It Doesn't Affect You, But It Does
John Donne once said that "no man is an island". Society has evolved, does evolve, and will evolve, with the actions of each to one degree or another affecting it and being affected by it. Society isn't some abstract idea or social construct of the conspiratorial vein. The libertarian ideal that everyone can do what they want and anything not affecting others in the strictest 1st degree will not have a depreciative or dilatory effect others, and thus society, is based upon a blind faith that the way, the truth, the light, of Randian enlightenment can not, and will not, be snuffed out a la Anthem because the choices of others does not, in the strictest 1st degree, command another.

On the costs-of-climate-change-action link:
"Their nationally representative poll found that 43% of Americans were unwilling to pay an additional $1 per month in their electricity bill to combat climate change -- and a large majority were unwilling to pay $10 per month." The rude reality, although most Americans are too dopey and disconnected and distracted to have figured this out, is that in most of the country, ordinary consumers are already getting socked with increased monthly costs FAR in excess of these thresholds, due to things like "renewables" mandates.

"So, was Obama birthed in Kenya or Hawaii?"
I personally incline to the concept that he was born in Hawaii under circumstances other than the official story, probably having to do with Frank Marshall Davis. And that he later made up the Kenya stuff for what at that stage in his life were the social and academic advantages accruing to exotic foreign origin. On the other hand, there were all those Kenyan kin of Obama's who were happy to point to the village hut where he had entered the world to bless us all with his omniscient magnificence. Then it was noted to them that they were damaging his chances to become President, at which point they all clammed up tightly. Posted by: torquewrench at September 16, 2016 11:43 PM (noWW6) 56

Posted by: Nice22 at September 16, 2016 11:49 PM (bQJ3C) It's been high on my bucket list this whole election year, with this as the top of my list 1. Hillary loses her final run for POTUS to another guy from out of no where, who burns through her carefully laid schemes. First she loses to the Magic Teflon Negro with a vaporware resume and the ability to Talk White While Being Barely Black. Then she loses to a flamboyant wheeler dealer who has NEVER held any public office. 2. During her concession speech to The Donald, she just can't hold the bile in any longer and she starts screaming and ranting and raving about everyone from Bill on down the line. During her rant, she names names, dates, places, crimes, since she didn't win, she's going to burn it all to the ground.

Hillary gave an entire speech attacking a cartoon frog.
CNN and MSNBC are attacking the frog as well. College students are flexing their muscle again, chalkenings everywhere. The Alt-Right is marching. And no one even knows what it is. It's just basically the pure essence of Breitbart's "Fuck you. War." I can do without the anti-Semitic stuff for those who are actually sincere about it, however. But I'd say most are just fucking around. Posted by: Nice22 at September 17, 2016 12:00 AM (bQJ3C) 119

at the beginning of the great chase scene (my fave

Posted by: musical jolly chimp at September 16, 2016 11:52 PM (WTSFk) I don't know if it is legal, but it has its roots in English common law, and was common custom on the Scottish Marches, where a legally empowered individual - a sheriff or marshal - could claim "hot trod" and impress all available men to pursue a raiding band.

As a filmscore fan, I disagree somewhat with the Marvel thing. I have a number of Marvel soundtracks which I think are excellent. Henry Jackman's score for The Winter Soldier was solid, as was Tyler Bates' score for Guardians of the Galaxy.

Posted by: musical jolly chimp at September 16, 2016 11:52 PM (WTSFk) ++++ Posse comitatus is the common-law or statute law authority of a county sheriff, or other law officer, to conscript any able-bodied man to assist him in keeping the peace or to pursue and arrest a felon, similar to the concept of the "hue and cry." Originally found in English common law, it is generally obsolete; however, it survives in the United States, where it is the law enforcement equivalent of summoning the militia for military purposes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_comitatus It stands to reason that if the cops can commandeer you, they can commandeer your car if that's what circumstances require.

Damn spellcheck. 'primitivo' wine Posted by: Jean at September 17, 2016 12:16 AM (ngn8T) The Grifone Sangiovese is a good value. I was first in Tuscany when I was 15, and was startled to find restaurants putting out jugs of wine at meals for free -- but charging up the yin-yang for water (and even more for sodas!!).

Heh. The Governor of NC has offered a deal on HB2 (the 'Bathroom Bill'). If Charlotte will repeal their original ordinance (which has been nullified by HB2) then the Gov will call a special session of the state legislature to repeal HB2. In other words, everything will revert to the way that it was, and as it is almost everywhere else. The outraged LGBTQ don't wanna deal. Why? Well because it robs them of a target for their faux hysterics. Posted by: Mike Hammer, etc., etc. at September 17, 2016 12:16 AM (oFSUK) A happy coexistence was never the goal.

Reporters bristled at their treatment during Donald Trump's campaign event Friday, where the GOP presidential nominee only briefly addressed his past skepticism of President Obama's birthplace and abruptly left without taking any questions.
Trump then barred reporters from joining a tour of his new hotel, which prompted the pooled television reporters to erase their video from the tour, according to multiple reporters. This highlights not only the bias of the press, but also their childish stupidity. They deleted their copy of a tape, but the footage had already gone out. So, what does deleting it accomplish? Their version of stomping their feet, I guess. The whole 30+ minutes is on youtube. https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2016/09/16/ donald-trump-speech-trump-international-hotel- washington-dc-1000am-edt-live-stream/ Posted by: Anon Y.

From the Les Deplorables piece:
The man who created the artwork he used Friday, an artist known online as 'Keln,' was banned from using Reddit on Saturday, shortly after posting the image there. He first posted it to a right-wing blog called 'The Conservative Treehouse.' 'I made the Les Deplorables meme on @Reddit last Saturday,' he would later write on Twitter. 'Been banned ever since. They won't respond to tell me why.' He wrote on his blog, NukingPolitics.com, that he suspected Reddit had an anti-Trump bias. 'Apparently Reddit is even more sensitive than Twitter or Google or Facebook when it comes to anything that does not align to their political thinking,' he wrote. 'This is digital book burning people. It is time to avoid these companies. Make them suffer and turn their overpriced stocks into napkins. They have no business doing business.' Just before the Trump rally began, his Reddit account was reinstated. Posted by: Anon Y. Mous at September 17, 2016 12:39 AM (R+30W) 254

To all Cruz fans, quick question, how good is Mike Pence?? Remember Pence endorsed Cruz over Trump and is a personal friend of Mark Levin.
I viewed Trump's picking of Pence as a serious olive branch to the Cruz wing of supporters. Anyway, that guy has been a rock star. He's almost working as hard as Trump, he's EVERYWHERE!!! Let's be honest, even if you hate Trump, that guy and Pence are working harder than I've ever seen any nominees work. FFS, they're holding 2 rallies a day most days...

And, of course, I'm using no email for spam, amazon, and grocery sign-ups because I need more security threats like I need a hole in the head. Posted by: deplorable cthulhu at September 17, 2016 12:31 AM (EzgxV) ++++ Amazon can be pretty handy. You refuse to shop/purchase online? Posted by: Anon Y. Mous at September 17, 2016 12:33 AM (R+30W) Amazon was a major component in my security breach. If you know the (1) name, (2) house address, and (3) email address an Amazon customer uses with Amazon (and, BTW, #1 and #2 are printed on their address labels -- for all I know, #3 may be, as well).....then you can call up their customer service line and (after an hour wait) get ALL of the other information they have about you -- your recent purchases; your recent wish-list items; the type, last four digits, and expiration date of every credit-card you've ever used there....they'll even let you reset the password on the account. Worse yet, this same information is commonly found on resumes (you don't use your business email and address on your resume, right?). The way Amazon handles your account data is worse than worthless -- it can enable further security assaults. For example, let's say your prior orders includes an HP printer -- what could be easier than to create a spoof email supposedly from HP that purports to sell you toner cartridges but actually dumps malware into your system? At a minimum, I would advise using a separate-from-anything-else email address for Amazon -- as well as a separate-from-anything-else credit card.

Posted by: yankeefifth at September 17, 2016 12:42 AM (cPsPa) Eh. Is it really? I mean yeah there are more "slutty" costumes. But I bet there were always a lot of busty women dressing up as Elvira. And a lot of women as a "Nurse" with a very short skirt. There are just more options. I wonder if there will be a lot of little girls dressing up as "Ghostbusters" this year. That's one of the things they have tried to push as a positive from that shitty movie. And while there might be some I doubt its any significant number.

From the Les Deplorables piece: The man who created the artwork he used Friday, an artist known online as 'Keln,' was banned from using Reddit on Saturday, shortly after posting the image there. He first posted it to a right-wing blog called 'The Conservative Treehouse.' 'I made the Les Deplorables meme on @Reddit last Saturday,' he would later write on Twitter. 'Been banned ever since. They won't respond to tell me why.' He wrote on his blog, NukingPolitics.com, that he suspected Reddit had an anti-Trump bias. 'Apparently Reddit is even more sensitive than Twitter or Google or Facebook when it comes to anything that does not align to their political thinking,' he wrote. 'This is digital book burning people. It is time to avoid these companies. Make them suffer and turn their overpriced stocks into napkins. They have no business doing business.' Just before the Trump rally began, his Reddit account was reinstated. Posted by: Anon Y. Mous at September 17, 2016 12:39 AM (R+30W) Punch back twice as hard.

To all Cruz fans, quick question, how good is Mike Pence?? Remember Pence endorsed Cruz over Trump and is a personal friend of Mark Levin. I viewed Trump's picking of Pence as a serious olive branch to the Cruz wing of supporters. Anyway, that guy has been a rock star. He's almost working as hard as Trump, he's EVERYWHERE!!! Let's be honest, even if you hate Trump, that guy and Pence are working harder than I've ever seen any nominees work. FFS, they're holding 2 rallies a day most days... And half the time they're in separate places, meeting up once a week to rally together roughly.

I think most "mainstream" MCU movies have a score that's "orchestrally complex," which means that while you recognize the theme it's not hummable so you can't recall it easily. Also, Iron Man and GOTG depended on songs a lot, more than usual.
I just listened to a few and the distinctive scores are there, it's just kind of like a speech instead of a soundbite. Posted by: Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith at September 17, 2016 01:01 AM (wB8Tg) 301

Goldeneye is good......in comparison to the Moore and Dalton versions of Bond.

I don't think Fox has it in them anymore, but if no one does an hour-long special on how *specific* MFM figures are *specifically* covering up Blumenthal/Brooks/Birtherism, then nobody is really trying.
It has to be *specific*, just like people (except rabid fans on both sides) tunes out vague generalities, which is a huge weakness of politics in general, they will tune this out if specifics aren't delivered.

oh speaking of Miller Lite, incidentally I figured out why I wasn't going into ketosis.
so occasionally I would forget to bring my lunch and so I would get a lunch from the local sandwich place. they had a wrap, which I figured was low carb enough. well I finally looked up how many carbs their wrap was, and it was *55 g*. which is a lot. so yeah I was never giving myself a chance to go into ketosis. ugh.

"Healthy" low fat dressing are the worse. Loaded with carbs to replace the fat.
The BMJ just published a study showing their no link, repeat no link, between saturated fat and cardiovascular disease, stroke risk disease(clogged arteries here, whatever they call it), and diabetes. There is a link between transfats and cardiovascular disease. And I'll bet you, that link disappears with the naturally occuring type of transfat, which is in beef for instance. It's the "engineered" type of transfats that have never existed in the human diet before that are likely the problem.

Mous at September 17, 2016 01:21 AM (R+30W) OK, time for a "build a clock" discussion.... When I was a kid, I encountered a math problem that said: "There are 17 pairs of black socks in a sock drawer and 19 pairs of white socks. Unfortunately, cthulhu has to get ready for school before dawn and must draw socks randomly from the sock drawer to get ready. What is the minimum number of socks he must take from the drawer to ensure he has a matching pair to wear to school?" The answer, of course, is three -- the first sock could be white or black; the second sock could be the other; but the third sock is bound to match one of the prior two. Brilliant!!! I could standardize my socks and underwear and never have to worry about anything matching.....but what about dye lots over the years? How would I know that my black socks would always match my other black socks? So, what I did was -- I bought a metric fuckton of identical black socks; identical khaki socks; and identical underwear.....a little over 30 years ago. Yes, I've got socks older than many of the commenters here. But no individual piece of clothing gets used all that much, so they mostly appear new. Every so often, some misadventure happens and I discard a few [my favorite were some black socks that fell behind the couch near an electric baseboard heater and were subject to selective chromatography...]. There may come a time when my undies are subjected to issues that cause them to be discarded more frequently than they have been over the last 30 years....but, until that time, I'm probably good for another couple of decades.

You've been wearing the same undies for over 30 years? Not just the same kind, but the same ones?
As far as socks, I find that if I pair them up and fold them out of the dryer, there is no need to develop mathematical formulas to determine how much time I will need to randomly draw the singles out of my drawer and still get out of the house on time. Seriously, it never occurred to me to stock up on 30 years of undergarments all at the same time. Posted by: Anon Y. Mous at September 17, 2016 01:46 AM (R+30W) 424

Here's the situation:
Part of my job at the radio station is scheduling the music for the day. I've been doing this for most of my time here, when the duties were taken away from our morning guy (and former program director) because the owner wanted to make a change. Our schedule runs on a digital playback system. I give the other air talent some leeway in moving songs around, playing requests, etc. The morning guy has taken upon himself to add songs that I don't have playing in any rotation and dropping songs that he simply doesn't like...not just on his show, but on mine, and everyone else's. I discovered he came in after hours tonight and "tweaked" the schedules to remove songs that he doesn't care for. This isn't his job, and it hasn't been for years now. I'm sure he's thought I didn't notice, but I've had my suspicions, and I now have screenshots and other evidence that he's been screwing around. Monday, I'm taking my evidence to the owner. What he'll do after that, I don't know. What I do know is, that if our positions were reversed, he'd be calling me out...also, if he were trying to pull this at any other station, he'd be fired. So yeah, I'm a little pissed. Posted by: The Deplorable Captain Whitebread at September 17, 2016 01:54 AM (KFQ8l) 452

Other Sith.laundry tips - never wash a dress shirt in anything but cold water and never put it in the dryer. Saves cuffs and collars and packets and keeps em flat and smooth. Never use chlorine bleach. Presoak in borax and washing soda for a day or two before laundering as usual. No more yellow stains.

Posted by: The Deplorable Captain Whitebread at September 17, 2016 02:01 AM (KFQ8l) There was a wonky sci-fi story where it was posited that many of the objects that surround us are actually co-adapted beings living out their own life cycles. So, when you found that you'd brought home a bunch of paperclips from the office but couldn't find any -- but found you had an excess of ballpoint pens -- it was because the paperclips had pupated into pens during the night. And everyone knows that you always end up with more hangers going back to the drycleaner than garments you had cleaned....because the pens would subsequently morph into hangers later.

Posted by: Deplorably Rusty Nail at September 17, 2016 02:15 AM (S2VsH) was talking to a friend about which would be more fun to drive for a day a testarossa or 308. testarossa is probably a better drive but 308 would be more fun, especially with the targa top.

Standard month-to-month fees post-expiration. Cancel anytime.
However, most providers have given up on old style cell phone contracts these days. Instead, you buy the phone for full cost spread out over two years, no cancelations fees, and if you cancel, then any remaining monthly payments on the phone are due in full. Posted by: Walter Freeman at September 17, 2016 02:32 AM (21hN3) 528
With most cell companies, you go to a month-to-month plan that is similar to what you paid under contract but without the payments for the actual phone anymore. The "free phone" thing is pretty much history. Now, the cost of the phone is just broken up into 24 (or 30) payments which are part of the bill. When the phone is paid off, those payments cease, but your plan continues until you end it.

chemjeff, if you're buying a Sprint phone, it will be CDMA, which means it basically won't work outside the United States. Same is true for Verizon phones. If you need something more "universal", you need a GSM phone. ATT and T-Mobile use GSM in the US.

Just be sure you purchase an "unlocked" phone that can be transferred to any carrier. Yesterday, at Best Buy, I looked at unlocked phones and plans. Buying an unlocked phone saves about $20 per month, possibly more. This pays for a $240 phone in 1 year. The problem I saw was that, of the 15 or so models available, only 4 would work with Spring or Verizon, and at least 2 of them were $650+. The remainder worked with AT&T. I'm not buying a phone for $650, when the same one will cost $250 or less in 2 years. Point: Check all of the plans and phones at Fry's and Best Buy before changing plans.

@552: "how do I know if the phone is "unlocked" or not?"
You mentioned Sprint. They're a CDMA provider along with Verizon. AT&T and T-Molbile are GSM providers. Google around and there are plenty of articles explaining the difference better than I can here in fewer words. Just make sure you look for recent articles with up-to-date info. Sprint sells some phones that will work on both CDMA and GSM networks. Some phones might be CDMA only. Ask the salesperson. Even college kids working in malls these days will know which is which. Ideally, you'll want a universal phone, not only 'cause it gives you the freedom to switch, but they're marginally more valuable during resale.

Not to make matters more confusing, but most locked phones can be unlocked after a few months of service, or if you make enough noise with customer service. IIRC, some states have laws requiring providers to unlock by request with no time limits or fees.

Chem, do you know which phone company you're going with?
Look for a used phone / repair shop nearby. Around here it's called CPR (cell phone repair). Tell them "I need a T-Mobile compatible phone." You can get a fully refurbished phone for 1/2 Price or better. Then take the phone to the store & let them sync your contact list & whatever else from your old phone to the new one. Just make sure you have your old phone/SIM card. Then, hit amazon for replacement batteries. Anker has been great for me on my Note 4. Cheap, 2 batteries + a wall charger (no cord), and I have 3 batteries - never worry about charging.

@571: "CDMA doesn't work anywhere outside the US. GSM works all over the world."
Yes, but GSM uses different frequency bands in different countries, and not all GSM phones are compatible with all frequencies. Hell, AT&T and T-Mobile have differing bands that sometimes cause compatibility issues here in US. Again, it depends on the specific phone.

I'm sure everyone and their brother knows this song, but I don't listen to most modern music at all. This is from the British Group "Passenger" and the song called, "Let Her Go". The lead singer has a very interesting voice, the music is haunting and the lyrics interesting:

(My 25 year old TV stays on 24/7, even if it's only for th dog when I'm away) I watched a minute of the video on the 3rd listen, and thelead singer has a familiar face.

Leg is doing pretty well, although the violent changes in weather this fall make it ache at times. They finally got my husband's Ambien dosage right, so his subconscious has stopped fighting it.

Catwrangler is a newish name to me, but I think probably a longtimer - thank you for picking up my slack lately. Pookysgirl, You're on a non-apple, right? Simply touch & hold for a second on any word in any post. Do you see two blue "teardrops" that you can then drag around to make a "quote?" If so, an option should pop up to cut, copy, etc. Copy (it's now on your clipboard) then paste into you new post. For a url, same thing. Touch the header, i highlights. Then touch/hold & you should get the option to copy, which you can then paste. For instance, if you wanted to link what I'd arguably the prettiest song in history, do this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=n5NPN3NF0rM Posted by: Chi at September 17, 2016 04:58 AM (F0Rle) Posted by: Cave Johnson at September 17, 2016 05:00 AM (6gk0M) 641

Tim... you are going to have to clarify that thought process. I think I know what you were trying to say, but you shit yourself somewhere in the middle.

Prager's view is the Greatest Generation never taught the next what it means to sacrifice. Posted by: Skip at September 17, 2016 05:53 AM (8lPj5) Vic's view is that the MFM named them the "Greatest Generation" and I don't think they were any better than any other generation. Sure they fought WWII but the next one fought 10 years of Vietnam. Sure the elected FDR to 4 damn terms and he destroyed the country. No wonder the MFM thought they were great.

>>>Freezing Means Melting
*sigh* I've been seeing all day blurbs that "arctic ice observed at all time next to lowest level". Yet the polar caps were supposed to be gone by now, and expansions in the ice caps kept getting explained away (the melting ice tumbled down, thus increasing the surface area of the caps! Yeah, that's the ticket!). And yet these expeditions keep getting stuck in the ice. Posted by: Yuimetal at September 17, 2016 05:57 AM (dtWKK) 682

"Alt-Right" is a beat off of Establishment Right if I have you correctly.
Some idiots want to establish "White Groups", so as to counter-balance the NAACP and so forth. Fuck them. I simply want to establish "hate facts" as true and let "Liberals" know that "Hands-Up, Don't Shoot" was a lie. Posted by: Slapweasel, (Deplorable1), (T) at September 17, 2016 06:03 AM (6gk0M) 689
Okay Slap bear with me.
The "Alt right" consists of the klan, nazi's and assorted skinheads, white supremacists, yada, yada. None of these have even the fainest whiff of being conservative. In fact they are practiced mainly by left wingers who want their progressivism to fit a narrow definition enforced by their goobermint. Posted by: Tim in Illinois.

I think you are wrong, Tim. Although, if the "Alt Right" keeps disparaging Ted Cruz?
They have no way to ingratiate themselves into my little Kingdom. Those who would disparage Cruz's voting record are ignorant assholes. Period. I'll vote for Trump, so I can come "clean". Trump is not a Conservative, however. The FAR-"Alt-Right" assholes won't even concede that Ted Cruz is a Conservative. They will dredge bullshit, so as to make themselves feel better.

Good mornin' fellow early risers.
Prettiest song ever mentioned upthread but only a link, which I'd have to type out so... I don't know the song being talked about. Time in a Bottle has to be right up there in my book though. And one I'll bet no one here has heard is too. True North - Buy for You the Moon Put that in utube search,,, disclaimer, currently in a 3 piece with the front man and base player from their first, Dashboard Believer, CD. Doing a 3 your show later this afternoon just north of KC in fact.

You lost me too Slap. That's not hard to do though. I thought we were talking about who the alt right really was.
I am saying that there is nothing "right" about the alt right. It's just a catch phrase for progressives to tag their most undesirable types with. Posted by: Tim in Illinois. Simply Deplorable. at September 17, 2016 06:51 AM (d76uN) 712

I thought the "Alt-Right" was anyone who didn't consider themselves "Establishment Right".
Constitutionalists and those who believe in the Laws of the Land are "Alt-Right". While they include "Nationalists" and "White Pride" folks, they are a tiny minority of the "Alt-Right". Mostly, the "Alt-Right" is anti-Establishment.
