Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | More: Graham Platner, Known to Have a Dick the Size of a Grain of Rice, Has Lied About Why He Has a Nazi Totenkopf on His Flabby Droopy Moob According To What Story He Thinks His Mark Wants to HearI'm 99% sure this is the woman we heard about yesterday. I'm not 100% on that, though. This woman says that she was matched to Slim Prickens on a dating platform (Tinder, I think). She explicitly identified as belonging to the "I.W.W." which is the Industrial Workers of the World, a hardcore socialist group known during the Wilson era as "The Wobblies." This is an important point: She objects to the media attacking the credibility of Princess Tinymeat's female accusers based on being "Republican operatives," but she's a socialist. She supports a group that was once illegal and raided by Wilson's commie-busters. Is she a "Republican operative" too, Media? Did she pretend to be a hardcore socialist all her life as part of the Long Con against your Small-Dick-Energy Oyster Fuhrer?![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

The only good thing about soccer is watching college women's soccer. Sure, they aren't as "good" as men playing, but they sure look a lot better doing it. And they are all far more athletic than me anyway.
My alma mater has a good women's soccer team, and unlike WNBA types, they all look like nice happy girls who would be a pleasure to be around. And not freaks of nature. Posted by: SimoHayha at June 12, 2026 05:30 PM (/ZkOF) 109

Lots of people enjoy soccer and watch it. Either Clay or Buck ( from the Clay and Buck show) has a son who plays it. People here to watch it or play it are posting some interesting things that they're learning and newly appreciating about America. That is a good thing. Soccer has gained in popularity here over the years.
Then there are people who are bored to death with soccer and couldn't care less. That's o.k as well I had a BIL who played professional soccer for years. I'm not watching it, but I do know it's not quite kickball and playing well requires skill. Your mileage may vary, Posted by: FenelonSpoke at June 12, 2026 05:33 PM (PFs9e) 119

I hope FiFA loses their shirt on the games. That the big cities get scorn from the fans, and lose even more money. And small town America charms the visitors, like Freddy is charmed by the South. Posted by: NaCly Dog at June 12, 2026 05:34 PM (u82oZ) Despite the Lies of the Biden Administration and Its Egregiously Dishonest Spokeswoman Jen Psaki, the US Did In Fact Use Taxpayer Money to Fund Bioweapon Labs Across the Globe, Including in UkraineDirector of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is apparently back on the job and releasing more evidence that the federal government used American taxpayer funds for biolabs in well over two dozen countries. Former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci raised a firestorm of controversy after he apparently lied under oath about the American government funding dangerous gain-of-function research at the very Chinese government-linked Wuhan biolab where COVID-19 came into existence. But it seems that such risky research at our expense was not unusual or isolated to our number one enemy, China. DNI Gabbard, who has been at least temporarily absent from her position due to her husband's serious medical problems, came back with a bang on June 12. "Today, I'm releasing never-before-seen intelligence revealing new evidence of past US government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine," she posted on X.See the link for more. Now, she revealed evidence of "biolabs" which is not the same -- one might argue -- as "bioweapon labs." But as the Wuhan Covid Lab demonstrated to everyone -- they're the same thing. The idea of these labs is to collect viruses and then engineer them into highly infectious forms -- the deliberate "gain of function" procedures which involve either directly splicing in new components into viruses to make them deadlier, or just repeatedly running them through "mouse models" with similar DNA to humans to induce them to mutate into new forms. Then, they say, they will have the Bad Guy Virus they can design a Good Guy Vaccine to cure. But note that the first step of producing a vaccine is creating a deadly, infectious virus that never existed and probably would never exist but for the deliberate engineering of the virus by Frankenstein-like God-Playing scientific maniacs. Boy I wish I could think of a single example of one of their Frankenstein Viruses escaping from the lab and provoking a global shutdown -- a deliberate overreaction, which they felt was necessary, because they knew they themselves created the virus and might be executed for mass murder unless they could demonstrate they did everything legal and illegal to stop the spread of their created WMD weapon -- but I just can't think of a single example of something like that happening. That's a blessing, I guess. Members of the Krew Klue can remind me if something like that happened, for five Krew Klue P.I. Points.

"But as the Wuhan Covid Lab demonstrated to everyone -- they're the same thing. The idea of these labs is to collect viruses and then engineer them into highly infectious forms"
I actually think their true purpose is the same purpose as 99% of Democrap and leftwing efforts: money-laundering, grift, and theft. I doubt any of these "biolabs" in China or Ukraine (!) were doing anything but stealing our money and laundering it to leftwing causes. The tell was the videos of the Wuhan lab that looked about as advanced and secure as a middle-school lab where the most dangerous substance is bleach. Clearly, the lab was just stealing all the money and paying almost nothing for actual research or real labs. The problem was that they did end up creating something, and that something got out. But I'm fairly sure the lab was supposed to be just a front to steal our money. Posted by: Elric The Blade at June 12, 2026 03:46 PM (iFTx/) 71

>>The idea of these labs is to collect viruses ....
The original idea of these labs was to close them up clean without their knowledge and material being sold off, and to keep the scientists employed to prevent them from going rogue and working for the pakis or another hostile nation. The secondary idea is that these labs were on the front line, and able to understand and detect anything the Ruskies were doing, intentionally or accidentally. Later the Chinese. But any big pot of money attracts flies, and any government solution first priority is to keep the funding coming by making the problem bigger, so they evolved into a grift to justify bigger budgets. That grift included making diseases they could protect us against. Posted by: bob (moron inbobnitus) at June 12, 2026 03:48 PM (FPIaX) 92

Whoops.
They finally got caught — and the receipts are all right here.Trump's DHS just approved a plan to cross-reference every mail-in ballot in America against federal immigration databases. The USPS is now barcoding every ballot with a unique tracking code. One ballot. One barcode. One count. And sanctuary states like California and Oregon cannot opt out — because the postal system isn't Gavin Newsom's. It's federal.For two decades they told you there was no fraud. They called you a conspiracy theorist. They rolled their eyes. They appointed committees. And the whole time, the machine was running — 3AM ballot trucks, drop boxes with no cameras, nursing home harvests, envelopes with no postmarks.That machine just ran into a federal barcode, a DHS database, and a president who read the fine print.In this video: — Why Trump's March 31st Executive Order is the most surgical election integrity move in decades — How DHS is cross-referencing every ballot name against federal immigration records — and what that finds — The drop box loophole nobody closed yet — and why it's the next battlefield — Why California and Oregon are panicking and legally have no way out (Cont) Posted by: rickb223 at June 12, 2026 03:52 PM (+gsxO) 113

I actually think their true purpose is the same purpose as 99% of Democrap and leftwing efforts: money-laundering, grift, and theft. I doubt any of these "biolabs" in China or Ukraine (!) were doing anything but stealing our money and laundering it to leftwing causes.
== Its not implausible. Before it was illegal to do in the US, they were still sending money to labs all around the world. You could justify it on a collection site basis. And justify it on a well we don't want to transport after collection. Ultimately, this was a twofer. there is the stated public purpose. there is also an clandestine purpose. Fauci had an intelligence agency role that was non public. Also, a nifty way to hid from FOIA requests and a lot of congressional oversite is to subcontract the dirty work to private contractors. Which of course, creates the potential kickback cycle doesn't it.

Fauci searched for and found a virus that would kill the extremely elderly and those with respiratory comorbidities. He financed the gain of function research to make it more contagious. It was his intention to turn this virus loose on the U.S. to effectively kill off the oldest generation and the others who cost the healthcare industry the most. This would save the U.S. over half the healthcare expenditures every year, thus providing funds for Universal Healthcare. He wanted to be a hero by secretly killing off millions. This is the democrat mindset.

Fauci searched for and found a virus that would kill the extremely elderly and those with respiratory comorbidities.
== Interesting relationship with the virus and testosterone. If you got it, it damaged your ability short term to produce testosterone. If you had low testosterone levels when you got it, you were much more likely to have severe covid. A large percentage of male patients who survived, had sustained low testosterone for months and some with prolonged erectile dysfunction.

Holy crap! Most amazing of all; it's in The Atlantic.
How Britain Became as Poor as Mississippi: A case study in self-sabotage One generation ago, Britain was a major global power; today, it is a middling one, gripped by sclerosis. Taxation is at the highest level since World War II, yet public services have deteriorated. The National Health Service, the celebrated pillar of the British cradle-to-grave welfare state, has a backlog of 6 million patients—almost a tenth of the population—waiting for treatment. The health service now has to spend more money settling maternity-malpractice claims than it does on actually providing maternity care. Many Brits can neither obtain an appointment with a publicly funded dentist nor afford a private one; in a 2023 survey, one in 10 reported doing DIY dental work, in extreme cases extracting their own teeth or gluing broken crowns back together. https://archive.is/6q9Gp Posted by: Archimedes at June 12, 2026 04:11 PM (Riz8t) 235

By sheer coincidence, just last night I watched the 1977 David Cronenberg horror film "Rabid," starring porn actress Marilyn Chambers. (Side note: She's actually a pretty good non-porn actress, too.)
The plot is...basically, this Covid-19 post. Marilyn gets in an accident, needs plastic surgery, gets taken to a clinic where they do an experimental procedure involving some kinds bio-engineered stem cells, she "recovers" -- but is now infected with a rabies-like virus, which she (and this is what the movie is infamous for) injects into people with a sort of steel-tipped penis that emerges from a new vagina in her armpit. Then the bio-engineered virus spreads throughout the population, and martial law is declared, and fascist totalitarianism descends upon the land. The end. So yeah, a very prescient film about what really happened with Covid-19. (Except for the steel-tipped penis part. Or...are they hiding that from us too???)

Wonder what he's got?? From the CA Post -
Reality star turned Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt may have lost the battle in last week’s primary — but in a shocking new video — he’s announced he’s going to war. Pratt claimed in a video released Friday that he has damning evidence that would force the two Democrat candidates — “morons” Mayor Karen Bass and socialist city councilmember Nithya Raman — to resign. “If you think we uncovered a lot of fraud and evil in this campaign, just wait,” he said, as video clips, memes, and AI-generated content drive his narrative of a broken city that’s only going to get worse.

Posted by: SpeakingOf at June 12, 2026 04:27 PM (6ydKt) Zephyr Penoyre and Emily Sandford proposed a "spaceline". Spool out like 400000 kilometers of Kevlar. Tie one end to Sinus Medii on our moon. Go through the Earth/Moon L1 point (85% of the way to the Moon), dangle the rest of that role to maybe 110000 kilometers above us (and above GEO). That takes a lot of the stress off getting to the Moon. Once hooked into the spaceline, you just ... take the elevator. Replace Kevlar with some of the newer shit and you can dangle that to 90000 km. Also the rope seems taut enough you could tether a yuuuge space station to the L1 midpoint. Posted by: gKWVE at June 12, 2026 04:31 PM (XWPh2) 341

Yeah, those two authors I mentioned dismissed the Earth/Moon eccentricity which is half Mars' (0.05ish) or the Earth's tides or the Sun's gravity (this last might be negligible). There are a lot of other questions I could pose like how to get 300000+ km of Zylon string from Earth to L1. But tying it to the Moon might not be as bad as these other questions, because it's counterbalanced by string dangling toward Earth. I guess you bury the end of the string to the regolith and drop a big bomb on it, to make it glassy. Posted by: gKWVE at June 12, 2026 04:42 PM (XWPh2) 377

"Her latest technique is either to ignore the concept entirely, or -- when I force her to look at a house's pictures on Realtor -- to bring up the negatives immediately, with no mention of positives."
Wolfus, this is exactly what I did to my husband, when we downsized at the end of lockdown. I am not commenting or asking about your particulars. Our situation, he was very ill and not going to get better (thanks, lockdown), and we HAD to move for single level, accessibility, plus cost. I had to pretty much liquidate a four bedroom house with a basement that we had lived in for 25 years and raised a family in, to meet a two-month deadline to transfer to a two bedroom apartment. It was awful, but inevitable, and the last thing I wanted to do was get into the details of something I knew was going to happen, didn't look forward to at all, and was too busy and stressed to get interested in. Four years later, he is three years gone, and every day I thank him for what a good choice he made, as I really like it here now, even though I hated coming, and drove him batty with my refusal to engage on that.

He accused a Western person of Racism. But it didn't wholly work. Oh, it worked on the fucking communist media and their political representatives, of course. What would have happened if there had been no CCTV footage? I'd say another Henry Nowak situation. He told Belov: "I am entirely satisfied by proof beyond reasonable doubt that the trigger for all of this were the comments that you made. "I accept that as a result of the comments you made abuse was directed at you, which included swear words, including you being called a 'f****** creep and an immigrant'. "The words of the children were eloquent to describe your behaviour given your age and their respective ages." He went on: "Having made the sexual remarks to the children you then, enraged by the fact that they became angry and started shouting abuse at you, followed them." He said rather than leave the area or call the police he instead called his sister, who "immediately on arrival engaged in attacking one of the females". ... The pair are due to be sentenced on August 5.His defense was that he saw the girl secretly concealing a knife under her shirt -- nonsense! -- and only pushed her in a sort of Reverse Anthony Karmelo self-defense move. We will never recover from these levels of Cultural Enrichment.

No, Ace, you've got it slightly wrong. The girl with the axe and the knife IS the 12-year-old girl he was sexually harassing. What's confusing is that in the famous video, it is her 13-year-old sister's voice you hear saying "Stop harassing my sister!"(i.e. stop harassing the 12-year-old).

There is no victory for the natives there that doesn't involve running the guilty parties out of town on a rail. They knew exactly what they were doing.

Midland Memorial Hospital received nine victims from the shooting, spokesperson Tasa Richardson said in a statement to CNN.
“Four are in the operating room and five are stable,” Richardson said. The hospital went on lockdown around 8:20 a.m. CT “due to an active shooter event,” Richardson said. Shortly after officials said the suspect was found dead, the lockdown was lifted. Midland is in West Texas, about halfway between Fort Worth and El Paso. Authorities have not released any information about the suspect or a possible motive for the mass shooting. Gee....I wonder why.......

Didn't that Belov say he was being "disrespected" by the little girls? So, best case scenario, he was teased/"disrespected" (he wasn't, but anyway) and that was his goto response to assault children. His "culture" that he either had natively or that he developed in the New World because he could use it as a weapon too empowered him to attack the most vulnerable.
Seems this "disrespectin'" virus is sickening the West all over. See, if you use words the "victim" doesn't like, he can beat/kill you. How many times do you see arguments turn into full on, spittle-flecked rage and, if capable, murder?

"Scott Adams said (essentially) move away from blacks and he was cancelled."
Adams had enough money to be uncancelable, though not enough to force his health insurance to stop being cunts, or bypass them entirely, unfortunately. He basically could fund his own soap box, the lowest tier of "fuck you money". Things are bad enough for us peasants though that we can't openly take his advice.

"This isn't "anti" racism."
The woke use "anti" in a different meaning than the rest of us, on purpose. The woke want the non-woke normies to think that when the woke say "anti-racism" that what's meant is "against racism" (how the non-woke define it) But the woke really mean "anti" in the sense of "the opposite of." In the woke worldview, only white people can be racist. So what's the opposite of prejudice against a group? Prejudice against their "oppressors". Normal worldview: Racism = prejudice against a racial group by any other racial group. Anti-racism = the absence of racism. Woke worldview: Racism = prejudice by white and only white people against any other racial group. Anti-racism = prejudice against against whites.

To be fair, most of Reddit sides with the girl. Most...
Nobody is siding with the adult male, but nothing justifies her carrying weapons. It’s not a case of who is right and who is wrong here. They were both in the wrong and should both face the consequences. I do feel sorry for a 12 year old who is in a position where she can obtain and walk around with an axe & a knife - that is a clear signal that she does not have a good home life. nobody involved comes out of this looking good. Guy is a fucking idiot who should've known better, kids were typical mouthy kids, and the one with the axe and knife was a huge idiot, and a statistic waiting to happen. There's no such thing as "attacking" someone who has approached you with a giant knife and axe. It's self defence.

A huge component of this case is the girls social status. When this video was blowing up in the US, everyone I saw from the UK was saying we didn't know the real story. I saw MANY accounts on X claiming these lower class girls are all violent liars who carry knives around and attack people. The UK people who weren't willing to go that far were horrified that a girl would have weapons and claimed nobody should ever carry a weapon under any circumstances. Posted by: bonhomme at June 12, 2026 03:02 PM (mkw2N) Yes, class is a huge aspect. You never hear of Muslims carrying off daughters of MPs or businessmen...yet. They don't like the lower classes being able to defend themselves. Its instinctive. Posted by: Oldcat at June 12, 2026 03:05 PM (uhVAy) 198

Class figured in slightly into the grooming gang situation. Many of the girls were in group homes, ( similar to foster care) so, much like here, there is no one to advocate for them, ( the group home leaders were either in on it, taking bribes, or refusing to admit anything was going on, for fear of having their business shut down) or else the parents trashy, and quite happy to accept the gifts that these monsters brought to help in the grooming g process.

Gypsies are nominally muslin but are inveterate liars and thieves.
Posted by: Minuteman at June 12, 2026 03:03 PM (47/pr) They're a type of cloth? I know some of them used to live in tents, but... They're usually not Muslims, or at least in the west. They generally claim the religion of whatever country they're in as protective coloration. They have their own religion which is a mutated offshoot of Hinduism. They originally came from India, not the Middle East, and left there under hazy circumstances long before Mohammed had his first teenage fantasy about that sexy goat his uncle owned. Posted by: Yo, What It Is at June 12, 2026 03:17 PM (IG3/x) Autocorrect makes them cloth. The Islamic bent of the Romani of Eastern Europe is an artifact of Ottoman times. It's the easiest way to not pay the jyzya. They will claim to be whatever works in their favor, as long as there is no expectation of having a semblance of ethics.

Posted by: GWB at June 12, 2026 05:03 PM (kU0PQ) Democrat Lawmaker: If You Don't Give Us Reparations, We'll Stop Voting for DemocratsRep. Summer Lee, D-Pa., said during an interview on Sunday that Black Americans would stop voting if they aren't given reparations. ... "And that's what they do," she continued. "Because, again, they're trying to disenfranchise you. Because if you believe that you're never going to get reparations from this system, then you tap out, and you don't just tap out of the conversation, you tap out of the system. You don't want to vote anymore. You don't participate anymore." "And they know that that's how they don't control Congress," Lee added. "That's how you can get your school boards, your board of supervisors. They want us that far out of this system. So right now, we fight for reparations because it's owed us. It is owed us, so we're not going to back down on that one way or another." Lee reintroduced a resolution in May that, if passed, could give federal dollars to the descendants of enslaved people brought from Africa to the United States. Former Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo. -- who lost her 2024 primary to a more moderate Democrat -- introduced the reparations bill in the last Congress. Bush's bill, unveiled in May 2023, called for $14 trillion to be put toward reparations payments for descendants of slavery in the United States, but it did not go anywhere. Lee told "The Native Land Pod" that she wasn't surprised Democrats weren't backing reparation efforts. "I'm not shocked that my colleagues are not on it, that Democratic colleagues aren't on it," she said. "Again, there is a level of comfort in this building that sustains people. And I know that the people who don't want reparations back a lot of my colleagues, Democrat and otherwise. So no, I'm not shocked, but it is why we have to keep people on the outside encouraged." The Democratic congresswoman was asked about how reparations would work in practice, and about what host Andrew Gillum said was how the right has made the term reparations so "raggedy, ugly, so unattractive that White liberals are avoiding signing onto it." "The reality is, is that the cowardice that liberals are able to show when it comes to all types of things that sound scary, but we know you have, you know, just data, evidence, empirical evidence behind it," Lee said. "And that comes with -- that comes with police accountability, that comes with criminal legal reform, that comes with reparations, right?" ... "We know there will be pushback," she said after she reintroduced the proposal. "Reparations are a proposal to level the playing field, but the only way we could ever have a level playing field is by remedying the harms that have been done by the system." But Lee signaled on Wednesday that the long odds would not deter her.Well, good! You secure that bag, bae.

It's funny that the Democrat Party has so fully embraced black supremacism now, over the past decade.
Because the black American population is in a massive baby bust. Asians are the only major demo with a worse birth replacement rate. And, to make it even funnier, the only real loyal voting group within the black demo are the Boomers, the ones who grew up in the Civil Rights Era. Every age group beneath that vote at far less rates. So, a good part of the radicalization of the black electorate is that the only major group of younger ones that vote are the hard left because the rest just gave up on voting. I suspect black influence on American politics is going to see a weird nosedive over the next generation. This is their peak. If they don't get reparations now, it's never, ever going to happen. And it's not going to happen now. Posted by: TheJamesMadison, discovering British horror with Hammer Films at June 12, 2026 01:14 PM (0OHXL) 80

And USA would just be another third world nation, without the blacks that made us so successful ... right?

After the Civil War, and somewhere north of a trillion dollars in government assistance, reparations are well past paid.
I've heard something like 60% of employed black women work for the government. For most companies, if you're black, you can be one of the worst candidates for a position and still get the job. For most universities, you can not only get in, but get scholarships when Asian and white students with equivalent grades and test scores don't get in.

A dark part of me wants to see what would happen if you gave all blacks reparations. I think it would be Hilarious to see where that money ended up eventually. The car purchases, alone, would be funny.
I don't much care for Ben Shapiro (despite his sister's boobs"), but he always makes a valid point in reference to poverty. It is a curtural choice. And, the vast majority of poverty stems from lack of discipline and poor prioritie choices. Seeing that behavior on steroids would be entertaining as hell.

Posted by: Gref at June 12, 2026 01:20 PM (5rh/l) ===== Most Hispanics consider themselves white because they're...Hispanic. Descended from the people from Hispaniola. From Spain. They're as white as Italians. So, black people with a D after their name screaming about the evils of white people not paying them money for slavery hits them in ways that those who adhere to intersectionality don't understand. They just see brown skin which means oppressed so they much support the other oppressed. To make it even worse, blacks will not (NOT) allow anyone to supplant them at the top of the intersectionality stack. This is the Dave Chappelle situation. He's not anti-trans. He's anti-trans taking the top of the intersectionality stack because he's more oppressed than they are. So, they actively make enemies of everyone who try to play the game that blacks dominate, racial grievance politics in America.

This is fantastic news. Since "African-Americans" never will be "paid reparations," if they stop voting the Democratic Party will essentially cease to exist as a party of national stature. Sure they might win a few local elections in places like Vermont and oregon, but never again would they control the House, the Senate or the Presidency. Fine by me.
Hey c-- it just happened to "Labour," the UK's version of the Democratic Party. Their support utterly collapsed, and now they are an irrelevant second-tier fringe party. What would happen next? Well, I predict the Democratic Socialisrt Partry will step up t fil the power void on the Left -- just as the Green Party is now replacing the Labour Party in the UK. The Democratic Socialists are even more extreme and more toxic than the Deomcrats, but they're alo retarded, unsophisticated, and don['t have a 200-year-old "party machine" mechanism behind them, so it will take a long time dor the DemSocs to get up t the usual D level of curroption and chicanery.

Posted by: NR Pax In the Third World, from what I have observed traveling on Uncle Sam's dime, there is a thin veneer, similar to the old colonial system, of modernity where the cloud people go to hotels, restaurants, shops, enclaves of homes, where one is shielded. It is when you go outside the bubble and have to deal with the rest of the country that reality sinks in. That, and dealing with governments and the hatred often between different tribes in the same country. For the most part, on my foreign deployments, we spent most of our time outside the bubble.

I've heard stories all over the map on this. Some people will swear to you, "It's called an oil check and it happens all the time." Other people will tell you, "I wrestled for years and nobody did it. If guys find out you do it regularly, they'll beat your ass." Wrestling is weird as hell. It's perfectly acceptable and even encouraged for you to blade your hand into a dude's crack and grab a whole handful of ass to move a guy around. That much I do know. As to whether digitally poking a dude up the butthole is normal or not, apparently that depends on the era, region, and whether you're talking to someone who actually wrestled or is just repeating what others told them.

Slavery was legal.
As far as I can research it does not appear the US Government owned salves. Yes, they may have contracted companies that used slaves but they were not the direct owner. So how could the US Federal Government owe reparations? USA sacrificed 4000,000 Americans to end slavery by force, about the same as WWII.

I took the boys to the community pool yesterday.
6 high school girls showed up and were hanging out nearby, close enough for me to hear their conversation. I live in one of the reddest counties in the state, a small exurban area outside of a major metro. These girls, 17-19 years old, were having a roundabout conversation about how they were all going to have 3-4 kids each, about how long it was going to take them to marry (some in the next couple of years, others no later than 29, then they'll be really mature enough to know if they love someone enough, you know), but all with plans on no more than 2 years with their husbands alone before they started pumping out kids. It all started when they were looking at the kids playing in the pool and about how cute they all were, which led to thoughts about how cut their neighbors kids are, etc. Gen Alpha girls, grown in a conservative area, all talking about pushing replacement rate up personally. I mean, I don't know their thoughts on climate change, partisanship, abortion, or whatever, I just know that a random group of 6 high school girls in the conservative part of the nation were talking about having bunches of kids because that was just the culture they were raised it. It's normal. They're one of several. They're surrounded by medium sized families. They're just going to have a bunch of kids. Just an anecdote about how conservative areas lead birth replacement rates. Posted by: TheJamesMadison, discovering British horror with Hammer Films at June 12, 2026 01:40 PM (0OHXL) 229

Posted by: bonhomme at June 12, 2026 01:23 PM (mkw2N) ====== AtC was talking about this on X. Violence within the context of sporting events is a weird place in law. Essentially, it's a moving target of "how acceptable AND normal is this action in the sport"? Getting hit by a baseball? Normal. Getting punched by the pitcher? Not normal. Getting hit by a puck? Normal. Getting punched by a hockey player? Also normal. Where does digital penetration appear in wrestling? Apparently, it's surprisingly normal. So, in terms of the law, it's going to be very hard to prove anything in court. Posted by: TheJamesMadison, discovering British horror with Hammer Films at June 12, 2026 01:25 PM (0OHXL) _____ Also hard to prove intent when it's already legal to put your hands in the crotch and butt area as part of a legit maneuver. By contrast, there's no issue with intent when a pitcher punches you. But this was a tranny so he was never gonna be charged with anything. Contrast that with the poor white guy who got absolutely railroaded by fake claims that he fingered a black girl at a college party. Posted by: Elric The Blade at June 12, 2026 01:41 PM (iFTx/) 234

143 Reparations? OK I have list:
Hundred of billions of damage form rioting since the 1960's Hundreds of billions of destruction of urban property values due to criminal activity. Hundreds of billions of increased taxes to pay for increased budgets for more police, criminal justice, and prisons. Untold amount from destruction of public schools I could go on.

As to whether digitally poking a dude up the butthole is normal or not, apparently that depends on the era, region, and whether you're talking to someone who actually wrestled or is just repeating what others told them.

It's not all black people. But clearly it's many. What's coming out now is what came out following Obama's election, and each engineered racial explosion since. A whole lot of black people openly expressing what they've always believed about white people, not something they just started believing after the latest outrage du jour. It's OK to murder white people, they've caused every problem, they're guilty of oppression just by existing, they owe us. I have to keep this in mind from day to day, it would be stupid not to.

Werewolves had a great of movies for a while:

Posted by: ace at June 12, 2026 01:48 PM (1wjle) "Howl" is okay. It's got some good parts. But, its low budget shows up in the endless repletion of events.

I've seen some unintentionally hilarious YT videos by black Americans who've gone off to live in Africa. Most of them end up quite disillusioned at the reality of life in their ancestral homeland, complaining about the many difficulties. The bureaucracy, the lack of infrastructure, how expensive everything is, how dangerous it is, and the natives cheating and overcharging them because they're from America and therefore rich. Also they can't get their Gatorade and their favorite snacks on a whim.

Staged violent rights may become rare. Treasury Secretary Bessent and Acting AG Todd Blanche announced recently that their departments will hold NGOs and charities that fund riots will be criminally liable for violations of existing Fed laws. Immediately after this announcement the riots outside the NJ ICE facility stopped.

Since none of these blacks have ever been a slave, how are they going to prove it. Most of them don't even know who their fathers are. There is no way to find out.

In Pennsylvania, Black immigrants—primarily from West and East Africa—make up a large and growing share of the foreign-born population. Reportedly, Somali population statewide is estimated to be roughly 1,000 to 1,050 individuals. The Greater Philadelphia metro area is home to an estimated 120,000 Black immigrants, with roughly 50,000 originating directly from Africa. Top Origin Groups: Liberians (the largest African nationality group), Nigerians, Ethiopians, Ghanaians, and Sierra Leoneans. There are also fast-growing populations from North Africa (e.g., Egypt and Morocco) and Central Africa (e.g., Cameroon). Pennsylvania is home to an estimated 10,800 to 12,600 Liberian-Americans (and lots of illegals). The vast majority reside in the Greater Philadelphia area, which hosts the second-largest Liberian community in the United States. African immigrants are highly concentrated in Southwest Philadelphia, followed by West Philadelphia. (DNC Redistricting.) Posted by: L - No nic, another fine day at June 12, 2026 02:22 PM (NFX2v) 411

Great idea, Reid. Let me help you pack. Also, about those reparations. What about the many black people who have white ancestors? What percentage of reparations should go to them, since not all their ancestors were slaves? Do people whose ancestors weren’t in America during slavery days, owe reparations? Are immigrant native Africans owed reparations, since they came here voluntarily? I don’t think you’ve actually thought this through. Posted by: RebeccaH at June 12, 2026 03:06 PM (VFung) 416

In support of President Trump‘s Executive Order to end federal funding of dangerous gain of function research around the world, and increase transparency and accountability, ODNI will continue working with partners across the Administration to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what “research” is being conducted.
Most of them are probably researching various livestock diseases. Those are, after all, a global problem of vital importance to everyone. Root out the ones that are deliberately trying to make those livestock diseases transmissible to humans, and leave the legit agricultural functions alone.

The musical, directed by Sam LaFrage, played to sold out houses during its developmental presentation at Asylum NYC. - lol - appropriate place Inspired by a viral Twitter thread that asked, “Did Anne Frank ever acknowledge her white privilege?”, Slam Frank imagines what happens when a progressive community theater company decides to transform Anne Frank’s story into an intersectional, multiethnic, genderqueer, Afro-Latin hip-hop musical.

This is a fundamental "crossover" appearance for Vance's future presidential campaign. He's planting a seed in this interview. I suspect he's going to portray himself exactly opposite of how the media has tried to describe him giving the viewers of the View pause. It's not going to change many minds, but that's not the purpose. It's exposure out beyond Trump's coat tails. I am surprised that the play callers for the Left didn't shut this down before the first press release. Posted by: Orson at June 12, 2026 12:45 PM (dIske) 143

But an anonymous source from Iran told CNN that Trump pinky promised to give them the state of Alabama in exchange for opening the strait. That's definitely what Trump would do. I mean, after two months of him just giving Iran everything like $300 billion just to come to the negotiating table (which didn't happen), what else can we believe? Posted by: TheJamesMadison, ---- @trump_repost - 2h The terms that Iran leaked out to the Fake News have NOTHING to do with the terms that were agreed to, in writing. What they said, including their weak and pathetic statement on having a deal, bears no relation to the truth. Very dishonorable people to deal with. With them, there is no such thing as dealing in good faith. AMAZING! Also, their totally rebuffed Drone attack last night against Indian Ships leaving the Hormuz Strait is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.

My next computer is going to be a ground up build.
Posted by: Reforger There is one year grace period for those on Windows 10 that either allowed online backup or paid $25 bucks or something. But, there is a company that installs security patches (not upgrades, etc.) for old windows versions that goes back to at least Windows 7. The problem there is that you have to either use unsupported unsafe browsers or something like Supermium or the Firefox analog. If you are still running 32 bit machines, you are now pretty much SOL unless you pick one of the dwindling number of Linux distros specifically for it. I got a circa 2000 BX2 running Debian Trixie, barely, in order to remove data from a hard drive--windows 98 would no longer boot nor install. That was last summer and was the last Debian Linux 32 bit version. As soon as the insane prices for new hardware go away, I will be building one that has enough umph to run containers and get rid of my history museum of computers that still run specific useful programs that I don't want to pay to upgrade.

I strongly suspect that Vance gets given the jobs that Trump wants done for some reason, but which nobody else wants to do because they stink. Like talking to Navarro.

212 Movie trailers are mostly awful these days. No longer teasers but condensed versions of the entire movie.
Posted by: Ordinary American at June 12, 2026 12:58 PM (fZiTB) ====== It's long been known by movie marketers that that's how you actually drum up interest in the wider audience. You have to tell them what they're going to see. The trailers that are really just vague teasers don't gin up nearly as much interest. Zemeckis knew this in the 90s, which is why Cast Away's trailer goes all the way to the end.

I recall paying (iirc) $40 for another 2 MB, so I could better play my Falcon flight sim. So in that sense, RAM is cheap now (per MB) .. but yeah, I've heard prices have gone up, I assume because AI gobbles it all up.
Posted by: illiniwek To run Windows 11 comfortably, it takes a minimum of 16 gb and runs best at 32 gb or higher. To run Linux without containers, etc. it takes at least 8 gb, preferably 16 gb, and better yet at 32 gb and up. You can run Windows 11 or most distros of Linux with less than 8 but it is a slow as molasses in winter and getting frisky with windows open, etc can crash the programs. 32 GB of ram in DDR5 runs anywhere from 400-600 right now. Solid State Storage Devices made from memory chips have also skyrocketed especially in the higher capacities. Which is also dragging up prices on really old spinning rust hard drive tech. It used to be shortages of video cards driving system prices because of crypto mining, now it is AI bullshit that is gobbling up resources for frontier models. Three big consumers--Gemini by Google, Open Ai, and Anthropic with Claude with Elon's xAi behind the leaders. In fact, Elon's Space X is making bank renting resources.

Why would a movie make someone question their faith? Spielberg is just being an a-hole.
Posted by: Guy Mohawk at June 12, 2026 12:54 PM (n5tGW) ====== He's trying to gin up headlines because Disclosure Day was tracking really badly. It cost about $120 million. Thursday previews last night indicate a $35 million opening weekend is about what it'll get in the US. If it does decently overseas, it could crawl to the break even point by the end of a two month theatrical run, but it's doubtful. Posted by: TheJamesMadison, discovering British horror with Hammer Films at June 12, 2026 12:55 PM (0OHXL) From what I understand, the movie's premise isn't one that'll put butts in seats. ie. The US gov't has hidden the existence of aliens but now the evidence will finally be revealed and everyone goes nuts. Um...no. Various a-holes have been trying to reveal the "real" existence of aliens for decades. And for a while everybody was interested in the prospect, not scared, not losing their faith, just interested. But, now, I think they're just bored with the whole idea. And anyway space is Big. If you froze yourself for a 1000 years and woke up. Aliens still wouldn't be here.

It's not just AI gobbling it up now. It's the entire pipeline and investors assuming future AI needs.
Posted by: bonhomme It is a bubble and it will pop sooner or later. Basically all three of the main AI competitors are shoveling money on hardware into the furnace in order to be top dog. Google at least has an existing revenue stream from legacy systems, Open Ai and Anthropic are dueling to be the Google alternative with investor and borrowed cash--one of those companies is likely to crash and burn because neither are going much toward general AI but rather machine learning. That requires more and more training data that simply is not there unless you start feeding your models AI slop which ends up making the models insane. If you notice, Elon is being smart by keepin xAi behind the leaders and is actually making bank renting his older Colossus hardware to his competitors for billions per month. The insane needs for frontier model creations on shorter and shorter timelines is going to go bust in the next year or so. Not enough power, not enough chips, not enough buildings, not enough water cooling, and the insane demands are pushing pricing on these resources up.

Posted by: JackStraw It was never a secret. US after the fall of the Soviet Union was afraid that scientists would migrate to China, Iraq, Iran, North Korea, etc. in the 90's so they created a make work employment program for biological and chemical warfare scientists in the former Soviet Republics. Like always, once such a program is created, it never goes away and eventually the CIA got deeply involved in a big way with it and the program expanded to places like China and Wuhan. Knew some of the policy guys that originally set the program up as Sam Nunn and Richard Lugar were deeply involved in that. Same with retrieval of nuke stuff from those former Soviet Republics.

She's never gone below 50 in her life." But I stopped myself. Posted by: Hadrian the Seventh at June 12, 2026 11:28 AM (rqNGS) I was heading to NE Tx one time with the wife as a passenger. Speed limit changed, but I didn't back off cruise control. Cop asked me what my hurry was, I told him I just didn't hit the brake pedal to back down. I gave him my license and carry permit. He asked me if I was armed and I said yes. "Don't give me a reason to worry about it." "NOPE!" Then some idiot woman went blowing by us instead of slowing down as required, so he told me to slow down and have a nice day as he took off after her.

Cops have to deal with dumbfucks like the sovereign guy all day long. They’ve also heard all the bullshit excuses 100 times. If they encounter someone who gives them no problems, provides no bullshit they will very much appreciate it and more often than not, let you go with a “slow down next time” instead of a ticket. That happened to me just three weeks ago. It was not the least bit difficult to do. Posted by: Krebs v Carnot: Epic Battle of the Cycling Stars (TM) Humiliate! Humiliate!

Nah, speaking as a UofC grad, the University of Chicago has a very large and aggressive police force that patrols the neighborhood (along with the usual Chicago cops), and keeps the neighborhood relatively safe. During George Floyd, a lot of students called for abolishing the UofC police department - which I'm sure confused every alum, who knows perfectly well that the university wouldn't exist without the UofC police department.

I’ve seen YouTube lawyers say never admit guilt if pulled over. Sounds good in theory but I still subscribe to the “make life as easy as possible for the cop” theory. Yeah I guess I was going a bit fast has worked well for me over the years. It’s all about making the transaction as smooth as possible which maximizes the chances of getting off with a warning.

Obama was the Manchurian candidate in real life. Anyone who doesn’t realize by now that he’s a commie and a Muslim and hates America hasn’t been paying attention… I knew he was bad in 2007 when he first landed on the scene but I had no idea. I just thought he was another vain lefty with a silver tongue. No, this guy had a plan to gut the country and went about doing it. His best (actually worst) work was when he was the puppet hand behind shitbrains Biden 2021-25…. He’s let his freak flag fly with his monstrosity of a library

Posted by: javems at June 12, 2026 11:46 AM (zFsEm) So. I have a story. In the before times, my folks took my sister and I to the Dakotas. We did the tourist stuff in the Badlands, Mt. Rushmore, Little Bighorn, et al. Whilst at the Little Bighorn, we saw this enormous, anatomically correct bison statue. Friggin huge, it was. Entire families standing under it. I was about 14, my sister was about 9. She stood directly under the Bison Balls, pointed, and asked 'What is that?' My mother, prim, proper, sensitive to the judgement of others, didn't respond. To my sister, this failure could only be explained by the idea that perhaps mom didn't hear. So she tried again. Slower. At full volume. "MOM! WHAT! IS! THAT!" I'm absolutely DYING because I know this isn't socially appropriate AND that my mom can't really do anything but answer at this point. This was back in the day when there were those shoulder-mounted video cameras and shoulder-strap carry packs. I know with absolute certainty there are at least six families still watch their videos and die laughing.

Sovereign citizens are certainly a different bunch, though in some ways it's not a totally unforeseeable response to an ever-encroaching bureaucratic state that nickels and dimes you at every turn. Of course now if you assert your Constitutional rights at all, say right to remain silent or not providing consent to a cop searching your vehicle, they will sneer at you "what are you one of those sovereign citizens?"
So while they really don't have any law in their favor, and some are really on the fringe, I can also see them as something of an allergic reaction to ever-increasing petty tyranny - erecting a multitude of new offices and sending hither swarms of officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.

The Obama Center's Museum Tower looks like a castle keep. (Granite exterior with few windows.)
There's also the Forum Building and the Library (a branch of the Chicago Library), and the Home Court, a 60,000 sq. ft. athletics and recreation center. Parks and courtyards on the 19.3 acre campus include an Eleanor Roosevelt Fruit & Vegetable Garden; a garden pavilion named for former U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and the Ann Dunham Water Terrace. The Presidential Center is bordered by water on its eastern side, where the campus sits directly adjacent to Jackson Park’s historic West Lagoon. Very much a monument. (Hopefully, no more than that.)

(This was 1998 so PACER wasn't the thing it is now.) He was making a big deal about being a reserve major and the stuff he wrote was absolutely pure nonsense. I wish I could remember what it was but it was chock full of word games and such. I just kept thinking there's no effing way George Washington crossed the frozen Delaware so this guy could spout off like this. The federal court guys were happy to see us show up and deal with it.

Have you seen the video of the cop who pulls a woman over, and tells her he stopped her because he saw her using her phone with her right hand? She then holds up her right arm, and she's got no hand. She laughs and asks if they're done. The cop double and triples down after she just proved he could not possibly have seen what he claims to have seen. She had to take it to court where they dropped the charges minutes before the hearing. Posted by: bonhomme at June 12, 2026 12:25 PM (mkw2N) 304

Way smarter than Hillary and The Dr., she used her influential platform as First Lady and a prominent activist to champion civil rights, desegregation, and anti-lynching legislation.
In 1934, Mrs. Roosevelt joined the NAACP. Long after her husband's presidency, she served as a delegate to the United Nations, chaired the committee that drafted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and continued to actively support and finance grassroots civil rights groups like CORE and the SNCC.

There is road construction on a highway I take often to get into town. The barrels and lowered speed limit signs are always there, whether there is a crew working or not. I generally slow down whether I see anybody at work or not. If I do, I always get tailgated. You often get tailgated if you proceed at the regular speed anywhere on that highway.

"The Death of General Wolfe depicts the Battle of Quebec, also known as the Battle of the Plains of Abraham, on September 13, 1759. This was a pivotal event in the Seven Years' War and decided the fate of France's colonies in North America.
The battle was fought between the British Army and the French Army; the pitched fighting lasted only fifteen minutes. The British Army was commanded by General Wolfe. Although successful in holding the British line against the French and winning the battle, General Wolfe was mortally wounded by several gunshots. In death, General Wolfe gained fame as a national hero. He became an icon of Great Britain's victory during the Seven Years' War to people throughout the British Empire.

The Death of General Wolfe commemorates the 1759 Battle of Quebec, where General James Wolfe died at the moment of victory. (Wikipedia)
National Gallery of Canada: Benjamin West The Death of General Wolfe 1770 Category: European and American Painting, Sculpture, and Decorative Arts Wolfe’s death in the battle to conquer Quebec in 1759 still resonated when West painted this work, its defining image. The men around Wolfe include portraits of fellow officers and representative types – enlisted soldiers, a settler in green, an Indigenous warrior. Pose, gesture and expression – ranging from stoic reserve to tears – eloquently tell the story. Unusually, West added carefully observed details of contemporary clothing and weaponry to anchor the scene in reality, and so connect to his audience. His goal was not to persuade viewers of the literal truth of his painting, but to move them to emulate Wolfe’s self-sacrifice. The canvas made the artist’s reputation. -- General James Wolfe’s reported last words at the Battle of Quebec on September 13, 1759, were: "Now, God be praised, I will die in peace" (sometimes recorded as "Now, God be praised" (History Hit) An interesting lesson.

Posted by: Zombie Robbo I'm not too lazy to let AI look it up! The scene includes an Indigenous warrior kneeling in the foreground, representing the "noble savage" ideal and British colonial alliances, despite historical evidence suggesting no Indigenous fighters were present at the battle. Historical Inaccuracies: The painting is a figurative rather than literal representation; only one figure, Lieutenant Henry Browne holding the flag, was actually present when Wolfe died.

Pelley is in his 70s and wealthy. Why was he even employed to begin with? These fucks have nothing else in their lives. That’s why he’s so upset. It’s not that he’s lost a paycheck, he doesn’t need it. It’s because outside of his “work” he has nothing.
I have 5-10 years left before retiring early-ish. If I had the means I’d be retired today. That’s because work for me is a means to an end, not the end itself.

I'm not a big fan of Benjamin West's style. The people in the paintings always look wooden in their poses and faces. The colors are vibrant and the scenes often have have historical or mythological themes, which can be interesting. But the people in them seem more like mannequins. I prefer looking at the buildings and backgrounds and landscape features which better show his talent.
I won't judge the content of this one except to note that it isn't accurate. I had ancestors on both sides of the Battle of Quebec and some of them would have thought Wolfe, that Limey invader, got what he deserved. Posted by: JTB at June 12, 2026 10:13 AM (yTvNw) 130

Major-General James Wolfe (age 32) was a British Army officer known for his training reforms and, as a major general, remembered chiefly for his victory in 1759 over the French at the Battle of the Plains of Abraham in Quebec, in the final moments of which he was killed in action.
The son of a distinguished general, Edward Wolfe, he received his first commission at a young age and saw extensive service in Europe during the War of the Austrian Succession Posted by: Braenyard - some Absent Friends are more equal than others _ at June 12, 2026 10:18 AM (P4ocI) 141

To me, Trump has dropped a massive, major clue as to what is really going on in Iran--and everyone missed it.
When he said, "we've shipped over 100 million barrels and Iran didn't know" that was just the flash bang that hid the real action: 1) Iran doesn't know what we are doing. Even in the Strait that is key to their whole strategy. And he just laughed in their face and told them that. 2) 100% of the media source their info about what is going on to ... Iran and their proxies. Because no one in the media had a clue about that either. Keep that in mind when you read the next "expert" that says Trump is losing/being deceived/etc. by Iran.

Okay, had to look it up because AI is not the boss of me:
The figure in the center of the group on the left is Robert Monckton, one of Wolfe's commanders, while the figure cradling him is Lt. Isaac Barre. The Indian is not identified, except that he's a Mohawk, which makes sense. I pulled this from Fred Anderson's Crucible of War.

Posted by: Skip at June 12, 2026 04:45 PM (Ia/+0) The Morning Report — 6/ 12 /26
Good morning kids. And so the breaking news this morning is that Iran and the United States have come to terms to bring hostilities to an end, just as the clock was winding down to about three hours before the latest aerial assault by the USAF was set to take off. The main hangup, according to the source, was “sequencing,” referring to the order in which the terms of the arrangement would be fulfilled. Those terms have included reopening the Strait of Hormuz, lifting the US blockade of Iranian ports, releasing frozen Iranian funds and Iran’s willingness to discuss a plan to destroy, degrade or transfer its stockpile of enriched uranium and vow to never seek a nuclear weapon. While Iran has repeatedly demanded economic incentives before it would sign an MOU, Secretary of State Marco Rubio last week told Congress that lifting sanctions would only be considered in exchange for real nuclear concessions. Trump, meanwhile, has repeatedly refused to release frozen Iranian assets to begin the talks. The apparent breakthrough happened after US forces pounded Iran’s coasts overnight, targeting missile and radar systems in retaliation for the Islamic Republic downing an American Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz Monday night, as source familiar with the operation told The Post. The strikes lasted approximately four hours and ended shortly before dawn broke across Iran, targeting the theocratic regime’s “military surveillance capabilities, communication systems and air defense sites,” according to US Central Command. Trump announced the agreement hours after threatening to strike Iran “VERY HARD TONIGHT” in a Thursday morning post to Truth Social, adding that the US would also soon invade Kharg Island, a hub of Iranian oil refinement. “At some point in the not too distant future, we will be taking Kharg Island, and other oil infrastructure points, and assume total control of their Oil and Gas Markets, much like we have with Venezuela,” Trump wrote on Truth Social after 8 a.m. For me, the fly in the ointment as it were is that the Iranian regime and its ability to terrorize the world and its own citizenry as it has done ever since Jimmy Carter pig-piss be upon him allowed them to take over the country 47 years ago and metastasize into the sharp edge of the Islamic sword that has shed oceans of blood, quite a bit of it American, in that time. So color me highly skeptical... If (the Houthis) and Iran’s other proxies now watch the United States reach for the familiar off-ramp — sanctions relief and a deal that lets its terror network survive intact — they’ll read it as confirmation that pain pays, just as Tehran taught them. And a presidential administration that has shown its readiness to act would be squandering its own leverage if it trades pressure for the illusion of calm. The key point is this: The Islamic Republic is not Venezuela. Rodriguez and her cronies are corrupt autocrats who want to survive; pressure can change their calculus. Iran’s rulers are corrupt too, but the regime’s true believers also see themselves as participants in a religious struggle for jihad.And lest we forget, the Regime is propelled not merely by the personal venality and egomania of its leadership but primarily by Islam and its eternal quest for the subjugation of humanity, or its destruction should that goal be unobtainable. And bear in mind that with Shia Twelverism, unleashing Armageddon in the quest for global conquest is a prerequisite! Another Taqqiya sunrise?! It sure seems that way. Can the Mullahs outlast Trump's final two years or so and are they counting on perhaps a Democrat and RINO/isolationist assisted Congress coming to power via the midterms to keep them in power, just as Congress betrayed the South Vietnamese in 1975 and unleashed the Killing Fields on southeast Asia? We'll have to wait and see as the President is wont to say... Just as I'm posting this, I'm hearing news that the Iranian foreign ministry is now denying that any deal at all has been reached. Have a great weekend,

“Hamas can’t invade or bomb Israel right now, so it’s using the ceasefire to show the "Palestinian" people that it’s just as ruthless as ever.”
Remember how the 20 point “peace deal” with Hamas was going to remove Hamas from power within 30 days? Nobody else remembers that either, especially not Hamas.

Trump stalling again, I see.
The thing to remember is that we really don't know WHY. But you look at the details )if you have the patience), and when it gets to how they haven't worked out about handing over the uranium you know there's really no deal. The disturbing possibility is that the US missile shortage could be somewhat real, I think. But they could just be taking some time to assess what damage they did and update the target list. The talk of taking Kargh Island has to be just talk. You wouldn't say you were going to do that ahead of time if you were actually going to do it. Some sort of misdirection is going on.

Posted by: Ben Had at June 12, 2026 07:44 AM (5P5DO) That I agree with, the idea that it could be done by bombing alone was always a fantasy. The one truly important thing, as Trump himself has said many times, is their stockpile of enriched uranium. Do they turn it over, or do they keep it with only a vague promise to talk about it in the future? Posted by: Tom Servo at June 12, 2026 07:49 AM (orF8y) The goal is to end the Iranian problem, once and for all. That can only mean regime change. The trick is to do it without a massive land invasion. There are undoubtedly many other ways to do it, but it will involve insurgency. The Iranian people will be the boots on the ground. The uranium is the canary in the coal mine. It's the bare minimum for even a short term "fix". It's when they say they're close to a deal, but THAT stuff hasn't been worked out, you immediately know it's BS. Posted by: MrExcitement at June 12, 2026 08:04 AM (ovdkm) 96

For perspective, the United States military lost in Vietnam almost 10,000 aircraft (3,744 planes, 5,607 helicopters and about 1,000 UAVs). Out of 5.25 million sorties in the war. Our very low loss rate in Iran is a testament to our prowess in the air, and well-maintained aircraft. We've lost ~20 UAVs, 6 fighters, one KC-135. A C-130, 4 little bird helos and I think 2 Apache helos total. Well, and some ground losses. The E-3 Sentry was the one that hurt. Don't have a lot of them.

This is just enemy propaganda. If it's so "hard to believe" than why do you say it? The reason it's hard to believe is because it's nonsense - OBVIOUS nonsense. Maybe you can still get paid for TRYING though.

"Lesley Stahl-in Says Journalists Getting Fired Is Worse Than Child Trafficking, Nazi Torture Dungeons"
Here is a nice take-down of journalists feeling they are entitled to jobs and to do whatever they want, bosses be damned https://tinyurl.com/4yp8cehe Two paragraphs for you - "The Pelley situation illustrates a long-standing problem that has infected elite media culture: the belief that journalism is not a job but a calling, and that journalists, by virtue of their mission, are exempt from the ordinary rules of professional conduct. The press badge becomes a kind of moral shield. Editors at the upper level are obstacles to truth rather than supervisors with authority. And getting fired is not a professional consequence but an assault on the First Amendment. This is absolute nonsense, and it does real damage to the credibility of the profession."

“I don’t think that pro-lifers are white-supremacists, do you?” Gill asked Southern Poverty Law Center President Bryan Fair, citing the SPLC’s claim that “restricting and banning abortion is a tool the far-right uses to maintain white supremacy.” About 40% of abortions in the U.S. kill black babies, Gill said, despite African Americans only making up 13% of the population. “Does that sound like something a white supremacist would oppose?” he asked.

What would be the alternative? Do you think we should level Iran and then be on the hook to rebuild it and run it? There aren't always easily achieved perfect outcomes. Sometimes you take the one that sucks the least. You know what nobody talks about anymore? Venezuela. Trump made a deal there too, got control of the oil, got the Panama Canal back in western hands and we didn't have to rebuild a failed country. And there was no regime change. I was told that would be impossible as well. Apparently, all of the Middle Eastern countries are onboard with the deal at least for now, including Israel. And unlike us they aren't hearing the details of the deal from the media. Trump has earned my trust when it comes to issues like this. Posted by: JackStraw at June 12, 2026 08:59 AM (viF8m) 225

"A permanent and immediate cessation of war on all fronts, including Lebanon.

A U.S. commitment to withdraw its forces from areas surrounding Iran. Reopening of the Strait of Hormuz within 30 days under arrangements determined by Iran. Suspension of sanctions on the sale of oil, petrochemical products, and related derivatives, along with full Iranian access to the resulting financial revenues. The United States and its allies would be required to present reconstruction plans for Iran worth at least $300 billion. A 60-day negotiation period aimed at reaching a final agreement covering nuclear issues and the complete removal of U.S. primary and secondary sanctions, as well as the repeal of relevant resolutions of the UN Security Council and the IAEA Board of Governors. Reaffirmation by Iran of its commitment under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) not to produce nuclear weapons. During the negotiation period, the United States Posted by: runner at June 12, 2026 09:03 AM (GD0B3) 236
would commit not to deploy additional forces to the region and not to impose any new sanctions.
The release of $24 billion in frozen Iranian assets during the 60-day final negotiation period. Half of this amount must be made available to Iran before negotiations begin. Establishment of a monitoring mechanism to oversee implementation of the agreement. The final agreement would be approved through a UN Security Council resolution. Final negotiations would not begin before the release of half of Iran’s frozen assets, the suspension of oil sanctions, and the lifting of the naval blockade. The final agreement would focus exclusively on the future of enriched nuclear material and uranium enrichment, sanctions relief, and a program for rebuilding Iran’s economy. Discussion of Iran’s missile program and its support for resistance groups would be definitively excluded from the agenda. Posted by: runner at June 12, 2026 09:03 AM (GD0B3) 237

Aaaaand thee it is:
@dcopechatter 🚨 BREAKING NEWS: Tens of thousands of Spencer Pratt voters are now receiving rejection letters from the county clerk saying that their ballots were not counted due to signature irregularities. Yet, Governor Gavin Newsom just passed legislation that would make it illegal for anyone conducting oversight, to contest signatures that they deemed fraudulent. Democrats allow ballots to be signed with an X, a -, or a 🙂 to pass and count, but all of a sudden, only Republican signatures are being flagged for irregularities, rejected, and not counted. 🤔 One of these California Republican voters said that his signature has been on file for over 20 years and there has never been an issue until he voted for Spencer Pratt. Nithya Ramen has beaten Spencer Pratt by less than 3000 votes. There are at least 18,000 Pratt voters who received this letter saying their votes were rejected.

I don't think the administration really thinks Iran will adhere to any "MOU" or whatever. There will be fighting in Lebanon by this time next week and multiple drone attacks or missiles launched by rabid IRGC "commanders" in the field as well.
Iran has at most a dysfunctional "government" right now. We're not dealing with one or two or even several Iranian mullahs. We're dealing with a mash-up of Islamic nutjobs, all with their own agendas. If, by chance they all agree to cool their jets for a while I'd be pleasantly surprised.

How Queer Starmer keeps avoiding a vote of no confidence, I just do not understand. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at June 12, 2026 08:05 AM (IG3/x) My tentative inference is that their level of grift in public administration has become so bad, they're just literally incapable of doing things now, and replacing Two-Tier Keir wouldn't fix *that* problem. I look at the California's bespoke, artisanal cougar/butterfly bridge, which crossed $100M without being completed, while other states can accomplish the same function for $15M. So that gives us a floor of at least 85% fraud and waste in Cali, likely higher. And Europe's gov't admin cultures are older, with likely more pervasive and stubbornly endemic grift. Can you imagine if only 5% of public spending made it to the intended function? Why, you would struggle to stop an invasion of lightly-armed barbarians in rubber boats!

ABC News, What to know about the EU's new rules on migration and asylum The European Union is set to implement a new set of rules governing how each of its 27 member states will deal with irregular migration and asylum seekers Reading all recommended. -- anewz.tv The European Commission has proposed banning entry to the EU for anyone who has served in the Russian armed forces since the start of the war in Ukraine, as part of a new sanctions package against Moscow. The measure still requires approval from all 27 EU member states before it can take effect. The proposed 21st sanctions package would also target Russia's energy sector, banks and fisheries, which Brussels says are key sources supporting Moscow's war effort. - I can see that's where the US progressives' promising to ban those who've worked for Trump-era ICE from future non-federal employment got the idea!

The MOU is the first offer the Irainian carpet salesmen offered. End the war, (on all fronts) end the blockade, and we'll talk about the nuclear issue, "later". Later of course means "never". Friends: it was TACO Thursday, we all know it.
Oil Execs came to the Whitehouse this week and told Trump unless supplies are massively increased, get ready for $150 oil. The inflation data says we're back to 4% inflation, double the rate the economic experts would like. Mid-term polling is showing a near wipe out, that means 2027 will be the year of another Presidential Impeachment. Trump is responsible. The two month pause when they were nearly on their knees killed any chance of a Nuclear-Free Iran. Posted by: Jeb! Magruder at June 12, 2026 09:56 AM (AWRwz) 345

The oil is being re-routed such that soon Hormuz will mean only how can Iran survive. Talk of annoynace with Trump's need for a deal misreads the entire plot. The GOP is not losing the Senate and probably will hold the House because of math. Iran is misreading that as well. Posted by: Black JEM at June 12, 2026 09:57 AM (GZYu7) 346

Morning Horde,
The Iran Deal has been announced several times. I remain skeptical that whoever is running Iran will live long enough to make a deal. Only way out it seems is to overthrow the government and kill the oppressors. Posted by: Pete Bog at June 12, 2026 07:00 AM (fJC/c) 71

The King would be proud Elvis Presley’s Graceland Unveils Big Plans For ‘All-American’ 4th of July Event Elvis Presley‘s Graceland is getting ready to have a major celebration this 4th of July. In honor of America’s upcoming 250th anniversary, Graceland is hosting an “All-American Weekend” from July 3 to July 5, where fans will be able to see Elvis’ iconic Memphis estate like never before as it getes lit up in red, white and blue. According to the official Graceland website, this year’s fourth of July celebration will include include two “electrifying” concerts, including a performance from The Dreamboats, who are slated to “bring their electrifying, high-energy celebration of 1950s and ’60s rock ‘n’ roll to the Graceland Soundstage for a night that will have you on your feet from the first note.” There will also be a tribute concert from Jimmy Holmes and Patt Dunn, who are expected to “bring Elvis’ greatest hits to life — from rock ‘n’ roll classics to unforgettable ballads and Vegas-era favorites.”-----
The United States flag appeared to be met with loud boos and jeers before the opening game of the World Cup in Mexico City. Ahead of the big kick-off between Mexico and South Africa, the flags of all 48 teams participating in this summer’s tournament were paraded onto the pitch. The final three flags to take to the pitch were those of the three North American co-hosts, the United States, Canada and Mexico. However, there was a marked change in atmosphere when the United States were introduced and their flag was displayed on the stadium’s big screen. From jubilant roars, the noise of the crowd shifted, with loud boos audible as the flag of the United States was brought forward.First of all, it's a field not a pitch. Secondly, go fuck yourselves.

Mexico and the US are, uh, not friends in soccer. They think it's their sport and are mad that the US took being better at it away from them. US soccer fans think they're awfully entitled for a team that hasn't done better than we have.

Mexico and the US are, uh, not friends in soccer. They think it's their sport and are mad that the US took being better at it away from them. US soccer fans think they're awfully entitled for a team that hasn't done better than we have.
If a Mexican fan boos the flag, shout 'Dos-a-cero' at them. They'll understand. Maybe want to fight too, depending on beer level, but they'll understand.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — A Bloomington man told police he’d been disassembling his handgun while drinking Jim Beam whiskey when the loaded firearm discharged and punched through his dining room wall. Next door, his neighbor was peacefully crocheting in her living room when the bullet struck her in the arm. Fortunately, the projectile had lost most of its velocity and didn’t break skin, though it did cause her pain. The Bloomington Police Department arrested Kaleb Ford, 21, of Bloomington on Tuesday. He was charged in Monroe County court with criminal recklessness, a Level 5 felony. Posted by: Bertram Cabot, Jr. at June 11, 2026 10:40 PM (Cqx++) 187

Im old enough to remember putting a dime in the coke machine and then having to move the bottle along the slot it was hanging from and then pulling it out.
Posted by: Diogenes My folks had one of those, with the guard unlocked. It was in the middle room of the bathhouse by the pool here on the ranch. Kept stocked with all the best; I had a thing for Grape soda. Or Dr Pepper (original formula). From the long-gone local bottling plant. Sometimes had to shuffle bottles around in the slots to get what you want. Since they tore the pool and bathhouse down after Dad died in '68, I think it's been gathering dust out in the metal shed (as opposed to the old cement shed). We'll be hauling it out and dusting it off one of these days, see if it still works. Every summer here in Oklahoma, especially days like today, I miss that great old swimming pool.

Now I have to wonder on that soccer vs football meme. Are the soccer fans the plastic soldiers? English novels I read led me to believe that soccer hooligans are much more violent than american football fans who largely sit politely in their seats. Although I can't picture football fans as chess.

Thanks, Doof!
My rock and roll band is Thunder Sinners. I love the soccer vs football meme! Lol. I once played with those little plastic Army men with my brother. We dug elaborate caves in one part of the yard for them. The soil has a lot of Yazoo clay running through it, so we'd take some time off to make little bowls and be Indians. No wars between us at the time and unsure who we were fighting. However, when I was six years old on a trip to the NC and Virginia mountains and DC on the backseat window ledge (as who needs seatbelts), I learned tragically that the North won the Civil War. My brother had the blue Yanks and I had Confederate grey men.Because as oldest I won at everything. I said, "Start the war" and after skirmishes I said I won. My father crushed me when he told me otherwise. I am sure I said, "You are kidding me" as this is how most of our conversations went. I have never been the same.

Posted by: mnw Wait to see how the launch goes before investing… Posted by: mindful webworker - boom or bust at June 11, 2026 11:25 PM (dn9xm) Yeah, good luck with that. We spent all week trying to get ready to get some. Oh, you don't have $50,000 in an account? Oh so sorry, the ones that do get first dibs, and maybe if any of the "limited" shares are left over it goes into a lottery system for you peons. Posted by: Berserker-Dragonheads Division at June 11, 2026 11:30 PM (snZF9) Pick up some on the inevitable drop. Last major IPO, Cerebras, peaked at $386, then drifted to $196 before heading up again. That's a tidy profit. Posted by: Comrade Flounder, Disinformation Demon at June 11, 2026 11:36 PM (dK+Kv) 365

I was in a parking lot today turning tricks and saw this:
A mother pulled up, sort of trashy looking woman who takes no pride in herself (but, hey, I can't help it if I do and would not be caught dead without trying or mascara) got out of her car in front of me. Then a daughter got out in red/black flannel pj's and a hoodie. It was 80 degrees. A more normal daughter got out in jeans and a tee shirt. What on earth? It was 3pm and flannel girl looked like she just rolled out of bed. I said to my husband I don't get it. Why don't people care what they look like anymore? Is it because I'm Southern? What on earth? He doesn't know, either. In reality I'd taken my husband to the doctor for an appt and was in the car listening to rock with the AC on to irritate anyone who is liberal and might notice. I also saw my very first gigantic yellow swallotail butterfly today (which I write down in my calendar). Because. Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at June 11, 2026 11:42 PM (WONhk) 383

How IPOs work, sometimes:
1) Irresistible story and/or charismatic executive. 2) IPO is set up with several insiders already granted percentage ownership of company shares. 3) IPO opens at retail, immediately chased to the sky by enchantment with the story. 4) At the peak, most or all of the insiders sell. 5) Sad trombone.

I had a vision of the great legs that summer at the beach for me. I had forgotten how to skate. It was rather pitiful Christmas Day in FL with a movie recording us trying on the sidewalk. I fell once only vs sons. Filmed. You can hear my parents and husband laughing when I fell. I caught myself with my hand and managed to fx a bit of my elbow. It is recorded of me flapping my arm around til I felt a pop and said that feels better...til it got like Popeye's arm overnight. A wee fx and I needed a sling and gave the rollerblades to a friend. My father then decided to teach one son with one skate and holding onto him. Which does not make a bit of sense and the entire video is hilarious.

Years ago there was a race that originated from a nowhere parking lot in Watertown, MA and ended in Marblehead, MA at Maddie's. It was really more of an excuse to party.

I just learned about something fascinating I've never heard of: The Gothenburg Flip, otherwise formally called the Gothenburg Magnetic Excursion. This was a geomagnetic anomaly that happened ~14 - 13 kya. The Erf's magnetic field apparently did a very rapid little reversal and then returned to previous direction. A little rapid, but temporary pole flip. Some argue about whether it was global, or just a local event of some strange sort where the samples were found. And that time frame puts it just right at the start of the big glacial collapses and meltwater pulses and sea level rise that kicked off the Younger Dryas period.

Nothing can be left to be. The friction and fracture points must be found, nourished, and exploited. Everything, even a tragedy everyone can agree on the basics of, must cause heartache and tension.

The direction (and to some extent the strength) of the Erf's field gets locked into magnetic materials. When lava cools, it locks in the direction. And when ferromagnetic particles in water settle to the bottom, they lock in the direction when they get frozen in as sediment layers build up.

The argument is that it wasn't the magnetic field that flickered, it was the Earth flipped to a different orientation for a while before flipping back. Personally I think the archeological part is at best overenthusiastic for the interpretation, and outside of that there is not a lot of indication that the world flipped end for end.

The field has flipped about 183 times in the last 83 million years. Subduction eventually pulls it back under, so the record only goes back so far. These reversals are not regularly spaced, but have varying periods, almost random seemingly. The process can take anywhere from a few thousand to tens of thousands of years as well. Now that 183 number are full reversals. The poles flip state and then stay that way for a long time. There are a number of other of those little excursions, where the poles go crazy, maybe flip briefly, then go back to the previous state.

Posted by: A New Yawker 60 years ago. at June 12, 2026 12:20 AM (uyNHw) It is a butane stove which is great if you want to stay at low elevations and higher temperatures. My main stove is propane, but I wanted to look at some alcohol and kerosene stoves too. Those two fuels are good for freezing weather. I like looking at the fancy new stuff, some of it is really tricked out and might even work right. I also like things like the old brass pressure stoves. They still make them in India.

When man fell. But in the US right around the time something called the media became the word. The Church Committee helped uncover Operation Mockingbird that was founded during the Cold War. By our super intel community of course. Also exposed things like MKULTRA. And then everyone forgot about it while the CIA offshored and we ended up with an ex-British spy helping invent a Russia collusion hoax cause it all ended 60 years ago and that's why Obama pushed and then signed the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act. And almost nobody remembers any of it other than crazy conspiracy theorists. Obama just magically appeared and became super popular despite being a zipperhead.

Note the Sun's magnetic field flips every 11 years as part of the solar cycle. You can look up illustrations of how the field dances during that flipping process. It's not a simple flipping of dipole field. If you model the earth with a simple bar magnet dipole, it's not like just flipping that over. The field is more than a simple exact dipole field. See the concept of the "multipole expansion", which is a way, sort of Taylor series like, to represent any field as an infinite sum of moments. When the earth's field flips, the dipole moment term just disappears for a a while. The field doesn't go to zero, but is basically quadrupole (and higher), which dances aound (two north poles and south poles coming out of the earth's surface, and moving around). Then the dipole moment comes back, in the other direction, and the field stabilizes in the other direction. A compass would then point south.

Royalty. That sort of social structure strangles a civilization in the cradle. In America, you could arrive with nothing and build an empire. In Europe or anywhere else, "When you're a Serf you're a Serf all the way, from your first cigarette to your last dying day." It's why the world hates and resents us. Because we don't know our place.

Posted by: Berserker-Dragonheads Division at June 11, 2026 11:27 PM (snZF9) I have a couple or three of them. The Hickock mutual conductance one, I am hanging on to. I think I might have some lesser brand of mutual conductance tester, too. And several el-cheapo emission testers, which are the same as the drugstore testers in a smaller box. You really need a mutual conductance tester to do a rigorous test on a tube; it actually make some measure of a tube's ability to amplify. Emission testers just "ask" Does this tube perform as a diode? Yes. OK, it's good. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at June 12, 2026 01:31 AM (1z8ji) 608

You're better off testing tubes in an amplifier.
Posted by: Bertram Cabot, Jr. at June 12, 2026 12:05 AM (Cqx++) True enough. Actually, if Berserker has a whole mess of basically one tube type, and I am guessing 12AX7, or 12AU7, it would be very easy to set up a simple test circuit to measure a tube's curve of delta Plate current vs delta grid voltage. You could put a 2000 ohm magnetic headphone set in the plate circuit, and listen for microphonics as you tapped on the glass bottle, too.

You went to Yellowstone? That's great. I usually try to walk early in the morning but circumstances prevented that yesterday, and even by 9:30 when FenSpouse came home from the first bus run it was too hot to walk. I do have a renewed appreciation for people outside all day long. Son was outside working till about 2:30 pm. He came home, had some dinner and was conked out for the rest of the night.

Hi Fen.
Loved Yellowstone. First actual real vacation that we have take in about 25 years. And boy did we walk. About 6-8 miles every day to see the hot springs, geysers and such. Just glad to get back to sea level where there is actual oxygen and moisture in the air. But really struggling with the motivation for the daily walk here at home. And if you are not done walking by 7:30, the temperature is just too high to do so. Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice at June 12, 2026 03:42 AM (iMotb) 691

Posted by: LTG at June 11, 2026 07:51 PM (+ZHEV) Thanks! So, I think I'm getting a handle on where the con artists are going. They've settled on Jew Hatred, and using Zionism, AIPAC, and Epstein Class as euphemisms. Every confidence scheme needs a core lie -- if it were all true with no trick, then it would just be business -- and they generally recycle ones with proven track records. Jew hatred is one of those, infamously. And the Jeffrey Epstein situation is tailor-made for their tricks, since he's a dead and much-hyped Jew, who did not do as much as people suspected. Turns out he was a sex-trafficking client, mostly of women of age in New York (17+), not a pimp. He was a deal-maker, and used his girls as eye candy and party favors to grease deals. And since he did not sell their butts, the Epstein Files that were unprecedentedly released are it. This is the full client list: * Jeffrey Epstein That's it. But with rhetoric, if you're explaining then you're losing. So it's a perfect situation for conmen to swoop in and make claims that take explaining to debunk, and also he's too dead to answer questions himself.

Dating liberal women is easy, as long as you can assert yourself. Stick to your guns, and never give an inch of ground.
Women give men shit for thinking with our dicks, but they pretty much think with their vaginas to the exclusion of most everything... as long as you're laying it down right they'll eventually change their minds, because they never put any thought into "their" politics in the first place.

Dating liberal women is easy, as long as you can assert yourself. Stick to your guns, and never give an inch of ground.
Posted by: Yudhishthira's Dice at June 11, 2026 08:09 PM (BI5O2) --- I rate this as true. Liberal chicks are surrounded by loser dudes emoting and trying to show how they are totally NOT toxically masculine and hate guns and stuff. A dude who rolls up and is like "Hell yeah, I got guns, I do guy stuff!" immediately gets their attention. Maybe I'm showing my age here, but back in the day, it was axiomatic that leftist chicks were easy. But that was before they all became angry lesbians. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H.

Posted by: Reforger at June 11, 2026 08:26 PM (bHWR0) --- No. It has been extensively documented that many lesbians choose to be that way due to their politics. Some get over it, grow out their hair, get married and have lots of kids. Female sexuality is much more fluid than male. When lesbianism was fringe and weird, they were straight. Another factor: body positivity. Fat chicks are off the chain these days, have been for a decade or more. Watching older movies has me reflecting on how grotesque people look today.

On Wednesday's MS NOW’s “The Briefing”:
Host Jen Psaki: “You have gotten under Donald Trump’s skin; you could see that we played a sample of that. I think he called you a thug. I don’t even know, repeatedly today we played some of it and he said, you are ‘Worse than any human being that’s ever run for office probably.’ What did you think when you heard that?” Platner: “Well, coming from certainly the worst person to have ever run for office, I take it as an immense compliment.” Psaki: “It must feel pretty ludicrous to be lectured to your point by this president over morality.” Platner: “Yeah, it’s, it’s at the end of the day, it just comes down to the fact that Donald Trump knows that I’m going to go to the United States Senate to try to hold him and all of his corrupt cronies accountable. That’s the entire point of this. I mean, we are building something up here in Maine that’s going to allow us to retake the Senate for Democrats, but also retake the Senate with Democrats who really want to get in a fight.” Posted by: Duncanthrax at June 11, 2026 08:45 PM (0sNs1) 135

Leftism is a religion unto itself, while its devotees profess an absolute disdain for"organized religion." Posted by: LTG at June 11, 2026 08:44 PM (+ZHEV) I come from an atheist family. I am NOT an atheist. I can attest that atheists do not believe in forgiveness. I have watched my sister torture her memories to blot out anything that might be embarrassing, including an entire marriage. I have had my sisters spout out bilge to one another over things we did as children, as evidence of... IDK... character? Leftists are by definition not religious. They can never be wrong, even when they are awfully wrong. Their self-loathing comes out in waves as projection on anyone or anything they can spew it at. They must be perfect, at all times, and obviously superior to anyone around themselves. It is diabolical and soul-slavery. It leads to misery. I'm Catholic. I screw up all the time.

There are also the Pelosi/Biden Catholics, who flout their religion and dare anyone to say anything. When Francis was pope, they got away with it.

Remember interstellar interloper 3I/ATLAS. It's hauling ass on its way out, now at about 5.5 AU from the sun. I was just reading some of the latest stuff from the analysis of all the spectral observations they took. And, as expected, it's nothing like anything from this solar system. They discovered it's high in methane and methanol. The methane didn't show up until well after it heated up from the sun. And the deuterium ratios in the water and methane is very high. It's very alien indeed. All of that has bumped up the age range estimate to 10 - 12 billion years old, well over twice the age of our own solar system.

Any child born in the US should have the same status as the parents. Unless the parents can prove they were brought here against their will and held as slaves. Then the child would be a US citizen per the 14th Amendment.
Posted by: Going deep. Out. They were until the full effects of the 19th Amendment shook out. Basically in the Patriarchy citizenship was derived from the husband and father. Immigrant marries an American man - instant citizenship for her and her kids. Conversely an American woman marries an immigrant - she instantly gets his citizenship... As late as 2000 the Standard Form was available on line for women to reclaim their US citizenship that they lost decades before when they married a foreigner. I don't know when that effect of the 19th shook out. Probably before living memory. ...and in slips duel citizenship for the kids... next step anchor babies.

In the 1990s, race relations were at their zenith. People joked about the best golfer being black and the best rapper being white.
And then Obama came along, and all that was systematically dismantled because Democrats were losing the working class and needed monolithic black support to shore them up. They hate Trump because he has bypassed their gatekeepers, which is why you had Obama begging black men to vote for Kamala. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H.

Posted by: JackStraw at June 11, 2026 10:05 PM (viF8m) Former Left-Wing Girlfriend: Gerald Platner Cheated With Me on His Fiance (Whom He Hid From Me), Said He Got a Nazi Tattoo to Remind Him That the US Was "the Bad Guy" In Foreign Policy, and Also, Has "Small Dick"Oh man, they always throw in that last one. Or so I've heard. From others. I heard Larry O'Connor promise yesterday that more is coming. Here's a little more.Major Smallcock continues insisting that while his girlfriends and adultery-partners knew his tattoo was a Totenkopf, he did not. Because these girls didn't tell him, a "military buff" who actually chose the tattoo, what it was. I may have added some vibes to that quote. Princess Tinymeat is also lying about working. He does not work. He just sits in bed all day and wishes his dainty micropenis could satisfy an ant. I may have added a little to Captain Bugfucker's quote. Despite his reliance on disability, Platner has consistently referred to himself as an "oyster farmer" while campaigning for Senate."Oyster" = his tiny subwiener, "farmer" = masturbator Update: Although that whistleblower says she deleted her texts, someone on twitter published this alleged text chain about Private Shamenoodle. He didn't tell me who supposedly wrote these. ![]() Jennifer Sey Women always be lyin' about men that dumped them, you know? jimtreacher.substack.com
Some people just like classic Coke. Others insisted on the original Reese's recipe. New York Times writer Jodi Kantor went on CNN to explain why Democrats can vote for Maine senatorial candidate Graham Platner despite multiple women coming forward to denounce him: this is really not the classic Me Too allegations that Kantor and others seem to prefer for outrage. Kantor won a Pulitzer Prize for her reporting on Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein's sexual abuse and was called forth by CNN to explain why it is ok for liberals to support an alleged abuser of women. A prior girlfriend has accused Platner of physically abusing her and even locking her into a room overnight. He is also accused of sexting women and dismissing rape victims. None of that, however, necessarily presents a barrier for those who want to retake power by any means necessary. Kantor clinically explained that these "are not classic MeToo accusations." Specifically, "they're not about a boss and a young female employee being subjected to sexual advances. They were mostly made in the context of consensual relationships. There are these, like, very sensational texts about sex. There are allegations from former girlfriends that are not -- the way my colleagues reported them were not like classic abuse allegations," she stressed. In a statement that would have produced a torrent of condemnations if used during the Kavanaugh controversy, Kantor insisted that "they were mostly like being his boyfriend gave me a view into him and I did not like what I saw. His character was scary. He had this Nazi tattoo. Et cetera." In fairness to Kantor, she was attempting no small feat: to allow liberals to continue to claim Me Too outrage while grabbing Maine. Of course, Kantor quickly brushes over the other controversies beyond the abuse allegations as simply a Nazi tattoo. She omits his mocking of a wounded veteran, rural people, and rape victims while praising Hamas and embracing communism. However, her diminishing of the account of women like Lyndsay Fifield as "they were mostly like being his boyfriend gave me a view into him and I did not like what I saw." What Fifield alleges that she "saw" were marks left on their body after being yanked and grabbed by Platner. In one case, she claimed "he twisted her arm behind her back, shoved her into a bedroom and held the door closed from the other side so she couldn't get out, telling her to remain there until she was 'calm.'" Kantor seems to begrudgingly acknowledge that "there was one allegation of crossing a line physically, but I think that means that these are pretty different accusations than, say, the one that -- the ones that President Trump faced." Previously, Kantor did not draw this distinction between classic Me Too and new knockoffs involving non-employment situations. She once grouped a wide variety of controversies from Al Franken to Brett Kavanaugh to Jeffrey Epstein under the banner... Ironically, Kantor's rationalization returns to the very partisan "older pattern" that she once denounced in how allegations from women are treated in the media. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

This feels like so many other stories.
Like the Trump assault charge -- anyone familiar with Bergdorf in the 90s would know that it was impossible. The sales people work on commission and the high end mens dept is like a lounge where you sit and are surrounded by staff. Likewise, it is impossible to get a nazi tattoo without knowing. This flash is hidden out of sight and has to be requested (except for biker shops, where everything is nazi.) The artist will tell you and make it very clear. No one "accidentally" gets a totenkopf. But the media will never report reality, and instead allows people to wallow in their ignorance.

Also: I learned a year or two ago (to my immense shock, actually) that the German military actually arrested and executed some SS people for being too mean to prisoners. I was like, wait, what? 1) they had an actual functioning judicial branch for their military and 2) just what did you have to do to get sideways in the SS and be too bad for them to not save you from this version of the JAG?

32 You know who is smart enough to be a senator? An expert in military - a soldier and self-proclaimed history buff - who, after almost two decades of looking in the mirror every day at a tattoo, doesn't realize the one he has next to his heart is the worst of NAZI symbols.
How on Earth can a nation survive without such brilliance? This requires no other disqualifier and he has oodles of them. It's unforgivable. Everyone keeps saying, "But wait, there's more!" This exercise kinda keeps resetting the bar for him. He's either a NAZI, an idiot, or both. That should, in America, make him untouchable. Just that.

CBC News: His controversies include a Nazi tattoo. Why Democrats are still standing by Senate candidate Graham Platner
Democratic strategist Christy Selzer said "Platner's challenges, no matter how deep, are small compared to those created each day by the Trump administration, which has Senator Collins' steadfast support." "Flawed candidate (Platner) versus supporter of the end of democracy (Collins) seems like an easy call." His story that he and a bunch of young Marines walked into a tattoo shop and pointed at the meanest skull on the wall makes total sense to me. The right likes it cos it allows them to call him a Nazi instead of addressing his policies. It's also hilarious since Musk did a Nazi salute during a speech and Hegseth's entire time in command and tattoo are about a million times more blatant. Nothing wrong with that tattoo. It’s just a skull and cross bones which any young military person could think is cool Posted by: Intercepted Reddit Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at June 11, 2026 07:14 PM (ycI94) 151

Obviously.So, once again, we have a "cleanskin" NGO taking government money and then immediately sub-granting it to a highly controversial organization that no government agency, even one controlled by Democrats, would ever fund directly, because they know the public outcry would be enormous.

Really defeats the purpose of the N in NGO if the G is bankrolling them.
Posted by: ballistic at June 11, 2026 06:09 PM (oqH4h) --- But on the downside it becomes more honest and transparent without the N. But the thing was Fannie and Freddie Mac were both "NGO"s, because they were not officially government organizations. And even back then you would put something into an NGO that you didn't want steered by partisan shifts. So having the burden fall to the government after going into receivership also really stretched the N. Posted by: Axeman at June 11, 2026 06:13 PM (Fi81e) 98

Another legacy of W. Bush.
It was him, as I remember, who pushed so hard for government money going to religious organizations for humanitarian work. It sounded like a fine idea at first, but so much of that money has gone to bringing in and establishing hostile immigrants that the entire program needs to be canned. Lutheran and Catholic Refugee Services (and every other denomination I'm missing) have screwed the country with the amounts of Somalis and other problem cultures they have brought in on the taxpayers' dime. Now it seems that CAIR was in on the same act for Afghans. Posted by: SepakingOf at June 11, 2026 06:16 PM (6ydKt) 104

As far as Bush goes, I think it's mainly not anticipating that anything that can be used for good and efficiency, can be misused by the left for funneling money to their causes.
They just decided that their ideological causes were just as good as feeding and clothing the poor. Because after the Marxist takeover the poor would get feed and clothed. Posted by: Axeman at June 11, 2026 06:23 PM (Fi81e) Posted by: Axeman at June 11, 2026 06:24 PM (Fi81e) 112

Apparently this has to do with using federal dollars -- why are we giving CAIR any money? -- to pay for some kind of sketchy, unaccredited "Afghan Legal Services" fund.
---- *raises hand* I have been saying that CAIR is a Muslim Brotherhood front organization that should be listed as a terror group, proscribed, have its assets seized, and its employees arrested... since I was a fucking teenager. Forget the obscenity of federal funding. The fact that a dumb hillbilly teen could see through this obvious foreign terror group, and it's been allowed to operate on our soil *at all* for all these years tells you all you need to know about our ruling class and their loyalties.
