If I could ask, need some prayers Horde. Been looking for a job for months, with no luck. It is like I don't exist in the job market.
Yesterday, 3 job openings appeared that are in my very specific field. Minus some physical challenges that I have, I am perfect for these roles. I am about to apply to them, and could use all the prayer help I can get to ensure a good result. Thank you.

oh btw MSN says:
The Obama campaign paid a civil fine of $375,000 imposed by the Federal Election Commission after his 2008 campaign did not turn in reports for about 1,300 last-minute donations that totaled nearly $1.9 million. No criminal charges were filed.

Someone linked to this in one of the threads this week. I approve.
She has a Deco look to her, particularly about the tits. But it's Scandi and differentish. 1926?
Also I like the way she's Goddess-spreading. It's inviting.

They are arguing over border wall funding and McCarthy was haranging Hoyer over funding and Hoyer quite rightly said, to parapharse...
Hey dip shit, you've got 240 members you need 214 to pass a bill, why don't you guys proposes a bill and pass it and stop this bullshit game.
McCarthy meekly said, well I hope you guys understand how hard it is to govern when you take over.
I fucking did a spit take of my coffee when that stupid mother fucker said that.
I'm pretty sure the Donks will have no trouble at all coming up with 214 votes for anything and everything they want.
The GOP is a useless pile of dog shit.

Last night I was at a dinner thing with a lot of 20-somethings. Smart kids (and it's weird calling them kids since I'm barely 40 myself, but they seem so damn young and immature). Anyway, the topic of the Cali tax on texts came up. The consensus was it's a great idea since it helps the poor.
This is why ACO is where she is. Her views are the mainstream view of the typical younger millennial.

Normally it would be too early to cheat, but I was intrigued by the passion of our Scandi Cyclops.
Bauer died in 1918. This is from 1905.
The Exposition des Art Decoratif, which gave Deco its name, took place in 1925. This is an amazing precursor, because to me and someone else upthread it looks Deco.

That one exchange there encapsulates and demonstrates in the starkest terms possible the the GOP is an illegitimate political party in all that entails.
The sine quo non of a political party is the accumulation of political power to advance an agenda broadly supported by your coalition and voters.
That exchange demonstrates that that supposition is a lie as applied to the GOP.

A guy named Friedrich Gentz, who's one of the early prominent figures in German conservatism. Big opponent of the French Revolution, then Napoleon, then some of the crazy German nationalists afterward. Honestly, I'm kinda sick of the topic after four years of research and writing, but it's almost over (I hope).

power to advance an agenda broadly supported by your coalition and
voters.
They simply do not care about anyone except that they have power and are able to make lives miserable through the exercise of it. They have theirs, they have plenty of money and nothing to worry about. They're greedy, egotistical and arrogant. They never give one second of thought to how they'd feel if the situation was reversed and they were to have their lives destroyed instead.

One man may be reasonably pure, who can guarantee that a group of such are not corrupt?
Power corrupts. It's really that simple. The Founders knew that and sought to keep that to a minimum by making government weak and freedom strong.
But, as always happens, evil moves in and takes over. Evil always wins.

Hopefully that's part of it. I was young and stupid and a Democrat in my early days too. But by the time I hit my mid to late 20s I woke up. The kids I was with last night were several years out of college already. No signs of waking up whatsoever. Maybe like everything else, getting married, buying a house, etc, they just do things later? Who knows.

Frisian, which is a language from the coast of the Netherlands is pretty close to being gibberish English. If I recall something I read years ago correctly, those languages are pretty closely related to old Saxon.

I have a Thesis In a Box idea for a film student, but even though my No. 1 Son was a film major he didn't have to have a thesis. Also they didn't show him any foreign movies, but I digress. He got a stupid degree. Really, I taught him more than they did. I continue to digress.
There is a 1924 silent, Die Niebelungen, by Fritz Lang, which was heavily cribbed by Kurosawa for Ran.
Everyone says "oh, Ran is Kurosawa's take on King Lear". Yeah, no. It's Die Niebelungen. You've got the girl forced to marry the enemy warlord, check, she spends the whole movie plotting bloody revenge, check, she succeeds in destroying everyone and everything, check.
Also, the scene where the castle burns is basically a shot for shot steal.
Now, nobody knows this because who would watch both the Niebelungen (about six hours of silent film) and Ran? Well, I would. But I don't have a film thesis to defend.

Trump is a unique phenomenon in our history, and truly represents a desperate attempt to break out of the trap - and largely for specific reasons. But he made no effort to push the change into the GOP itself, apart from 2 or 3 spats with specific senators. And now we sit just one brief cyclical economic dip and one airhead Dem presidential candidate with the right skin color or genitalia away from almost everything Trump has accomplished being washed away in a few weeks.
But come on, let's be fair-minded. There will be historic prison sentencing reform next week! Almost certain to be a disaster, not to mention a direct blow to a drug war that is almost entirely a cross-border gang war enabled by GOP/Dem borderless idiocy. But ..... historic, likely to gain Trump at least 1,458 votes from the black community, and comforting to moral narcissists in power! And all those chants of "prison sentencing reform, now!" at Trump rallies can be retired.

Thankfully no. Goes to a conservative Catholic university (Franciscan). So she (and I) are pretty insulated from such idiocy. Also, she knows not to bring home anyone with ear gages, nose or lip piercings. I promised her I would treat such suitors in the same manner as Al Bundy would to his daughter Kelly's suitors (bang them into the door several times, kick them in the ass, etc.).

The American System program was invented by Henry Clay and the Whig Party before the Civil War but it was not implemented because the South vehemently opposed it and was successful in blocking it until after they "left" the country and gave Dishonest Abe a free reign over the North. The first major project was the Transcontinental Railroad which was a major disaster due to rank corruption.

Axelrod & Obama were both products of one of the most corrupt political environments ever created, the Chicago Democrats. And back in the days before
Twit-Idiots existed, blogs were the go-to for quick takes on politics.
Axelrod came up with that Russian bot nonsense during the 2016 election because he himself was the originator of fake blog comments back in 2008.

above all confirms that voters have power and responsibility. Ludicrous
outcomes like AZ's senate vs. governor race this cycle also
spectacularly refute medieval escapist explanations.
Trump was the anomaly, but he had his own money. And look at what's happening to him.
I keep posting this quote from TFG's fellator David Plouffe: "His kind must never rise again." He was referring to PDT and also to everyone who supports him.

I honestly don't care what anyone else believes. By all means, follow the evidence and make your own mind up. I follow the facts and information as best I can and develop my own opinion. I don't give a shit if you disagree and I certainly don't feel the need to endlessly say you are an idiot if you don't.

The wiki captions it as an oil sketch, 1905. But in the narrative of his life it talks about him portraying his wife Ester nude in a Freja painting and that's 1917.
If you look at his other paintings as a sort of progression, ours fits in better with 1917. (A 1913 Freja is much more primitive). So I'm going with this is 1917 and it points toward Deco because Deco is about to happen.

@SheriffClarke
.@Judgenap gets a lot wrong. People hesitate to challenge him because he's a former judge. The judge did NOT find that @realDonaldTrump ordered and paid Cohen to commit a crime. All the judge in the case did was accept a plea agreement by prosecutors.

The AZ GOP was the tool and weapon of McCain. According to sources I trust (because he's Metal AF), any truly conservative types were neutered and drummed out of the party.
It's going to be a fight getting conservative candidates established there. But it's a fight worth having, last thing we need is more California money tainting yet another state.

To paraphrase Lao Tzu, every extreme generates its opposite.
Smothering goodness breeds evil (look at Prohibition for an example). Too much evil leads to a crusade to end it. Pass so many laws that everyone becomes a criminal, and people will wantonly disobey them. If there is anarchy, someone will put an end to it and make laws.

I do all the time. I did in the last thread where I posted an article by Sara Carter which was a recap of yesterdays House Oversight Committee hearing where she said plainly that the whistleblowers have been in contact with the FBI on multiple times and they confirmed that there is an active and ongoing investigation into the Clinton Foundation being run out of Little Rock, Arkansas. I didn't make it up.
I realize you don't believe that. You've been very clear. But I listened to every word of that hearing. I heard the exact same thing both Sara Carter and John Solomon heard and I said that and gave evidence.
How is that not providing evidence?

I rather doubt that TFG gets calls from bill collectors every day because he doesn't have the money to pay for medical bills. He's got his and he doesn't give a rat's ass about anyone else who's suffered from the shit he did while in office. BJ Cliton is another one. He gets to live the high life as a reward for destroying mine and millions of other people's lives. Must be nice.

I'll have to look into that ... more recently, the "Chicago School" eliminated the responsibility of American business to have any regard for America.
"For example, the Business Roundtable, a forum that represented CEOs,
stated in 1981 that "the long term viability of the corporation depends
upon its responsibility to the society of which it is a part".
That view changed in the 1980s spurred on by Milton Friedman and
others affiliated with the "Chicago school" of free market economists
who argued the "only social responsibility of business is to increase
its profits".

"Jeff at themarketswork" (his twatters nic) muses that the footnote in the sentencing memo getting all the attention, because it appears to imply that Flynn's interview summary (the FBI Form 302) was written up 8 months after the fact. Which would be a big issue for various reasons.
But the language of the 302 seems to indicate it summarizes an interview *of the FBI agents involved, Pientka and Strzok*, not the infamous ambush interview of Flynn in the WH.
Which would result in one big "never mind", in the ongoing saga.
