Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Oh, My: Capital Police Strongly Imply That, Despite the Squad's Claims That They Are the Subjects of Intolerable Death Threats, They're Not Receiving More Threats Than Many OthersVia Karen Townsend at Hot Air (yeah I know but she's okay), it seems as though The Squad might be employing the crybully tactic of "damselling" made popular by feminist Anita Sarkesian but then perfected by femmy David French. The threat assessment regarding members of the squad, who have recently clashed with President Trump, remains low compared to some other lawmakers. One source told Fox News that even though the four had been in the news a great deal, they were still low-profile, freshman members. Some lawmakers' significant others are more worried about safety than the lawmakers themselves. There is concern in the security ranks that if the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) responds to the "noise" surrounding the squad, it may actually miss more bona fide threats against other lawmakers."Damselling" is internet slang for being a constant attention whore and drama cyclone and always claiming you're under attack, usually to gain sympathy, White Knights, and even money (especially through Patreon donations) and jobs (from leftwing media looking for leftwing "victims" of the right).

Even Sarkeesian weaseled around the OMG DEFF FWETTS trope eventually. She later said the worst of it (read: the only of it) was the "Day To Day Grind" of constantly having to hear abusive comments like that she was grifting, lying, and attention-whoring.
I.e., Anita was having to hear the truth. And she was seeing that others were hearing it too. Posted by: boulder t'hobo at July 19, 2019 07:13 PM (ykYG2) 22

Anita Sarkeesian is a woman who inserted herself into the video game industry as a consultant to "help" game developers avoid misogynism. When Gamergate erupted, she leaped into it. Sadly *cough* she was recently forced to shut down her non-profit consulting business as the three employees (including herself) on the payroll were apparently just too much for the company's shoestring (/sarcoff 1.6 million, iirc) budget.

Update
Just got off phone with Dad. He started having chest pains yesterday evening and Mom and him went into the hospital. They did all the tests once he was whisked in the emergency room. He said 'chest pains' and the staff went into overdrive to get him admitted. They put a stint in. Brother thinks above the heart, my brother is such a moron sometimes... They also gave Dad a shot in the side of the abdomen to help keep the blood thin and such, he was told not to touch it, and it is itching like crazy. But if everything checks out, he will be released tomorrow. Thank you Horde for your prayers. Though everything looks good, being a near miss and all that. I still feel like I am being torn up inside just thinking about what could have been. Posted by: Anna Puma at July 19, 2019 07:24 PM (RnxWP) 99
Too bad Andrew Breitbart is no longer around, because I'm pretty sure he would have shown up at the Minneapolis airport with camera and mike with several questions for Omar's fan club.
As for the death threats, I would bet good money that AOC, unlike her three fellow horses asses, truly believes she is in danger.

Leftwingers on the internet are always claiming they're getting "death threats" but for some reason they're never able or williing to produce them.
Often they take something like "DIAF" (die in a fire) as a "threat," even thought it's obviously just a "fuck you." They also construe "fuck you" as a "rape threat." Posted by: ace at July 19, 2019 07:24 PM (PbpT7) 101

They define "threat" as anyone who disagrees with them or points out their idiocy. So, yeah- threats galore.

A Bush, McCain, Romney sign in your yard was dangerous for your family because of doxing, swatting, physical attacks. Bumper stickers would get your car keyed. "Social" media bannings and firing from your job for daring to be honest have been a reality for years.

Heart attack anecdote:
I had 5-6 episodes of bad heartburn over 3-4 days. When it happened again on day 4, I called 911. Ambulance folks ran an EKG here at the house and said it looked "mostly normal" and suggested I contact my doc. The next day it happened again, I called 911 and the same folks arrived. Same thing, "mostly normal" ekg, BP a bit high. They said it was my call as to whether they transported. I said let's just get me in, I need to be checked. Joked around with the ambulance EMT on the way, all was fine. They got me into a room, hooked me up to an EKG, said everything looked "mostly normal" but they would keep me an hour or so, monitoring. The heartburn thing started again while I was in my emergency room cubicle. Someone poked their head in when I hollered, took one look at the EKG and called a code STEMI. I had a cardiologist at my side within a couple of minutes. He told me I was having a major heart attack. I had a team on me and was in the cath lab within about 5 minutes. And a constant companion from the minute they called the code all the way through the procedure, of one person standing by with paddles. Turns out it was the widow maker and by the grace of G_d I was in the emergency room when it happened. 100% blockage in the LAD artery. One stent and four months later I am (more or less) good as new. My message is: better safe than sorry. Do not ignore what seems like something that will pass.

Lovely. We ought to sic the Four Night Mares of the Apocalypse after Wyoming Valley West School District
Apparently the district has sent out threatening letters to parents warning that they will abduct their children and place the kids in to foster care if the deadbeat parents don't pony up on their little reprobate's overdue school lunch bills. We are talking about over $20,000 that the district is wanting to collect with the four top deadbeats allegedly owing as much as $450. Yep. The school district is willing to separate children from their parents for no more than four hundred and fifty dollars. https://tinyurl.com/yxqeeyfj Tell me that the government doesn't consider us all property of the State.

I had the opposite. I thought I was having a heart attack as I was finishing snow-shovelling the sidewalk and driveway (after having eaten a bacon and egg breakfast) but the usual symptoms didn't worsen and I felt much better later. Then I had a similar 'attack' just laying down on a couch a day or so later so I made an appointment with my GP who told me to call 9-1-1 if it happened again before my appt in the next few days. Just before bed I had eaten some dessert bars my mom had made that were peanut butter and mini-marshmallows; laid down and had another bad attack, so I called the ambulance. Luckily, it turned out to be severe GERD but after the 3-day hospitalization and testing, my GP told me again consulting later that you should call 9-1-1 if you ever have heart-attack symptoms.

When I was in the hospital at the end of May, one night I thought I was having the classic symptoms of a heart attack. Pain in my left chest, radiating into my shoulder and arm. I tried to ignore it for awhile, but it was so bad I couldn't sleep and finally rang for the nurse.
The funny thing was, I was hooked up to a heart monitor at the time and he said it looked completely normal. He gave me a painkiller and I finally went to sleep. Posted by: rickl at July 19, 2019 08:08 PM (sdi6R) 356

And it appears that the Texas Pirate Dan Crenshaw thinks that we aren't pissing away yet enough tax monies on myths and fairytails.
He wants to piss away $50MM on coming up with ways to "capture carbon". Give me the damned $50MM and I'll tell you to clear cut old growth forests and replant with new trees. Otherwise, we are far better served by having increased CO2 in the atmosphere as plants thrive on it and more CO2 means less water used. So Dan Crenshaw, who was supposed to be the next Great Savior, is another damned Millennial who is scared of the weather.

Well that was fun. Wind came, guessing maybe straight line winds? Have a few trees in the woods down, one in the yard and some branches but nothing hit the house thank God. Wife's flowers are destroyed, she's gonna be bummed. Have some lawn furniture etc. scattered. Now it's just raining to beat the band. Dog is finally relaxing so that's a good sign. I really had no idea some have never seen a green sky, they are fairly common here in the summer. Have some wood to cut tomorrow I guess. All is well here otherwise. Bourbon is secured!

Marlon, that rule is pretty crude. Depends upon the PV (pressure velocity relationship) of the application. There are lots of rotating bearings out there that should be greased and not oiled.

The reflector was 126 feet (38 m) long and 38 feet (12 m) tall, weighing 40 tons..." This was a rotating antenna. The ball race diameter was 12' 7", 125 balls, each 3" in diameter. The bearing itself weighed 3 1/2 tons. The rotating load was 70 tons. Probably used grease. Posted by: Mike Hammer, etc., etc. at July 19, 2019 08:22 PM (CDGwz) 428

I've seen a green sky on a couple of occasions,
Green skies are NOT good. I was at a Saturday festival facilitated by the management company for the hi-rise our company occupied. Lots of food, fun and people. then the sky turned green. With a few other people I went inside the building to go show them the vacant top floor that was circled by a balcony so we can watch the storm blow in. It did. Boy howdy. As soon as the elevator doors opened, the change in the floor space's pressure dropped and the powerful winds that instantly kicked up blew in two of the massive floor-to-ceiling windows wrapping the building. The rain came blowing in horizontally and was getting the floor wet as far as forty feet from where the windows blew out. Never did make it out on to the balcony, but it was absolute mayhem down below as tables, chairs, decorations, etc. were violently being blowing around. I have always been concerned about green skies since. Posted by: Blue Bird of F'ing Joy at July 19, 2019 08:23 PM (lD3vL) 434

Some of you people need a geography lesson - the Persian Gulf is 600 miles long and roughly 150 miles wide at its widest. The US has a full carrier group in the Gulf, the closing time for an F35 in that space is a blink of an eye. The Mullahs aren't going to challenge Trump - this is the EUs problem let them figure it out.

This will probably get willowed, so I may have to repeat it. Mr. Empire has been diagnosed with diverticulosis, and while I've tried to research that on the internet, there are so BLINKIN' many sites I don't know what to look at or believe.
So, hordesourcing. What should someone with that problem eat or not eat? I'm sure some of us here have that problem. Posted by: Empire1 at July 19, 2019 08:17 PM (ZWw89) ~~~~~ Hi, Empire1. Lots of experience with that! LOL First of all, if his colonoscopy revealed diverticulOSIS, there is no need to worry. That just means that there are tiny pockets that have formed in the walls of the intestines. They are very common, especially in those who have attained the median Horde age of 29. The problems arise when one or more of those pockets become inflamed/infected. Then you've got diverticulITIS. Big difference. Most times diverticulitis can be treated with antibiotics, but sometimes if there is an abscess or perforation, surgery is required. But note: most people live many years--or even forever--with absolutely no issues with their diverticulosis. Posted by: IrishEi at July 19, 2019 08:31 PM (NtglE) 467

Empire1. Treatment for diverticulosis is all over the place. Nuts ok, not ok. Corn ok, not ok.
Search for a good gastroenterologist. After 20 years and 13 attacks of diverticulitis I finally had to have a colon resection. Find someone good and nip it in the bud before it becomes an issue. Ask around. Family physician, family and friends. Actually the doc that helped me the most was my surgeon. Best advice around. I'm on a fiber supplement for the rest of my life. Benefiber helps a lot. Also lots of water in his diet. Posted by: neverenoughcaffeine at July 19, 2019 08:32 PM (kOaQR) 469

Empire1:
Sounds like he got an infection without perforation or abscess. If he had either of those, they probably would have kept him for a day or two on intravenous antibiotics. My husband had one severe attack, with perforation, about 14 years ago. In hospital overnight on IV antibiotics, and then oral at home. He has taken one FiberCon each day since and has never had another episode. I, on the other hand, just had an infection (no perf) but ended up with a severe reaction to the IV antibiotics in the ER. Thank God I was there--anaphylactic shock. Long story short, they had a helluva time finding an antibiotic I could take and so I couldn't shake the infection. Ended up with a partial colectomy 4 months later. Surgery was done robotically and I was back to work after about 8 days. Have never felt better!
