The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

As long as the media refuses to call his firehose of complete bullshit, complete bullshit, and Trumpedosplains the bullshit into something closer to a rational thought, we're doomed.

That.

I've posted once or twice about two friends who worked at USA Today and WAPO.

I asked them why, for the love of dog, did the writers pussyfoot around, using euphemisms for liar, lying, lied, lies.

They said they had to be politic. Very disappointing.

Coddling liars only emboldens liars to lie more.
