I Went To A Hunting Party Once. I Didn't Like It. Terrible People, They All Started Hunting ONT!
Greetings, and welcome to Thursday night. I've been getting a lot of emails from the Horde asking about the barrel. “Where is it?” people want to know, “What is it like inside”? Well, I can't tell you that, but I will post this picture of the outside:
Thursday Quiz
Can you guess the TV show from the first three words of its theme song? I got 10/10, how did you do? Molon Lovey We need to be forthright, in no uncertain terms, what exactly will be the consequences if they try to confiscate our weapons.

Weird Link Of The Day
Little Nuns So apparently this artist got a request for a commission. I don't know the exact request, but it contained the words “Nun” and “duck”. That may not be exactly what the person requesting the art wanted to ask for, but the artist thought that was a hell of an idea, and thus nuns and ducks was born. Here are some of the results.
On Bias And The Narrative
He Looked At The Data And Discovered The BLM Narrative About Cops Was A Lie. Then He Was Fired.
“A decade ago, my experience at Thomson Reuters would have been unthinkable. Most Americans probably think it’s still unthinkable. That’s what makes it so dangerous. Most of us don’t understand how deeply compromised our news sources have become. Most of us have no idea that we are suffused with fictions and half-truths that sound sort of believable and are shielded from scrutiny by people whose job is to challenge them. This is true, above all, of my fellow liberals, who assume that only Republicans complain about the mainstream media. But this is not a partisan issue. This is a We The People issue,” he wrote.This from a liberal. How long can a country be gaslit before it says enough?

Education This is really Ace's drum to beat, he's been quite vocal about it lately, but I found this to be of interest. Now it could be that this is a more or less normal sex-ed bok, but in tone it seems to be aimed at a pretty young demographic, and seems intended to normalize teens having sex instead of just explaining the mechanics.

But It's “Free”!
Why is Canada euthanising the poor?
Many in the healthcare sector came to the same conclusion. Even before Bill C-7 was enacted, reports of abuse were rife. A man with a neurodegenerative disease testified to Parliament that nurses and a medical ethicist at a hospital tried to coerce him into killing himself by threatening to bankrupt him with extra costs** or by kicking him out of the hospital**, and by withholding water from him for 20 days. Virtually every disability rights group in the country opposed the new law. To no effect: for once, the government found it convenient to ignore these otherwise impeccably progressive groups.** Whoh, whoa, whoa, hold on there. I'm informed ad nauseam that healthcare in Canada is “free”, and that nobody has to worry about medical costs. Could that be a....lie???
Since then, things have only gotten worse. A woman in Ontario was forced into euthanasia because her housing benefits did not allow her to get better housing which didn’t aggravate her crippling allergies. Another disabled woman applied to die because she ‘simply cannot afford to keep on living’. Another sought euthanasia because Covid-related debt** left her unable to pay for the treatment** which kept her chronic pain bearable – under the present government, disabled Canadians got $600 in additional financial assistance during Covid; university students got $5,000.
And The Pulitzer Prize Goes To..
...this article. What Bobby McIlvaine Left Behind And well deserved, too. An excellent piece about the impact of 9/11 on the family and fiancée of a man who died in the attack. It's fascinating to see the different way that the reacted, and how they learned to cope with the loss. Lengthy, but worth the read.

9/10. Always wished I'd read more books instead of watching TV as a kid, but it was a relatively benign escape from a rough family situation & childhood.

It turns out that comparing turnout in the Republican primary to turnout in the Democratic primary is an excellent predictor on how things will go in the general election in November.
There have been ten state primaries, and somebody compared relative turnout in each primary to relative turnout in a recent election.
In nine of the primaries, the Republicans significantly increased their share of the total votes cast, versus the earlier election.
The one exception?
Oregon, where the Republican share went up by only 1%.
Sigh.

We were trading "woods porn" by then... old Playboy-type pics you found in the woods. Usually it had been folded and unfolded so many times that it was mostly wrinkles, with most of the ink worn off. A good imagination was required.
If I'm remembering right, I started cranking 'em out manually at 11, and knew exactly what I wanted to do with Mr. Happy in real life. But then I'd always seen dogs, livestock, etc. getting it on, so I knew the score from an early age.

I'm a little unclear how it works, exactly. If you write a tune, and get it published, something something nobody else can record it unless and until you record it first. But if you get your tune picked up by Willie Nelson or Johnny Cash or (insert favorite musician or group here: ) ; well you can make some nice bucks

A nice article about Monkeypox from Igor Chudrov:
"It is not easy for humans to get infected with monkeypox. It is an animal disease, present among African rodents and other animals, that usually requires close human-animal contact to establish transmission. Thus, it is usually confined to rural Africa where people contact wild animals or butcher bushmeat."

there is some thought (from people who are paranoid for a living) that a lot of the newish "bushmeat" related diseases in Africa are not from bushmeat but from either experimental vaccines tried on the locals or experimental releases of modified viruses.
One of the reasons for thinking this is the odd distribution of outbreaks like Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever
Another is that Africans have been eating bushmeat since Homo Saps could break a rock into a sharp edge.

I'd like to see a similar long story about one or maybe 10,000 of the soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines who signed up after 9/11 to avenge Bobby McIlvaine's death. I'd like to read about how their families are doing, coping with the deaths of their loved ones. What they think about the clusterfuck that Obama made of Iraq and Biden made of Afghanistan.
We'll never really see those stories, though. Which is also sad. But not surprising.

There was a Neanderthal skull found years ago that had 4 perfectly round holes punched through it, which led archeologists to spend several years making speculations about trepanning and brain surgery amongst that benighted early human breed.
Then a scientist was sitting in his lab one day and he thought: "Hey, I've got this sabretooth tiger skull sitting here . . . "
Turns out the four holes perfectly matched the sabretooth tiger's four large teeth. Somebody got dragged by the skull into a quieter place to be eaten.

The press knows this, or they are supposed to. And it actually takes more work and effort to write some of the BS they do, then simply tell it straight. That's a tell, in my book.
Shooting an "unarmed" man, evokes a certain response. It implies certain things. While it might be true strictly (or technically) speaking, the fact the decedent was slamming the officers head against a wall trying to steal his weapon in order to shoot him, well you have to get to paragraph 14 to find that part out. A lot of the "unarmed" folks were trying really, really hard to become armed is the point.

I took a mandatory reporting training course online today. According to the course, much of what we are hearing about teachers' interactions \ conversations qualifies as sexual harassment \abuse. Parents can take the course and accuse teachers based on the training that teachers themselves have to take. Should be a slam dunk case because teachers are mandatory reporters.

Looking at this grid thing, it's the middle of the country, the MISO area that is at highest risk. Everything to the west of that is at elevated risk. We on the East coast to that MISO line are good for now.
The cause of this is basically the green shit. Plus weather. A major transmission line feeding MISO was taken out by a tornado -- it will be June before its online again. Then droughts dropping water levels are reducing hydro availability.
And then this green shit, decommission "dirty plants" in favor of wind, solar, and shit has done the most fuckage.
MISO will be hard pressed to handle normal demand over the summer. The West will be fucked if demand is higher than expected.

I lived in Spokane when they experienced a severe ice storm. We were without power for almost a week. There were significant issues but most everyone behaved. I think it will depend on the cause/reason people don't have power. If it's non-weather related (politically motivated) and people can't see what is actually causing the problem their reaction may be more reactionary. Want to cripple a major city? Shut off the water and stop food deliveries. They will be war zones within a week.

Little asshole. I informed him that until he is moron in good standing, he won't be drinking again, and weed is just gross and smelly. I force-fed him ibuprofen, water, and a ham and cheese sandwich and dropped him in the tub to wash off the stank.

I think the weather is a big factor. If a major city lost power for an extended period -- for any reason -- in summer, I'd not want to be around to see what unfolded. Summer is riot and looting weather.

If it's any consolation, there's still hope for the boy.
When I was a freshman in high school, my mom came to wake me up for school one morning. She thought I was sick and had shit the bed. But it was actually vomit, and I was still dead drunk. She came to the bathroom to inquire if I was alright before she figured out what was going on, and I told her I was way, way too drunk to go to school. But I eventually got my shit together.
Adolescent boys and young men have such poor judgment it verges on mental illness.

And I guess you've heard about some of the gas pumps being reprogrammed to allow for double digit dollar prices.
When gas first went over $1 a gallon way back, that was a problem for some of the old pumps. They'd do stuff like, if gas was $1 per gallon, set the price at .50 and then double the total.

Persevere tcn. My first experience with alcohol was at 13. School carnival. My friend and I purloined some vodka and homemade blackberry wine. I threw up on the principal's shoes. A neighbor brought me home and I basically passed out when my mother opened the door. Her reaction was very similar to yours. I had plenty of time to do the chores since I was suspended for a week. I survived my yewt, barely. I have no doubt that the prayers of my mother and grandparents played a major role in that.

Without power for a long period, the water stops. It will stop first in the high rises, then the lower flows as the water towers are depleted. No pumps to get keeping the water uphill.
Same with sewage, where you depend on pumping to get the shit uphill.
Food, at least the kind that needs to be refrigerated, is gone too, in short order. No power to run the refrigeration equipment.
And all the electronic processes for payment and such are gone too.

Jeri Ryan was married Jack Ryan and Illinois Republican who a certain unknown Democrat one Barry soetero was running against him. Here is how rest played out according to Wikipedia.
"Judge Robert Schnider agreed to release the custody files.[33] The decision went against both parents' direct request and reversed the decision to seal the papers in the best interest of the child. It was revealed that six years earlier, Jeri had accused Jack Ryan of asking her to perform sexual acts with him in public[34] and in sex clubs in New York, New Orleans, and Paris.[32][35] Jeri described one as "a bizarre club with cages, whips, and other apparatus hanging from the ceiling."[36] Jack denied these allegations. Although Jeri only made a brief statement,[37] and she refused to comment on the matter during the campaign, the document disclosure led Jack to withdraw his candidacy;[38][39] his main opponent, Barack Obama, then won the 2004 United States Senate election in Illinois.[40]"

Looking it up, Spokane's ice storm was in Nov. of '96.
Half of the city lost power. After 3 days. 100,000 were still out, and after 6 days, 20,000 were still out.
It wasn't the whole city, and not for very long. Some were without power for over a week, but the city was not completely without power.
A major city completely without power goes to hell in a few days. No water, no refrigeration, no sewage, no nothing.

1\2 chicken a jar? How?
Posted by: AmericanKestrel
If it's a whole chicken I bake them and then strip the meat. I tend to buy boneless if I can find it.Found some skinless boneless breasts for $2.19/lb. Bought them out, about 20 lbs. I hot pack with chicken broth in pint jars. Roughly one lb /jar. Gal at 1870's homesteading on Utube has some good info on it.

I've been to that club in New Orleans. I knew a guy that worked there and he let us in before it closed. There was no one there except like 2 people having drinks. We got the tour though and it was really gross and pathetic as they were turning on the lights. I really feel sorry for anyone that goes to those kinds of places.

This summer we're gonna have raging inflation. Gas prices are gonna go over $6 per gallon national average. God knows what diesel will be. Rolling blackouts, and energy shortages. The east coast is going to see rationing of diesel. Maybe the whole country.
Congress will enact price controls before the year is out. And that will just make the shortages worse, of course.
America is going to be a 3rd world shithole.

Denninger wrote a Ticker the other day about what needs to be done to prevent economic collapse, which we're on track for.
First, Fed needs to start hiking rates like a mo-fo. That's going to throw the economy into a recession, more likely actual technical depression. DOW will crash back to 2011 levels. Yep, you're 401K will be about 1/3 of what it is now. An 67% haircut. Housing market? LOLGF.
Energy: stop all refined product exports. Eliminate all restrictions on energy production. Let everybody drill and generate, no matter how dirty or how uncouth. Start polluting the hell of the environment.
That's the only way you're going to save this thing.

For me, it was a party I went to at about 14. I was the middle school manager of a high school lacrosse team, and after the season, as was the custom at the time, there was a party. Now, I won't say 80s parties were like 80s movies, but there was much beer. For some reason, the team liked me, so they gave me beer. Ego me would like to say it was a lot of beer, but reality me knows it was probably like MAYBE 2 or 3 Bud Lights over several hours. The guys liked me, they weren't idiots.

I remember the 18% Carter gave us. Back when my wallet was skinny and I hadn't quite learned I wasn't as smart as I thought I was. The Fed doesn't have the Cajones to come close to that. When the Dow hits 28k I think the idiots in charge will panic and accelerate the destruction. Misery is on the horizon.

It was Volcker who gave you 18% interest rates, taming the inflation that Tricky Dick started by pressuring then Fed Chairman Arthur Burns to keep the money spigots open. Tricky Dick believe the Fed cost him the '60 election by tightening too much.
There are accounts that Tricky Dick actually physically threatened Burns.
When Volcker took away the punch bowl, the Federal govt, was not too much in relative debt. Uncle Sam could stand 16% 10 yr T rates. Not today. Uncle is $30T in debt, total, and that kind of interest rate would bankrupt him.
The dollar is doomed, unless the Fed does a Volcker, and that means bankrupting the federal govt. Denninger and some others are of the opinion the Fed will do this, as they know that if the dollar goes down, they go down with it. Of course, the Fed exists only at the pleasure of Uncle. I don't know what will happen.
But I know this, we need to go through a gut-growling Greatest Depression to clear all the bad debt and excesses. The can has been kicked down the road as far as possible. The piper is going to have to be paid.

They really never grasped that the 'rope, tree, some assembly required' idea was about/for them, not us. They seem to believe that since no one has rebelled in over one hundred and fifty years, no will do it now or in the future. They like rearranging the deck chairs on the USS Titanic as it makes them feel oh so important. But they'll be just as stunned as the Coucesus when the shit really hits the fan for themselves.
