Safe Spaces 'Marie Claire': Men aren't allowed to criticize 'safe spaces'. Safe spaces are for losers who can't handle free speech. Ooops. I might've triggered Jessica Valenti. Deal with it Jessica. Leaks You know, with all these leaks and some of the latest ones sounding incredibly stupid, I'm starting to think that these are part of an effort to find who is leaking material. It is even more odd to break this story at 5PM on a Friday before a holiday weekend. Most people will be out and busy all weekend and not really pay attention to the news. WaPo has had this info since December so it really is weird that they published it when they did unless they just got some corroborating info that enabled them to publish. That's not clear in the article but it would be funny if the corroborating info was fake meant to trace leakers. Of note, the NYT has now published their article and it has some differences. Sort of like what you would do when trying to find leakers. Put different details in different reports, etc. and then see what info goes where. As to the actual allegations in the latest leak, here's some good analysis from WarNewsUpdate's Editor:The more that I think about this Washington Post exclusive .... the more I realise that it has a lot of holes in it. One .... the Russians would never permit such a communications link. Two .... Michael Flynn who was present at the meeting would know that they would never permit it. Three .... what's the point of having a secret communications channel via through the Russian embassy to the Kremlin .... where it would not be secret at all. Four .... President Trump is the President .... he can do anything he wants with the executive branch .... including having his own direct line to the Kremlin should he (and Putin) want to. But I digress .... what the Trump administration wanted (and I am sure the Kremlin wanted it too) was a private back-channel .... and for those who may not know .... this is how it works. If the Trump administration wanted Putin to know something independent from normal diplomatic channels .... it will be done by having someone President Trump trusts telling someone that President Putin trusts in person (that Russian official will be living in the U.S. .... probably near Washington DC). That person .... once the message has been received .... will then be taking the first flight to Moscow. Sadly, this latest leak helps the Russians. If true, they just revealed to them that we were able to monitor Kislyak's private comms. Related: The Kremlin seems to have bet big on the willingness of U.S. intelligence agencies to leak.

Baby Sister Update
Eventful day today: took Joyce on picnic lunch at local state park (beautiful!), but she ended up giving it back. Not sure what caused this: could have been heat, could have been new chemo (they upped her dosage), some combination of these, or something else entirely. Got her back home and into bed for a much needed nap, and headed back to the hotel for our own quiet time. Went back for dinner: she was rested and showered - feeling *much*'better Ate a decent meal, then shmoozed a bit, then off to bed. We said our goodbyes (return home tomorrow) and parted. Impressions this trip: there's no question that she's doing better cognitively, and mostly physically (the blood clots are a step backwards, but not insurmountable). I do wish Hubby would be more gentle with her, but there's very little can say in that regard. I'm sure we'll (or at least I'll) be back this summer. Please pray for renewed strength and healing. [To my fellow, beloved Hordelings, thank you all in advance for your prayers and well-wishes for my sister and our family.] Also: I'm checking out early tonight - early flight out. Be well, Horde!

This is dedicated to Basement Cat.
You're First In Our Hearts. Thank you-- I appreciate the kindness. I don't want to beat the subject to death, but after posting last night, I got ruthlessly analytical (hey, I'm an INTJ to the max, for morons who have had to be Myers-Briggs-typed) about why baiting bugs me so much, purely apart from personal history. I should thank Slap a second time for nudging me to this bit of enlightenment. I think it has to do with the fact that that kind of stuff (rubbing a loss or second-place finish in the loser's face) has become nearly ubiquitous in the wider culture in recent years. Such as bat flipping in baseball, end zone dances in football, etc. And we see so much of it on the D side of the political aisle: Nancy Pelosi's little parade with the oversized gavel; Teh Won's "I won"; the gloating that goes on among the lefties whenever someone like Breitbart or Scalia dies, etc. I guess it's a sign of aging, but when I compare the disgraceful "nah, nah, hey, hey" chanting at Bush 43 during TFG's 2009 inauguration with the respect shown to Eisenhower (and Nixon too) at JFK's inauguration in 1961, I get nostalgic for civility and what I was taught as a kid about sportsmanship. Sometimes I think a large chunk of society has regressed to childishness (as distinct from childlikeness, which is a good thing). Okay, end of lecture. I also want to thank CDR M for the M-Day thread. As I fessed up on the pet thread, my dad (82nd Airborne, WWII) died suddenly of a heart attack on Memorial Day weekend, so it's always a heavy weekend for me. But I am truly grateful for all the morons who have served or are serving in the Armed Forces. God bless you all. Posted by: Basement Cat at May 27, 2017 10:30 PM (3C9q2) 54

When I was a kid in the 50s, almost all our father's were WWII vets. It was just the way it was. And for the most part, we understood that our fathers had done something that was good for us, good for the country, and good for the world. We understood that our fathers had stood up against evil and we were the lucky recipients of their bravery and sacrifice.

56 Basement Cat, what happened?
Posted by: logprof at May 27, 2017 10:32 PM (GsAUU) I'll try to keep the summary short: one of the posters on last night's ONT referred to Slapweasel's habit of baiting the Horde for usually being first on the ONT. And I commented further down the thread (in reference to that post) that it was one reason why I had mostly stopped posting on ONTs. Some people tried to explain that it's just silly fun (which I knew and know to be the case), but I felt compelled to explain that baiting behavior is not as easy for me to shrug off as it is for most people. Hope that helps. I think most people by the time they get into their twenties have at least one sore spot somewhere in their psyches-- it's just that the location varies enormously from one person to the next. I must say I'm glad that the Horde is one place where it's safe to admit where one's scar tissue is located, 'cuz we all have some. (Oops, did I just call the HQ a "safe space"?)

Greetings:
Back in the summer of the last '68, I was doing my military service down in Texas, which, besides the Bronx, is the place I'd most like to be from. For several months, I was assigned to the base's funeral detail. We would provide pallbearers and a rifle squad for those requesting military funerals in the local area. Military-wise, it wasn't bad duty. On the days when we weren't scheduled for a funeral, we would spend several hours practicing our "drill & ceremonies" and a couple more squaring away our uniforms and equipment. On funeral days, we would head out as early as necessary on a 44-passenger bus, often in civilian clothes or else fatigues with our first-class uniforms and equipment in tow. Often we would change into our duty uniforms at the funeral home, once in the casket display room, or on the bus itself. It being Texas and the Viet Nam war being in full swing, we often had several funerals a week to perform. There was a certain spectrum from the World War graduates through the Viet Nam casualties. The former might involve a local veterans' group and an afterward BBQ or such. The latter were somewhat more emotionally raw as most of us were facing our own deployments in the near future. Two funerals of the latter sort have stayed with me through the years. The first was of a young Private First Class who had been MIA for several months before his remains were recovered. I was on the pallbearer squad that day and when we went to lift the casket, it almost flew up in the air. There was so little of the young soldier left that we totally overestimated the weight we were lifting and almost looked decidedly unprofessional. The other was that of a Negro Specialist 4th Class. I was in the rifle squad that day. In the rendering of military honors, there is a momentary pause between the end of the (21-gun) rifle salute and the beginning of the playing of "Taps". It is a moment of profound silence in most cases. During that moment, the young soldier's mother gave out a yowl from the depths of her grief that so startled me that I almost dropped the rifle out of my hands. That yowl echoes within me still. I'll readily admit that, as a result of my experiences, I became much imbued with a sense of duty and respect to and for our fallen. Hopefully, today, when our media do their reporting they will show some of the same and let "Taps" be played out in its entirety. It would be nice for a change.

We have our beloved SMFH, who is awesome (and, I'll add gratuitously, pretty damn fly), and while she has been very good at what she does and kinda scares me something in my gut would be more devastated if she'd be hurt (or worse) on the front lines than if a guy, even an outstanding guy, suffered the same fate.
-- IMHO, men are biologically wired to protect women. For the species to continue, there MUST be women available. That's why women should not be on the front lines. Outside of the biology of it, men are wired to protect women, which interferes with "killing the guy who is trying to kill me." It's... distracting at a time you cannot be distracted, since you life depends on it.

Women "serving" in the military"
During WWII, there were women in units that shuttled Lend Lease airplanes (P-39's) up to Alaska, where the Russians picked them up and flew them back to the USSR. My Grandmother, while she wasn't in uniform, worked for the Army Air Corps in a "classified" job. She was the first women that was assigned to rebuild Norden bomb sights. They would bring the broken and damaged Nordens to Wright Patterson to be rebuilt. Her late husband (my grandfather) had taught her how to read blue prints (he was an architect for a while). Classified work, that took brains and skill (my grandmother was not a particularly big women). Posted by: Bossy Conservative....unfrozen caveman moron at May 27, 2017 11:11 PM (S6Pax) 173

howdy horde....just wanted to give an update to the Days of Our Lives from last night.
So, I guess at this little cookout, everyone "had someone" and he was feeling particularly lonely, which was why he was so sad. Why he didn't want to talk to me about it...who knows. But, after talking to him extensively...the long distance is taking quite a toll on him. He is not used to being tethered to his phone/computer, and feeling like he has to check in all the time. Which...I guess I get, but everything you read/hear about long-distance relationships is that consistent communication is absolutely necessary. It's pretty much all we have. He said he is used to, with his current friends....not texting much, but just talking to them in real life, and that's what he prefers. I told him he was comparing apples and oranges. Sure, I understand if you are going to see someone in an hour or the next morning, I can understand his point. But, we can't just be like...."See you in 4 months, bye" It's gonna be a while before we see each other (if at all, at this point) We have to keep in touch, that's all there is to it. I understand it isn't ideal for him, and I'm sorry that it adds a layer of stress to his life. He's not done with me, nor I with him, but I think the situation is just hitting him a lot harder than in the past few weeks. Just wanted to keep ya'll updated.

I'm not saying that MSG is bad for you. But, whoever thought the following statement is a powerful argument is pretty f'ng stupid:
And this makes sense - MSG is nothing more than a common amino acid with a sodium atom added. The placebo effect is more than strong enough to account for the negative effects sometimes associated with MSG. You know what happens when we combine that same sodium atom with plain old water? Sodium hydroxide, aka lye. It'll eat holes in you if you let it. But, that's chemistry for you. You can take a couple of harmless things, combine them together, and things can go sideways.

"But, after talking to him extensively...the long distance is taking quite a toll on him."
What? "He is not used to being tethered to his phone/computer, and feeling like he has to check in all the time. Which...I guess I get...." What? I don't get that at all. "He said he is used to, with his current friends....not texting much, but just talking to them in real life, and that's what he prefers." Well, I'd prefer to get laid by Sofia Vergara 4 times a day, but that's not how life always works. "I understand it isn't ideal for him, and I'm sorry that it adds a layer of stress to his life." You're on separate continents. How stressful is it gonna be when you're right in front of him??? "I think the situation is just hitting him a lot harder than in the past few weeks." What situation? Talking with some American chick he's never met? What's gonna happen when life throws him a real curve ball? Sorry, but this dude sounds very taxing emotionally.

So, something that may or may not have been pointed out. When people are starting a relationship, they are usually on their best behavior. Your guy seems to be coming across as needy and emotional. So it's possible that his BEST behavior is needy and emotional. What is his worst behavior going to look like? Do you really want to go there?

They sounded terrific and it was a great show. His past finally caught up with him though. He probably shouldn't have made it out of the 70s alive. Anyway, RIP Greg Allman.

That was meant to be a strike, not an italic. Pink, sweet girl, this is all very strange on your part. My honest impression is that you're trying to get something out of him, and you won't let a little thing like him losing interest stop you. Please let it stop you, or at the very least let it be friendship that drives you, not a romantic ideal. Posted by: Tammy al-Thor at May 27, 2017 11:47 PM (p8ef/) 258

A friend of mine working backstage at a venue was invited to a threesome by Gene Simmons and his girlfriend. She was a bit on the wild side, and I'm shocked to report she said no.

Posted by: gNewt at May 27, 2017 11:29 PM (6qmBU) ++++ That was one of the things that the "24 health 'facts' that are actually completely wrong" article was claiming to disprove. But, when you look at their "proof", there isn't much there. They actually use the phase "scientific consensus". But, no link or anything. Just that, plus some stuff about how MSG is made from harmless sodium and a harmless amino acid, so it must be ok. MSG never bothered me, but with so many people saying it bothers them, I think it is the opposite of science to just shrug and say it's all in their head. Posted by: Anon Y.

Maybe on the wild story. We'll see. His best friend already has plans for a spa day with me and a double date with her and her boyfriend...so, I guess if nothing else, I will make a new friend that way. And, hey, maybe her boyfriend has a cute brother or cousin! A strike, not an italic? Can you explain? My plan, even before talking to him today, was to back off. But, now, I am afraid it will come across as petty or like I am punishing him or something. So, I may just have to be a little more strategic in my backing off. I actually backed off about 3 weeks ago, and he came back at me stronger than ever, and in fact got upset that I was acting distant. So, it has not been all bunny boiler intensity as it were.

It's the new age of online dating my dear. There are some people who go years before meeting their significant other, one I think I saw as much a 6 or 7 years before they met. Which, that is something I cannot imagine. That is just way too long to wait before meeting. Also, it's not entirely without precedent. In the 1800s or even early 1900s, people met and corresponded via postal mail and fell in love before meeting each other. Some never even met. Shop Around the Corner is an example. I'm not saying it's common. It's not....it's very uncommon. But, you can't say that it NEVER happens. Posted by: Tickled Pink at May 28, 2017 12:17 AM (smD62) 314

I was looking at some pics in the Daily Mail of Melania and all the Euro first ladies (including one First Dude). Macron's "mother figure" Brigitte is pretty pitiful. She's a 64 year old woman trying to look young and sexy.
She was actually sort of hunched over wearing heels and some flirty LBD type thing. -- So she WAS the hag like blonde? I wasn't sure. There's something about liberal women, anger and age. They hate getting old. HATE IT. Perhaps it's because they feel they're getting closer to death, and know they are not good people. Posted by: shibumi at May 28, 2017 12:19 AM (aT+Bx) 318

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 From wife's cousin 20 yr retired Army Here's some ground rules for this weekend, Memorial Day Weekend. 1. Don't wish me a Happy Memorial Day - there ain't nothing happy about brave men and women dying 2. It's not a holiday or a sale, it's a Day of Remembrance 3. You want to know the true meaning, visit your local Cemetery or a VA Hospital, not Disneyland or mall 4. Don't tell me how great anyone in political power is; tell me about someone who gave the ultimate sacrifice for this country, or I can tell you about The Montford Point Marines during WWII. 5. Don't tell me I don't know what I am talking about, I have carried the burden all too many times for warriors who now stand their post for God. 6. Say a prayer, and then raise a glass and thank God for the men/women who are no longer here. PS: Do NOT "Thank" a living Veteran for his/her service... we'll get honored on Veterans Day in November!! This is time to remember that the true price of freedom is paid in the lives that defend it.

It's the new age of online dating my dear.
There are some people who go years before meeting their significant other, one I think I saw as much a 6 or 7 years before they met. Which, that is something I cannot imagine. That is just way too long to wait before meeting. Also, it's not entirely without precedent. In the 1800s or even early 1900s, people met and corresponded via postal mail and fell in love before meeting each other. Some never even met. Shop Around the Corner is an example.

Remembrance Day in Canada is very solemn. It's always on November 11, regardless of day of the week. Very few businesses are open. Even non-religious folk go to memorial services. Heck, even on the local sports talk station, at 11:00 there was a moment of silence followed by a reading of "In Flanders Fields."

That is just way too long to wait before meeting. ONE is a rather poor sample size. Um, no, years is rather RARE. Nearly everybody wants to meet up at some point to decide if it's worth carrying on. Because if you wait months/years then meet and it doesn't fly, look at all that time you wasted. A friend was gonna wait 6 months to meet a guy. That was too long. Need to find out from her if they ever met. When I was in Detroit I tried with a chick in Rochester, New York. We only waited a few weeks. Waiting months/years is typically pointless.

My father died, age 86, 2 years ago May 25 (which was Memorial Day). He's inurned in Arlington. (That means his ashes are in a little, brick-shaped urn in a "locker" in a wall in Arlington. Still....) We had a little family/close-friends ceremony. We had had a bit of a contentious relationship but I reached out to him when I found out, a few years earlier, that he had started suffering from what we would learn was Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. Awful, absolutely awful, disease. Anyway, I couldn't hold back the tears during the service, and man, when a trumpeter or bugler plays Taps, wow. That is one seriously onomatopoeiac tune.

Queen Mathilde was showing Melania and the others around, and there was one with Mathilde, Melania, and some other woman. There was some omission in the text and it looked like it said the woman was Queen Mathilde's *wife*. So just imagine when the royals go gay. Man oh man is that going to screw up the title and style system. What do you call a King's twink? A Queen? Somehow, I don't think that would go over well....

so, anyway, I have been ranting and raving to Mrs.YankeeFifth about the stupid personalized license plates we have been coming across. Today, after grocery shopping we were walking to our car and there was a prius with a bike rack and some liberal bumper stickers right behind our car. I pointed out the stupid personalized license plate and Mrs.YankeeFifth was sounding it out when she suddenly said it aloud and said "what a stupid license plate." She was right by the driver side window of the car which was rolled down and the driver heard every bit of it.
Mrs.YankeeFifth blushed slightly but the guy driving the car turned beet red. wonder how long he has to keep that plate? Guess I am going to have to set a better example for her. Posted by: YankeeFifth at May 28, 2017 01:33 AM (cPsPa) 453

I am a natural-born matchmaker and I cannot tell you how insane it drives me that these people do not try and contact one another.
She has already missed out on ThatHalfrican who is a gorgeous young man, but I am wondering about our beloved Slap And Montana seems like a really excellent place for an adventure, and I don't know why Miley might not like to go out, say, fly-fishing there. Fly fishing can be very adventurous. Posted by: Tammy al-Thor at May yeah, sure why don't you use your matchmaking superpowers to funnel these morons to VEGAS, dear lady?

Sorry, I apparently missed posting something, so that Mitterand thing appeared to come out of the blue. Someone had mentioned mistresses, and I asked which one was it where the head of state's wife and the mistress were there at the funeral. I apparently did not hit post. So I was answering a question that had I failed to actually ask here. And apparently Mitterand's wife had her on lover on the side as well. So she really didn't give a rip at all.

Doesn't always work, but don't stop trying. Matchmakers are invaluable. People don't know what they want, or who's right for them, nor how to say yes to a good deal. People will make the worst choices. Matchmakers are heaven's agents. Posted by: mindful webworker - make me a math at May 28, 2017 01:58 AM (ohWrE) 490

Fat: well at 5'10 and 220 I'm not thin. Blessed with the metabolism to eat whatever I want without appearing on the half ton people show. These days I'm learning why old people get skinny. There are days when hunger is insufficient to overcome apathy for cooking.

I made the mistake of getting one of those gadgets that is supposed to suppress barking. In response to any kind of noise the gadget would emit a loud ultrasonic noise.
It took a while to figure out that the noise of thunderstorms would set the thing off. The dog was not frightened by thunderstorms before I tried that thing and it took a few years afterwords before he got back to normal.

453 I personally think the observation that the leaders of France, the UK, Luxembourg (heh, not like the others but singled out for rump wrangling), Italy, and Germany have no children of their own is astute.
Posted by: logprof at May 28, 2017 01:34 AM (GsAUU) Hmmm. I did not sire any children but I assure everyone here that I am 100% straight and enjoy women very, very much. Sometimes having children just doesn't happen for various reasons. I was born with some internal birth defects "down there" that weren't discovered until age 27 or so. It required several surgeries to correct but I suspect that was the reason I never became a father. Posted by: Michael the Texan (formerly TEXIT) at May 28, 2017 02:54 AM (nvMvs) 535

Why do you think that the Trump campaign would not set up back channel communications with Russia? During WW2, the allies had secret connections with senior German officials. We have the hot line to Russia. The initial communications between the US and North Vietnam were secret. Carter communicated with Iran in secret. Reagan with Iran. The list goes on and it is hardly exhaustive. I see nothing even slightly unusual about a presidential political campaign trying to set up secret connections with Russia. If Hillary did not have such connections I think that she would be incompetent. The vast majority of communications between countries is not done in the public eye. That is good for everyone.

If you haven't read Max Hastings, but you are reading this thread, you should consider it. His two books about the ends of WWII, "Retribution," and "Armageddon," are classics. If you really want to understand the sacrifices made by veterans, to the degree that you can from the comfort of your own home, there are no better books IMHO.

"America owes an unpayable debt to our fallen heroes & their families."
I'm going to respectfully disagree with the "unpayable" part. We pay that debt by continuing to keep our country free (on the political side) and a Constitutional republic. It's the ONLY coin in which we can pay that debt. Sadly, that's the biggest deficit we have right now, far outpacing the fiscal deficit our gov't runs up.
