36 I was reading about it and the painter took the subject and applied the artistic themes you'd have for greek or roman mythic subject. So some things are off for norse myth but works for the painting. Valkyries are really stacked.

106 Interesting choice, CBD. I say that because, in the 1977 book The Psychopathic God, author Robert Waite, in his attempt to show that Hitler was somehow 'predetermined' to arrive at a crucial point in history and that Hitler himself modeled his appearance on past and contemporary images, used Franz von Stuck's 1889 The Wild Hunt as an example, pointing out how the artist's huntsman eerily resembles Hitler.

124 Damn! Now this is how you start the week: chaos, thunder, naked women, war horses, doom and death. So much for the weekend. At least the activity will help them stay warm.

The power in this scene is incredible. The darkling light, the horde beyond count flying over a winter-devastated earth, the pose of every participant is violent, muscles of man and beast stretched in effort, all of these factors add to the desired feel from Norse mythology. No wonder Viking raiders thought northern France and England were worth conquering. At least they have gentler winters. The wild dark power is emphasized by the few points of brightness with the sun (?) pouring through the clouds and smoke, the moon showing dimly through the clouds and the white bodies of the naked women, some participating and some being captured.

130 Vanreusel said Fox, 55, was found still wearing a “shark band” on her ankle. The electromagnetic device is meant to ward off sharks like the one that killed her.

Her tragic death is the second fatal shark attack at Lovers Point in 73 years, and the first since a 17-year-old boy was killed in December 1952, according to Mercury News.

139 The idea of “The Wild Hunt” comes from an ancient pagan legend / belief that at times of great change and catastrophe, the gods themselves could sometimes be seen rampaging through the sky, wreaking havoc on any in their path.

She often downplayed the risks, preferring terms like "incident" or "bite" over "attack," and emphasized that humans are "humble guests" in the ocean ecosystem. She wore a shark-deterrent anklet (a Sharkbanz electromagnetic device) during the swim, but it proved ineffective against the ambush-style attack.

Perhaps the sharks have learned that the EM signal is the equivalent of a dinner bell. It reminds me of antiaircraft radars that merely show the attacker exactly where they are.

224 Those swimmers in CA wear wetsuits that make them "look like seals" which are a favorite food for sharks in Monterey Bay. I lived there for a decade and would only venture into the water wearing my wetsuit that had colored strips on the arms and legs. That sort of breaks up the "looks like a seal" image. Never heard of this "electromagnetic shark thingy" that apparently did its job until it didn't.

But I would never get into the surf off Lover's Point. For one, it's dangerous, full of kelp and very rocky. Once you get around the Bay towards Monterey proper, or Seaside it's more like a "beach" and not rocks that jut into the ocean.

My middle daughter enrolled at an art college and did one year there, getting excellent grades and improving her technique.

She decided to leave because the people there were insufferable and realized that art alone was unlikely to pay her bills, and is now pushing ahead with getting a nursing certification.

The days when any generic degree was the ticket to a decent income ended about 20 years ago. The nice thing is that my daughter was in the National Guard, so the state and feds picked up the cost of her tuition, so no debt.

248 I saw on Twitter that Brigitte Bardot died.

Young right-wingers mentioned her more recent courageous statements.

Others pointed out that when she was pregnant, she tried to force a miscarriage by punching herself in the belly, and, after abortion became legal, had two of them. Apparently, she also continued to refer to her son as a "cancerous tumor".

Lefties, of course, accused her right-wing fans of hypocrisy. What those kids are really guilty of is ignorance.

The smart reply would be to note the irony - that Bardot didn't connect the dots. "Gosh, Brigitte, it is terrible that your country is now flooded with foreigners. The truth is, they're there to fill a void. Maybe, by word and example, you shouldn't have encouraged French women to kill their babies for over half a century."

P.S. Hey, lefties, it's not "inciting racial hatred" to criticize a religion.

Oh, I can answer this from personal experience - after you've become a professional alcoholic, you get a dopamine hit from the taste and feel of the stuff, and it puts you in a mellow mood. But that only lasts for so long; eventually, no matter how much you drink, the 'happiness' effect wears off, your sadness / anger / self-loathing comes rushing back and you end up feeling worse than before.

But then you write it off as a one-off and drink again the next day. A vicious circle.

304 Trump Seems to Be Having a Bad End of the Year. He has resorted to machine-gunning posts on his social media laughing-stock site. He has attacked Nigerian people for a poorly-stated reason, putting our military to work doing his will.

His poll numbers are dropping like a stone. He is becoming more and more inarticulate in his speech. He is walking poorly and has to sit down to give speeches.

I made a prediction that he would resign before the end of the year. I still see that as a possibility, although it may take a little longer for him to finally cave in and do it.

I feel like he'll blurt out the n word before it's over. Probably to a reporter who is female.

Short of an acute, devastating health event, he will stop at NOTHING to exact revenge on whomever he perceives is causing him distress--even if it hurts his family and even HIMSELF in the aftermath.

I'd prefer a coffin lid to a cell door clanging shut. There are too many bought-and-paid-for judges who can open that cell door for him. Not so with the coffin lid.

He won't step aside voluntarily. He would see that as an acknowledgment of weakness and loss of power. He cannot tolerate that

What I'd like to see before we start messing with the tax code, is-

squeezing out the two trillion or so of graft, corruption give-aways out of the budget that go to leftist organizations and politicians.

With current tax code appropriate punishments for those involved.

Then see where we're at, and maybe then reform things. Probably, consumption tax and tariffs. Not sure though.

351 344 Wouldn't it be darkly amusing if Kamala Harris had absolutely no idea how deep government corruption went, figuring it was all just small time election rigging and doling out blowie J's for a nice cushy life, but then she spent the last few years getting indoctrinated into the utterly perverted world of the Bidens and Walzes of the Party and started drinking heavily just to cope with it? (OK, heavily-er, whatever)

I'm sure her ability to clearly explain things like complex problems dealing with intricate corruption will not diminish with time. She's certainly not going to sail to victory in the primary through name recognition and black girl swagger but instead through serious engagement with issues and people.

As everyone here knows, I'm not particularly happy, though I expect that to change a bit for the better once I retire in February. My drinking has been cut down because of outside events, so I just need to occupy my time with things other than propping up a bar.

In a way we have neither. We don't even know how much they're taking, and we definitely don't know what they're spending it on.

We have both.

The Value Illicitly obtained retains no value. money, like potential energy needs to be put to productive use, like energy, otherwise it will disperse, or if incorrectly used, harm it's possessor -- that is the system that is in place.

The problem that exists is that 1) those at the top continue fall-up 2) their value is no longer licity obtained funding the debt-shouldered by their 'lesser/borrowers' 3) they have become supremely complacent, Unimaginitive, and BORED as a consequence which is why politics/Nation/WORLD is the way it is 4) up-down-right-left all are their playthings because there is no consequence to both their action (and indeed, inaction).

Epstein is the poster child of that.
Future events will change all that.

Release, indeed, FREE AND SPONSOR! the HUNTER BIDEN's, the NICK REINER's, the ever now, and future present Epstein's, Clinton's, Soros', the John Walker/American Taliban's, the James Fergie Chambers (Cox Heir and professional revolutionaries) who will proudly do unto their own people PRECISELY what they forbid us to do to our Adversaries.

383 We have deeply suspect elections. We have a congress that petulantly refuses to do its job and yet boldly does everything that isn't its job. We have a judiciary that acts the same. We have an executive infested with "civil servants" who loathe civilization and despise service and write royal decrees for all to follow even though no one has ever even heard of them.

Making recommendations about, or even trying to make sense of, tax policy and budget priorities in that kind of environment is absurd. It's like trying to reconcile a pesky $0.53 discrepancy in your checkbook during a home invasion.

Correction:
It is very depiction of the War on Normal People that is going on everywhere right now. Where the wealth of the nation is to be held by it's leaders so that they can promote, Propagate and PRECIPITATE WAR on a scale this world has never seen before.

A free and productive people have Absolutely Nothing to gain from War, and, indeed a great deal to Lose. War is made possible when the wealth of a nation is held by it's leaders (Odin) rather than rightly used by its Citizens.

as the congressMONSTERS and euroMONSTER's actively campaign for 25% of their citizen's GDP *AND* the sacrifice of their next generation.

Gee what could go wrong?
A: peace, Rebuilding from the Rubble, WEALTH beyond their Dreams of Avarice dwarfing the piles of money they sit on which does nothing but dissipate.
