[H]e wasn't alone on his righteous indignation. Conservative blogger Ace of Spades wrote an entire treatise on how to deal with the miscreant liberals in your family when they use any of these "Vox explainer" talking points. It's very elaborate and very, very serious.... As I said, it's all very elaborate. He goes on to lay out a complicated set of tactical arguments designed to tie the foolish liberal up in knots. It is obviously something that merits a lot of serious thought and preparation. Clearly, it's extremely important.Pearls before dum-dums. As Aldous Huxley obsevered: "Every man is the author of his own pwnage." Incidentally, Charles Cooke's piece was also panned by this Very Intelligent Pyrsyn, as trying for humor with "mixed results." That must mean it's pretty good. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Dear Salon,
The reason we conservatives get annoyed is because you brain dead idiots can't just enjoy being with family and friends without trying to shove your immoral, illogical, evil philosophy down our throats. In short, fuck off. Great to see you again, all my love, Weirddave Posted by: Weirddave at November 26, 2015 02:31 PM (d4mMH) 23

Salon made its initial public offering of Salon.com on the NASDAQ in 1999. In November 2002, the company announced it had accumulated cash and non-cash losses of $80 million, and by February 2003 it was having difficulty paying its rent, and made an appeal for donations to keep the company running. On October 9, 2003, Michael O'Donnell, the chief executive and president of Salon Media Group, said he was leaving the company after seven years because it was "time for a change." When he left, Salon.com had accrued $83.6 million in losses since its inception, and its stock traded for 5¢ on the OTC Bulletin Board.

Business model and operations Salon has been unprofitable through its entire history. Since 2007, the company has been dependent on ongoing cash injections from board Chairman John Warnock and William Hambrecht, father of former Salon CEO Elizabeth Hambrecht. 19 years of red ink.

So Heather Dingbat Parton claims they were the ones being tongue-in-cheek with their exhortations to harangue their conservative family at T-day dinner, and we are the ones who didn't get the joke and are earnestly counterattacking?
As Rush has been going on and on about, because apparently a lot of people just don't really get it, everything is political to the leftists. Every single fucking thing. Nothing outside the state, as their totalitarian forebears proclaimed. Every aspect of life and the material world is political. The purpose of everything is political. Thanksgiving Dinner? Opportunity to advance the agenda, duh. Anything they look at will have political implications. Take a set of plans for building a, hell, doghouse. They'll see symbols of racial and patriarchal oppression in those plans. And homophobic heteronormalizing in there as well. A lot of our people, being normal, just can see this and take a lot of what these SJW say at face value. No, everything they do has a political meaning, and that's the prime purpose.

I've got RA (rheumatoid arthritis), and know a little bit about these class of drugs, like Humira. These are called "biologics" and basically suppressive components of the immune system to stop inflammation.
The "rashes" that these treat are serious things, like psoriasis, which is itself an autoimmune disease, causing your immune system to attack your skin. A type of arthritis, similiar to RA, but not the same, oft goes along with it. Although they want me to, I've not taken them because the immune suppression is much worse, and with what I do, getting kicks and cuts all the time, raging infections could develop. The side effects are bad, but the disease they are treating is worse, when used properly. Posted by: publius (not Breitbart publius) at November 26, 2015 04:08 PM (dvuhZ) 294

I've heard of Joyce Carol Oates, but I don't believe I've ever read anything of hers.
It sounds like she is one of those authors that the "smart set" thinks is "important". I don't believe my life is poorer for not having read her, though. Posted by: rickl at November 26, 2015 04:19 PM (sdi6R) 319

Name of the game -- the most for the least. Two things for those so inclined. Have AMZ Prime and heard about and checked out The Man in the High Castle . Has anybody watched it -- opinions? FYI I am not Sci Fi fan (so this is about as far as I get with that) but big on history Second, any good news source out there? With the exception of Special Report I miss nothing about Fox. Right now I just occasionally check out Sky News (have no antenna or access to local) and the radio -- visuals are not a big deal for me and clips of the major events are usually available. Thanks.

The other night, we were wondering just who is facilitating the transfer of illegal ISIS oil into the market, laundering that oil essentially. Crude isn't something you smuggle across in jars and use directly. It has to be refined and processed. No small operation that requires infrastructure.
Turkey is up to its eyeballs in it, and now I just read a piece at ZH naming names. The ISIS oilman is Bilal Erdogan, son of el Presidente. He's US edumacted, masters from Kennedy School, Hahvad dahling, and a stint at the World Bank before moving on to run a "marine transport company". This company is apparently the dirty bird in running ISIS oil. They say the Russian jet was shot down over one of the corridors where Bilal moves his illicit oil. That would explain the shootdown, if they thought Ivan was going target the Turkish side. Posted by: publius (not Breitbart publius) at November 26, 2015 05:04 PM (dvuhZ) 386

Usually leftists like to deal with this by just ignoring history .,.. but when they have to look at history they are, thus, compelled to rewrite it. it's like countries.

The left is full of those gaps, Bruce. I know successful businesspeople who run their businesses on solid economic principles who insist that governments can only successfully be run on the opposite principles.
I know people who scoff at other people who don't stick to strict budgets who will actually say aloud that there's plenty of money to pay for our government (which is underwater by several times its GDP). "Tunnel vision" is I think more common than not, actually. Posted by: Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith at November 26, 2015 05:21 PM (5P63C) **** It's the Keith Ellison school of thought.

EconTalk is an outstanding podcast. He talks about people comparing the ideal theory of whatever axiom you subscribe to, and compare it to the reality of whatever is happening. Explaining the uneven playing-field that people set up in their mind, because they are human, is valuable.
Do you think the government should provide proposition X? A high percent of people say yes. Do you think the DMV should provide proposition X? A lower number say yes. You say IRS, congress, the President, the Supreme Court, or literally any element of the government at all, and you will get lower numbers. Getting people to admit that the government isn't more than the sum of it's parts is a beginning step. More people should have been skeptical about ACA, and the country is doomed if it stays naive.

I had a micro-debate recently with a liberal about size-of-government. I did point out that, if the richest country in the world can't pay for it, it might be too expensive.
They replied that it's not that we can't pay for it, it's a question of priorities. They didn't mean, as it turns out, what to spend money on *within* government, they wanted society to spend less on other things. And more on what THEY wanted. While pointing out this is the ultimate in selfishness, I also pointed out that unfunded liabilities were such that, to pay it off, we'd have to spend nothing on entertainment, housing, transportation, medical care, and food for at least two decades. Ultimately, they will vote the same and think the same, because they rewrite reality on the fly. Posted by: Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith at November 26, 2015 05:32 PM (5P63C) 428

Uncle: "...and according to what you said last Thanksgiving, the pilgrims on the Mayflower were bent on genocide and destruction."Posted by: davidr at November 26, 2015 05:22 PM (K7l7c)
--- Do the fake refugees want to farm their own food and make their own clothes like the Pilgrims, or do they want to sponge off others? Did the Pilgrims seek to colonize France and Germany so as to collect entitlements? See, to make this equation, Obama fixates on a morally IRRELEVANT attribute (Pilgrims and fake refugees both want to come to this continent), and ignores relevant differences, like what they each believe and do, because he is a vile pie of dogshit, and he knows his followers are retards who will eagerly slurp up the most feeble rationalization as long as it props up their narrative.

There is a Hollywood blacklist and all participants in that effort would be sure to be on it. By the way, they are making a sure-to-be-hagiographic film about Dalton Trumbo, screenwriter and erstwhile fellow traveler, starring Bryan Cranston of 'Breaking Bad' fame. Any culture that would make a hero out of Dalton Fucking Trumbo yet completely ignore director Theo Van Gogh, who really did pay the price for artistic freedom, is rotten to the core.

Barb there's some work being done now on "retraining" immune systems. The articles I'm seeing relate to diabetes but if it works out there's no reason I can think of it can't apply to other immune disorders.
In theory it could even help in some of those bizarre undiagnosable cases. Fingers crossed, the FDA should approve it in no less than 75 years... Posted by: Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith at November 26, 2015 07:10 PM (bLnSU) 616

well. the turkey is now allegedly "done" after being raw 40 mins ago
wish me luck Posted by: chemjeff @ phone at November 26, 2015 06:55 PM (HSUfi) Whoa. It takes 45 minutes just to cook chicken drumsticks in an oven. There is no way a turkey would be done in that amount of time. Unless it was pre-cooked and you are just reheating? 20 minutes per lb. is the guideline for planning a meal, but must be adjusted for factors such as turkey size, cooking temp, oven efficiency, etc. And generally a cooking thermometer with a probe is the best way to determine if it is "done", shooting for a target temp of 160 to 180, depending on whether you are measuring the light or dark meat and where you place the probe (best place is about 2.5" into the breast, but away from the bone).

P.S. Basting turkey in a mixture of broth/bourbon/butter makes for a very tasty and tender bird.
Posted by: The Thankful Hat at November 26, 2015 07:24 PM (vBeA5) Basting does not affect the turkey, only the skin. And the opening and closing of the oven makes the cooking/roasting process much more problematic. If you want your turkey to retain enough moisture during the cooking process with less fuss and bother, you just need to brine it first. There are many recipes out there, but the one I have used for many years with great success is Alton Brown's. Which makes sense, since he based his recipes on a careful study of the science behind the cooking. Basic principle: use a brine to get salt into your turkey, which causes it to absorb more moisture (and also flavors, when you add some to the brine). Then, when cooking, the turkey releases some of the extra moisture, but not enough to dry out. Note: the salt from a properly prepared brine does not make the turkey taste salty. Here endeth the sermon. Posted by: HTL at November 26, 2015 07:59 PM (SQ8u5) 669

Away from home & family for the first Thanksgiving in a long time. In Minneapolis, for daughter's Irish dance competition. Went to a wonderful steakhouse called Manny's for dinner. Bacon appetizer - 1 & 1/4 inch slabs of bacon perfectly cooked (crispy and charred on the ends). Bone-in filet + 85 day dry-aged, bone-in ribeye. Sautéed mushrooms and truffle fries. All shared among wife and kids. Great service, not stuffy at all. Best steaks I've ever had. Ridiculously flavorful.
