Being mean is a risk factor for you having another heart attack. Is your life really about being mean to some stranger on the internet? I stand by my thoughts your demonizing people is just insecurity.

The American Gaming Association tweet on X is posted below. They got flooded with negative comments which they erased then turned off comments.
The next day Rep. Dina Titus of Nevada posted:
On Monday I’m introducing the FAIR BET Act, the Fair Accounting for Income Realized from Betting Earnings Taxation Act, to permanently restore the 100% loss deduction from gambling winnings. I welcome all other members to join this common sense fix.
Then Derek Stevens of Circa posted:

Thank you Congresswoman Titus. Three things needed:
1. Eliminate the .25% Federal Excise tax on sports wagers.
2. Eliminate the 90% deductibility and go back to what worked.
3. Raise the Slot threshold. $2,000 is better than $1,200 but it needs to be $5,000.
The dichotomy here is Circa is a member of the American Gaming Association. But here is Stevens pushing for a lot more than just the gamblers tax repeal. He understands, as do other casino owners, that this measure is bad for the industry.
I took a look at the leaders of AGA. They don't appear to have any experience in gaming.
Of further note, Sen. Mike Crapo is the Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee. Two other members of the committee, Grassley and Cornyn have said they don't know how the gamblers tax measure got into the bill. Cornyn said he doesn't know what purpose it would serve.
Then again it could be that he, like me, simply enjoys flaming idiots, assholes and fellow trolls.
The internet is great: it gives us near impunity to insult those we deem worthy without the risk of physical repercussion.
Life's a bitch, then you die.
I agree. There's an absolute joy in tossing around insults to those who truly deserve them, and damaging direct hit-zingers are especially satisfying. And this place is a smorgasbord of low-life losers and little people who have always been easy to chew up and spit out.
Actually, anybody with any brains could have and should have anticipated this. i did not, and should have. I am an idiot. Anybody with open eyes and an open mind should have a pretty good clue what's happened. I mean, it's not like the Trumpster came from the hairdressing industry. I was, I repeat, an idiot. Don't know why mickey thinks being an idiot makes me smarter than everyone else.
Not sure what that makes mickey. I guess a step below idiot.
I'm being mean? WTF? Do you not read ditz' posts? They are filled with insults. I'm just responding in kind. Snap out of it. If you want to complain about someone being mean then complain about all the assholes being mean on this site. Don't try to blame it all on one person. Either that or fuck off.
I also made the huge mistake of voting for Trump instead of third party. I was just thinking of money when I voted for Trump. We had a good economy under Trump until Covid suddenly came and fucked the economy over worldwide and I wanted to get back to the GOOD economy we had during most of Trump's Presidency.
Kamala Harris made me uncomfortable. Kamala came across as creepy and disturbing. This was a Presidential Case where both Candidates were NOT good choices.
Donald Trump honestly should have been in prison for being a convicted Felon, convicted of multiple crimes. If MOST people were convicted Felons, convicted of multiple crimes, they would be rotting in prison, not being elected President.
Kamala Harris LAUGHED at serious questions such as," Miss Harris what are your thoughts on global warming and climate change?" Kamala responded,"Joy comes in the morning," while LAUGHING. The interviewer honestly looked confused and disgusted by Kamala as if thinking,"This potential President comes across as STUPID. God help us all!" :eek: The RIGHT answer would have been,"I feel there needs to be more focus on the dangers of global warming and climate change," with a serious expression like -.- , not :D Even Judge Joe Brown, an ex coworker of Kamala called Kamala stupid and they were ex co
This retard has never had a gambling year where his losses didn't outpace his wins by an order of magnitude. This retard should stay out of this thread because it doesn't concern him at all.
My post wasn't ready to be sent yet and I tried to edit, but my Internet turned off on me and by the time my Internet came back, the edit window was closed.. My sentence about Joe Brown wasn't completed the right way. I wrote,"And they were ex co when I meant to erase that part completely since I already mentioned Joe Brown and she were ex coworkers. Damn Internet turning off on me! :/
Kamala was asked,"If you were President , what would you do differently than Joe did?" She answered ,"Nothing," which was the wrong answer. Joe Biden came across as VERY senile and VERY incompetent during his Presidency. WHY did Kamala think that saying she would do nothing different than Joe did was the RIGHT answer? :confused:
The right answer would have been something like,"As President, I would run America much better than Joe did. I would lower taxes for poor people, lower inflation to 2000's Economy, and make America safer. "
Donald Trump caused some of my Family to be deported. I didn't even know my sime of my Family would be getting deported under Trump's Presidency. And we did NOT get a good economy under Trump's Presidency. Our economy is fucked with inflation and Tariffs. Voting for Donald Trump was a huge mistake.
What good Presidential Candidates. Donald Trump is a convicted felon who caused some of my Family to be deported and Kamala was a creepy, disturbing, stupid, joke. Third party would have been the best choice.
Hmm. I could see a Gay, Third Party being elected President. :) My Customer in 2015 said something like," America is actually BEHIND the times. I live in Brazil and our President is a Woman who is married to another Woman. I can't believe America STILL doesn't have a Female President, Straight or not."
I voted Libertarian in the presidential election as I have always done since first voting for McGovern back in the day; I vote that way as my form of protest against the lousy two party system, and could care less if the candidate is a pole smoker.
I don't much care who or how a candidate fucks as long as the target isn't me.
BTW Oregon has a gay governor and she seems to be doing just fine.
If he is going third party then he isn't messing with primaries. If you want to burn money to get your way, it might very well be easier to put up a candidate that'll steal votes away from Republicans in battle districts.
It is going to be a beautiful thing. So beautiful. So wonderful.
Brazil has never had a lesbian president.
The only confirmed lesbian president to date was the president of Iceland from 2009-2013.
In 2015 Brazil did have a female president, but she wasn’t a lesbian (although she sort of looks like one.)
At least not a confirmed one, your customer if she was a woman, might have been her lesbian lover & she just never came out of the closet.
In fairness though, Brazil & Iceland can be easy to mix up.
While they seem a lot different on the surface they have a lot in common too.
They both have a lot of volcanic activity. They both take soccer very seriously. And both are major contributors to music.
Brazil gave the world Samba & Bossa Nova, & Iceland gave the world Bjork.
