self serving celebrities come together in a preening festival

First topic message reminder :

Tonight we come together': Leonardo DiCaprio, George Clooney, and Cher lead star-studded telethon as Beyoncé offers message of unity and hope during hurricane relief special

Tuesday night's Hand in Hand: A Benefit for Hurricane Harvey Relief telethon brought together stars from around the world in a bid to raise millions of dollars for those affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.

The hour-long special included performances and messages from A-list celebrities including: Beyoncé, Justin Bieber, George Clooney, Cher, Leonardo DiCaprio and Jamie Foxx, all asking viewers to donate to help with relief from the disastrous storms that hit the southern US.

Although the telethon was first announced amid the devastation from Harvey, it was expanded to raise money for victims of Irma, which struck parts of Florida. Estimates from various groups have said that both hurricanes caused between $150 billion and $290 billion in damage to Texas and Florida.

More than 60 people died during Harvey and 12 deaths have been reported in the US from Irma.

In the first hour of the special, generous viewers opened their wallets and raised more than $14million for victims of the storms, according to Billy Crystal.

Yes, well...he's the capo de capos.  Schooled in Stalinist politics, former head of the KGB, ruthless, and having no moral restraint, loves wealth...I would say he's the wave of at least one prong of the future.  

The problem is, he's the head of a paper tiger.  As Reagan proved, his nation will never be great economically. Russians have a character flaw: they are monolithic.

The reason why Putin's got Trump by the balls, is Trump is still thinking like a business man...sucking up to the people with wealth.  Trump is a chump.  He has no idea what power he's sitting on.  He's still thinking in cash.  He falls for what New Yorker's call chump change.

Putin saw this, and offered him 19.5% of Rosneft Oil, if he would (effectively) tear the shit out of the US infrastructure.  But it's that infrastructure that gives the power.  Trump is the perfect tool: he only sees cash.  He doesn't know what power looks like in other forms.  

So it's: New lamps for old, new lamps for old... and Trump falls for it.

You sound miffed.

I take it you don't like living under an unelected foreign power??

Lets talk when you've had to do it for 40 years.

That's why we voted for Brexit, we grew tired of living under the boots of unelected dictators all of whom are corrupt enough to make a Russian spy master blush.

Miffed?  You write in a lot of your own presumption to your readings of others.  I was just being analytical.

In order for Russia to become the capo of America, the US had to fly low, not Russia high.  Politics is a much higher calling than business, and yet far higher when the businessman is a trust baby of someone else's wealth.  For some people, it's just too much.  Chumps are people who settle for much less than they could have.  Trump is a chump.

Trump has been bested in the deal.  Like a fish, he saw the bait, took it, and now he's flopping on the dock.  Trump said last year that he didn't like people who had been captured, yet he is caught, filleted and buttered for pan frying by Putin.

Of course the higher apparatus--the political one--told him it was happening,  But Putin had already ordered him to discredit the American intelligence agencies.  Putin had him under wraps with the golden shower gig, and controls him with the Rosneft Oil deal.  Who do you think is doing all the leaking?  Where are these little electric shocks in Trump's ass coming from?  It's the master, making the doggie perform.

The point is, this isn't a political take-over.  It's an organized crime caper.  Trump is the greatest under-achiever in history.  Trump has a Maserati, yet he wants to trade it for a.....


Trump is not even playing in the big kids' sandbox.

The point is that none of what you are saying is remotely true or accurate since trump is still POTUS.

If anything you have said was even remotely truth trump would have been impeached by now, but he hasn't been and isn't going to be, at least not for anything you've mentioned.

I assume your response will be "how can he get impeached when Russia owns America" or some. Such nonsense

You haven't been making that point in the least. Speak directly, smells. Stop this pussy-footin' around.

Trump is well on his way to being impeached. Remember, he has only been in office for 8 - 9 months. Nixon was in place for 6-years before impeachment really began.

First things first: we need to turn the House and Senate in 2018. Then, we need this Trump turns on Republicans to simmer just a bit longer. Finally, we need Special Counsel Mueller, New York Attorney General Schneiderman and California Attorney General Xavier Becerra, to drop the bombs of Espionage/RICO/Campaign Act/Logan Act at just the right moment. It will truly be a crescendo of justice.

Then we need to fit 'pussy-grabbber' with an orange jump suit.

Come on quill be serious, the only way you're getting trump out is at the end of his second term when he bows out gracefully to be forever know as the man who MAGA

SB wrote:Come on quill be serious, the only way you're getting trump out is at the end of his second term when he bows out gracefully to be forever know as the man who MAGA

There is the chance he will die before he has to serve time--he is 71-years old.  But at least we know he'll die in disgrace, and his grave site will be forever desecrated and urinated upon.

In the meantime, he'll spend his remaining days running and hiding from the law.  Who knows, maybe we'll break him financially.

Frankly, I'm cooking up a remedy that will be most satisfying.  It has to do with the US government taking control of Rosneft Oil by escheatment laws, thereafter moving to foreclose on the Russian government.  We force them into involuntary bankruptcy, and send over a Trustee to replace Putin.

So creative...you can do anything in law.

I don't watch CNN. I don't own their problems.

Regardless of what lies that CNN or Breitbart News admit to, there's always the facts. That June 9th meeting in Trump Tower took place, and Trump, Kushner and Manafort were there to collude with a Russian GRU agent...by Donald Trump's own admission in the above-posted email.

NOW THAT'S A REAL ADMISSION!

I think smells was talking about a 2nd prison term. That would be just before his third prison term...the one for Espionage Act violations, and Aiding a Foreign Enemy of the US.  OMG...that's the Patriot Act!

What makes me laugh is the way Trump's 'pussy grabbing' rep causes so much outrage when other US presidents have done the same thing for decades. The only difference being they were sneaky and did it in private.

Is he still POTUS today? I 'v had a look. AND HE IS !!!!!

He's still a cnut too. A lot of things don't change day to day tbf.

Your last sentence answers your question.  It's not outrage; it's normalization.  

Look, we all do it.  What Trump has made acceptable is the open discussion about pussies and tits.  I won't be surprised if, before his tenure is out, he normalizes the "grabber" part as well.

Remember how Trump used to simply reach up dresses and grab?  My bet is he'll normalize that part as well. Patting asses and fannies will become de rigueur, and they'll simply call it boy's locker-room behavior.

Neither Trump nor his Barbie Doll wife mentioned that. They just said it is acceptable because it was "normal" locker-room behavior. But if you want to go that way, it's all right with me.

My point is, we live in a time when the boundaries of what is normal are changing. Trump and the Trumpanzees are changing what is the definition of 'appropriate'. No telling where it will end, but be on notice...it's changing.

Is it?
Quill....try grabbing some random womans private parts next time you venture out.

are you are aware that in the UK, a very left leaning female politician (real ugly horse faced bint) kicked up a stir about how it was the leftwing men who were the worst SIXHIRB's

Me crucifying? Horrors...heaven forbid. I'm just chronicling the shifting standards. 'NOW' the standards are worse than previously, because of the Trump Access Hollywood tape. We've all heard it. It was accepted and normalized.

Once changes are made you can never go back. There are no virgin ears. Therefore, you can't "crucify" or even criticize what is already acceptable. As I say, to me it's entertaining.

SIXHIRB ,its an acronym for a tactic that is used primarily by people and groups on your side of the political/social divide whenever they encounter an argument or contrary set of values or opinions, and finding themselves bereft of the wit and intellect (as most lefties so often do) needed to intelligently,logically and rationally disprove said argument/set of values, they resort to their lowest default setting and initiate a SIXHRIB attack (situation dependent) in order to shut down the debate and "win" the argument.

Sexist

Islamophobic

Xenophobic

Homophobic

Intolerant

Racist

Bigot

Although with the rise of the alt-left Brownshirts (antifa division) the SIXHIRB attack has been replaced by physical attack, who needs to win a war of words when you can just break the mouth of the person speaking those words??

good people on both sides, as your signature siggests eh quill???

  I have the feeling that science and biology bore Pussy-grabber Trump...though his interest in female reproductive systems may be an exception.

As far as transgenderism, Nature seems to be behind it.  I know that Nature existed many millions of years before even the study of science and biology.  So, let's leave it be until scientists and biologists know more about it.

I know! Let's study climate change.

Is that why for centuries the Church tried to suppress science?

Have you ever actually read any history?

As far as transgenderism, Nature seems to be behind it.  I know that Nature existed many millions of years before even the study of science and biology.  So, let's leave it be until scientists and biologists know more about it.

I know!  Let's study climate change.

nature is behind transgenderism??

of course, the chemical and cosmetic surgery required to transform the outer appearance of the human body is an entirely naturally occurring phenomenon, i hear it grows naturally on trees in some parts of liberal la la land

and the "study" of climate change?? it will be rather short lived affair since there really are only two equations

good weather = climate change = more research dollars = big business

bad weather = climate change = more research dollars = big business

Everything, considering for years science was surpressed

So has science been accepted for thousands of years?

No dear smells

I mean how many countries deny teaching evolution even today smells?

My reply has everything to do with your false claim on science being accepted.

I think I made that very clear.

What is the matter Jelly Bandit?

Not happy, I showed yet again your poor knowledge of history?

1. Nature created everything, smells. Cosmetic surgery is just that: cosmetic. It's our attempt to accommodate what Nature started.

But Natural came first. The natural transgender is Nature's product. You just gotta live with it.

2. Your imperative that there are only two types of climate is specious. "Good" and "bad" are subjective terms. Who gets to say...you? Me? There's a lot more to it than that.

If you want to talk about big dollars and waste, take a look at the damage done by Irma, Jose and Maria. In this case, I think that a little research would save us lot of money.

the natural transgender??

there are no natural transgenders quill, every transgender has to undergo man made surgical intervention to transmorph. if you dropped a man who thought he was a woman on a desert island, he would die man, he would not magically transform into a woman.

secondly all transgender individuals remain the gender of their birth regardless of outward appearance, a simple blood test would confirm the sex of the individual regardless of what they look like

on a side note.

if you believe that man can be born into a womans body, do you believe that a white man could be born into a black woman's body??

as for researching hurricanes, im assuming you are not talking about somehow preventing the hurricanes???

1.  But there are underlying causes for transgender changes.  Homosexuality is not a choice.

2.  You prevent hurricanes by not contributing to the strength of the Cape Verde storms in the first place.  Hurricanes pick up strength by ocean temperatures.  A rise in the surface temperature of an ocean by a couple of degrees, can mean the difference between a category 1 storm, and a category 5, which we saw with Irma.

So yes...stop polluting the atmosphere, and don't give the Cape Verde storms the strength they are achieving today.

homosexuality and transgenderism are unrelated, they are not even in the same ball park.

yes there are underlying causes for transgenderism its called mental illness

when people start saying that the voices in the toaster is telling them to kill everyone, we don't say "ok if the toaster is telling you to do that then you had better do it", no we clap them in irons and send them to the funny farm for medical treatment until they are either treated or if not they stay there indefinitely.

PTSD was once called cowardice and men were executed for it, now we know what it is and we treat men for it instead of executing them.

these things happens because we recognize that some people are mentally ill.

but for some reason with transgenderism, we ignore the illness and indulge the fantasy we nurture the symptoms and let the illness continue unchecked.

40% is the suicide rate among transgenders, the only time we saw such high figures where among the Jews in Nazi Germany, so clearly socially indulgent surgery isnt fixing the unhappiness which results in suicide.

as for climate change

if human pollution causes hurricanes the why where there hurricanes before the industrial revolution??

the favourite straw man of the deniers...

yes there were hurricanes before the industrial revolution...they are a product of natural forces at work in the atmosphere

BUT they were not as regularly as strong as they are now

they are occuring with greater frequency and the intensity of each is increasing year on year as the oceans warm

You and Quill need to compare notes

You say hurricanes are a result of natural forces in the atmosphere

He says they are the result of man made pollution

Which is It?

Although I wouldn't take Quill too seriously because he thinks man made gender reassignment surgery is natural and natural hurricane are man made.

Male and female brains are, on average, slightly different in structure, although there is tremendous individual variability. Several studies have looked for signs that transgender people have brains more similar to their experienced gender. Spanish investigators—led by psychobiologist Antonio Guillamon of the National Distance Education University in Madrid and neuropsychologist Carme Junqu Plaja of the University of Barcelona—used MRI to examine the brains of 24 female-to-males and 18 male-to-females—both before and after treatment with cross-sex hormones. Their results, published in 2013, showed that even before treatment the brain structures of the trans people were more similar in some respects to the brains of their experienced gender than those of their natal gender. For example, the female-to-male subjects had relatively thin subcortical areas (these areas tend to be thinner in men than in women). Male-to-female subjects tended to have thinner cortical regions in the right hemisphere, which is characteristic of a female brain. (Such differences became more pronounced after treatment.)

“Trans people have brains that are different from males and females, a unique kind of brain,” Guillamon says. “It is simplistic to say that a female-to-male transgender person is a female trapped in a male body. It's not because they have a male brain but a transsexual brain.” Of course, behavior and experience shape brain anatomy, so it is impossible to say if these subtle differences are inborn.

Other investigators have looked at sex differences through brain functioning. In a study published in 2014, psychologist Sarah M. Burke of VU University Medical Center in Amsterdam and biologist Julie Bakker of the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience used functional MRI to examine how 39 prepubertal and 41 adolescent boys and girls with gender dysphoria responded to androstadienone, an odorous steroid with pheromonelike properties that is known to cause a different response in the hypothalamus of men versus women. They found that the adolescent boys and girls with gender dysphoria responded much like peers of their experienced gender. The results were less clear with the prepubertal children.

No, vic and I are saying the same thing.  It's not about absolutes.  Understand the dynamics, and stop playing games with words.

There have always been storms that form off of Cape Verde, Africa.  Do they traverse all the way to the Americas, and do they strengthen into a category 5 storm?  Increasing numbers of them do, and it is because of alterations in the ozone layer.  Many more become hurricanes because of climate change.

As I said, a rise in ocean temperature strengthens the storm, elevating the intensity.  Ocean temperatures in the Atlantic Ocean, and in particular over the Gulf Stream, are rising because of man-made climate change.  It is the numbers of hurricanes, and increased intensity, that have increased.
