Sunday Overnight Open Thread (2/6/22) Lazy Edition
Quote I “Oceans are critical to understanding climate change. They cover about 70 percent of the planet’s surface and absorb more than 90 percent of global warming heat.”University of St Thomas professor John AbrahamDamn. We are all going to die.
Quote II “There are those in our party who believe that as the presiding officer over the joint session of Congress, I possessed unilateral authority to reject electoral college votes. And I heard this week that President Trump said I had the right to ‘overturn the election,'. “President Trump is wrong. I had no right to overturn the election,” Former VP Mike Pence
Quote III "Animal lovers and liberty lovers can agree that taxpayers should not be forced to pay $2 million for beagle puppies to be injected with cocaine just to fulfill outdated FDA red tape," Justin Goodman, senior vice president of advocacy of public policy at White Coat Waste,
Some people deserve no mercy.
The only "Hatred" there is from the elites. Trudeau is a pussy, eh.
Illegal voting? It never happens.
The founder of the Black Lives Matter chapter in Memphis has been sentenced to prison for six years for illegally registering to vote in Tennessee, prosecutors said. Pamela Moses, the 44-year-old activist, was ordered to spend six years and one day behind bars Monday for registering to vote despite felony convictions in 2015 that made her ineligible to do so, Shelby County District Attorney General. Amy Weirich said. In handing down the sentence, Judge Michael Ward accused her of deceiving the probation department to obtain the right to vote, “You tricked the probation department into giving you documents saying you were off probation,” Ward said in court, the Washington Post reported.
Chinese Olympics fans erupted on social media, furious that California-born skater Zhu Yi defected to China for the games but finished in a disastrous dead last place during her debut for Team China. Yi, who gave up her U.S. citizenship to become a Chinese citizen so she could compete for the communist government’s genocide Olympics, finished with the lowest score for the entire event in Beijing on Saturday, the Daily Mail reported.
NSFW-Language, unless you're a sailor
Centre Co., PA (WJAC) — Investigators with the Bureau of Liquor Control Enforcement say a Centre County couple has been charged for illegally producing and selling moonshine for the better part of three decades, according to a criminal complaint. Authorities say Glenn and Barbara McCleester, ages 79 and 65 respectively, face misdemeanor charges of unlawful sales of liquor and manufacturing and selling liquor without a license, according to online court documents.

X-RAY HELL Seven die and dozens poisoned after ‘doctors tell them to swallow battery fluid before having X-rays’ SEVEN people died and at least two dozen were poisoned after doctors told them to "swallow battery fluid" before having X-rays. The victims suffered agonising deaths and chronic injuries after the deadly blunder at St Petersburg's Municipal Diagnostic Centre No. 1 clinic in Russia.
I could have told you years ago that the "Great Outdoors" does the soul good.
Hundreds of scientific studies have now demonstrated that spending time in nature has mental and physical health benefits for those feeling stressed, uninspired, lethargic or burnt out from the daily (unhealthy) grind of sitting at a desk and staring at a screen. And all over the world, different nations have different keywords for the importance of getting outside. Japan turns to shinrin-yoku, or “forest bathing,” which is the act of taking in nature using all of your senses. Germany’s mastered the art of volksmarsch, a non-competitive weekend walking event through the woods. Norwegians encourage koselig, which calls for a celebration of the outdoors, even in the depths of winter. And South Koreans “hit mung,” which means letting your mind go as blank as possible in a calm setting, usually in natural environs.

Patience, my friend! When I adopted my cat Jasmine, I already had a cat (Penny) at home. It took *months* before Jasmine would really become very approachable. She kept her distance from me and Penny for quite some time. I'd find her under chairs, in the closet, and she even found a way to climb into the drawers of my tv table. Now she hangs out with me all the time and she and Penny are the best of friends. It just takes time!

Other than maybe hockey, none will make millions for going pro. For nearly all of them, it is pure dedication to their craft, for the chance to have some good memories and a "hi, MOM!" moment on TV.
And because the Chinese flu has eliminated fans in the stands, there is no response as they make their athletic magic. Sad, really, for the athletes.

Issue was if he wasn't going to do anything, he should have straight up told Trump in December. Instead, he played Trump and did it at the last minute at the last minute. I honestly think that given his track record and stench coming from Pence's underlings that he is as much to blame as anyone over the Jan 6 Capitol incident.

He did not even inform Trump of what he was going to do. If you add up all the problems that Trump had--Pence and his people were at the heart of it. Ditto for Pence's recent crap download at the Federalist Society speech which is a damn good reason to ignore for any future judges.

The oddest part of this? In the drill they ran, which was basically a perfect dry run for COVID, they did all the things that the drill called for, and it failed in the same ways the drill spelled out.
So...if the drill was intended to prepare the medical and government leadership for COVID it failed - utterly and completely.
If the drill was to prepare them to use a disease to control society though, well then it was a pretty damn good drill wasn't it?

I suspect that the oligarchy running Canada is weighing their choices, and they are ok with the plebes suffering a bit as many truckers refuse to work after this.

This thing is staggering. A 7-page memo written in May 2017 by Richard Higgins of the NSC (and fired by McMaster for it). He had the whole Deep State Trump strategy all figured out...five years ago! It's really good and it's actually pretty concise for seven pages.
He did have one line that you'd swear was lifted from here: More afraid of being accused of being called a racist, sexist, homophobe or lslamophobe than of failing to enforce their oaths to "support and defend the Constitution," the Republican Establishment...

I've known of the band for a while but I haven't really listened until today. It's got two (at the time) former members of Helloween in it. Michael Kiske singing and Kai Hansen playing lead guitar. It starts off simply enough but ends as a pretty solid straight ahead rocker with lyrics that are uplifting without being saccharine or corny as shit. Lyrics are in the comments section. Dare you not to sing along. Enjoy!

There is a pretty good video on youtube about the central problem of authoritarian regimes - which is essentially that the despot needs people under him to carry out his will - and to keep them working for him he needs to give them a better deal then if they jump to the opposition or try to take power themselves.
Which means he has to loot the plebes more and more to pay his allies...which in turn increases political instability. The "solution" then is to use terror and violence to keep the plebes, and ultimately even his henchmen in line (hi Stalin!) but usually the system breaks down over time.

He did not even inform Trump of what he was going to do. If you add up all the problems that Trump had--Pence and his people were at the heart of it. Ditto for Pence's recent crap download at the Federalist Society speech which is a damn good reason to ignore for any future judges.

The one question that I have is there is one person who could have said this plainly, and a long time ago. Mike Flynn was fired because he 'lied' to Pence. Now, I never thought this made complete sense, but Flynn could clear this up himself. As far as I remember, he didn't dispute this. Am I wrong?

This is why the Canadian truckers have so much power. Virtually *everything* in Canada is dependent on keeping the trucks rolling along. When that stops, the country grinds to a halt (in the wintertime, no less). People WILL start dying eventually. Then the leaders will have real problems on their hands as the people demand they do something. But they can't kill all of the truckers and they don't have the resources to manage the logistical supply chains on their own. It's a first-world country falling apart in real time.

But Mychael is barely being old enough to order on her dad's VISA at the local Capitol Hill watering hole, so the narrative that her The Hill's liberal editor needs was never going to be challenged by a review of the Constitution by Mychael - Afterall, how is she going to afford to pay her share of the 5 girl roommates' rent in DC if she's fired at the Hill and has to become a real reporter?

NBC is facing a cataclysmic loss of audience for the 2022 Winter Olympics as viewership tanked for Friday's Opening Ceremony, averaging just 16 million.
It is a record low for the Opening Ceremony (20.1 million for 1988 in Calgary was the previous record) and a whopping 43 percent below the 2018 Games in South Korea that notched 28.3 million viewers despite also dealing with a less than advantageous Asian time zone for American audiences.
It comes on the heels of Thursday's ratings disaster that saw just 7.7 million people tune in, dramatically below same-night audiences of 2018 (16 million) and 2014 from Russia (20.02 million).

Organizations with character are rarely impotent, their conscience provides the Will To Act, even when it seems hopeless. Especiallt then.
The same estrogen induced pussification that causes NRO Sissies to prenaturely Surrender Gracefully is also why the NeverTrumpers trend towards Treachery: beytraying Trust is easy, its a cheat motivated by weakness and desperation, for the same reason women prefer poison to swordplay.
Its really simple - men who can be trusted avoid treachery, not so much because its dishonorable, they avoid it because its inferior to what they already employ. Why waste time and energy on bronze when you carry iron?

Since any mediocre male college soccer player would be the superstar of the women's league after "transitioning", there are certainly incentives to do so.

Shit. I know of no batteries that use barium salts to function. Barium sulfate is used in "Barium Cocktails" to prep for GI X-rays. The stuff has approximately Zero solubility in water, which is why it is quite safe to drink. Barium chloride, on the other hand, is quite soluble, and very toxic, as are most soluble heavy metal salts.

Short summary, Pence's balls are always in someone else's pocket.
Politically, he is from GOPe roots that find repeatedly no hill to fight and die on. Retreat is the first resort. Money wise, he is broke by Washington standards and depending on his buddies in the GOPe for sinecures--see Heritage and book deal among others. Personality wise, he is a coward--neither hot nor cold and prefers leaking his responses to the press rather than making his position known in a public speech.

My younger sister died a few years ago at 63 from metastasizing cancers that started as melanoma. Passing the time with her a few months before, I said something about her not spending a lot of time in the sun as far as I knew (she lived in Chicago) and asked what kind of melanoma it started as. She blushed and said "Uh, it was, uh . . . vulvar." I was so embarrassed I tried to joke my way out of it by saying "Oh . . . . You're not a nudist AND a contortionist, are you? We never suspected you were into either!" It worked: she had a weird sense of humor and found that amusing. Or maybe she was just pretending to help me out.

The truckers are not just in Ottawa. They are in, or making protesrt runs into every provincial capitol. They are doing slow roll rolling roadblocks on major highways. Slow the traffic to less than 30 for about 15 minutes, pull aside and let the jam pass. Then do it all over again.
The border crossing in Coutts Alberta was closed by the truckers. The truckers reopened it almost a week ago.
But the RCMP has shut down all the roads leading to Coutts at the Milk River. There a few dozen trucks in Coutts. North of the Milk River RCMP Roadblock, there are hundreds of trucks, tractors and cars encamped, blockading the RCMP Blockade.
None of this is violent. None of this is illegal. It is all legal civil protest.

The GOP was founded as a progressive party but rapidly pivoted in about 1896 to become the corporate party. As long as those corporations were US based, that worked. But, the post WWII era meant multinational corporations, big oversea commitments in war and peace, and viewing itself as 'leader' of the free world. All institutions in the US were then focused on that goal rather than maintaining the US at home.
This led increasingly to an elite in the US that views itself as more alike with global elites than their own citizens. These elites, because they are insulated for now from the damage they do, view policy in moralistic and religious terms as aspirations rather than concrete policy based on the overall interests of the citizens of the US. That is why they hate any America government considering its own interests rather than the global elite. Same tantrum as in Brexit.

I bet the political establishments in both Canada and the United States are ruing the day they decided to mandate a vax passport to cross the border, from one country with a huge Covid epidemic to a neighboring country, also with a huge Covid epidemic. It's not like there was any public health reason for this - it was pure harassment.
It turns out that trucks are an excellent instrument for civil disobedience, and the truckers have now figured this out.

Not good enough for the U.S. team, takes the next best offer. Perhaps Olympics need a rule change: you play for the country in which you were born, or you play for the country in which you have been a naturalized citizen for at least 8 years (2 olympic cycles). That would basically end carpet baggers.

Sport doesn't mean they aren't athletes. And it doesn't mean their sport isn't one.
Just speaking for myself here, but part of the frustration for me in judged events is not having an eye for the judges criteria, so I see one thing and think "Great" and another and think "Meh" and "Meh" wins.
That and given the level of corruption in any international body, it's hard to watch and assume the event isn't fixed (like the French ice dancers several games ago).
As opposed to something like biathalon, where you can watch and say 'Yeah that guy missed too many times, so the other guy was first across the line and it's obvious to everyone.'

Dr. Claw, it has long been my belief that the GOPe has been playing voting fraud games in GOP primaries, overtly or covertly, for decades.
Not one GOP Sec of State seems to have any problem ignoring cleaning up voter rolls to get rid of dead, moved, or non-existent voter registrants. Note that both Ohio and Florida cleaned their voting rolls and Trump and GOP did well in both. Arizona, Georgia, etc. have not among others. Regardless of Dominion, the mass of bad ballots came from floaters (non-existent voters or voting on behalf of non-voters) collected by ballot harvesting in the six states where the people collecting those ballots were paid big bucks.
In each of the six swing states, the Dems had real time information on who was voting from the voting history files and when they needed to on election night, they dropped the huge number of ballots in the name of non-existent registrants and people registered but had not cast a ballot (or moved out of state, etc.).

There may be some precedent for what could happen in Ottawa. Remember the "Bonus Army" of protesting WWI vets that gathered in Washington in 1932. These were out of work vets for the most part.
Herbert Hoover eventually ordered them to be cleared out by force. Douglas MacArthur lead a contingent of troops with tanks that drove them out. They then burned all the belongings of the vets.

If you read the history of the events of the Bonus Army in Washington, it started out pretty much like Truckistan now. The vets were camped out all over, and they let them stay. Some advocated just let them stay until they got tired and went home. But others wanted to run them out. Including Hoover.
They started getting rough with them a little bit, and then some cops shot some of the vets, and riots broke out. Then they sent MacArthur in with the army.
It sounds like Ottawa is now starting the "start to get rough with 'em" phase.

Certainly is, but at least a re-vitalized Colt is back in operation, with new, not-ancient-worn-out-tooling, and they're bringing back more and more of the classics. Bad, but better than letting Colt disappear into the aether.
And, at least Ruger bought Marlin, so they're still All American, as is Henry, Smith & Wesson, Savage/Mossberg and countless smaller shops. Inside baseball. As of the 2000 era, it was reported that Ruger did the basic investment casting of nearly 90% of the "irons" for nearly every major golf club maker.
It's not that American Gun Companies are doomed to fail. It's that American Gun Companies who remained in the ossified NorthEast Gun HATING States, that became doomed by their own domains.

One of the biggest problems we had with using Judges to score Historic Sword fighting matches, was finding Judges who could actually see what was going on. It happens SO fast, and is often SO subtle, that you could score, and withdraw your blade, and they literally could not see it. At times we had to SLOW DOWN valid strikes, so the F'n Judges could see it.
If you have not done it for many many years... at a very high level, your brain cannot comprehend what is happening when truly gifted swordsmen fight.

They aren't judging on "artistic merit", anymore than a baseball umpire does. The goal is to be objective. Humans, being fallible, can have bias or make mistakes, so subjectivity may creep in, but it's not explicitly baked into the cake as it is in gymnastics, figure skating, or diving, to name but three.

History sure does rhyme. Note how the truckers and all other deplorables and unacceptables are called seditionists, insurrectionists, and terrorists with right-wing extremist views and racist, sexist, every -ist in the book.
Same with the Bonus Army. But back then, they were called communist insurrectionists. Make no mistake, the commies of the day were itching to take advantage of such situations and were agitating, but those vets weren't commies.

I volunteered to judge trucks in the show at a Studebaker National Meet years ago. I earned the enmity of one member because I judged his very beautiful Coupe Express as "inauthentic" because it had a straight 8 engine in it, instead of the normal Commander six. He had documents to show that ONE such had been built, special order, by the factory, for a dealer to use as a tow truck. But his was NOT that same truck, but a recreation thereof. His truck was absolutely perfect in every way, but it was a replica of a one-off that no longer exists. I was over-ruled by the meet committee, and I don't resent that.

He thought that the police were trying to bluff the Truckers into giving up. I have no idea whether his take is correct or not.
Btw, it was truly shameful for Hoover to have called in US troops on the Bonus Army. Sometime we think he wasn't so bad because we hate what FDR did; but Hoover was terrible, and deserved the bad reputation he was given.

Indeed, Hoover was himself as big a statist as FDR was. He was all for govt control and Big State solutions. I remember reading some good pieces on this. IIRC, with the big post WWI depression (IIRC, that was, at least on the producer price index side, the biggest bout of deflation on record), Hoover, some lower level official then under Harding (I think, it's late) was all in favor of govt intervention.
They told him to go fuck himself. Quickest recovery in history, too.

I doubt the truckers will fall for it. They have been there a full week, and haven't initiated any violence, and have not responded to any provocations, or we would have heard no end of it. This is very much Gandhi-style civil disobedience.

A large part of sword fighting is NOT visual... its the feel of your opponent's blade... and I used modern thought (OODA loops) to 'dictate' what actions my opponent could do...
And its amusing, that if you read the old fencing masters... DiGrassi, Silver, Agrippa.... they all understood that concept of forcing your opponent into a set series of reactions... Just like the OODA loop... everything old, is new again.

At the Milk River RMCP Roadblock, there are probably 60 RCMP and Local Police Blocking the Highway to the border town of Coutts and a few dozen truckers and farmers protesting. Behind the Milk River roadblock are about a thousand friends and family of the truckers. This weekend 300 horsemen amd women showed up to visit Milk River and Coutts. How much coordination did that take? Want to bet everyone knew everyone else? Even the cops.

As of this morning, the "blockade" has moved up the highway to Milk River, about 11 miles north of the border, and the actual blockade line was made up of Sherriffs' Service vehicles, plus some RCMP. Alberta Sherriffs are basically county bylaw enforcement officers, and are members of a civil service union, which is radical leftist. So they have joined the blockade in an effort to topple the nominally "conservative" Alberta Provincial Government. Strange bedfellows.
And there are alternate crossing points both east and west of Coutts/Sweetgrass, a few miles away. The blockade is entirely symbolic.

Officials in football, tennis, hockey, and baseball are attempting to discern facts, based on their observations. Was the ball in the strike zone, or was it not? Whether or not the pitcher fell on his ass while executing a pirouette after releasing the pitch has no bearing on that. It sure does in figure skating.

Yes, I agree. May I emphasize WHEN these protests start here, Video Everything. If you see Glowies, confront them. If you have access to an overhead view of any protest, set up a camera or three. Here we have to worry about the politicized police AND the Democrat Storm Trooper Antifa both. (No Antifa counter protest/attacks at January 6 is why I think it was a False Flag incident at the Capitol building)

Americans, this is your birthright, the stern stuff from which our Founders were forged. Except from Mr. Patrick Henry:
It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace-- but there is no peace.
The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash
of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that
gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the
price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but
as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

I'll simply note what the situation is and go about fixing it to the best of my ability. It's a part of my heritage to continue the struggle of those who preceded me to ensure my country endures.
I've long said that fulfilling the oath we swore to protect and defend doesn't always mean picking up a weapon. But make NO mistake that if the situation requires I'll do just that.
Posted by: irongrampa at February 07, 2022 01:32 AM (KATBx)
Yes, we are in war. Against a global oligarchy that wishes to put us all in chains, owning nothing, liking it, and eating bugs.
Our forebears said "Give me liberty, or give me death!". That is our birthright. Do you believe it? The time is coming, soon, when your mettle on this question is going to be tested.
Are you worthy of your Founding Fathers? Are you their true sons?

Our Founding Fathers pledged their "lives, fortunes, and sacred honor" for liberty. For freedom. They meant it. They really, really meant it. Do you?
As one of those Founders, an ol' horndog, MILF loving dirty old man feller named Ben Franklin put it, "We must hang together, for surely we will hang separately."
That ol' horndog meant it. He would lose it all, watch his house, his fortune, everything he loved, be burned to the ground. For freedom.
We are all going to be tested on that, make no mistake. It's coming. Gird yo' loins, fellow babies.

I have been drinking that makers mark stuff. Its real smooth. The whole music thing, I'm used to gutter drinking. You don't ask, everything gets labeled as booze, like chief's surprise, you drink whats there. Other than long island ice teas, which the do the job fast and efficient, I never really had a booze I could zero in on, although I knew I was a brown booze dude. I couldn't tell a good bourbon from a bad bourbon, but I kinda like this stuff. What should I try next?

I almost bought that woodford stuff the last time I was in the store. It was only a few dollars more than the makers mark stuff, if not the same price, and it sounded real familiar. Maybe I saw it at the texas mome. I'm going to get that tomorrow, because the bottle ran dry tonight, well one glass left anyway. I'll check the others out too.

Not the metal cruises i normally do, but regular family cruise (oooh I sense rant mode coming). The frigging ship had this gourmet food thing happening, the shit they give you Ethiopian portions of and looks like crap. Ooooh loook at this pile of shit vegetable, looks like somebody cleaned out the sink strainer and packed it in clear jello. Then I look around the table and see these chuckleheads in their fucking suits, in the caribbean, where its hotter than the core of the sun all pretending that they're donald trump at some billion dollar a plate dinner. No assholes, you're on a fucking boat, on vacation, and you want to piss away 3...3 hours of your night eating food that would insult a garbage disposal.

Gref is from Houston, drove all the way to Love Field and picked up nurse and myself. It was a noble effort, we got stuck in drivetime afternoon Dallas traffic, and Gref never (well, a little bit) complained. It was so nice to have a relative local driving.

Liquor stores fall from the sky in jersey. There's one almost every mile and one in between. I can light a smoke, and hit 3 different stores around here before the smoke is done. You don't need to know where they are, just stay in the car for 2 minutes. Texas, yeah a little different there.

Yes, folks, this is the stratergery. Gandhi and Rodney Dangerfield. The Devil will not be mocked. So, mock the fuck out of him.
Laugh at them, ridicule them. Just have a grand ol' time. Goons show up, laugh at them. Film everything. Laugh at 'em. They order you around, we's gonna confiscate this, let 'em have it. Laugh at them, and film it. Slap 'em on the back and give them donuts.
This is the way.

When I was publisher of an English language newspaper in Hungary, some ginned-up trolls came to protest us (corrupt politicians don't like it when you publish stories about them).
Cold wet day in Budapest. I sent the staff out to get the hired "protesters" (mainly old folks) Hot chocolate, coffee and donuts.

I haven't read one of these screwball things in a while. I kinda missed this simple nonsense. It's refreshing to enjoy this simple stupidity.

I thought my reading comprehension was off and was going to give it another go, more slowly, until I saw the nic.

It's hilarious watching their reactions.
Also fun is telling everyone and their dog to waste the cops time by showing up with gas cans. Every available person should be carrying a gas can. Fill 'em with water. Whatever. Waste the cop's time wherever you can, just for shits and giggles. Sounds fun!

I also have non clue what you're drinking, so I'll have to look that one up.

And what motivated you to quit?

I was laid off and had to get a job. I just assumed I would be drug tested.
As it happens, I found one that required no testing, and happily continued to get high daily.

My employers reserve the right to test at will. I've seen them send entire shifts off for testing, and if there is an injury on your shift, everyone on the floor will be sent for a five panel.
Posted by: Sam Adams at February 07, 2022 04:08 AM (VDbGO)
So careful, kids
Posted by: Miklos, suddenly reminded at February 07, 2022 04:05 AM (QzkSJ)
I learned that when I was on GU Talk. I'd never heard of smogging down, though.
Sam - not weird, but unusual? I dunno. My dear departed and got high every day, if we had it. Once he was gone, it lasted a lot longer and I didn't run out.
I so miss it.

SERIOUSLY?
After watching their nation BURN under BLM, after watching them BURN DOWN THEIR CHURCHES over a LIE, they're going to persecute a bunch of peaceful, productive truckers for "mischief?"

I was surprised by how angry I became. Not at her, brainwashed I think, vaxxed and likely boosted. But good people suffering because of evil people. They have been damaged because someone wanted money and power and that makes me very angry.

I am so sorry about your friends. My niece's husband, a cop, is sick with Covid. It's pretty bad. I made the mistake of attempting to tell my sister not to listen to the media, and that Ivermectin was a proven, effective treatment.
I was insulting her religion, which is Leftism. She doesn't want to hear it. Will never speak to me again if I bring it up again.
I think she would actually rather see her Son-in-Law DIE than see him recover using Ivermectin. Leftism is a CULT.
