  1. its hard to even begin to put in to words how terrifying this is, even living in Texas which has always been Trumnpistan to a certain extent, this just feels different, it feels like someone or something has died. I'm not sure what I'm more fearful of, having to live here or the thought of being deported. I've lived here 14 years now and a green card holder due to marriage, I didn't pull the trigger on citizenship due to the sense that my UK passport might one day be my get out of jail card. I'm not sure if its a blessing or a curse.

     

    I'm now wondering what will happen to the long term safety of my job, with Musk on board I could see them winding down NASA in favour of SpaceX, at very least maybe making that loon the NASA administrator, it feels like something that might be sacrificed which just adds to the horrific sense of doom.

    I don't really understand the concept of undecided voters, given the choice that currently faces them. But I really REALLY don't understand the concept of an undecided voter that will now vote for Trump because someone tried to shoot him. People are radge. 

     

    Agreed, especially in a country where there is essentially a two party system and candidates who are utterly polarizing, you'd think you'd know who you were backing, unless you were firmly in the none of the above category

    Heard something today which I hope is bad analysis. Basically saying that this likely ends any prospect of Biden standing down, because the fragile state of US politics possibly now can't take an "I'm standing down" from Biden. 

     

    I hope it's wrong, but as excuses go for a bloke that already doesn't want to stand down, it's a pretty good one. 

     

    I think regardless of the Democratic candidate, this event has galvanized Trump's support, if its not too late already its shit or bust.

    On the plus side, his ludicrous bald bonce was exposed. 

     

    to be fair, the chances of the bullet exposing his brain were remote to say the least.

  5. She was a Cat 5 in the Gulf but thankfully just clipped the edge of the Yucatan Peninsula which weakened it, otherwise we'd have been fucked, I went through Hurricane Harvey which I think was a Cat 4 but thankfully we only got the outer bands, even that was absolute carnage

    Yeah, fucking close call !!! took a tree down across my fence but otherwise looks like we got by ok, went most of the day without power, I think there are 3 million Houstonians without power today, scary as fuck and this was only a cat 1 !
