The Quotes of The Day


Quote I

We could pay for every idiotic boondoggle proposed by the 300 Democratic presidential candidates if the current president would simply keep his central campaign promise to build a border wall and deport illegal aliens. (Back off — “illegal alien” is the term used in federal law.Ann Coulter


Quote II

The trouble is, you cannot have a nation without a sovereign identity and there can be no sovereign identity without a nation. This is the core insight of multiculturalism, which was never intended to strengthen the West but to destroy it. To have a multicultural society is to have no culture at all. Once the people’s sense of who they are is destroyed, the nation must follow with it. That is exactly what we see in the West as political classes struggle to perform their basic duties. The Zman Blog


Quote III

"It shouldn't be the responsibility of anyone who is marginalized to amplify their voice when there are so many voices that can amplify (it for) them. But it's just the way of getting to where you need to be. So I'll do it. And hopefully I'll do it so that other girls in my position don't have to -- they can just live and do their jobs." Aaron Philip


Quote IV

“All we’re saying is it shouldn’t cost thousands of manufacturing jobs, raise the gas tax by 20 cents a gallon to start out with, and raise natural gas prices for people who heat their home by almost 50 percent. We think there’s a better way to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and so we’re holding out and only way we could do that and stop this vote is by not providing a quorum for Democrats to roll over us.” Oregon State Senator Tim Knopp


Quote V

“So often, we’re taught that to be an emotional stoic is the mark of manhood. If you show any emotional weakness or vulnerability, that’s a failure to your title of a man.” Scott Turner


Quote VI

“We estimate that there are 770,000 records that are eligible for expungement. That’s more than every other state that’s legalized adult use combined,” Steans says. “We are also doing a lot to make sure we get diversity in the industry.” Heather Steans, an Illinois state senator

First, it was never stick your dick in crazy. Now, be careful where you stick your tongue.

Twelve people have died in a ‘very serious’ outbreak of a rare bacterial infection that has spread in Essex. There have been 32 reported cases of the disease, called invasive Group A streptococcus (iGAS), the NHS Mid Essex Clinical Commissioning Group said. The bacteria can be found in the throat and on the skin – and people may carry it without displaying any symptoms. It can live in throats and on hands for long enough to allow easy spread between people through sneezing, kissing and skin contact

Spotify wants a refund.

As major music streaming services appeal a royalty rate decision, Spotify is taking things one step further: The world's biggest streaming music service is reportedly seeking a refund for overpayments made to songwriters and publishers last year, Music Business Worldwide reported.

Last year, a royalty rate-setting panel in the US, called the Copyright Royalty Board, ruled that a particular kind of royalty paid to songwriters and publishers should rise 44% or more for 2018 through 2022. The board finalized that rate -- called a mechanical royalty -- earlier this year. Then streaming services like Spotify, Amazon, Google and Pandora appealed the payment increases in March.

Now Spotify is saying it paid too much last year and wants a refund, according to Music Business Worldwide.

The National Rifle Association has a mess on its hands.

The NRA, The New York Lawsuit, Ollie North, And Chris Cox

The news yesterday regarding the National Rifle Association was headlined by a story in the New York Times that said Chris Cox, head of the NRA-ILA, was suspended and put on administrative leave. This followed a late Wednesday filing in New York Supreme Court (the trial level courts in that state) in which the NRA sought a declaratory judgment that Ollie North was not entitled to his legal expenses as a director of the NRA. Also suspended was Scott Christman who served as Cox's deputy chief of staff at the NRA-ILA.

Both Cox and Christman are accused along with NRA Board member and former Congressman Dan Boren of participating in a failed "coup" attempt orchestrated by Ackerman McQueen and Ollie North. Cox vehemently denies this.
“The allegations against me are offensive and patently false,” Cox said. “For over 24 years I have been a loyal and effective leader in this organization. My efforts have always been focused on serving the members of the National Rifle Association, and I will continue to focus all of my energy on carrying out our core mission of defending the Second Amendment.”


Trouble continues for the NRA. NRA shuts down television production.

The National Rifle Association has shut down production at NRATV.

The N.R.A. on Tuesday also severed all business with its estranged advertising firm, Ackerman McQueen, which operates NRATV, the N.R.A.’s live broadcasting media arm, according to interviews and documents reviewed by The New York Times.

While NRATV may continue to air past content, its live broadcasting will end and its on-air personalities — Ackerman employees including Dana Loesch — will no longer be the public faces of the N.R.A. It remained unclear whether the N.R.A. might try to hire some of those employees, but there was no indication it was negotiating to do so.

A majority of Americans regret their advanced college degrees.

Two-thirds of American employees regret their college degrees

A college education is still considered a pathway to higher lifetime earnings and gainful employment for Americans. Nevertheless, two-thirds of employees report having regrets when it comes to their advanced degrees, according to a PayScale survey of 248,000 respondents this past spring that was released Tuesday.

Student loan debt, which has ballooned to nearly $1.6 trillion nationwide in 2019, was the No. 1 regret among workers with college degrees. About 27% of survey respondents listed student loans as their top misgiving, PayScale said.

Toys R Us is making a come back.

Maybe American kids will only have to live through one Christmas without Toys “R” Us.

About a year after shuttering U.S. operations, the remnant of the defunct toy chain is set to return this holiday season by opening about a half dozen U.S. stores and an e-commerce site, according to people familiar with the matter.

Richard Barry, a former Toys “R” Us executive who is now CEO of new entity Tru Kids Inc., has been pitching his vision to reincarnate the chain to toymakers, including at an industry conference this week, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the plans aren’t public.

Good-bye Chevrolet Camaro.

Just weeks away from the long-awaited debut of the mid-engined Chevrolet Corvette C8, a rumor has surfaced regarding the Bowtie's other two-door performance car: the Camaro. And unfortunately, the news isn't great. According to Muscle Cars & Trucks, anonymous sources inside General Motors claim that development of the next-generation Camaro has been "suspended," and the nameplate will "likely be shelved again" after the current car is discontinued in 2023.

The current sixth-gen Camaro sits on GM's Alpha platform shared by the Cadillac ATS and CTS. Those two have recently been replaced by the CT4 and CT5, which are based on an updated version of Alpha imaginatively known as Alpha 2. Sounds like just the thing to build a seventh-gen Camaro around, right? Apparently not.

Clint Eastwood tells the Georgia boycotters to F*ck off.

CNS NEWS – Despite the boycott of filming in Georgia launched by Hollywood liberals angry over the state’s new pro-life “Heartbeat” law, legendary actor/director Clint Eastwood will be making his latest movie, “The Battle of Richard Jewell,” in Atlanta this summer, reported NBC Charlotte and other media.

“Clint Eastwood will perform new film in Georgia despite abortion bill boycott,” tweeted NBC Charlotte on June 25. The movie is about Richard Jewell, a police officer and security guard who discovered a bomb at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Ga., and saved countless lives. Jewell was initially hailed as a hero and then was viewed as a suspect.

Some of the actors slated to work on the Eastwood film include Kathy Bates, Olivia Wilde, Jon Hamm and Sam Rockwell.

A gamer is part of Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.

Streamer Ben "DrLupo" Lupo raised $920,343.98 for St Jude Children's Research Hospital in just 4.5 hours on Sunday.

DrLupo has raised millions of dollars for charity in the past, but yesterday's feat was a new record for the popular gamer.

"Thank you so much, to every single person that's donated. To every single person that's supported St. Jude. To every single person that's gonna be at Guardian Con. To every single person that freakin' loves gaming. And most importantly, from top to bottom, St. Jude,” DrLupo said at the end of the stream.

Let's get fired up - Spangler Cremation Service

I actually work in the same mini-mall as a cremation service. They have a sign in the window, "Complete cremation $585."

I've wondered what would happen if someone showed up there, asked about that service, and when they were assured it is still available, they slapped $585 in cash down on the counter and demanded to be personally cremated immediately.

30 I've been reading that the Dominican Republic is hurting for tourism this season.

Honestly: we're in June. This is entering into hurricane season. (My mum grew up in Barbados and we ALL grew up in Houston; we *know* this sh!t.) The Caribbean is, for middle class Americans and Canucks, cheap this time of year, all over.

We'll see how it goes come late October when the storms taper off.

45 Good evening,

Part of my public education was that the US didn't have a culture and other cultures were better.

Actually I probably had a few years of American culture taught in schools before that happened. But... I can almost remember the shift, I think it was around 4th grade. After that any positive American culture was learned from family.

And I don't regret getting my degree but I do regret my daughter getting hers. That's when she went off the rails.

51 It's objectively adorable how kittens can use their paws as washcloths to clean their faces. I, along with many of you, can watch these videos for days at a time, even forgetting to eat or (kitten alert!) bathe.

I think if the face-sized spiders started doing the same thing, they would make a pretty good inroad into American society and take their long-overdue status as beloved pets.

68 I'm willowing myself from the debate thread....

My kid was upset today that kids at her day camp were taking about how Trump is putting them in danger. These are 6-8 year old who obviously have no clue about anything Trump does or doesn't do, but just parrot their idiot lib parents.

Liberals have destroyed every fucking thing imaginable. Even 6 and 7 year old kids now can't spend a day having fun at camp without politics infecting it.

This shit really pissed me off. And no the counsellors didn't have anything to do with it if you're wondering. It's apparently the kids on their own.

75 "To have a multicultural society is to have no culture at all"

A culture is a shared set of emotional reactions to things, thoughts, sights, actions. They are learned from those you grow up around and are resistant to change.

What the Left has done in their control of education and entertainment is making a new culture that is really a very old one. The culture that the world had until that cultural exception that is America came into being. The culture of lords and slaves.

They all believe they will all be lords but that is not and never could be the case. Slaves are always 99.99% in the old culture.

It was just a great car (my memory informs me). It did everything well, from autocross to long back road trips from the northern midwest down to South Carolina.

111 I roll my eyes whenever I see a state by state comparison for things like rent. Oh CA is $35/hr. Yeah CA is also a huge place with big variances. Same with Texas. There are places in Houston that cost 10X as much as places in rural CA. And places in San Jose that cost 10X as much as rural TX. It's useless to do a TX vs CA comparison.

It's like red and blue states. They don't exist. There are blue cities and red counties. It's just that CA has more cities and TX has more counties, which makes the states red and blue. But inner Houston and inner San Jose aren't really any different, just like small town CA and small town TX aren't all that different.

180 Only 19 dollars an hour gets you a 2 bedroom home! God bless america!

I see similar info graphics on facebook from time to time as some kind of rallying cry to raise the minimum wage. As of the price of housing wouldnt just go up as well, and fewer people would have those jobs.

But the real question is why should the MINIMUM wage get you a MEDIAN house? That makes no sense. Who is going to live in a below average house? Or those don't exist in lake wobegone? Comparing a median wage to a median rent makes sense.

Can't say as I blame you. Eeyore needs to be on the Endangered Species List.

I try to have a net positive socio/political effect on at least ONE person per day. Often more, seldom zero.

It might be that I've encouraged a fellow Constitutionalist to "buck up" and stay with the Good Fight.

It might be that I dropped that "Just RIGHT" seed of mind-bending logic or heart-shattering truth, on some poor, unprepared libtard.

Either are POSITIVE effects, in my view.

We don't try to change the world, all at once.

One person at a time though, we can move mountains.

Don't worry 'bout they Day Walkers, they'll find their own way.

But YOU, sir, are an institution in the ONT, and I for one am not ready (nor ever will be ready) to salute you offa the Parade Grounds.

DO YOU HEAR ME, MAGGOT!? SOLDIER!?

At Ease.

Point is, we're gonna fight a lot more internal fatigue and fratricide in the upcoming election, than maybe ever before.

I would advise you this though. Make sure you're prepped for that worse case, and make sure we all pray it never comes to pass.

For ALL the reasons you so eloquently and frequently state.

260 Evenin' All,

No point in watching the Debased, so I didn't.

On covers:

Don't get all the love for "Hurt" by J.C. I suppose it's poignant & all that, and perhaps a good capstone on an incredible life & career, but musically it doesn't do much for me.

All the kids these days think Disturbd's cover of "Sound of Silence" is the bee's knees, but I find it over-wrought. S&G's original is more powerful, without trying to be.

Hendrix's version of "Watchtower" is superior, IMHO, to Dylan's original. I think there may be consensus on that. But then I'm not a big Dylan fan.

Speaking of cover artists owning a song, Jeff Buckley's "Hallelujah" is the classic example. Are the countless other versions of that song covers of Buckley's version, or of Cohen's original? As a bonus, here's a nice version by Over The Rhine: https://youtu.be/sbZVzultvFs

"Turn the Page" by Metallica is about on par with Seeger's original.

Again, not a Dylan fan, but I will concede that Dylan's original "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" is better than Guns 'n' Roses' cover.

Prefer Cowboy Junkies' cover of "Sweet Jane" to the Velvet Underground's.

Then there are the acts that do nothing but covers. Postmodern Jukebox puts unique spins on their covers, but to me it just seems gimmicky. Great displays of talent and ingenuity (with a little eye candy), but few of their songs would I consider listening to as music per se.

Anyway, that's my worthless opinion, for what it's not worth. Hope y'all are having a fine evening.

274 Well, the shop ramp saga continues. I got the cutting torch out today, and made my 92 inch cut through 5/16" plate steel. Only took about ten minutes; I honestly thought it would be a real struggle.

With that done, I was rid of all the unneeded steel on the underside of the old truck deck. I put some copper napthenate wood preservative in my little garden sprayer, and soaked down the underside of the planks.

Then I drilled a pair of 7/16" hole through the flanges of two of the steel channel cross-ribs, and the plank deck itself, and drove 7/16" bolts through the holes.

Then I used the tractor to flop it over. I bolted two short lengths of chain to the protruding bolts, laid the loader bucket down between the two chains, and chained up to them, using the grab hooks on the bucket and a length of chain with grab hooks.

I was then able to easily pick up the deck flat-wise with the loader bucket, and slowly drive it to where i will use it. It's now staged on the ground about 4 yards short of where it will be placed.

Then I did some shoveling and concrete-breaking to get the 6X6 that will hold up the door end of the ramp settled down into the ground about an inch so the sliding door of the shop will clear the ramp, and drove some pins into the ground to mark where I have to cut the sod to make a trench for the far end of the ramp to settle into, so its top is flush with the ground.

By that time, I was getting tired, and a T-storm was rumbling around, and it was commencing to rain, so I called it a day.

This time tomorrow, I should have a substantial access ramp to my other shop door.

That's correct. I wonder if the exact size is critical? I know it's essentially a thrust pivot under the vertical axis of a tone arm. Does the ball sit in a dimple on its underside, with a hard flat on the pivot above, or is it between two hard flats, with its sideways movement constrained by the bushing?

Dimple might forgive a slightly wrong size ball. Two hard flats, not so much.

283 Mott The Hoople's cover of Sweet Jane is good and underrated. I think the whole All The Young Dudes album has a slickness that is understated.

One song that had covers that were really different was CSN's Wooden Ships. Jefferson Airplane did a version. But the version that really came out of nowhere was Ides of March's version; Ides of March is best known for 'Vehicle'. 'Wooden Ships' with a horn section.

Another good cover is Foghat's version of 'Honey Hush', originally by Big Joe Turner.

REO Speedwagon, before they went all syrupy love ballad bullshit, did a credible version of Chuck Berry's 'Little Queenie'.

That ought to work with any ball close to 7/32, as long as it's not too big to fit in the well. A really small one might roll to one side, and not find the dimple, but +/- about 10 thou should not matter.

I remember having a really, really old RCA turntable, 1920's era, that used a ball thrust bearing like that under the cast-iron platter. As a kid, I could stand on it, and go round, at 78 RPM. Well, until I got bucked off. It was direct drive, with a synchronous clock-style motor employing a brass disc as a rotor, surrounded by massive coils.

Well, see, it's not so much that trannies need abortions, trannies need all those sweet gub'mint union-employees to navigate them through all the free-shit benefits they 'deserve'. If you're going to give away the house, give it away good and hard while expanding the Government (who would then contribute the Dems, making it a win-win for them).

If I was to host a debate in Rick World, I would have a 'pandering' lightning round. Ask the Klown Kar Kandidates just what they think is the most important of the free-shit to give away. At the same time, I'd have a calculator for the tv audience to see totaling up the dollars of all the free-shit they want to give away, ending with the question: Who pays for it?

I saw somewhere, maybe a joke, maybe not, that the total of the free-shit these klowns want to give away totals more then the GDP of the entire planet. It might be slightly exaggerated, but not by much. Open borders, with all the free-shit for illegals that entails, free health care, free college, free Medicare and, in Mayor Pete's case, free blowjobs. Oh wait, that's Cameltoe's platform.

Yeah they're going to spend more on all this crap but as someone on Tucker show said why do that when climate change is going to kill us all? If we're all going to become extinct because of fossil fuels we should devote every penny to that and not dick around with this other stuff. Didn't catch the guys name but he had a good point to make.

I was at the doctor's office the other day so I picked up Time Magazine to read. Of course it was well skinny and a shadow of its former self but it was all about climate change and several articles. This has to be the biggest hoax ever perpetrated in the history of mankind.

I was a farmer for many years 32 to be exact. And I'm a conservative and I believe a natural part of that is money to conserve our environment and the planet.

The flip side of that argument is that if we're all going to die in twelve years, what difference, at this point, does it make if we go bankrupt giving away all that free shit? Might as well make the whole world comfortable, on the backs of US taxpayers, before the world ends. And if the world doesn't end in twelve years, all we'll get is a big ol' "OOPSIE!"

323 Re abortion rights for trannies, if Castro really did refer to "trans women" needing abortions he had it backwards because a "trans woman" is a biological male who THINKS he's female. He would have meant "trans men", i.e. women who still have uterii and ovaries but think they're men.

WRT all the various state abortion laws being passed in anticipation of Roe being overturned.... I think the "unlimited abortion until birth" laws being passed in states like NY, IL, etc. are really bailout programs for an industry these states have deemed "too big to fail". Abortion rates have been dropping for years and numerous surgical abortion clinics have gone out of business long before the latest round of more restrictive laws in some states. There are many reasons for this but I suspect the #1 reason is that the Baby Boomer generation is now past childbearing age and there aren't as many women getting pregnant--either by design or by accident. Plus, surgical abortion is quickly being superseded by "morning after pills" and other measures that don't involve a trip to an abortuary. The surgical abortion industry is actually dying out and this recent push to promote it as a good thing is just a desperate attempt to prop it up as long as possible....

The hotel business is a nightmare for Management and I'll have No Part of it.

Had I not dealt with customers on a face-to-face basis for nearly sixteen years, I might have taken-up the "opportunities" presented by my Brother and one of my Best Friends in that industry.

The industry is bought-and-sold all the time and Management is treated like waste.

My stomach is sick for my Brother's situation this morning, as it directly relates to my own mental health. Without that "kid" relieving me once-a-week and helping with doctors appointments, I would fold.

438 > If cancelling college loan debt will allow increased spending in the

economy.

Unlike college debt, you can "cancel mortgage debt" by filing bankruptcy if it becomes unsustainable.

Can you give a good reason why a 45-year-old who got his greed ramped up by cable TV "house-flipping" shows should be able to walk away from his unsustainable debt, while an 18 year old who was indoctrinated from birth by his parents, teachers, and every other authority figure that he HAD to have a college education shouldn't?
How about businessmen such as (not to put too fine a point on it) Donald Trump? No bankruptcy allowed for them, either?
While I wouldn't support outright forgiveness of student loans, I would support making them dischargeable in bankruptcy, the same as every other loan (including other government loans, such as VA, FHA, and SBA loans).
Let the student take the credit hit and learn his lesson from that.

Kinda missing the point.

There is no measurement of 'unsustainable loan debt' in the college debt forgiveness madness.

You have debt?

It gets erased.

On the flip side, your idea of discharging under bankruptcy law. Would that then place the burden of financial loss on the University, or the taxpayer?

If the university were to lose out under bankruptcy, then I would full support the idea.

Perhaps create a new option.

Potential students apply directly to the university for loan funding.

The University finances the student directly.

The student declares bankruptcy..the University doesn't get paid back by the former student.

The University also would have the right to rescind the awarded degree.

Lia-watha was a wooden Indian standing on the stage
Pandering to the dimwits with people half her age
Lia-watha - a, just stood there and never let it show
'Cause she could never answer yes or no.

She always carried her recipe book and held a bottled beer
Her high cheekbooks signaled her heritage and she wasn't Queer
Lie-awatha - a, too stubborn to ever show a sign
Because her head was made of knotty pine.

Chorus
poor ol' Lia-watha, she never took a toke
poor ol' Lia-watha, because she wasn't woke
is it any wonder that her face is red
Lia-watha, that poor ol' wooden head.

Lia-watha, was a lonely Indian never went nowhere
Her heart was set on the free stuff - she'd spread it everywhere
Lia-watha - a, just stood there and never let it show
'Cause she could never answer yes or no.

Then one day a gropey competitor stole her schtick and left her at a loss
That left her stunned and bitter - oh, my, how she squawked!
Lie-awatha - a, just stood there lonely as can be
While contemplating changing to a "he".
