I’ve met plenty of super smart Texans and know lots of super smart people that have gone there for $$$ jobs…. But man the average population run of the mill people you run into on the street in San Antonio etc is pretty bad.

That’s reflected in their averages being below average I think.

Cool story, bro

The high school graduation rate and the rate of people over 25 and older, that have a bachelor's degree or higher, are about the same between Texas and B.C.

US President Donald Trump said he was planning to impose a 50% tax on goods made in Brazil, escalating his fight with the South American country.

He announced the plan in his latest tariff letter, which was shared on social media. In it, Trump accuses Brazil of "attacks" on US tech companies and of conducting a "witch hunt" against former far-right president Jair Bolsonaro, who is facing prosecution over his alleged role in a plot to overturn the 2022 election.

Trump sparred with Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva about Bolsonaro's trial earlier this week.

At the time, President Lula said Brazil would not accept "interference" from anyone and added: "No one is above the law."
The man is completely unserious and too unreliable to negotiate a trade deal.

It's more market manipulation by the orange bastard.

It's actually quite wild when you think about it. This is the first president that owns his own social media company (Truth Social) and uses said platform to announce his policy changes/objectives.

The man literally creates his own feedback loops through his platform, it's unbelievable.

Trust me, I'm not looking to get into flame offs with some random fat troll on a forum. It's derailing these threads.

These threads are great.
It is not a complete echo chamber.
People actually have different opinions.

I don't think an actual woman has posted on RS since 2012.

Based on what you guys are describing, I don't know if I should be excited or be prepared to be disappointed when I meet VRYALT3R3D at Asian Dragon Buffet.

@VRYALT3R3D - Please keep your expectations low. WAAAY low.

There used to be a few chicks posting on RS. What did we do to drive them off?

You better watch your willy Dukes.

If she's truly a girl, I doubt that kitty has seen any action in years.
