Back in the hippy era he was talking about the spaceships coming for us (After the Gold Rush). I think it was around the year 2000 he got to promoting the environment and challenging big business to do something about it. I remember seeing him on Colbert (when he was on the comedy channel) and he said "hey, I thought you were the guy waiting for the Silver Seed?" and Neil said no more, now it's about protecting what we have. Trivia question: Before he headed for California he was in a Toronto band run by someone who would later be a big pop music personality -- the answer is so out there I'll let you guys do the search yourself.

Inside scoop: BBC wanted him to do "YMCA" as a tribute to the next US president, that's why he pulled out. Beeb dropped the requirement, now it's smiles and handshakes all around. The above sentences contain zero percent truth. I hear ya, but I learned from hanging around Bkk that Scots are quite proud of their Roddy, so careful as you go.

Sounds like someone bought a few of those million-dollar inauguration tickets.

Maybe the chicken fat on Somkiat's hands helped.

I might be off by a few days here, but I think he did his first firing within 11 days in his last WH stint. With EM's money, he has enough to buy his own country and still have enough for a flotilla of yachts. They need to bring back Celebrity Deathmatch, have these two clowns settle their score. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0208614

They made him zookeeper?

Suspect that he spends the night wherever he falls down drunk. Look at that nose, I wonder if he dried out in prison. BTW, the guy is supposedly quite wealthy, and was before he got into politics.

Gee, that almost sounds like a threat. And how would this fierce opposition from MAGA supporters be carried out? Maybe Mitt Romney can provide the answer. https://www.thedailybeast.com/elon-musk-turns-maga-civil-war-nuclear-fk-yourself-in-the-face/ Some may recall that the graphic language of the EM quote in the link is quite similar to something a member of the 45th WH quipped about Stevie; maybe he was on to something. https://www.dailydot.com/debug/anthony-scaramucci-new-yorker-interview-ryan-lizza/ Maybe a little bit of jealousy with all the access the MAGA boss is giving the aging boy wonder, eh Stevie?

So they believe in an all-knowing omnipotent god, yet that god wants them to do the killing for them. What?!? Insinuating that his god is incapable and needs a wretch like himself to do his work? Hubris as such will keep you out of Paradise, laddy! I would think the stuff going on in Gaza makes for good recruitment material.

Why is the Dem party so toxic? Probably for the same reason the Republicans are so adverse to fact-checking.

This guy has sent a few to the dump. Seems like ol' Pete has become bored of it.

MAGA 101, the guy at the top does this daily. Blame the adversary for your own dirty deeds, in a very loud, emphatic way. Hey, it works for the boss.

What time do you hit the sack? I aim for midnight. With diabetes, something wakes me around 4a. I have a small snack, and if lucky I'll sleep through till around 7:30a. Chocolate has caffeine, y'know.

Something both of these guys have in common is they both played a crucial role in DT getting elected. Bannon: when the Access Hollywood tape was revealed, DT was ready to drop out of the 2016 race that very day. All his other goons were for it, but the guy with three shirts convinced him to brass it out. The space guy who won't ride his own rocket: latest count published at this time is over US$275 million (look it up yourself) that arguably served the re-election well. And he still has plenty more $$$, he has probably had banking fees bigger than that. DT has to do a balancing act between EM and Big Oil, one makes electric cars and the other promotes fossil fuels. I wonder how many plots are currently being considered to banish the co-president, even by those who bend the knee for DT appear to be standing up to him. Remember his open statement asking the a billion dollars? It sounds like they bought in. https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-asked-oil-ceos-for-1-billion Hey, what became of all that concern about the "poison blood of foreigners"? Does that include EM and Melania? Does that mean four of his offspring are tainted? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/trump-says-immigrants-are-poisoning-blood-country-biden-campaign-liken-rcna130141

The thing is none of the other countries in the region really give darn about Palestinians, otherwise they would have done something about it within the past 70+ years. Maybe the Egyptians did for a while back in the 1960s, but that was pretty much a USSR action. How many of those Gulf states have refugee camps for them? Every so often they'll toss them a few million, but we know how that works. That said, this "what stance will Qatar take?" stuff is a non-starter.

For once you can say "go back to Africa" and not have libs denounce you!!

I can see it now, DT says to Zelensky "look, all you have to do is surrender to snookums, err, I mean Putin, and we will all live in peace." MAGA is not about thinking, it's about following. Taking DT at his word about ANYTHING? It takes a certain kind of person . . .

This stuff in this thread certainly bears a resemblance to discussions of the origins of AIDS in the 1980s.

It's great to see these creeps going at each other.

At the routine traffic stop if he whipped out a US$20 note he would have been out of there with a wave of the hand. But there may be something else involved, like LE knew where the stop would lead, I mean, checkpoints on Xmas? There's no way to know for sure, but I am curious as to which country the coke was headed to.

Huh? Smuggling weed into India? This makes as much sense as bringing coffee into Brazil. They have some of the best in the world, or at least did. That whole area from Afghanistan to Nepal is where it is. Granted it has been more than 40 years since I've been there. In certain states it is (was?) legal. My guess is the hydroponic stuff is something to show off for the wealthy, though there is no reason they can't grow it that way over there. The more imported things you have the more hiso you are over there. Another guess is they can say they are not smoking the garbage the riksha drivers do (best garbage on the planet).

Could have hid out in Pattaya, fit right in.

His reputation for "having a strong sense of himself" precedes him. I think he's reveling in all the attention: he's gone from coming up with publicity stunts to being pursued by the press -- nice work there buddy! And I suspect a certain US politician demanding the full limelight will be butting heads with him. Film at 11.

They fell from a coconut tree? I hate it when I have to call the police because of all the near-naked women.

There's enough material there for two wives.
