Some troops disappointed by check-the-block extremism stand-downs, others laud commanders Every unit in the military has until April 1 to sit down with its troops and talk about what extremism is and why it’s incompatible with military service, but that training has proven to look very different across formations. Some troops who responded to a Military Times call-out said their trainers made comments undermining the stand-down during the discussions, while others were disheartened by how short and non-interactive their stand-downs were. Others, though, said their commands went above and beyond, and they appreciated the effort. “The stand-down script seemed forced and leadership at times would make it a verbal point that ‘we have to do this,’ obviously not authentically interested in leading the discussions or covering the required topics,” a Naval Air Station Jacksonville, Florida, lieutenant told Military Times. “They also seemed reluctant to have in-depth discussions, brushing off questions, or just moving the conversation to the next topic. It was very surface-level, without significant substance.” Defense Department guidance for this one-day stand-down includes a few discussion points and a requirement to report its completion. Officials have said it’s open-ended to allow commanders to tailor it to their troops, but according to some, that has looked more like the bare minimum. Part of this was by design: Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin put out some rough guidance that included the oath of office/enlistment, case studies of extremism and some discussion questions and answers. The idea was for commanders to take the lead on how it would be implemented, with the ability to add to it, make it remote or otherwise adjust it according to each unit’s priorities. “For us here at the Pentagon, we’re far detached from that,” Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Chairman Ramon Colon-Lopez. “So we have to be able to trust those commanders in the field to be able to fix the behavior.” At Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North Carolina, according to an enlisted airman, the one-day training was cut down to 30 minutes because leadership deemed it too time-consuming. “Typically I don’t really complain but this seems to be the attitude towards every non-mission training,” he told Military Times, adding that a recent suicide training was also cut down to five minutes after an accompanying video failed to work. “Forced” was a common sentiment among troops who responded to Military Times’ call-out Truth or satire?

The government of Afghanistan is willing to share power with the the Taliban. “We responded to the proposals, but not in writing, we had a meeting of the High Council for National Reconciliation and there we decided that we are not against dividing powers. We shared our assessments on all these issues such as how to preserve Afghanistan’s constitution, strengthen institutions and prevent the system’s collapse,” Abdullah Abdullah, head of the Afghan government’s High Council for National Reconciliation, told Russia’s Tass news service in an interview Sunday. “As for the mere idea of dividing powers before holding the election, we told the Americans that we could discuss this with the Taliban,” Abdullah said. Afghan President Ashraf Ghani made a similar point last week, saying his vision of “power sharing” involved the Taliban running candidates in fair elections and abiding by the results, rather than forming a joint government with the jihadi extremists or retiring from his own office so a hybrid Taliban-Kabul interim government could take over. “If the Taliban are ready to participate in elections tomorrow, we are ready. But without elections, I am not ready to transfer the power to my successor,” Ghani said last Tuesday.If they want to live in their 7th century squalor and participate in tribal wars let them.

Liars gotta lie. Let's just see how long before the sun-setting Joe Biden tells us no more gas powered vehicles. We likely won't know the details surrounding President Joe Biden's plans on fuel economy and vehicle emissions regulations until this summer at the earliest, but both of California's senators want the president to get tough on the internal-combustion engine. Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Alex Padilla, both Democrats, have urged Biden to follow the state's lead and set a date to end the sale of cars powered by fossil fuels, Reuters reports. "We write to urge you to maintain states' authority to set vehicle emissions standards necessary to protect the health and welfare of their people … Importantly, California and other states need a strong federal partner," the senators said in a joint letter to the president Monday.

William Shatner will be having one hell of a party later this year. Star Trek's William Shatner is okay with not returning to his iconic role, but he'll celebrate his 90th birthday back on the bridge of the USS Enterprise. Shatner will partake in a two-day event at the Star Trek: The Original Series Set Tour site in Ticonderoga, New York. The exhibit is famed among fans for its replica of the bridge set where Shatner gave orders as Captain James T. Kirk in Star Trek: The Original Series. The two-day event begins on July 23rd (a belated celebration coming a few months after his actual birthday in March), with the COVID-19 mask and social distancing rules still in effect. The Star Trek: The Original Series: Set Tour website has additional information: "Join us to celebrate William Shatner's 90th birthday!!! On July 23, 2021 Mr. Shatner will be visiting the amazing Star Trek Tour set recreation. At this time all events still fall under Covid restrictions. Masks, smaller groups, and distancing will be strictly enforced." The limited $1500 all-inclusive packages will let fans participate in Shatner's 90th Birthday Dinner I don't hate them if they obey the damn rules of the road. Why do drivers hate cyclists? New York City has averaged more than 100 cyclist deaths a year for two years in a row. It’s a deeply disturbing trend, and it’s playing out across much of the country: fatal bike accidents have been on a steep incline since 2016. With more cyclists on the roads since the beginning of the pandemic (remember the nationwide “bike shortage” last spring?) and the length of legislative time it takes to put aside protected bike lanes (that’s to say, lanes with an actual physical barrier between bikers and vehicles), the problem will likely get worse before it gets better. What’s causing all of these accidents? There are logistical issues at play, of course. Roads are only so wide. But part of the issue is an ongoing psychological warfare between drivers and cyclists. A study released in 2017 by Portland State University, which surveyed 676 frequent drivers across the country, found that drivers are more worried about not inconveniencing cars behind them than the welfare of cyclists. These drivers are willing to make “unsafe passes” if it means keeping the flow of traffic moving. In 2019, meanwhile, research out of Australia exhibited that drivers don’t view cyclists as fully human. Progressive Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders suplexed tech billionaire Elon Musk in a Sunday tweet, excoriating the SpaceX CEO for pouring money into interplanetary space travel ambitions while inequality persists here on Earth. “Space travel is an exciting idea, but right now we need to focus on Earth and create a progressive tax system so that children don’t go hungry, people are not homeless and all Americans have healthcare,” Sanders said. “The level of inequality in America is obscene and a threat to our democracy.” The tiff — and its background, which we’ll get into below — are a crystal-clear illustration of a widespread tension in contemporary views of the future: whether we should wait until everyone is taken care of on our home planet before taking on the incredibly expensive task of sending people to other worlds, or whether it’s feasible to pursue both tasks simultaneously.So Bernie, how many hungry are shacking up in your 3 homes?

No wedding cake = Genius Award Winners. MARCH 21--Along with the drunken collegians rampaging across Florida this weekend, a couple in their forties allegedly engaged in an illicit spring break encounter that ended with their arrest for lewd behavior in public, records show. According to police, Grant Mulder, 48, and Lauren Baugh, 41, were spotted Saturday afternoon around 1:45 PM trysting in Largo Central Park in Largo, a city in the Tampa Bay area. The couple, cops say, were spotted near a veterans memorial inside the 70-acre park (seen below). As detailed in one arrest affidavit, a Largo Police Department officer witnessed Baugh “lying on her back with her legs spread apart and her vulva exposed as her boyfriend and co-defendant performed cunnilingus on her.” For those unfamiliar with the term, Officer Lawrence Trinka noted in a second affidavit that cunnilingus was “better known as the union of the mouth with the vulva.” Mulder and Baugh, the patrolman reported, were visible to park patrons as well as pedestrians and motorists passing by on a “highly trafficked roadway” adjacent to the park. The affidavits state that there was an “indication of alcohol influence” with regard to both defendants. Collette Divitto is truly an inspiration and Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.

I don't think the problem is that drivers don't see cyclists as "fully human", I think it's that they don't subconsciously recognize them as a threat. There are similar studies that seem to indicate that drivers who "don't see" a motorcycle while they're changing lanes or turning across traffic actually don't - the part of our brains that is still living in trees and shrieking in terror because of cheetahs filters out things that it doesn't categorize as immediate concerns (things that can kill you right away) before passing the scene onto your conscious, decision-making parts.

38 Blaster,
I think I know the general area that you are considering then. IF it is where I think it is, some of the area to the South has an extensive Federal Wildlife Management area that have VERY strict groundwater pollution standards due to aquaculture in the area and protected species. So be sure to do your homework on septic systems, aquifer contamination, etc. Posted by: whig at March 22, 2021 10:19 PM (pO7gM) 74
This whole "being the me" stuff is an extension of the supposedly low self-esteem conquering "believe in yourself" movement.
Now we have a generation-plus of people who "believe in themselves" for absolutely no fucking reason at all. This leaves a vacuum because their self has no actual meaning. Additionally they still sense their own inferiority, but their consciousness turns it into a superiority complex (see Obama, Michelle for a good example of this phenomenon). And of course everything else they supposedly believe in is just another extension of their stupid self. Posted by: ... at March 22, 2021 10:19 PM (uEbPt) 75
Also, a point that I wanted to make in the previous thread about survivalism before I was rudely interrupted by a most top-heavy champagne flute and the associated cleanup.
Having guns and whatnot is all good and well, but do consider that when the fall of man comes about the Mad Max period will likely only last a couple of weeks, at which point most of the hotheads and mongrels will be dead at the hands of organized militias and those militias will set about turning themselves into regional authorities and all that comes with it. Do you have something that they would find useful? A trade skill, or perhaps a reliable source of electricity? As Al Capone's maker cousin might say, you'll go farther with a gun and a lathe than just a gun. Also, if word gets out that there's some rando living by himself with like 100 guns he may find himself the unwilling armorer of one of the said militias. Food for thought, yeah? And read up on cases like Somalia because there's nothing new under the sun. Posted by: CppThis at March 22, 2021 10:19 PM (zcf1k) 76

How much?
Posted by: Infidel at March 22, 2021 09:45 PM (E0OEG) Yeah so that's the question, innit? Container homes can be cheap to ridiculous. They are NOT really cheaper than a stick built home of similar square footage. And the land is raw. Needs a road. And power to the lot. And a well for each lot. And septic for each lot. This starts to add up just for the land. And then there is the off-grid power stuff. Again, you can do reasonable, you can do stupid expensive. I am thinking a turnkey 5 acre plot with a double 40 ft container home on it and a solar/wind combo (and a 20ft container power shack/workshop) would be something like $200k. That is a VERY ROUGH SWAG. Posted by: blaster at March 22, 2021 10:19 PM (ZfRYq) 82

Personally, I like the area and have been there several times but given my extended family is in the hills, will probably return to somewhere like that when things appear to be getting pear shaped.

I think the trans movement is tailor made to give way to an all-freak movement - basically for a time, once the trans fire dies down and they have squeezed every drop out of it, the media will start reporting on anyone and everyone with a strange proclivity. Whether it's a guy that fucks his couch, or a woman who wants to live her life as a dog, to people who cut themselves and each other, to the various -rouples and other assorted kinks... and they will being to quietly sneak in the "age is just a number" crew.

Bike lanes on roads are so stupid. Ask any cyclist who's ever done it in a college town, they'll all tell you that physically divided bike trails and/or on sidewalks is fine but you're safer stumbling across across a major freeway on foot, at night, while drunk than you are on a bike sharing the road with idiot drivers who may or may not even now which side of the road they're supposed to drive on.

Forgot a face diaper on the front of the car.
BTW: Toyota says that there's no way we can shift to electric cars as rapidly as the pols have designated. This isn't a matter of working harder to find the answers to tech questions which can be spurred by these sort of deadlines. For there to be electric cars to the degree they want, we would have to build (and pay for before they become profitable) charging stations, battery replacement and battery repair, also electric energy must be increased at the same time they're cutting coal plants and causing (sometimes demanding) that green energy take up the missing amount but that's impossible because green energy (so far) is not reliable nor is there enough of it. It's not a demand technology. This is Toyota mind who is the leading manufacture of vehicles in the world today. GM is a pimple in comparison. Sad to see but then they brought it on themselves.

I always like to ponder how much damage cyclists are doing to the road while they're saving the planet.
I'm assuming roads are weight-rated, and they'll last a lot longer if a 3500lb car is passing over a square foot at the normal 55mph rather than staying on that same square foot for much longer at 10mph (or 2mph if you're going up a hill). Add the three to fifteen cars that get stuck behind one single bicyclist and you're talking a BUNCH of additional weight forced onto each square foot while they wait to resume normal operating speeds the road is rated for. And that's not counting semi trucks or other heavier vehicles. (thumbs up icon here) Way to go, cyclists. Way to save resources.

One big cause of bicyclist deaths is their attitude that stop signs and traffic signals don't apply to them.
I wonder if there is data on this. Overtaken (too slow, didn't see, wiped out) versus t-boned (went thru red light) I think the biggest cause is the difference in speed and acceleration and their visible cross-section. I have no problem when they ignore stop signs and signals when that doesn't produce a conflict. In the car I am now in the habit of ignoring completely pointless left turn on red signals. (Stop, and if no oncoming traffic (roughly double the gap in oncoming traffic) I turn. Posted by: Chuck C at March 22, 2021 10:58 PM (awtm/) 262

Bike lanes on roads are so stupid. Ask any cyclist who's ever done it in a college town, they'll all tell you that physically divided bike trails and/or on sidewalks is fine but you're safer stumbling across across a major freeway on foot, at night, while drunk than you are on a bike sharing the road with idiot drivers who may or may not even now which side of the road they're supposed to drive on.
Posted by: CppThis at March 22, 2021 10:48 PM (zcf1k) I used to commute on a bike with a GoPro on the handlebars and "in case of emergency, forward recording to ONT Genius Awards c/o AoSHQ" taped to it. The campus had just dropped a bunch of money on separating the cycle paths from the streets AND setting them apart from the sidewalks, going so far as to pave them with asphalt and paint big "no pedestrian" signs on them. It doesn't matter. My favorite is the last screenshot before I gave up; basically every pedestrian is walking on the bike path and none are on the sidewalk.

Posted by: Chuck C at March 22, 2021 10:58 PM (awtm/) This is true. There's very little difference between a person just walking down the middle of the road and a person on a bicycle going down the road. The delta velocity is of the same magnitude. The delta mass is of the same magnitude. Therefore the delta inertia is very similar. The difference in the amount of protection between the two bodies is nearly the same. A walker actually has more degrees of freedom and can change directions much quicker to avoid a car than a bicycle can. We would never allow people to just walk in the road along with cars but we do with bicycles. Posted by: banana Dream at March 22, 2021 11:07 PM (QVkJn) 289

Groundwater patterns can be pretty unpredictable in some areas and neighbors may be using shallow wells for drinking water
UV filter technology has come a long way. In rural areas animals, especially domestic, are the primary source of e coli. Have two cricks on my property.

The only real problem with that is that they go through wooded areas which are now the homes of addicts who steal camping equipment, "live" along the bike trail, get drunk and drugged, shit in the creeks and harass kids on bikes. Fucking leftists in the assembly have only made it worse. We vote for a new mayor and to recall one assemblyman asshat in April. Things may be looking up for bikes and kids.

As for the Handler quote...
Collective punishment is forbidden under every system of law worthy of respect, up to and including the Geneva Conevntions. Collective guilt does not exist. Guilt does not have a magical transitive property that gives us a share of the crimes of others. Guilt can only ever be individual. Punishment can only ever be individual. The guilty parties are dead. Punishing innocent living people, for the transgressions of the dead, to make restitution to people who are not themselves victims in any rational way, is absurd and monstrous. This nonsense needs to be rebuked, loudly and constantly. Not only no, but go fuck yourself with a cactus, Chelsea Handler.

This is true. There's very little difference between a person just walking down the middle of the road and a person on a bicycle going down the road. The delta velocity is of the same magnitude. The delta mass is of the same magnitude. Therefore the delta inertia is very similar. The difference in the amount of protection between the two bodies is nearly the same. A walker actually has more degrees of freedom and can change directions much quicker to avoid a car than a bicycle can.

San Franpsycho, to answer your question, the ridiculously unfit prez and VP are merely the top of the rotten pile. The unserious, and actually not very practically intelligent, "team" (Blinken, Sullivan, surely most of their C- Beltway lightweight staff, and it appears the rather lightweight SecDef) will do the day-to-day damage.
The Clinton years were terrible - and that was merely the dregs of post-Vietnam Dem foreign policy types, with some true lightweight Capitol Hill staff tossed in (because of the shortage of even the former type). Obama era was much worse, of course at the top, but hilariously unfit idiots like Rhodes - or Clinton at State - and sad little third-tier staffers like Ash Carter as SecDef. Now? Essentially the same deal as Obama years. Same idiotic "ideas" (making Iran the "partner" in the ME?? WTF??), lots of the same non-entities as personnel.

LCD actually I think the predominant current is the Japan Current, which arcs through the north Pacific and brings the cold water south - that's why west coast North America has no warm water. When southern currents push north (which I think mean Japan Current passes south further to the west in the ocean, actually), that's when we get our rare "warm" ocean conditions, and you have dorado being caught off Eureka and lots of marlin as far north as the Channel Islands.

Boulder: gun type? legally owned? shooter's nutcase condition previously known?
Only asking because generally the nuts are known about well in advance, "law enforcement"* has had them on their radar for a long time, and if they legally own the gun, it's because the system has utterly failed due to politix or incompetence (Tucson, TX church, Parkland High School). That is, layers and layers of "gun control" have yielded zero benefit. * this now must be routinely amended to note that only some laws are enforced, and some not, including situations where there is immediate direct deadly harm to the public, as with cities/states not cooperating with ICE on dangerous illegal alien criminals Posted by: rhomboid at March 23, 2021 12:04 AM (OTzUX) 409

No, ".....", there actually are things in the world beyond self-dealing and corruption, though at this blog this appears to be a deep secret. There actually are, and have been, forever, people and groups of people with idiotic ideas that are dangerous. Sometimes they get a chance to implement them. The Obama policy on Iran was very much a sincerely believed and unbelievably stupid on which ignored all realities and interests.
They really think the JCPOA was working and could work. There's been a non-stop and stupefyingly idiotic "debate" going on since Trump got in about it from these people, often engaged (far too politely, which is a real problem now) by more serious people.

Caesar, I generally don't think that's true, and I'm certain it's not true in the case of Iran.
The "maximum pressure policy" was working, had a decent chance of "maximum" success (regime collapse) if continued. Which it won't be, now. This is incompetence directly resulting in damage, and irretrievable. Just as with incompetence/deliberate sabotage in other areas, such as mass illegal migration. It is silly to pretend that any meaningful number of the fake asylum cases and UACs and or outright fence-jumpers now being facilitated into the US will *ever* be liable to deportation, or even that their cases will be adjudicated. They're in, period. Same for the, likely, 100s of thousands yet to come the next 4 years. The metaphor of the ratchet is not an idle on many, many important matters here.

Posted by: rhomboid at March 23, 2021 01:08 AM (OTzUX) -------------- Hey don't blame the rest of the blog for what I think. IMO, Iran was/is ally of the Bambi administration and any and all dealings with them were a means toward that end. They believe in "peace" and the "ideals" they profess like I believe in the Tooth Fairy. At best the jet pallets of cash was money laundering back into their own hands, with a hefty cut included for Iran. BTW, I don't base my opinion on the pallets of cash - my opinion would have *and did* predict the pallets of cash. People who want to implement idiotic ideas generally end up in middle management.

Collective guilt does not exist. Guilt does not have a magical transitive property that gives us a share of the crimes of others. Guilt can only ever be individual. Punishment can only ever be individual.
------ I agree with this stmt; however, the gvt schools and other social institutions have been pushing collective guilt over personal responsibility for a long time. There is institutional racism, but not in the sense that it is used. Gvt institutions have been pushing division in many ways for a long time.

530 Collective guilt does not exist. Guilt does not have a magical transitive property that gives us a share of the crimes of others. Guilt can only ever be individual. Punishment can only ever be individual.
------ I agree with this stmt; however, the gvt schools and other social institutions have been pushing collective guilt over personal responsibility for a long time. There is institutional racism, but not in the sense that it is used. Gvt institutions have been pushing division in many ways for a long time.

Pug, lost Dad from heart attack in '11.
Mom moved back to earshot of her 4 sons, now with families. Lost Mom in Nov '19, a slow physical bunch of issues, but she was mentally sharp to the end. You're situation is even more difficult and I pray for your peace. When the hospital called and said Mom is fading, all 4 of her boys dropped what they were doing, 2 of the 3 remaining wives did too, as well as 4 of her 6 grandchildren. She was out of it, but I could tell she knew we were all there, when I got there and said "hi Mom, it's LeftCoast", I held her hand and she squeezed it. For about 3 hours we sat in her room. The talking between us kept increasing as people arrived. I sat next to her. I engaged in the many conversations and then a while later looked at Mom. She had passed. I to this day think that is exactly what she asked for and God made happen. Mom always had this special inside thing with God. God never failed her.

Dad liked being the center of attention but didn't want anyone to be "waiting around & wringing their hands" if he became incapacitated.
We got the call that he had only little time left; spent an hour or two until the nurses had to turn and clean him up... so we stepped out for supper. He passed while we were away. I think he wanted it that way, or at least I hope so. Sometimes feel guilty that I wasn't there when he passed. Posted by: JQ at March 23, 2021 02:56 AM (09wCi) 557

I went through a time thinking that ultimately death is something that is done alone so what does it matter if someone else is there.

As I was talking earlier today, it's not just the Fed. Just reading, the ECB had to step its own bond "buying" (monetizing Euro govt. debt) to keep their own yields from rising. Real yields on govt. debt have been negative. Ts have been pulling negative for about a year. Only the 30 yr is slightly positive real yield. The market is trying to make yields go up. As the ECB action demonstrates, central banks the world over cannot let yield rise, or they destroy their governments. The Fed will do the same here, if they admit it or not.

Moar casual observations from yesterday -- I went to a bank lobby. While it was still posted, I noticed maybe 20% of the customers were sans masks. Not surprised.
I engaged the security guard in a bit of conversation. I told him that the "6 foot rule" was Bull,and there was no scientific evidence to support such an edict. While obeying it. I also mentioned that the CDC was admitting that fact, and that local school districts had reduced the distance to 3 feet for students. I told him to "look it up". Facts are a stubborn thing, I said. He asked if I served in the Vietnam War. I said no, and I didn't see that relevance to my comments. Hearts and Minds, people, with an emphasis on minds. This will be over sooner than you think.

Posted by: Nevergiveup Well, his minions. Rice, Jarrett, etc. I still maintain Obama is just an Etch 'n' Sketch. He's whatever he needs to be for the Globalists. Posted by: Puddleglum at March 23, 2021 07:35 AM (J+YMi) 728
Horde mind...

Obama has neither the intellect, nor the work ethic to do much more than be a figurehead.
And he is perfectly happy with playing that role. Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice at March 23, 2021 07:37 AM (3D/fK) 730

Posted by: Puddleglum at March 23, 2021 07:35 AM (J+YMi) You just described 100% of Dems. Would sell your daughters hair to the globalist to make the ropes to hang you! Posted by: rhennigantx at March 23, 2021 07:37 AM (yrol0) 731

"Only time Barry is the smartest guy in the room is when he's alone with Mooch."
Rumors would suggest otherwise. Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice at March 23, 2021 07:39 AM (3D/fK) 733
Yeah. Never ever give Obama the credit. He is not smart or ambitious enough to be behind anything. He may believe in it but he's just a script reader.

"... alone with Mooch." You sure about that?

Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice Pretty quick VIA. Isn't it about time you talk to the bosses about being promoted to journeyman status? Posted by: Sock Monkey * grammar not included, some edjercation required at March 23, 2021 07:42 AM (LUK5V) 738
"Isn't it about time you talk to the bosses about being promoted to journeyman status?"
I'm beginning to think that it's a lifetime appointment. Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice at March 23, 2021 07:43 AM (3D/fK) 739
Guess we are going straight to the next painting in our O'Keefe series.

I am pretty sure there might be village somewhere in need of a idiot and be willing to give you a promotion.
But you might have to relocate. Posted by: JAS, AoSHQ addict at March 23, 2021 07:45 AM (2BZBZ) Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice at March 23, 2021 07:46 AM (3D/fK) 742

265 I used to commute on a bike with a GoPro on the handlebars and "in case of emergency, forward recording to ONT Genius Awards c/o AoSHQ" taped to it. The campus had just dropped a bunch of money on separating the cycle paths from the streets AND setting them apart from the sidewalks, going so far as to pave them with asphalt and paint big "no pedestrian" signs on them.
It doesn't matter. My favorite is the last screenshot before I gave up; basically every pedestrian is walking on the bike path and none are on the sidewalk. My conclusion is that everyone is terrible at everything, except for me. https://stoatnet.org/whatiswrongwithyou/ Posted by: hogmartin at March 22, 2021 11:00 PM (t+qrx) That is CRAZY stuff.
