I avoid amazon if at all possible but my girlfriend uses it a lot. Im hoping that one day i can convince her to dump it

Even if you use it, no need to pay for Prime, you get free shipping if you spend $35.

It's probably a lot better for the environment to combine your orders to reach that instead of just ordering every little thing on a whim.

One would think, but I still get multiple packages on different days from a single order. It probably makes sense from a logistics standpoint, but if it saved energy, I'd be more than willing to add shipment time to my order to save it.

I don't have prime, most things I order together, arrive together in one box, though sometimes something is delayed and arrives separately.

I don't have prime either. I have an order coming soon. If everything's according to schedule, I have crossbow bolts coming tomorrow, and sardines and phone screen protectors coming Saturday. Same order.

Looks like the forgot to add, In the last 10 years.

Michael Moore's fahrenheit 911 opened to 24-25M the first week, and over 200M total.
For a non-musical documentary.

I see so many MAGAts using "biggest in the past 10 years!" shit to help make it not look like the failure it is. What documentaries have come out in the past 10 years? I know there have been some, but that's gonna be the least-released genre of movie. Saying you had the biggest documentary of the past decade isn't much of a flex.

Another fact about it, it's the highest grossing movie ever named Melania.

Just checking Melania seats sold for today's showings in Tallahassee. Six showings, 453 seats available, 50 sold.
Click to expand...

I just checked here, 1 showing has 2 seats. The rest are empty. I'm guessing Tallahassee must be MAGA heavy, because while 50 isn't a lot. It's 25x what I'm seeing here. I'm sure MAGAs would find a way to spin that info into making it look like a success lol. "it got 25x the viewers here!"

Melania's on pace to make a whopping $250k this week.

As I was walking thw dog on the crusted snow, with dog shit all over the surface because it is frozen in, it struck me as a good analogy for the Trump administration. The world is a mess until it melts and goes away.

This is Republicans basically admitting that Trump sinking approvals have dragged their own private generic ballot polling into Senate flip territory. If the national environment is D+6/7/8 they are in deep shit no matter how much money they spend.

If the Ds can quit kicking themselves in the dick in TX, and focus on other places like AK/OH/ME/IA, I absolutely think the senate will flip.

Assuming no election shenanigans, that is.

Talarico has a decent shot against Paxton, Rs are already talking about cutting that race loose. We got the recruits we'd want in AK/OH who will have no trouble raising money. ME is a mess but Collins is already polling even against both Mills and Platner...she may not be able to escape the nation mood this time regardless.

I have my concerns w/Talarico in TX. He's getting beaten up over some recent things. And I'm not even sure he'll beat Crockett TBH. The polls are all pretty even there.

All of this is moot if Cornyn somehow eeks out a win in the primary though. He'll be well ahead of either D that wins. Getting that lunatic Paxton the W is key.

And I'm starting to think that ME is fool's gold. Collins seems to be immune to taking collateral dmg if recent polls are anywhere near representative.

This is just what happens in a primary.

I think Cornyn looses handily to Paxton.

Maybe or maybe her time is up. She hasn't even officially announced yet that she's running for re-elect. We'll see.

Trump posting pictures of the Obamas as monkeys.

Good thing we have a number of posters here who have argued for years that Trump isn't racist.
Click to expand...

I see Trump is celebrating black history month

Republicans: "We're not racists! Stop calling us racists!"

Also Republicans: "Look! I made this really cool racist image."

Part of it is his dementia is really dropping his impulse control. Finally being honest about his racism. He's now posting shit how he really feels all of his adult life. How long before he posts something that uses the N-word?

If I posted something like that under my name I most likely wouldn't have a fucking job the next day.

How Trump has double-digit approval figures kind of surprises me, but then I suppose it's like every other day for his supporters: He shits in their mouths, they celebrate chocolate ice cream day.
