quote:Everything she is a part of so far on the show has been awful.
The HR chick from SNL is absolutely awful.
I also think they are going a little overboard on the HR stuff. It’s not like the original show went by HR standards at the time. They need to be able to better make fun of it and have fun with it
Also the black female surgery resident needs some funny quirks instead of trying to make her the normal one. No regular character was ever normal. I have not finished the 2nd episode yet, so maybe she shows something that will make her fit in. I had to stop watching when the HR nazi was just in the scene with the unfunny version of a 2 snaps and around the world charge nurse and the also so far unfunny black female nurse. They definitely make me miss Laverne and Laverneagain.
The TikTok intern is annoying which is just a real social influencer but is just annoying to watch. The larger white male intern is annoying. The bisexual great at sex Asian doctor is also annoying (why didn’t the HR nazi show up for that or when he spanked the male doctor on his arse).
The original shows best interns or residents were the main 3 characters, but the others were still so much better than the current group so far. The other leads and the reoccurring characters in original were far better than the current ones so far. It’s ok so far because the original mains are still the mains, but the new characters need a lot of work. The janitor started off as reoccurring, so there is a possibility a minor character today becomes a bigger player.
I still can’t get used to Turk’s teeth. They distracted me when he was on Ray Donovan.
I also watch some episodes of season 4. I forgot that Jordan was pretty hot. Some say Turk and Carla were the main relationship of the series, but I always liked Dr Cox and Jordan better than any other relationship on the show. Turk and Carla obviously had the better relationship, but Dr Cox and Jordan were more interesting.

If tweet fails to load, click here. Would Starlink internet or other satellite services that can operate without switching to towers or using other infrastructure on the ground show up on this kind of reporting?
Also, right before would have been a good time to push something like Bitchat onto cell phones. Someone at Apple and Google would have probably warned them, or the companies would not have done it. Unless blocked in app stores by Iran you would think that during the earlier protests that they would have already downloaded apps like this to try to communicate through some type of smartphone ad hoc network or Bluetooth mesh /peer to peer network.

If tweet fails to load, click here. Link to the Text of Rubio’s full remarks
quote:
This was Rubio's actual argument for imminence, as the full clip shows. He pointed out that Iran's capacity for missile production exceeds our production level for anti-ballistic missile defenses, and the gap widened every month. Iran may have been about a year away from having so many ballistic missiles and drones that they could have pursued weapons-grade enrichment with impunity and openly developed nuclear weapons. The regime had already resorted to large-scale massacres of its own subjected people to maintain power; their "apocalyptic" theology would have encouraged them to use nuclear weapons against Israel and the US. Their refusal to discuss any limits on any of these ambitions became clear last week, and as Rubio argued, we needed to act while we still could.
https://www.axios.com/2026/03/03/rubio-trump-iran-israel-attacks
quote:
"We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action" against Iran, Rubio told reporters on Capitol Hill on Monday. "We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces" by the Iranian regime.
"And we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties ... And then we would all be here answering questions about why we knew that and didn't act," Rubio continued.
Rubio added later: "Obviously, we were aware of Israeli intentions and understood what that would mean for us, and we had to be prepared to act as a result of it. But this had to happen no matter what."
The widely repeated translation: The U.S. couldn't stop its ally — a far smaller nation that America arms, funds and protects — from attacking Iran on Saturday. So the U.S. had to strike Iran, too.
Not quite, U.S. officials said later. Regardless of Israel, they said, Trump ordered the strikes because he felt Iran was negotiating a nuclear deal in bad faith, and the U.S. needed to destroy the country's offensive military infrastructure.
"This operation needed to happen," Rubio told reporters, because Iran was developing too many missiles too quickly and was rebuilding its nuclear capabilities.
…Reality check:The picture critics are painting — of a U.S. reluctantly pulled into war by a smaller ally — obscures the deep coordination between the two countries in the weeks before the strike.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had been urging Trump to strike Iran since December — but Israeli officials say he wouldn't have moved without Trump's explicit approval.
It's highly unlikely Netanyahu would've struck Iran without Trump's green light, Israeli officials added. If Trump had preferred to keep negotiating, the strike would have been postponed.
Over the past year, Trump has repeatedly reined in Netanyahu from aggressive military operations, including his bombing campaign last year in Syria.
And Trump essentially forced the Israeli prime minister to accept a Gaza peace plan that resulted in Hamas releasing all of its remaining hostages and the remains of others.
Netanyahu pushed back Monday night, telling Fox News' Sean Hannity that Trump "can't be dragged" into anything — and that the president acts on his own judgment.
…Philip Klein, editor of National Review Online, wrote that those who think Rubio "said that Netanyahu forced the U.S. into war ... are conflating the question 'Why?' with the question of 'Why now?' ... Rubio was not trying to argue that Israel dragged the U.S. into this war."

"Yes, following the 9/11 attacks, many Iranian citizens held candlelight vigils, marched in solidarity, and observed moments of silence for American victims in 2001. Notably, Iranians gathered in Tehran's Mohseni Square on September 18, 2001, to light candles, and 60,000 spectators observed a minute of silence during a soccer match in Tehran."
I think they had some of both - vigils and cheering. The regime likely helped the terrorists fleeing Afghanistan and in other ways, and they killed many American soldiers in Iraq.
The Shah’s authoritarian government was the only thing holding back the radicals. I am not sure they can have freedom from hardline muslims without another authoritarian govt coming in and going after the hardliners or at least keeping them in check. The young adults can dance all they want, but it’s time for them to act with some strength and not wait for others to do it all for them.
I still remember the Shiites in Irag celebrating Saddam being taken out by doing a religious practice he banned (cutting their scalps and bleeding or maybe bleeding a lamb over their heads or both) and at same time shouting death to America and/or something bad towards Bush who just helped them get this religious freedom they were celebrating getting back.
The whole ME area is backwards as frick with strong authoritarian govts required to keep the radicals in check. Iran was more modern before the takeover, but many of the non-radicals fled elsewhere. The young adults pushing for freedom is a big positive for Iran over most other muslim countries in the Middle East, but they may not have the stomach or the will to fight on their own. The regime loyalists are going to fight back including asymmetrical warfare later like the Bathists and terrorists did in Iraq to try and break their will.

Marco Rubio a few hours ago: "We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action. We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces, and we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties."
It’s more like saying that you were threatened because your friend was about to punch someone, and that someone has stated if punched by your friend that they will punch you and others in an offensive attack that has nothing to do with self defense or retaliation against your friend and friend’s attack. It’s not a uncommon practice in that area, but it’s usually trying to draw Israel in when attacked by someone else and hope other muslim countries join in against Israel. Sadam did this in the Gulf War.
That’s doesn’t change the possibility we were drawn into this (have not read up on what was said), but the danger to us was not with Iran acting in self defense against Israel and endangering us with something like crossfire or being near Israel. It was from Iran intentionally attacking us because of Israel’s attack.

The look on that black bitch’s face just exudes Dem created black entitlement and privilege. She probably believed the BS and that she was all that even though the Dems just continue to use and abuse them by constantly pushing the white bogey man, pushing that blacks inherently need govt to help them more than others, allowing the worst of them to be victims instead being held responsible for their crimes or irresponsible behavior, and in the process also pushing to lower expectations for all blacks compared to others.
“Blacks, you can’t take out and show a DL to vote like everyone else, and anyone saying you can is just racist. Vote for us.” And they still do.

Context matters! These specific scenarios are the focus. The observation made was from what I am seeing in these specific patterns, not the other way around (ie, leading with bias and agenda, imparting my own limited patterned thinking that is tethered by biases). Not predominantly, that is, as we are all bound by our DNA and experiences, manifesting biases.
Discerning a multitude of different perspectives is how I try to roll. I think you bring up homophobia via referring to S Lebeouf post over weekend? Cant ignore the irony.
Group of posters took it at face value that homo groped hetero. No one on this board knows all the facts, including you and I. Yet, the string filled up fast with same bias that you point out. Inviting different perspectives was objective. Something I suspect (hope) we agree on.
Hear you.
I have never heard or read a white person end statements like this. You did similar in another thread, and it was just as awkward.
You threw in a lot of word salad that doesn’t change anything I wrote about you. You actually enforced it more.
You claim your focus is these 2 instances, but with only 2 more recent dining experiences in 2 different metros you are condemning white people in both areas for not being in attendance those 2 nights or days as racists. That’s it. That’s is all it took for you to come to that conclusion. That is textbook leftist social justice politics regardless of your claim to be an independent which actually means nothing and even more so here as every leftist or liberal poster here seems to claim to be either a “moderate” or registered “independent”. An independent is just choosing not to register with a political party or donate to the party. Technically that makes me an independent, but I am not going to hide behind that and not declare in these kinds of discourse that I am a conservative who votes Republican.
Not sure if you answered the questions in below quote elsewhere, but if you were really being honest about your question in the OP’s subject you would have led with the information asked in the below quote. You also would have asked what others have seen and if there are reasons for what you saw at those specific visits, restaurants, and locations that have caused the demographic shift (or if one at all when looking at more than 2 visits) before drawing conclusions on situation or stating them as doing so makes it a different conversation. I have not been to either BR or Metairie in a while, but there are plenty of posters here and likely on the food board that know about these places if you truly had an open mind and wanted to have open and honest discourse on those places. Probably too late with this thread and maybe from the start again due to the nature of your OP as many have avoided it or tapped out because you aren’t looking for honest discourse or for additional information on these places. You wanted to preach your racial theology.

This is because, in my opinion, a great deal of what is perceived as racism is actually group preference.
This kind of stuff and even every day interactions/disagreements are even more likely to be forced into racism claims in areas with close to equal numbers of populations of each where large amounts of blacks and whites across various economic classes have interactions all the time. Normal disagreements, frictions, and personality differences get turned into being about racism. Class, culture, and education differences in interactions get mixed into racism when blacks and whites are the ones interacting.
Many blacks, all leftists, or all white liberal females see a white person act impersonally to another white person, and they are likely to think he or she is a miserable arse or is having a bad day or is just not very personable. Those same people see that same white person act the same way to a black, and its because that person is racist with a complete inability to see things any other way.
Blow the horn at someone - usually being an arse but if it was a white person blowing horn at a black it is a racial incident. It doesn’t even matter if neither of them knew the other’s race as for many once told it’s racism.
Even if the black is reasonable and knows it was not racism that does not stop the other blacks, leftists, or white liberal women from telling others about the act of racism they saw.
All these are greatly increased when you live in a city like BR. People have impersonal, blunt, indifferent interactions and disagreements all the time, but when an area is 90% white these stay isolated to just being between those individuals, but when an area is 50/50 or close those same and equal types of interactions and disagreements get turned into being about the 2 groups of people.

Honest question - can you objectively criticize blacks or the black urban culture? Can you even answer that question honestly and objectively? Based on all your previous comments I don’t think you can. Which leads to asking have you stated your race and politics? Yes they matter. The everyone I disagree with must be racist or nazis Party or the we are like the soldiers storming the beaches of Normandy fighting these Nazis and racists Party cannot be objective about race or really anything these days.

You see racism and homophobia in everything because your bias causes you to look for white racism and homophobia in everything. Your evidence will always be biased and anecdotal, but you will always feel superior by promoting your evidence as factual allowing you to promote your conclusions based on that evidence as reasonable and objective. They are not.
Which of 3 do you consider to be the correct definition of racism?

Based on March 2026 reports, the suspect in the Austin/Pflugerville, Texas, shooting, Ndiaga Diagne, was a naturalized U.S. citizen originally from Senegal. Reports indicate he came to the U.S. in 2006, meaning he had been in the country for approximately 20 years at the time of the incident. Legal Status: Naturalized U.S. citizen.
Was bush a democrat when he let this guy in to vote for democratic candidates? This narrative is old and stupid like whoever keeps throwing it out there. Maybe the cult should go hang bush.
ClarkieBoy, Since you never responded to the “facts” on Dems importing voters thru the kids of illegals and actual illegals being caught voting that I supplied to you yesterday ( LINK) that you said I wouldn’t or couldn’t do (“Post facts if you want to prove something, you won’t because you can’t”), I thought that I should reengage and try again on your claim this illegal was all about Bush.
quote:
The gunman behind Austin’s possible terror-related mass shooting entered the US and cemented his legal immigration status under Democrat administrations — despite a growing criminal record.
Senegalese national Ndiaga Diagne, 53, arrived in America on March 13, 2000, on a B-2 tourist visa during the Clinton administration, a source familiar with his immigration history told The Post on Sunday.
Diagne — who killed two people and wounded 14 more during his rampage outside a Texas bar early Sunday — then became a lawful permanent resident on an IR-6 visa in June 2006 when he married a US citizen, the source said.
He had already racked up at least one arrest before that, for illegal vending in June 2001 in New York City, law-enforcement sources said.
He then went on to lodge a string of other arrests in the Big Apple between 2008 and 2016 — but that didn’t stop him becoming a naturalized US citizen on April 5, 2013 — around the start of former President Barack Obama’s second term, sources said. Those three arrests are sealed, sources said.
The thing I am still not sure about is why multiple people have reported he applied for asylum under Obama. It makes no sense, but the guy was crazy which was ignored by Dems at the 2 most critical points that allowed him to enter, become a citizen, and be around to murder people in the US (and obviously be able to vote for Dems since 2013 under Obama’s presidency).

Diagne then applied for asylum in 2016, though the outcome or stated purpose of that application was not immediately clear.

A Dem let him in, and another Dem ignored his red flags and gave him the ability to vote by letting him become a citizen.

Police took him out fairly quickly. He never entered the bar. I don’t know if that was by his choice or if the bar or a patron blocked the door and slowed him down. Several cops were already in the area which is probably normal for the area on a Saturday night.
quote:
Police Chief Lisa Davis said the gunman "put his flashers on, rolled down his window and began using a pistol shooting out of his car windows, striking patrons of the bar that were on the patio and that were in front of the Bar." The suspect then drove westbound on Sixth Street to Wood Street, parked, exited the vehicle with a rifle and continued shooting at pedestrians, but he never entered the bar.
Police shot and killed the gunman, who used a pistol and a rifle in the shooting.
