Impressionism doesn't always look blurry like this. It can be clear and clean. See Gustave Caillebotte, for example. Impressionism is about presenting an idea of something. It's not really about style. The blurriness it's most known for came out of necessity for what some like Monet and Cassatt were trying to accomplish.

Biden on Kimmel is their desperate attempt to appease their idiot boss. And because they're dumb, they just reach for whatever they think worked with Obama.
Posted by: Pick one, ladies

I think it is hilarious that Beijing Biden is just now waking up to the fact that he was set up as the fall guy for Obama's (or his handlers') fevered socialist fallout. Obama was too thin skinned to take the heat, but he's more than happy to flame Brandon Fuckbrains. Delicious

Being around doctors, i see this alot. They can be the cheapest bastards imaginable on everyday spending. They will go without eating if the free lunch in the doctors lounge is cleared out. They will drive across town because the other gas station is 1 cent cheaper. They will also buy a $100,000 Tesla.

"DUBAI (Reuters) - Saudi Arabia's gross domestic product grew 9.9% in the first quarter, the fastest in a decade and more than a flash estimate last month of 9.6%, official data showed on Tuesday.

It was the fastest expansion since the third quarter of 2011 with the increase in oil production a key factor, said Monica Malik, chief economist at Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank.

"This growth is due to the high increase in oil activities by 20.3%," the General Authority for Statistics said."

Yes! I guess you didn't see on the ONT. There's a little fluffy black male kitten at a shelter about 3 hours' drive from me, and I'm deciding whether to go up and see him on Saturday. He's about 4 months old. My hesitation is not due to him -- unless he turns out to be a biter and a loud meower. It's that I haven't lived with a kitten for more than 10 years. The last one I had was super smart and sweet, but she wanted to play all the time -- including at 2 am. I don't know if I can handle a kitten!

I know! This one was pretty good -- all they wanted in advance was a reference from my vet, to make sure I cared for my previous animals, I guess. I inquired about one cat on Petfinder, and the rescue woman sent me a 4-page application!

My local branch of the SPCA has no longhaired cats, which are my preference. They insist on an appointment, too. And on face diapers; I'm not doing that.

If I adopt this little black fellow, I'm not averse to adopting a Siberian in the near future. The breeder lady knows me and won't put me through all that craziness. (She shouldn't, considering the price she asks for kittens.)

LiS, the humidity in Denver was nowhere near as low as you have. Yet it was so close to bone-dry compared to Da Swamp, I had never been so pleased in my life to be outdoors in warmer weather. (The cold wasn't bad either, since it too was dry.) I wish I'd looked for another job in CO when I got laid off that last time.

If I had any relatives in the West, I'd have given them a call then, or in 2005 when I was on enforced vacation from Katrina.

Anytime someone starts talking about the leading killer of children, you're about to hear some BS. Children are, thankfully, remarkably resilient, so whatever things are the "leading" killers of children, they're getting very low numbers, and there's not any real statistical difference between the 3rd leading killer of children and the 27th leading killer of children.

Direct quote from an article at the AAP:

In 2019, firearm injuries surpassed motor vehicle collisions to become the leading cause of death for youth aged 0-19 years in the United States, after excluding deaths due to prematurity and congenital anomalies.

So, in other words, what they are saying is that firearms injury from all causes (homicide, suicide, accidental) is the leading cause of death if you ignore the leading causes of deaths. Blatant misrepresentation.

The AAP is fond of lumping birth to 19 together for their discussions of gun injuries and deaths in children. Allows them to wail "for the little chirren" as they ignore the inconvenient reality that by far and away the majority of gun deaths is in 15-19 year olds, predominantly black males, way out of proportion to black females, white males and white females. I'll have more on this in an upcoming guest post.

Cassatt was the only woman and the only American among the Impressionists. She was the daughter of a Pittsburgh railroad magnate. From what I've heard, she's one of the reasons why the Art Institute of Chicago has such a magnificent collection of Impressionist works: the wives of Chicago's plutocrats - Armour, Swift, Palmer - were introduced to the Impressionists by her, and bought their paintings for what was pocket change for them.

This painting clearly is an oil sketch; most of her work is much more finished.

373 Ross Wightman from B.C. is one of the first Canadians to receive compensation from the federal government for sustaining injuries after receiving a Covid-19 vaccine shot.

Wightman received the AstraZeneca vaccine in April 2021 and was diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) shortly after. The condition left him partially paralyzed.

377 At the VA now, we have to refer to Veterans as "Veteran Smith" instead of Sir or Ma'am. This came about due to our call centers talking to Veterans and assuming their gender via their voice, i.e. what normal people do. So a few, a very few, trans-ninnies got highly offended and complained.

388 By chance just yesterday a good friend who worked in the Senate even longer than I did and I were discussing who might become GOP leader. Didn't take long. The only non-drone or non-ridiculous GOP members, a handful, are themselves either sort of unlikely because too young/not likely to be big fundraisers, or have personalities/profiles that make them very unlikely to be chosen by the caucus.

There are no "Trumps" in the Senate, meaning outliers as individuals who actually seriously want to take simple, utterly conventional actions supported by most of the public (when it takes 2 minutes to think about anything) and which lead to instant positive results.

Any benefit from a non-disastrous president after this disastrous clownshow will almost certainly be based, as before, on executive orders and inherent authority (depending on how much of the latter is usurped/disrupted by a lawless, farcical judiciary).

389 Kavanaugh assassin wanna be caught with a gun and burglary tools near Kavanaughs home. Perp told police he was there to kill Kavanaugh over his Roe v Wade ruling. I am sure whoever s the DA there will turn him over to a nice psychiatric facility for a month to get his meds straightened out. No reasonable prosecutor would charge him.

Odd how the left is so determined that the issue of abortion not be returned to the voters in the states.

Are they worried that they can't convince a majority of state voters to support laws that allow a baby to be killed as he or she is exiting the womb, or are they just worried that they won't be able to corrupt enough elections to cheat their fellow lefty ghouls into state offices?

392 Imagine an opposition party. One that would, given this incident involving Kavanaugh, be shouting at the top of its lungs, through all channels, and not just for one day, accusations of incitement to violence against the Dems who have indeed done such incitement.

McConnell should have a parade of his drones denouncing Schumer by name ("the senator from New York"), and listing all the crude, Third World demagogue vomit from the idiot Harris and others going back to 2020, that has degraded and damaged the country. Accompanied by paid advertising along the same lines.

Instead you'll get nothing.
