Sitting in the corner... holding my tongue as I spoke my mind and told R.GMN what I felt and think he should do. I hate that he keeps this place hostile.

He does literally make stuff up about the context that people say stuff in specifically to cause unnecessary arguments. It's so hard not to have a normal response to that crap lol.

Same here. Only one post today outside of the Lounge about car audio on the entire site. The rest has been non stop political bashing and it’s seemingly driven most of the user base away. Then I get blamed when members don’t want to follow the rules, catch an attitude and ask to have their account banned and I actually take their advice. My fault, I realize. I should just let what’s left of the site continue with constant political discussion and berating of me and others.

As I’ve said for years, I can’t win. It’s over.

I try to post or help with box stuff wherever I can, point out a thread that needs help with box stuff and I'll help whenever I can. That's my main speciality, I'm not as up to date or useful on equipment and stuff.

I appreciate it and not blaming anyone in particular. I guess it’s just too much politics and bashing. Google has also deranked and delisted the site again recently, that doesn’t help either. Not sure if because I decided to include the lounge posts on the homepage, or some other reason. It’s just a big guessing game with them. I honestly think this is most frustrating experience I’ve ever had with a “job venture”. Not sure where to turn now, as I hate to close the site. But I mean, bills have to be paid to run it and they currently aren’t fully. Adsense doesn’t pay diddly. Notice how many YouTube influencers now have to include special promotions or make money off product commissions these days? Adsense used to pay half decent and that’s also how YouTubers get paid. Half the video seems to be them trying to sell something. Google has them by the throats and that’s their day jobs… Google stock hitting all new highs to boot.

I took AP stats actually...should've taken calculus.

Still don't have proof he was right wing, just an assumption.

Just give it a few years on the AI stuff, it's still coming. Going to take some time to build up.

I sure hope you see the irony in that post.

Only a person obsessed with ALWAYS being right would care.

Or a guy who insists he is right, but is simply unable to prove it.

Still working on that proof of your claim that humans do not have innate rights?

If you posted it and I missed it, please share a link to the post. Otherwise please post it for a first time.

So, basically all this jargon, you just spewed, is telling us you can't defend Biden after his daughter said he showered with her? We thought so.

"Jargon". You mean Ashley Biden's OWN words to the court, about her OWN experiences, and her OWN diary ?

Obviously, you know more about it all than she does.
Please, enlighten us all on HER life.

This interview you just quoted was not her first one, on this topic. She mentioned it in her first phone call interview and responded by saying "it probably wasn't appropriate." That's a lot more evidence than what you have to show about Trump being a ****** and *********.

Yeah, court decisions and lawsuits be damned.
None of that stuff means anything, when dealing with a guy who admits grabbing women's crotches.
Good stuff.

Even Snopes, a left leaning media group, changed their report from "unclaimed" to "True."

Fact Check: Posts Claim Contents of 'Ashley Biden's Diary' Have Been Verified. Here Are the Facts

The existence of a diary and the authenticity of purported facsimiles of a diary are two entirely different questions.

www.yahoo.com

"True" that her diary was stolen, and pages were published.
And?

Oh man I'll rant forever about YouTube and google. Yeah I've listened to several YouTube creators talk about the slow shift from ads then delisting to then ads again but now you also need merch to make it even to YouTube even charging people negative revenue. That's always how they get us all with everything. We get hopes and dreams and then they crunch down on greed. That's what the technocracy is, control of all of our lives through technology. We're putting the chains on ourselves by entering their techno cult.

Yea I suppose I’m a hypocrite being a YouTube premium member, feeding the devil, but I hate ads. Like I said, a big part of the videos are influencers trying to sell something themselves to make ends meet. Didn’t used to be this way at all. Google knows they’ve cornered the market and can start squeezing them by lowering their rate of the ad commissions in vids. A lot of them have put years into building their channels up and can easily be wiped off the map due to low ad revenues. A bit like they’ve done to this site over the past few years.

The morbidly obese one calls someone else a "fat slob".
Ironic.

This is what the dumpling has to say for a Thanksgiving tradition.
What a frigging idiot.

The president focused on Chicago, declaring once again that he could clean up crime in America's third-largest city if only Illinois Governor JB Pritzker – whom he branded a "fat slob" – would let him send in federal troops.

Then came the Biden hit: Trump said US officials conducted a "very rigorous investigation" and discovered that last year's turkey pardon was signed not by the then-president but by an autopen – rendering the whole thing invalid.
