Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Tuesday Overnight Open Thread (2/25/20) From Somewhere On The Road EditionQuote I “Too many fast-food workers have been fired without a just cause, without a warning, without even any notice. And if you can be fired simply on the whim of an angry boss or a disgruntled customer’s complaint, then you’re far more vulnerable to harassment or abuse.” Council member Adrienne Adams Quote II “Being a lifer, I’m in a unique position where I sometimes have access to these people and I have so little to lose,” Prisoner Jonathon Watson Quote III “Whether it will be contained or not, this outbreak is rapidly becoming the first true pandemic challenge that fits the Disease X category, listed to the WHO’s priority list of diseases for which we need to prepare in our current globalised society,” Prof Marion Koopmans Quote IV The elites are aware of our existence largely through hearsay, having disengaged from the life of the nation within a century of its founding, driven away by militant factions and other lunatics, the upper class among them. The elite are as disconnected from the class structure as are homeless drunks, and share a similar indifference. But to their credit, while they're neither virtuous nor commendable, it isn't the elites who are peddling woke causes or looting whole industries or buying boltholes in New Zealand. It's their cunning and voracious aspirants, the upper class, which to our everlasting shame is our ruling class. Woodpile Report Quote V “Michelle Obama praised him because he gave so much money. So no one in the Hollywood can ever lecture us again about morality because they knew all of this, but he poked all the right buttons, all the virtue signals.” Greg Gutfeld Quote VI "It was more the fact that I felt it was unfair that I faced that charge. I felt a criminal conviction for dangerous driving would be harsh, especially for the first time I'd ever been charged for anything," Kingston Webb The deep horn aboard the Binaiya rumbles as a nearby ship worker shouts, “Hurry on, we leave in 30 minutes.” Amid the intense heat and humidity, what appears to be a sea of people squeezes through narrow gates. Above their heads, cardboard boxes of uncommon shapes crowd surf their way up to the front as the many uniformed guards stamp available arms, ensuring a steady flow. The mass moves towards the ship like a well-oiled machine of chaos. Where exactly is everyone going? Indonesia is the world’s largest island nation, an archipelago consisting of more than 17,000 officially registered islands. While the vast majority of the 264 million people that call this country home are spread across just two of these, Java and Sumatra, many live scattered among over 6,000 other islands.

ICE ignores California laws and arrests illegal aliens at the courthouse door In 2018, California implemented the California Values Act, which gave special protection to illegal aliens by mandating that California law enforcement agencies cannot cooperate with federal immigration authorities. Last week, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE” thumbed its nose at California and arrested two people in Sonoma County Superior Court. California has lots of reasons to hang onto its roughly 2.2 – 3.5 million illegal immigrants. They provide cheap, easily-exploited labor. They swell the state’s population, which matters for electors and congresspeople, as well as the distribution of certain federal funds. As illegal immigrants are fed into the system, they provide reliable (legal or illegal) Democrat votes. And they make Californians feel virtuous even as they allow corrupt Latin American states to continue exploiting their own citizens and destroying their economies by relying on remittances from people illegally in America. Wow, a woman urinates alcohol. Doctors Report The First Known Case of a Person Who Urinates Alcohol A woman in Pittsburgh has become the first documented case in a living person of an unusual medical condition where alcohol naturally brews in the bladder from the fermentation of yeast. Has the U.S. military jumped the green shark? The Pentagon aims to bridge the divide between climate believers and deniers - U.S. military leaders have to plan for operations all over the world, so they can’t afford to ignore climate change or the debate its causes. I’ve studied military and security issues for decades. Although President Trump has called climate change a hoax and worked to reverse the Obama administration’s climate initiatives, senior U.S. military officers have long been aware of warming’s detrimental effects. Military leaders believe climate change seriously threatens U.S. national security. They contend it is stirring up chaos and conflict abroad, endangering coastal bases, and stressing soldiers and equipment, which undermines military readiness. But rather than debating the causes of climate change or assigning blame, they focus on how warming undermines security, and on practical steps to slow its advance and minimize damage BALTIMORE, MD- Fox5 affiliate WBFF reported that over half of the thirty-two candidates currently vying for the position of Baltimore Mayor have criminal records. Likely they’re trying to keep up with disgraced former mayor, 69-year old Catherine Pugh. Where to begin. Let’s start with Pugh. In November of last year, Pugh plead guilty to the federal charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, conspiracy to defraud the United States, and two counts of tax evasion, crimes which she had been committing from November 2011 through their discovery in March of 2019. Her sentencing is set for February 27. Report: Michigan State University’s police seek to identify anonymous users from online Q&A with MSU president Last week, Michigan State University’s new president, Samuel L. Stanley Jr., sat for an online question-and-answer session hosted by MSU’s student government, the Associated Students of MSU. After anonymous comments during the event were condemned as racist, the ASMSU reportedly asked the MSU Police Department to seek out the IP addresses of the anonymous commenters, and a report by The State Press suggests that the university’s police are pursuing an investigation. Today, FIRE wrote to the MSU Police Department for answers about this troubling development. The Q&A took place on Feb. 18 through a third party website, Slido, through which students could submit questions and comments — and do so anonymously, as noted in media coverage ahead of the event.[The Ban HammerTMwas just overhauled, so please be aware!] Is this the future for patients with Alzheimer's or dementia?

Hosting the G20 economic summit in its capital city of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia has the opportunity to showcase for the world’s most powerful finance ministers the recent gains made for women in the kingdom’s economy. Once maligned for policies that kept women from driving or being hired in large numbers, the Saudis have secured some strong words of praise in recent weeks from the World Bank as well as U.S. presidential daughter and adviser Ivanka Trump. Part of the impetus for that praise evolves around Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman’s “Vision 2030” plan that pledges to diversify the kingdom’s economy beyond oil and gas and increase women’s participation in the workforce from 22 percent to 30 percent. Last month, the World Bank Annual Report on Women, Business and the Law (WBL) declared Saudi Arabia had generated the “biggest improvement” among 190 countries surveyed over the last three years . Fighting chlorine bleach, Super-duper sperm making news in Indonesia. The possibility of non-penetrative conception in swimming pools isn’t exactly a new rumour. The urban legend goes that unsuspecting girls can get knocked up via ejaculation in pools. As scary as that sounds, most people don’t actually take it seriously anymore. But apparently, one Indonesian government official still does. In an 8-minute video interview with Tribunnews.com posted on Saturday, February 22, Sitti Hikmawatty, a college professor who is also a commissioner in Indonesia’s Commission for the Protection of Indonesian Children (KPAI) claimed that indestructible sperm could impregnate women in swimming pools.

That's key to understanding Buttgag. There's no humility, no sense of sin, no repentance in him. Its central to Christianity; if you have none of that its probably because you aren't a child of God. One of the things Christians grow in most over the years is a sense of God's greatness... and by contrast, their sin.
If all you do is lecture others over their wrong, never admit or even allow for the possibility that you're wrong or sin... that's not faith. That's arrogance and possibly even insanity. Remember Obama's definition of sin? "Being out of alignment with my values." You cannot be a sinner if you define it by your own beliefs.

Sis flew in from out of state. She told my daughter how she wiped down her area, tray, all that. Daughter replied, yeah, her ballet teacher had just flown in, too. Teacher told how, on the plane, she had wiped down her whole area, then turned to the man next to her and offered him the wipes. He declined. She put her mouth into the crook of her elbow and coughed twice, gently. *ahem ahem* Are you sure? He took the wipes. Sis may have been a tad miffed that Daughter topped her story.

The grill's heated up. How many minutes per side do you all recommend? Three? One? Negative 5? If it helps: it's a NY strip, just over a half-inch thick. Posted by: qdpsteve at February 25, 2020 10:19 PM (L2ZTs) That is a thin steak. I think by the time you are done searing it on both sides (about 2.5 minutes per side, assuming your grill gets hot enough), it will be done. Then all you will have to do it take it off, cover it with aluminum foil, and let it rest for five minutes. Unless you like it done to the consistency of shoe leather, in which case leave it on indirect heat (i.e. not over an open flame) for another minute or so before taking it off and resting it.

I just want them to tell me the correct number of hurricanes, floods, fires, droughts are baseline normal.
We've had hurricane data for the US mainland since the 1850's. There has been no change in either the number of or severity of hurricanes over that period. Hurricanes do more damage now, because the coasts are more developed - a hurricane hitting Florida in 1910 would have done little damage. Two major hurricanes hit New England within a ten-day period in 1954. If that happened today, this would be cited as proof-positive of global warming.

So Wow - just wow! NBC is suggesting that the Miracle on Ice USA Hockey team from 1980 - yes those guys - are facing a backlash from supporting Trump and wearing MAGA hats!
What NBC and MSN are really suggesting is that they SHOULD face a backlash - not that they are. They're essentially reporting that Trump critics (meaning them) are upset about their wearing the hat which = get this - "represents to many hate and racism" So, to be clear, NBC thinks the USA Hockey team from 1980 that beat the Soviets are "haters and racists" - you can't make up the shear insanity of the media - its impossible.

And no I don't like shoeleather. I like tender steak. :-) Posted by: qdpsteve at February 25, 2020 10:27 PM (L2ZTs) I should add that while you are grilling/searing, watch out for flare ups. Hot spots or fat dripping in the wrong place can burn your instead of searing it. If that happens, just move the steak away from the flames and keep cooking for the remaining time. Some people keep a small spray bottle of water handy to put out the flames on these occasions as well. Posted by: HTL at February 25, 2020 10:36 PM (J50A0) 196

What pisses me off so much about "The Military Belives in Climate Change!!!" is that starting in 2008, the Obama admin let it be known that they were Strongly In Favor of Climate Alarmism, and if any Military Command Level types got on board with it, they would have a Fast Track to the General's rank. And that's the moment that suddenly a whole bunch of Lt. Colonels got the Climate Change Religion and started pushing it as hard as they could, no matter what it cost, no matter whether it made any sense or not. (it didn't)
and now they write articles saying "Oh, the Military has Believed in Climate Change for Years!!!" Yeah, right, 12 years exactly. Posted by: Tom Servo at February 25, 2020 10:37 PM (V2Yro) 199

fortunate the US is to have Joe Biden as a politician ?? Why he's singlehandedly fixed almost every problem in the US and indeed in most of the entire world in the last 47 years. And is still going to continue doing so !! The mind boggles .No mattter what is is he was there and already did it twenty years ago. And with people who died years before that. Next he's going to cure cancer , alzheimers, ebola , coronavirus and lupus. And sooner than you thought possible. Posted by: Lord Percy etc at February 25, 2020 10:39 PM (+bKWx) 210

--------------- Depending on if this thing turns out badly or not, there might not be enough supplies to stockpile. I read an article the other day that talked about how the company 3M - which makes masks that will protect against the virus - has massively ramped up production to fill the need. They've expanded shifts on their existing production lines, and have started new short-term production lines. All this because as things currently stand, there simply aren't enough masks for the projected demand. Posted by: junior at February 25, 2020 10:51 PM (/sKj3) 263

garrett, I need to get me to a proper butcher shop
Posted by: qdpsteve at February 25, 2020 10:29 PM (L2ZTs) Not necessarily. Most supermarkets operate full service butcher counters in addition to the pre-cut stuff that they put out in the packages. That means you can go up and ask you to cut them a steak to your desired thickness. Or two or three, if they offer BOGO deals or value-pack pricing. You can always wrap them in cling wrap individually at home and freeze the one(s) you aren't going to cook immediately. In the case of a boneless NY strip, a steak 1.25" to 1.5" thick will be around 1 to 1.4 lbs. At least in my area, if you watch for sales, you can still get those for around $8 per lb. Ribeyes fall into the same general category. That will be enough for my wife and I to split one for dinner, or if I am eating alone, it leave leftovers for steak and eggs or a steak sandwich the next day. Or I suppose you cut cut the individual steaks in half and only grill half and save the rest for the next night. Anyway, not that much more expensive than what you just bought, at least per serving.

The only time they get involved is if someone goes overboard, lights some place on fire, or someone gets a hand blown off or something.

342 I can hardly take all the doom and gloom today.
According to Dale Carnegie (How to Stop Worrying and Start Living) almost everything that worries you today will be resolved or forgotten in six months. But six months from now is getting pretty close to the election. And the left will do everything it can to awful-ize every situation it can, prior to the election.

333 1)the media will Katrina it, and blame him
2) people will freak out and want big daddy government to come in and fix it all with huge spending and that means the Democrat. I'm afraid of this, especially of 2. Posted by: DonnaV at February 25, 2020 11:08 PM (d6Ksn agreed. Trump should a do what it takes to stop this. and B, combat this Trump blaming. You are right. A hell of a lot of Americans believe by default that the answer to everything is more government. The Dems showed this tonight. Even when they agreed with some things Trump did, they said they would have done it differently and with more government. Where are the Repubs explaining to people that we don't want to be France where the federal government is the largest employer? Where is the push back in the schools, churches, and communities? And Bush was bashed over Katrina but he DID win a second term. That is the thing. I would take a Trump second term over anything at this point. My point is it could be worse. I said this weeks ago and got a bit up pushback. For sure the left sees the Corona virus as an opportunity and it is a threat to Trump's presidency. It is not exactly a positive occurrence. And again, just like I said weeks ago when I predicted the danger to the presidency. I am only talking about the political fallout. I am not making light of the human loss. We need to stop this thing now. But humans being humans, will try to make political hay out of this to feather their own nest.

Cap gun!!! I remember sitting out on the curb with a box of caps and a hammer. I'd separate a single roll from the main roll and either try to smash the whole roll with one swing of the hammer or carefully pop each individual cap.
New Jersey law forbade any type of fireworks except snakes, sparklers, and caps. Why the hell they let us little kids have sparklers is beyond me. Those things are hot, hot, HOT!!! My father worked for Cities Service on the Turnpike so he was friends with a lot of the State Troopers.

I think Lincoln's white house used that system. I know the local Masonic lodge had an acetylene generator at one point - back before electrification here, it supposedly created a bubble of gas and went POP during a meeting covering everyone with soot. (the hydraulic press channel was playing with soap bubbles filled with acetylene gas at one point. Not safe) Posted by: Kindltot at February 26, 2020 12:10 AM (6rS3m) 462

Cavers used those for a long time after regular miners had stopped.

Actually, it was once the source for acetylene torches. While you know, some among us will not know that it once was referred to as 'Miner's Lamp'. I know of one explosion that resulted at the bulldozing of an old foundry. Cannister of carbide got shoved into a muddy pond, then was ignited by sparks from rocks being shoved around. Posted by: Mike Hammer, etc., etc. at February 26, 2020 12:01 AM (xSo9G) Yeah. Those were the chief uses for carbide. Also for auto and bicycle lamps. The Prestolite Company. I have an actual acetylene generator for making welding gas. But it's pretty badly corroded. My carbide came from the oil field. It used to be practice for mud loggers to put a few ounces of carbide in a Kleenex, and throw it into the drill pipe in the slips when the roughnecks were making the stab on a connection. Created a "bubble" of acetylene that could be seen on the gas detector or chromatograph as it came around. The "down" time for the mud through the drill pipe can be precisely calculated, since the drill string internal volumes are all known, and practically speaking, down time amounts to a small fraction of round trip time for the mud, and can often be disregarded. "Up" time for the mud can also be so calculated, assuming gauge hole. But wellbores can often wash out to vastly oversize in some formations, causing round trip circulation time to increase greatly. Since cuttings samples, and naturally-occurring gas events are depth-correlated by bottom-up circulation time, it's important to be able to check that. Hence, the carbide check, which was cheap, easy, and reliable. But carbide got deemed to be "hazardous goods" for us to transport, and that, combined with the ever-increasing use of oil-based mud, caused the mud-logging companies to abandon the use of it. So I wound up with the stock from 2 companies. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at February 26, 2020 12:25 AM (7vkOS) 493

Greetings:
Growing up, I had the twin Fanner Fifty cap gun rig. One day, Mother took my Big Sister and I too the movies and the second feature was "The Charge at Feather River" a 3-D oat-burner. So, after a substantial bit if whining and negotiating, I was allowed to take my guns to the movie but I had to submit to a body cavity search for any rolls of caps. Fortunately, my mother's technique had yet to fully develop. After the main feature concluded, I begged off to the men's room wherein I loaded those two beauties and then casually returned to my seat next to my mother. The cowboy movie was great, especially the climatic scene when the Indians (in those days) charged the cowboys. Well, with the 3-D and all the other excitement on the screen, no real buckaroo could sit back and not try to protect the two most important females in his still short life. I probably only got 10 or 15 rounds of before Mother regained control but I knew that there would be more control when we got home. So, later that evening she came into my room with that special gleam inner eye that was the precursor to "You Father's home and he wants to talk to you in the living room. I go to the living room and when Mother left, my Father began his in-terror-gation. "Mother tell me she took you to the movies this afternoon." "Yes." And you took your cap guns." "Yes." "And you took caps she told you not to take." "Yes." "And you shot off those caps during the movie." "Yes." "So, how many Indians did you shoot ???"

>>Left the restaurant a dude was smoking. Damn if it still didn't smell good Just a fresh light, though. Ashtrays, butts, clothes...those all smell nasty. Even when you are a smoker. Posted by: garrett at February 26, 2020 12:43 AM (2bnkh) it is a good reason to quit if you can or want to. I remember years ago one of those "improve yourself" speakers advised people to write down all the things they hated about their particular bad habit. It was a way to convince yourself to quit. I am not shaming anyone here or calling anyone out. We all go our own way. That is my motto of if CBS ever wants to know my true motto. But I always found cigarette smoking in particular to be gross. The smell on the clothes, the stamped out butt. And who would chose to kiss a girl who smoked even though they themselves smoked? But cigarettes were so much a part of our culture for so long that a lot of the stigma did not materialize in real life. There was also the cool factor and that so many used them. What always stood out to me was that dipping and chewing was always considered to be more disgusting, unless you were in a few particular locales in the south or west. I never got that as really the only issue with dipping was seeing that gross bottle and the spitting. My point is, if there is one, that it is interesting what particular cultures find offensive and what they accept as normal. I now see why dipping offends many. It is not when you do it, but when you see others, I can understand it. I still say smoking is worse since it covers your clothes and all. Neither are particularly good ideas of course but that is not what i am talking about. For sure smoking has historically been more accepted by a larger part of our society for many decades.

My father is in my bedroom sitting on the bed and playing guitar, and he's in his zone. My brother goes running into the room, and I try to stop him like noooooo, don't ask. My father is in there strumming away locked into his playing, and my brother asks daddy whats a twat.

America is not in a glass house, we own the house, and the entire neighborhood. Who is going to call us out? Cuba, Central America? They are too busy sending their people here for a chance at a real life. Their countries are so despondent that people will do anything to get out.
We killed people in Vietnam and the ME? Yeah, it is called war, look it up. How many Vietnamese live here now and would never return other than for a trip made safe by the present American order? Someone once mentioned that we even in war try to limit casualties, certainly civilian casualties. The countries you mention in the past were only limited by their ability to kill others. They never held back and would not even conceive such a thing as restraint.. The terrorists are only limited by their lack of ability, not their desire to cause destruction since they can't seem to improve lives in their own countries. I give the Vietnamese this much credit. They did not try to follow us to our homeland after we left. That does not excuse their extreme brutality over many decades but it does make them distinct from M.E. terrorists.

It has hundreds of Vietnamese shops and is a cultural center unlike many in the US. They proudly fly the South Vietnam Flag in the middle of it.

See: Little Mikey Bloomberg, originally from Boston and a High Boston Brahman wannabe. He has the rich and idiot parts covered. It's the Jewish part that the real High Boston Brahmans abhor and the reason he will forever be denied entry into their exclusive club. Posted by: RickZ at February 26, 2020 03:20 AM (Y8PSl) 612

I used to frequent a Usenet gaming group of mostly guys (but some women) that lasted for twenty years after the game ended.
The tag teaming of trolls was masterful to watch. This is a group that had been playing together in some cases since 1988 and was filled with techies. At one point we had a senior data security analyst for the NSA or DIA in the group and a Russian white hat hacker. The really nasty trolls quickly disappeared.

Trump was not -- and is not -- a politician. Therefore, thankfully, he saw no need to study the Republican politician playbook where 'losing with dignity' is the underwhelming theme, but wrote his own playbook, much to the Republicans' absolute horror.

In October of 1987, in the penthouse studio of Abbey Road Studios, I was privileged to hold in my hands, before it was released to the public, the first single George Harrison had released in six years. Granted, it was "I've Got My Mind Set On You": nevertheless, it was a unique experience.

Speaking of caps, when I was about 4, my neighbor and I loved to shoot caps. We'd do cap pistols, but the most fun was taking a hammer to the rolls while they were on the concrete floor of my parents' garage (great echo). Early one morning I was out their hammering away on those caps, and some asshole neighbor called the cops. A cop was talking to me about my shooting caps when my little neighbor friend showed up, all sleepy-eyed having just rolled out of bed. He asked my neighbor friend if he was there to shoot caps, too. "Yep." Cop had a laugh and left.
I remember being older and taking firecrackers and putting them inside ship and plane models I had built, blowing them up real good. Kids today have no idea what fun is, including staying out all day and drinking water from a hose instead of going inside to get a glass (now bottle) of water for fear Mom might shanghai me into cleaning up my room.

Someone was using trick or treat on Halloween as an example. He spoke about how kids would learn all types of lessons on that night. They would avoid the scary house with no lights on they would work together to go where the really good candies were handed out. They learned life lessons.
Today, they say they don't even do trick or treat. They go to a mall or to a parking lot and people give them candy from their car trunks. Why not just give them a bunch of candy and then do a session on the VR machine? I swear, I really feel badly for kids these days. I know my parents would not do this to me, they cared too much to make me a house cat. But damn, I would hate to grow up under this ethos. What a shocker they come to universities and shout down their own administrators. They scream in their faces and the administrators back down in shame. If they don't get them that week, they get taken down by the net. Posted by: Quint at February 26, 2020 04:33 AM (n13/j) 637

I only learned of bodegas from Bill Burr comedy reactions. To me going to a business is cheating but again, every neighborhood is different. I am not advocating for kids to run wild with no supervision. But there is a way parent's used to do it. They watched the little kids and gave the older kids more freedom. Even if we were not completely free, we felt that we were. There were always lessons on Halloween such as avoiding big kids, dark houses, etc. The parents inspected the candy though that was largely based on myth. But what i wonder about is how kids grow up these days and miss out on so many chances of freedom. The one think I will never have to say is my parents helicoptered me. oh they cared, they cared big time, but they knew treating a kid as a house cat for life would not help them in the end.

Posted by: Quint at February 26, 2020 04:51 AM (n13/j) There's a book somewhere in that comment. 'Don't Raise Your Child Like A House Cat'. A potential best-seller. The one problem is that there seems to be more child abductions today, with sex trafficking being a real menace. I don't know if that correlates to an increase in population or the abductions weren't reported as widely back then before 'Amber alerts'. But I can see that being a real fear for parents today, and with the internet, a predator can track and groom a kid from afar before striking. A parent catching a child predator today can't beat the shit out of them, either, or they go to jail. Posted by: RickZ at February 26, 2020 05:03 AM (Y8PSl) 647
I count among my blessings that mom and dad werent helicopter parents. It was not too hard letting my kids "be kids" i think a lot of that had to do with how I and Mr. Insanity were raised. Also that I was a stay at home mom I'm sure made some difference. Don't want to start any wars here, but I saw the result of that benefit when my kids were in school, and beyond.

A parent catching a child predator today can't beat the shit out of them, either, or they go to jail. Posted by: RickZ at February 26, 2020 05:03 AM (Y8PSl) I don't have an answer for that. I was talking Halloween and really creating more world wise kids. I don't know if child abductions are up. I simply do not have that information. I only know that we are creating kids and young adults who have been helicoptered. What do they do when they go to college? We are seeing what they are doing. I am with you Rick Z. The world today is darker and less friendly imo. What I don't know is if it is the chicken or the egg. What I don't know is if we are less kind so we should be more suspicious, or we are less kind because we are more suspicious. I know in my day we heard all kinds of horror stories. But to give up freedom was not possible. It was a different era. Things change. I recall when if your parents drove you to school, you were in deep shit. You missed the bus, were sick or something. Now they drive them to school and it causes a daily mash up. My fear is the answer to everything is "you can't do that these days". What bothers me is who exactly decided this. Are not all Trump voters the antidote to the idea "you can't do this these days?". I get protecting your kids. What I don't get is failing to prepare them for the real world. This reminds me of an academic debate about IRA's. The argument was it was true that you could be too risky and fail to reach your retirement goals. But the counter argument was that one could be too conservative and they also would fail to reach their retirement goals. For sure protect your kids. Talk to them, lead them. But if you don't allow them to experience the world and explore it a bit, you are doing them no favors. I understand this is complex and I don't have the answers. I only know I am so grateful for the childhood I had. I read about helicopter kids and and the net today and really feel sorry for them. It is great that people can adapt, They are likely better at that than am I. Posted by: Quint at February 26, 2020 05:19 AM (n13/j) 660

We acted as normals as they were our leaders back then. It is freaking shocking what has come of some many places. I am not talking hard core conservative locales, I am talking mainstream places. We go on about it but still if you look back it is breathtaking. I still can't believe what has come of this country. I still can't believe the ground we have given up.

Posted by: Bruce at February 26, 2020 06:11 AM (vd8XM) I remember a book series I read that had a sort of cult of people who wanted to kill off everyone else in the world, so they could be the only ones to enjoy the majesty of nature in an untrammeled or polluted Earth. This resonated more after that 'Life after People' TV show that was on History Channel a while back. In the book series, it did not work out too well for the people, as they were just useful pawns.

i think I told this story before but i never look back or check up on past posts from myself or anyone else.
I only show this to show how far our nation has gone awry. The thing that really gets me is when people say "you can't do that these days". I really hate that. It is true but it is a self fulfilling prophecy. If everyone says "you can't do that these days, then you can't do that these days" Statement made and reality is born. I grew up in a very moderate political locale. It was R at one point but we are talking Gerald Ford type Rs. It soon became left leaning but not this left. No one could have imagined this Left! So I was in a high school English class and the assignment was to write the most descriptive essay you could. The essay was graded on your ability to describe the scene in detail. That was the assignment. I chose to write about a CIA sniper taking out Daniel Ortega during the Sandinista regime. The point is I got an A. I was expressing myself during a particular time and the most likely liberal teacher game me an A. What would happen today? Would I have been sent for counseling? Would they have called my parents in? In that day that would havoe be unimaginable. But today, we would say it would be a smart move. Better safe than sorry. I dont' know if Daniel Ortega lives today or does not. Nor do I care. I was given an assignment and killed it. I got an A in a liberal locale. The only reason I mention this is there was a time when liberals and normals could interact as people. I pushed the boundaries I guess but we didn't have boundaries back then. I feel sorry for people today that have to hide all the time just to get along. Posted by: Quint at February 26, 2020 06:19 AM (n13/j) 689

I've been 29 a couple of times. Walked home from school on the sidewalk alongside a 4 lane road where inmates cleaned the median periodically. Scary to pass as they stared, and I was a kid alone, going home to an empty house.
But the awesome guards (with big ole rifles) were not oblivious or restrained to quiet whistles or shouts and got them back to work, heads down right away. By the time I had kids, that would not be the allowed. Posted by: OldDominionMom at February 26, 2020 06:37 AM (dH/BH) 704

Posted by: CrotchetyOldJarhead at February 26, 2020 06:49 AM (saIjW) I think what they believe is that capitalism is bad. Some people have more so therefore the system must be rigged. They also miss the fact that many thing they see as unfair in business is really the government interference in the market. I also think the the last 20 or so year of the fairness idea is finally coming home to roost. Fairness always starts off trying to make people by somehow leveling the playing field. When there is a winner it is called patriarchy, or misogyny, or racism as they claim with the level field all outcomes should be the same.

Change channel to clown show network Question about education. Warren starts talking about her new $10 trillion program because of the future, . Bernie starts flapping his arms and shouting about billionaires and racism. After less than 1 minute decided this a bad dream or I am in hell. Turn TV off .

Posted by: Ace's liver at February 26, 2020 06:49 AM (wGeit) i am not discounting that. I promise you i know that many righties came from California. it is the land of Nixon, Reagan, Bomber Bob Dornan et al. But if Texas needs Californian transplants to save the state from Beto, then isn't this whole thing just a delaying action? What Texas got wrong was immigration, the schools, out of control mega cities, and begging Californios to move in. People can say Texas will vote R and that will work right up until it doesn't. Like VA, the state has been moving left for years, that is a fact. A few states like TN, MO, KY and some others have been moving right. Texas has NOT been moving right. I wish it were different and if I have it wrong please set me straight. My issues with Texas is they have no control over their cities at all. Their state legislature is based in hippy zone. Dallas, Houston and for sure San Anantonio have gone far left, to the crazy Commiefornia hard left. I wish I had an answer because if we lose Tejas it is over. Maybe the gov should focus on schooling. I wish I had an answer. Sure Tejas is full of rocck ribbed conservatives. But guess what. So is Virginia, so is PA, and even MD. In the end it is a numbers game. Texas today does not give us the warm fuzzies it dies 20 years ago. Posted by: Quint at February 26, 2020 07:01 AM (n13/j) 728

Maybe so. It's pretty easy to be a slacker and complain about 'fairness', then propose socialism/communism as a remedy. I'd just add that those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it, and the failures of socialism/communism are a very painful lesson. Being the kinder, gentler Jarhead that I am, I propose that all who pine for that buffonery be sent to Venezuela at the earliest opportunity for an extended period to experience the their preferred system.

But they still want Bernie because they hate having to pay for health insurance out of their own pockets.
-- Oh, they'd pay for it alright. And pay and pay and pay and pay. Confiscatory. Young people are easy prey for Democrats because they don't make the connection that nothing is free, and they will pay dearly for that thing they think is going to be "free." Same with "free" college. Have fun paying college expenses for everyone else's kids for the rest of your life. Posted by: Lady in Black at February 26, 2020 07:36 AM (JoUsr) 766
I was shocked that while trying to attack Bloomberg, Warren trotted our her lie about being fired for being visibly pregnant. And I was even more shocked that no one called her on that blatant and totally debunked lie.
That was a big fat slow softball for Bloomberg who should have knocked it out of the park Who prepares these people?!?! Posted by: LASue at February 26, 2020 07:38 AM (Ed8Zd) Posted by: Mr. Peebles at February 26, 2020 07:38 AM (oVJmc) 768

Health insurance in general is broken, and Obama made it worse. Good luck telling them that though. Posted by: Ian S. at February 26, 2020 07:39 AM (6XLoz) 770

747 Also : There's a number of young people making money full-time through art commissions, YouTube, or Twitch streaming.
why does this remind me of when the Roman Empire devolved into the Dark Ages? Art commisions? I am not trying to be funny but there is some history here. i think most of the so called advancements like Whatsap, TickTock, and whatever are end game absurdities. No advancements were computers, space exploration, major drugs et al. i am sorry, Siri is not an scientific advancement. WE had the same thing, it was called typing on a keypad. Hey, if young people can exploit stupidity than they should go for it. Never let politics get in the way of business. i have have followed beyond meat since the day it went public. i owned it for a short time but could never hold on. The point is you have to be able to divorce yourself from what should be and from what is. I am not pushing Beyond Meat. I would not touch it with a ten foot pole. But even though I think the fake meat eaters are crazy, they still keep doing it. In the end you have to be comfortable what you invest in. Warren Buffett would never invest in tech until he became best buds with Bill Gates. It did not hurt that he was already a multi billionaire and considered the greatest investor in history. But now he is in on tech because, he likes Bill Gates. Posted by: Quint at February 26, 2020 07:46 AM (n13/j) 782

her lie about being fired for being visibly pregnant. And I was even more shocked that no one called her on that blatant and totally debunked lie. they can't challenge her. That is their whole thing. You deny she was ruined, you break the whole thing down. The thing I don't get is why that should make her president. Should not she be spending her time focusing on others who faced the same discrimination? Why don't they get to be president? She never said that she was fired, she was coy that way. Was she planning to teach the next semester? What is this really about? Did she want them to hold her over for a semester? Someone should ask but they wont. They only know a man did her wrong for some reason. But we can't know why or what. Posted by: Quint at February 26, 2020 07:54 AM (n13/j) 786

Posted by: rhennigantx at February 26, 2020 07:46 AM (JFO2v) More like a diseased bat - but still, I think more than ever that this is just another huge piece of hype, as bad as the Y2K farce. The MSM are so desperate for bad news that as soon as China had problems (which was mainly because the Chinese are filthy and overcrowded and eat weird filthy stuff), the MSM started shrieking "IT'S THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE!!! WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!! VOTE FOR BLOOMBERG!!!!" that's all. Posted by: Tom Servo at February 26, 2020 08:00 AM (V2Yro) 791
Unfortunately, I agree with The Federalist article about the possibility of a Sanders election. If a Sanders nomination sent the markets into a tailspin, which it almost inevitably would, that easily could grease the skids for his type to seize power if conditions were bad enough. The anger, mostly justifiable, that led Trump to victory has not disappeared. It only has diminished and the embers could be exploited by a Marxist.
It's always a bad idea to be overly confident, particularly when the danger is so great. If not this time, and the odds are still it won't be, eventually a Red will be president; the nation has been populated by tense of millions of Marx-friendly Third Worlders. At that point, everyone has to make up their mind how to react. It's hardly something to relish but something to expect. Posted by: Trump poisoned my cat at February 26, 2020 08:19 AM (puu6v) 792
