The Morning Rant

PANIC PORN

Get a load of this drama queen:


meme 20211013 00.jpg

The article linked to in this guy's tweet is a hot mess of stoopid.

Perhaps some of you more well-informed morons know about flying a black flag, but I had not. Fortunately, the stoopid article has an explainer:

According to the people on Tik Tok and the Sun (British tabloid), the black American flag originated in the civil war and was flown by the Confederates.

It means that they will not surrender, will not take prisoners, and are willing to die for their cause. It means they will execute their enemies.

Ouch! The logical leaps in this paragraph are so abrupt, I think I need to sue the author for whiplash. Because I think there's a big difference between refusing to surrender and systematic, commie-style, line-em-up-against-the-wall-and-shoot-em executions, and the article doesn't explain how the latter follows from the former.

So I'm trying to fill in the gaping holes here and I can come up two possibilities:

(a) Any resistance to the implementation of the progressive agenda is the equivalent of mass murder

-or-

(b) Simple projection. They're just assuming that conservatives are threatening to do what they would do

-or-

(c) the guy is just mentally ill, so he's just spouting nonsense. Most progressives are mentally ill, so I think I'm on solid ground here.

And if you think (c) is an overreach, I saw a video clip of a bunch of rowdy guys trying to start up a "f* Joe Biden!" at a football game and some Karen starts throwing a hissy fit. So they just laugh at her and chant even louder, which makes her scream "Stop doing that, that's racist!" Yes, that's right, she said racist. A bunch of white guys are jeering at another white guy, and that's racist. I know that progressives' use of the word 'racist' can be extremely flexible, but c'mon man, that just doesn't make any sense.

(I think what happened is that Biden-voter Karen is really annoyed that the "f* Joe Biden!" chant has become a big fad and reached into her grab-bag of slurs for the meanest word she could find, and she most likely thought that one slur is just as good as another.)

But getting back to the guy who's peeing his pants over a black flag, he goes on and on about what the flag means and how he feels about it, but one thing that he doesn't talk about ever doing, is paying a visit to his neighbor and actually asking him about it. No, he's got it all worked out in his own mind what it means and what his neighbor thinks of him. He's literally putting words in his neighbor's mouth. It could be that the neighbor isn't thinking about him at all. Maybe he thinks the flag means something different. You don't know!

And then, in a subsequent tweet, he says:

It's not sane. Who broadcasts the message, "I'm going to have to kill everybody - obviously neighbors included - whose political views I disagree with" ?

That's a very good point. If something seems weird or nonsensical to you, one of the possibilities you need to consider is that maybe it's because you don't fully understand what's going on. Like a tricky math problem, or a woman who says she likes men who are nice and funny and who treat her with respect but always seem to be hooking up with criminals and outlaw bikers. I mean, those are hard to figure out! But what I find weird is that the guy is evidently more comfortable believing that his next-door neighbor is a bloodthirsty murderer and who is publicly bragging about it, then to consider that maybe he hasn't read the situation correctly.

Finally, if he really thinks his neighbor wanted to kill him, maybe he should consider moving to a safer neighborhood, one that is very far away from that insanely murderous flag-waver. Just a thought.

AoSHQ Weekly Prayer List

Please submit any prayer requests to “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo atsign hotmail dot com.


Prayer Requests:

9/2 – Ozborn requests prayer for his son, toddler A., who is battling RSV.
9/15 Update – Ozborn gives thanks that his son, A., is recovered from RSV, and that no one else in the house caught a bad case.

9/7 – Notsothoreau asks for prayers for her co-worker and his family. His grandmother is dying. May she pass calmly and the family be comforted for their loss.

9/18 – Homer’s Donuts needs prayers for hope, healing, health, support, and strength as his wife has chosen to divorce him. They have a young son. Clinical depression and panic attacks, a constant in his life, are hitting him hard. He says he has such low energy that Jeb Bush looks down on him. The divorce is making things worse, and he feels completely obsolete and alone, without anyone on his side.

9/20 – Ozborn asks for prayers for JC_from_Texas. He’s recently developed Postural Tachycardia (some family history, recent physical stress event). Pray for wisdom in treatment, and that he can rebuild strength and stamina to resume normal activities.

10/4 – Annie’s Stew requests prayers of comfort and support for a sweet young family she knows. We’d prayed for the dad a few months ago, as he was being treated for brain cancer. He just passed away from the WuFlu, at age 30. They have a daughter who is only 6 months old.

10/5 – snotnosed nuclear sonic punk asks for prayers for her mother, her father, herself, and her husband. Her 78 year-old mother had an episode of garbled and slurred speech which led to no speech. She broke her left ankle, but didn’t/couldn’t relay the injury. Now she can’t understand why they won’t let her out of the hospital, and she is confused and combative. Her father needs prayers, also, as he is scared and frustrated and showing it as anger. He needs patience for his fears to be quelled. She needs prayers for comfort in the Lord, strength, and clear headedness. Her husband needs prayers for strength and comfort, as he does everything he can to make things easier for all of them.

10/9 – Tonypete asks for prayers for his two granddaughters, especially the 14-year-old. Their mother is a raging alcoholic, and the kids are suffering greatly with the usual things: acting out, eating disorders, troubles in the classroom, fighting at school, way inappropriate behavior and dress and big trouble at home. Prayers also for Mom – that she accept the help offerenad get it together.

10/9 – Prayers for comfort for the family of paisley1333, at the death of her mother. She was battling heart disease, dementia, and Alzheimer’s when she got Covid and passed away.

For Healing:

8/22 – Hrothgar asks for prayers for Emma, a 16-year-old girl who apparently had a stroke. Her condition is still being evaluated, and she has been medevaced to the Children’s Hospital in Baltimore.
9/5 Update – The Children’s Hospital has determined the primary issue she was a very unusual congenital birth defect which had never before evidenced itself, as she appeared to be a healthy, active teenager. The medical team is convinced that she will be able to recover fully, but has a tough year ahead with several critical surgeries and extensive rehab. The important thing is that she will have years ahead to love and be loved by her family. So please continue to pray for Emma and her full recovery, plus prayers for her family and the skill of her surgical and rehab teams.

9/16 – Warrant242 requests prayers for his 11-year-old son, who has brain and spinal cord tumors that appear to be growing again, after 3 stable years. More treatment may be needed, and the treatment options are uncertain. Prayer for wisdom and insight, for the doctors and for them, would be truly appreciated.
9/22 Update – At the board review, his son’s doctors were unanimous in their opinion that the tumors were still stable, not growing, and no treatment was needed.

9/22 – NicenePunch asks for prayers for his wife and unborn baby. They just found out this week that she is pregnancy, but her progesterone levels are lower than they ought to be. They had a miscarriage in June, and so are requesting prayers for a safe, healthy pregnancy and delivery.

9/22 - CA Token requests prayers for his cousin, who was just diagnosed with brain cancer. He has a beautiful family with three young daughters. If everyone could pray for comfort and healing for his cousin, and comfort for his devastated family.

9/22 – garrett posted that his father was rushed to the hospital for a possible stroke. Please pray for healing for him.

10/5 – redc1c4 sends in a prayer request for his wife’s co-worker, whose son James (her only son) had a bad spill riding motocross. He was air evaced to Loma Linda, about 120 miles away, where he is currently in the pediatric ICU. It’s so far, so good, but a long row to hoe from here. Prayers for swift and complete healing of his injuries for James, wisdom and insight for his caregivers at Loma Linda Hospital, and strength, faith, and courage for his mother Deborah would be appreciated.

10/6 – Java Joe’s 19 year-old grandson was injured in an accident at college. He suffered a serious concussion, facial lacerations, a bi-lateral fracture of his jaw and 10 broken teeth. He is currently at the U of M hospital, scheduled for surgery. We are requesting prayer for recovery and no long-term effects.

10/7 – Pete in Texas asks for prayers for his mother, age 89, who got the J&J Covid shot. Her health rapidly deteriorated over the next week until she had a heart attack. For the next month she was unconscious. She is still in the hospital (where he will see her shortly) and she is still in a bed and can’t speak. Last week, his sister’s family got Covid. His brother-in-law went to the hospital on 10/6, so prayers are requested for him. The rest of the family are almost fully recovered.

For submission guidelines and other relevant info, please contact Annie's Stew, who is managing the prayer list. You can contact her at apaslo at-sign hotmail dot com.

Romans 8:26-27:
[26] In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. [27] And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.

If you see a prayer request posted in a thread comment, feel free to copy and paste it and e-mail it to Annie's Stew. She tries to keep up with the requests in the threads, but she's not here all of the time, so she may not see it unless you e-mail it to her.

Please note: Prayer requests are generally removed after five weeks or so unless we receive an update.

35 I know it's Tom Hanks, but for those of you who've never seen it, his series From the Earth To the Moon is well worth a watch. It's mainly about the Apollo program, but it isn't a documentary. I happen to like it.

However, excluding volatile food and energy prices, the CPI increased 0.2% on the month and 4% year over year, against respective estimates for 0.3% and 4%.

Finally, if he really thinks his neighbor wanted to kill him, maybe he should consider moving to a safer neighborhood, one that is very far away from that insanely murderous flag-waver. Just a thought.

++++
He doesn't really believe it. If he did, he wouldn't have penned a semi-literate article about it. He doesn't believe it for even one second. He's vice-signalling about his own purity in believing that dissidents should be silenced, imprisoned or murdered.

Just like collectivists of all stripes always do.

Stuck at a friend's for 4 months on a 1 month permission and burned a friendship. 4+ years at another friend's house. Landlord with drinking issues. No 240V so the air conditioning didn't work at all and the heater couldn't keep up without blowing fuses, and no access to black water support. Now living in an apartment with working plumbing and heat and housemates without mental problems or resentment about property hogging. The extended family all breathed a big sigh of relief and prayers of thankfulness.

======
You know, the day a U.K. newspaper gets facts of piracy wrong... Let's get it straight, the pirates' black flag meant no quarter if there was resistance. It was a threat to make merchant ships (usually under-crewed anyways) to give up and let the looting proceed without a messy fight. The white decorations on the black flag were to indicate which pirate captain was hijacking you, so you could boost his rep by telling it to the London Times. The solid red banner was the indicator that absolutely no prisoners would be taken. General y El Presidente Santa Ana had the red banner displayed to the defenders of the Alamo, along with "El Dugello" (a tune of similar theme) played as well.

I think, if the attacking army had to take your town, the town got looted sacked, etc. If you surrender, you paid up and they went away. Nobody needed to fly a flag to know they well fcuked if the opp for took the town and you didn't surrender. The deal was you didn't sack if they surrendered. Which a couple of times sacks happened after surrender, which then made people, wait for it, fight to the death.

157 As a side note the Oriflamme du Saint-Denys was a straight red banner, with some extra decorative bits added on to it. It was the "total war" banner of Medieval France, kept at the Monastery of Saint Dennis near Paris. When carried and unfurled before the foe it was a declaration that usual customs of chivalry weren't going to be honored. No ransoms, no mercy, only death. The banner was captured by the Flemings after Coutrai in 1304, but a replacement was quickly made up, and subsequently carried against the English at Crecy, where it was found to have lost its lustre and power.

Believe it or don't, but that film is on YooToob for free. I watched it last month. And it's in Technicolor -- not colorized, but shot in color in 1937. People who think Gone With the Wind and Wizard of Oz were the first color movies need to do some reading.

Plus the film is funny and charming. Not quite as good to me as My Man Godfrey with Carole and William Powell, but darn good.

The story goes that when they were casting Godfrey, Powell insisted on Carole. Even though they'd been divorced for a few years, he insisted she was the only one for the role. (That guy got around!)

I believe the Albigensian crusade in southern France against the Cathars.
========
Correct. The phrase is a corruption of a statement made by Pope Innocent III (total misnomer) who issued the crusade against the Cathar heretics of Occitanian France. It was noted in reports that faithful and heretic parishes in Languedoc were intermixed, with no ready demarcation. Innocent III said, "Kill them all, the Lord will know His own." The Crusaders were the harvesters, the Lord would sort the wheat from the chaff as per Scripture, and so on. By the standards of feudalism he was legally in the right, since the Occitanian counts were in league in resisting the Crusade, so they and all their followers were guilty of heresy and/or aiding and abetting heresy, regardless of their parish address. Whether that was just or even moral is somewhat dubious.

The black flag generally came out after the attacker gave the defender an opportunity to surrender. In other words, they got pi$$ed off they had to fight a battle instead of walking into the City (or capturing a ship) without a fight.

Our friends in the Demo-Fascist party have made any sort of return to what we think of as "traditional" or "normal" virtually impossible; there is no way that they will accept anything less than total control. Notice that suddenly Pelosi is floating the idea that control of the Debt Ceiling should be handed over to Janet Yellin as the sole decision maker? That's going to work out well. Not sure how this is all going to shake out, but it will not be good.

Politician: "Let's not be divisive here."
Leftist: "Look at this one crazy loon who spouts crazy things, you actually want to let that guy live?"
Politician: "He does look crazy, okay, you can kill that guy."
Leftist: "Why? We'll use him to paint 50% of America just as crazy as him, and we'll keep him alive so we can promote the next round of killings."
Politician: "Just as long as you're not divisive about it."

They truly don't understand it when certain people say "enough" and even threaten to push back in the slightest with anything other than political force. To them, this is all a game that they enjoy winning. The "losers" should just comply. After all - they lost.

There are brief primitive Technicolor sequences in some famous silents, as well, like Ben Hur, The Phantom of the Opera and King of Kings. Real strip color- not just shooting with a filter. It's fun to watch the development of the technology.

A delightful early color film from England is The Divorce of Lady X, with Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon. I always catch it if it's TCM.

When flown over a house continuously, in parts of Eastern Europe it is a sign of mourning, usually a death in the family. Perhaps the neighbor is mourning the death of the Republic.

I kind of love how they're trying to find dirt on Daniel Snyder because they've finally realized that he's punking them with the whole "Washington Football Team" thing, but it keeps blowing up other people. Thus far Gruden and reporter Adam Schefter, who was emailing the subjects of his stories to give them approval.

FxCK Biden will come out with a mumble saying that he thinks the mandates are a bit of an overreach, and maybe we have to have voluntary blah blah blah.

353 See Also: The Pacific War, specifically Iwo Jima and Okinawa. That was a slightly different scenario (it was their side insisting that surrender meant death regardless, not ours) but the behavior is the same.

Both were slaughterhouses, but Okinawa saw a significant increase in the percentage of Japs who surrendered. I'm not sure why, but perhaps word filtered back that surrender didn't mean death and/or cannibalism, as some of them believed. Maybe they just got sick of the whole "we gladly die for the emperor" thing. Maybe the ones who were still alive were willing to take the hit to their honor so as to live.

368 Someone sent me a video on Rumble where a guy laid out the ownership graph of world industry and media. Basic contention of the video was that all the edges ultimately point to Vanguard and Blackrock (mainly) and that the owners and owned meet yearly at something called the Wold Economic Forum in davos who leaders talk about and write about something called a great reset.

I think all that is factual but what you make of that all is where you gain entry into the tinfoil hat club.

Well that's how I would have phrased but few months back.

But seeing psaki admit outright that the regime is aiming at remaking much of the US Economy, with the willful destruction of our national border, the neutering of US foreign power projection, turning that power instead inward towards dissenters as 'domestic terrorists' I am afraid I can no longer dismiss the great reset new world order shit.

Someone is driving the regime, someone is writing the 3.5 trillion USA makeover plan and that someone is unknown and unknowable.

The climate change shit and its remedies is hoax and everything being done in its name has a different motive.

Most of the surrenders took place towards the end, I think, some facilitated by truly heroic Nisei American soldiers who negotiated directly.

That's the link that started the whole stupid thread. It's a little ironic to me. On January 7th, I took the American flag off my house and replaced it with the Missouri flag.

I've had a feud going on with a neighbor across the street almost since I moved in. We never speak anymore, and it has cooled down, but he was a yuge Trump supporter. A week after I replaced my flag, he swapped his out with one of these black flags. I had to look up the meaning, too, but my vagina didn't start tingling when I found out.

This neighbor threatened to doxx me to the neighborhood, because I had a bankruptcy from 18 years ago. He thought he'd shame me into compliance. So, I doxxed myself, because I grew up and learned from my mistake, but this asshat never will.

I have gotten the impression that he wants to make some kind of amends now that he thinks we're politically aligned, but I'd sooner put him in the farmer's field than offer him help. In a lot of ways, we are alike.

I don't think it's all that complicated at all. Just listen to everything out of the mouths of the John Kerry types. They've always thought the biggest threat to the globe is the American Superpower. They've said so, for decades.

Now, they're exclusively in charge. And they're determined to reduce the size and scope of the entity they blame for ruining their lives - the American Superpower.

Pretty much this. America at the top of the stack doesn't work for them anymore. The people pushed back with Trump and scared the sh!+ out of them.

463 Forgot to put this up on Monday's thread. (Chores interceded.)

It's not exactly an argument, but a rhetorical ploy. You make up a name for some position as though it's an existing school of thought. At a lib Catholic blog, an author equated "neo-Thomist", "neo-Randist", and "neo-Pelagian". (The first and 3rd are real things; but opposed; the 2nd has nothing to do with the others.) Again, I saw it at NRO, by Steorts*, arguing for homo marriage. Those were early ones I've noticed, but I've seen others.

I've seen it used by lefties, and pseudo-cons, but not that I can recall by any on our side. The virtue is, when used of one's opponents, that you can argue against a "school of thought" without actually having to look at what that school actually says. (The "neo" is useful here.) One thing you DON'T do is say "This is something I will call", et al, which would be honest. But you get to pretend you are involved in a real debate, when you've just made it all up.

Heckuva "addendum" on that article:

Editors' Note: July 28, 2004, Wednesday The Lives column in The Times Magazine on July 18 gave a first-person account of the experience of Amy Richards, who had been pregnant with triplets and decided to abort two of the fetuses. Ms. Richards, who told her story to a freelance Times Magazine contributor, Amy Barrett, discussed her anxiety about having triplets, the procedure to terminate two of the pregnancies and the healthy baby she eventually delivered; she expressed no regret about her decision. The column identified Ms. Richards as a freelancer at the time of her pregnancy but should have also disclosed that she is an abortion rights advocate who has worked with Planned Parenthood, as well as a co-founder of a feminist organization, the Third Wave Foundation, which has financed abortions. That background, which would have shed light on her mind-set, was incorporated in an early draft...

483 Hmmm...I was taught as a tyke that "In days of olde, when Knights were Bold" a Black Flag, carried on the tip of a lance, while traveling meant "Step aside, allow me to pass..or FIGHT...I don't care which.. but I will not step aside. Not for any man".
There was a hierarchy of nobles, and all knights were nobles, some were aligned with the Holy Romans, some with various large Kingdoms, many were still Locals. And an assertion of "I will not yield the road in my own lands" twas quite Knightly.
And that is what HL Menchen was referring to...
He also said "The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable."
