I Think That I Shall Never See, A Poem As Lovely As An ONT
Tally-ho Hordarinos! It is Thursday, my dudes.
Onward Christian Soldiers
Christian Nationalism Is Biblical And America-First, But It’s Not WhiteIf you want to know what the establishment’s all-seeing eye is maniacally fixated on, the amount of energy the corporate media orcs spend bludgeoning “Christian nationalists” provides a clue. Over the past 48 months, there have been dozens of hit jobs on the terror of “Christian nationalism”; there have been about a score of these smear pieces just this past month alone. Their Pavlovian function is to condition Americans to associate the term with a bunch of extremists and racists who pose a Hitleresque threat to this country’s democratic institutions so that they will dutifully freak out. These articles rely on the same tactics: straw man arguments that misrepresent both Christianity and nationalism, and phony attempts to depict the movement as white.
The article does a good job of explaining how Christianity is right in line with Americian values, but I think not enough attention is given to the term nationalism. We've ceded the ground to the left on this one, and that's a very bad thing. “Nationalism” is widely seen as evil, but nobody ever counters that it depends on what kind of nationalism. Hitler's Germany? Stalin's USSR? Of course nationalism in support of those ideologies is bed, because those states were evil. But nationalism in support of this country, and by that I mean the principles it was founded on, that all men are created equal and endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights, that government should be limited and constrained to only enumerated powers? That's a great good thing, and I am proud to be considered a nationalist in support. Speaking of great good things, Here's a video clip of the author of The Great Good Thing, Andrew Klavan, talking about his conversion to Christianity. I found it interesting. That'll Be $6.66 Please
Is Amazon One the Mark of the Beast? No, but That Doesn’t Mean It’s a Good Thing.
Does anyone remember Amazon’s Astro, your own personal robotic assistant? Sounds like just the thing we’ve been hoping for, right? Gizmodo reports that In Sentry mode, Astro patrols your home, looking for faces/things that it does not recognize and ostensibly reports back to you. It can also be paired with Ring. And by now you know that Amazon was sharing Ring information with law enforcement without notifying the owners. Ars Technica has the full story here. Ideally, the internet of things is supposed to make our lives more convenient. But what it does is facilitate the surrender of our personal information and activities to the corporations, who sell it for a profit and, as Ring shows, provides it to the government when necessary. The problem with that is who decides when it is necessary and what are the parameters for doing so.It's alarming how far down the rabbit hole we already are, and how few people seem to see it. We had a taste earlier this year in Canada when the government froze the bank accounts of people participating in the trucker's protest. We just hand away our individual sovereignty for convenience and never think twice (and I'm as guilty as anyone of this). Unreal.
No one would argue that if Ring, Astro, or even Amazon One could nab a drug dealer, identity thief, or child predator, that would not be a positive. But what if you are engaged in an activity or a purchase that while not illegal or immoral, is one that the powers that be don’t like? Let’s say you are following the example of the parents in the Loudoun School District in Virginia and are viewed as a potential terrorist. How will your information be used then?
Speaking Of Canada...
Canada installing weapons armouries, interrogation rooms for Ministry of Climate Change Nonsense
The Ministry of Environment & Climate Change Nonsense Canada (ECCC) is building a new facility in Winnipeg that will be home to a firearms armoury, interrogation rooms, biological labs, media relations offices, “controlled quiet rooms,” and intelligence facilities. The plans, which were drawn up by a firm in Winnipeg, open a window into Trudeau’s future plans for Climate Enforcement.Coming soon to an America near you. Think not? Guess you missed the story that Ace posted earlier this week about how the Democrats stuck authorization for the EPA to regulate carbon dioxide into their inflation increasement act.
Down the hall from the proposed “Firearms Storage” rooms are several evidence rooms, interrogation suites, and adjacent recording rooms. … The Impact Assessment Act (IAA), which was quietly passed in the final days of Trudeau’s majority government, grants sweeping power to Ministerial “Enforcement Officers.” But, until now, little has been explained about where and how Climate Police will be deployed.
The IAA empowers agents of the Ministry of Climate Change Nonsense to enter premises without a warrant to “verify compliance or prevent non-compliance with [the Act].
Trudeau’s Climate Police may enter any project location that affects the environment to take photographs, access computer systems and communication devices, and “direct any person to put any machinery, vehicle or equipment in the place into operation or to cease operating it.” Climate Police may also prohibit access to the location entirely.
Science News Scientists Achieved Self-Sustaining Nuclear Fusion… But Now They Can't Replicate It
Seems to me I've heard this before, but it'll be a great day if they can finally pull it off. Scientists Gave Young Mice The Blood of Old Mice. Then Things Got Weird
In a new experiment, young mice briefly experienced signs of old age when scientists infused them with the blood of older mice. A similar aging effect occurred when human cells were immersed in the plasma of older individuals.The reverse effect was also observed. Second look at vampires? Blogging News If any of you remember old school blogger Protein Wisdom, he's back and has just launched a new blog. He's a smart guy, I always enjoyed reading his stuff. Excuse Me? It is important to use language precisely, particularly when narrating live events.

Fortunately for the young, it turns out that it's mostly "bad stuff in old blood" rather than "good stuff in young blood". While putting young blood in an old animal (or, likely, person) does improve, it's apparently due to the old blood being watered down. You get just about as much effect by removing old blood plasma and replacing it with saline.
It makes sense when you think about it. If you think of your blood being like the oil in your car, and your kidneys and liver as being like the oil filter, the filter is a good thing to have, but can't remove ALL the bad stuff.
No matter how good the oil filter is, once in a while you need a full oil change.

Yes of course nationalism has its flaws, like anything else, bad people can misuse good things.
Keep in mind the alternative is internationalism.
You know - all those secret agreements that caused about 20 countries to go to war with each other overnight aka "World War I" - a debacle unparalleled in world history, and one still reverberates today.
There s no benefit to ceding control to unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats and various asshats and orgs behind the scenes.
What are the supposed benefits or success they can point to? Being a sovereign nation, looking out for their people's interests, does not mean "isolationism" or "xenophobia" or all the other guilt trips they try to play. They've even got the phony baloney pope dude to try and work people over. It's insidious.

And there are a number of clinical trials underway by other companies. I figure some swanky Swiss clinic offers it, but on the Q.T.

If the current thinking is correct, you can get the benefit just by donating plasma, which you can do way more often than you can with whole blood.
Sadly, there isn't a place where I live that actually pays you for the plasma. If you're lucky enough to be in one of those places, you can get an "oil change" and get paid for it.

The two are not linked. In fact they are often at odds, because my Christian faith supersedes my belief in the Constitution.
For instance, I believe that my government should promote the teaching of the Christian doctrine because it is the truth. And I believe it should promote it exclusively because all other religions are false religions.
If I know something to be true and of the utmost importance, why would I then say that I'd prefer that it not be taught to children or influence the decisions of those that govern?

Is is okay to show interest in a friend of a guy i was dating for a month? Never was serious with that guy, but i think he was a little disappointed. Ended cordially. We didn't sleep together. Didn't get very close to it either.
This person is his good friend. I'm very interested in this guy. Is he interested in me? I think so, but can't be sure.
How long should I wait?
I could swipe on his profile right now on a dating app where I've seen him, or I could slow play it on other social media.
I know there are other fish in the sea. But this fish has caught my eye, so let's assume I'm going to go for it. How should I go about it?

I'm a small town guy at heart and I really enjoy dealing with my locals. The difference in price and convenience is more than made up with getting to spend a couple minutes shooting the shit with nice people I want to deal with.
Maybe I'm just an old boomer but I'll trade a couple yucks dealing with my local small business friends for instant gratification of people who hate me any day and if there is something they can't get pretty much every thing I want to buy is available directly from the manufacturer even if it takes a couple extra clicks.

Yes that appears to be a snippet of the story about a library that was lending horrific porn to minors. Yet it seems that particular phrase bubbled to the top of the top search result --making the site look like hardcore ghey porn to someone who was just looking for the site, but maybe wasn't that familiar with it.
I truly think they found a way to avoid a charge of "burying" the search, while depressing the numbers of people who click on the site. I haven't heard of this as a thing but it seemed pretty blatant. And, in the case of Gurgle, I cannot accept that it was random.

My personal opinion is this, you should do as you please.
But your friend that you dumped is also free to do as he pleases. If he hates your guts for it, respect his opinion and accept his decision. I know I wouldn't want to hang out and listen to some chick I was interested in blathering on about how things are going with my friend.
If that's not an acceptable outcome for you to risk, then don't tempt fate.

However... is there a way you can meet in person? All three of you go get drinks together or something? That way Friend can see you hitting it off with Potential Boyfriend and not think you're going behind his back.

All it takes is leadership. We have the law. SCOTUS has said no but they did it anyway. Just as Trump exposed them when he was president, just as their heads explode every time he speaks or writes. As the thousands attend his rally's each one of those attendee represent thousands.
Trump is a leader and as he has stepped forward others are stepping forward. Strong people are stepping forward.
Elon Musk has been red pilled, no, he's not a conservative but he believes in the Constitution and the rule of law and that's what it's about and he's pushing.
_DeSantis is pushing. _Tucker Carlson is pushing. These are take no prisoners punch back leaders.
And the backup choir/support group - more than 90% of Trump's endorsements have won. Then there is MTG, Boebert, Paul, Stefanik, Johnson and those I don't know who are ready to take it to them.
No, we are not losing. We are winning.

I was out for a couple drinks with my son. He and I got into a "discussion" about dating, with him being adamant about how hard it was to meet women.
So I chatted up the barmaid, flirted a little in front of him, and she slipped me her number. And yeah, she was at least 20 years younger.
I looked over at him, his face was a mixture of shock and rage. I chuckled, took a sip of my drink and said, "See, told you it isn't that hard".

This seems reasonable. Uncrazy. In that intersection of "I could say it to my grandmother and also say it to a guy I'm trying to set a hook into."
I admit I also like the straightforward approach. Certainly would save time if he's not interested...
And pookysgirl, we can definitely meet in person at the place where they all hang out. The trick is showing interest while not making the other guy feel bad, which is trickier when they're all together

Only, she misspelled it and had "FACIST" instead. Immediately, I and several others began ripping on her, asking "What's a facist? Isn't that the Bulgarian paramilitary men or something?" She just muttered "dammit" and gave up.

On the topic of fluid changes, AOP. Auto transmission fluid was found to be rather dirty. 161K miles on Jeep Patriot. Better to change fluid plus filter, or will it make things worse? Trans temp light came on once last week. Hasn't since.

I have long wanted a computer that I can talk to and have it do things for me that it knows I need/want. "Computer...". "Working." "Find me all instances of videos of a cat doing stupid things." "Narrow parameters." "Cats getting almost hurt." "Working...".
But the difference between that and Alexa or Siri is that computer was MY computer, not someone else's that was miles away, collecting all my information and data in ITS databanks, instead of MINE. That the computer is MINE is the future I was promised. Google and Apple and Microsoft took that from me and corrupted it and twisted it into the monster that IoT and "assistants" currently are.

This is why I don't care about Hollywood. All they can do is either make ridiculous movies about gender fluid weirdos doing sad things if original, or lame remakes of movies that are already in color and easily available to watch, without even changing the name and merely dumbing down the established character.

I think flirting is going on, but only the top people at work are allowed to do it.
As an example, at one company I was at one of the married head honchos started having an affair with a woman that reported to him. He had a lot of sway AND they needed him, so they just made the woman change managers. She got to keep the promotions he gave her for, uh, well managing his staff on the breakroom couch.
At the same time I got hauled into an HR tribunal because one of my coworkers made an off-color comment about a partner to me ( something like "If you don't get everything right with these fuckers they'll fuck you in the ass") and a feminist cow-worker, I'm pretty sure I know which one, reported him "on my behalf".

I'll give him credit for his writing of fifteen years ago arguing for taking into account that the intention of a speaker or writer counts more in understanding what he is saying than the whimsical interpretation of the readers, such interpretations being usually misreadings.
Of course, this is a pedestrian observation, remarkable only in an age of intellectual rot such as we live in, where intellectuals are more intent on telling you what one means than in understanding what one means.
What I do find odd is that no one seems to remember his post excoriating Trump and all who supported him during the 2016 campaigns, a post which met with great approbation on the left. If he ever repudiated that stance, I'm unaware of it.

I thought that too, and it is clearly what they meant to do. Probably will work until something can be done in 2025.
But from what I heard (I could be wrong) they weren't very clear about it. Slipped it onto a list, and the list was referenced elsewhere. It was pretty clearly a legislative trick.
I'm wondering if SCOTUS will pay back the favor by finding some technicality to vacate the legislation.

The difference between an originalist majority and a leftist activist court it the former follows the Constitution even when it works against us.

I looked it up, it's a reboot as they are basing the film off the second book in the series, unlike the terrible Fletch Lives which was an original script for that film. So this is more like shooting a different Sherlock Holmes story 30 years later with a different actor.

Scotty Kilmer has some thoughts on this, including using a Lucas additive. Check his Ytubes.
Cut to the chase: the dirty trans oil may provide the necessary friction to keep things from total slippage failure. Lucas additives can help but it's all a delaying action.

Our problems lie with our elected officials. They are the ones who appoint the judges and all the bureaucrats who are really destroying the country. In a better country there would riots right now over the fact that we know beyond a doubt the FBI rigged the 2020 election and lots of other elections.

Buddhism says the world doesn't matter, and in fact you need to completely reject it. That's the whole point of knowledge and wisdom. Which leads to the worst of people, those who don't care at all for faith, to wield power.
Islam says this world does matter. But Allah controls everything. So if Allah wants it, it will happen. If it doesn't happen he didn't. So...just publicly submit to Allah and nothing matters. And...you get countries full of people that just don't give a shit about anything.
Then how about Christianity? This world does matter, though the next is more important. God has a plan, but he is expecting you do to the right things to the best of your ability as well here and now. Christianity threads the needle between Gnostic magical thinking, eastern nihilism, and Islamic fatalism. Its kind of neat how it works in society and how it enriches any society that embraces it.

I was over pushing it way to hard and read Lucas would extend its life. I know there's some good and some bad additives but don't know which one.
Going to check your reference.

>>On what basis did Congress have the authority to give it?
That's been the problem both with the bureaucracy and the Executive branch in general for decades. Congress keeps delegating their authority to them as they just did.

I agree with delegation (i.e. I don't want to be responsible so someone else can make the decision) being a problem.
My question though, is 'On what basis does Congress have any authority to regulate the planet's atmosphere in the first place?' Not to put too fine a point on it but air moves, and most of it is outside our national borders most of the time.

One of the major reasons I support Trump in 2024 is because I believe he now understands just how deep the swamp really is. Yes, we have some toxic politicians who do crazy shit but the real power in DC is the permanent bureaucracy.
Call it whatever name you want, deep state, bureaucracy, administrative state, it is the unelected bureaucrats and agencies that actually run most of the government today. Politicians come and go, they never leave. And they are more vicious and more lethal than any politician.
If you haven't already I urge everyone to read up on Trump's EO Schedule F. It was going to be the centerpiece of his 2nd term and it still can be.
The administrative state is what is killing this country.

Drop the pan, clean the gasket, change the filter, add 6 quarts or so of fluid, plus a special thiol (sulfur based) compound you must get from the dealer. It smells like what I imagine Satan's ass smells like, and what I smelled like from my 'bath'.

Well, we just completed a run with the boiling water canner for the first time. I'd been pressure canning before, and this was the first run with the regular boiling water.
That thing was an old enameled steel canner, which had been sitting up in my mother's attic for at least 49 years. She last canned in '73. Damn thing was still in good shape, had a little rust spot here and there, but it was nothing, and was still in good shape.
It took around 3.5 gallons of water to get that thing to the proper level, and does take some time to get that much water to boiling. I guesstimated the timing pretty accurately, and everything went slick as owl shit.

From their FAQ - As a password manager, LastPass will help you in your day-to-day work while improving the overall security of your online life. Key benefits of using LastPass include:
- Convenience - No more forgotten or mistyped passwords
- Time saved - Instantly log in to websites
- Stronger security - Long passwords that you don't have to remember
I don't remember when stronger security and convenience go hand in hand. But large numbers of people can be convinced of pretty much anything these days.
