turned many things upside down and lead to metrics that show the country was in much worse shape when he left office, the standard metric for judging a president. So to play along with the narrative above, we must focus only on pre-Covid. In this context, Trump had it easy, inheriting a strong economy from Obama, no wars and no fallout from Covid. What can we truly attribute to Trump? - A giant tax cut where 70% of the savings went to the richest 5%. - Meanwhile, the federal debt went up from $14 trillion to $21 trillion. - Global opinion of US sank to historic lows. Trump was a one-term president for a good reason, and he only got that one term with help from a sophisticated Russian campaign of interference approved by Putin, who had determined that a Trump White House would help secure Moscow’s strategic objectives. That alone should give Americans pause. Trump's conduct since he lost in 2020 has proven him wholly unworthy of serving as President again. Republicans should pick another candidate like Chris Christie, who did a nice job in the CNN Town Hall last week.

I agree with 25 that gammanu is a glutton for punishment. >from wld4cocks own article link: "DOJ IG: FBI Failed to Review Classified Info ‘Potentially Relevant’ to Email Investigation before Exonerating Clinton" How "low-information" can you get than to not even read past the headline, and link to 5-7 year old articles that disprove your own claim? That is a "related article" on the 2nd link I posted, and has nothing to do with the topic of hacking. The search term "hack" doesn't even show up in that article. What a total red herring. The article is also from 2019, 4 years ago. The only 5-7 year old articles are the multiple articles gammanu posted from 2016, which can be easily verified in the URLs without even clicking on them. I would say gammanu is math-challenged too, but the more likely explanation is that he is backed into a corner and flailing. Anyone following the back and forth and checking the links can see that gammanu has lied repeatedly.

>Wildforpenis just got flicking smashed lol. Skibum just outed himself as a low information voter lol

The problem with gammanu's articles is that none of them have substantiated evidence. Most of them are speculative with statements "probably hacked", "subject of hacking attempts", "hackers really did try" etc. The hacker Guccifer later admitted his claim was a lie. None are supported by the later reports from Trump's FBI in 2018 and the Republican Senate in 2019. Gammanu continues to lie and ignore the facts to save face. Truly pathetic. If he had a shred of integrity, he would admit his claim has never been proven.

>...unsecured server which we know to have been hacked and repeatedly accessed by our enemies > ^ It's common knowledge, just Google it you lazy bastard All gammanu needs to do is provide a link showing evidence of his claim above, which he double-downed on. Otherwise, he'll be known as a right wing liar on TUSCL.

^ ha good one I approve as well

Judging from recent posts, nothing that gammanu or mark post is to be believed. They have reverted to the slimy far right wing strategy of posting false information without substantiation, and seeing how long it "sticks". The Trump defenders are on their heels and getting desperate.

As someone in the center-left lane of politics, this trans stuff is boggling and certainly not in my top 20 list of important issues. My best guess is there have been various pockets of activism on the left, that the right magnified into some big issue for the entire country, and the tide of political correctness has allowed it to progress farther in some cases than it should. Letting "women" who used to be men compete against biological women is crazy. It's hard to tell the real scale of the issue though, with Fox News finding some new trans story to run on their front page every week, in a country of 330 million.

Fiona Hill, Alexander Vindman, Lois Lerner - Mark I had to do some googling on those names to get their stories straight. Turns out the first two were Trump appointees or hires, that later became critical of him, like countless other Trump appointees did. Lerner never worked under Trump. As expected, the notion from Mark and gammanu that Obama carryovers obstructed right wing objectives and worked to expand government under Trump is all right wing horseshit, if these are the best examples they got.

The cabinet level, and (to a lesser extent) other positions the President controls, run things and determine policy. mark and gammanu would have us believe there were still lower-level staffers in these departments, carry-overs from Obama, that continued to expand government, further left wing objectives and obstruct right wing objectives, despite reporting into Trump-appointed, Republican leadership. And somehow, Trump was unable to stop it. Care to share a couple of examples?

Actually, Trump cleaned house and made his own appointments, just like every President does. The idea that only Democrats staff the government to their liking, and that most of Obama's appointees are still there, is laughable. This example of right wing misinformation gets a "pants on fire" rating. IRS- Charles Paul Rettig, appointed by Trump in 2018 FBI- Christopher Wray, appointed by Trump in 2017 DOJ- Jeff Sessions, appointed by Trump in 2017 DOJ- William Barr, appointed by Trump in 2019 CIA- Mike Pompeo, appointed by Trump in 2017 CIA- Gina Haspel, appointed by Trump in 2018 SOS- Rex Tillerson, appointed by Trump in 2017 SOS- Mike Pompeo, appointed by Trump in 2019 DOD- Jim Mattis, appointed by Trump in 2017 DOD- Mark T. Esper, appointed by Trump in 2019

Tetradon, this thread was #bait, you weren't supposed to reply to it lol

Trump is where he is because of his giant ego. And because he learned from his casino and other businesses that you can sell a dream to some people and they will buy into it hook, line and sinker. Despite solid evidence against him in the indictment, he's got some of his followers believing that it's all about government corruption, for which there is no evidence in relation to this indictment. And now he's fundraising off his followers yet again.

When there is compelling evidence, authenticated by credible sources, then I'll believe it and support an indictment based on the seriousness of the offense. Until then, it's all "more right wing bullshit". Just like the Hillary Clinton emails which the right wing is now reviving and peddling as comparable to Trump's crimes, which is complete bullshit intended to manipulate MAGA voters.
