Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Tuesday Overnight Open Thread - March 31, 2026 [Doof]![]() From Moon4pics These kids need to take some lessons from MoMe attendees. Party hard, but leave the place better than you found it! $5 Million Mansion Rented on Airbnb for Small Private Event, Vandalized by 800 Partying Teens When Kishore Karlapudi saw his beautiful mansion in Celina, Texas, rented on Airbnb for a party of seven people, he never imagined it would be invaded and vandalised by hundreds of teenagers looking for a good time. Karlapudi doesn’t live in the mansion himself, but instead rents it out on Airbnb for passive income. He never imagined that he could become the victim of some teenagers looking for a place to stage the mother of all parties. “Somebody booked it, saying they needed the property for a party of seven people,” Kishore Karlapudi told Fox4 News. According to Celina Police Chief John Cullison, that small party of seven swelled to between 500 and 800 people after the event was advertised on social media. On the evening of March 21, police started receiving calls about a massive gathering at the mansion, followed by reports of gunshots being heard on the property. “We started getting the 911 calls with the shots fired. We also got a call that there was 10 men at the front gate, and they had guns, and they were threatening to kill someone. So, this of course amped our officers up just a bit to make sure we go inside and keep everybody safe,” Chief Cullison said. “But it wasn’t until they went inside and they actually realized how vast this party was.”More at the link, including 2 video segments. ----- Did you know there are some snakes that have an internal gauge for their level of poison? You do now! These snakes steal poison from their prey—here's how they know they have enough ![]() Red-necked keelback snakes are highly toxic—mere drops of their pungent yellow poison could blind a mongoose and stop its heart within minutes. But the snakes don’t make that toxin themselves; rather, they steal it from the poisonous toads they eat. After a red-necked keelback (Rhabdophis subminiatus) eats a true toad (a member of the Bufonidae family), the snake’s intestines soak up the toxic bufadienolide molecules from the amphibian’s skin. The toxins are then shuttled into more than a dozen pairs of storage pockets in the snakes’ necks called nuchal glands. Then the snakes act fearless. They rise and jut their necks at mongooses and other would-be predators as if to say, “Go ahead—I dare you.” That brazen attitude doesn’t last, though. If dinner has been nontoxic recently—poison-free frogs or fish, for example—these reptiles often hurriedly slither away.Snakes are equal parts creepy and cool to me. How about you? ----- In the market for a super cool vintage car? Here's one to consider. Son Inherited Dad's 1968 Dodge Coronet R/T, Now Selling Because It Holds Too Many Memories ![]() This Coronet spent almost its entire life with the same man who picked it up from the dealership and drove it home. It remained in the family after his passing, but the son has decided to let it go for a simple reason. It holds too many memories, so someone else must cherish the car now. That's why it's here. This Coronet R/T is looking for a new home, and while it's not a spotless specimen, it's worth knowing the car has never been restored or altered. I would still inspect it personally before making an offer to check if all of these are true, but at first glance, this Coronet just seems to check all these big boxes. Dodge offered a little something to every Coronet buyer in 1968. It started with the Coronet Deluxe, which was the most affordable configuration but also came with a six-cylinder 225 standard. A 273ci V8 unit was optional if buyers wanted a little bit more power. The Coronet 440 also started with a six, but the engine options went all the way up to the 440ci with 375 horsepower. The Coronet 500 was next with a standard 318 and more options, including the popular 383, followed by the almighty R/T. The Coronet R/T was all about the power delivered by its engine and the mix of upgrades inside the cabin, and buyers could choose either the standard 440 or the 426 Hemi. The Hemi was the engine to get if power was the main objective, but it's not a secret that this engine configuration was ridiculously expensive. It featured dual-quad carburetors and delivered 425 horsepower, so some buyers didn’t care and still ordered the engine, no matter the price. This Coronet R/T was and still is equipped with a 440ci V8 engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission.The vehicle is up for online auction. The top bid at the time of writing is $19,100, but it's expected to increase significantly, as the Coronet seems to get impressive attention lately. *** The car is parked in Chicago, Illinois, and if you don't want to pay more for shipping, you should be able to drive it home on its wheels.----- Hope the owner of this wallet isn't a Hordeling. There's math involved for it to be returned!

So we all know who Vinnie Vincent is, right?
Okay, probably not. He played with KISS. He did some guitar work on Creatures Of The Night and was the official lead guitarist on Lick It Up before leaving and doing time albums with his band Vinnie Vincent Invasion. Hasn't done shit since. Apparently he has a "new" (recorded in 1990) album called Guitarmageddon. Wants to sell it for $2 million. No, really. $2,000,000 dollars. American. Or $200,000 dollars per track. I think Vinnie might be a bit on the crazy side. You can find tracks on YT. I listened to part of one and it's...embarrassing. Like really really fucking bad. There's no musicality at all. It's just...awful. Check it out, though, it's worth a laugh. Posted by: Robert at March 31, 2026 10:13 PM (qoyWV) 30

My boss has gone through the tryouts for Jeopardy. Made it past the first round or so.
Posted by: "Perfessor" Squirrel During the last week of senior year in HS, the student council held a kick ass Jeopardy Tournament. It was great fun and lasted the entire week. We had two man teams though. Me and my buddy won the whole enchilada by crushing Final Jeopardy. "Name three of the first class of enshrines of the Baseball HOF." We got to take the rest of the school year off. Big deal - it was noon on our last day. Posted by: Tonypete at March 31, 2026 10:25 PM (cYBz/) 82

My cousin and her husband and new baby lived in an old house on a ranch he was working for in Colfax County, New Mexico. She told him that she could hear mice rustling around in the walls and under the floorboards, so he bought a bunch of traps to put in the crawlspace to get rid of them. He crawled about halfway under the house with the traps and scooted right back out. It wasn't mice. It was a rattlesnake den. They moved out. On the bright side, there weren't any mice.

The lack of a Year Zero with the traditional AD/BC count is a problem for the arithmetic (think Julian date conversions and similar). The standard astronomical dating system sets 1BC as the year 0. So a year of N BC is the year 1 - N. Now, when you do that, the question of when a century (or decade) begins depends on whether you start at 0 or 1, a classic off by 1 type of thing. It depends on just what convention you want to use. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at March 31, 2026 10:27 PM (w6EFb) 92

>> 1 day after your 29th birthday you are in your 30th year. get it ?
But with your birth, you start counting at zero, not one. Your first year you age is 0. You don't turn 1 until 1 year after your birth. Your age is the number of integer years you've attained. With the AD/BC system, there is no Year 0. This would be as if you counted your age as 1 when you were born. The Romans, with their inclusive counting system, probably thought of things this way.

After a red-necked keelback (Rhabdophis subminiatus) eats a true toad (a member of the Bufonidae family), the snake’s intestines soak up the toxic bufadienolide molecules from the amphibian’s skin. The toxins are then shuttled into more than a dozen pairs of storage pockets in the snakes’ necks called nuchal glands.
Stealing your food's poison is cool and all, but how about stealing the entire venom-delivery system? Blue sea dragons, a type of sea slug, eat Portuguese man-o-war. They keep entire nematocysts for self-defense..... venom, stinger, everything. They also look like real-life Pokemon, or something an AI dreamed up. https://is.gd/CHS7pZ Posted by: mikeski at March 31, 2026 10:34 PM (VHUov) Posted by: NaCly Dog at March 31, 2026 10:34 PM (u82oZ) 120

For those of you saying there was no year zero, you are wrong. We are numbering the years, not naming them. Here's why:
We base our calendar, for right or wrong, off the birth of Christ. If you were born on December 25, 1997 (because you're obviously 29), how many years old were you on December 28, 1997? None. Zero years old. On December 28, 0000 Jesus was zero years old. (Yes, I get the whole arbitrary birth date argument). From December 25, 0000 until December 24, 0000, Jesus was zero years old. On December 25, 0001, Jesus was 1 year old. There was, in fact, a year zero. Centuries begin on the zeros. Posted by: Baron Munchausen at March 31, 2026 10:42 PM (C1NyB) 145

When Christ was born is not known. There are a lot of theories, and some interesting astronomical alignments (the meaning of the Star of Bethlehem, just what was it).

"In fact, I was probably walking around in the year 2000 thinking all, 'We're in the 21st century now, woo-woo' and we weren't."
I was more concerned about the Year Zero bug, and all the work we had had to do to fix it. When the world didn't come to an end on 01/01/2000 00:00:00 GMT, I didn't give a damn what century I was in. Still, I remember the debates over when the third millenium began. Some people got really bent out of shape over it. My feeling is, beginning a century on the zero year is OK, if you accept that the first century AD had only 99 years. Since nobody from that time is still around to complain -- and in fact, nobody from that time had any idea they were living in the first century, since the BC/AD system of numbering years was devised a few centuries later -- I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. That being said, when a question like that comes up on a quiz, it's best to avoid the obvious answer.

Same show, same type of answer. For Final Jeopardy, the answer was “the year the last presidential election of the 20th Century will take place”. All three contestants said “What is 1996?” Of course “What is 2000?” was correct.

What’s cool about snakes, I do believe there is some pre-installed software in human brains that helps identify them. Their camouflage is excellent, and it can be difficult to see them.
The reason I say this, I was hiking in the desert scrub brush near the Colorado and I “saw” this fricking huuuge diamond back before it consciously registered. It wasn’t there, and then it dissolved into a coiled snake, like a reverse hallucination. It didn’t move a millimeter, but I sure did. Posted by: Common Tater at March 31, 2026 10:47 PM (O5ohZ) 161

I continue to be annoyed by the Jeopardy question.
It's been a long and annoying day except for seeing our grandchildren to give them their Easter stuff. They are going on a cruise and leaving Friday. We could go on the cruise, too, but don't think we'd like the cruise life. I know for sure the plumbing would go out and everyone would get Norovirus if we went. So we say bon voyage and miss them instead. It's the Norwegian line vs the Congo/Swahili line of Carnival. I also don't want to be on a ship with 3k people I don't know. There are a lot of reasons, but son, DIL and kids love it. Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at March 31, 2026 10:49 PM (WONhk) 166

Early on in my insane wife's journey into psychopathy we had moved into a new house with a crawl space.
She called me up at work convinced there was a "ball o' rattlers" rolling around in the crawl space. she was hysterical. I told her to call an extermination company and have them come in and look for them. When I got home all the windows in the house were open and she had her car with a shop vac hose hooked up to her exhaust and running into one of the crawl space vents. One of the guys that she used to work with suggested it as a joke thinking she would see he was putting her on. Next big mistake, she took him seriously. Place smelled like a bus station for a week.

144 For those of you saying there was no year zero, you are wrong. We are numbering the years, not naming them. Here's why:
We base our calendar, for right or wrong, off the birth of Christ. If you were born on December 25, 1997 (because you're obviously 29), how many years old were you on December 28, 1997? None. Zero years old. On December 28, 0000 Jesus was zero years old. (Yes, I get the whole arbitrary birth date argument). From December 25, 0000 until December 24, 0000, Jesus was zero years old. On December 25, 0001, Jesus was 1 year old. There was, in fact, a year zero. Centuries begin on the zeros. Posted by: Baron Munchausen at March 31, 2026 10:42 PM (C1NyB) We don’t even know the year Jesus was born. Kinda destroys the argument. Take a stack of pennies. When you put the first one down, is that zero, or one? Posted by: Cow Demon at March 31, 2026 10:54 PM (hJH5n) 183

An interesting thing about counting starting with 1.
I knew an atheist who insisted Jesus was wrong when he said he would rise on the third day, because he counted Crucifixion Friday as day zero. No matter how folks tried to explain that Friday was Day 1, Saturday was day 2, and Resurrection Sunday was the third day, he insisted on his numbering system. I think I'll wander off for a while. I think the stupidity from the Jeopardy contestants is infectious. Like that woman who agreed we need to pay more attention to the Gays of Hormuth. BBL, probably.

Its not really a trick question. It isnt even a math question. ts a logic question. Its counting up the centuries, not marking a particular numerical pattern. My problem with the question is that its like all questions on Jeopardy. What they call the question is the answer and what they call the answer is the question. Even Trebek slipped up on the games terminology here because of that. Its about ten percent of why Wheel of Fortune is the better show.

208 Your pennies argument is not valid. See my comment about when you are born: for the first 364 days, you are not one year old. The calendar counts YEARS. For right or wrong, or calendar is based on the BIRTH of Christ; not starting after h e was a year old (December 25, 0001, theoretically).
Posted by: Baron Munchausen at March 31, 2026 11:04 PM (C1NyB) Being dismissive gets you nowhere. Bet your accountant loves you. Years and pennies are the same as they are things. You don’t get to change math and logic because you want to count something differently. On my first birthday, it was such because I completed my first set of 365 days and when I completed the second set, I turned 2, and so on. It’s not hard; you just want to reinvent math because “years are different” when, well, they are not. Next you will try to convince me you can in fact divide by zero.

There was no zero in Western numbering until the Crusades, long after the establishment of the calendar. No year zero has been a bugaboo for dendrochronology and absolute dating of specific events, like the eruption of Thera Posted by: Kindltot at March 31, 2026 11:11 PM (rbvCR) 236

You "year zero" folks really should do some research on the Gregorian Calendar and the Julian Calendar.

Say you are 29. 1 day after your 29th birthday you are in your 30th year. get it ?
Posted by: runner I thought there was a statutory-rape court case based on this, but a quick DDGing didn't find it. Apocryphally, a guy slept with a girl on the day before her 18th birthday, and argued she was "18 years old" and thus legal at that point. On the day before your Xth birthday, you've lived in 365.26-times-X days, which is 1-times-X years. So on the day before your 18th birthday, you've "lived 18 years" and are 18 years old. And you're actually 18-years-and-a-day old on your 18th birthday. I suppose a case like that really just shows that "the law is an ass," in that drawing any line where "you have personal agency only after this date" means there's a nanosecond where you don't have agency, followed by a nanosecond where you do. And your nerves don't fire fast enough for there to have been any change between those two nanoseconds. Nevermind the idea that even a full day would change a person that much. And it doesn't matter if it's having sex, signing a contract, driving a car, getting a job, or whatever "agency" you're gaining. But laws like that have to exist, so they do.

>> for the first 364 days, you are not one year old.
That's the way we count age. You start at zero. You are not 1 year old until 1 year has passed since your birth. The AD system does not work this way. It starts at 1. This is equivalent to saying you are 1 year old at you birth. The former counts the whole number of years of your age. The latter counts which year of your life you are in. The AD/BC sequence goes like this: ...2 BC, 1BC, 1AD, 2 AD.... There is no year zero. As I mentioned above the standard Astronomical year convention is to use 1BC as the year zero. 2BC is thus -1, 3BC is -2, etc. It makes the arithmetic work out much nicer when converting between calendar dates and counts of days since epoch (or seconds or whatever).

That is the wrinkle in the astronomical calendar year system. Now, you could use proleptic Gregorian all the way back to time immemorial, but that would mess up historical dates before the Gregorian went into effect. Now, many countries didn't adopt it until much later (looking at you Great Britain). So they decided to used proleptic Julian before Oct 15, 1582, and Gregorian thereafter. That puts a nasty little discontinuity in there of 10 dates that don't exist. But there's no way around this really.

The 21st century question came up when we were working to prevent the Y2K problem.
This was different from the century problem. It was a pattern problem. Programmers were using the final two digits of the 1900s to indicate what part of the 1900s the date was in. When the first two digits failed to be 19, this pattern failed. Perl had the most interesting and passive aggressive way of handling this. The languages designers redefined the pattern to be math instead. So that the built in year value went from 99 to 100 rather than from 99 to 00. Which meant that code assuming the original pattern would start showing up as 19100 instead of 1900. Posted by: Stephen Price Blair at March 31, 2026 11:27 PM (EXyHK) 280

400 year Gregorian cycle. This estimates the tropical year as 365.2425 mean solar days. Julian estimated it 365 1/4. Even then, the Hellenistic astronomer who worked out the Julian calendar, Sosigenes of Alexandria, knew that was off a smidge, but figured it was good enough for govt. work. AS of epoch J2000 the tropical year was 365.24217 mean solar days. That's 365.2421897 ephemeris days. And the tropical year, on this leg of the current Milankovitch cycle is getting slightly short, and day is getting longer long term. The Gregorian will be off by one day seasonally a little before expected if that all remained constant. We don't have to worry about until around the year 4000 or so.

Unlike Omega Man, Last Man on Earth focuses far more on the panic over the virus coming from the Far East. Posted by: Stephen Price Blair at March 31, 2026 11:35 PM ( ----- Haven't seen LMoE.

I also want to know why tomato paste doesn't come in a tube vs a can. The recipe always calls for 1-2TBS and then toss the can. Ok, never mind, says Gilda Radner. Apparently you can buy it in a tube and I will notify the man I live with of this exciting find later!!!
My husband has mocked me in the past for saving and freezing the remander of tomato paste. Now I currently don't care. Sometimes I also don't recycle stuff I could. Because. Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at March 31, 2026 11:40 PM (WONhk) 312

You could use tomato sauce instead of paste. Just remove some water from the recipe. You are just looking for the right amount of tomato solids.

I was just reviewing the history of the AD system. It was devised by a monk named Dionysius Exiguus in what we call the year 525 AD. The Julian calendar was being used, but the year number was based on the Diocletian era numbering. He was working out a revised method of Easter computations, and reckoned that was the 525th year since the birth of Christ. He didn't really explain how he came up with that. Note how neat it made leap years numbers work out, evenly divisible by 4. This is equivalent to making 1BC a leap year, and then 4 AD. There is no evidence he did this on purpose, really, and it could be a happy coincidence. Imagine how complicated it would be if there were an offset.

May as well buy the little cans of tomato paste, ChristyBlinky: the tubes cost 3-5 times as much for lesser quantity of paste. Depends how much you use, I guess.

I have just met with various Political Representatives of the tragedy that took place in California concerning the burning of thousands of once beautiful homes.
It was brought to my attention that the Insurance Companies, in particular, State Farm, have been absolutely horrible to people that have been paying them large Premiums for years, only to find that when tragedy struck, these horrendous Companies were not there to help! I have asked the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Lee Zeldin, to give me a list of the Companies who acted swiftly, courageously, and bravely in order to make their clients happy and, even more importantly, in order to fulfill their Legal obligations. Likewise, I have asked to see those Companies that were particularly bad. The names of some surprise me, but in the World in which we live, nothing really surprises me! State Farm, and others, should get their act together, and treat people fairly. The Government is looking into this matter as we speak! President DONALD J.

>> Now do the event in October 1582 when Pope Gregory XIII dropped ten days out of the calendar
That was to correct the seasonal drift in the Julian calendar to make the mean equinox fall on Mar. 21 (this date is the official ecclesiastical equinox for Easter purposes, not the actual astronomical event). The Julian calendar overestimates the tropical year, and the drift works out to about 3 days per 400 years. The equinox had drifted about 10 days earlier by that time. And note they were correcting it back to the equinox of the First Council of Nicaea (325 AD), not all the way back to the start of the Julian calendar -- this has caused some confusion.

Posted by: Anonymous Rogue in Kalifornistan (ARiK) at April 01, 2026 12:01 AM (QGaXH) Polyethylene, which makes up the vast bulk of throwaway plastics, is just carbon and hydrogen. In free air, it burns sooty because it consumes all the oxygen in the air immediately in contact with the burning surface. Fuel oil burns sooty for the same reason. Burn it in a closed vessels, with forced air, and it burns clean. The plastic you don't want to burn is PVC (vinyl) because it contains chlorine, and burning releases choking phosgene gas, COCl2, which is nasty. But an incinerator equipped with heavy-duty scrubbers should handle it. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at April 01, 2026 12:14 AM (2JFBE) 361

Well on a lesser note, I bought another harley today, because I'm a retard and need a frigging lobotomy. Mrs B was no help at all, nooooo evil enabler she is. To be fair, its a kinda rare bird, I wanted one for 30 years, they were pretty pricey new and still commands stupid money compared to regular used harleys which are cheap right now, but this one had fire sale pricing with really low miles on it, and its clean. Nothing is wrong with it, I crawled up its ass with a microscope, and its perfect. It just needs tires because they are old. I never saw one this cheap. I couldn't pass it up.
Posted by: Berserker-Dragonheads Division at April 01, 2026 12:26 AM (snZF9) Congrats on your purchase. I know Jack about Harleys. But Mrs Bers is your treasure. It was nice meeting her in Corsicana. Posted by: BarelyScaryMary at April 01, 2026 12:37 AM (syAfa) 382

Speaking of equinoxes and calendars and Easter. Today, April 1, is the full moon, the first full Moon of astronomical spring. In the Injun moon naming system, which we colonists culturally appropriated (and made logical), this is the Pink Moon. It's also the Paschal Moon, the one that sets the date of Easter. Passover also begins. Besides correcting the solar part, the Gregorian reform also corrected the lunar calendar, so the calculated full Moon corresponds to the astronomical one pretty closely, and will for some time. The Orthodox churches still use the Julian calendar and the older lunar calendar. The full Moon there has drifted a few days from the astronomical event.

Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at April 01, 2026 12:42 AM (2JFBE) Its a heritage springer softail. I don't think they made a lot of them, because you never really see them. They are the closest thing styling wise to a 1948 panhead. Put it this way, I only ever saw one in the shop. Seen some on the road here and there over the years, but only had one come in the shop. I worked on 3 since the late 90's. I have a regular springer softail, but they are more like what a chopped panhead would look like with the 21" front wheel and smaller fenders. The heritage springer has real old world styling with the full fenders and fatter front tire. The springer front end just looks great. They stopped making springer softails in 2006.

Posted by: Dark Litigator at April 01, 2026 12:41 AM (KAi1n) The trick to get that tone is use older non master volume marshal amps and plug into the low input and use a boss overdrive pedal. Or use a 2203 100 watt, or 2204 50 watt master model with the over drive. Priest used the old 4 input non master volume heads. Thats how they did it.

Wandering back in and unlurking to say hello and goodnight (your latitude depending).
It's now April 1 here in the World's Finest Time Zone (albeit Daylight Saving adjusted). Call it 11pm instead. Thirty-two years ago, as the clock turned over from March to April, our little family of five completed our journey in the old Suburban, moving from Chicago to Oklahoma, where we began our new life. It was a rough transition, preceded and followed by some less-than-optimal choices, but we've never regretted leaving the Windy City behind. It was MiladyJo's birthplace; she had family there (now almost all gone or like us moved away) and with her family's support and her city wisdom, we had a pretty good fourteen years there, but the kids were becoming teens and it was 'way past time to go rural and red state. Lots of changes in 32 years, but still happy to be here. Posted by: mindful webworker - Oklahoma Heaven at April 01, 2026 01:15 AM (jrd4M) 415

So, what was the first day of the first century?
Nada, this calendar did not exist then. Which kind of suggests that the trivia question is BS too. The first day of the first century was January 1 in the first year of our Lord, i.e. 1 AD, when Jesus was possibly about four years old (the start of the Christian Era was misdated by as much as 4 years). This is true whether or not anyone knew it or not. It is like saying Solomon’s Temple fell in 586 BC. How did they know it was BC? They didn’t, but that is when it fell.

I was just looking at the Artemis countdown timeline. NASA will stream this on their Youtube channel. Other streamers will likely being doing their feeds as well. Anyway, the main broadcast beings at 12:50 PM. Tanking operations, if they're a go, will start around 7:45AM, and they may stream some of that, but it will be boring, unless something explodes. Crew will head to the pad around 1:45PM. Blastoff will be at 6:45PM. Well, that's the scheduled time. There will be a delay, I'm sure. Launch window is 2 hours, so they've got until 8:45PM.

Then there's the old watermelon and vodka trick. Cut a hole the size of a liter bottle neck in the melon, stick the uncapped bottle in there until it drains completely. Let it set for about half an hour, giving it a few rolls to mix things up. Serve.

He was right. Posted by: Diogenes I never gambled much but I won when I went to the horse track betting on straight win place and show tickets. All well less than $50 bucks. Horse racing was the only time I spent an afternoon winning consistently (hit eight out of 12 races in the money). And $2 buck tickets added up to less than $25 dollars for twelve races. Probably won about double the amount I bet that day. Vegas on a TDY to Nellis AFB, I lost about thirty bucks--a bit on slots, a bit on black jack, a bit on roulette back in the early 90's. Enough to say I did it. Dog track I would go with friends, get a few beers, and spend about $20 bucks for an evening including refreshments. Rarely won on those two buck tickets. Never been cared enough anymore to gamble after my youth. Posted by: whig at March 31, 2026 08:13 PM (E4rtv) 70

Skittles Kittleson did link one good point:
Spain's shift to "renewable" or "clean" energy has meant that its energy prices ain't so bad. Because they don't rely on Gulf LNG like a lot of Europe. Their energy bills might be high, but they won't be shockingly high. Also Spain has a lot of empty land with sunlight; it's comparable to the high plains of the US. Solar makes sense there, maybe wind too. Not Germany so much. This explains why Spain doesn't care about the war and is free to thumb its nose at the US. Also maybe explains why Trump is shaming Britain and France to step up (and probably should shame Germany), and can't touch Spain.

because Spain hadn't invested in battery power storage is my guess.
Gas powered turbines have "momentum", so when they run out of fuel they take awhile to spin down. If the solar is out and there isn't spare battery power, the power goes out right away. to answer Kindltot. Same happened in Texas under Abbott (TX got better).

Posted by: gKWVE For a more sobering appraisal, "Spain's solar sector faces a dual crisis of oversupply and grid instability, characterized by severe economic losses for developers and a catastrophic grid failure in April 2025. Overproduction has driven wholesale electricity prices to zero or negative levels for significant portions of the day, causing project valuations to plummet from €200,000 to as low as €28,000 per megawatt. Simultaneously, the April 28, 2025 blackout, which plunged 55 million people in Spain and Portugal into darkness, exposed vulnerabilities in the grid's ability to handle high renewable penetration without sufficient inertia." Posted by: whig at March 31, 2026 08:42 PM (E4rtv) 122
Continued, source Brave AI
Key issues driving these problems include: Grid Inertia Deficit: The heavy reliance on solar and wind, which use grid-following inverters, left the system without the physical inertia needed to stabilize frequency, causing cascading failures when generation was lost. Curtailment and Financial Loss: Grid operator Red Eléctrica has issued curtailment orders to shut down solar plants during peak production, often without compensation, while limited export capacity to France prevents the surplus from being sold abroad. Regulatory and Bureaucratic Barriers: Slow permitting processes and a lack of regulated markets for ancillary services like voltage control have stalled the deployment of necessary battery storage, which is critical for managing the energy glut. Legacy Policy Risks: The industry still grapples with the long-term impact of the "sun tax" and retroactive subsidy cuts from the 2008-2012 era, which created lasting distrust among investors and homeowners. While the government aims to double solar capacity to 76GW by 2030, the sector is currently in a "freefall" with a forecasted slowdown in new projects for 2026.

We hiked to a waterfall that was cool. Went 24 hrs without seeing another soul. Campsite 2 on the West Rim trail is pretty awesome. The West Rim trail hike was great.

121 This explains why Spain doesn't care about the war and is free to thumb its nose at the US. Also maybe explains why Trump is shaming Britain and France to step up (and probably should shame Germany), and can't touch Spain.
Posted by: gKWVE For a more sobering appraisal, "Spain's solar sector faces a dual crisis of oversupply and grid instability, characterized by severe economic losses for developers and a catastrophic grid failure in April 2025. Overproduction has driven wholesale electricity prices to zero or negative levels for significant portions of the day, causing project valuations to plummet from €200,000 to as low as €28,000 per megawatt. Simultaneously, the April 28, 2025 blackout, which plunged 55 million people in Spain and Portugal into darkness, exposed vulnerabilities in the grid's ability to handle high renewable penetration without sufficient inertia."

92 Skittles Kittleson did link one good point:
Spain's shift to "renewable" or "clean" energy has meant that its energy prices ain't so bad. Because they don't rely on Gulf LNG like a lot of Europe. Their energy bills might be high, but they won't be shockingly high. Also Spain has a lot of empty land with sunlight; it's comparable to the high plains of the US. Solar makes sense there, maybe wind too. Not Germany so much. This explains why Spain doesn't care about the war and is free to thumb its nose at the US. Also maybe explains why Trump is shaming Britain and France to step up (and probably should shame Germany), and can't touch Spain.

I was going to guess muslim maintenance crews and it was allah's will.
Posted by: Stateless Grid instability caused (you see this on a small scale as well in installs if one part of the solar array is generating more power than another part (shaded, dirty, whatever), the whole system then defaults (unless you have micro inverters for every several panels) to a lower energy output. In a large grid, variable power supplies like solar or wind need substantial backup to keep the grid stable, avoid voltage spikes or sags, and to keep the frequency (50 hz IRRC in Euroland) from deviating. That means you need power sources that can spin up immediately when the power from variable sources start dropping (and some means of dumping excess power which is a bit easier). That means usually natural gas generators as battery storage is insufficient in Spain at this time to do it. Nukes, coal, and I think oil, generators take a fair chunk of time to come online.

Posted by: Cow Demon ====== Dunno. I think the French themselves have not been building much and the Germans now are a big customer of French nuke power after shutting down their own and cutting off their gas supplies from Russki land. I think large arrays of either solar or wind are a mistake versus smaller scale backup units at homes where it could serve as redundancy for the main grid without causing as much problems with instability.

The following is a spoiler but it's so old I'm making the command decision a spoiler is ok. So in Crichton's book of the same name that it was based on at the end he uses the neat literary device of the untrustworthy narrator. Based on how the end is narrated and the dialog between the main characters coming up to the surface you know that the chick character has accessed the sphere and is now controlling everything, every aspect of reality. Everything on earth, humanity, all of that portion of the universe is now screwed. Because the woman is mental. And really, no one could have that ability and not screw everything up. But definitely not her. But the movie erases all of that. At the end of the movie it's all great, no one has the power, lets just tie it all up with a nice little bow. - FIN - Posted by: banana Dream at March 31, 2026 09:00 PM (3uBP9) 143

Now the end of the Sphere movie would make since if you read the book in a sort of half assed meta way. The writing of the ending of the movie was actually controlled by the chick's power, and so you the viewer don't even know. Unless you read the book. Reading is a power that trumps the Sphere power? That would be neat. But I think the screenwriters, directors, producers were just lazy and I'm sure Crichton liked the money.

One time my daughter and I hiked up the trail past Lake Louise in Banff. At the beginning, next to the lake where the trail is a paved path, was a group of people learning ropes to descend a cliff. Novices and trainers I'm guessing. One guy was in trouble about 40 feet up, and was starting to shout. Maybe his strength was failing and he thought he was going to fall. I felt kind of bad for the guy. I don't know how they got him down, I assume there is some obvious or established way of doing that.

For the few people in here who arent gun people, one of the big points of the Glock is that barring some drastic malfunction of the gun, it WILL NOT fire unless you pull the trigger, which also has a trigger safety.

Wanting to improve the debugging experience for the team, I decided to include source maps in the release. This resulted in our entire internal codebase being publicly exposed including thousands of files with every agent command, all system prompts, the complete query engine, Undercover Mode, Bypass Permissions Mode, and our internal telemetry configuration. I take full responsibility. I genuinely believed the safeguards Claude Code had built for me would be adequate and it was a serious miscalculation on my part. My actions have unintentionally open-sourced major parts of Claude’s architecture well ahead of schedule.

Wanting to improve the debugging experience for the team, I decided to include source maps in the release. This resulted in our entire internal codebase being publicly exposed including thousands of files with every agent command, all system prompts, the complete query engine, Undercover Mode, Bypass Permissions Mode, and our internal telemetry configuration.

Sometimes I think there's a tendency to think Trump is some kind of actor or cartoon figure because of his personality. To be honest, I didn't he was really serious when he first entered the race in 2015. I was wrong on that one. Bigly. And then they decided to crush him and everyone around him. Then they stole his reelection. Then they tried to throw him in prison and bankrupt him. Then they tried to kill him. Twice. He knows better than we do what the stakes are and more importantly what the situation is in Iran right now. And all he does every single day is fight. Why would anyone think, yep, he's right on the verge of victory so this is exactly when he's going to blow it? Besides, he's turned Hegseth into a machine and he's got to keep feeding him.

Posted by: JackStraw at March 31, 2026 09:58 PM (viF8m) Yeah, but he needs to be careful with that, too. Our military is nowhere near what it was even in the 1990s from a personnel standpoint, we have a lot of aging platforms that will need to be replaced, the ones we do have are WAY too small in number for the demand placed on them, and the reality is that we really need to get serious about ramping up our drone warfare capabilities. You still need a mixed force (a big reason the war in Ukraine is mostly a stalemate is because neither side has air superiority), but we have a whole generation of Zoomers that grew up with dual stick video game controllers in their hands. Do a deal with Zelensky to provide him with Patriots in exchange for drones, and we can get moving on that. And lets get real, Ukraine is proving itself to be FAR more capable of being a decent ally than western Europe right now. They're fighting a brutal four-year war and STILL sent dozens of advisors and equipment to the Middle East to fight back against Iran's drones.

Fun Fact! Kobolds had the gremlin job in old German iron mines. They would leave poisonous caltrops around the mines for the miners to step on and get sick.
Later the blue metal that was killing the clumsier miners was isolated and named "cobalt" in their "honor". I've been down some pre-1875 mines here and there. Safety standards were nonexistent. Nobody was sweeping the floors of sharp dangerous rubble. And miners tended to be broke-ass sons of bitches, "going down pit" was considered a last resort for people with no income.

Note that Artemis II is a not-quite Apollo 8 mission. Because the SLS is the biggest boondoggle NASA has ever done, which is saying something, the current SLS configuration doesn't have the delta-v/fuel margin to put Orion into lunar orbit and get out and back to earth. So, it's just going to be a free-return figure 8 flyby. They will go "higher" (farther beyond the Moon) that any Apollo mission did, so they'll set the record for greatest distance humans have been from earth. The return leg will also hit geocentric velocity of a smidge over 25K mph, and beat Apollo 10's return speed record by a little bit as well. And that's about it.

>> Well worth the, presumably, tens of billions of dollars spent.
$93B for the whole thing, SLS and Orion through 2025. And that doesn't include other parts of the boondoggle. The SLS was going to be upgraded to a more powerful second stage. Isaacman has cancelled that, because it wasn't going anywhere, delays and cost overruns. Now, that upgraded SLS (Dubbed Block 1B and Block 2) was going to need a bigger mobile launcher. Bechtel got the contract for that back in 2019 or sometime. Original cost was to be about $380M and it was supposed to be completed by 2023 or something. Well, as of now, it ain't nowhere near completion, projected cost his $2.7B, and it wouldn't be ready until 2029 at least..... Isaacman put that out of its misery as well.

Note that Artemis II is a not-quite Apollo 8 mission. Because the SLS is the biggest boondoggle NASA has ever done, which is saying something, the current SLS configuration doesn't have the delta-v/fuel margin to put Orion into lunar orbit and get out and back to earth. So, it's just going to be a free-return figure 8 flyby. They will go "higher" (farther beyond the Moon) that any Apollo mission did, so they'll set the record for greatest distance humans have been from earth. The return leg will also hit geocentric velocity of a smidge over 25K mph, and beat Apollo 10's return speed record by a little bit as well. And that's about it.

Apollo 8 was something of a lark as well. Such a CSM only lunar orbit mission wasn't originally planned. Trouble was, there were big delays with the lunar module, and the CSM was ready well before the LM would be, and that messed up the planned mission profiles. Somebody his on the idea of a lunar orbit, and it was a hit, giving the famous Earthrise photo, probably one of the most iconic of the Apollo era. They penciled Apollo 8 as a "C-prime" mission, something they just made up on the fly. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at March 31, 2026 07:04 PM (w6EFb) 121

169 Not having handled a Glock with a weapons light, how is the light activated?
Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon Paddle Switch on the back of the unit and the rails are pretty much universal other than length. Obviously smaller units fit compact guns, etc. Usually a flip down or up bilateral switches or on cheaper/inferior units, a button that you press. Ideally, you want one that will activate and turn off with gross movements, thus a paddle type switch rather than some button you have to press just so.

One quibble with Darth Santis. I don't like the use of the word "tragedy" in cases like this, because to me it suggests lack of human agency. A tornado destroying a wide swathe of homes and killing people in the process, or a multi-car pileup with fatalities because of ice and fog, or a passenger ship sinking in a typhoon are tragedies, but are accidental or acts of God. Targeting a five year old and murdering her is a deliberate evil act. I think monstrosity or atrocity is more fitting. "Tragedy" just seems too passive.

The Israeli government is about to pass a law mandating the death penalty, only for Palestinian prisoners. Mass execution by hanging, solely on racial lines.

But cameras accessible through a smartphone help lessen false alarms and keep monkey temptation to go and look at a minimum. Also have a perimeter alarm system with motion detectors/glass breakage for areas I or my wife don't frequent at night. Also holing up in place can allow access to the big artillery rather than a handgun. Shotguns or rifles end the fight quickly versus a relatively underpowered handgun. Easy to point and aim as well. Clearing a house with such though is something for people that practice it regularly in teams as too easy to get your weapon taken from you doing it yourself.

That's what Issacman is doing. Artemis III was supposed to be actual landing mission. No more. It's going to be an Apollo 9 style test in earth orbit. If Starship HLS is ready, they will launch everything into earth orbit around 2027, and test docking and all that. Elon is also supposed to do an unmanned landing test of HLS on the Moon in 2027 as well. Since SpaceX is private, they don't have to publicize their progress too much, so I really have no clue how well those HLS plans are going.

Not enough. Not nearly enough. These judges need to killed
Posted by: JoshO at April 01, 2026 12:25 AM (xL2KH) Supreme Court Rules That Free Speech Still Exists; Ketanji Brown Jackson Doesn't UnderstandThis should have been a 9-0 unanimous decision. It has been the rule of the land since the founding of the Republic that the Constitution's stricture against passing "any law" limiting speech meant that no government, federal or state, could impose "viewpoint" restrictions on speech -- disfavoring or even criminalizing a specific view, argument, or belief. Now, the Court long recognized that governments may impose "time, place, and manner" restrictions, especially on public gatherings and marches. For example, you can permit a march from 1pm to 3pm, so that the march does not interfere with rush hour traffic. You can tell the marchers they cannot walk in front of active garage entrances. You can tell the marchers they must be orderly and cannot use bullhorns that boost noise above, say, 100 decibels. That kind of thing. But you cannot -- absolutely cannot -- pass a law or deny a permit to march based on your agreement with or disagreement with the speaker's speech. You can regulate speech as far as the time, place, and manner in which it is spoken, but you absolutely cannot regulate what that speech can say. This was the rule controlling government regulation of free speech for 250 years, completely agreed to by all Supreme Court judges. Yes, lefty judges would of course put their thumbs on the scale and claim that some limits on speech they don't like -- like protesting outside abortion clinics -- were fair restrictions regarding "place" rather than viewpoint-based restrictions on pro-lifers, but everyone agreed on the framework for analyzing these cases. Until today. Gentlemen, you asked for a radical incompetent. I give you K. B. J. The Court was nearly unanimous that Colorado cannot ban a therapist from counseling a patient to try to change his sexual orientation. Even "Wise Latina" Sotormayor joined the majority. Obama's Obamacare advisor, who cast a decisive vote on Obamacare, Elena Kagan joined the opinion. But DEI Justice KBJ cast another lonely dissent, essentially repudiating 250 years of jurisprudence on free speech and declaring that sometimes, if the government really really really doesn't like speech and that speech is DoublePlus UnGood and Conservative, it can in fact ban speech based on what viewpoint it advances.Ketanji Brown Jackson has now flipped completely on this question: In an earlier case, she argued that the state had zero power to ban transgender procedures for minors. The state just didn't have the power to intrude into medical advice and treatment, she proclaimed. Now she takes the exact opposite position -- the state has All the Power to outlaw whatever medical advice it dislikes -- based not on law, precedent, or logic, but based simply on her leftwing extremist political bias that whatever gays and transgenders want, they should get, period, the law be damned.
Let me make an analogy, which illustrates the trajectory of the left. The leftwing propaganda media used to pretend. The leftwing propaganda media plainly favored Democrats -- and plainly favored Democrat constituent blocs like criminals, welfare recipients, women, transgenders, black and "brown" people, and Muslims -- but pretended to be applying neutral "rules" in its news coverage. They didn't intend to favor these groups out of political loyalty, you see, it was just that these completely neutral "rules" compelled them to cover these stories in this way. Now that was always a lie, because there are many contradictory "rules" they can apply in any case, and they choose which of these contradictory rules to apply according to their political bias. And then they deny the bias, lying that a "rule" forced their hand, without admitting that they chose that "rule" precisely because it would result in the outcome they desired. They are too cowardly and dishonest to admit they are simply political operators, so they used to spend a lot of time spamming out perfectly-disingenuous reasons why every single "journalistic" free choice they made just happened to favor the Democrat Party and its constituent blocks. The truth has a leftwing bias, they began saying at the end of the Age of Pretending, before they transitioned to just blatantly promoting the interests of Democrats and Democrat-favored constituent blocs. It began under GWB, with influential Democrats decrying "both sides" and "balanced" coverage, urging "journalists" to just proclaim One Side Is Right and One Side Is Evil, which, of course, they ultimately did. Now they just openly favor and cheerlead the Democrat Party and its constituent blocs, and openly smear Republicans and their constituent blocs (especially white people, males, straight men, and Christians) without any excuse or justification or any pretense whatsoever that they are applying neutral "rules" independent of their own partisan political agenda. Very, very similarly: Leftwing judges used to pretend that they weren't deliberately and consciously favoring Democrats and Democrat constituent blocs but were instead merely applying neutral "rules" that dictated their decisions. True enough, this was all a lie -- just as it was with the media -- and they would choose which supposedly neutral rule would apply in each case to favor the parties they went into the case favoring. But still, they did pretend. They would blatantly mis-characterize and mis-categorize parties in a dispute to elevate the party they politically favored and disadvantaged the party they disfavored, but still, they pretended to be working within a legal framework of analysis. But Ketanji Brown Jackson now does what leftwing "journalists" did before her -- she decides that all of this talk of "rules-based" decisionmaking is just a game that favors the Bad People, so the Good People should just throw out all rules and do what leftists have been doing forever anyway, just ruling in favor of the left's favored constituent groups and ignoring laws and logic to get to whatever outcome the leftists' "conscience" dictates. Yes, she's stupid, and yes, she's chosen this theory of jurisprudence precisely because it rejects intellectual analysis and says "Just do whatever is in your stupid, corrupt communist heart." But she is NOT an aberration. This is where the entire left is now, and all of the absurd decisions you see coming from leftwing judges are following this same theory of jurisprudence, that explicitly puts particular people -- politically favored people -- over principle, and political outcomes over logic and coherence. No longer are we a nation of "laws not men." We are now a nation of particular "men" with specific Favored Identity Points, and the law must always be corrupted, distorted, perverted and twisted to deliver the outcomes favored by those with those Favored Identity Points. And they're not even pretending to work within a system of objective rules any longer. Update: Gorsuch mocked Justice DEI for claiming she wasn't really restricting the therapist's speech because she was allowed to sometimes speak or even "write papers."

The issue I have is that this case should have never gotten close to SCOTUS. It was such a slam dunk lower courts should have stopped this case from going anywhere near SCOTUS and I can't believe that the liberals kept pursuing it.
It is now settled case law and can be cited on any number of other issues semi related to this one. Posted by: Mister Scott (Formerly GWS) at March 31, 2026 05:36 PM (0N4FZ) 7

I wonder if Gorsuch released the case today (he'd have some wiggle room as the majority's author) because he realizes he created a monster with his earlier decision treating sexual orientation as being a protected class. One the one hand, he's always been consistent about supporting religious liberty, on the other, he's never seemed that interested in yanking the trannies' chains until now, and the choice of date (if not accidental) seems like a hell of a troll.

A plaintiff seeking a temporary injunction is not automatically responsible for all losses incurred by the defendant. Liability is generally limited to the amount of the bond/security posted, which is intended to cover any such losses if the injunction is later found improper. Posting the bond ensures that the plaintiff’s request for equitable relief does not unfairly burden the defendant financially while the court considers the merits of the case.

Does this type ruling give teachers the "right" to groom "Their Children", just helping them find their inner gender dysphoria?

The facts of this case are confusing and the snippets of reporting don’t seem to understand what the case was about. What was at issue wasn’t a ban on “conversion’ in the sex-transition sense. That would be a good law and we wouldn’t be cheering that it got stuck down, as the CO conversion law was.
What was at issue was a law banning therapists from talking to gay or trans kids about converting back to their normal and usual sexual orientations and genders. That’s what Gorsuch was talking about: the law allowed therapists to affirm a gay or tranny’s change in orientation, but not to try to talk them out of it.

The activist judges are demonstrating precisely the qualities that you would look for in such a corrupt scheme, of mental midgetry, moral vacancy, and above all, complete and absolute Loyalty to the Clique. Biasberg may very well rationally expect to be the next Chief Justice, unless the SAVE Act is passed.
Posted by: SciVo at March 31, 2026 05:52 PM (Sy6m/) It is clear there needs to be some sort of regulatory body to reign in the actions of rogue judges.

Afternoon.
Despite my personal feelings I like to think that the justices of the Supreme Court are very intelligent law nerds who are able to understand the law and eloquently and their positions and opinions. Basically I expect they can run rings intellectually around 95% of the population (on matters of law). Except for KJB. She really is a fuckwit, isn't she?

It's done intentionally because it has nasty connotations of of (allegedly) brutal aversion therapy and behavioral operant conditioning therapy purportedly used on gays in the past, which I don't think even the most stereotypical evangelical right-wing reactionary would support.

RawStory: Justice Kagan 'signaled' to other states how to get around 8-1 ruling on anti-gay therapy. "Justice Kagan says, if this were viewpoint neutral and instead just regulated a subject matter of speech that is forbidden, for example, in doctor's offices, that would be a much tougher call,” Rubin explained. "Justice Kagan may be signaling to other states that have a concern about things like conversion therapy.”
It’s crazy how liberal and far right judges play different games. Kagan and Sotomayor are acting like it’s up to them to make thoughtful and principled rulings and maybe sometimes that means coming down in favor of something they personally disagree with. Alito and the Handmaid and Justice Brett just decide to invent new law and ignore precedent in service of the fascist project. And now that therapy is free speech there is no recourse if a therapist decides to start encouraging their clients to kill themselves. Kagans concurrence is word salad. Jackson's dissent is persuasive. Posted by: Intercepted Reddit Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at March 31, 2026 06:24 PM (ycI94) 191

There's something that bothers me about this ruling, and I'm not saying that Justice DEI is right. But try entertain this possibility:
Suppose a cardiologist starts giving verbal advice to his patients that they should smoke two packs of cigarettes every day. He believes that all the studies showing that cigarettes are harmful were flawed. Other than that, he practices cardiology perfectly. He performs procedures correctly and gives the correct prescriptions. But he still advises two packs a day of unfiltered Lucky Strikes. Can the state pull his cardiology license? Or does he have a constitutional right to give dangerous medical advice in the course of his practice? I think the answer is obviously yes, the state can restrict what medical advice he gives. The difference, and I don't think the opinion addresses this, is that despite what the "expert" consensus may be, issues of sexuality and gender are just too fuzzy to decide that one position is absolutely correct. And so there must be room for differences of opinion. But it seems preposterous to me that the state could license a physician and then have no control over the care he gives by verbal instructions.

I think this post sidesteps a key point. (sorry Ace)
This is marxism - in marxism (and Leftism generally) words are tools, not connected to a rational meaning. You say what you need to say to win. This is critical theory (which started as a legal theory) in action. This is Stalinism in action. They use words to deceive, not to enlighten. Here, she is just using the laws, and her interns (certainly not her - I think she is illiterate) are trying to use marxist theory to destroy the constitution, one ruling at a time.

They will eventually pre-halt everything Trump does with Federal Judges. I'm surprised they don't just go ahead and have Federal Judges rule that Trump isn't president. That's the result. Just do that over and over again forever. What would be the difference?
Roberts is a f'ing traitor. He could stop this. But this is his desire. The judicial/legal system is our Communist State Politburo and Roberts is the General Secretary. Am I wrong? I am not wrong. Posted by: banana Dream at March 31, 2026 06:36 PM (3uBP9) 259

So far today, I have read that judge number 1 will not allow Trump to continue building the ballroom.
Judge number 2. says Trump's EPA, etc. can't remove species from the endangered species list. Judge number 3. says Trump can't defund PBS. Judge number 4 says Trump can't stop paying Fed funds to a state with no control of fraud regarding said Fed funds. I'm sure I've missed other judicial fiats today. I believe we have a judge problem.

A note on the concurrence and Kagan thrown Jackson under the bus.
The main point of Kagan, and Sotomayor joining her, is that this protection works both ways. The government cannot stop someone from telling a kid to be straight and their birth sex and the government equally cannot stop someone from telling a kid to be of another sexual orientation or identity. That is why they agreed with the majority rather than spewing nonsense with Jackson. They want to enshrine government protection of grooming. Posted by: Sam at March 31, 2026 11:06 PM (7jMef) Kristi Noem's Husband Is a Not-So-Secret Crossdresser Who Adorns Himself With Ridiculous Fake BreastsSo I was wondering: Why does Kristi Noem feel that she can have a very non-covert, practically overt affair with Corey Lewandowski? She refused to even deny it when asked about it at a congressional hearing. I'm not being judgey, I'm asking: Why does she think that? Doesn't she worry about the husband finding out? The answer to the latter is "Nah, bruv." She does not worry about a jealous heterosexual husband, not at all. She might worry about her husband stealing her Wonderbras, though. And maybe this also explains why Trump moved so quickly to pack her off to Shield of the Americas Military School.These are the photos that allegedly show Kristi Noem's husband Bryon wearing comically oversized, lopsided breasts -- complete with fake protruding nipples -- to female members of an online fetish community. The Daily Mail obtained "hundreds" of messages purportedly sent between the former Secretary of Homeland Security's husband and three women who are involved in the so-called "bimbofication" fetish scene. The kinky community involves people injecting their busts with freakishly large amounts of saline in pursuit of a "Barbie-doll"-like appearance. The pictures show the South Dakota insurance mogul, who has three children with Noem, clad in pink hotpants and a skin-tight, flesh-colored crop-top stuffed with enormous balloons made to resemble massive cockeyed breasts. His face is clearly visible in several of the photos, including one in which his expression is so mundane it could be from a driver's license photo. In others he flashes a more flirty "kissy-face" pose in which he's pursing his lips. The outlet spoke with national security experts who said the existence of the scandalous photographs could have made his wife subject to potential blackmail threats. ... "They approach the person and say, if you work with us we won't expose this, and if you don't, we will. That's espionage 101." Kristi Noem was ousted from her role at DHS on March 5 after a pair of disastrous congressional hearings, including fumbling a question about whether she was having an affair with married top aide Corey Lewandowski.Noem claims the family has been "blindsided" by this. Press X to doubt. Her weird behavior suggests she's been dealing with this for years. See the article for the pictures. This pervert is wearing a shirt, but you can see the fake hooters and their misaligned nipples under the fabric of the shirt. I was going to post one but... eh. I'm not mad at you guys today so I won't do you like that. Piper's tweet has a snap if you must see it. If you don't want to see it: Imagine a seedier version of Hugh Laurie with giant foam-latex breasts with nipples that point the way to Bangor, Maine and Albuquerque, NM simultaneously.

Biden's Supreme Court DEI hire wrote the dissent in an 8-1 SCOTUS decision striking down Colorado's law that made it a crime to ... checks notes ... tell confused little boys and girls that they were not members of the alternative sex. Her "reasoning" was that the first amendment doesn't apply if "medical professionals" agree that kids will commit suicide if you don't indulge their trendy transgender identity statements.
I bring this up only to remind everyone that Biden's Supreme Court DEI hire is related by marriage to Paul Ryan, who thinks she's a brilliant mind. "Our politics may differ, but my praise for Ketanji's intellect, for her character, and for her integrity, is unequivocal," Ryan wrote.

Nope. Call me gay but my attraction to someone is, partly, influenced by what I think about them. She's nasty. And I don't even think she's hot, anyway. She's "cute for a politician" which is like "Cute for a writer" that doesn't mean actually hot. Posted by: ace at March 31, 2026 04:37 PM (1wjle) So you would not wash your face with her ass?

Willow'd:
Last night, one of the 'Ettes predicted (incorrectly) that 'Rons would be panting all over the prospect of racy photos of Fang Fang coming out in the Swalwell Files. Instead, the general reaction was "Eh, she's average for a Chinese gal. 5 or 6, in context." But clearly, that doesn't stop some of the guys here normally, who appear (as Ace has noted) to be in prison. I think the difference is that ordinary women are interesting, and 304s are not. You can find photos of above-average 304s by accident, with an innocent search on the wrong terms, and perfect 10s are an easy deliberate query away. But -- this is my hypothesis -- the accidentally famous ordinary woman retains an element of mystery, and that's what incites the interest. Posted by: SciVo at March 31, 2026 04:40 PM (Sy6m/) 73

Speaking of retarded shit…
Bernie tweeted that he wants to tax billionaires at 5% a year, raise $4.4T every year and give “families” (whatever that even means) a $12k check with the money. Slight problem is for 5% of a number to be worth 4.4 trillion that number needs to be $880T. Which is about 10X the net worth of all of the billionaires in the country. And then of course the whole and stock market plunging thing as billionaires have to sell stock to pay the tax. Nobody ever accused communists of being good at math.

Ok maybe. I’ll grant you a maybe there if it’s you that has the personal life issues. But this is her husband’s personal life. You can be good at your job even if your husband is a weirdo. The two are not related.

I didn't have a problem with Noem shooting a dog on her ranch. It was a killer and couldn't be trained out of it. It was her putting it in an autobiography and expecting everybody to see it as something cool, an authentic piece of rural lif....
It was a killer? He killed some chickens. He didn't attack a person. ---- I think its well established that most seriel killers begin by killing small animals when they're growing up... Posted by: Confusing man at a dinner party at March 31, 2026 04:53 PM (TN0g+) 163

Bernie tweeted that he wants to tax billionaires at 5% a year, raise $4.4T every year and give “families” (whatever that even means) a $12k check with the money.
Slight problem is for 5% of a number to be worth 4.4 trillion that number needs to be $880T. Which is about 10X the net worth of all of the billionaires in the country. - Well, he's a politician not a mathematician.

What is it with these MAGA-branded lady influencers?
Pearl Davis has had a good run mocking "Christian" (male) influencers in particular who then go around grooming teenaged boys. Or they're female and whoring around (at least with adults so, score one for the ladies, I guess). I'm not here to complain about Christian doctrine. It works pretty well for some. Maybe most. I don't think it works well for sluts, male or female, who like attention. Or if it does they should probably concentrate more on living a Christian life and less on telling everyone else to do it in between mouthfuls of cock.

Yes, U.S. District Judge Richard Leon - appointed by George W. Bush - has slammed the brakes on the construction of Trump's White House ballroom. The East Wing has been demolished, and now the $400-million project will have to be put on hold until it's approved.

Noem’s. Situation seems like nothing more than a married spouse who is never home because they’re off being a governor, then working on a presidential campaign, then becoming director of homeland security. I’m guessing Noem has been off doing her own thing now for well over 15 years. Meanwhile, husband is left behind to entertain himself. I’m guessing Noem really didn’t know what he was up to as I doubt when he saw her on occasion, he reiterated all his fetish garbage to her.

A federal judge just ordered the halt of all construction on the new ballroom.
----------------------------- U.S. District Judge Richard Leon wrote in his decision that no statute 'comes close' to giving the President the authority to take on the project without Congressional oversight. Leon then approved the Trust's request to have work stopped on the ballroom project amid the legal fight. The President responded to the news with a furious Truth Social post. In it, he labeled the Trust a 'Radical Left Group of Lunatics.' Posted by: beckster at March 31, 2026 03:47 PM (kX27y) 27

Euthanasia is the inevitable result of government-run and -paid healthcare. Why pay for years if not decades of care for person X when you can just kill them?
That's how the paper-pushers look at all this: we can convince these troubled people to kill themselves now, and it will save us millions of dollars in healthcare that we otherwise would have had to spend on them. If they can eliminate a significant portion of the elderly population -- the demographic with the highest expense for healthcare -- then it will save the government billions of dollars. It's a no-brainer from a government bureaucrat's perspective. Posted by: Elric The Blade at March 31, 2026 03:54 PM (iFTx/) 92

All kidding aside, I support someone being able to end their life when the alternative is pain and suffering with a miserable quality of life. Obviously very stringent safeguards are needed, and it should never be done because of money. Nationalized health care with its built-in shortages and the need to save money is the real problem.
Posted by: Archimedes at March 31, 2026 03:49 PM (Riz8t) With all due respect…. A million times NO! God is the author of life and death; it’s his decision and his alone. I think of Joni Eareckson Tada who many would say had a life not worth living… but what a courageous life she’s led because of her amazing faith. There are no safeguards that can make it safe. None…. Even family members will be wrongly motivated Posted by: LinusVanPelt at March 31, 2026 03:54 PM (xT8gx) 94

91 Euthanasia is the inevitable result of government-run and -paid healthcare. Why pay for years if not decades of care for person X when you can just kill them?
That's how the paper-pushers look at all this: we can convince these troubled people to kill themselves now, and it will save us millions of dollars in healthcare that we otherwise would have had to spend on them. If they can eliminate a significant portion of the elderly population -- the demographic with the highest expense for healthcare -- then it will save the government billions of dollars. It's a no-brainer from a government bureaucrat's perspective. Posted by: Elric The Blade at March 31, 2026 03:54 PM (iFTx/) You also get fresh organs out of the bargain.

A palate cleanser from Visegrad on X
" Visegrád 24 @visegrad24 · 1h BREAKING: Starmer suffers major defeat in court regarding his plans to transfer sovereignty of the Chagos Archipelago from the UK to Mauritius. The judge of the BIOT Supreme Court (British Indian Ocean Territory) has: - Has overturned Tony Blair’s law from 2004 that removed the Chagossians' Right of Abode. - Calculated that the cost of Starmer's Chagos surrender will be up to and over £48bn. The government claimed it would only be £3.7 billion - The judge made it clear that there is no historical authority for a prerogative power to expel or permanently exclude a population of British subjects from the territory to which their citizenship belongs. - The Judge quashed the Governnent's removal orders against the 4 Chagossians who recently returned to Chagos to stop the transfer to Mauritius. This is undoubtedly one of the biggest moments in the campaign to Save Chagos and might completely derail the government’s plans to transfer the territory to Mauritius as there are now Chagossians living on the islands.

I saw a few comments yesterday relative to Euthanasia and the United Kingdom. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to comment on it.
1. The UK House of Commons passed an Euthanasia Bill back in June 2025. 2. It's currently stuck in the House of Lords while they play around with the wording. It will pass eventually. 3. Last year the UK government automatically made Organ Donation and "Opt Out" process. So, you are automatically signed up to donate your organs unless you take steps to remove yourself from that eventuality. There were no debates. There were no discussions in Parliament. They just made a Fiat decision without input from any parties on this. Organ donation from Euthanasia is a VERY VERY VERY lucrative business for a number of parties. Currently, in Canada only Nova Scotia has "Opt Out" on organ donation and they still lead the world in the number of organs donated via Euthanasia. You can see what I'm getting at. Hello Ulterior motive. Posted by: Orson at March 31, 2026 04:13 PM (dIske) 205
Committing euthanasia is a crisis of faith at the end. It's losing trust that God will be with you every day of your life. One should never encourage another into it, and instead, should be steadfast and encourage the opposite.

I'll add to my comment above that the danger with normalizing suicide for medical reasons isn't just limited to greedy government bureaucrats wanting to save money by killing grandma.
You know who else wants to kill grandma? Certain members of her family who stand to inherit, or who just don't want to deal with her any more. If you think there isn't a significant number of people who would kill grandma over money, then you are underestimating how black some people's hearts are.

The NDP has become a parody of itself. This is the sort of stuff that conservatives would come up with to make fun of leftists 15 years ago, and the NDP took it as sound advice. Don't forget they hired a US consultant to tell them they have to relate to "Canadian lived experiences" Suffering from 3rd party cringe for this even taking place in my country. It's started to show up on international subreddits and it's fucking embarrassing. Bizarre that the NDP are leaning even harder into this performative dog and pony show stuff, after losing nearly all voter confidence in the last election for their tone-deafness regarding the real and pressing issues facing average Canadians The worst the north american left has done against themselves is starting to speak about white privilege to people barely scraping by, and then asking them to understand the nuance of the concept while never being nuanced on any issue ever.

After the declaration of war, Unity stayed in Germany but then sat on a bench in a park and put a bullet in her head. She survived but was mentally damaged, she was later evacuated to England.

All kidding aside, I support someone being able to end their life when the alternative is pain and suffering with a miserable quality of life. Obviously very stringent safeguards are needed, and it should never be done because of money. Nationalized health care with its built-in shortages and the need to save money is the real problem.

Last night, one of the 'Ettes predicted (incorrectly) that 'Rons would be panting all over the prospect of racy photos of Fang Fang coming out in the Swalwell Files. Instead, the general reaction was "Eh, she's average for a Chinese gal. 5 or 6." But clearly, that doesn't stop some of the guys here normally, who appear to even be turned on by gargoyles.
I think the difference is that ordinary women are interesting, and 304s are not. You can find photos of above-average 304s by accident, with an innocent search with the wrong terms, and perfect 10s are an easy deliberate query away. But -- this is my hypothesis -- the accidentally famous ordinary woman retains an element of mystery, and that's what incites the interest. Posted by: SciVo at March 31, 2026 04:35 PM (Sy6m/) 289

Speaking of retarded communalists..
Bernie tweeted that he wants to tax billionaires at 5% a year, raise $4.4T every year and give everyone a $12k check. Slight problem is for 5% of a number to be worth 4.4 trillion that number needs to be $880T. Which is about 10X the net worth of all of the billionaires in the country. And then of course the whole and stock market plunging thing as billionaires have to sell stock to pay the tax. Nobody ever accused communists of being good at math.

The new Left is NOT inventive but, rather, copycat in intellect and action.
In the 1973 film Soylent Green, Sol Roth (Edward G. Robinson) chooses to die at a government "euthanasia facility" (a thanatorium), where his death is made comfortable with stunning visuals of nature and classical music. The scene features archival footage of forests, wildlife, and blue oceans, set to music including Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony and Grieg’s "Peer Gynt" suite, offering a beautiful contrast to the film’s dystopian, polluted setting.

One of the analysis of the recent blockage was not that Iran had the reach to kill tankers, as much as Lloyds of London and the other major insurance players were getting their threat assessments from information leaked from "Five Eyes" assessments, and when MI6 was left out of the discussion about what Trump was doing with the Navy, they had no way of determining how to judge the risk and cancelled all insurance in the area.
This stopped all transiting, because no tanker is going to move anywhere without insurance. Now whether this was on purpose or not, is up for question. Dr Robert Malone discusses Maritime insurance and the roots of Lloyd's of London "Control insurance and you control trade. 85% of the world’s trade moves by sea and nearly half of it is insured through the London market." https://www.malone.news/p/dire-straits-part-2 Posted by: Kindltot - Free Harambe! at March 31, 2026 02:42 PM (rbvCR) Posted by: Gary Johnston at March 31, 2026 02:42 PM (EXyHK) 23

This framing leads to some desired outcomes either way.
If those countries do build up the courage, it really moves the overton window that countries can do what they need to in their best interest. You took oil. We are taking Iceland. If they don't. Then you aren't with us. That doesn't make us enemies, but it doesn't make us friends. Clarity. When you do need things from us, they come with a price because we are no longer friends. There is still the downside risk of getting bogged down. But if we take things for us, that helps a lot. And this framing basically says we get to take things.

So you're saying we can stop pouring billions into Ukraine? Whether you like it or not we've been acting as Europe's security blanket for generations. NATO was just one aspect. And they've repaid us by never fully funding their NATO commitments, allowing their militaries to wither and basically becoming passive assuming we will always be there to protect them and fight their battles. The hell with fighting for us, they wouldn't even let us use their airspace or our bases on their soil that we pay for and act as a deterrent for them.

When Trump tells the UK to "go to the Strait and just TAKE IT," the surface read is that he's venting at allies who didn't show up.
But the deeper move is priming the the public (and world) with a new mental frame: the Strait of Hormuz is not Iranian sovereign territory anymore. Actually, I think it might be shallower than that. Trump follows social media closely. A lot of right-wing commentators and such have adopted the phrase "we can just do things" to excuse/encourage the president to act, often unilaterally. I assume he, or his advisors like Miller, see that, like the sound of it, and are kind of echoing the sentiment. Posted by: Moron Analyst at March 31, 2026 03:01 PM (JCZqz) 117

Cause the closure of the strait for everyone else and then also tell everyone else to open it themselves. Yes, push Europe and the rest of the world more in China’s hands. Witnessing the erosion of American hegemony in the past 6 months has been crazy.
We’re a net exporter but this will drive the prices of oil up both at home as well. Not exactly the way I envisioned our “green future” but if it works it works. Electric cars are superior in almost every category. I welcome the change. I like Trump, the more he stay in power the more unified EU becomes, the dude did more for EU unity than anyone in last 20 years. I would like for Trump to go for third term. European return to be one of the big players has a nice ring to it People need to wake up and accept that NATO is dead.

>>Weird, Trump told us back in June that Iran's nuclear program had been totally obliterated. His words.
The program was destroyed. But there was confusion over how much of the 60% enriched uranium might have survived the attack. See how that works? And then when we attempted to negotiate with them the Iranians helpfully told us they still had enough near weapons grade uranium to make 11 nukes and against all international law they were going to make them. So what should a responsible leader do? Nothing as you propose or stop a country that for 47 years has been at war with us and funding proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah to attack our people and our interests? I'll take the president who wants to stop religious fanatics who believe their messiah will arrive once they end the world. And if our so called allies, NATO and otherwise, don't want to help then that should be considered for future alliances. Posted by: JackStraw at March 31, 2026 03:12 PM (viF8m) 172

When Trump tells the UK to "go to the Strait and just TAKE IT," the surface read is that he's venting at allies who didn't show up.
But the deeper move is priming the the public (and world) with a new mental frame: the Strait of Hormuz is not Iranian sovereign territory anymore.

Trump to topple the Islamic regime in Iran. That's an enormous change in Iran's relationship with the neighboring states.

Thank goodness for this place of refuge. I love Ace and dreamed of him last night (seriously). Weird platonic dream, Ace. You were having a dinner party and invited us. I offered to help wash the dishes and you turned me down.
Regardless, there's the steady drumbeat of "no troops on the ground" on the blog where I'm primed and ready to argue. Except she's vanished for now, and I was polite. Possibly marching with No Kings. France, Italy and Spain are going to get spankings from President Trump. And Stuttering Sudden Colonoscopy Surprised Stunned Starmer is going to get it worse. I feel similar after a war with Ann Taylor online today because the site would not let me buy a simple lace blouse (on sale) due to my address. I feel ready and rested for war now. My husband came downstairs smiling and asking who I am mad at now. He said he can tell when I say to the rep, "Thank you very much and I am glad this is being recorded!" Sometimes when I am told a call is being recorded I shout GOOD! I appear to be a bit ornery and maybe lunch will cure me. I thank God every night for President Trump as he shows the sissy countries how it is freaking done! Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at March 31, 2026 03:22 PM (WONhk) 217

I'm a little surprised at Meloni TBH. Italy is saying something like the correct protocols requesting overflight were not followed. The report did not specify when the aircraft were due to land but said permission was denied because the U.S. had not requested clearance and Italy's military leadership had not been consulted, as required under treaties governing the use of U.S. military installations in the country. https://is.gd/Dqw637 Posted by: Archimedes at March 31, 2026 03:25 PM (Riz8t) 232

Actually, I think it might be shallower than that. Trump follows social media closely. A lot of right-wing commentators and such have adopted the phrase "we can just do things" to excuse/encourage the president to act, often unilaterally. I assume he, or his advisors like Miller, see that, like the sound of it, and are kind of echoing the sentiment.
Posted by: Moron Analyst at March 31, 2026 03:01 PM (JCZqz) == I might have thought that in Trump 1.0, but I don't in Trump 2.0. This has all been planned with contingency possibilities studied. It doesn't mean it will work or that it won't go off the rails. It might go off the rails. Trump's team has realized that the world as it was was all about posturing. And he has governed since his re-election with that as the overriding assessment of all of his political enemies. So his administration has been able to maneuver his enemies into untenable situations that have been tough to get out of. That is what is going on right now.

Modern Russia is incapable of seriously invading, let alone occupying Western Europe.
But let's throw military realities to the four winds, and presume they were. Who gives a damn? Western Europe is spent. They're done. Someone is going to make a play on Europe, and it's not worth defending against that whoever. It would be unconscionable to intervene a third time on their behalf, even if they still mattered - and they don't. Who would you prefer do it? An actual world power like China? I wouldn't. Barking mad Muslims? That's the one that will happen, and it's the worst outcome. If Putin somehow got the wherewithal to snatch Western Europe, it would probably be the best of the bad outcomes, for them and us.

"In a few weeks, Trump has normalized the concept of Western control over the Strait so thoroughly that full US seizure now looks like the modest option compared to what he's suggesting allies do on their own. This is intentional."
This is not the outcome I would like to see but it does make sense. Ever since long before I joined the Navy iran has been closing the straits to interrupt the flow of oil to the world. They closed them in the 70s and that caused the gas lines in the US and closed them again in the late 80s when we had to go in and blow them up during the tanker wars. On and off multiple times they have threatened to close them or dumped mines there in the last 25 years. It is time to end their ability to throw a temper tantrum that affects global prices.

As for Trump talking about Iranians throwing off their IRGC masters, that'd be nice, but it's not something Trump can do by himself. That's Trump blustering and bluffing.
When Trump took Maduro, he didn't replace Maduro with the elected president-elect - much as some might wish he had. He just let Maduro's regime seconds-in-command take over. The Venezuelans will handle the rest. Posted by: gKWVE at March 31, 2026 03:36 PM (gKWVE) 304

The failure of Iranians to rise is the most foreboding thing about this whole adventure. Yes, I understand that much of the prominent opposition figures have been slaughtered, and that they are unarmed, and disorganized.
Even so, with a despotic elite on the ropes, I'd expect a lot more disorganized, spontaneous, poorly armed mass violence against regime officials and assets than we're seeing. This leads to me to suspect that popular support for the regime, even if it's still a minority position, is *much* higher than we've been led to believe - high enough to dissuade their anti-regime neighbors from acting.

Elric and others.
From Maritime London-City of London's website, "London is the world’s leading centre for marine insurance, including P&I. Physical risk in shipping arises from shipping operations, cargo loss or damage as well as shipbuilding and London provides a solid infrastructure for the insurance of these risks. Whether placed through Lloyd’s of London or company members of the International Underwriting Association (IUA), London insurers are able to handle the insurance needs of the shipping community. Cover provided includes hull insurance, war risk insurance, loss of profit/freight insurance, detention insurance, strike insurance or uninsured legal expenses (defence) cover. London currently has the largest share – around a third – of the global insurance market, ahead of the USA, Japan, Germany and France. In 2013, it was worth £5.9bn. (Source: London Matters: The competitive position of the London Insurance Market, 2014). P&I clubs continue to provide the majority share of the world’s shipping fleet with insurance cover against legal liabilities to third parties." Posted by: whig at March 31, 2026 03:45 PM (E4rtv) 360

You should be pissed that Trump is about to end this war the mullahs still in power, and with a new revenue source: tolls on tankers.
But you're not going to be pissed because you'll never get pissed at Trump. You'll always talk yourself into believing that his farts smell great. Posted by: Masturbatin' Pete at March 31, 2026 03:27 PM (+DwtS) == Actually, that won't be the ending regardless. The regime part was always a problem - because we aren't going to invade. The hope was the people take care of that and or someone comes in charge that we can deal with who makes them less radical. I'm sure we'd love to find the processed uranium - am hopeful Israel knows where to look for it. Their ability to launch a nuke has certainly been degraded and their proxy network has been degraded. There is a chance that we are unable to account for the uranium, meaning a dirty bomb scenario comes into play. You'd have a better argument if you didn't assume what you hopes happens will.

>> don't know their names, ok? Why is that important?
Because your entire argument is based on the assertion that they are still in charge of Iran. If they were it should easy to name at least one. If you've been following this war at all you know that Trump and his team have been saying for the last week they don't know who to negotiate with because so much of the leadership is dead. The only one who appears to be negotiating is the Speaker and he is not a mullah. If you watched Venezuela, which is not unrelated to this incident since Hezbollah was running wild in Venezuela with Iranian backing, Trump left some of the leadership in charge and under US control. That might be what happens here, temporarily, if a deal can be reached to make sure the country doesn't turn into post war Iraq which was a disaster because we took down the entire government and got ISIS instead. The US and Israelis have obliterated Iran's navy, air force and almost all of their missiles. The GCC are on our side. I expect some coalition will be put in charge of a now neutered Iran. And that will end nearly 50 years of terror. Yea, I'm in favor of that. Posted by: JackStraw at March 31, 2026 03:54 PM (viF8m) 378

I know I know Colin you can take him literally but you have to take him seriously and art of the deal and blah blah blah. But Trump obviously wants this to be over. And if it ends in its current state, then there really is unfinished business. As for history I look to the strike on Iran last summer. I have no way to judge whether they were actually successful because I don't have access to that intelligence. Nobody does. But I know that after being told that we totally obliterated their nuclear program, 9 months later we're told that they've got their nuclear program back.

Here is what I heard - Iran built tunnels under the strait of Hormuz. Using the tunnel, Iran could release mines or even launch teams of divers with demolition charges.
These tunnels were extremely hard to detect. Except - the U.S. figured out how to detect them, and demolished and flooded the tunnels. They are keeping how they did this very quiet - but it involved advanced sonar and satellites. So, trump saying other nations should patrol - no other nation had the ability to deal with the tunnels. Hence any ship patrolling was a high risk of getting sunk. That was why every other nation declined to do it. I think Trump was just sticking it to the rest of the world.

Oh, it's a DEFENSIVE alliance, eh? So why in the blue fuck were we involved in Allied Force and Odyssey Dawn? Neither of those conflicts involved a NATO country that was attacked. The Euros couldn't solve either problem and went to the UNITED STATES to fix their shit for them. The Balkans should have been the first actual indication that NATO--and specifically, the faggots in western Europe--weren't really capable of doing diddly squat without the Americans to hold their decrepit, liver-spotted hands. Now they can prepare to bend over and have Achmed ram them up the ass while they bow towards Mecca. Time to cut anyone loose that can't play ball.

He does not want to say her name. The mayor of Rhode Island's capital city is calling for a mural reportedly backed by Elon Musk to honor Iryna Zarutska --the Ukrainian woman whose brutal murder while riding a North Carolina train prompted calls for harsher punishment for career criminals -- to be taken down. The mural, located on the exterior of The Dark Lady, an LGBTQ+ club in downtown Providence, remains incomplete, WJAR-TV reported. The office of Mayor Brett Smiley told the news outlet that he wants the artwork taken down. "The murder of the individual depicted in this mural was a devastating tragedy, but the misguided, isolating intent of those funding murals like the one across the county is divisive and does not represent Providence," Smiley said in a statement. He said he continues to "encourage our community to support local artists whose work brings us closer together rather than divide us."Did he call for the George Floyd murals to be obliterated as well? Of course not. ... Zarutska, a 23-year-old refugee who fled her country after the Russian invasion, was brutally stabbed to death in an unprovoked attack while riding the Lynx Blue Line light rail in Charlotte, NC, last year. The suspect, Decarlos Brown Jr., 34, is charged with violence against a railroad carrier and mass transportation system resulting in death, which is a capital offense under federal law. ... Zarutska's death prompted questions about soft on crime policies adopted by many Democratic-run cities. President Donald Trump spotlighted the killing during his State of the Union address last month. ... "Iryna was riding home on the train when a deranged monster, who had been arrested over a dozen times and was released through no-cash bail, stood up and viciously slashed a knife through her neck and body," Trump said. "She had escaped a brutal war only to be slain by a hardened criminal set free to kill in America," he added. "Ms. Zarutska, tonight I promise you we will secure justice for your magnificent daughter."It's pretty explicit that white lives don't matter to the left. "Reparations" include the right of "oppressed minorities" to beat and kill white people with little consequence. It's also clear that the Regime that murdered Iryna by letting this psychopath out of jail dozens of times will brook absolutely no criticism of their murderous policies. Iryna is not just a reminder that white lives matter too, askshually. It's a reminder that the psycho-left's policies cause butchery and rape. But the psycho-left will use any tool of oppression to halt any argument or simple fact that might undermine their headlong drive to inflict authoritarian Marxism with a nasty racist twist on the country.

OF COURSE. If it pulls the heartstrings and makes people think BADTHOUGHT rightwing thoughts, it's "divisive".

Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

>>> Floyd was killed by police who were paid by more taxes
I don't want my taxes to be used for adjudicated murder. I hold the police to a much higher standard of behavior than a schizophrenic mentally ill man. Do you ? The mural holds the politicians and their "decarceration" policies to a higher standard. Don't you agree that politicians who create a policy should be held to a higher standard than beat cops making spur of the moment decisions? You're so fucking tedious and queer.

Update: Secret Service agent who shot himself in butt was trying to use gun light to find phone UPDATE: Additional new details about the junior @SecretService agent who shot himself last Friday morning during a movement at the Philly airport with Jill Biden: The agent left his phone behind in the SUV while escorting Jill Biden into the airport. He rushed back to get his cell phone and was using his Glock's flashlight to try to find it in the trunk of the SUV. When he tried to holster his gun, he shot himself -- yes, right in the butt cheek. I'm told agent training stresses that the light on the Glock should only be used while shooting. Yes, that is Susan Crabtree, a national correspondent for RealClear Politics, reporting the details of a Secret Service agent who shot himself in the tush. Last week, the agency reported that the agent shot himself in the leg while on Jill Biden's protective detail, but it looks like they might have been trying to save what's left of his dignity. https://tinyurl.com/7yr3p8e8 Posted by: rickb223 at March 31, 2026 02:16 PM (9E5Ho) 170

Whites have always been a global minority. No change there.
Whites are also the people, excluding the Mongols, who've conquered most of the known world. I'm not saying that the remnant has that spark but the future oppressors had better hope not.

Other than the fact that some kind of ordnance was involved (secondary explosions), don't think anyone outside the mil/intel sector knows what those spectacular explosions outside Isfahan were last night.
And there are many "re-strikes" occurring. Again, neither the US nor Israel are giving out a lot details (Israel much more actually) on targets struck, but Israel at least has hit targets more than once. Also, if you count hitting places first struck back in June '25, they're going back for seconds on several targets. Either due to interfere with recovery/reconstruction efforts (CENTCOM released on video of a hit on a bulldozer), or to cause further damage.

------------- Dude, Kirk is the last of the Redskins. He was brought in by Daddy Shanahan as insurance for RG III. RG ended his career in the playoffs and Kirk carried the team from then on. He is the doubleganger for Stafford. Same talents - same system. Stafford has had troubles with his back. The Rams coach was the OC for Redskins and knows Kirk's talents. Whether he wants a backup role is the question. Should Stafford go down he would be QB-ing a Super Bowl caliber team. Posted by: pudinhead at March 31, 2026 02:07 PM (n17eQ) Russell Wilson was actually the Shannahan's 1st choice to be QB, but Snyder decided to trade 3 1st rounders and a 2nd rounder to move up to draft RGIII because he wanted a flashy QB. The Shannahan's were blindsided by it because Wilson was a better fit for their offense. By the time that they got to the 4th round, Bruce Allen asked the Kyle if he still wanted Cousins who was their 2nd choice at QB, and they said yes. Snyder couldn't stand Cousins because he thought that he was taking the shine off of RGIII, so he treated him like shit which led to Cousins leaving DC.

Any Iranian official/s who make a """deal""" with the Great Satan will be the new stars of the Iranian Muslims' Stab-in-the-Back mythology.
Those people would either be instantly deposed and killed by their subordinates, or have to fight a brutal, protracted power struggle against them, which they will lose. This will make any negotiating largely pointless. We could agree to back that faction to the hilt for the foreseeable future, and set their leader up as the puppet we defend until the Muslims beat us along with him. Or, we could wave the worthless peace treaty around, declare victory and go home until it's time to smash the Muslims from the air and sea again.

The agony and confusion among the Beltway pointy-heads (to include 98% of supportive, "conservative" "expert" types) at Trump's wild public diplomacy stylings are glorious.
SecState calls the Iranian leadership (several days in a row) "lunatics", while simultaneously the prez bizarrely proclaims that the 3rd or 4th replacements for leadership that has been terminated a "new regime", and "more reasonable". Trump's intimation that we could just declare our objectives met and walk, without worrying about Hormuz - the Euros and others can take care of that, it's their big problem - is also hilarious.

Taqqiyah is no particular concern with Iran. It's the same inability to trust any authoritarian government from almost any part of the world. The USSR couldn't be trusted on many aspects of agreements, that's what conservative counting rules and eventually on-site inspection were all about.

I know you're supposed to keep your finger off the trigger but I'd still prefer an additional manual safety.

I prefer a handgun with a quick swish of the thumb manual safety. When I carry a Glock, I'm always afraid of catching something as I holster the gun. Shooting my dick off doesn't seem like fun. I now carry a Ruger Security 9.

Russia might turn out to be our greatest ally when all is said and done. Russia, US, and Israel came remake the Middle East - if not the world - through sustained aerial bombardment and rockets and drones to ensure freedom liberty reign supreme. And Trump is right we have plenty of oil here and from Venezuela to ensure we don't need any oil from the Middle East. But we need the patriotic oil companies in the US to price oil at an American discount and not via the world market. Posted by: Diabeetus at March 31, 2026 02:39 PM (SlrUo) 266

One of the most humorous events from my time as Scoutmaster was sitting in on one of our scout's Eagle Board of Review and, when he was asked whether someone or another ought to have been punished for having behaved inhumanely toward another human being, he replied, "Well, some people deserve to be punished." That response nearly caused his questioner to stroke out from shock. "Surely you can't mean that!" "I do. Some people are just evil and they deserve punishment." More sputtering and attempts to get the young man to moderate his assertions, but he stuck to his guns. One of the other Board members knew the young man's father and, afterward, during the congratulatory chit chat, he told the father, "Boy, I certainly knew that he was your son when he made that reply!"

Posted by: Mayor Hates Immigrants Which Is SO Not Cool at March 31, 2026 06:31 PM (bt3Im) Michigan Synagogue Attack Was "Hezballah-Inspired," Says FBIThey can finally determine a motive. When the Bureau is headed by a Trump appointee, at least. The attack earlier this month on a synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan, was "a Hezbollah-inspired act of terrorism purposely targeting the Jewish community and the largest Jewish temple in Michigan," the FBI said in a news conference Monday. The assailant, Ayman Ghazali, a naturalized US citizen from Lebanon, rammed a pickup truck into the synagogue on March 12, as more than 100 children were attending school inside. ...Two of his brothers were Hezballah terror commanders. They were killed by Israel. ... Ghazali began planning for the attack days earlier, the FBI said, with his plans intensifying on March 9. A review of Ghazali's online activity dating to January showed repeated searches for pro‑Hezbollah and Iranian news outlets, as well as videos related to gunfire and ammunition. Beginning March 9, the FBI said, he closely followed speeches and live coverage involving Hezbollah's secretary general, Naim Qassem, along with reporting about an Iranian fatwa -- a religious ruling concerning Islamic law -- calling for total jihad against the US military. He also researched Jewish cultural educational and religious centers throughout the Detroit metro area, viewed multiple pages of upcoming events at Temple Israel and searched specific terms and phrases such as "the largest gathering of Israelis in Michigan," "Orthodox synagogues" and "Israelis near me," Runyan said. ... An order of dozens of water containers arrived on the 11th -- the day before the attack -- and he immediately started filling them with gasoline, making four trips to gas stations so he would not arouse suspicion, Runyan said. He also bought two torch lighters, which authorities believe he used to set his truck on fire. On the day of the attack, Ghazali sent his sister, who authorities believe lives in Lebanon, numerous videos and messages "affirming his Hezbollah-inspired ideology," Runyan said. Ten minutes before he drove his truck into the synagogue, Ghazali sent his sister two videos in Arabic indicating he was at the largest gathering of Israelis in the state of Michigan, had booby-trapped his car and would forcibly enter and start shooting people, the FBI said. "God willing, I will kill as many of them as I possibly can," Ghazali recorded himself saying, according to Runyan.Happy Tuesday! I didn't read much over the weekend but I'm now "On the Doorstep" in The Hobbit. I'm sure many of you finished. Does anyone do this? When I read Hobbit/LOTR, I put on music and ambience from the movies. But I'm not sure it adds anything. I think it just distracts me. Update: It was Netanyahu inspired terrorism. He consistently links Judaism and Zionism and it puts a target on the backs of Jews all over the world. The people in Michigan had nothing to do with the war crimes Israel is committing. Exactly. Who wants to take the FBI at their word on this one? I'm guessing the usual suspects. It absolutely doesn't excuse the violence, but I've also heard his family in Lebanon was killed in Israeli attacks. If we're going to be involved in this war, we're going to experience the effects of it. It turns out when you launch a poorly conceived attack on a foreign nation with zero regard for collateral damage, it leads to stuff like this. There is zero excuse for the violence he planned to commit, but killing innocents breeds terrorism and unfortunately the current administration is damn good at that. This isn't a terrorist linked attack. The FBI is bullshitiny to justify the invasion of Lebanon.

Fun fact, since Gorsuch had the opinion today reversing Colorado's ban on family therapy to reverse same sex or trans oriented yutes, then it appears very likely that Justice Alito may author Callais v. LA which is the Majority Minority districts under the Voting Rights Act. From the October cases this term, only Alito has not authored an opinion.
I suspect the leftist justices are trying to push the opinion's release beyond this year's elections as it will cost the Dems probably about a dozen or more seats and require redistricting in multiple states. Posted by: whig at March 31, 2026 12:39 PM (E4rtv) 39

There is zero excuse for the violence he planned to commit, but killing innocents breeds terrorism and unfortunately the current administration is damn good at that.

BACKLASH!!!!!!!! BEWARE OF BACKLASH!!!!!!
Seriously, clown comments like the last on on this post are right out of the Ali Mohammad Alinski playbook. Even when someone screams "Allah Ackbar" and proceeds to recite the Koran while simutaneously beheading Jewish children, while wearing a Hezballah T-shirt and leaving a manifesto outlining the exact reason for the actions; the victim card pops out from supporters creating some chimera argument that they will be the ones to suffer from non-existent repurcussions. Reminds me of a neighbor as a kid. He'd whip snowballs at me while I was shoveling the drive-way. The minute I turned towards him and took a step, he'd run in his house and tell his mom I was threatening him. That's the Muslim community in a nutshell.

The 30 Years War wasn't much of a religious war. It started over whether Bohemia's kingship should be hereditary or elected, had the strongest Catholic power in the world on the "protestant" side, and the strongest Protestant power stay neutral.

no it's basically a cheesecake, but lighter you use ricotta cheese and cooked rice and some lemon zest (or orange). it's not dense like normal cheesecake also the easter bread although my aunt makes those for everyone. those are the best! but sort of like fruitcake? but light on the fruit - and she makes some without fruit. they have a little painted egg in the middle Posted by: BlackOrchid(j+aD2) at March 31, 2026 01:11 PM (j+aD2) Ah, the cake is lighter, but has way more texture (with the cooked rice)...it's like rice pudding meets cheesecake...good choice!

There is Always a Reason so the normies and swallow what normal people normally oppose.
Posted by: San Franpsycho at March 31, 2026 01:01 PM (RIvkX) The Reason is there to justify the conclusion that was arrived at before the act. "See, just like Jean Valjean!" Without that justification then the preconceptions at play make the act meaningless, since alternate explanations cannot exist. For some people, even the attempt to find an alternate explanation becomes a violation, and can be like an assault on the perception of the world. So, just like Jean Valjean, it is an act solely in response to the bad things that are disapproved of. Posted by: Kindltot at March 31, 2026 01:22 PM (rbvCR) 183

I'm no expert, but the Sunni vs Shia split happened just after the death of Mohammed, and it was over whether the new religion should have a chief authority who was related to Mohammed by blood, or not. A group including Mohammed's son was ambushed and killed while traveling, by the non-bloodline faction (Sunnis), and it was on.

400 years ago we were also still emptying our shit pots out the window into the street, and thought absolute monarchy was a normal state of affairs.
TBH salic primogeniture with a nominal divine right of a king WAS a social improvement over what had gone before. Having a clear succession with weaker nobles to cause less trouble with their infighting is part of the reason Europe was able to go on the offensive in the crusades era - Islam as the time had polygamy, no real rules on succession, and endemic internal conflicts.

TBH salic primogeniture with a nominal divine right of a king WAS a social improvement over what had gone before.
Having a clear succession with weaker nobles to cause less trouble with their infighting is part of the reason Europe was able to go on the offensive in the crusades era - Islam as the time had polygamy, no real rules on succession, and endemic internal conflicts. Posted by: 18-1 at March 31, 2026 01:28 PM (sKqQm) It could also be seen as Charlemagne realizing the need for raising of horse for his knights required large estates, and the support of Salic law prevented the break up of the estates to "all the inheritors", as well as cementing ties to Charlemagne personally by those lucky first born.

You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated.

By the way, the national convention was such a freak show that provincial NDPs are distancing themselves. The idiot Nenshi in AB is scared to death of what the freak show will do to NDP chances in his province. Posted by: Cow Demon at March 31, 2026 03:35 PM (z/ZK2) The Morning Rant: Spain Is Lost![]() Spanish Defense Minister Margarita Robles confirmed the move, saying Spain has denied both airspace access and the use of joint U.S.-Spanish bases for any operations tied to the Iran conflict. "This was made perfectly clear to the American military and forces from the very beginning," Robles said. "Neither the bases are authorized, nor, of course, is the use of Spanish airspace authorized for any actions related to the war in Iran." Spain already had refused to allow U.S. forces to use the strategically critical Rota and Morón bases in southern Spain, installations long viewed as key hubs for American military operations into Europe, Africa and the Middle East. The expansion of that restriction to Spanish airspace effectively cuts off another logistical pathway for U.S. operations and signals that Madrid is willing to directly limit U.S. military movement despite its NATO membership. The answer for America is simple...close those bases, and spend the billions of dollars in some other countries that will be more appreciative of America and its effort to free the world from Iran's evil. And for the taxpaying citizens of America? Don't go to Spain. Don't buy Spanish products. It's simple. They don't support us, so why should we support them? Besides, it is a country that is rapidly descending into the evil of progressive atheism, in which the value of life and culture is measured by an amoral calculation more akin to Mao than to Ignatius of Loyola (whatever you might think of him). Here is a powerful bit of data that Spanish culture is gone... replaced by the same post-modern melange currently engulfing Canada, the UK, and a few other Western countries. Father loses legal fight to halt euthanasia of 25-year-old daughter in Spain Noelia Castillo Ramos' case galvanized international attention after her father, Gerónimo Castillo, mounted a legal battle against the authorization of various Spanish courts for his daughter to receive euthanasia in 2023. Aided by Abogados Cristianos (Christian Lawyers), a conservative Catholic organization, Mr. Castillo exhausted all appeals to the Spanish courts. The father argued that his daughter wasn’t fully psychologically able to make a decision regarding euthanasia and that she needed better medical and psychiatric care. His legal battle was ultimately shut down by the European Court for Human Rights in Strasbourg, France, on March 10. It's called psychiatric illness, and giving its sufferers agency over their own treatment and lives is, frankly, insane. But it illuminates the interest of the collective over the individual, and the total rejection of an objective morality that has been the backbone of the West, courtesy of religion, for 2,500 years. Spain has chosen its path, and we should respect that choice. But no amount of Serrano ham, Paella, and magnificent art should lure us to continue our support of this failed state. [France too is barring American use of its airspace, but that is a discussion for another time!] [Crossposted at CutJibNewsletter and X/Twitter].

Daily Beast: New Investigation Corroborates Claims of Woman Who Says Trump Sexually Abused Her at 13
So the headline is true — the woman who accused Trump of sexually abusing her has had some of her details corroborated … just none related to Trump, but instead, someone named Jimmy Atkins. Jimmy Atkins’ business back in Ohio was running trade schools. But on Hilton Head, he took over a small company that specialized in long-term rentals. Property in the island’s gated subdivisions, called plantations in reference to the local antebellum history, attracted vacationing families and wealthy retirees. Corporate executives and global financiers descended by private plane to survey the frenzy some two decades into the island’s transformation. At Harbour Realty and Rentals, with an office near Coligny Beach, Atkins came into contact with a teenage girl who would later claim to the FBI that she was sexually assaulted by him and a young Jeffery Epstein, the infamous and now deceased sexual predator. She alleged to agents that the two men also conspired to extort her mother to embezzle money. The mother eventually ended up in prison. ... axe meet grinding stone Posted by: SMOD at March 31, 2026 11:12 AM (RHGPo) 48

I read through some leftwing threads on this Spanish girl.
The general points: 1) She didn't report the assaults at the time, so she was lying and probably had voluntarily had sex with them - Women lie about sexual assaults all the time 2) This is because European countries are still too patriarchal - in a true feminist society women would feel good about having sex 3) This is also because of discrimination against immigrants.

It enters history as a colony of Carthage, was the scene of major wars and conspiracies before Rome had an empire -- and then came the Vandals. Not just for the weekend.

My Andorran dream will live on. High mountains, low taxes. The duties of the state are outsourced jointly to Josep-Lluís Serrano Pentinat, Bishop of Urgell, and to Macron the Flaccid, but they seem to mostly let Andorra operate as one large ski resort for the rest of Europe. Perhaps not quite heaven, but as close as one can hope to get.

Daily Beast: New Investigation Corroborates Claims of Woman Who Says Trump Sexually Abused Her at 13
So the headline is true — the woman who accused Trump of sexually abusing her has had some of her details corroborated … just none related to Trump, but instead, someone named Jimmy Atkins. How is that not clear journalistic malpractice* and outright libel? OK, taken individually each part of the sentence is true but the clear intent is to deceive.

Holy cow.
9th Circuit rules California’s anti-hunting legislation unconstitutional. The state tried to ban advertising that could “appeal to minors,” but the reality was simple, this would’ve shut down promotion of youth hunts, hunter education, and beginner firearms. Lawful, truthful outreach to the next generation was treated like a crime, with fines up to $25,000 per violation. After a 4-year legal fight, the court ruled it violated the First Amendment by restricting legal speech, while also colliding with Second Amendment protections tied to lawful firearm use. California ultimately backed down, the law is permanently blocked, and the state is now paying the legal fees. Thanks to the Sportsmen’s Alliance, SCI, and the other groups that stood up and fought to protect our hunting heritage. Aaron B.

One caveat about Spain. It is currently run by a thoroughly corrupt leftist minority government. Due to Spanish law, a minority government can stay in place for a very long time due to the fragmentation of political parties.
"Minority governments have been common in Spain since its democratic transition, with around 75% of cabinets being minority ones. Before 2020, governments were typically single-party minority administrations, but the political landscape shifted after the 2015 elections, which fragmented the party system. This led to Spain’s first national coalition government in 2020, formed by PSOE and Unidas Podemos. Recent minority governments have faced challenges due to polarization and fragmented parliaments. The Sánchez government depends on backing from parties like ERC, Junts, PNV, and EH Bildu—some of which advocate for Catalan or Basque independence—while excluding the conservative PP and far-right Vox. Despite difficulties in passing budgets and legislation, such governments have used executive decrees and strategic alliances to maintain governance."

If you look at how crazy radical the Spanish communists of the 1930s were, and if you assume they never really went away but were merely suppressed, this suicidal outcome for Spain makes sense. Not just the US airbase denial, their larger fall as a Western society. The original Muslim invasion of Spain in the 8th century was invited in by a faction in Spain that sought an advantage over another faction. Kind of like all of Western Europe today, but with welfare for the invaders now, until the governments there can't afford it anymore. I guess that's going to be ugly -- old school looting and mass murder by the invaders when the welfare runs out. Posted by: Semi-Literate Thug at March 31, 2026 11:47 AM (VWtfl) 167

Putin is an anti-freedom monster, but he differs from the Euroscum only in that he remembers how to use force. But yes, if he or a successor actually removed most of their internally repressive moves of the last 15 years and negotiated some kind of settlement with Ukraine (so less Russian men would die futilely and the sanctions would mostly end), Russia would, ironically, be well-positioned to really become a major power like he desires. I could even see a free-er Russia and US joining hands to contain China's ambitions, if their current leadership would toss out their Soviet-era instincts.

Posted by: JackStraw at March 31, 2026 11:09 AM (viF8m) The details being reported thus far on Italy's denial of landing authorization to US military aircraft -- reportedly a flight of B-1s looking to gas-and-go -- on March 27 at Sigonella is not a blanket denial as is the case with Spain and its airspace. So, for the moment, anyway, let's get that butane lighter away from your hair. Posted by: one hour sober at March 31, 2026 11:58 AM (Y1sOo) 197

Posted by: Semi-Literate Thug at March 31, 2026 11:52 AM (VWtfl) One of the great post-war mistakes has to have been our full-throated initial support for that spindly shit-head DeGaulle. His asshole behavior all through the war years should have been a clue. Even worse is when we allowed DeGaulle to enter the political alliance of NATO when they refused to also enter the military part of NATO. So we basically gave them the idea that they could politically control NATO without a military commitment. Posted by: IllTemperedCur at March 31, 2026 12:07 PM (y9nCu) 224

Spain shows both what is needed to curtail the commies, and what happens when you fail to keep up the required maintenance.
It also shows some of the glaring flaws in the US constitution, though one might argue that the founding fathers were realistic and understood it wasn't going to last forever - and of all things, the 2A, even as curtailed as it has been, is the only thing giving us a real chance to last long enough to avoid total destruction (see the UK as an alternative and a warning) You cannot, and should not, tolerate those who announce their intent to enslave you or to erase your population. That's fucking stupidity of the highest order. 9/11 and the global response was enough for me to categorize islam. 2020 and the J6 response with the backdrop of debanking, child grooming, and foreign invasion were the final nails for progressivism.

AI Overview: Gas lines in the 1970s were caused by severe gasoline shortages stemming from two major oil crises—the 1973 Arab oil embargo and the 1979 Iranian Revolution—which severely disrupted oil supply. These shortages were worsened by US price controls, panic buying, and high reliance on foreign oil, causing massive lines and rationing. (NPR, History dot com and others) Drivers with license plates ending in odd numbers could only buy gas on odd days, and vice versa. Gas stations often ran out of fuel, leading to reduced hours or closures. Conservation Measures: The maximum speed limit was reduced to 55, and gasoline was severely rationed.

Later, in 1978 they went to $1/gal. I recall people wondering how they could do that since the mechanical pumps could only go up to 99.9c/gal. The solution was to easily adjust the pumps to register price per quart or half gallon. That was confusing. Glad they didn't start selling it per liter....

I recall people wondering how they could do that since the mechanical pumps could only go up to 99.9c/gal. The solution was to easily adjust the pumps to register price per quart or half gallon.

That was confusing. Glad they didn't start selling it per liter.... Posted by: Anonymous Rogue in Kalifornistan (ARiK) at March 31, 2026 12:21 PM (QGaXH) You've just solved a long-standing mystery for me. A gas station in the town I was living in at the time did in fact sell by the liter for a time. I'm betting you're dead on... their pumps couldn't be set for more than a dollar a gallon, so they switched to liters until they could get new pump guts (or get the old ones adjusted or whatever). Perhaps the pump guts even came from the factory able to handle either gallons or liters, so they could be sold internationally. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at March 31, 2026 12:26 PM (IG3/x) 278
It's long past time that the US cut pretty much all of Europe loose and let them fund their own defense alongside their cradle-to-grave welfare states.
The downside is that they'll be overrun even faster by the Muslim invaders and we'll end up having to fight another continental war over there, but I think that's inevitable anyway. They're well into the "good times make weak men" phase of their existence, and they need to face some hard times sooner rather than later. Posted by: ballistic at March 31, 2026 12:26 PM (oqH4h) 279

NY Post, "Former Department of Homeland Security chief Kristi Noem is “devastated” by salacious allegations that her husband, Bryon, lives a double life in which he dabbled in cross-dressing and chatted online with fetish models. “Ms. Noem is devastated. The family was blindsided by this, and they ask for privacy and prayers at the time,” Noem’s representatives told The Post."

Spain probably is lost. Unfortunate. But then much of Western Europe is lost.
Russia Ukraine was never difficult. Putin wanted to recreate the security profile of the Soviet Union. He had no desire to go to Paris, or even Berlin. He did want to get to Moldova, and he wanted to grab the government of Ukraine quickly to try and end the war that way and install a puppet that would allow him to isolate the Baltic states. Poland was always going to be the hard one, and perhaps he would have been happy to just stay there at the Polish border - but geographically I believe his best stopping part was around Warsaw. I'm not sure the Russians could beat Poland at this point, if they ever managed to get there. Posted by: Black JEM at March 31, 2026 12:29 PM (GZYu7) 292

We patrol the seas. Couldn't we signal that ships flying the Spanish flag are no longer protected? I don't know that we could morally ask the captain of one of our Navy to stand by in case of a pirate attack, but we could float the idea. Maybe a statement like: "We understand the Spanish position and will extend protection to their ships at sea for sixty days or so until they are able to put on place the mechanisms necessary to protect their shipping concerns."

From the National Gallery of Ireland.
The painting is only 15.6 by 23.7 cm. That's pretty tiny. In 1811, the engraver and publisher William Cooke approached Turner with a proposal to publish a print series entitled Picturesque Views of the Southern Coast of England. This watercolour, in which the waves are so accurately depicted, their frothy white crests being blown away by the strong wind, appeared in part six of the series published in 1815. The rigging of the ship labouring in the heavy swell, the clouds highlighted by a bright shaft of sunlight, even the gannets with their characteristic black wing tips are recorded in great detail. The ship, probably a Royal Naval vessel, is dwarfed by the dreaded Mewstone. This dramatic natural feature, which lies at the eastern end of Plymouth Sound off Wembury Bay, notoriously claimed many lives over the centuries. During the summer of 1813 Turner spent time travelling along the coast, filling sketchbooks with his observations."

I think that is the kind of painting that "commercial" artists aspire to, and can't quite hit. Not knocking them, someone has to make art for business offices and waiting rooms -- and it has to be at a competitive price point, so there is likely to be a discernable difference between that and fine art, even if you can't put it into words. Something to do with the amount of time it must have taken, the care and thought involved.

37 That ship looks like it's heading straight for the big rock.
Posted by: dantesed at March 31, 2026 09:36 AM (Oy/m2) For those of you who have never been on a sailing vessel... a lot of time is spent "heading straight for the big rock" only to tack away at the last minute. Since you can't go directly into the wind, you have to zig-zag or "tack" into the wind at an angle, which means that to get somewhere specific, you have to go in a different direction. Which usually means you're pointing the bow towards something that you'd rather not hit. If you get as close as physically possible before tacking its called "banging the corner". Racers have a saying that banging the corner is like doing your cousin - no matter how good it looks, its still just wrong. Posted by: Defenestratus at March 31, 2026 10:00 AM (WYStd) 100

Wall Street Flees Socialist Tax Trap: Apollo Ditches NYC for No-Tax Sunbelt
Apollo Global Management, the $900 billion asset manager, is done playing games with New York City's radical leadership. The firm is planning a second U.S. headquarters in either Texas or Florida — both with zero state income tax — and shifting most future hiring there instead of Manhattan. This move comes as democratic socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani ramps up his war on business to close a $5.4 billion budget hole. He's demanding a 2% surcharge on incomes over $1 million and higher corporate taxes, while threatening a 9.5% property tax hike if Albany doesn't deliver. When that failed, he floated raiding reserves and vague "savings" with no real plan in sight. Partnership for New York City CEO Steve Fulop nailed it: you can't keep vilifying employees and businesses then act shocked when they pack up and leave. "Treat this as a flashing warning sign," he warned. "When jobs go, revenue goes — and the affordability crisis gets worse." (Cont.) Posted by: rickb223 at March 31, 2026 10:14 AM (9E5Ho) 130
Apollo isn't alone. Citadel and Elliott Management already bolted for Florida. Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan are expanding big in Texas. The pattern is clear: high taxes, hostile rhetoric, and endless spending sprees drive talent and capital out of blue strongholds and into red states that reward success instead of punishing it.
New Yorkers voted for this. Now they're watching the tax base evaporate while the same failed policies — soak the rich, grow government — accelerate the decline. You can't tax what already left. Florida and Texas are laughing all the way to the bank. SOURCE NYPOST Posted by: rickb223 at March 31, 2026 10:14 AM (9E5Ho) 131

Jimmy Atkins’ business back in Ohio was running trade schools. But on Hilton Head, he took over a small company that specialized in long-term rentals. Property in the island’s gated subdivisions, called plantations in reference to the local antebellum history, attracted vacationing families and wealthy retirees. Corporate executives and global financiers descended by private plane to survey the frenzy some two decades into the island’s transformation.
At Harbour Realty and Rentals, with an office near Coligny Beach, Atkins came into contact with a teenage girl who would later claim to the FBI that she was sexually assaulted by him and a young Jeffery Epstein, the infamous and now deceased sexual predator. She alleged to agents that the two men also conspired to extort her mother to embezzle money. The mother eventually ended up in prison. Posted by: SMOD at March 31, 2026 10:16 AM (RHGPo) 138

The woman also alleged abuse by a man named “Jim Atkins” during the same time period. Leonard identified “Jim Atkins” as Jimmy L. Atkins of Fort Mitchell, Kentucky, earlier this month. He passed away in 2003 at the age of 69.
On Sunday, The Post and Courier uncovered records that confirmed details of the woman’s testimony on Atkins. This included Atkins’s relationship with an Ohio college, his age, his hair color, his general appearance, and details about his employment in Hilton Head, South Carolina. May I point out that on the 1 million or so records about Epstein there are ZERO.ZERO mentions of Carolina. Posted by: r hennigantx at March 31, 2026 10:22 AM (/+uur) 154

This move comes as democratic socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani ramps up his war on business to close a $5.4 billion budget hole. He's demanding a 2% surcharge on incomes over $1 million and higher corporate taxes, while threatening a 9.5% property tax hike if Albany doesn't deliver. When that failed, he floated raiding reserves and vague "savings" with no real plan in sight.

So they're approving the torture of children. Fucking disgusting. I really hate when the judicial system gets in the way of medical services. Laws that prohibit doctors from discussing abortion should also be illegal. The main driver for this is the money some folks will make from confused parents for ruining their kids lives and driving many of them to suicide. Silly rabbit...states' rights are for red states who want to marginalize LGBT people, not blue states that want to protect them. Being able to engage in psycho-sexual abuse of children seems to be a common thread in conservatism. These free speech absolutist are going to get people killed. Looks like you can yell fire in a crowded room under this Supreme Court. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented. “The Constitution does not pose a barrier to reasonable regulation of harmful medical treatments just because substandard care comes via speech instead of scalpel,” she wrote.

Joseph Mallord William Turner; Born April 23, 1775, London, UK & Died December 19, 1851, London.
Known in his time as 'William Turner,' was an English Romantic painter, printmaker and watercolourist. He is known for his expressive colouring, imaginative landscapes and turbulent, often violent marine paintings. His artistic style developed over his lifetime, moving away from Romanticism—bypassing the following rising style of Realism—and, instead, with his later works being a significant precursor of and presaging the later Impressionist and Abstract Art movements that arose in the decades after his death.[1] He left behind more than 550 oil paintings, 2,000 watercolours, and 30,000 works on paper.[2] He was championed by the leading English art critic John Ruskin from 1840, and is today regarded as having elevated landscape painting to an eminence rivalling history painting.[3] In 1969 art historian Kenneth Clark wrote of Turner: "He was a genius of the first order—far the greatest painter that England has ever produced..."[4] Wikipedia So definitely not Will Turner, a pirate by blood, who had several adventures with Capt. Jack Sparrow. Yes, would hang today's selection. Posted by: Trying to fuhgeddaboudit at March 31, 2026 10:46 AM (NFX2v) 206

from SCOTUS majority opinion:
Consider, too, where the State and dissent’s logic leads. Not long ago, many medical experts and organizations, including the American Psychiatric Association, considered homosexuality a mental disorder... On the view Colorado and the dissent advance, a law adopted during that era prohibiting counselors from engaging in the “substandard care” of affirming their clients’ homosexuality would have been subject to only rational-basis or intermediate-scrutiny review—and likely upheld. Today, tomorrow, and forever, too, any professional speech that deviates from “current beliefs about the safety and efficacy of various medical treatments” could be silenced with relative ease. Post, at 24 (opinion of JACKSON, J.). It is a consequence Colorado freely acknowledges. And one the dissent embraces. Post, at 23–26, and n. 9 (opinion of JACKSON, J.). So what if that kind of reflexive deference to currently prevailing professional views may not always end well? Posted by: WisRich at March 31, 2026 10:49 AM (G0vdT) 213

Posted by: TheJamesMadison, discovering British horror with Hammer Films at March 31, 2026 10:48 AM (bcF3R) Always remember that the internet, by definition of it's anonymity and the chase for approval, encourages extremism- at least of expression. Someone says something extreme- Trump tortures puppies! Then someone else goes 'Oh, I bet he does!' Then multiple people are sitting at their screens or phones and thinking 'I should have said that.' So they try to come up with something even more extreme to type. Because what you say on the internet is who you are on the internet.

from SCOTUS majority opinion:
Consider, too, where the State and dissent’s logic leads. Not long ago, many medical experts and organizations, including the American Psychiatric Association, considered homosexuality a mental disorder... On the view Colorado and the dissent advance, a law adopted during that era prohibiting counselors from engaging in the “substandard care” of affirming their clients’ homosexuality would have been subject to only rational-basis or intermediate-scrutiny review—and likely upheld. Today, tomorrow, and forever, too, any professional speech that deviates from “current beliefs about the safety and efficacy of various medical treatments” could be silenced with relative ease. Post, at 24 (opinion of JACKSON, J.). It is a consequence Colorado freely acknowledges. And one the dissent embraces. Post, at 23–26, and n. 9 (opinion of JACKSON, J.). So what if that kind of reflexive deference to currently prevailing professional views may not always end well?

The Great Mew Stone is a rocky island south of Plymouth Sound in England. "Mew" is an Old English term for a kind of seagull.
If seagulls frequent this rock, it's probably covered with mewpoo. Posted by: MartynWW at March 31, 2026 01:49 PM (M9zxq) The Morning Report — 3/31/26![]() Brian Stewart, the Chair of the Hernando County Democrat Party, was charged with simple battery following the incident in Spring Hill. He was booked Saturday afternoon and released two hours later after posting a $1,000 bond, according to the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office. . . A statement from the Hernando County Conservatives organization claims Stewart shoved a “permanently disabled” military veteran who “served our country with honor and distinction” and then struck him in the head with a megaphone.OF course that is but one example but that it was not just some random braindead AWFL or Soros rent-a-thug but a local Dem bigwig. Of course, what we witnessed over the weekend and indeed starting with the anti-war protests and civil rights riots of 60years ago right up until the present day has is roots in the classrooms and lecture halls of academia. Members of America’s largest teachers’ union, the National Education Association (NEA), were back in training in February, this time for a confidential webinar entitled “Advocacy and Free Speech Rights for K-12 Educators.” The leaked slide deck, posted by the watchdog group Defending Education, reveals that the NEA is less focused on American students’ stagnant test scores than on training its members to become activists, while using misinterpretations of the First Amendment as a shield. The February session complements the union’s December 2025 in-person training on “Advancing LGBTQ+ Justice.” That event counseled attendees to “develop a toolset of tactics for dismantling systems of privilege and oppression.” Students in New Mexico will learn more about the January 6 Capitol riot and climate change than the moon landing. New Mexico high school history guidelines contain over a dozen references to the January 6 riot while only mentioning the moon landing once. The guidelines, part of the New Mexico Instructional Scope for History, are largely focused on racial and gender grievances and encourage teachers to promote Democratic politicians and lament how the richest men in the United States today are “mostly white.”. . . “These state level documents expose a troubling pattern by education activists of pushing leftwing political and social biases into K-12 classrooms as established ‘facts,'” Staley told The Daily Wire. “Students and families deserve an education that values a politically neutral approach to weighing different sides of issues, not political indoctrination.” Of course The Land of Dis-Enchantment will not be teaching so much as brainwashing their children about the events of that day. No mentioning of Ashlii Babbitt or Roseanne Boyland and how they were murdered in cold blood by Nancy Pelosi's, Christopher Wray's and John Brennan's goons with badges and disguises. No Kings, but Red Guards disguised as Democrats abound. Unless and until Academia from pre-school through post-graduate is utterly seized and restored to some semblance of sanity. Meh, that requires the restoration of morality, ethics, sanity and american/western cultural values across our entire society. Did the Long March through the institutions bring us to our knees, and if so, is there a road back? Have a great day!

I recently found a picture of my grandfather and my grandmother and my mom in 1933. He is 24, she is 20, my mom is five months old. Polio, tuberculosis, typhus, and whooping cough were all real threats. Not to mention tetanus and about 1 million other diseases. Plus they are in the middle of The Great Depression where there was no money and people were literally starving. When I get frustrated with the current state of affairs I look at this picture and remind myself that we actually have it pretty good.

"Newsom’s Wife Brought Children to Red States to See Racism, Sexism, and Bullying Firsthand"
I gotta share something here. During the recent County Council primary we were speaking with a local businesswoman who transplanted from the downtown Baltimore area many years ago. She was supporting one of the Republican candidates who exudes the wafting scent of a Progressive wearing Republican clothing. And she told us that she is ready to leave the State due to the hidden racism that is embedded here. And then yesterday at the Post Office, I had a total stranger who moved here from NYC three years ago explain to me how he is uncomfortable with the deeply hidden racism in the State, that isn't visible unless one is trained on where to see it.

Iran chose poorly when it indiscriminately launched ballistic missiles and drones at about every other country in the Gulf region. Qatar, UAE, Oman and the Saudi's took the brunt of it. Kuwait took a few hits too, as did some infrastructure in Iraq.

Democrats seen as taking back the House after Republicans quit in numbers not seen since the Great Depression
A record number of House Republicans are not seeking re-election...As of Monday, a record 36 Republicans have announced they would not run... Always the same cycle..... 1. Republicans get us into a war. 2. Economy implodes. 3. Democrat is elected and the economy starts to recover and the country heals. 4. Republicans get re-elected. I really miss the days where I'd go into election day hoping my preferred slate of candidates would win, but not dreading what would happen if they lose. Like McCain vs Obama in 08, I vastly preferred Obama winning, but didn't fear the end of the Republic if McCain won. Trump is doing everything possible to centralize everything in the oval office so the other branches of government won’t be necessary. There will be no sanity until the right wing propaganda/disinformation media ecosystem is addressed. we're going to need to take care of the billionaire problem it will be harder for democrats to run against "fresh face" republicons than "retiring" republicons responsible for all this bullshit.

My intuit is sitting right there next to your intuit. And I see that this go-around, the Democratic party is intending to have a candidate in EVERY State house race. No uncontested races in the mid-term. Something that nationally, the right seems to be unable to grasp. You might lose if you run. You Can't win if you don't.

from your keyboard to God's ears!!! btw to the "how are people doing?" question us personally really well. lots of business and I mean we own the house here so not affected by high interest rates on loans. the kids are a mix - one living in town here has low rent and they're thinking of moving to a new place with lower rent! rents in Philly are going down in a lot of places, and there's more availability. take from that what you will. up north things are still pretty rough, it's so expensive to rent in these not-so-nice places, I don't get it. and hard to keep up with cost of living, even in upstate NY! it is wild. so I dunno. we have problems in PA but NE has more problems than we do seems like. not great for young people up there. they do want to stay after graduation but I'm like ... why? skiing is nice but come on guys Posted by: BlackOrchid(j+aD2) at March 31, 2026 08:20 AM (j+aD2) 147

In many ways, President Trump reminds me of President Reagan. Both exemplify unwavering patriotism, true leadership, and courage in life-threatening circumstances. Both of them inherited disastrous leftist policies, nihilism, and cultural decay, and both vowed to make America great again. Both earned the gratitude of nations and individuals by making the world freer, more peaceful, and secure. And both were spared for a reason.

He later • said Trump engaged in “clearly impeachable conduct” over Jan. 6, • Backed DeSantis in 2024: Roy supported Ron DeSantis in the 2024 Republican primary instead of Trump, increasing tensions. • Opposition to Trump-backed legislation: Roy [created all kinds of issues on spending bills, etc. Posing for the cameras if you will.] • voted against a Trump-endorsed spending/debt-ceiling bill and publicly criticized GOP leadership; Trump publicly attacked Roy on social platforms and urged a primary challenge. • Public floor rebukes of GOP leadership: • Roy’s high-profile floor speeches and refusals to back Trump priorities (citing fiscal and constitutional concerns) drew Trump’s ire and led Trump to label him a “RINO” and call him disloyal.

KanekoaTheGreat
@KanekoaTheGreat What a misleading headline from The Daily Mail. The ATF ran a tool mark analysis on a bullet jacket fragment recovered from Charlie's autopsy. The result was "inconclusive" — not "no match." The jacket was too fragmented to compare, which also partially explains the lack of an exit wound. The bullet shattered on impact. "Inconclusive" means insufficient evidence to draw any conclusion. It doesn't mean the bullet "did NOT match" the rifle like the headline says. The defense wants to use "inconclusive" as exculpatory evidence — but the prosecution wants to run chemical or molecular analysis comparing the jacket alloy to ammunition recovered with the gun. Unlike tool mark analysis, it doesn't require an intact bullet. The defense is trying to block that testing from happening. That's the nuance of the real story.

Btw, Chip Roy was big in favor of Paxton’s impeachment, which was a Bush Machine farce just like Trump’s impeachment trials. So I don’t trust Chip Roy on anything, he’s a machine politician playing the part of a conservative, but only so long as it’s convenient.

For the record - I was not a big Oaxton supporter originally, I voted for his opponent in the original primary. I was willing to listen to the claims that impeachment was justified, and Dade Phelan’s promise that all of the Hard Evidence of Corruption would be shown to the public. So I watched that story closely.
And when it came time for the “hard evidence”, every bit of it was “my girlfriends cousin told me that Paxton said all kinds of stuff to her, but no she doesn’t want to talk about it herself” and “my brother knows a contractor who said Paxton asked a buddy of his for a kickback to get the job, but no they don’t want to talk about it themselves.” It was the most disgusting farce of school kid fake stories I’ve ever listened to.

That is incorrect. You can vote in the Republican runoff if you did not vote in the Democrat primary. You don't have to have voted in the Republican primary.
Posted by: I used to have a different nic at March 31, 2026 09:11 AM (ExV1e) Thanks, I missed that wrinkle. But past results show that those who didn’t vote in the first round are very unlikely to vote in the second; and since the Democrat primary was hotly contested with a heavy (for them) turnout, there won’t be crossover voting. It’s a fun example to watch. Cornyn has a lot of institutional support, but zero grass roots support. Paxton is hated by all the institutions, but the grass roots voters are devoted to him.

Ice core records from Antarctica document continuous variations in atmospheric greenhouse gases over the past 800,000 years, delineating the glacial–interglacial cycles that characterize the late Pleistocene epoch. Studies of blue ice areas have extended these records back to 2 million years (Myr). The evolution of atmospheric greenhouse gases before this time thus remains uncertain. Here we use discontinuous ice core snapshots spanning 3.1–0.5 Myr ago (Ma) to show no marked change in mean methane (CH4) and a small decline of about 20 ppm in carbon dioxide (CO2) between 2.9 Ma and 1.2 Ma, followed by stable concentrations (±10 ppm) across the mid-Pleistocene Transition. Our findings are based on the shallow ice cores drilled in the Allan Hills Blue Ice Area (BIA), Antarctica. The records are complicated by postdepositional processes and probably represent averages over glacial cycles weighted by climate-dependent differences in accumulation rates (which we assume to be constant). Samples aged 2.8–3.1 Myr, affected by respiration and corrected using stable carbon isotopes in CO2 (δ13C), yield mean atmospheric CO2 levels indistinguishable from the early Pleistocene (250 ± 1

More likely, Amazon oversold them and lied to you about them being lost. I assume they refunded you. Posted by: Grumpy and Recalcitrant I did get a refund, no questions asked. And I actually managed to pick up a couple of Team-brand drives to replace them, at a lower cost per gigabyte and TLC rather than the QLC used in this model, so I'm not too put out by it. Those drives have doubled in price in the last month, so not a minute too soon either. Posted by: Pixy Misa at March 31, 2026 04:27 AM (BLOW1) 11

So yesterday morning I had mentioned my dissatisfaction with our new Kwikset smart door lock.
Yesterday afternoon Kwikset reached out to me, and we spent about 20 minutes on the phone discussing the ongoing issues with the lock. Very nice young lady, intelligent and knowledgeable about the ins and outs of the lock, both mechanically and smart feature sides. After going over all the what-nots and stuff, she unasked told me that first they were sending me a complete new unit. Upon receipt and install, if the issues persist, the whole thing jumps to the next level of tech support to see if there are additional factors causing the problem. So.....things are happening.

>>Got my MacBook Sky yesterday. Command + space bar is your friend and should become the main way you open apps or try to find things. Command + tab will bring up all open apps and let you cycle through them. Command + q closes them. Install home brew, it's a Mac terminal package manager that will allow you to install software via the terminal. Install kitty or ghosty, these are terminals and are superior to the built in Mac terminal. Install Chrome or Brave web browsers, install vim extension in either of them. This will allow you to navigate the web browser with keyboard commands. I would recommend installing aerospace. At the end of the day, you should be able to drive your Mac via the keyboard and using the mouse as little as possible. This will make using your computer so much more productively .

In other tech annoyances, GoComics has (apparently sometime between yesterday and today) implemented a new security layer to protect themselves from attacks. They've outsourced this to some outfit called 'bunny.net' that requires the running of WebAssembly in my browser.
Thing is, I'd long ago turned off WebAssembly in my browser (FireFox) in order to protect myself from buffer overflow attacks that could break out of WebAssembly's sandbox. End result: I'm not reading three comics at GoComics anymore as of this morning. Oh well. I did dash off a note to them explaining things, and that I didn't expect them to revert their changes just due to me, but I at least wanted to let them know that not everyone out there is willing to let WebAssembly run, and why.

As for the taxes, I looked back at the last three years of state returns. I claimed my SS deduction then. The deduction used to be right there on the main form, like on the Fed 1040.

I almost missed it and was thinking I had a *big* payment to make -- enough so that I should have sent estimated payments to the state last year.

@45/Wolfus:
Glad the furry thugs are well, and of course they're hungry! ;-) As to the School Bus driving: One of the biggest problems when driving a bus is the fact that when making a left turn, you have to turn WIDE so you don't impinge on the opposite lane for the pair of lanes you're turning into (ie, don't go over the other guy's stop line.) And yet, that's a lot easier than making a right. Right turns are a pain in the ass in a school bus, mostly because the bus hangs out an additional distance behind the back wheels, and those wheels are the pivot point in a turn. You must drive straight out into the intersection until the edge of the curb is just past the middle of your service door, and then begin your turn. If you do it right, and while watching your lower mirror on the right, your back right wheels will JUST miss the curb and not go up over it. You're also trying to balance your front left of the bus not touching the car at his stop line in front of you to the left, as well as making sure your back left of your bus doesn't swing out and hit a car as you turn. Oh, and did I mention making sure bicyclists aren't coming up on your right side while turning right? Posted by: Grumpy and Recalcitrant at March 31, 2026 06:15 AM (O7YUW) 52

SF chocolate company recalls products for being spiked with Viagra ingredients
By Itzel Luna, Los Angeles Times March 30, 2026 The San Francisco Bay Area's Gear Isle recalled the products after they were found to contain undeclared prescription drug ingredients used to treat erectile dysfunction, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced last week. The products, sold online across the U.S., were found to have sildenafil and tadalafil. The ingredients could cause a "life-threatening" drop in blood pressure when mixed with nitrates found in prescription drugs, according to the FDA. The two recalled products are Gold Lion Aphrodisiac Chocolate Male Enhancement Sachet and ilum Sex Chocolate Male Sexual Enhancement Booster. The FDA initially issued a warning in February advising consumers not to purchase the second item after confirming the product contained tadalafil.

The latest Windows 11 update isn't. (Tom's Hardware)
Microsoft has pulled the update entirely because it didn't work. At all. Anyone else remember the days when you could buy software - like an OS - and you installed it... then you forgot about it unless you had to reinstall (like a new computer)? There were no updates for security they failed to build in? When they actually tested stuff before it went out the door? When you owned the software? Posted by: GWB at March 31, 2026 08:55 AM (AtYqS) 88
@87/GWB: I remember those days, though they weren't as great as you remember. Software companies (including those who made operating systems) would simply not talk about the major vulnerabilities in public, and there wasn't the absolute pantsing you could give a company on the Internet that there is now if you did discover one. You could also call a company (even a large one) and talk to an actual person who would be willing to take in your bug report. (It was a bit of a black hole after that, but you hoped your bug report got to an actual development team.)
Not always though, smaller companies behind single products could be very communicative with regards to bugs, and that was an absolute joy to deal with. Anyway, back to the large OS's: When the next version came out, it was assumed enough people would buy it and some would upgrade, that vulnerabilities that were addressed quietly between the versions would be enough. Viruses tended to spread on boot sectors of diskettes at that time as well, which meant the speed of the infection was a LOT slower and not necessarily successful for the virus. Sure, some spread on BBS's (Bulletin Board Systems) but that was rare. Posted by: Grumpy and Recalcitrant at March 31, 2026 10:00 AM (O7YUW) 89

When I asked "GPT-5 mini," (via DuckDuckGo,) what the Real increase in U.S. Treasury Debt was from Jan. 21, 2024 until Mar. 24, 2026 in Y2K$, it hallucinated that the debt had shrunk by $175 billion. When I asked for Feb-2026$, (which are smaller ... because there are MOAR of them,) "GPT-5 mini's" hallucination shrank to $80.5 billion. When I challenged the results, the excuse for the obvious mistakes included "rounding errors." . According to a simple Google spreadsheet I put together using the same inputs as ShatGPT, I saw that real debt increased for both the Y2K$ case and the Feb-2026$ case. . At this point, I would trust a high school retard to do a better job than AI. Posted by: Marooned at March 31, 2026 10:14 AM (kt8QE) 91

Quote I "We believe our policies are consistent with the law and reflect our commitment to fairness, opportunity, and building the strongest possible teams," NFL executive vice president Jeff MillerI normally don't comment on the Quotes of The Day. Between this Miller guy and his gutless, spineless, testicle free boss Roger Goodell I can't stand the NFL and it can't go broke fast enough. I grew up close to Green Bay and have always been a Packers fan. But since 2020 I've given up on the league. The kneelers, the "Hands up" bullshit, politics entered the game. So I now spend my Sunday afternoons doing anything but watching football. Quote II “Neither the bases are authorized, nor, of course, is the use of Spanish airspace authorized for any actions related to the war in Iran,” Spain's Defense Minister Margarita Robles With allies like this who needs friends? What our open borders types never want to discuss out loud is: What happens when Europe becomes a Caliphate and possesses nuclear weapons. Looking at another gutless, spineless, testicle free boi named Quote III ‘I was so small, I was just a walking boob throughout the whole of school. I definitely looked super awkward because I had nothing on me apart from boobs.’ Summer Robert ![]() apitalism in space As part of the reshaping of NASA being pushed by NASA administrator Jared Isaacman, the agency today announced major changes to its future programs in low Earth orbit, on the Moon, and in exploring Mars. Video of these changes can be viewed here and here. The Moon NASA will now focus all work in its lunar program on getting to the surface of the Moon. Lunar Gateway is “paused,” though the language of NASA’s press release suggests more strongly that it is dead, with the agency already trying to figure out ways to “repurpose” its already built components. NASA will instead ask for proposals from private industry and its international Artemis partners to ramp up as soon as possible a phased program to establish the infrastructure on the Moon needed for the lunar base. This new focus begins with “up to 30 robotic landings in three years, starting in 2027,” and at least two manned landings per year beginning in 2028. The graph below, presented during today’s announcement, shows the basic plan for the next few Artemis missions, which will act as the manned foundation for this entire surface-focused program. The overall program will build out the lunar base in three phases, first to test some basic infrastructure using these smaller lunar landers, second to begin establishing the base’s foundational components with intermittent manned missions, and third to begin long-term human occupancy. It seems like this poor girl can't get an even break from the scolds and cuck bois. In a town where most celebrities can’t be bothered to acknowledge the military unless it’s a Veterans Day photo op with a sepia filter, one Hollywood star just did something that shouldn’t be remarkable — but absolutely is. Sydney Sweeney, the actress best known for stealing scenes in Euphoria and The White Lotus, took to her Instagram Stories to share a photo of her brother and deliver a message so simple it apparently short-circuited half the internet. “Receiving calls from my bro always make me happy when he’s deployed,” Sweeney wrote. And then she committed the unforgivable sin of being publicly grateful to the United States Armed Forces. “Thinking of all our boys and girls overseas and sending my love!

Earlier this week, Texas House Speaker Dustin Burrows directed a Texas legislative committee to study the possibility of adding “one or more contiguous counties of New Mexico” to the state of Texas. The committee has been instructed to study the constitutional, legal, fiscal, and economic feasibility of such a move and outline what steps would be required at both the state and federal levels.
Burrows framed the idea as a conversation about representation and economic alignment, particularly in the oil- and gas-producing Permian Basin region that stretches across southeastern New Mexico and West Texas.

Have we found a girl with boobs too big for Bulg? While I feel sorry for her for her condition, she's monetized the heck out of it. And when they're each 3x the size of your head, that's too big to be attractive. Didn't SDB (RIP) have a rule that 1x was the theoretical max for hotness?

You all need to find some clips from this weekdn’s convention of the socialist Canadian party the New Democrat Party that have gone viral. . It’s woke on steroids. If the Babylon bee had done this as a skit, people would have said come on guys it’s too much.
Everyone has to say their pronouns before speaking, they have pink cards for women and blacks to speak ahead of white men, then the blacks complain that white men got ahead of them. They are still eating masks. It’s a freak show. This is an actual major party in Canada and they win seats. It’s both scary and hilarious simultaneously.

Giorgia Meloni
@GiorgiaMeloni Mar 29 The Security Decree works. The preventive detention ordered for 91 individuals from the anarchist movement, deemed dangerous and who arrived in Rome for a demonstration unauthorized by the Police Headquarters in memory of the two anarchists who died on March 19 in the explosion of a bomb they were making, confirms the necessity of this provision. It does not serve to limit the freedom to demonstrate, as certain leftists claimed. It serves, on the contrary, to ensure that demonstrations take place in a peaceful and non-violent manner, as provided for in the Constitution, and to protect those who want to exercise that right in a civilized manner, without violence and without devastation. It is in this direction that the Government will continue to move: more tools to ensure safety for all and more protections for those who want to demonstrate peacefully.

One tiny man was hogging two seats and I asked politely to sit and he moved over (seeing as I was taller, lovely but with a mean crazy look in my eyes). The rest of my family were strap hangers, but not me.

Completely agree with the comment after quote number 1. The start of the NFL season was like the real start of the new year. Similar for MLB opening day.

Apparently a routine re-set of a launch clock timer somehow caused the second stage to ignite, directing flames into the first stage. Roasted a bunch of people outright, many got mired in an asphalt roadway that had melted.
IIRC the story, the engineers were running behind so the appartchek running the program planned a party on the launch pad as they were supposed to finish. This led to the engineers and techs working round the clock and someone left a valve open letting a toxic/flammable chemical to seep out It caught fire and then exploded killing a good deal of the USSR's best scientists, engineers, and technicians all in one go...

Artemis II is sort of like Apollo 8, but it's not going to go into lunar orbit, just a free-return fly-by. It will go "higher" beyond the Moon than any other Apollo mission and set a record for that, but it won't go into orbit. Why? Because the stupid SLS and Orion don't have the fuel/delta-v budget to insert into lunar orbit and get out. Orion/SLS is no Apollo/Saturn V. Ain't that just stupid?

Oh, they're going to use Elon's tankers. Big Time. This is what a boondoggle the SLS/Orion approach is. The lunar lander is going to be a modifed Starship, dubbed Starship HLS. It has to get the Moon and insert itself into orbit on it's own. Multiple refueling and tanker launched into LEO will be required to fuel an HLS version for its trip to the Moon. Orion carries the crew. The dock in an EPO/CoLA orbit (that stands for Elliptical Polar with Co-plane Line of Apsides -- I roll my eyes at their acronyms). Crew transfers to HLS to land. HLS then brings them back to Orion. At this point, you scream, if Starship is going to do all that, then why doesn't it just carry the astronauts itself to begin with?

Posted by: Kill a Commie for Christ at March 30, 2026 11:47 PM (iZy2L) The communist countries never saw the need to follow safety protocols - for example, onboard destruct systems if a rocket goes out of control. I remember seeing a cell phone video sent out of China after a failed rocket launch from the countries interior. (Don’t know if it was a satellite or military or whatever) Big rocket goes up, looks good, then it loses control and pitches down and there’s no self destruct - it flies at full power straight down into a populated area where all that rocket fuel made a real Big Bada Boom. The Chinese never reported it. When asked they said there was no crash because there was no launch. What about the video? There was no video, and if we find person who took video that does not exist, he get long stay in re-education camp. Posted by: Tom Servo at March 31, 2026 12:09 AM (ZPDpH) 215

It depends on a lot of things, including the bullet, the charge, the age of the ammo, the condition of the rifle chamber and barrel, and how it was modified from 8mm Mauser to 30-06.
I hit a blacktail deer with a glaser type hunting round from a .303 Enfield at 50 feet and it did not penetrate .

Viva il Duce! at March 30, 2026 11:25 PM (rbvCR) I go back to the day a friend mag dumped an AR15 into a large car battery. I think a 27 series, and all it did was poke holes in it and knock one of the caps off. I hit it with an M1 garand with one shot and the battery vanished, like removed from this earth. We found one small chunk of corner and maybe a few small shard of the plates. That was it, gone, scattered to the wind. That was probably 1960's surplus ammo. I could not believe the frigging power that round had. With that kind of energy I would figure a neck shot would pop his head from his body, unless there just wasn't enough area to generate the hydrostatic shock. I still can't believe that battery.

So, IT managers for an established product are always pissing off customers by messing with their "cognitive capital" of knowing how things work. It's a real cost, and I think that for very large projects like Windows, it could be worth it to bring in a cross-functional manager near the end whose bragline would be something like "saved us from pissing us all our valued customers, by cutting 1213 wholly unnecessary changes from the new version."

Artemis II is sort of like Apollo 8, but it's not going to go into lunar orbit, just a free-return fly-by. It will go "higher" beyond the Moon than any other Apollo mission and set a record for that, but it won't go into orbit. Why? Because the stupid SLS and Orion don't have the fuel/delta-v budget to insert into lunar orbit and get out. Orion/SLS is no Apollo/Saturn V. Ain't that just stupid?

I read the M1301 is based on the chevy colorado. Wtf were they thinking?? I have a colorado pickup as a kind of spare vehicle for hitting home depot, or taking shit to the dumps. The only thing I would do with that thing in war time is pack it full of C-4 and roll it into the enemy as a diversion.
Posted by: Berserker-Dragonheads Division at March 31, 2026 01:36 AM (snZF9) The original Chevy Colorado was a weird beast that look like a Tahoe, with the rear roof cut off, and an end gate fitted to the back of the cab. Just like the Honda Fridgeline (so named, because it is an appliance). But I thought the Colorado name was now used on a "mid-size" pickup; a little bigger than the old S10, but smaller than a base Silverado?

The Colorado is the mid sized P/U. The Avalanche is/was the full sized SUV thing.

Heavy water fun facts. Freezing point is 38.9F and boiling point is 214.6F. It's about 10% denser than normal water. Heavy water ice would sink in regular water. These large difference in these basic properties are due to the 2x mass difference between D and H. You can also play around with oxygen isotopes, say O-18 or -17 instead of O-16. This doesn't make much difference, because the relative mass difference isn't that much. This is the toxicity mechanism. All the biochemical reactions that power us are in water as a solvent. That big difference in properties due to the large relative messes up those reactions. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at March 30, 2026 07:46 PM (w6EFb) 48

The problem with The Epstein Files(tm) is that they don't prove what the Left and the nonMAGA Right want them to prove, which is that Trump diddled kids.
He didn't. But as long as they don't prove it, and don't disprove it, they'll still keep it in the air. Like the "dancing Israelis" on 9/11, or WTC7. Like the USS Liberty. The point - for the Candace Owens / Ron Unz crew - never was to exonerate Trump; it was to Keep Asking Questions. The uncertainty feeds their audience. They'll never be satisfied.

This is why assisted suicide is okay. If you are in a bad way, don't think of those you leave behind, the anguish you will cause, the heartbreak that will last a lifetime, because you are all that matters. This is not Marxism. It is not collectivist. It is pure evil. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at March 30, 2026 08:52 PM (ZOv7s) 179

Posted by: Kindltot -- Viva l'Italia! Viva il Re! Viva il Duce! at March 30, 2026 08:59 PM (rbvCR) --- Point of Order! Spain was excluded from NATO because a bunch of Communist sympathizers hated Franco. Because of that, Spain entered a bi-lateral treaty with the US. Later on, the pinkos were discredited and Spain was permitted full membership. When France decided to screw us in 1986 and made our F-111s fly around France to hit Khaddafi, Spain was not part of that. This is a new thing. The current government is horribly unpopular and it is abusing its power to make as many illegals voters as possible. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at March 30, 2026 09:12 PM (ZOv7s) 212

The Spanish had been awfully tight with the Germans during and after Franco, even if Spain was excluded from NATO. Even under Juan Carlos II there was a feeling in Spain that NATO was a problem. It comes out at times in the Spanish films and TV.

Okay, so here's my current take.
No, we are not putting boots on the ground. However, it is very useful to make people think we are. Here's why. 1. Iran will have to concentrate its ground forces to effectively resist it. That means pulling troops out of bunkers and putting them on roads where they are sitting ducks. Even midnight convoys won't work. Not now. They will use only the most loyal troops for this, and I'm sure we see the problem for Iran here. 2. It further exposes the grifters. Honest people can honestly disagree, express fear, but the grifters are being exposed. Trump's first term was pretty much defined by betrayals. He wants those people rooted out, not just for him, but forever. The traitors must be found and excised from the body politic. He's done a great job so far, but this is a decisive test that separates those with flawed judgement or apprehension from the bad actors. How do I know? Because if Trump wanted to invade Iran from the get-go, the signs would have been obvious. Note that he is activating units in reverse order: the door-kickers should have been in position first. Now they arrive as an afterthought. This is pure genius. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at March 30, 2026 09:50 PM (ZOv7s) 246

----------- I didn't understand why they didn't just paint the endzones with "KILL WHITEY!" Posted by: ShainS at March 31, 2026 01:05 AM (QHOVG) Quick HitsLibs of TikTokVideo here. Of course: The Biden White House edited reports about the covid "vaccines'" risks of causing strokes to downplay those risks, contrary to the precious science. White House officials edited messaging on the finding that there was a higher-than-expected number of strokes following COVID-19 vaccination, according to newly released documents. In January 2023, during the Biden administration, the White House changed wording on post-vaccination ischemic stroke from "moderately elevated" to "slightly elevated," the records show. Officials also made other changes, including removing the words "potential risk."More examples of the political edits to the precious science here. More in these two posts. Hunter Eagleman™"No Kings," huh?
I was informed by All the Best People (TM) that this would never, ever happen.

I looked at the criticism of the ballroom and saw mostly no problem. And it's paid by donations, donchaknow, marchers! Why do they care except TRUMP!? I LOVE that normal people have a sense of humor to correct the diagram. And use the red ink of importance! LOVE the blank stare by Rep Busted Hymen when Margaret asked that question. Deer meet headlights! Doh! I don't understand the marching with stupid No King's signs that still make no sense to me. I could retalitate and march with "You don't make sense" signs, wearing a cardboard box, but am too lazy.

My doctor, who I've been to maybe twice in 10 years prescribed anxiety pills and there's a nice lady that's been coming over. That's why I've been watching the worst horror movies I can find.

Heavy water (D2O, and there's also DOH, which will form instantly when H2O and D20 are mixed) is toxic. The hydrogen bond is stronger with deuterium due to the larger relative mass difference (D is twice as massive as H). The messes up all sorts of biochemical reactions in the body, slowing them down and so forth. About 25 - 50% heavy water would be toxic to lethal. You'd get there eventually if you drank nothing but heavy water for a week or two. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at March 30, 2026 07:27 PM (w6EFb) 168

Posted by: Stateless - Day 10 of 14 or so - extreme dog care at March 30, 2026 07:32 PM (Sco7b) I haven't looked at the ON budget lately, but it has been projected that something like 80% of its budget will go to "free" medical care alone in 2030. So killing people alleviates that to some extent. Privatization and not killing anyone would also work wonders but that means politicians lose power and that's not good, is it?

Heavy water is needed for nuclear reactors. It moderates the kinetic energy of the neutrons released during fission
Huh. "Heavy water reduces the speed and energy of those neutrons without absorbing them." - illuminem.com I'd thought the neutrons were just trapped in the deuterium making it tritium. That latter CAN happen, but usually tritium is made via lithium-6, which captures neutrons more easily. Lithium-7 will decay into tritium (and He-4 and a neutron).

Posted by: Trying to Fuhgeddaboudit at March 30, 2026 11:32 PM (NFX2v) FBI Director Kash Patel Eyes Releasing the Eric Swallwell Fang-Fang DocumentsFBI director pushes to release investigative files on Rep. Eric Swalwell: ReportsOh, like when they released the Mueller Report about the Russiagate hoax? Are you kidding me? He's one of the main weaponizers in Congress. Note that The Hill points none of this out. Oh! You mean the Administration is trying to interfere with an upcoming election by releasing files? ... In a statement to the Post, an FBI spokesperson denied improper motives regarding the investigative files. "The contentions in this story are incorrect," the spokesperson told the newspaper. "This FBI, being the most transparent in history, prepares documents for numerous different reasons, including for release to different agencies and departments to further review investigations that may have been opened under previous administrations." Swalwell said in September that he "fully" expected to be prosecuted by the Trump administration, pointing to his name in a book written by Patel in which he listed "government gangsters" who should be held accountable.If only. If only.
"RUSSIA IS RIGGING THE ELECTION TO HELP THE TRAITOR TRUMP,' they screamed as if all reading from the same script. Now Iran hacks Kash Patel's emails and that silence you hear is the media studiously avoiding the topic of which party Iran was seeking to rig an election for. Patel wasn't even the FBI director when this hack took place. This was back in 2020 and 2021 -- when Patel was a congressional investigator primarily known for uncovering the RussiaGate hoax concocted by Hillary Clinton. Hackers connected to the Iranian government accessed FBI Director Kash Patel's personal email and posted materials -- including photos and documents -- taken from his account, a person familiar with the breach confirmed to CNN. The hackers have published a series of photos of Patel from before he became FBI director that they claim were stolen from his personal email account. A source familiar with the incident confirmed the images' authenticity. The stolen emails appear to date from around 2011 to 2022 and appear to include personal, business and travel correspondence that Patel had with various contacts, according to a preliminary CNN review of the files with the help of an independent cybersecurity researcher.

I say the No Kings protests were astroturf, as Nancy Pelosi insinuated about any conservative protests.

_________________________ Allow me to translate: We really have nothing supporting this. Nor can we produce "three people familiar with the matter. In fact, it's necessary that it continue to remain untrue. Because, we can't try and push a political persecution narrative in the California Governor's race if there is actual substance to the story. We can't let republicans acquire the governor's mansion in California, and Swallwell has nothing of substance to run on. So, we're going to create a false narrative to get that spite and sympathy vote out there. Posted by: Orson at March 30, 2026 05:55 PM (dIske) Posted by: Case at March 30, 2026 05:55 PM (pvf3X) 78

Judge is a Trump appointee from the 1st term. We really got screwed when Trump trusted the wrong people for advice.
From wikipedia: In February 2026, Brasel ruled that U.S. Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) had likely violated the constitutional rights of thousands of detainees at the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis.[14] Brasel's emergency restraining order noted that detainees faced numerous barriers to accessing legal counsel and that "in planning for Operation Metro Surge, the government failed to plan for the constitutional rights of its civil detainees."[14] Her order required the government to allow non-citizens in custody the opportunity to contact legal counsel within an hour of their detention and before any out-of-state transfer.

Judge is a Trump appointee from the 1st term. We really got screwed when Trump trusted the wrong people for advice.
Posted by: Crusader at March 30, 2026 04:36 PM I think people need to be reminded that Trump had no real plans for a cabinet and no idea how he would do anything anything in his first term because he did not think he would win. IIRC it was the weekend before the election when he confided in his campaign team that he knew they could not win no matter what happened but they gave it a good try. He was literally blindsided by his win like everyone else in the country was. I certainly never expected him to win. While he was trying to organize a cabinet he was being attacked from both the left and the right on an hourly basis and was forced to constantly defend himself from minute one with the entire deep state, the courts along with the left and all of the rino's constantly attacking at him.

Posted by: Harry Vandenburg at March 30, 2026 04:52 PM (V4IXI) Prosecutors are hyper-aggressively slef interested, and conviction rate is a big factor in getting to the next level. A plea deal results in a conviction, ergo going to trial not only costs more and takes more time, there's the offchance that the perp skates. They don't give one flying fuck about public safety or "justice", only their careers* *The caveat is when they tilt at windmills for publicity and political advantage such as the specious charges leveled against POTUS Posted by: OneEyedJack at March 30, 2026 05:12 PM (zafwz) Posted by: Romeo13 at March 30, 2026 05:12 PM (mP0Kj) 133
One of my brothers is a federal agent. I had ask him before why they do a year plus one day. He said it’s to get around the First Step Act sentence reduction guidelines. If the sentence is one year or less (365 days or less) you have to serve the full sentence of one year, as the reduction credits don’t apply. If your sentence is great than 1 year (>365 days) then you do qualify. Hence why they do one year plus 1 day.
This person now qualifies for good behavior sentence reduction credits from 25-40%. The likelihood is this fraudster does 6 months or less. Crime really does pay. Posted by: Mrs Emma Peel at March 30, 2026 05:14 PM (np2zX) 134

I'm trying to work my way through the state income tax form. Sometimes I wish I had studied accounting.
Of course, when I would have started with that, we didn't have (affordable, let alone cheap) calculators. Urgh.

The state has no respect for taxpayer money. $250 million is stolen from hardworking taxpayers and one of the thieves gets a light sentence for paying back less than 1/250th of the stolen amount.
Peter St. Onge warned that the taxpayers are probably going to end up bailing out private credit as a number of the lenders (e.g., Blue Owl) have stopped allowing redemptions. Peter also pointed out that the banks are lobbying Congress hard to make it illegal for stable coins to pay interest because those accounts are paying about 4% while banks are paying < 1/4%.

‘ He claimed to serve roughly 1.5 million meals total and that the meals were provided by S & S Catering.’
1.5M meals. Imagine the infrastructure and resources to prepare and serve that many meals. The biggest professional catering companies in the country probably don’t serve that many meals in that time frame. But this lone asshole probably had a bare-bones LLC with maybe one to two employees, tiny office space, and no resources to serve hamburger helper, let alone 1.5M meals. The fact that nobody bothered to do any due diligence whatsoever on any of these companies makes it 100% clear to me that everyone was in on it, from top to bottom.

C3For decades people praised DeNiro for somehow managing to make his eyes empty and absent. Turns out, no, he's not a great actor, he's just brain-damaged IRL. When he "portrays" a man with no inner monologue who seems to be an animal motivated only by primitive instinct, that's just him.

They had one of those all-Lefty-hands-on-deck protests in my town on Saturday. It was on a major street but not Main Street, and there was no interference with traffic. About 75% greybeards, 25% students, I'd guess. No Kings, LGBTQ, Free Palestine, No War, No Ice, etc.
Some support honks, but also loud exhortations to fuck themselves, and many birds were thrown, including my own. Posted by: All Hail Eris, She-Wolf of the 'Ettes 'Ettes. at March 30, 2026 03:50 PM (kpS4V) 85

From early this morning, someone talking to an elderly white woman:
--------- Interviewer: “Why do you think there’s not a lot of black people here?” Protester: “Because a lot of them are afraid of being arrested. And they don’t wanna get arrested. They can’t afford it. They can’t afford the lawyers. They can’t afford the time off from work. And they’re afraid.” Interviewer: “Do you think black people are less likely to protest because they’re afraid of getting arrested?” Protester: “Yeah, I do. Because they know they’ll get arrested more than white people.” Interviewer: “What about voter ID laws? A lot of people say that suppresses the black vote.” Protester: “Yeah, because a lot of black people don’t have IDs. They don’t drive. They don’t have cars. They use public transportation.” ===== The media's narrative at work. Posted by: Martini Farmer at March 30, 2026 03:52 PM (AkEZC) 92

I mean, you do have to understand. A lot of faithless old folks, some who had no families (thanks to Roe V Wade hitting right when they would) and some whose families hate them, really have nothing to look forward to, nothing to "feel important with", except a path to obsolescence and death. This "No Kings movement" makes them matter, at least in their own heads. This gives their lives, as they are, meaning. When this ends (and the Dems dump them like they dump anyone no longer useful), many of them likely will, too.
So, I feel bad for them...and yet, I'd also like them to stay in their assisted living homes and have an ice cream party instead. Posted by: Nova Local at March 30, 2026 03:54 PM (tOcjL) 103

Finally, the protest babes!!
Saturday was great. I was horribly disappointed by two horror movies, watched coverage of No Kings Day 3 on MS Now AND watched 'Freddy Got Fingered.' Entertainment all around. Hollywood has had 25 years to dig deeper and 'Freddy Got Fingered' was actually the best movie I saw that day. It was bad and I can't believe they crapped $14 million on it, but it wasn't that bad. Lily white and no bitching about racism and no gays, And thanks to MS Now, Tom Green didn't even crack the top 7 most annoying people Saturday.

Regarding the Epstein Files.
Great News!! Variety reports there's going to be a movie! Sony Pictures Television is shopping a project about the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein with Laura Dern attached to star, Variety has learned. The limited series is based on the book “Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story” by Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald journalist who put a renewed spotlight on Epstein and his crimes. Dern will star in the series as Brown. The official description of the series describes it as “an explosive account of an investigative reporter exposing the secret plea deal between Epstein and federal prosecutors. Drawing from Brown’s experience as a groundbreaking reporter for the Miami Herald, the book and the limited series follow her relentless years-long investigation that identified 80 victims, persuaded key survivors to go on the record, and led to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s arrests.” Posted by: Stateless - Day 10 of 14 or so - extreme dog care at March 30, 2026 04:16 PM (Sco7b) 164

How many of the hand maiden people lived their lives hopping from one bed to the next until they aged out of it and they fantasize about a rich, powerful man claiming them and using them... sexually. His strong arms holding them down as he thrusts into them. There's nothing they can do, they're helpless against him. It's all BDSM fantasy time for leftovers.

During COVID the government repeatedly violated laws and the constitution. Ho-hum. In fact, if you didn't agree you were ostracized. And it wasn't the president; it was a local unelected health official calling the shots.
Kamala Harris received 0.0% of the democrat primary vote, and they made her their candidate solely because they realized their actual candidate, Joe Biden, was going to lose badly. That's the total reasoning behind the switch - we are going to lose with Biden, maybe we can win with Kamala. Voters? Fuck the voters. No kings blah blah. Such bullshit.

"The Georgia State University teacher"
The Democrats, in the long tradition within their party of creating a political operation funded with tax dollars (a "machine"), have duplicated it, not with direct government jobs -because we've created laws like the Hatch Act making that difficult - but with government-adjacent operations, like schools and universities, and " NGOs". Kill the Teacher's Unions, dismantle all the socially-conscious fluff curricula in colleges, and defund, without exception, NGOs. Let them run on donations, not taxes.

Walked right in and out. It was easy
ccording to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, the theft occurred on March 19 at the Supervisor of Elections’ headquarters on Cherry Road. Surveillance footage and digital check-in logs allegedly show Panicci, who was not on the original training roster, writing his name in, scanning his identification, and entering the room at 8:34 a.m. Surveillance footage captured the moment Panicci, seated at a voter registration kiosk, reached over to an adjacent machine and pulled a black-and-silver SanDisk USB from its port. Investigators say he then slipped the device into his right pants pocket and left the facility. Posted by: Hatari somewhere on Ventura Highway at March 30, 2026 02:39 PM (NtVYv) 39

You know, an obvious deterrent to this sort of shit would be to require only secure USB ports on any election-related devices. Make the ports something like Cannon or Amphenol connectors; multi-pin plugs/sockets with a screw or bayonet type locking ring equipped with holes to insert padlocks. Port designed to be "dead" until the locking ring is seated, and padlocks inserted.
See "tag out/lock out" switches on machinery for an idea of how this could be implemented. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at March 30, 2026 02:46 PM (5ZXSK) 73

Tony Seruga @TonySeruga
This is the guy that during the Presidential campaign claimed that he had mass cellphone records, and could track things like "57% of the attendees at the Kamala Harris rally in East Bumfuck last night had been to at least three Harris rallies in the past". He was trying to make the point that Harris had a corps of professional attendees that the Harris campaign was bussing from event to event. While I'd like to believe that, I never saw anyone corroborate Seruga's claims, nor did I see anyone refuting Seruga's claims, so I still don't know if he was blowing smoke or not. It was very odd.

This reminds me - during the '00 election a Dem election worker - Irv Slosberg was found with a stolen vot-a-matic. The Dem SoS refused to investigate.
A reporter interviewed the guy that managed the location the machine was stolen from and I remember to this day the guy who ran the site, some career Dem operative, had the biggest shit eating grin as he said he had no idea how Slosberg ended up with the Vot-a-Matic Posted by: 18-1 at March 30, 2026 03:12 PM (sKqQm) 143

It was a state legislative House seat, not a US House seat.
Not too concerned. The legislature is adjourned for the year (except for brief special sessions scheduled), so she won't have a whole lot of voting to do. And we'll get the seat back in November, just like we did in HD 35 in 2024 when Dem Tom Keen won a special there and the Dems were crowing. They weren't crowing that November when Republican Erika Booth (a school teacher no less) whom he beat in the special came back to win for the full two-year term.
