I refer to my 2 dogs as "my children" all the time, to the point that when I'm calling them both in from outside, I throw open the door and shout "Children!" Or when they're being annoying, I'm like "Children, stop!"

So I would just have to shout the word "Children!" And they'd come to me.

That's me. I'm a fucking idiot when it comes to computer shit.

I feel like a goddamned wizard just opening up command prompt lmao.

So no, I've never booted from a USB. I definitely believe that I'm the minority on here though.

And I don't watch Star Trek either.

Why am I even here?

Okay you just need to stop pursuing higher education lmao.

I graduated with my associates in 2008, which is how I ended up joining the military later that year.

Bruh just this MORNING, on Lemmy, under an article about Kerrville rejecting emergency management funding from the Biden admin, there was this comment:

"Children of Republican parents grow up to become Republican voters"

YES it was in context with the Camp Mystic deaths. YES it had upvotes.

And it was so fucking disgusting to see.

Thanks for your support, I can't wait for us to vote together!

Lets take those Republican dicks to the ringer! See you at the polls!

So this is an example of the Lefty infighting we're always lamenting.

I legit thought Allred was it. I donated to his campaign the second I heard he was running.

He had the political chops since he had turned a deep red district in Dallas blue for the first time ever, and held it every time he was up for re-election.

He's a former NFL player, which I thought was going to be a big deal to the backwater Texans.

He is Black, so all the racist Texans could point at him and be like "We CAN'T be racist! We voted for a BLACK man to be our SENATOR!"

And finally, he didn't fucking have the devastating out-of-context Beto sound bit "Hell yeah we're taking your guns!" to plague him endlessly.

FUCK I let myself get so optimistic, and I'm still really, REALLY bitter about it.

Right? Like for fuck's sake, he could have at LEAST pressured Merrick Garland to do his goddamned job!

I have been saying this for years, as someone who lives in Texas: If the Dems stopped talking about "taking away guns", then Progressive policies/candidates would win in landslide elections constantly.

I voted for Beto, donated to his campaign, had his yard sign, etc. But I knew that sound clip was going to haunt him forever.

I literally hide my eyes and gag laugh pretty much every time these guys are on screen. My husband thinks its hysterical because I find them to be hilarious but they make my stomach wretch.

Right? Like I feel like I've read how he's "broken ranks" like 93 times already.

I think the list of times he's voted with the Democrats would be shorter/more notable.

Dawwww! He looks like an adorable angry soot sprite from Spirited Away! <3
