4) Have a great weekend!
AoSHQ Weekly Prayer List Please submit any prayer requests to me, “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo at-sign hotmail dot com. Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks unless we receive an update. Prayer Requests: 5/23 – I used to have a Different Nic could use some prayers as he waits for the results of a biopsy of a mass on his prostate.
6/23 Update – The latest update is that he has stage 2, “unfavorable intermediate”, which he notes is an awful name, but what it means is, it is in the middle, but bad enough that they want to treat it. It’s more aggressive than previously thought. He is at the point where he has to decide on treatment options, which means choosing which set of pretty unfortunate side effects he prefers.
7/31 Update – He has reached the halfway point in treatment. He’s had some side effects, that are “just annoying”. 6/20 – bluebell gave an update on grammie Winger. Grammie had some major surgery related to her cancer in March and is pretty much housebound. She said she isn’t keeping up on news since her diagnosis; she doesn’t have the energy. She said she thinks of her grey-box friends often with fondness. Please keep praying for her. Your prayers are a source of great comfort to her.
6/27 Update – grammie winger requested bluebell to let the Horde know that she is hospitalized again, with sepsis, and cannot eat or walk. She is very tired and cannot speak for long. She is being fed by tube. They don’t know how long she will be hospitalized or where she will go after (rehab, hospice, etc.). Bluebell has a mailing address for grammie, so please contact bluebell to send a card or note to grammie winger. Please pray for her, that her suffering will be eased, and pray for her family, who are suffering along with her.
7/25 – grammie winger popped in to say thank you for all the cards, letters, and encouraging words. You are a treasure. 6/27 – “A” sent thanks for the prayers for a family friend, who is at home recovering with the family and doing much better. “A” has an additional request for long-time friends (J and S) who are in the midst of intense family problems and requesting healing, peace, repentance, and restoration in the family.
7/18 Update – “A” sends his thanks to all the prayer warriors for all the personal concerns listed here. The requests above are all doing better. Prayer really works. Sometimes the results are not what we expected but end up being what we really needed for other reasons. Thank you all! 7/15 – Captain JS’ daughter needs prayers for his/her daughter. Early on 7/15, she experienced complete heart failure. She is in the ICU on a heart/lung machine. They will operate to see what is happening. Captain JS sends thanks in advance for the prayers and has faith in their power.
7/15 Update – Thanks to all who responded to Captain JS’ request for prayers. The daughter is still unconscious but is still alive. The doctors suspect a blockage to the left side of her heart. They are planning to take pictures and then insert a stent.
7/18 Update – Captain JS’ daughter passed away. Her heart, brain, and other organs were too damaged to regain function. Captain JS sends his thanks to the Horde for all the prayers. 7/25 – Matthew Kant Cipher humbly asks for prayers for Marshall, a long-time friend and HS classmate of Mrs. MKC, who is currently hospitalized with heart failure.
8/7 Update – Marshall passed away after multiple organs failed. Matthew Kant Cipher humbly asks the Horde to pray for the repose of his soul and that God’s perpetual light would shine upon him. 7/25 – Teresa in Fort Worth posted an update. She is still doing fine. Her chemo pump seems to be working and everything appears stable for now. She says she is incredibly blessed! She is working on a stocking for an as-yet-not-born grandchild. She would appreciate prayers for a successful IVF procedure and pregnancy for her daughter and hubby. Next week, Teresa and her husband will be going to California to visit their daughter who lives there and her family.
8/4 Update – Teresa was admitted to the hospital while on vacation in California. She has a bad infection – cellulitis - not due to the cancer. She is being treated with antibiotics and hopefully it will be cleared up in a couple of days. 7/29 – Notsothoreau asked for prayers for Billy Ray’s mother, who was just admitted to the hospital with pneumonia. She is a cancer survivor and chemo destroyed her immune system, so this is a big worry.
8/2 Update – Billy Ray’s mother is feeling better, on oxygen and medication. She is not out of the woods, but has stabilized. She appreciates the prayers from around the globe and says thank you very much. 7/29 – TecumsehTea wrote that MrTea’s diagnosis is colon cancer stage 4. They are praying for guidance for how to proceed.
8/12 Update – MrTea will start radiation treatments for the tumor in the sigmoid colon on Monday – 10 treatments. They are not sure what will follow; they are still looking at options. Surgery is not an option. The cancer has metastasized to the lymph node nearest the tumor and there are 3-5 small spots in the liver. There are also spots in his lung which are indeterminate. He continues on fenben and ivermectin. Prayers are appreciated. 7/30 – David sent an update on his wife, Susan, who we have been praying for as she is treated for cancer. Susan is still doing well and her numbers are headed in the right direction, but they are still having issues with the side effects of the chemotherapy. It is manageable, but they have to increase the number of office visits for additional treatments. Some days are really good right now, but others are only bearable with the Lord’s grace. They are so grateful for the prayers on their behalf. 8/1 – Isophorone Blog requested prayers for his mother. His father passed this past Sunday. His mother had been in the hospital for an entire month previous to that, so they never got to see each other at the end. His mother is out of the hospital, but in declining health. 8/1 – Tonypete asked for prayers for his BIL, who is a developmentally disabled adult and has been living independently (sort of) for decades but the time has come for them to make some changes in his living arrangements and personal finances. This will not go well as he has VERY poor impulse control and anger issues. His dear wife has POA but that is limited in its reach and it is probably time for her to be granted guardianship. 8/7 – neverenoughcaffiene asks for prayers for Lynell, who was recently diagnosed with a rapidly growing brain tumor. Surgery was performed and they were not able to remove all of the cancer. Her prognosis for survival is one year. She is being treated with chemo and radiation. On top of her diagnosis and treatment, she recently broke her ankle. Please pray for Lynell and her husband as they navigate this new reality. 8/8 – Ace-Endorsed Author A. H. Lloyd posted that Mrs. Lloyd will undergo a double mastectomy to remove the breast cancer. She has advanced to Stage 1. Much hinges on the biopsy to determine the specific sub-category of cancer and whether chemo is necessary. Please pray for her in this time of need. 8/8 – Retired Buckeye Cop requested prayers for his nephew, Josh, who is losing his business due to overwhelming debt. Old addictions have returned; he is drinking heavily. He is currently estranged from his family. His mother is Mrs. Cop’s kid sister. 8/12 – Joe Kidd asked for prayers for a friend’s cousin, who is beginning chemo treatments for stage 3 cancer. 8/11: Donna V with &&&&&& contacted Mis. Hum. to let the Horde know the following: "Please let the horde know I am doing fine in hospice". She would appreciate your prayers.

He says we have enough saved and he is just done with the stress.
I am very anxious about all this.

we are all red light deprived because of LEDs and efficient windows blocking most of the sunlight's spectrum
It says we need whole light at a cellular level and there are studies that show red light can improve of lots of stuff - blood sugar, diabetes etc
They speculate that much of the explosion of illnesses including cancer may be due to whole light deprivation, or what they call "red-light scurvy"

Interesting. I've been trying to decide whether the red light devices are quackery, or if they really do something. They are approved for purchase with an HSA, so apparently, the medical establishment*** thinks they have some value.

Yes. Yes they do, although sometimes they are hard to find. Online ordering seems to think Keurig is the only option. I keep a box in reserve. Strategic reserve Coffee.
I used to buy Madaglia D’oro freeze-dried for long hikes, said to be a good brand. The grocer was out of stock for their store brand cheap stuff. I subbed this as an alternative. It is now supplied in an Aspirin bottle sized container. I must be growing in size, everything I buy is shrinking dramatically.

Sure, COJ, if you can code-post your email.
The seller is also going to re-stain the deck before closing, so it should be ready to use. There's a small stretch of yard between it and the garage, which to me is good; I don't want to mow a big yard. Plus, when it's raining or snowing, I won't have to lug a bunch of grocery bags a great distance from the garage to my back door.
No front porch, but there is a little foyer right inside the front door; I could sit there in colder weather if I want to.

I've started reading the Dune series by Frank Herbert. So far I'm on Dune: Messiah. Very short book. Only 155 pages in the omnibus edition I'm reading.
To get into the spirit, I had a couple of cinnamon rolls for breakfast and now I'm drinking cocoa with a dash of cinnamon in it.
I'm tempted to season ALL my food with cinnamon if only to simulate what it would be like to have food that tastes of "spice."

The DoJ is moving quietly but deliberately,, and I would not be surprised to see California turn red once the scam is exposed, and Newsome will probably attempt secession.

Mrs. Lloyd was very insistent that I go to Mass today and bring her a Host. I was skeptical on the time frame, and have (sadly) been vindicated.
Her morning routine takes an hour, so even setting an alarm at 6:30 left me unable to make the 9 a.m. Mass (the only one scheduled today). At least I'm here.

Perhaps. Anything in possible, but between the Dems nominating crackpots for otherwise competitive seats and the Trump DoJ breathing down the necks of election officials, I think we're going to see the GOP exceed expectations.
The entire premise of elections is fake. The modeling, demographic assumptions, all of it. Mail-in voting was created to cheat, and the USPS forcing tracking will stomp on that, as will audits after the fact. The Overton Window has shifted and the fact that the Dems rigged their own primaries is making even them skeptical of the system.

A district judge ruled it unconstitutional on tax grounds (not 2A) but stayed the opinion for seven days for the DoJ to make an appeal. DoJ declined. The ruling only applies to the plaintiffs, but Brandon Herrera and a bunch of dudes filmed themselves violating it, and the DoJ will probably voluntarily drop enforcement and rewrite regs to comply with the ruling.
Trump gets beaten up a lot for not being God and fixing every American problem, but that's a huge win, an epic win, and I suspect that will boost GOP turnout because the Dems will immediately threaten to reimpose it.

Something I've noticed about many of the "All is lost!!!" commentors is that most of them never appear during the Prayer Thread (or very late, after it's lost focus). They seem to have a blind-spot when it comes to accepting that "man proposes, but God disposes" ... so they don't have the peace-of-mind of taking events as part of God's ultimate plan.

Herbert's books are something of a paradox. The first book is by far the best because it is very dense - lots of things happening, lots of action, incredible background (especially for the time).
But his actual writing style is terrible. National Lampoon did a parody of it ("Doon") and he gave them a lot of material to work with, especially his oddball repetitiveness and pointless internal monologues.
The successive books were better in terms of writing, and maybe his got better, or maybe he got a better editor. But the plots got thinner and thinner, building up to something profound that turned out to be lame.
Fun fact: the first three books were (at the time) billed as a trilogy, and then he decided to write more books, which is how you got Children of a Lesser Dune, Oh God More Dune and Enough With The Dune Thing.
And then his son strip-mined the setting.

They have to do this to adjust, noise handling, signal conditioning, it even ties into how they direct packets around. And all that information is location and time based and is sent for active processing. Now they could at that point throw all that away. Does that sound like something any tech company of this millennia would do?
Now I'm certainly not saying that I'm aware of specific companies that have marketed surveillance tools using that network data to track things, things that aren't even cell phones. For a long long time. No, not all.

A lot of people thing breaking news is actually breaking, like it was just discovered. It is not. Stories are "broken" when it is convenient to the people breaking them, and this is doubly true when it is older stuff just coming to light.
Abdul El-Sayed DeathtoAmerica Jihadi's behavior was known, but the GOP held it close until after the nomination was secure. None of the Dems had the stomach to use it, likely because they thought they could just fudge the ballots but the DoJ's monitors checkmated that maneuver.
There is much, much more coming. You can't waste an October Surprise in August. Those will hit in about three weeks and it's going to be a dense pack strategy, where every news cycle there will be new revelations about different stuff.

We took a boat ride of SF harbor at the grandsons' request - the boat hit a swell as I was walking around, and there wasn't anything to grab onto, so I took a nasty tumble and hit my head. Got a nice-sized goose egg for my troubles (hence the ER visit), but CT scan showed no damage, so I didn't have to stay.
I think that San Francisco just doesn't like me!

Vmom - for your peace of mind, consult a reputable financial advisor. It has made all of the difference in our retirement picture, and is what has allowed me to do my bucket list with not a lot of worry! A good one will have access to computer models which will run simulations to show you what you can reasonably spend without worrying about running out of money.
I highly recommend finding a financial advisor for EVERYONE, no matter where you may be in your work journey.

There is a Lafitte Street in Mid-City that runs parallel to Canal. Now it's a long greenway that runs down to the back of the old Auditorium and Armstrong Park. I call it the Muggers' Shopping Lane; walkers and joggers in the upper part of that would make good victims.

Iran practices Islamic prostitution: temporary marriages. You marry the whore, bang her, and then divorce, so it's possible to rack up a pretty high amount of "exes".
So what the story means is a hooker killed at least 10 of her "Johns."

I have a theory. I think US surplus is going to crater in the coming years. In collecting, demand is everything. US surplus gets premium prices despite being the most common and available stuff out there because of the high demand. Supply is irrelevant. One of a million good condition 1911A1s will get a better price than a Japanese matchlock that's 300 years old.
But a sea change is coming: the Boomers are dying off, and their collections are going to hit the market and overwhelm it. It's pure demographics - not enough Gen Xers to buy it all, and the younger folks can't afford $3,000 handguns that only hold 7 rounds. This has already happened with more dated stuff like model RR and slot cars, but it's coming.

The Koran is a pastiche that even its followers don't fully understand. There are "problem" words which should be impossible if it was dictated in Arabic.
Unlike Jesus, there is zero contemporaneous evidence that Mohammed actually existed, which is remarkable if you think about it. The Greeks were insatiably curious, and eagerly sent people to the courts of foreign kings to write about what they saw. The Huns are shrouded in mystery, but we know what Attila was like because someone had dinner with him and wrote about it.
Mohammed? Nothing. All of the "hadiths" are 200 years after his life.
Just as tellingly, when "Muslims" overran Syria and Persia, they did not update the coinage, which is normally the first thing one does. So these fierce iconoclasts were still minting Christian coins within a generation of their great Prophet's death?!
They were minting them because they were also Christians. Islam came later to legitimize and cement the dynasty, complete with invented succession.

That's very similar to what I read in a book for Father Robert Spitzer (unfortunately, I don't remember the title). Fr. Spitzer says that suffering offers us the opportunity to give and receive unconditional love.

The collapse of societal norms and public religion is causing women to be more violent. If you talk to old pro-choice women, they are horrified by killing a baby just about to be born. What they wanted was a discrete way to dispose of an "accident" so that they could still find a decent husband.
Modern women are becoming overtly pagan, even if they identify as progressive Christians. This is one reason why I think it appropriate for us to reintroduce gendered nouns, because when you call a woman a priestess, you're not only being grammatically correct, you're also highlighting a fact that should not be ignored.

Back from Mass, as August 15th is the Feast of the Assumption of Mary. Because it falls this year on a Saturday, the Obligation is transferred to Sunday, but I didn't think it would hurt to go.
As it turns out, I wasn't the only one. I expected under the circumstances for a 6:30 AM Mass to be attended only by us old crocks with nothing better to do. But it was as full as the first Mass on any other Sunday. Nice to see.

This is true.
However, a surveillance camera pointed at a particular place, like, say a firearms dealer, will provide a clearer picture of what any individual was doing at said place.
Sure, grab the store's data and see what Joe Public bought, or just hit up ATF's database.
But the 4th amendment gets in the way for some of that. Because they're not always in the public domain, but doesn't necessarily include surveillance devices in the public domain that are recording "everything."
Flock and their competitors are filling a gap. Perhaps illegally. Perhaps not.
I'd rather the data they collect be protected from unauthorized examination for no apparent reasons other than "I want to know what this guy's doing."

The Chaldean Catholics hid behind the term "Nestorian" to get the Muslims to leave them alone. "Oh, no, don't worry about us, we're safe. The Romans want us all dead."
I hate it when the media uses the term "Arab Christian," which is supposed to make people think that Arabs would even be allowed to be Christian. They are actually the descendants of the first Christians, and the Arabs are the invaders. Same with the term "Palestinian Christians," which is supposed to make you think they are Arabs, and therefore have no historic claim to Holy Land.

When my mother got her pacemaker installed (which required open heart surgery) she asked for wine with dinner, which was of course refused. So she refused to eat at all. The doctor came in, and she said she always had wine with dinner and she wanted some. It comforted her.
The doc eventually relented, and wrote a prescription for a decent white wine to go with her dinner, and it arrived in a medicine cup. She was very proud of the fact that he specified a good white wine.

Whenever someone says to me that the Catholic Church should ordain women to be priests or deacons. I now ask, "Why?" After they stammer out some "equality bull$h!t", I respond:
1) Look at the Anglican and Lutheran churches: those churches have ordained women and it's brought nothing but strife and schism. I ask, "Is it a good idea to allow a church to be defaced with graffiti (like what happened in the Anglican church), or discard the Nicene Creed for the Sparkle Creed (like what happened in the Lutheran church?" Women "priests" did those things.
2) Women have a different charism than men. Women are to provide spiritual teaching to children. The orders of the Dominican sisters doing that are growing.
3) St. Catherine of Sienna acted as an ambassador.

There's a couple thousand acres of deep woods near Karnak, Texas (near Marshall) which is still surrounded by heavy barbed wire and rusting "DANGER - KEEP AWAY!" signs. The Longhorn Army Ammunition Plant was a major supplier of ordnance for the US Army from 1942 - 1997. Early on, large minefields were planted in the woods around the base to protect it from Nazi Saboteurs. At some point over the years, someone realized that all the maps to the original minefields had been lost, except for knowing the borders. It's been no-go territory ever since.

Women sometimes act incredibly violent in a way that men would not. Because men are more used to violence and immediate consequences. So a women, who has not ever experienced consequences will go absolutely crazy violent. I saw this mostly in college with some younger women and what they would do to their boyfriends, or even strangers. Probably not a long enduring behavioral trait.

Top Story
- Who are you and what have you done with France? France's Constitutional Council has found the French government's plan to block social media access to children under 15 unconstitutional for the burden it would place on everyone over the age of 15. (Reuters)
Kind of obvious but something that entirely escaped both major political parties here in Australia.
Tech News
- Intel says that its Raptor Lake CPUs - 13th and 14th generation - aren't going anywhere. (Tom's Hardware)
Because they still support cheaper DDR4 memory. The company hasn't hinted at any new architectures featuring DDR4 support, but it has introduced new configurations in Bartlett Lake chips, which use the same core design but offer up to 12 performance cores on a chip instead of 8.
You can't officially buy them at retail and they require different BIOS code, but they are floating around and so are alternate BIOS files.
- If you have kernel level-access to your PlayStation 4, you can now have... Kernel Level Access Plus. (Tom's Hardware)
This also applies to the Xbox One and perhaps more importantly to server ships like the Opteron 6300, which I hope nobody is still running for anything critical.
- Why does Claude Fable feel worse than older Claude Opus models? (GitHub)
Selecting for models that do well on benchmarks (and indeed training for them or on RLVR tasks in general) inherently selects for models that make bold, usually-correct assumptions in the face of ambiguity. It penalizes models with a tendency to stop and ask for clarification or direction.
In short, because the incentive was to forge ahead and get things wrong rather than to stop and ask questions.
- The weather was cold and cold. (The Register)
Did Claude Fable write that article?
- The Ploopy A Plus is here. (Ploopy)
Plooping up your database connection, it would seem.
- The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 cores 20% higher on AnTuTu than Gen 5. (WCCFTech)
That makes it twice as fast on that benchmark as the Gen 3 I have in the tablet I just bought, although given price increases it will likely cost four times as much. The Gen 5 model of that tablet already costs three times what I paid.
- Judge James Lemongrab has ordered Google to stop fucking around and make it easier to install alternate app stores on Android. (The Verge) (archive site)
Unacceptable!
- Apple also seems fully committed to fucking around. (MacRumors)
The company wants a 15% cut of purchases not made through Apple's servers.
- He who represents himself has a fraud as a client. (404 Media)
Ah, the old hide your fraud attempts in white text on a white background trick. And I would have got away with it too, if it weren't for that meddling Select All.

Meanwhile read a policy paper by Every political party, and the only one that actually talks about real policies is ONP.

Had that happen in a lawsuit. The other side sent a PDF with a list of expenses, but "blacked out" what each expense was specifically for. I was trying to copy it into another document and noticed the "blacked out" text wasn't actually blacked out...he had, for the third time, using yet another lawyer, to have the lawyer investigate his claims, something that had already been proven exactly wrong in court multiple times...

I was in The Marine Corps at one time, I don't know if I ever mentioned that.
I got a bad reputation early on, unearned, and a cuck bitch of a staff NCO, held a grudge against me and was head hunting me from the time I was a PFC, and he caught me by chance of my duty station that made him my SNCOIC, and he poisoned the fuck out of that well. I had eyes on me constantly. I was good, but I always had eyes and I was defiant, "FUCK YOU!" in their face, no subtlety, it eventually lead to the opportunity that he wanted. I got a summary Court-martial, basically lost a year of service in terms of advancement and pay, about 6 months of freedom through brigg, restriction and supervised billets.
BUT! I learned how to say fuck you more articulately and since I'm a true believer. . . .

This reminds me of the Mark Twain short story about the Siamese Twins, Chang and Eng. One twin was a heavy drinker, to the great shame and chagrin of the other, who was a temperance advocate, so he was continually falling short of that group's goals.

WNBA now has a system to determine who is really trans and who is a bad faith trans.
Is there a list I can subscribe to?

Not sure which of the two the Roman town was named for. But Marcus had barbarians to repel from the frontiers, so he was busy with that too.

I've got a box of books that needs to go to the thrift store, and I'm going to start throwing out a lot of junk. Maybe I'll leave or donate my love seat and end tables, though those are not cheap new. Certainly my aged box spring will stay behind. I might donate my set of the Britannica from '84, but keep the bookcase; those are hard to find now.

For those who missed it.... sadly, I was not selected for the job. The recruiter is supposed to ask 'why not' and get back to me. I am so frustrated today I just can't even. The only other 'lead' I had that was recent, had gone silent - I had assumed it was 'nevermind'-ed. I reached out to that recruiter anyway, and he said the client has gone silent on them. Who the heck knows anymore anything.
Continued prayers, please.
I have faith that God has a plan for me but dangit I'm getting real tired of this. I'd like to see some signs on which path I'm supposed to take, please.

I don't know if you looked into it, but after Mom passed I did look into online AI jobs. Apparently, there are things that you can do such as data labelling and stuff and actually get paid.
You'd have to check everything out in terms of legitimacy but that was something I was considering.
I'm still working on my own projects. And hoping to get stuff out the door soon. I'm excited about that.
All the best.

Sort of like four days this week alternating the baby grandgirl with her older siblings. The 8yr old grandson & 5yr old girlie spent the night.
Reading one of her favorite books that I bought 7yrs ago called Going to School by Suzanne Green. Kitties that are dressed & photos taken. Even with the first page saying to PETA that the photos are taken with high shutter speeds & no drugs or cruelty the book was discontinued. Amazon: $30. On ebay it is worth over $100. I'd promised I'd buy one for her best friend but I don't like her this much. I paid $7 for it. She fell out laughing at one kitty's face and I joined her. When we get like this we can't stop for awhile. My dude and her bro heard us from downstairs. We have the same laugh and look alike and I never dreamed I'd have her one day. I guess I will send the kitty photo via text to her Mom.
I think Charles Wideneck McDowell has a goiter.
The laundry dial looks like how our sons did laundry in college. Eldest son, his freshman year in an apt with washer/dryer, solved the underwear problem by buying new ones and throwing used ones away every month. We raised morons.

My part of Canada - September - after Labor Day.
Since Ralphy turned 15, 105 in dog years I guess, I've been congratulating him on making it through each day and making it through the night. It started as a joke but has increased my gratitude levels.
Last night at 2am, I got up, Snowflake got up, Ralphy got up. Ralphy got a burst of energy, chased Snowflake and actually trapped her between the door and wall.
Quick tag with the nose. She was it. Game over.
Snowflake looked stunned the old guy was that quick so early in the morning.

I was very opposed to their private school daycare but it's worked out well to meet at 2yrs and some go through 12th grade together. Three classes per grade and very good academics.
Last year the PreK 4yr old girl introduced me to Libby at their Christmas play. Informed me in front of her mother that she bites. I quietly told her not to say this in the future.
When she was 2yrs old I figured she'd survive daycare when she started stealing snacks from slow or picky eaters. Then demanding "pouches" from the teacher. I had pride she was a survivor then and no more worries. Her parents were the only ones who were requested to buy more food for our little piggie thief.

For those who missed it.... sadly, I was not selected for the job. The recruiter is supposed to ask 'why not' and get back to me. I am so frustrated today I just can't even. The only other 'lead' I had that was recent, had gone silent - I had assumed it was 'nevermind'-ed. I reached out to that recruiter anyway, and he said the client has gone silent on them. Who the heck knows anymore anything.

Don't even get me started. Mrs B is a power user. The washer and dryer seems to run almost every day. As we speak the dryer is running, I hear it. I have to make an appointment with the laundry room to get any of my wash done. I have to catch her in the act and say put the clothes down and step away from the washer. I do my own laundry. No way I'm doing hers because her procedures for her clothes rivals docking at the space station.

My rule was to punish the one boy not crying. I only popped the youngest on his diapered behind once. He'd left a full teeth imprint in his older brother's bare shoulder. The screams alerted me to the playroom. He was 2yrs and bro 4yrs aka the Chimp Era.
I asked why he bit his brother. Because he was stepping on his quilt's arm. He slept with the quilt and did not drag it around like Linus. Until then I did not know Quiltie was an entity or had arms.
I feel sure his bitten brother was messing with him over and over and he simply snapped.

I do laundry. When DH does laundry, he gets pink underwear and all my sweaters are the size of postage stamps. It just isn't worth the hassle.
Right now, we are remodeling so we don't have a washer or dryer. I go to the local laundromat, which is old, small, hot, and half the machines don't work. A single wash load is $5. It ain't cheap. But I'm done in two hours, which is okay with me.

Yep. My brother and I were the same til he got stronger than me when he was in junior high. Bummer. We fought like savages over the remote control starting in 5th grade (me) and 3rd for him. Sent to our rooms. We then called each other names over the intercom with our parents listening downstairs. I once catapulted him up five stairs and he hit the door with a loud thud. I got in more trouble but it was totally worth it.
The main thing our grands fought over here physically (to our muffled laughter) was a child's mop. I said I will buy two rakes and snow shovels but I will not buy another mop.
I am going to mount that mop whenever all the grands are grown. Like a trophy.

Thats why I don't touch mrs B's clothes. because these get washed with "this" cycle, and with "that" soap, and those get washed with "that" cycle, and "that" soap. The "these" get dried for "this" many minutes and then get hung, and "those" can stay in the dryer to the end at "this" drying temperature. No going there, nope.

Utterly ridiculous. If hitting equates with child abuse, then one swat is still hitting. Some children do not respond to other forms of punishment.
My parents' generation did not consider discipline to be abuse.
That said, my mom held me down while my dad beat me black and blue once. I think he was angry enough to cause permanent damage and I'm not at all certain why he stopped. I guess since I refused to yell or cry, he finally gave up.
I doubt either one of them ever regretted doing that. I guess that certainly counts as abuse.

Yes. I did this one time when our father caught us up in a neighbor's tree. He'd told us she complained and to stop. I remember him in his car below us telling us to go home. Went home that summer day and got a switch.
He left a welt on my calf and his own mother told him she wanted to switch him when she saw it. He never did that again.
The problem with me and spankings was that I'd laugh when I saw him sitting on the closed toilet as the bathroom was the spanking room. I had to fake cry while my brother wailed enough for both of us. Daddy knew and would ask me if I'd had enough (he'd crack his belt near but not hit us). Yais.
Spankings were thankfully rare as I remember them. Once because (age 5) I lied that I'd eaten all my fried oysters that I hated. They watched me stuff my mouth and go spit in the toilet. Then asked if I was ready for dessert and I was. I got spanked due to lying and never had to eat oysters again. Worth it.

Wait, so they line-dried their clothes? Water vapor is a far stronger greenhouse gas than CO2; it absorbs far more infrared frequencies, and does so better because it's a polar molecule. Line-drying clothes is horrible for the environment!

My parents' generation did not consider discipline to be abuse.
That said, my mom held me down while my dad beat me black and blue once. I think he was angry enough to cause permanent damage and I'm not at all certain why he stopped. I guess since I refused to yell or cry, he finally gave up.
I doubt either one of them ever regretted doing that. I guess that certainly counts as abuse.
Posted by: tcn in AK at August 14, 2026 11:20 PM (Ez0ut)
My parents had no fucks to give when it came to whacking us, BUT, because of that they didn't need to do it often because we knew they meant business. My mother's approach was pretty direct. I can still hear her "we're going into that woman's house, and if you touch anything I'll break your fucking fingers". Her other biggie was threatening to drop us off in the ghetto, and with my grandparents all being from east orange, which was pretty close to Newark, we knew exactly what that meant. The upside was any time we were out people would compliment my mother on her "well behaved children".

That sounds like the correct type of discipline.
I, unfortunately, inconvenienced my parents after they ignored me all morning. I asked permission, but they never acknowledged me. So I did it anyway, and they ended up beating hell out of me.
Not the same thing, at all.
I learned to never be noticed for anything after that. I became the invisible kid. It wasn't particularly healthy, but it kept them from beating me, so I guess it worked. I also assumed that what they did was a perfectly normal response to my bad behavior. It wasn't.

Sort it by weight and color. Put the lightest fabric in first, so it goes in the dryer first, and dries by the time the next load is ready to go to the dryer. Heavy fabric goes last because it takes the longest to dry.

Oregon flooded the same year, and it wiped out a number of major cities on the Willamette, like Old Town Independence and Champoeg.

Hi four seasons. I've been thinking about your neighbor, what a jerk. I get torn between wanting to prank or becoming afraid of doing anything should all of my suspicions about a certain neighbor being psychotic turn out to be true. I won't poke the bear.
BC, I bookmarked your video, but if I commit to those ten minutes right now I may never return tonight.
Mike Hammer and publius, I followed the link on the Superegg, I thought it was the latest women's weapon against toxic men. If you fertilize the superegg you will unleash hell upon earth. Anyway, I started reading at the link and quickly realized that the subject matter was way above my pay grade. I'm retired.

A perfect sphere has three Killing vectors (directions). An oblate spheroid has only one. To a first approximation, the Erf is a sphere, to a second, better, on it's an oblate spheroid.
At any rate, East-West is the Killing direction on the globe.

Geodesics on a sphere are just great circles. If you "walk straight" on a sphere, you come back to where you started, circumnavigating the globe.
However, on a oblate spheroid, that is not the case except for some special cases, such as meridians and east-west exactly on the equator.
For any other direction, if you "go straight", that curve doesn't close. If you were compelled to walk a straight line on the earth in general, you would never get back to where you started. You'd get infinitely close eventually, but never there exactly. And you'd cover just about every point on the surface between two lines of north and south latitude depending on the initial direction.
You'd roam the earth forever, just walking a straight line.

----Yes! But I have wide feet. Maybe others don't have that problem. (Also, the higher heels force toes tightly into the shoe, which can cause painful ingrown toenails. Sheer joy, lemme tell ya!

We have the opposite here, 19 yo cat Butterscotch and a 3 yo Gordon Setter, Flash.
I posted here on the ONT just over a week ago the county called and said we had to get the 19 yo, indoor cat for yrs, vaxxed for rabies. We did last Fri. and she has been in a state of decline ever since. Dammit, tried to get out of it, but no exceptions.
Today I had to carry her to the food and water and she barely sipped the water. Flash is not happy with things, he knows something is wrong. I doubt Butterscotch makes it through the night.

Brian Thompson was an Iowa native and humble University of Iowa grad, living in Minnesota near UnitedHealth's Minnetonka HQ. As far as I can tell, he was just a regular, stand-up, salt-of-the-Earth guy -- the kind who was already busy enough with work and family, and helped charities anyway.
When he was killed, I wanted to find out more about him, trying to make sense of it. (There was none.) I remember reading how he had been involved in Second Harvest, or whatever their local gleaning thing was called. Solid choice, when I volunteer it's with either a local hospital or a food bank, and he was already working with the former professionally. Everyone needs to eat. What a guy!
All that to say, a guy like that is going to build the kind of peaceful, sheltered family that would never in a million years take the kind of vengeance he deserves. More's the pity.

Seriously any of you know Latin, what would be a word for "soy boy", or "effeminate beta"?
In koine Greek, the Apostle Paul used the Greek slang term for "effeminate" (catcher) 'malakos' which, like many words depends on the context, and when used outside of faggotry means 'soft". As arsenekoites is reserved for homosexual male and immediately follows 'malakos' in 1 Corinthians 6:9 as catcher/pitcher.
Saint Jerome translated it as "neque molles neque mascolorum concubitores"
So he kept "soft".

It's pretty much unpredictable long term, although there are some interesting short and long term periodic terms there.

Here's a graph of solar luminosity since about 1600 (where they get that from way back, I don't know):
https://t.ly/OCyoN
Note that little flat-line from about 1650 to 1700+. That's the famous Maunder Minimum.
Incidentally, there was a little rotation speed up of the Erf that preceded that. It's considered "fringe" to consider any link between the two, but some "wackos" think there is some link, some magnetic coupling between the earth's geodynamo and the sun.

I’ve a question for your chemistry knowledge. A woodcrafter was demonstrating that a flint & steel can get even a wet char cloth to take a spark, and get a fire going. Before matches, this was a common way to get a fire going for a long, long time. But I would have thought char cloth (burnt cotton material, charred in a tin in the absence of air) would need to be bone dry. Apparently, this is due to the fact that Carbon cannot absorb water.
Does this sound right? Pretty cool in any case.

It's also a open question whether the Erf will get swallowed up by the Sun when it does get to the red giant phase in another 5 billion years or so.
Mercury and Venus are goners, but Erf might or might not make it. Solar mass loss will let the earth slowly spiral outward. Solar system is so chaotic on these long term time scales that anything could happen, really.
Mars will be quite nice once the Sun's luminosity gets too much for us here. For a while.

The Electric Universe stuff is mostly just woo, as far as it "dominating gravity" and that sort of stuff.
Now, any torques on the Efr due to magnetic coupling with the Sun's field are vanishingly small, but something else could be going on, don't know what.

It's the spark that is unaffected by water.
I think there is a special technique needed to get wet char cloth to ignite. The spark is 800℉ hot, but little total energy, so water can douse the spark if you do not get close to the cloth.

The not-so-woo ideas about a coupling between the Sun's magnetic field and the earth's own geodynamo would be some small effect, not any direct torque, but something that causes a perturbation to the geodynamo mechanism, which changes the core-mantle coupling and all that.

Already started. Saw the effect on new doctors about 4-5 years ago. From what I have seen regarding legal opinions, the rot has been going on in law schools for over twenty. Others will have to opine on engineering and science. Computer software though has become awful since about 2000 when big tech started hiring foreigners via H1Bs and that the ones with the most H1Bs and clearing out of Heritage Americans have the crappiest software stuffed with crap no one wants and barely functional.

Jokes on them, their standards are falling too, where do you think the teachers, a job the elite think are below them, come from. They are the lower ranked proles at the Ivys in some cases, public school teachers that got tired of the crap in others.
Ivy league grads are about in the same position that the Ivys were back in the 40's, some brilliant profs and students, but mostly nepots and now foreigners there for networking. The professors there no longer can openly say what a woman is and the ones that know what a woman is are forced to dissemble and pretend they don't. Our top academic institutions are declining just like the regular population's and so to are their kids.
This idea that elites have that they can run away from the mess they have made to boltholes and keep their wealth is truly so egotistically stupid because if Darkness Falls, they get it in the neck too. If nothing else by their own bodyguards because why die for a schmuck when you can take what they have.

Well, in this particular case, it would have looked quite different depending on where you are. In the Mediterranean, depending, you have the Phalanx in 400bc. By 400AD, you have the advent of mobile cavalry, as well as proto heavy cavalry further east. If not outright Cataphracts is the far mid east.
And that time period would have jumped right over the Legion (whether in 'Punic' or Marian configuration and usage.)

The Week In Woke
Moronic DEI degenerate Don Lemon demands a court dismiss the charges against him for invading a church to scream at the attendees, gaysplaining that Drumpf is just obsessed with him.
The left has ginned up another George Floyd hoax, this time claiming that violent, knife-armed man attacking cops shouldn't have been shot because he's black. Yes, that's pretty much their argument. No one would make this preposterous case if cops shot a knife-wielding, out-of-control, violent white man. The woke DA of Madison, WI is determined to put cops in jail for defending the public and their own lives, and went so far as to make the cop's name public to put his life in danger and subject him to Antifa Justice, the only true justice to the left.
Don Lemon wants a federal judge to throw out the criminal charges against him stemming from an anti-ICE demonstration that disrupted a church service in Minnesota, with the former CNN anchor arguing that the prosecution is politically motivated because of President Donald Trump's longstanding dislike of him. Lemon's attorneys filed a motion seeking dismissal of the federal civil-rights charges, claiming his prosecution violates the First Amendment and is the product of President Trump's alleged "animus" toward the journalist. "The record could not be more clear that Mr. Lemon has been a persistent target of President Trump's ire before the events in Minnesota," Lemon's attorneys wrote, according to Variety. The filing further alleges that the Justice Department "acted on the President's animus by filing unprecedented charges against a journalist for doing his job." That's Lemon's argument. Federal prosecutors have alleged something considerably different: that Lemon's conduct went beyond simply observing and reporting on a demonstration that entered a church while congregants were attempting to worship.
What Happened Inside Cities Church ... According to the Justice Department, Lemon was charged with conspiracy against the right of religious freedom at a place of worship under 18 U.S.C. § 241 and injuring, intimidating, or interfering with the exercise of religious freedom at a place of worship under 18 U.S.C. § 248. The latter statute is part of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, or FACE Act, which also contains protections for people exercising their religious rights at places of worship. The DOJ eventually charged dozens of people in connection with the incident. Lemon has pleaded not guilty. His defense now hinges heavily on the contention that, regardless of what the demonstrators themselves were doing, he was present solely as an independent journalist covering their actions.
There's another attempt to hang a cop for defending himself in Colorado. A black man -- of course; this would not be "murder" if it were a white man -- kept advancing on a cop who repeatedly told him to stop advancing on him. The man also kept shouting to his son to pick up the gun he had tossed on the ground, to shoot the cop, of course. Ultimately, the cop shot the man who would not stop advancing on him and would not stop urging his son to pick a gun off the ground. So it's another George Floyd hoax.
Madison police officer Kiel Baitinger-Peterson survived an encounter with a man armed with a knife. Now his name is public, his family's safety is a concern, and precautions are being taken to protect them. Welcome to the second ordeal faced by an officer who already survived the first one. PBS Wisconsin (emphasis mine):... The Wisconsin Department of Justice identified Baitinger-Peterson Monday as the officer who fatally shot 38-year-old Corey Ruiz on July 22. The facts released so far are remarkably clear. Police responded after reports of someone checking parked vehicles and an alleged burglary attempt. Ruiz fled on a bicycle; four officers later encountered him near South Baldwin and Williamson streets, and a struggle followed. Ruiz brandished a knife and injured Baitinger-Peterson. Two other officers tried Tasers, which failed. Baitinger-Peterson fired his weapon; another officer was also injured. Investigators recovered a fixed-blade knife at the scene. ... Yet long before investigators finished their work, Madison Alder Noah Lieberman publicly called Ruiz's death "absolutely unacceptable" and wrote that he found it difficult to imagine any justification for the officers' actions. He encouraged people sharing his outrage to join peaceful protests. Police Chief John Patterson hadn't yet been able to answer Lieberman's questions about precisely how quickly events unfolded. Now the public has Baitinger-Peterson's name. Wisconsin Professional Police Association Executive Director Jim Palmer says he's deeply concerned about the safety and privacy of Baitinger-Peterson, his family, and the other officers. Palmer says officials are taking those concerns seriously and have put appropriate precautions in place. Think about what those words mean. A cop with nearly 11 years of law enforcement experience leaves home one morning, gets injured by a man wielding a knife, survives, and later learns his wife, children, parents, or whoever else shares his life may need protection because strangers now know exactly whom to hate. Civil rights attorney Ben Crump, who's been crawling from racial scene to racial scene and represents Ruiz's family, has already called for Baitinger-Peterson to be charged.
Investigators on Aug. 10 released the name of the Madison police officer who shot and killed a 38-year-old Black man in July -- a shooting that was captured on video and sparked protests that put Wisconsin's capital city on edge over how authorities treat people of color. Kiel Baitinger-Peterson, a white officer with nearly 11 years' experience in law enforcement, fired the shots that killed Corey Ruiz on July 22, the Wisconsin Department of Justice's Division of Criminal Investigation said in a statement. Baitinger-Peterson was one of four officers who surrounded Ruiz, who was on a bike, in response to calls about someone who was checking out parked cars and an alleged burglary attempt, police said. The shooting sparked days of protests and calls from the Black community for Madison to address racial justice issues. Baitinger-Peterson did not reply to an email seeking comment.
The left is pushing the idea -- they don't dare say this aloud, but this is what they're fighting for -- that black men may veto a cop's arrest. They can simply decide they don't want to be arrested, and violently resist arrest, and the cop is then obligated to Respect the Arrest-Veto of a Black Man and let him go. Obviously, we cannot allow members of a specific race to decide that they are immune to the law. But that's what the left is insisting on. And they also insist we infinitely indulge teen takeovers. Meanwhile, in between insisting that black people are immune to the law, CNN spends its time pushing hoax stories about black people being lynched by whites.
Officer Charles Neely repeatedly backs away as Stubblefield advances on him, while Stubblefield can be heard telling his son to retrieve a gun from the ground. Neely keeps retreating until he's being forced toward the street--and only then does he fire. I've watched the footage. I don't see murder. I see an officer using deadly force in defense of his life. So how did prosecutors get a murder indictment?

The Spectator
@spectator We can reveal that a former supporter of Hizb ut-Tahrir, now banned as a terror group, has been appointed assistant research professor of education at Cambridge, in the same faculty as Arday. Farah Ahmed has explicitly attacked 'western education' as a 'threat' to Muslims, condemned democracy and integration, and criticised British schools for teaching pupils that child marriage is wrong. During her time at Cambridge, she has written that the Islamic concept of education is sharply opposed to 'gaining literacy and numeracy and other disciplinary skills demonstrated through qualifications'. These statements are part of her long record of bigoted, extremist and separatist views on education.

Polycule
In polyamory, a polycule is a group of individuals involved in romantic relationships that connect all the members in the group. It is neither necessary nor common for every individual of the polycule to be in a relationship with every other individual. The most simple and arguably most common polycule structure is a V-shaped structure: a three-person polycule where one person is dating the two others, but the two others are not dating one another.
Like on Jerry Springer.
You know, it is possible she's the ugly one in the group and the rest are 9's and 10's.

Glad the Nashville teacher spoke. Good for her and the Houston supervisor. For once!!! MS got it right years ago and kept kids back who could not read or do math. I am sure they went through pure hell.
I failed 9th grade algebra. The only class I failed. My parents would never threaten or make a scene. I failed because I hated x and my teacher, a woman who drank and smoked, only liked the gifted students. My mother called her mid-term with me present. She asked this old bag if a tutor would help. Teacher cackled like a wicked witch and said probably nothing would help me. My Southern mother politely thanked her. Hung up and told me it's ok, don't worry about it, you can take it again. I did and made a B under a different teacher. I was an A&B student in HS and college. I made a B in college algebra (I still hate x). An A in college trig.

If it was a bogus prosecution, then that could be the reason, and evidence of it admissible in the follow-on suit. But I have a LOT of "political animus" toward all sorts of law-breakers. I hate people who groom or prey on kids. I hate terrorists. I hate people who pull the "Don't you know who I am?" gambit (and think they should absolutely be prosecuted).
If you're innocent, fine. But if you're guilty, and the evidence against you isn't poisoned by a direct violation of your civil rights, then I want YOUR A** IN PRISON.
I care that someone might come after you with a bogus prosecution, and I want that person drummed out (and maybe going to prison their own selves). But YOUR guilt is independent of that.

Execution. Sorry but if you get a dude on the ground your gun ain't supposed to be out period
I am fine if they shot him as he was reaching for a weapon maybe. That is self defense. But to shoot an unarmed man is a crime.
3 shots? That's murder.
That was one of the cruelest executions I've ever witnessed, and all because you hired a FAT ASS who couldn't pass a 10 yr olds boot camp. He was almost at cardiac arrest, so he decided a quick shot to the man's head who was being held down by two or three Cops. Bring that shit to my neighborhood , and you should bring as many body bags as men you send.
What if people started standing up against this kind of government action? The American people are so weak and this is only happening because of how weak they are.
he had a knife. they disarmed him before he was shot. its a homicide.
Three to the head for a fucking knife? I can think of 10 other actions off the top of my head before firing 3 shots to the skull of a man on the ground and I’ve got people helping me and help on the way. ACAB

He's never called me darlin!!! But it's ok as he's one sexy grandfather and I ain't lying. He calls me weird stuff, which I deserve and answer to as it's funny from our history.
When he showed attention to a 9mo old baby girl before we were engaged I was hooked. Until then I had not thought of him as husband material.

No, darlin' because I ain't stoopit.
This reminds me that my husband calls our youngest grandbaby, "darlin.'" And she is. She tried her best to cluck like a hen this week at 11mo.
He's never called me darlin!!! But it's ok as he's one sexy grandfather and I ain't lying. He calls me weird stuff, which I deserve and answer to as it's funny from our history.
When he showed attention to a 9mo old baby girl before we were engaged I was hooked. Until then I had not thought of him as husband material.
Pay attention to this, boys!

Will Fauci Ever Be Charged?
Plus: Terry Moran Says He Did a Piece for ABC Asking if Covid Was Created in the Wuhan Lab. ABC Killed the Piece -- On Fauci's Orders.
Texts show that Fauci was a willing conspirator to mass murder.
Miranda Devine claims that Fauci might wind up facing criminal charges for obstruction of Congress and destruction of federal records.
Dr. Anthony Fauci said he'd been warned about "significant cytokines storm and fever" after 2nd dose, with pregnancy implications. Louisiana AG says people who raised same concerns were told "we were anti-vaxxers and we were liars." From the first week of the Biden administration, public health officials including Dr. Anthony Fauci privately expressed concern that pregnant women who take both doses of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines early in pregnancy could miscarry, according to a text chain recovered from Fauci's government-issued cellphone, released Monday by GOP Sens. Ron Johnson and Rand Paul. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy asked Fauci, then-director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky whether they had "any data or theoretical reason why vaccinating early vs late in pregnancy would be preferred." Murthy said he was telling pregnant women there was no "evidence of concerning adverse outcomes in the trials" while acknowledging the number of pregnant women in the COVID vaccine trials were "likely [...] limited." Fauci reminded him that "pregnant women were not allowed" in the trials. Within two hours of telling Murthy there was a "misperception" even from "female health care professionals" that vaccination "very early in pregnancy" could be harmful, Fauci told the chain he "asked around a bit more." He was warned that the "significant cytokines storm and fever" that commonly follow the second dose "theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester." Walensky and Murthy both agreed the second-dose concern was a "good point," and Walensky added that she had heard concerns about "mRNA causing mutations in the developing fetus as well." The next day, Murthy was panicking about the World Health Organization recommending pregnant women not take the Moderna mRNA vaccine "unless they are at risk of high exposure." He called it "potentially quite damaging to public confidence among pregnant women," and Walensky agreed. Fauci reassured them that "more than 10,000" pregnant women had been vaccinated by that point after emergency use authorization: "No issues have arisen."
Sen. Rand Paul is examining Dr. Anthony Fauci's government-issued phone and says he is taking a special interest in whether it contains evidence of "deletions." That's significant because Fauci's former factotum, David Morens, is awaiting trial on charges of concealing and destroying government records, allegedly on behalf of his boss, and is facing up to 51 years in prison. Not that many people know that, since only one reporter covered his arraignment in May: The Post's own Josh Christenson. Paul may have bigger ambitions for Fauci than the criminal referral for contempt of Congress he sent off to the DOJ last week, after the former COVID czar pleaded the Fifth an excruciating 111 times in his Senate committee testimony rather than come clean with the American people about why he funded dangerous gain-of-function research in China's Wuhan lab. If Fauci can be shown to have concealed or destroyed government records, then he could find himself sitting alongside Morens in the dock, depending on how robust his last-minute pre-emptive autopen pardon from Joe Biden proves to be. In previous data dumps from Paul's Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, Fauci is already on record telling two associates to delete emails.
On February 2, 2020, in the early stages of the pandemic, Fauci wrote to his boss Dr. Francis Collins, then director of the NIH, about the WHO's handling of questions about the origins of COVID: "Please delete this email after you read it." On July 20, 2020, Fauci emailed his chief of staff, Greg Folkers, about Paul's accurate claim that Florida's handling of COVID was more successful than New York's, writing that the senator, a licensed doctor who volunteered at a Kentucky hospital during the pandemic, was "full of s--t", before instructing Folkers to "please delete this e-mail after you read it." Fauci declared in sworn congressional testimony in 2024 that he never deleted official records and has repeatedly distanced himself from Morens and denied knowledge of the "secret back channel" Morens claimed in emails that he had to his boss. Like the pardon of his son, Hunter, Joe Biden's retrospective pardon covered Fauci for any offenses he may have committed in the seven years between Jan. 1, 2014, and the end of Biden's term in January 2025, related to his work as director of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, a member of the White House's COVID-19 task force and chief medical adviser to the president. The unusual start date of the pardon, six years before the pandemic began, suggests some of Fauci's legal problems are connected to the period when he was funding dangerous gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology from which a lab leak is believed to have sparked the global health crisis that led to millions of deaths. ... Fauci and his boss Francis Collins have categorically denied that they funded the research at Wuhan, but the funding path via cutout EcoHealth is documented and undeniable, as is Fauci and Morens' pally relationship with EcoHealth head Peter Daszak. Included in the case against Morens are allegations he accepted bottles of wine from an unnamed co-conspirator reported to be Daszak. ... Fauci's government-issued phone was uncovered last June by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., according to FBI Director Kash Patel, who told podcaster Joe Rogan at the time about the "great breakthrough." "We think that there was definite foul play . . . That's what we're working on," Patel told Rogan last June. .. Paul told Mark Halperin's podcast last week that his investigators were searching for evidence of deleted material on the phone and any "indication someone has cleaned up or wiped the phone." If such evidence is found, it would place Fauci in the same boat as Morens. ... Nobody would be surprised if Morens repaid the disloyalty by offering to testify against Fauci if he were offered a plea deal.

Six people are dead, including the suspected gunman, while another was left critically injured in what appears to be a massive shooting spree in Michigan.
State troopers said they were called to a home on LaChance Road in Missaukee County at around 11.40am on Friday about someone being shot.
When troopers then arrived at the scene, they found three people dead and another critically injured.
Investigators later found another deceased person near a wooded area around Whitlock Lake and a fifth inside a separate home.
The shooting sparked a manhunt for the suspected gunman Chad Hickman, 39, who was considered armed and dangerous. But he, too, was also reportedly found dead.

He should burn - but this was not just Fauci. So many were part of it. So many were willing victims - and perpetrators.
Personalizing it to Fauci can be both good and bad. I feel now like it's just a defense, and the safest of all since "nothing will happen" to him. "Well it was Fauci you see. That incorrigible Fauci! Good thing he's gone! Problem solved! What're you gonna do!!"

No indictments will come to fruition based on one simple philosophical point. To indict and serve justice to these people, it requires to admit THEY WERE WRONG. That, in itself, is a near impossibility. BUT, what truly is unfathomable is that they would, also, have to admit YOU WERE RIGHT, in the same breath.
That's not going to happen....EVER.

In January of 2019 I was reading & finding all I could about cytokine storms. Figuring if we got it to keep our temps down as much as possible; altho knowing sometimes a fever is needed.
It was compared to the 1918 Influenza. The research of the new drug, aspirin, being given at toxic levels by MD's who tried. One doc gave baking soda alkaline water instead & his patients lived. Busy as well as shocked at how weirdly the news was developing. I knew that a N95 mask would not work & paper masks would not do anything for a virus.
I still stupidly wiped down groceries! Which was possibly the only stupid thing we did. At least I did not drive my car wearing a mask, so I get a gold star!
I think we got covid the first time in February 2020. Did fine. A cold & I am typically a mess with lung stuff.
Fauci is sad he got caught with his diaries. He's also rather stupid to think deleted emails are not in the Cloud.
What's even better is that his ego hung him with his own written petard!
Maybe he will go the way of Arday. His ugly bioethics wife can throw the middle finger for the rest of her days.

Reading blogs and staying away from mainstream news helped, as it just made me even more mad and stubborn. I never got tested but knew it was it when I lost all smell for a week. Husband got it from me and got tested and the hired county nurse calls me and demands I stay home for 2 weeks. No way.....and that was it in terms of listening to anybody in public health again.

I got something quite strong, very flu-like, in early December of 2019. Rest, food, medicines for symptoms, more rest, and I was okay within the usual time frame. Never caught anything again until the summer of 2022, not long after I brought Stirling home from the shelter. Maybe I'd picked up something from them. That time it was not as bad, though.

Little man syndrome. As I've said, other boys (maybe girls like me) picked on him in school. He worked to be "the smartest man in the world" and adored by Julia Roberts (gag). His ego was far larger than his stature. And that's why he's doomed.
As a malignant pathological narcissist he's miserable being criticized.The worst thing possible other than prison for a narcissist who reached the peak. Trust me on this observation.
Three states are now suing him and more will follow. The pardon will not protect his money in states. His ego is forever damaged and his trashy bioethics wife can't change that for him.
Caught like a fly in the spider's web and he deserves every second awake and knowing he's a lying failure who used his position to murder. Getting caught due to his own inflated ego.
It's perfection if he is not drawn and quartered after facing a guilty sentence. To know he's angry, defeated, and this is the remainder of his life. Pleading the 5th did not save him from this.

They kept talking about the projected outcomes for the two groups of people - the vaccinated and the unvaccinated.
I was unvaxxed and got Covid once. My wife had to get vaxxed twice for her job (public school teacher) and got sick with positive Covid tests multiple times.
I would care for her at home and stay in close proximity, but never caught a second case.
I know that is anecdotal evidence, but people that have survived small pox don't need the small pox vaccine. That should have been the default position for the "scientists", but they lied (by omission) to push the vax.

In June of 2025 the doc was cool with the fact I had covid and no other symptoms but a screaming headache. Told to alternate Tylenol and Advil for 3 days and isolate for those days. All was well.
I found it odd that it was the same treatment as we did for the flu in the mid-80s. I would not have taken an antiviral anyway. No one else got it.

I pointed out the vaccine was experimental, after a couple posters were figuratively doing cartwheels on their lawn because they were able to finagle an early inoculation. I was immediately attacked as some sort of nut. "It's not experimental!! It's just like the Flu shot we get every year!! REEEE" another guy said "We will not be silenced!" LOL! what?? I can tell who wants people to be silenced.
It was bizarre. Thankfully the moderator of the board allowed that, yes indeed, this was a brand new experimental vaccine of an untried technology. Notable too, I just wished them "good luck" in all sincerity. For their part, they wished DEATH on people who declined to participate. We are not dealing with rational people. I can't figure it out.

The Left's New Charlie Manson, Dreamboat Killer Luigi Mangione, Pleads Guilty to Federal Stalking Resulting in a Death, Admits He Murdered Brian Thompson
If he's killed in prison, it's your fault.
Do better.And he'd better get life in prison. I'm seeing on twitter that New York state has a more expansive definition of double jeopardy than most states, or the feds, do. Double jeopardy usually applies for the exact same charges. So in most jurisdictions, a conviction for stalking with intent to kill would not result in a bar for prosecuting this scumbag for murder under New York state law. But apparently in New York, a judge might rule that the charges are close enough so that double jeopardy does apply. So if we don't get life in prison... well, this plea might wind up wiping out the New York state prosecution.
Luigi Mangione pleaded guilty to federal stalking charges and admitted in federal court on Friday that he shot and killed a health care executive in Manhattan in 2024. "I shot Mr. Thompson in Manhattan. I understood that my actions would place him in fear of death of bodily injury. I knew what I was doing was illegal," Mangione told the judge, the New York Times reported. Judge Margaret M. Garnett accepted the plea and said she will sentence Mangione on Dec. 18. He faces a maximum of life in prison. Mangione, 28, was not charged with murder in the federal case, which accused him only of stalking Brian Thompson, CEO of UnitedHealthcare. He still faces a murder charge in state court, which is scheduled to go to trial next month. In federal court, Mangione faced one count of interstate stalking resulting in death and one count of stalking through use of interstate facilities resulting in death. Both charges carry a maximum potential sentence of life in prison.

I'll be honest, I think it was a coin flip he would even get convicted at all. I can't believe the amount of people that somehow equate hating their health ins company and thinking that justifies murdering a CEO.
So I guess if a Medicare or Medicaid bureaucrat gets gunned down, totally fair game.

To get him to plead, the feds either have other charges that would destroy Mangina's rep like sex tourism in Thailand sort of charges, or they threatened friends or family with accessory charges. Otherwise, why take the rap which precludes appealing anything other than the sentence.

"The recommended baseline sentence for federal stalking with violence is derived from USSG §2A6.2, which sets a base offense level of 18. This level increases by 2 levels for specific aggravating factors such as bodily injury, violation of a protection order, or use of a dangerous weapon, and by an additional 4 levels if multiple aggravating factors are present.
Key sentencing components include:
Base Offense Level: 18 for stalking or domestic violence under federal guidelines.
Aggravating Enhancements: An increase of 2 levels for a single aggravating factor (e.g., bodily injury or weapon use) and 4 levels for multiple factors.
Statutory Maximums: While the guideline range starts at level 18, statutory penalties under 18 U.S.C. § 2261A can range from 5 years to life imprisonment if the stalking results in death.
Recent Precedent: In recent high-profile cases involving stalking resulting in death, prosecutors have recommended sentences ranging from 24 to 30 years or life imprisonment, depending on the severity and specific circumstances. "

In past cases (Rodney King, etc)…cops would get put on trial for assault, etc. This would be a state trial. They would be found Not Guilty. The Fed’s would then take a shot at them. But not for assault. They would charge them with conspiring to violate their civil rights. They got a conviction. Different type of charge = no double jeopardy.

I think that may happen if the jury selection and pretrial rulings on excluding evidence goes poorly for the defense. Take the plea to save the life and if the state refuses, then try your best to not argue so much on guilt but save it for sentencing as the jury must impose a death sentence, not the judge.

Heh. Ask AI yourself. But the sentencing guidelines you can actually put in the specific guideline at some defense attorney websites and it will spit out the sentencing range. Pretty funny and sobering at the same time.
Useful though for frequent fliers for defense attorneys I suppose as that sort of lawyer specializes in contacts with the prosecution and court to get a plea deal on the best terms you might get.

My wife used to be an attorney for abused children (guardian ad litem). She would come home from work and tell me over dinner about the sh*t conditions some innocent child had to face.
It took a while, but the "husband" portion of my brain eventually processed that was her means of moving on.
I, on the other hand, have an over-developed sense of vengeance. I woke up absolutely enraged at 3AM on multiple occasions.

Matt Walsh tied it to these same women wanting the ability to "abort" their children at any time after the kid is born for the same reasons that they should be able to abort their child during gestation.
I think it is simpler than that. The problem moral people have is that they project their vocabulary of morality on to people who have none. The idea that "you take from me is wrong. I take from you is right" is how most of humanity sees morality. Even "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need" has underlying it the vocabulary of morality, that is why the pseudo-moral injection of "ability" and "need" to justify the theft.
Today's Leftist women do not know God and have reverted to the amoral state where:

People do not understand how unique Christianity is in terms of world religion. Exposing unwanted children or selling them into slavery is the human norm. Christians were looked on as weird when they raised foundlings as their own rather than enslave them.
As we re-paganize, we're getting all the same things the pagans did, like normalizing adultery, mainstreaming sodomy, infanticide and now the slave trade (via surrogate mothers).

It was premeditated. He planned it, crossing state lines. First degree murder of a man he did not know. Back pain as a reason my fat arse.
He was a poor little rich boy who went to a private HS. Valedictorian. At U Penn he graduated cum laude in engineering.

Cambridge's Fabulous Fabulist Jason Arday Found Dead, Assumedly By His Own Hand
This is your fault, Racists. You forced him to lie cheat and steal his way into a position he never had any right to, and you forced the woke communists of Cambridge to promote him to such a high position that his inevitable downfall would be deadly.
Benjamin Ryan
@benryanwriter 50m Jason Arday found dead Academic had resigned from the University of Cambridge last week Jason Arday, the former University of Cambridge professor, has been found dead. Mr Arday was found "unresponsive" at an address in Battersea, south London, on Friday afternoon. He was later pronounced dead at the scene. A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said officers were called by the London Ambulance Service at 3.12pm on Friday. He said: "Sadly, a 41-year-old man was pronounced dead at the scene. His next-of-kin have been informed and are being supported by officers. "At this time his death is being treated as unexpected, but is not believed to be suspicious. The case is being investigated by officers from the Met's Central South Command Unit. A file will be prepared for the coroner."
I can't even stand the sight of you. #DoBetter, Racists. #DoBetter. I'm not gloating here. Any death is sad. I'm merely reacting, proactively, to the attempt by the left to shame me for their elevation of a basket-case dullard and liar to a perch he would inevitably fall from.
Adrian HiltonRemember, entitled, privileged narcissists are too sheltered and weak and fragile to handle the consequences of their actions. So it's incumbent on you to protect them from those consequences. So you have to indulge them as they kill members of your family. "Why is all of this happening to meeeeeee?"
@Adrian_Hilton
Prof Hilary Cremin @CamEdFac is a disgrace to Education. Baroness Morgan @FitzwilliamColl and Sonita Alleyne @JesusCollegeCam need to resign. And so should the Vice Chancellor of @Cambridge_Uni, Deborah Prentice, who has plunged this once great University to the depths. All those who sat on the two panels and judged Jason Arday worthy of two professorial positions need to search their souls. I said a few days ago that this scandal was of Shakespearean proportions: it is now a monumental tragedy. Shame on all those who never assessed his academic inadequacy and the consequences for his emotional vulnerability.

However, to never address what he did as a lying, plagerist DEI hire (as far as I know and it ain't much, baybee)...well.
He was ruthlessly picked on when the TRUTH came out of his dreamy world of lecturing about racism vs the syllabus. He probably thought the syllabus was a "silly bus" after many years of riding the short bus.
Based on my excellent observations as a world renowned anthropologist (if he can pretend, so can I), he wasn't "all there" in his noggin. Flat affect in photos. Eyes like Little Orphan Annie in the cartoons.
I also base all of my observations due to Saturday morning cartoons or watching the Three Stooges at an early age for many years.

why was this book even published? It should be classified as fantasy. he's a fabulist.
Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2026
Format: Hardcover
This book is not a memoir, it is fiction. Everyone who thinks this book bears any relationship to reality should read the copious reporting on the author, who is clearly a fabulist. He claims he couldn't speak until he was 11: there are interviews with people who knew him as a child who say he was chatty. He claims he had a variety of different cancers, and appears to change which ones. He claims to have gone on a trip to Brazil with a program that doesn't take volunteers on such trips. His story changes every time someone asks him a question. I mean, read it if you want, but whatever lessons you take from it are based on fiction.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I’ve watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die. Either this wallpaper goes or I do. It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known. I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country. I die that France may live. Hold my beer and watch this.

*********
I've been meaning to tell you how much I love your nic.
I guess I never reached those levels in college. I did harf under a pick up once (I don't know why) while camping one night. That's where one of my male posse found me. He asked me what I was doing and I told him I did not know. Thankfully not dead or run over. I guess it was because I never harf and took shelter.
Someone, I think, put Everclear in the punch that night as I had famous hollow legs for parties as a supermodel. I could hold my own when others faded away.
I've never had a black out, thankfully, and only harfed twice in college.
I'd get "the spins" and go outside for fresh air. The man who married me said I did this twice and recovered with him. Once after a lesbo asked me out and he had to tell her I was straight. We were not dating at the time and I argued with him that I was not straight as I did not understand lesbians at 22yrs.
I hated that story of the bride getting killed after her wedding. Very sad and I did not read it again and hope she rots in prison

If you recall the bust of the lame-ass plot to attack the White House lawn UFC etc. shindig, there was this one fat, prematurely balding, neckbearded basement troll who bought some rather expensive guns and accessories. And I said, you know, there's someone for everyone. And if he had spent that money flying out to meet and woo Greta, well, he probably would've failed.
But! It would've gotten him out of the basement, and then back home, there may have been a lonely femcel -- okay maybe a 2, but an actual XX -- ready to take advantage of his defeat. And also, he wouldn't be in prison. Lose/win(?)/win! (Which is the best net some can hope for.)

Record highest ever recorded in the US was in LA in 1982, with a *woman* who clocked in at 1.33%. and who was conscious and "oriented". That made the medical journals.
These, including those Poles, are extreme outliers -- high tolerance. Most of the population would be dead at those levels. ) The other US records are at the 0.7 - 0.8% range.

Trump Signs Executive Order Calling for Reforms in Child Vaccination Schedules; Pete Hegseth Wants a High-T Armed Forces
"Less controversial"? The left has opposed all of these proposals, including the ones they used to support. I saw media headlines asking if ultraprocessed foods, full of chemical preservatives and additives, were really bad for you like RFKJr. says. Motherf***ers, you've been decrying ultraprocessed foods for fifty f***ing years. Now of all a sudden you're not so sure?
President Donald Trump on Monday signed an executive order calling for revamped childhood vaccine recommendations that promote his long-held but discredited theory that childhood shots should be spaced out into separate medical visits. The order advocates separating the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine into three different single-disease shots and administering all childhood immunizations at separate appointments whenever possible. It also directs the nation's health department to improve research on vaccines, which are already extensively studied, and present a plan to offer separate measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines for children, since that is not currently an option in the United States. The renewed focus on vaccines marks a departure from the Trump administration's recent efforts to emphasize less controversial health policies related to healthy eating, drug price negotiations and medical fraud crackdowns ahead of November's midterm elections.
Oh dear, in the two months between vaccinations a child might encounter some of these largely-controlled diseases.
Public health experts have raised concerns that spacing out shots as Trump suggests can lead to an increased risk that children become infected with a vaccine-preventable disease before returning for another visit.
Childhood vaccines -- and how and when to give them in combination -- go through rigorous studies, and safety tracking continues for years as the shots are used. Trump called the announcement a "major victory for parents rights, religious and constitutional rights, and for the gold standard science."Trump's order specified that the schedule take account of the medical practices of other "peer, developed countries." In other words, other rich, advanced countries that aren't shithole countries with their heads up their asses. In other words: Europe and Japan. Because Europe and Japan aren't as vaccine-crazy as the American establishment wants this country to be. But this article doesn't mention that, because they don't want to admit to readers there are disputes about the American vaccination schedule, and those disputes are found in advanced, wealthy countries. And they do that because the "elites" do not believe in science or even democratic discussion. They believe in authoritarianism, and they like to claim "all of the experts" agree with us on this, so shut up, peon, and do what your superiors have commanded. It is deadly to this argument to admit that the experts in other advanced countries disagree. So they just don't even mention that. But the media is here to inform you, right?
Oh well we certainly wouldn't want any "uncertainty" about what our Medical Experts have decided is best for us, would we? They got everything 100% right during covid, right? The media is also freaking out because Pete Hegseth declared that good testosterone levels are good for military performance, and obviously the women and soyboys of the media react to testosterone like scraggly genderfuck vampires react to garlic.
Speaking about the order at the Oval Office on Monday, Trump repeatedly suggested the number or timing of vaccines could play a role in rising rates of autism spectrum disorder, even as scientific consensus and decades of studies have firmly concluded there is no link. The order also includes several changes to the childhood vaccine schedule that his health department has already attempted, but that have been blocked by a federal judge. A White House official who insisted on anonymity to brief reporters said Trump was within his right to provide his own recommendation through the executive order and said the lawsuit blocking the health department's schedule was a separate issue. Dr. Andrew Racine, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, said the announcement spreads uncertainty, fear and confusion where "there doesn't need to be any of that." He disputed Trump's recommendations and said previous ones should stand.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced Wednesday that he is rolling out a new screening program for "testosterone deficiency" among troops, calling it necessary to allow them to operate at their "absolute best." The screenings will be conducted annually as part of service members' required medical screenings for those 30 and older, he said. Troops under 30 can volunteer to be tested. In a video on social media, Hegseth said receiving testosterone replacement therapy would be voluntary. In the video, Hegseth simply refers to troops, though it appears he is talking about only testing men in uniform for hormone irregularities.Good Lord, they can't even let a program to test for testosterone be about men. They want to know why they're not screening women for testosterone, too.
Sign. What's the number of post-menopausal women in the military? A couple hundred? You know, the great bulk of the military is 1, Male, and 2, ages 20 to 40? And does a deficiency in estrogen reduce performance? I'm not saying that estrogen replacement isn't important for women. As I understand it, it improves women's lives and was wrongly withheld from women for decades due to flawed studies suggesting it was dangerous. But we cannot talk about men's issues for one single fucking second without the left shrieking But what about the hundred and fifty postmenopausal women in the military?!! WHAT ABOUT THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO MATTER?!
The move comes as other Trump administration officials have begun to advocate for men to have easier access to testosterone replacement therapies, but the messaging from Hegseth and others blends known science on the hormone with broader, and less substantiated, claims. When asked what conditions Hegseth was looking to address with the new policy, the Pentagon referred to Hegseth's remarks in the video that mentioned keeping troops "strong, resilient and capable" and that the rigors of the modern battlefield demand "maximum psychological and mental readiness." Over the past several years, special operations troops -- and specifically Navy SEALs -- have come under scrutiny for their use of testosterone and similar substances to enhance performance. The death of a SEAL recruit during training in 2022 led to a discovery of substances in his possession, including testosterone, and revealed far more rampant drug use among the elite program than was previously acknowledged. A year after the recruit's death, the Navy said it would begin a drug-testing program to screen for "any hormonal substance, chemically or pharmacologically related to testosterone, that promotes muscle growth." Hegseth said his new initiative is "not about artificial enhancement." The Pentagon did not respond to questions about what research or academic studies underpinned the move. It also didn't say if female troops would be able to be evaluated for estrogen-based therapy as they entered perimenopause.
Again, what would we do without experts? In other health news: There's a trend of AWFULs getting extra covid boosters they don't need just to own the CHUDs. Oh, and cause a miscarriage, too. But I don't think these women are likely to be pregnant.
Testosterone levels in men decline naturally with age and have long been linked to issues like erectile dysfunction, low libido, mood changes and weight gain. But experts have debated for years how to diagnose those problems and whether they should be treated by replacing the hormone. Hegseth's announcement comes as Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and other Trump administration officials are moving to make it easier for doctors to prescribe testosterone. Last month, the Food and Drug Administration proposed easing prescribing limits on testosterone gels, pills, patches and injections. ... But many influencers and proponents of Kennedy's "Make America Healthy Again" movement tout testosterone as a way to look younger, build muscle and stay mentally sharp -- although those uses aren't accepted by most medical experts.

It's called Japanese walking, and it's popping up everywhere from group chats to doctors' offices this summer. The idea started with exercise scientists in Matsumoto, Japan, who have spent almost two decades studying it, long before anyone filmed themselves doing it for social media. What makes it different from your usual walk is the timing. You speed up, then slow down, then speed up again, switching every few minutes instead of holding one pace the whole time. No gym membership, no equipment, just a sidewalk, a track or a treadmill and a willingness to change gears.I'm going to try this. I used to try to walk really fast as exercise. Sometimes I could walk as fast as 13 minutes for a mile. The problem with that is: It takes a lot of mental effort and concentration. Unless you are literally concentrating in motivating your body to walk much faster than it does naturally all the duration of the walk, you will inevitably just stop walking at that pace. Your body doesn't maintain that pace automatically. You slow down into your normal pace, not because you're tired (though it does take exertion) but just because your brain isn't telling your legs to walk as fast as possible. You always have to keep mentally focused on keeping the pace as fast as possible, and frankly it's a bitch. If you want to just kind of think and daydream while walking, you're out of luck trying to maintain a fast pace. You will be thinking of walking fast and nothing else. But... I do think I could keep that kind of mental focus for three minutes, before relaxing into a more normal gait. And then focus again for three minutes. Et cetera. Keeping focused for 30-40 minutes is hard, but maybe just focusing three minutes at a time is doable. I have no gains to report. Well, I guess maintenance gains. Do you have any gains? Marco Rubio doesn't. And he seems almost proud of that.
Why So Many People Are Skipping Exercise The gap between wanting to exercise and actually doing it is real. Recent data found that 27% of American adults report zero days of exercise in a typical week, and people who work out nearly every day report noticeably lower daily stress. That pattern shows up most clearly among women, though it's not limited to them.
The method comes from exercise scientists at Shinshu University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan. It's simple. Walk briskly for three minutes, then slow down for three minutes, and repeat for about 30 minutes total. A five-month study followed 679 middle-aged and older adults and found their peak aerobic capacity climbed by 14%, while a score measuring several disease risk factors improved by 17%. The gains leveled off once fast-walking time passed about 50 minutes a week, so more isn't necessarily better. Steady, one-speed walking over the same stretch of time didn't come close to the same results. Why Doctors Are on Board Doctors interviewed in widely read coverage this year say the pace switching pushes your heart harder than an easy stroll, without beating up your joints the way running can. The faster bursts may also keep your body burning a few extra calories after you've stopped walking, an effect linked to interval-style workouts in general. There's a blood sugar upside, too. Muscles working harder during the fast stretches soak up more glucose, which doctors say could matter most for older adults keeping an eye on their blood sugar.

THEN, in May 2021, the "Vaccine" was leveraged on the Vietnam population and the number of COVID "related" medial issues skyrocketed. This is odd for a number of reasons. The first being that Vietnam has become a secondary industrial complex of Chinese goods, so there would have been constant contact with incoming Chinese citizens, and yet the pandemic didn't effect them while this was occurring. The fact that the effects only hit them when the "Vaccine" was mandated seems like a pretty big coincidence. I'd be interested in know which "Vaccine"...and I'm going to assume it was Chinese in origin.

Not surprisingly, when the wheels starting to come off, he tried to kill himself. And failed.
These days, he's still doing the Arday thing. Last time I checked about five years back, his LinkedIn page had him listed as having been president of about 27 different companies. I checked again just last week and he has a new set of accomplishments.
It'll be interesting to check again in another five years.

Insurance companies have an incentive to cover vaccines: they’re very cheap and very cost effective. They’re very likely to keep covering vaccines and following the AAP instead of CDC recommendations
Petty fucks using parental anxiety to manipulate their electoral base in a midterm election year is a new fucking low. Scumbags.
In the absence of rigorous, solid data/research that says otherwise, I’ll continue to offer vaccines on the scientifically studied schedules to my patients.
Obviously, this is really fucking stupid. But what would I know, I am just a lowly board certified pediatrician
When they split the MMR vaccines but kids still develop autism, what will they blame then?
Great. Getting my ADHD daughter to hold still for one shot wasn’t enough torture now we have to put her through this 3 times????

Interesting. I knew a guy like Arday about 10-12 years back. The pathology was pretty much identical.
Not surprisingly, when the wheels starting to come off, he tried to kill himself. And failed.
These days, he's still doing the Arday thing. Last time I checked about five years back, his LinkedIn page had him listed as having been president of about 27 different companies. I checked again just last week and he has a new set of accomplishments.
It'll be interesting to check again in another five years.

I think $$$ is one of the main reasons, but also this was them trying to cover their asses. They knew this was a lab leak of something they were funding and otherwise up their eyeballs in. If the public found out, they would be screwed they feared. So they panicked and threw out the playbook.
It's sort of like a kid who tears something up, damages something, and then tries to fix it himself so his parents won't find out and ends up making it far worse.

He said he is breaking up some of the shots so there are fewer per visit, and work TBD on the MMR, so that's something, but not a lot.
The flu vaccine, for example, needs to go completely. It should not be legal, let alone SCDM.
And I could not find out if the vaccines lose their legal protections and funding when in this SCDM category. My guess is that it is unchanged.

Testosterone for our soldiers is a bad idea.
There are other hormones and body functions that contribute to physical strength and endurance. Military should work on training up and culling out. There are plenty of natural men to do the job.

"A vaccine dose contains many ingredients (such as stabilizers, adjuvants, residual inactivating ingredients, residual cell culture materials, residual antibiotics and preservatives) very little of which is the active ingredient, the immunogen. A single dose may have merely nanograms of virus particles."
It's all the other stuff -- which make up 99.9% of the injection -- which can cause adverse health effects.
But what IS the other stuff? That's where things get murky and controversial. For example, throughout the Covid era, most vaccines contained Thiomersal -- which is toxic -- on purpose. The reason fpr these intentially toxic imngredient is to cause inflammation and distress at the injection site, so the white blood cells rush there to fix it, encounter the immunogen instead, and create and immune response.
That;s just one example. Each vaccine has all sorts of creepy mystery ingredients.

My 31 year old son, former military, was just diagnosed with it. He's tall, strong and you wouldn't know anything was amiss to look at him, but the blood test is pretty straightforward and determinative. His doctor, also former military, says it's very common because stress lowers testosterone, and who is under more long term stress than the military? The treatment is straightforward too and he says he already feels better and more himself.

Wrong, this is primarily directed toward those that have low T rather than every soldier. Low T is a very treatable condition. Same with estrogen replacement for women after menopause.

I think it is wise to not give tiny newborns so many injections at the same time. I also was out of the newborn nursery before injecting them with their first Hep B shot. Absurd if the baby is not exposed by the mother. He/she is not going to go have unprotected sex or IV drug use.

He ended up doing 4 years prison time for financial fraud -- he tricked people into giving him control to invest their money, then invested it in different things than he claimed he was going to invest it in, and then lost it all -- over and over. He did this to dozens of people he knew personally, and strangers, ruing many lives. He's lucky he was killed by one of them.
Got convicted of major fraud, went to prison, got out after four years, and...wait for it...went right back to doing the exact same fraud. Absolutely can not control himself.
I lost track of him after that. I think he went back to his home country to avoid more prison time.

A surge right now should be expected. It's too hot to go outside in a great portion of the country. People being out of the sun is a major contributor to all those flu-like infections.
Researchers were just starting to get good info on vitamin D's effect in suppressing viral infections in mid-2020 right before TPTB pulled the plug on anything that didn't support lockdowns and the narrative.

It's twoo, it's twoo!
Mutated COVID-19 variant could be behind surge in SF virus levels, and experts warn a surge could be coming with the start of the school year...Chin-Hong said a newly formulated COVID-19 shot will be released this fall, but older adults or those who are at high risk of severe disease can get a booster shot earlier if they are concerned about rising cases.
(Ireland) Doc here. COVID peaked strongly the last 2 summers. Every chance it will do so again. Those last 2 years, while COVID was rampant, there was no flu or RSV around so if you had symptoms it was almost certainly COVID regardless of the test results.
DC: Pharmacy technician here - there is a summer covid surge going on, and also some sort of awful cough/throat thing with no fever that tests negative for everything. My sickest patient got covid from their kid that was at summer camp where it's been going around...and so it begins lol
I read wastewater surveillance was showing the beginning of a covid summer wave - seen primarily on the west coast.
I was fully remote until last month. Pray for me!

-- Quotes Arday claimed his mother said were actually cribbed from the dialog spoken by Forrest Gump's mother character in the movie.
-- Arday actually confesses to all this in the book, saying he saw Forrest Gump as a child, was deeply affected by it, and memorized the whole movie, and then modeled his life after it. Problem is, his ""Forrest Gump" life story was a fictional as the "actual" Forest Gump.

According to Scott Pinsker, who writes on PJ Media from a PR pro's perspective, the precise timing of recent hits implies that Mike Rogers's campaign chose to hold material for after Abdulrahman clinched the nomination, and the steady tempo indicates that he is still saving some much more damaging releases for September and October. It's a dangerous strategy; in cases where a *literal* flaming bag of shit (like what Principal Skinner was pranked with) with a (D) by its name could win, instead of beating him, you might just get a worse person in office.

Joking aside, one of the ways to build stamina in running is interval training, which this Japanese walking thing sounds like. I mean whatever works, if you get out there, and you are moving, getting your heart rate up, maybe breaking a little sweat, it’s good. Just make sure you add in some sort of resistance/ weight training, and this can be your own body weight, in the form of push ups, varied, planks, etc etc.

Who cares, you didn't do anything illegal, you ain't going to jail, you're just a shitbird who took advantage of other shitbirds.
But this dude -believed-. He really thought he was the bee's knees, and hips and ankles too. So did everyone else around them. It's not even really a scam at this point, it's actual mass pathology. Most of these people are actually, truly, nucking futs.

That is great and probably better than actually running, which isn’t super on your knees. And I know I run with my kid, she likes it, I hate it. But I do it. Make sure you have really good shoes, no matter what, though.

I've been a runner for nearly, well, let's just say some decades. I gave up the true running some years ago when my knees gave me some trouble. Once I move, I'll find a gym with an elliptical machine; I was good at that.
There's a walking trail established within a mini-park behind what used to be a school, about half a mile away from my front door. I walk/trot there, then do some laps (6 to the mile), and most of the remaining half mile home, and walk the rest of the way to cool down.

Enough that there are people here that tell you differently which would be empirical evidence you are wrong. You choose which to believe--your own null theory of no effect or their experience.
When you have your own theory--null theory, that too is subject to empirical testing but most people that don't do modeling never do it to their own pet theories of how the world works.
Occam's razor of people whose lives have literally changed because of it versus your own null theory tends to displace the no effect until you do your own empirical testing. Yours would have to include that they were deluisional, some other unproven effect did it, etc. And would in turn require its own empirical evidence supporting or denying the null hypothesis you just formulated.

It's almost like a hierarchical thing.

And they think it's working, because they're all in positions of power because bastards like their predecessors put them there. So, obviously, being reflexively racist and reflexively anti-truth and anti-civilization is clearly the correct path. I mean, look how well it's working!

Daily Wire to Release Film About ISIS Taking Over an American College Campus; Islamist Propagandists Say Criticism of ISIS is Islamophobic; Tuq'r Qarlson Says That Ben Shapiro Is a Sleeper Agent Created by Israel
The movie is a sequel to Run Hide Fight, itself about (I think) students evading and then confronting a school shooter. This one's called Run Hide Fight: Infidels.
It stars Jonathan Majors, who was a much-promoted actor a few years ago before he was accused of physical abuse of a girlfriend. (Though the charges are sketchy and I don't know if they're true or not.) Aiding in his cancellation was his low reputation among his fellow actors, who thought he was an egotistical asshole and would not defend him.So Jonathan Majors is taking the same path that Armie Hammer just did: cancelled actor agrees to star in a movie that is Made of Weapons-Grade Cancellation Atoms as part of a would-be comeback. Eh, I'm interested.
Mehdi Hasan
@mehdirhasan Aug 6 Difficult to come up with a more bigoted, Islamophobic, & cliched trailer than this one. Also, Hollywood has 'refused' to tell the story of 'radical Islam'? Is Shapiro insane or just gaslighting? Muslims have been the main villains in Hollywood for decades, even predating 9/11!
No they haven't been. Even in the very rare cases that Hollywood makes an Islamic terrorist a villain, he's only a secondary villain, because it turns out he's been hired by the CIA, or the Military-Industrial Complex. The real villain is always white and either explicitly Christian or "Christian-coded," as the leftwing drones say. The last Islamic villain was, what, the terrorist from True Lies, right? And that's from like 1993! Mehdi Hassan had previously defended poor misunderstood Islamic rape-gang colonizers, when they were so viciously attacked by Citizen Vigilante.

@joelmowbray Per Tucker Carlson, @benshapiro was "created" by Israel. "They" got him "into Harvard Law School" & made @realDailyWire
successful by getting the company a "deal with Facebook that no one got." Tucker added that Shapiro's views are actually "the opinions of the people who prop up Ben Shapiro, who created Ben Shapiro. This is what they think." While Tucker mostly avoided naming "they" -- initially calling Shapiro an "employee... of larger interests" -- he eventually let the mask slip. At 2:35 of this clip, Tucker refers to "Ben Shapiro's employer's foreign policy." While it's possible that Tucker is being even more sinister -- that he means "Global Jewry" -- the most likely (and only other reasonable) possibility for the "they" is the State of Israel. ("Neocons" in America wouldn't make sense, because they often can't get their own kids into Harvard Law, let alone launch successful businesses.) Regardless, it is a sign of just how deep Tucker has plunged into the abyss that he believes such an insane theory that Israel (or Global Jewry) "created" Ben Shapiro and manufactured his every success. The more troubling thing, though, is that Tucker is willing to say it out loud. But worst of all is that he's not yet hit bottom. Which means it will only get darker and more bizarre from here.

JustinWhen Ben Shapiro made the traditional conservative argument that people complain too much about being poor despite the fact that people have never been richer -- I see some on the right are now railing against this argument, but it is, in fact, standard conservative boilerplate; you can't claim it's some exotic, Jewish-flavored argument -- Tuq'r Qarlson accused him of pushing people to "accept their goyslop" and be happy about it. "Goyslop" is an antisemitic term, meaning "slop fed to the goys (non-Jews)," and apparently is part of a Nazi conspiracy theory that Jews are pushing fast food on Christians to make them weak and compliant.
@JustinUSA 22h Ben Shapiro claps back at Tucker Carlson's ridiculous accusations and the damage he's causing by espousing anti-capitalist policies. The same ones who scream for socialism or accuse Ben of feeding them "goyslop" are the ones living in mansions and living the elitist life with people like Andrew Tate and Hunter Biden. Tucker Carlson, Zohran Mamdani, and Hasan Piker don't know what struggle is. They grew up in privilege and live the opposite of the lives they claim to favor. Free markets, equal justice, and free minds are what make America great. The Marxism, feudalism, and Islamism these fraudsters are pushing are un-American ideas that have no place in this country.

He had a long history before that of criminal and violent behavior.
Dude is a violent lunatic that everyone in his own industry hated. How he ever made it big is beyond me.

The right doesn’t care about domestic violence. The left doesn’t let that shit go while the right pre forgives if you’re Christian.
Imagine the uproar if Muslims were making atrocity propaganda, with calls for violence against jews...
I haven’t watched the full trailer yet, but it isn’t surprising that he turned out to be a Zionist/islamphobe. Jonathan Majors gives off bad vibes.

We are not used to keeping them inside in the summer. I need to now stock my warehouse with Amazon craft stuff I usually have for winter and snow. They expect entertainment. I expect them to entertain themselves and am often wrong.
I haven't even started day drinking yet and the margins are wide but vision is still clear.
I don't have words to express (well, I do but won't print them) of how much I despise Taqiyya Tuq'r Qarlson (perfection, Ace!) and the obvious, not sneaking, invasion of our country by radical islam.

The Hebrew Homonculous Shapiro mentioned that, but I think he said the bad guys in the movie were Russians. I dunno, maybe Nazis hired and supplied by Russians. Never saw it.

I asked Duck's AI about the last radical muslim villain in an action movie and it suggested 2014's American sniper which is a war movie (and a true story). If we ignore war movies you have to go back to 1998's The Siege where arguably the Muslims still aren't really the villains.

We may have been robbed of Black Superman, but I hope this happens.
As trans onscreen representation takes a hit in Hollywood, Lilly Wachowski is attempting to make a film with an all-transgender cast… if only the industry will let her.
The Matrix co-auteur recently explained that despite some excitement over the script, financiers “really don’t want to make” her dystopian political thriller The Hunted, which is co-written with partner Mickey Ray Mahoney and budgeted at $10 million, due to the film’s “wall-to-wall trans cast.”
“People like it, but they really don’t want to make it because it’s wall-to-wall trans cast,” said Wachowski on KCRW’s The Business podcast. “I have to get creative and figure out different ways that I can get this in front of people.”

Hollyweird has accounting that makes Enron look legit. And it is a prime way to launder money and affect US sensibilities so of course Faux news had Prince Talal give Murdoch and Co key financing backing, and of course that wouldn't affect 20th Century Fox or Fox channels. Multiply this by the the other sordid media including social media and infotainment studios, etc. and you get that our own media hates America and Americans and hates Christians. Increasingly hates freedom too.

They had a mention in the Snyder Superman movie that all the Kryptonian colonies were destroyed by something (probably Brainiac)
You could have made that into a story, and hell, make it a horror movie, where even advanced, superpowered Kryptonians get destroyed with however diverse a cast you want since I assume like Earthlings there are black and asian Kryptonians (yes its kind of stupid but works in comic book movies) and then have that as a setup for another Synderverse movie with Superman and friends...only this time get a Supergirl that doesn't have fetal alcohol syndrome

Best pre-Matrix plot twist? 1945's "Dead of Night." You've got to watch it from the very first frame to the very last frame to get the full effect. If you aren't expecting it, it's kind of emotionally devastating. Way ahead of its time in terms of "everything you thought was real isn't what you thought it was."

There's no way for me to even hint at what the twist is without giving it away. I recommend not reading about the film before watching it.
What Dead of Night is famous for is being the first "anthology"-style horror film, in which six separate Twilight-Zone-style tales are told in a row, connected by an overarching meta-story. Almost all six of the mini-movies within the movie were very influential and were later made into standalone movies (or legendary TV episodes) of their own. The twist does not really involve any of the famous stories-within-the-story, even though they take up 95% of the screen time, but instead is about the framing meta-story, which you aren't really paying attention to until....

But ... since the idea was that a fourth dimension in that system had to be at 90 degree angles to all the others -- just as xyz are all 90 degrees to each other -- the only way to do it was that T constantly flipped and twisted and mutated.
So it was almost impossible to "track" T such that it could be scrolled back and forth on. It wasn't until we developed ultra-computers and solved irrational numbers that we could find T and track it accurately enough to use.

Incarceration separates people from their jobs, support services, & loved ones. It perpetuates cycles of poverty & crime.

Former Biden press secretary Jen Psaki scathingly attacked her Trump counterpart Karoline Leavitt on Thursday, claiming she faced hardly any tough questions in the briefing room and had no interest in engaging in good faith discussions.
“The relationship between the press and the White House is supposed to be adversarial by design,” Psaki said on MS NOW, formerly MSNBC, where she was hired after her performance on then-President Biden’s behalf from 2021 to 2022. “I mean, the press in the room are supposed to push for more access, for more information. And there are times when it’s absolutely appropriate for the press secretary to push back. But Karoline Leavitt didn’t want to engage in good faith with those reporters and their tough questions.
“And so, instead, she did everything she could to reshape that briefing room into her own personal safe space where she rarely had to answer a tough question, hardly ever. I mean, she only briefed once or twice a week, max.”

But we all know that Jews should have to get genetic testing to prove any claim to Israel and that all the scientific studies showing close relationship between Jewish populations are lies perpetrated by hummus-eaters in Tel Aviv!!!

FBI: We Arrested 4,000 Nasty Criminals In the Last Two Months
Kash Patel said he would reorient the FBI away from the Democrat/Wray model of unending election interference on behalf of the communists towards arresting criminals.
These arrests are proof his word is good.ICE is being harassed by violent antifa retards who provoke them and attempt to ram them with vehicles. And then, when ICE responds with appropriate deadly force, they weaponize ICE agents' understandable desire to protect their own lives. ICE is considering arming agents with shock gauntlets to give them a less-lethal response to antifa terrorists. Look, I'm with you -- I like the lethal responses better.
The FBI said Wednesday that Operation Summer Heat, now in its second year, has resulted in over 4,000 arrests and 1,500 indictments in just the past two months. "Week after week, FBI teams across the country remain committed to confronting the most egregious threats," the bureau said on X. "All the efforts coming from our agents, intelligence analysts, and support staff directly support our mission to be a trusted partner to the nation. "We all joined the bureau with the same dedication in mind," it continued. "Operations like Summer Heat demonstrate that commitment every day." The bureau said its teams arrested three members of the Mexican mafia last week who were convicted of murder in 2023, and a member of the Houston street gang Rich Kings. ... The update comes after the bureau announced Tuesday that it has arrested over 6,600 people in Washington, D.C., over the past year as part of its Safe and Beautiful initiative.
That's dumb.
ICE agents may soon have gloves that can deliver electric shocks to combative individuals To deliver the painful electric shock, they must be applied directly to someone's skin, which helps the officer gain compliance within seconds, according to the manufacturer. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers may soon wear gloves that deliver electric shocks to combative individuals. The agency plans to spend up to $20 million to purchase the "conducive distraction and de-escalation devices," according to the Associated Press, citing a Department of Homeland Security notice. The devices are manufactured by Compliant Technologies LLC of Lexington, Kentucky. The company calls them G.L.O.V.E., which stands for Generated Low Output Voltage Emitter. Some jails and law enforcement agencies are already using the devices.
The company said the devices function as normal gloves until activated, which enables them to deliver a painful electric shock. They must be applied directly to someone's skin, which helps the officer gain compliance within seconds, according to the manufacturer.But shock gauntlets might make for good videos. Steve Inman could get some mileage out of Blitz Mitts. The media continues showing that they are pro-crime, pro-terrorist traitors.
North Carolina pastor taken by ICE had a stroke in detention, family saysThe stroke happened two weeks later? Well, obviously ICE caused it. No 55-year-old men living stressful lives of constant criminality ever suffer stroke, except due to the White Supremacy Sorcery of ICE. My only comfort is that given that this career criminal is 55 years old, at least they won't run pictures of him from his high school graduation to garner sympathy and show us what great promise this 55-year-old career criminal had. Oh wait, my bad, that's exactly what they're doing:
Authorities took Gabriel Johnson, 55, to the hospital after he had "stroke-like symptoms," leaving his family fearful for his well-being. By Daniella Silva A little more than two weeks after her father was arrested by ICE, Gabri Johnson received the call she had been dreading: Her father, a pastor in North Carolina, was in the hospital in Texas after having a stroke, she said. Since then, ICE has kept their family in the dark about his medical care and her father's condition, Johnson said.

ICE agents may soon have gloves that can deliver electric shocks to combative individuals
To deliver the painful electric shock, they must be applied directly to someone's skin, which helps the officer gain compliance within seconds, according to the manufacturer.

So ridiculous. I'm 49 and high school feels like multiple lifetimes ago. I keep up with a couple of friends from that time, but they were part of my life after high school. I don't care about reunions. I don't care about their football team.
Other lifetimes since then:
College
My time with two serious girlfriends
Early work career
Mid work career
Marriage
Fatherhood
All of these run together in some ways, but they are all somewhat distinct in their own ways. I changed during those times in significant ways.

Well, back you your day, college was for above-average students. Even before the "demographic cliff," the universalization of college had brought the average IQ of matriculating freshmen down to the national average IQ. Then, adding Didn't Earn It on top of that forced Ivy League schools to add pre-makeup math to cover the 4th-grade-level material that they would need to understand the makeup math that they would need as a foundation sufficient to pass a basic math class that meets graduation requirements.
Now the long-predicted demographic cliff has finally hit, and even public universities (such as Portland State) are closing entire programs (an implicit no-confidence vote on state finances). So if you thought admission standards had nowhere left to fall, you were wrong.

Nothing, but they have their own use case.
A taser typically is a gun-shaped object that you hold in your hand. You can't easily grab with two hands when you're holding it. Some morons even mistake their actual gun for their taser and shoot people they intend to tase.
The glove is useful because you have both hands free to grab a person AND you can tase them on top of that. It's not going to be mistaken for a gun. A subject has to work a lot harder to take it from you and use it against you.

I remember a story about a cop called to a domestic disturbance because the mentally ill kid was having a melt down and mom couldn't control him.
Well the kid didn't calm down at the sight of the cop and even when the cop wrestled him down kept fighting.
So the cop reached for his taser and....well didn't grab the taser. Killed the kid with his gun.
Sad sad story through and through.

Universities now rely on federal student loan and grant money income to make it. Trump is starting to cut off that airway by refusing to make loans for majors that cannot produce an income to service the debt. Put in hard limits on grad school funding as well that is going to hit the perpetual student population hard if they don't go into coursework that produces a job.
The student visas now require foreigners to timely complete their degrees--no more lounging around campus for decades.

She's admitted to doing it, the police have fingered her, and she had a search history on how to kill people.
And somehow the left is rally around her...Of course. of course.
Also apparently she was on ALL the meds modern psychology tries to get people on. Worked great obviously.

ANYONE can claim to be a pastor at some of the black churches in the South. Unless things have changed.
In my childhood our yardman, Willis, claimed to be a "preacher." We have no idea as my brother and I also thought he was "The Bag Man" due to him dragging burlap bags everywhere, full of cans and bottles as the nation's first recycler.
We never knew what on earth he did in our grandmother's storage room off the garage, but he told us to never go in there due to The Bag Man. We didn't test it. The maids hated him and called him the n word. We learned a lot of words from them.

Hospitals Defraud the Federal Government, Disguising Costs of "Gender Affirming Care" as Something Else, Claiming It's For Something Else; Hospitals Referred to DOJ for Prosecution
"They should go to prison," JD Vance writes.
This may shock you, but Planned Parenthood may be at the heart of the fraudulent billing. Which is a nice way to say "theft."Related: A fraud-mill in NY collected $32 million in sham Medicaid payments and just happened to be donating to NY governess Kathy Hochul while they did so.
A day after the Trump administration ended federal funding of "sex-rejecting procedures on children," otherwise known as gender affirming care, Vice President J.D. Vance and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. referred hospitals and gender clinics identified in a new HHS billing fraud report for prosecution and investigation. Vance's letter to Attorney General Todd Blanche asks the Justice Department to investigate whether flagged providers violated the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, False Claims Act and federal fraud and conspiracy laws by "intentionally" miscoding treatment to "secure insurance coverage for gender-transitioning interventions that insurance would not otherwise cover." If so, "they should go to prison." "More than just pushing these procedures on kids, hospitals and providers may have been defrauding Medicaid and private insurers by using misleading or fraudulent billing codes to get insurance to cover the costs," Vance said in an X thread on the report and criminal referral. ... The secretary's letter identifies four fishy cohorts: claims for puberty blockers with endocrine disorder diagnosis on the same claim with "no gender diagnosis" and "no precocious puberty" diagnosis, ages 9-17; claims for puberty blockers with precocious puberty diagnosis, 13-17; claims for "primary gender dysphoria" diagnosis with a cross-sex hormone prescription "written the same day" in a state where that's prohibited for minors, 17 and younger; and affiliates to whom prescribers billed at least 95% of their claims in a prescription year and are registered at one of their addresses, all of them Planned Parenthood clinics.
Kathy Hochul received $55,000 in campaign contributions from social adult daycare centers (SADCs) in fraud-plagued Flushing, Queens, records show. Almost half of those donations can be linked to two men: local powerbroker Baoli Zhang, and Jiemin Shang -- who own two of Flushing's biggest daycare businesses, both of which were empty of patients when visited by The Post last week. Zhang, 69, personally donated $10,000, as well as another $5,000 through his Bao Kang Adult Day Care, financial disclosures show. Zhang's various businesses have claimed at least $32 million from Medicaid since 2018, on behalf of tens of thousands of patients. Shang runs Livingwell Day Care, which donated $5,000 to Hochul in 2022, the same year it billed $5.8M to Medicaid. Another $5,000 came from Finest Adult Day Care, which Shang also runs. "In 2021, [social adult daycare centers] were dying due to COVID. Someone threw them a lifeline and must have said something like, 'Take care of me, I'll take care of you.' They're making more money than ever now," an industry source claimed to The Post. Federal figures back this up. Business has exploded at Livingwell, which billed $114,000 in 2018, a number that increased to $8.05 million in 2024. Bao Kang went from claiming $1.5M in 2018 to $7.22M by 2024. Monthly revenue for daycares across Flushing overall has nearly doubled compared to pre-pandemic numbers. Only nine of the city's nearly 400 SADCs made contributions over $5,000 to Hochul's first gubernatorial campaign in 2022. Those same nine businesses accounted for billing Medicaid for an eyepopping $49 million in 2022, The Post's investigation found.

The inflation is occurring because we are borrowing made up money by the Federal Reserve to cover the massive deficits. Interest is now larger than the current Medicaid and Defense budgets at 1.1 trillion. This is how soft defaults begin. Devaluation of the money but the bankrupt governments trying to buy enough support to lurch further into bankruptcy for a time.
So you get subsidies that are not sustainable at the same time your interest payments start to eat up the rest of your ability to spend. So the pressure goes further to turn those printers onto max.
It is going to take leaders in the West to cross the Rubicon which in turn will provoke some horrendous backlash. Whether they are from the left or from the right remains to be seen. But this is not sustainable even now in Japan--they can't save the yen from crashing even with help.

Kathy Hochul received $55,000 in campaign contributions from social adult daycare centers (SADCs) in fraud-plagued Flushing, Queens, records show.
Almost half of those donations can be linked to two men: local powerbroker Baoli Zhang, and Jiemin Shang -- who own two of Flushing's biggest daycare businesses, both of which were empty of patients when visited by The Post last week.

I knew I was a woman since I was 4 years old and I can't even begin to explain all the damage society and my family did to me to push me into being a male. I don't want other trans children to go through the hell I had to go through trying to fit into society's mold.

Prosecutions are virtually meaningless. The dollar amounts involved make this analogous to the drug trade: jail or kill as many as you want, the stakes are worth the stretch, especially to groups that don't view fraud as inherently wrong as a matter of their home culture, so others will replace them. The only solution is radically shrinking the size of federal and state governments. They are fraud magnets.

PDF of filing to Dismiss: https://tinyurl.com/2s36wjrd
Dismissal is required for several reasons. First, Plaintiffs fail to allege a single deceptive statement by WPATH, much less a statement to consumers. The “core deceptive statements” the Complaint purports to identify from SOC-8 are non-actionable opinions about subjects on which there is “medical and scientific uncertainty.” United States v. Skrmetti, 605 U.S. 495, 524 (2025).
The Fifth Circuit has held that “merely publishing a medical opinion—even a hotly debated one— in a peer-reviewed journal cannot give rise to a misrepresentation claim.” Torrey v. Infectious Diseases Soc’y of Am., 86 F.4th 701, 704 (5th Cir. 2023). All statements Plaintiffs identify have extensive citations to peer-reviewed scientific studies that Plaintiffs simply ignore. Plaintiffs further ignore that WPATH expresses these scientific opinions not to consumers, but to the professionals best able to evaluate them: doctors.

I had a colleague of mine from way back reach out to me about a job at his company. I said yeah looks interesting I’ll have a conversation. So he submitted me to his company’s Workday. A few days later a recruiter from the company asked me to be a connection on LinkedIn. Then nothing. I checked on workday and my application was changed to no longer under consideration.
So I got back to my guy there and asked what’s up? Turned out the HR woman got me confused with someone else. She wanted to interview me and reject him but did an oopsie and cancelled my application. She eventually did get back in touch.
This is how fucked up hiring is these days. An endless series of workday black holes and incompetent HR people with AI slop thrown in for good measure.

You are thinking in view of traditional western justice. Under the nature of necessity for a new regime, there will be head chopping and lopping simply to reestablish order and the courts will comply as they want to keep their heads as well.
The West is heading for a discontinuity because those in the West that should know better from history are pushing a societal collapse for some reasons--perhaps thinking they will rule over the ruins, perhaps some sort of euthanizing the 90 percent of the rest of society, to bring about the revolution of the proletariat, who knows. But the rules of the new game are going to be harsh and have to be--so the wreckers and looters will get the noose or bullet as the case may be to bolster the new regime. Same reason that the Chicoms did mass public executions of druggies and their drug lords in public stadiums. The outrages encourage the rest to avoid such a fate.
I had a Chinese defense lawyer in one of my classes, he mentioned he met clients the morning of the trial, the presumption was guilt, and his client would be executed by evening. That is what is coming when the finances collapse.

I find the "affordability crisis" conversation fascinating. The left wants the discussion to begin and end with Trump. The right seems to be a bit fragmented.
Some try to argue there is no crisis and you just need to get good at cooking at home or cut back on frivolous purchases. Some try to argue it's mostly inflation due to Covid spending and other waste. Some point to more systemic issues like fraud, illegals, massive government burdens, etc.
I tend to agree with the last group that it's all of the above. But I sure do wish we could fix this crap. Food is damn expensive. Housing is damn expensive. Gas in my state is damn expensive.

And the way to do that is to deport the illegals at the low end and end the outsourcing and hiring H1Bs, OPTS, and other low cost labor from abroad.
That would give the US a narrow path to avoid the downfall by reducing inflationary pressures on housing and goods like food in the US. Corporate America though will hate it because it means destroying the idea of massive profit growth via inflation from unsustainable growth in demand.

This is the reality of the tech revolution - big cities have become borderline liabilities in an economic sense. This is not unheard of as the British discovered in the American Revolution.
But cities can now also become net negative economic income centers, meaning there are all the other problems with cities as a locus of power getting isolated, but they are not nearly as strong economically as they used to be. The left is weaker than they think.

And the way to do that is to deport the illegals at the low end and end the outsourcing and hiring H1Bs, OPTS, and other low cost labor from abroad.
That would give the US a narrow path to avoid the downfall by reducing inflationary pressures on housing and goods like food in the US. Corporate America though will hate it because it means destroying the idea of massive profit growth via inflation from unsustainable growth in demand.
A return to the boring 50's and 60's economy is not what the financial whiz kids want .

The interesting needle to thread is there will be wage inflation as the labor pool shrinks, which will result in more money chasing goods. Recalibrating from where we have been will come with some pretty big bumps.

If you are bored, you can look up the Federal Sentencing guidelines for the recommended sentence. For a judge to go above or below that 'average' sentence, they have to formally depart by an opinion from that guideline sentence either upwards or downwards and give specific allowable reasons why they departed. Both the prosecutors and the defense then are allowed to appeal the sentence. The feds will also do a full workup for sentencing with the Probation Service noting all mitigating and aggravating circumstances plus prior criminal history for the judge in a formal sentencing report. Normally, not always, that sentencing report nuggets are used if the judge wants to depart from the recommended sentencing range.

The 620 range is purely hypothetical and even then is way optimistic. Maybe 400-450 miles if not driven hard. Which defeats the purpose.
I instruct at a race course and every once in a while some dude will bring one of those 1,000+ hp super EVs. At full track speed, it will not last more than maybe 30 miles. Not joking. You can literally see the "charge" gauge going down in real time.

Yes and no, by reducing the size of the consumers in absolute terms, it lessens internal pressure on goods like rentals, houses, food, at the same time raising labor prices. What you will probably see is a drastic reduction in profits for companies as labor costs are one of the largest components of production costs for goods. That leaves companies either doing without, mechanizing, or paying the piper. Tariffs remove the obvious response which is off shoring and if the misused H1Bs etc. become no longer competitive or legal to hire, then you end up with increased labor costs and decreased demand for your products.
Home market is a microcosm---reducing demand for high end houses in Texas by H1B departures, leads to a glut of houses, leads to lesser home prices but a drastic loss in developer profits while eliminating illegals from their construction crews means much higher labor costs. So the developer's wallet get squeezed in both directions.
That will be reflected in the stock and lending markets as the system shocks continue.

Lotsa reasons and the lower-end beef is still pretty reasonable. The high end stuff is very expensive, but then it always was.
Beef has exploded in popularity both on the home table and at restaurants. High-end steakhouses are the new rage. All that demand drives up prices.
Steak was once a men thing. Now it's a woman thing too. Go to any high-end steakhouse webpage, and it will almost certainly feature attractive ladies in $2000 dresses and $1500 shoes. Beef made a big push into this demo, and it worked.

Beef Herds in the US are the lowest that it has been for decades. Add in the screwworm problem affecting cross border calving and imports. Takes a lot longer to increase beef production as in years than it does for chickens, turkey, or pig production.
And if you bring in imports to lower the price, you stymie increases in the US herd recovery and become dependent on foreign beef.

Trump stopped Bidenflation and we are back to normal 2-3% levels, but if you want it lower or actual deflation you are going to need DRAMATIC spending cuts on the order of "government does not do social spending outside of SS anymore"
So if you are a young person complaining about affordability you need to not only no longer vote leftwing, not even GOPe, not even MAGA, but elect a majority of the "audit the fed" types.
Yes that means no more tranny virtue signaling, Guatemalan nannies, or feed the world and our bank accounts NGOs. I suspect that much of this demographic would rather have the 3% inflation...

You cannot have a rational discussion with leftists. Instead, it is better to pelt them with rhetoric to make them feel bad and flee and ignore trying to make the dialectic argument whereas the Right will always be wrong because of whatever talking points they parrot from media.
Better off just insulting them and making them feel bad, psychologically it depresses them far more than a dialectical argument which gives them satisfaction, (hubris of course), that they really showed Rightie who was correct.
Nowadays, I find it much more peaceful to avoid discussing politics with leftists--I had to do the dialectical thing for too long as a professor instead of telling them they were idiots for believing such and they needed to step away from their virtual world into reality.

If spending goes up without a companion tax increase you get...inflation.
Yes, you can raise taxes but that is only a short term fix because this will lower overall economic activity.
So really the only lever to stop inflation is reduce spending. Now that doesn't mean that whatever "charity" type cause you believe in has to be defunded. But it does mean it has to stop being funded by the government and instead be funded by YOU.

It isn't going to stop at 3 percent. Some president is going to do the King Henry the 8th and defund the secular religious centers like NGOs and universities because that is where the money has went. 13.2 trillion or so which is roughly one third of our current total debt. So you liquidate those organizations to pay off the debt.

Went to 5 Guys yesterday, and while I was eating my $13 cheeseburger I started doing a little math (I know that's discouraged here...sorry). But the burger had about 1/4 lb of beef. I can get about 1.3 lbs. of beef at the grocery story for under $10. So, I can make 5 burgers for less than they charge for one, AND I'm sure that their cost for hamburger is a bulk discount price, so call it six burgers. That's quite the mark-up profit margin. Now, I'm not retarded, I know they have a significant number of other costs (rolls, toppings, licensing, WC, insurance, rent etc). But, when all is said and done I'll bet their profit margin sits at about 100%.

Federal Court draws jurors from a broader area than the state charges would. Plus, I'll bet that Mangione had done other crimes or had perversions that he did not want revealed in court. The other crimes might have been committed in other jurisdictions like Thailand for example. Or perhaps he took the rap in order not to have fellow conspirators charged as accessories. But the feds obviously had a club ready to use on his ass and multiple charges of other crimes like sex tourism, or charging friendz or loved ones is just that type of club.
You don't just snap and commit murder, there is generally a line of prior, uncharged sometimes, but other crimes committed before the big Murder One.

THE MORNING RANT: Alberta Independence Is a Necessary Bulwark Against Canada’s Capitulation to the Enemies of Western Civilization
Canada is becoming one of America’s most underestimated national security vulnerabilities: a permissive northern platform through which mass migration, organized crime, and hostile foreign influence can reach the United States.In the early 1960s, Canada’s population was 97% European, based on ethnic origin. That declined to just 52% by the 2020s, due to a mass-immigration regime that rejected Canada’s heritage and intentionally sought to alter the cultural makeup of Canada.
Canada embraced state-sponsored multiculturalism. Former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau even described the country as the world’s first “postnational state,” with “no core identity” and “no mainstream.” Canada has combined mass immigration with an increasingly vague idea of national belonging.If Canada is “post-national” as Justin Trudeau boasts, then Alberta is entitled to be a country of its own, since Canada has ceased to be a nation. The two greatest foreign threats to the United States, in my opinion, are: 1) The 21st century Chinese empire, which is trying to expand its influence into the western hemisphere. 2) A global Islamic caliphate, which is really just part of the ongoing 1,400-year war between the Christian West and Islam. Both of these threats are establishing North American toeholds in Canada.
China presents the gravest strategic threat. Beijing does not need to turn Canada into an outright enemy of the United States. It needs only to use Canada as a gateway into the North American system. Canada’s decision to allow Chinese electric vehicles into the country at reduced tariff rates shows the risk. Modern electric vehicles are not simply cars. Their cameras, microphones, sensors, software, and remote-update capabilities can collect enormous quantities of data. That policy could put tens of thousands of Chinese surveillance platforms on American roads, gathering information near military bases, power plants, communications infrastructure, and other sensitive sites.The United States also has a virtually unsecured border with Canada. When Canada was still a 1st-world, pro-western nation, we didn’t have to worry about it. That is no longer the case.
When the United States tightens its southern border while Canada maintains looser entry policies, the northern frontier becomes an escape valve for foreign nationals seeking unlawful entry. The danger extends beyond illegal immigration. Criminal organizations, foreign agents, and potentially terrorist-linked individuals can exploit a border designed around an older assumption of trust.Getting back to the Islamification of Canada, even the prairie provinces are submitting to government-sponsored Islamic indoctrination. Authorities in Saskatchewan have acquiesced to a mosque’s demand to blast Islamic calls to prayer through downtown Regina, so as to “help introduce” Islamic rituals and obedience to the non-Muslims in Regina. “Regina's New Friday Soundtrack: Islamic Calls to Prayer” [Juno News – 6/22/2026]
Canadians living in Regina’s downtown core were subjected to an outdoor Islamic call to prayer broadcast out loud from a mosque for the first time just steps from City Hall. The Regina City Jamia Masjid used rooftop speakers at its McIntyre Street location to project the Adhan at 1 p.m., marking a trial run approved by police and set to run at least through mid-July. Anisur Rahaman of the RCJM broadcast told CTV News it would “help introduce” the mosque to both Muslim and non-Muslim residents from its downtown location.We cannot surrender any more North American ground to the enemies of western civilization. The salvageable parts of Canada must be saved, and it needs to start in Alberta. [buck.throckmorton at protonmail dot com]

Well, what we have now is nothing, and it's too expensive to attempt to wall the whole things. So, if 48 can start the process, the 100 miles can be expanded to 125, 150, 175 in each direction over time.
Of course, you also have the problem of the Great Lakes. There are a ton of limits to what one can do to secure those shores without depriving Americans of the ability use their shoreline property.

I opine only for myself. I don't quite trust Vance. Maybe it's the footsie with Tucker. He's not necessarily done things wrong, and I appreciate his efforts on spearheading coordination to weed out some of the fraud. But DeSantis has by far the most proven track record, and Rubio has been nothing but stellar the past few years.

Sorry bro. I've been in your shoes a number of times and wish I had a good explanation or words of wisdom for you. The whole job seeking thing went to shit some time ago and from what I can see is only getting worse. My only thought is networking, which I personally suck at, but meeting people and making connections seem to go much further than resume, experience, competence, and work ethic. I also hate to tell you this but if you're identifiably middle-aged you are going to be ice skating uphill, the ADEA notwithstanding.

My video tour this morning of a new 2BR/1BA property went so well, I decided to put in an offer on it! If the owner accepts, the inspection will tell me (as it did on the previous house) if the place is as good as it looks. It's a nice little corner house with a shade tree in front, a foyer, a deck the owner will re-stain, a good basement, a 2-car garage, and a little shed that will need some paint work -- but that *appears* to be the only thing that will.

Unfortunately it’s not just one poll. It’s a lot of them. And they all say 25-30% support. I think there was one that showed 35% a few months ago as an outlier.
Brexit polls showed remain winning but it was like 3% lead to remain and leave won by 3%. Polls can be off as we all know.. But we’re taking polls showing 60-30 remain with 10% not sure. Unless something insane happens, that isn’t turning into 51-49 leave.

Five words or less?
server, automation, innovation
(two words to be determined later)
My 'programming knowledge' has been focused on (Windows) server scripting and administration for the last 20 years, so general 'write an app' or 'serverless database' or 'must have experience building and supporting kubernetes clusters' stuff isn't going anywhere fast. Innovation - I prefer to be doing interesting things like building new systems or automating maintenance or writing code.
I have some cloud experience, and I understand a little more than just the basics of firewalls and networking and storage arrays, but when they want '5+ years administering storage arrays and managing routers', I can't claim that. That was the job of two other groups that I knew how to explain my needs to and how to diagnose when they got it wrong.

The only thing I can offer is perhaps doing informational interviewing of people in the field you want to work in. If you are not seeking a job (at least not directly) and simply discussing someone's work, that gets you away from the HR screening apparatus that is designed to keep potential job seekers away from bothering employees. What Color is My Parachute is the one book that has preached this since 1960's and it is successful and stayed in print for so long because it is a useful technique.
Libraries or Ebay have this book and I advise reading it for the nuances of doing this. Worked for a number of my students fwiw.

Unless you got a friend that's going to set you up, you need to brush up on Python, JavaScript, C#, Java, and Lua.
The fastest way in would be to try to get a junior web-dev, if you want to continue the tech route.
There are a lot of job postings for programmers that can program UI's and control systems for AV integration.
Take a look at every crash course video on YouTube.
If your current skillset is just general bash or powershell scripting, that's going to be tough.

Okay, so listen. If you see a role that says this and you have 60% of what they want, throw your hat in the ring and create a nexis between what you do know and how you can close the gap. You are a salesman in your interview and you are selling you. The very best you that exists. The other thing is if you are seeing roles pop up that consistently require this skill set, go find some free class on it, even if you know more than the instructor. 1. It opens networking and 2. In your interview, you are going to say “I have recognized this trend as a needed skill. I wanted to close the gap in my tool kit, so I have taken course z, etc etc.” shows recognition of skill gap, recognition of emerging trends and initiative to resolve.

We had a muslim soldier in our unit in 2006 that was a riot and was and damn good soldier.
That said, he was pretty much marinated in the good 'ol USA, and he loved him some bacon.
Basically, he was as much muslim as Biden and Pelosi are Catholics.
The ones coming here to get their jihad on, and spitting out little jihadists are the ones I'm concerned with.
Sadly, since the muslim community are unable/unwilling to police up their own, they too will get caught in the crossfire if things continue to escalate.

A lot of Muslims are decent people and buy into the idea that the Koran is not about kill the Jews and Christians and jump up and down on their bones.
The problem is that the tame Muslims are the most likely to vote for the liberal spectrum of candidates. But your guy sounds good.

Headhunters, only incidentally - applications turn out to be to companies that are actually staffing/placement companies, kind of thing. And weirdly, most of those never get back to me with 'well, what about this job' after the one I apply for falls through before I even get an interview.

I expect so. An independent Alberta would become a Republic.
I don't place any credence in the so-called "legal" mechanism for Alberta to leave Canada. When the time is right, it will be a unilateral declaration of independence.
And the troll Pawl ought to remember that only about 30% of the population of the 13 Colonies were strongly in favor of independence.

We don't like to hear such things but the good ones are here to do things that they could not do in their home societies but that does not make them amenable to supporting Us versus Them when the inevitable crunch occurs. Seen it happen in real time during times like 9/11 or tensions in the Middle East.
Lee Kuan Yew was correct unfortunately--and that is because most people are followers and not ideological per se.
It is when a crisis occurs and a choice must be made, they side with one or the other side and that is going to be who they identify with. For Southerners in the time of the Civil War, they sided with their homes, kin, and friends. For Northerners, the same. And the few dissenters on either side were silenced or worse.

Dave - IT hiring is some of the worst about doing what you describe. Apply for it anyway, highlight the hell out of the things you can do. Realize unfortunately some of those companies are looking for someone who doesn't exist - some of them may just be essentially ghost jobs to fulfill an in ternal recruiting requirement. Current "Talent Acquisition" practices suck, as do the bosses running those sections. Sorry about that.
And networking is the biggest key - even if you suck at it, lay out a network map, and start filling it.

Yes, those hiring view such as disposable, dated, and are far more critical of them than justified. It is the one form of bigotry still allowed combining age with racial discrimination. It is ingrained into corporate think. This is not the job market of even 2016, it is infested with those making decisions doing so in view of what they think the organization, not them, value. And that marketplace does not value older white men. Tech has become particularly vicious about it.
Small business is less likely to do that because they are often more on a knife's edge of survival but has its own problems simply to keep running and make a profit.

Mid-Morning Art Thread
Pablo Picasso One of the assumptions I make when searching for sources of the art I want to post is that the museum that possesses the work has the most interest in using an accurate version of the piece on the internet. There are plenty of brighter and and more brightly colored versions of this Picasso all over the web, so if you like art that looks like a neon sign...have at it! But The Art Institute of Chicago has this version, and I am going to trust them, even though they are probably filthy blue-city commies!

Some people try to pick up girls and get called assholes
This never happened to Pablo Picasso
He could walk down your street and girls could not resist to stare, and so
Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole
Well, the girls would turn the color of the
Avocado when he would drive down their street in his El Dorado
He could walk down your street and girls could not resist to stare
Pablo Picasso never got called an asshole

There was a guy, can’t remember his name but became semi-famous because he could free-hand very authentic looking dollar bills and higher denomination US currency. Boggs maybe was his name.
He wouldn’t try to pass them off as legal tender, just order a meal and then hand them one and say, “hey isn’t this really cool?” and it oftentimes worked. The Secret Service, then under the US Treasury was in charge of going after counterfeiters and they determined he wasn’t doing anything illegal. He termed them “art” or whatever.

True enough, but both ideologies are in service to Satan (whether they acknowledge it or not). Some of Marx's writings admit to demonic influences, and Mo wasn't taking dictation from the Archangel Gabriel (I find it very revealing that Mo's version of Heaven was very carnal, while Jesus Christ taught that even married couples would be celibate in Heaven).
But ... Satan always eventually breaks his tools.

But I will raise a point of order: there was no Mohammed. he was created after the fact. The same """scholars""" who nitpick the Gospels and Greco-Roman philosophers and historians are completely silent on the lack of any contemporaneous reference to Islam's purported founder.

Saw that Aldi's is selling "Frozen Ice" cubes that you might be interested in. Four large, square, crystal clear ice cubes for $4.99.
Aldi is selling Crystal Clear Frozen Ice Cubes as a 4-pack for $4.99. They’re about 1.8 inches across, made with reverse osmosis (RO) purified water, and are designed to melt more slowly so drinks stay colder with less dilution.

But I will raise a point of order: there was no Mohammed. he was created after the fact. The same """scholars""" who nitpick the Gospels and Greco-Roman philosophers and historians are completely silent on the lack of any contemporaneous reference to Islam's purported founder.
Gibbon pointed this out more than 200 years ago.

That would account for the odd and contradictory passages in the Koran. Of the contemporary Koran, there is only a couple of pages that have been dated to when Mo supposedly existed. The earliest nearly complete Koran is dated nearly two centuries later.

Röntgen only discovered X-rays in 1895, so it must be a new wave of art criticism to admit how tech-savvy Picasso was.

There was a "burning of the books" a couple of century after "Mohammed" and the Caliphs kept the book under tight control. Even today I think all Korans use the same version commissioned in 1922 or thereabouts. When they find older versions, they hide them.
Actual Western Islamic scholars are like Cold War spies, using fake names and moving to safe house-style libraries.
An Islamic version of "The Davinci Code" would be lit - and probably fatal for the author.

I've read your previous posts, and agree with you: China can't successfully mount an amphibious invasion. Besides a lack of a warrior culture, their engineering is correctly-assessed to be inferior. Big copiers of stolen technology, they lack the ability to execute it well. I remember reading an article years ago in which the Chinese were bragging that they had finally been able to domestically manufacture the micro-perforated balls necessary to make ballpoint pens.
Plus our punitive expedition against Iran has revealed that the vaunted Chinese HQ-9 SAM is garbage. We knocked-out all three SAM batteries in about an hour with zero launches.

I'm working on a draft that discusses their equipment and that will feature prominently.
Taiwan is the true China, the China of meticulous craftsmanship and quality work. The China of artists and beauty. I have a Mauser Kar98k that was made in China in 1945. Lots of people don't know that the Nationalists got training and equipment from Germany in 1935, including tooling for the Kar98k. These are fully parts compatible with the German-made ones, and in fact mine (which must have gone through a lot before coming here as a trophy) has a German stock and bolt. It was captured by the Communists, who struck out Chiang Kai-shek's name and stamped militia marks on the stock.
It was probably sent as aid to Vietnam and captured there. I found a book documenting Vietnam trophy weapons and our boys picked up a lot of crazy stuff.

You're just mad that "Left" is actually synonymous with "Communist." The old-school Democrat politicians were perfectly content to hide their Collectivist-bent while enriching themselves. The Democrat Socialists of America loons are just claiming the Communism out loud.
Psaki was (and is) a paid liar. She sees everything from the perspective that there will be "Heaven-on-Earth (tm)" if people she liked controlled every aspect of our lives. She's yet another huckster promising free stuff paid for by other people. Just another person conflating charity for collectivism.

And if you didn't have socialism, you couldn't be as "democratic".
So it's not like "democracy" hasn't been tied to "socialism" by some major figure of Marxism, itself.
And I've heard some of the socialists in Washington, and have heard that respond in sync with that relationship, before.
So, if socialism makes "democracy", what the heck is different about "socialism with democracy"?

I gather it is the Haredis ultra-whatever they are that claim it is an ancient tradition, and the big issues are that doing something about it could break the Likud party's coalition, and Itmar Ben Gvir, Minister of National security has defended this behavior in the past.

Atheists certainly tend toward that extreme. Few have the stomach for Marcus Aurelius Stoicism, easier by far to fall into libertinism and then cast Christians as villains depriving the atheist of fun and games. Muzzies though also fit the description intentionally because the whole basis for the religion is 'submit' and then sotto voce, or 'die'.
And they endlessly recite their Koran without thinking as many of them don't actually understand Arabic and those that do, thinking is dangerous as the entire religion condones killing heretics and those that lose the faith. And when that document is examined, it is found to be full of holes, contradictory, and lies. As if the purpose was to create a political and military movement to supplant the existing Christians in the Middle East and displace them as king of the hill.

What's interesting is that today's Communists are not of the Marxist-Leninist wing but the Anarchist one. That's part of why I keep getting Spanish Civil War vibes these days.
Also worth recalling that there were three Anarchist rebellions in the runup to the actual war, followed by a major insurrection in Asturias that required the Foreign Legion to suppress.
I suspect if the fall elections disappoint the Dems, we will see more overt violence on their part.

He's not telling the truth *now* just because you think he has no reason to lie. He does. There is always a reason to lie.

Islam started as a Christian heresy, and it was later retconned into a faith to support the new Arab empire. The gaps and contradictions are where Christian teachings were inconvenient and papered over because of pressing dynastic needs.
Thus: Mohammed was given license to do nasty stuff because that was what the rulers were doing and they wanted a precedent to legitimize it.

The DSA loons want to empty prisons of the "criminal criminals" (to coin a term) to make room for the "thought criminals." Psaki, I'm pretty certain, had no problem with people involved in the January 6th "Insurrection (tm)" being tossed in prison for the crimes of walking on the grass, not even walking through doors that had been opened for them.
The old school Democrats have been fostering these DSA monster babies for decades. The DSA is merely the culmination of years of Communist indoctrination.

They are scared shitless of losing power. They are using the DSA to vault the dead Democrat Party back ahead post-Trump. It's so obvious but I understand why some don't see it. Or say they don't see it.
When Democrats are scared shitless, they use the media and legal means and threats and cheating and violence to raze and destroy. This is the dog that isn't barking. They aren't scared of shit. They are ideologues who do what the party tells them to do.

The GOP is slowly but systematically being purged of the old Establishment hacks. It's Trump's party now, and you either adapt or you will get flushed out. This is particularly true at the local and state level, and those people will go on to run for governor and congress in the coming years.
The Dems have a serious problem with succession because the old guard never retired, and is impossible to remove, so they are dying off leaving much younger and more radical successors who have never had power and the discipline it brings. That's why their Gen X politicians are all perverts and Nazis, because the mainstream was locked down by the Pelosi/Schumer generation.

Gramsci is who the current Marxists follow and it was he, in Italian prison, that formulated the ideas that the left, in order to have a successful revolution in an industrial society, had to at first destroy the existing society. Marxism after WWI had a problem in that the predicted revolutions by Marx were failing or non existent in industrialized societies and were only finding ground in more primitive ones like Russia, China, etc.
Gramsci is the one that provided the framework for the Frankfurt School to demoralize and destroy Western society by harping on its faults and claiming its successes were in fact evil.

What did Trump say when he came on the scene.
He wants to ban muslims. He wants to punish women and doctors for abortions. Then he "softened".
But he was one guy. You are seeing the same thing being done now, but from the other side of the fence. The extreme views are getting air time and now just significantly leftarded things suddenly seem "moderate". And they get to play both sides of it which keeps them impossible to pin down. This is a controlled demolition of the Democrat Party.

This is exactly what they did in Spain. When the Popular Front gained power in 1936, they emptied the jails, unleashing an orgy of violence and that was what ultimately pushed the generals into mounting a coup.
The problem the Dems have is that they are likely going to be locked out of power due to more honest elections. Our elections have been broken for about a decade, but Trump is cleaning it up, and the courts are belatedly recognizing the mortal danger of continuing to turn a blind eye to the problem.
That's why I see armed rebellions, and Trump is slowly building the case for going after the leadership.
I want to add that all the stuff we are seeing about El-Sayed and all the other candidates was held back for a reason. It is very old news, but kudos to the Michigan GOP for keeping it under lock and key until after the primaries.

The question for all of us is whether we will get backsliding when Trump is gone in 2028. The problem is that the GOP donor class WANTS cheap labor and new consumers from immigration. And they want to be able to send work abroad to fatten profits to slowly strangle and impoverish American workers. So you keep seeing candidates push amnesty like Mike Lindell or talk frankly off mike to those donors like the current governor of Idaho talking to Ag employers. Those people, including many small businessmen, view cheap labor as their right and that is because it fattens their pocketbooks. And those in big corporations want a borderless world--food stamps for all plumps Walmart, endless Medicaid, plumps Big Medicine and Pharma, and sending work abroad and H1Bs lessen labor costs so that top executives get fatter salaries.

If you look at the painting carefully, you'll see the ghost of another painting underneath it. Picasso was dirt-poor in his blue-period years, and it was common for him to reuse his canvases by just painting over them.
As for Canada and Alberta, I lived in Canada for five years, and my impression is that Alberta will make noises about going independent, but what Albertans really want is a better deal from Ottawa - something akin to the special treatment that Quebec gets now - to give them more control over their natural resources. I would be stunned if it led to a full-blown independence movement, let alone petitioning to join the United States: the ties to Confederation are simply too strong, and the barriers to independence too high.

The Morning Report — 8/ 14 /26
really reflective of a national trend towards socialism, but if so then why is the Democrat Party establishment so desperate to put a muzzle on freaks like EL Sayed, Talarico and of course Hong and all the rest. And so with that as a set-up, there's this piece...
Are there Republicans who’ve doctored their resumes? Sure. But faking your past, or your views, or the sound of your voice seems to be a job requirement for Democrat politicians these days. The Talarico campaign distanced itself from these folks after their cover was blown. But everything about Talarico is as fake, from his Christianity to his barbecue photo op. Around the same time, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, last seen trying out a fake southern accent at an event in Memphis, was trying to pretend that she’s not a crazy leftist despite being a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, which wants to defund the military, close prisons, open the borders, eliminate the Senate, the presidency and the Supreme Court, and nationalize various industries. When ABC News’ Jonathan Karl asked about her past statements, she laughed that “woke 1 was crazy,” and blamed COVID because “I think that, you know, during lockdown, of course, rhetoric in that time is not rhetoric that we would use today.” . . .Our best guess is that Democrats are more likely than Republicans to do this because for most Democrats, their only interest is getting and keeping government power. They love government and want to control its every lever. And if that means pretending to be a normie for the rube voters, so be it. But, shucks, whadda we know? We’re just a buncha gosh-darn banjo-pickin’ hillbillies from yonder flyover country.Sure the Democrats either outright lie about their true intentions or else do their best to cover them up. To me it's another puzzler, do the Democrats really think they can bamboozle a significant portion of normal America into voting for them? But lest we forget, anyone with eyes to see and more than two functioning brain cells could plainly see the dangerous fraud that was Barack Obama and yet there he was in 2008 and then again in 2012 winning the presidency and the fuse was lit. As CBD noted on the podcast, horrid as the purple-lipped closet-queen America-hating thug was and still is, he was slick and polished enough to really fake it all the way. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens both this coming November and then two years after that to see if Trump and the MAGA movement are just speed bumps on our inevitable road to hell or if they are please God a real course correction back to American restoration.
Until then we'll be enduring this depravity.
The National World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C., was vandalized Thursday with red graffiti reading “Clean Hands Dirty $,” while soap dumped into its fountain filled the memorial with bubbles. Authorities blocked off the fountain Thursday afternoon as U.S. Park Police investigated the vandalism. The Interior Department called the incident an “utter disgrace” and vowed to find whoever is responsible. “The World War II Memorial is a sacred place to honor the service of our members of the Armed Forces and the over 400,000 Americans who gave the ultimate sacrifice in WWII,” the department said. “The vandalism that occurred is an utter disgrace and will not be tolerated.”Were I a betting man, I'd lay odds that the piece(s) of shit that did this are registered Democrats or full on DSA freakazoids. He/She/It deserves being bull-whipped on live television preferably by any WW2 veterans of which I'm sure there'd be volunteers out the wahzoo. And then, speaking of fakers and takers, there's this horrendous outburst for which there is no rational excuse.
Curtis Sliwa on Thursday told relatives of 9/11 victims who want New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani kept away from this year’s Ground Zero commemoration to “stop being sore losers,” arguing that they should respect the office even if they disagree with the person holding it. “He’s the mayor. Stop being sore losers!” Sliwa told reporters Thursday. “You knew this is Zohran Mamdani. He was never a fake, phony, fraudulent, fugazi like a lot of politicians. He told you who he was.”Yes, asshole, he told us who he was and what he said and what he is utterly underscores justification of his being barred from within 10,000 light years of Ground Zero Forever. Curtis Sliwa's logic would allow for a furlough from prison and a limousine ride to the 9/11 ceremony for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. Sliwa should only die, be cremated and his ashes dumped in the Marianas Trench next to Bin Laden. Seems appropriate. I lost an old schoolmate and was nearly a victim myself that day, you Scumbag. On these and all the rest of it, I nevertheless bid you all to have a great weekend!

really reflective of a national trend towards socialism, "
The polls were designed to influence the vote, nothing more, nothing less. By showing "their" candidate 20+ points ahead they hoped to keep moderate democrats at home for the primary knowing the vast majority of them will pull the level in november for the democrat candidate.

When Obama's brand of Leftism was the most potent brew on offer, they chose that. Now their own cohort is growing into power as the boomers and silents die off, so it's getting more and more potent.
Soon, a huge number of those older people will die off, leaving only the small cohort of Xers, who will not have the numbers to matter in context of the much larger Millennial generation.
Everything goes full tilt at that point, because Millennials will be able to completely actualize their politics and give us the full Mangione. That's when the DSA types drop the "D" pretense altogether, and say "we're the vanguard of the woke folk, all hail the Party and its Maximum Thought Leader, Oliver Logan al-Amriki."

All models are wrong. Some models are useful.
This technology change has come upon us so suddenly our attitudes haven't adjusted. Polls were the go-to indicator for decades and decades.
In fact, you couldn't get your name on a ballot without achieving some threshold in a poll somewhere.

"New Data"—No sources of this "New Data"™ are cited, which means it was pulled out of some politician's ass who is trying to flee the 90% demand for the SAVE America Act.
"Healthcare" is always an issue, if the issue is: How can we steal even more money and obtain more power in Babylon DC
Why? Because no one on planet earth can define "healthcare". Its one of the most eisegeted words used today (along with "Racism")
The other clue: "too much money is going through the insurance companies"
Translation: Babylon DC demands a bigger cut.
So instead of SAVE America Act, we are supposed to embrace even more government takeover of one-sixth the total economy.

Based on their commentary on social media, it seems to be more along the traditional lines of "I made bad decisions. I don't have everything I want and other people have more so the government should take from them."
Of course, they imagine that the government will give their socialist baby some of the loot but that's just because they're stupid, as well as greedy.

What I can't figure out is, are the frightening polls including by our wonderful friends at the Heartland Institute really reflective of a national trend towards socialism, but if so then why is the Democrat Party establishment so desperate to put a muzzle on freaks like EL Sayed, Talarico and of course Hong and all the rest.”
I believe that this is yet another sign that, even when the numbers come from people who are our allies, polling is now worthless except as a propaganda tool (which is it keeps being done)
The problem is not just bias of the pollster; the problem is that the entire mathematical underpinnings of polling is no better than phrenology or divining chicken entrails. It’s like expecting pinpoint accuracy to come from reading a horoscope.
Add to that the sad fact that political attitudes are now treated like fashion statements by much of the electorate.

A small group of organized individuals can take over local offices. The focus is always on the larger places.
The local T.E.A. party did that and put 4 conservatives in office. One is still in the running for his reelection in November.

The Fox news polls are the worst though...they literally reflect nothing of reality on the ground in politics and never had - their track record is the worst among pollsters - yet the hosts of the news programs (all liberals) try and make their hapless guests answer to them...it's the point of these polls, to get conservative guests to admit somehow that no one wants them out in the heartland - it's purpose is getting them to admit to a lie.

“58% of likely voters aged 18-39 support government-run grocery stores in every town in America.” 58% of those 18-39 want stuff that is cheap or free and haven’t thought about it any more deeply than that.
“62% of likely voters aged 18-39 said they would support more government housing and nationwide rent freeze.” Ditto.
“44% think their economic future and personal happiness will be worse than their parents, only 22% believe it will be better.”
44% have seen the way things have gone the last 20 years and drawn a rational conclusion. It’s the job of any who wish to lead to convince them that this trend can be reversed. Very few republicans “get” this simple fact.

Because some of the people who put him in office might be there. Because if he does run his mouth you know what he'll likely say. And if it's anywhere as awful as some think, the media will have to defend it. Or not.

Big business (and their lobbyists that work Congress over to get the desired result) couldn't care less about America. As long as they can make money by paying less in wages, that's where their loyalty lies. It's disgusting.
In reading Ron Chernow's Washington, during the Revolutionary War, Washington would be apoplectic at the big farmers and others selling their wares to the British, not because they were Loyalists, but to make a boatload of money. Who cares if the Continental Army had no provisions and barely any money to survive and just might lose the war because of it. All they cared about was the money they could make, even to the detriment of the patriots. Some things never change.

Talarico gets zero black votes. He's alienating the core of Texan values with his blasphemic religious rantings. He resonates with NONE of the common folk here.
ANY poll showing him within a country mile of Paxton is full of shit and just more of the theft attempt of every f*cking election of this country.

I've tried my best to explain my perspective from the start...
It's WWF style infighting. The DNC gets to push hard toward socialism without having to completely own it. Maybe in case the push goes tits up, but I think more because they have their candidate picked and it will be a "bridge" candidate that will satisfy the establishment, the normies (by seeming safe), and the DSA who will get some big wins along the way.
Like maybe the DSA get to knock Kamala or Newsom out in some showy WAY. They feel they are making their mark. This is how I expect it to go.
Always remember the Left plans 3 to 5 years in advance. They have the media, intelligence agencies, and half or more of the opposing party. This "popular" move toward socialism is a yuge psy op, not unlike covid, blm, metoo. It's designed to fool even people like us.

Exactly. There are multiple videos out there where they've figured it out. The left is paying the pollsters to come out and publish ranting bullshit in effort to skew the voting public to either change their vote or scare them away.
And our side is stupid enough to stay home, as they showed in the past couple election cycles.

Exactly this. It’s a psy-op. There’s an interesting perversion of this technique used in business and academia. Originally it was developed by the Rand Corporation as a method of refining expert opinion.
It’s called the “Delphi Technique” for dealing with contentious issues in group settings. Local governments use it a lot, and you’ll see it at fake “Town Halls” sometimes. Generally anytime they start talking about neutral “Facilitators” being brought in, or breaking down everyone into smaller groups.

One day in the next year or so we are going to wake up in a new world, and not even know what happened. Republicans will be the old tired eatablishment. Democrats will be the "working" (har) man. All the cultural and psychological seeds are being sown for it.
I keep saying (though I wouldn't bet) I think we are headed toward a male nominee for the Demorats. Women seem to be being beaten back hard, suffering a lot of cultural blows at once, that all seem disparate. Could just be "zeitgeist" driving those things but I don't think so.
Tea leaves have been read. Trump's drive toward masculine leadership, mostly the day he got shot, put paid to their First Woman bs. This is now convenient for the Left who are at present kissing up to their new friends in Islam. The Left will always push - and they will step on anyone to do it. And they will lie, so women won't even know it's being done to them.

If they don’t, we lose.
There is only one way to beat their fraud machine, and Trump exposed it. Show up in large enough numbers that a win for the other side is statistically impossible. It’s math.
There is also a dearth of responses to people who have legitimate concerns. You cannot win only talking about how bad the other guy is. Even of that is the honest truth. People don’t seem to understand just how bad things will be under Democrat rule. It wasn’t that long ago they were in charge. We are still trying to drag ourselves out of the malaise they created. Going back will only make things worse.

Examples of government action are the purported kidnapping of Gretchen Whitmer. False flag ops.
"In April 2009, Obama's Department of Homeland Security assessment warned of a rise in right-wing extremism fueled by the election of the first Black president. An internal intelligence memo titled "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment" was distributed to law enforcement. The memo suggested that disgruntled returning military veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan would be recruited by right wing extremists to become political assassins.
It was, of course, all a lie. There were no violent right wing extremists. The SPLC had to create their own by funding nut jobs to do their dirty work and blame it on Republicans.
Racial hatred is the only lasting impact of the Obama administration."

They will NEVER get those barbarians out, and ethnic cleansing of the natives is virtually guaranteed to pop up in some places.
In the states we are lucky they only did this at the small to medium city level in most places, and that PDT has largely stopped it. And, of course, lucky that unlike the poor doomed brits, we are armed (which is why they couldn't take it as far or as fast here)

I'm sorta with you. Sorta.
Look at Silents, Boomers, GenX, and Gen Z - none of them are political monocultures.
But my generation, who I grew up with, are. I'd reckon fewer than 10% of us are right of center, and the majority of the rest are *far* left of it (as such things are defined at this moment). We were perfectly and completely indoctrinated in a way that wasn't possible before or since. We're the best they can ever do, vis-a-vis the New Soviet Man.
For the next several decades, we're the majority.

I believe there’s evidence to support the idea that this was actually connected to a large online betting site. Her outlier poll came out, odds moved, and some “whale” players shifted positions and then cashed out in ways that netted them millions in instant profits.

Whoever should have run ads showing this with sad music and Abdul smirking face instead of ads disrespecting bitches like Whitmer and Mooch.
Far-left Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, who has campaigned heavily on his credentials as a doctor and public-health official, is under fire over his time leading the Detroit Health Department, during which the city’s animal-control operation euthanized more than 4,000 dogs and cats.
According to records obtained by the Daily Mail, nearly 4,680 dogs and cats were put down by Detroit Animal Care and Control between 2015 and 2017 while El-Sayed served as executive director and health officer.
In 2015 alone, the facility killed 1,988 dogs and 272 cats, accounting for more than a quarter of all dogs euthanized in the county that year.

Every politician, political party, corporation, etc., that wants to get a fairly accurate targeted audience perception of candidates, products, corporate reputation, etc, commissions and purchases private polls. Or has it's own internal polling operation. Both types run by personnel with proven track-records of utility and accuracy of results. Hillary's 2016 private polling was famously inaccurate. That's why we've never since heard of her now-infamous campaign manager, Robby Mook.
Publicly-released poll results by 'pros' are worth what the public pays for them. Nothing.

Remember that one time years ago you got drunk, and the hangover lasted for a week. The one where you promised yourself you would never drink again? That.
I don’t believe people understand just how much damage Democrats did to the economy. They flooded the country with money that wasn’t productive and used Covid as their excuse. It turned every economic incentive upside down and beat the productive sector with a lead pipe.
Think about the macro cycle associated with that paradigm. You steal money from taxpayers at confiscatory rates. You hand it out to people who don’t produce anything. Almost zero economic payback. Worse, it becomes inflationary as the people you hand it out to spend that largess on everything and distort the market. Add to that millions of illegal immigrants who produce almost zero economic activity getting huge taxpayer funded handouts. That undermines all our social welfare programs and makes them fiscally unsound. They also distorted (read inflated) the cost of everything from housing and food to medical care. There isn’t even enough room for me to continue, but you get the point. Two years ain’t enough.

C.S. Lewis: favorable conditions NEVER come
There are always plenty of rivals to our work. We are always falling in love or quarreling, looking for jobs or fearing to lose them, getting ill and recovering, following public affairs. If we let ourselves, we shall always be waiting for some distraction or other to end before we can really get down to our work.
The only people who achieve much are those who want knowledge so badly that they seek it while the conditions are still unfavorable. Favorable conditions never come.

----- Save your stuff on devices you own. Music, photos -- yeah, we all know that. It even applies to TV broadcast footage!! PBS broadcaster loses access to 50TB of data comprising 70 years of TV history after contracted cloud storage vendor goes defunct
Nine PBS is afraid that it will lose over 70 years of archival materials and programming after its contracted cloud storage vendor has apparently gone out of business. According to Current, the channel used Open Source Storage, or OSS, for storing over 50TB of data — but it suddenly lost access to its data earlier this year. Nine PBS has been working with OSS and its predecessor since 2019 and intended to renew its contract on March 6 of this year. The company never responded and abruptly cut off the station’s data access even though it still had 30 days to retrieve its data after the contract ended. The station dug a little bit deeper when it discovered that the OSS website no longer existed and was listed as delinquent under the Colorado Secretary of State. It also discovered that OSS utilized Iron Mountain’s services, so it sent a demand letter to the latter to preserve its data and to "pay any reasonable costs associated with its demand." At the time, Iron Mountain did not confirm or deny that it possessed Nine PBS’ data.
This wouldn't have been an issue if the organization bought a $1,000 NAS and populated it with a few hard drives.

Not exactly growing up. By the time they brought out the PC in 1981, I had already been computing on my Radio Shack Model I for three years. It was the FUTURE!
I skipped the PC and didn't upgrade until the PC-AT. Did get the Shack Model 100 "laptop" in the meanwhile, and logged into CompuServe, pre-wwweb.
I knew every chip in that Model I and even messed with some of them in ways I never could later.

A buddy and I bought the Borland C and split the cost ($500). My middle son was writing software at the his age of 16.
He got his MS in Comp Sci 15 years ago and is now ridiculously wealthy.
In hindsight, it was cheaper than putting him through college, although I did pony up the $5,000 that he owed the Univ. of Toronto so he could graduate.
I think of it as a great investment in my son's future.

I like Phil Keaggy, because he was a virtuoso guitar player who used his talent for Christ. Sadly, a lot of "christian" musicians these days want to use the genre to jump into mainstream pop. They can't write, they can barely sing, and none of it is worshiping God, it seems to worship the singer. Hubby calls it worshiptainment. It's not a compliment.

I have yet to see a flock camera. I guess either busy driving or spaced out, but am going to look and wave.
My 95yr old mother, in the boonies, called about some excitement down the road (which I find fit for Morons).
Apparently there was an ambulance, fire truck, sheriff and hwy patrol car at a farm. I still haven't figured out the hwy patrol, but whatever.
A woman walked 3 miles or more to get in a neighbor's pen of baby goats and frolic. When the owners told her to get off their property she claimed dehydration and walked into a large pond up to her head. At this point 911 was called.
When the deputies got her name they called her husband who refused to come pick her up.
Therefore the ambulance took her away.
Cue song: "They're Coming to Take Me Away" Hahaheehee. 1966 Napolean XIV

But it can be a problem for anyone, even doctors.
And when Constipation occurs, it's interesting to see just what doctors consider important about a laxative they might use or recommend.
Well, a majority of the doctors we heard from had this to say.
A laxative should be effective, gentle, as close to natural acting as possible, and a medicine that can be used with complete confidence.
Now, Ex-lax has been popular with many doctors and millions of people over the years because pleasant-tasting chocolatey Ex-lax is effective.
Overnight it helps you toward your normal regularity.
Ex-lax is gentle.
Next morning it gives you the closest thing to natural action.
And that's why many doctors and millions of people use Ex-lax with complete confidence.
Ex-lax, the laxative that helps you toward your normal regularity, gently, overnight.

There is something about a dish pan full of nice warm soap suds that makes a woman feel that her dishes will come out really clean.
Every tiny granule dissolves completely in your dishwater, whips up to billowy clouds of suds and White King suds rinse away quickly and completely too when you douse your dishes with hot water.
Leave china, glassware and silver so extra bright they dry in a jiffy.
White King soap is extra kind to hands too.
It is so easy on lovely hands that thousands and thousands of ladies who use it say I love White King.

Over 30 high school students from Humble ISD's Kingwood High School and Atascocita High School were taken on a school-day field trip to the Centro Islamico, operated by IslamInSpanish in the Houston area.
The visit included a tour, lunch from halal food trucks, observation of midday prayer, and a presentation. Students were even provided scarves. A CAIR Houston representative spoke to them about their "rights as Muslim students and allies."

He had the light pen, and a program that displayed options for crust, size, ingredients of a pizza. The computer would dial the pizza place. The artificial larynx (Speak & Spell, Stephen Hawking) would place the order. Pretty slick.
I should add, he modified the kit so instead of sixteen lines of 64 characters each in b&w, his had a full 16-color CGA of twenty-four lines of 80 chr each (wasn't it?). It displayed a bit oddly, filling in the 16*64 first and then painting the rest of the screen, but it worked.

If we went back to executions and long prison terms like we had in the 50s we'd have the crime rates of the 50s.
But the government isn't interested in that. So instead they offer endless monitoring that only ever results in them telling us "we were monitoring that killer before he killed. And its a good thing we were monitoring him because otherwise, uh, well, he would have killed people without us monitoring him first!"

I quit for 2 reasons:
1) For unknown reasons, the popup ads stopped appearing-- completely. I was getting hundreds every night, then... nothing. night. No idea what went right.
2) One of the mods (presumably) started removing my popup ad posts. I don't go to the trouble of typing just to have my posts disappeared. Again, I thought the popup ads were so off-the-wall that they were funny.

Funny story - the guy that I was dating at the time had never kissed a girl, either. So we kinda looked at each other. He asked if I knew what to do. I said no. He said he didn't, either.
So he said he would ask his older brother how to go about it, and we agreed to go out again the next week and try it out. Which we did. Over and over. Fun times.
We were good kids, though - both of us went to our respective spouses as virgins (I always figured that with my luck I would end up pregnant the first time I had unmarried sex, and I didn't want to have to tell the parental units that their innocent little girl wasn't quite so innocent 😂

I very much recommend a terrier. Much easier to live with, and in our case, Louie was a dedicated mouser. And rabbit hunter. And gopher hunter. And occasionally a phantom-in-the-old-cornshucks hunter. He killed everything alive in the old farmhouse we bought and remodeled. And was cuddly at night.

The Buckner Building was built during the Cold War as a self-contained facility, so yeah, that was the idea. I think the Begich Towers work sorta that way, it's all condos although some of them are relet, so that people who fish out of Whittier have somewhere to shack up. No idea why else you would live there, unless you run the tunnel or the ferry terminal. But, when you drive in, you bring whatever you need, because there really is nowhere to buy groceries or necessities. There is a pretty good ice cream joint, but only during the summer. I have no idea who lives there year around. Not many.

This is the second time ever I was given a task to complete in a dream before a dead loved one showed up to shoot the shit with me. So weird.
In this case I was looking through documents in boxes. It's almost like the task comes along to keep me engaged and "in it". I have since researched and seen similar reports in what seem like "visit" dreams. I embraced her and then she had to go. I couldn't hold on but the dream world stayed which is very different from how lucid dreams go. Those vanish entirely. I was sad all day today, it was like losing her again.

I lost my BFF in first grade to a brain tumor. Linda Austin. She was amazing in every way. When she lost her hair, mom let me shave my head to be in solidarity with her.
She died when she was nearly 7 years old. Not a day goes by when I don't offer up a prayer for her. Sometimes I dream of her as well. I don't think I can quite summon up her face when awake, but I seem to know her immediately when I'm asleep.

Anywhere you go there are cameras. Any store you go to. And if you go into a bank, a drug store to a wal mart a hardware store. They have them looking down streets, and high crime areas. Big deal. I don't care. If they help stop crime, great. If you don't like them, why? You doing something wrong? If not why do you care? Suppose some sorry ass decided to key your car and got caught on a flock camera and the sorry ass got thrown in jail, would you hate that? I don't think so.

It wouldn't take a Flock camera to do that; an ordinary monitor camera could catch that act. Flock cameras are automated license plate readers, so the database knows who you are, and everywhere you go. I'm sure they, or the police, combine that with cellphone geolocation data, and God knows what else. The potential for abuse is enormous, and numerous abuses are already on record.

"Leandra's Law"
Leandra, age 11, was unfortunately killed in a drunk driving incident. Horrible, no doubt about it.
The thing is, it was ALREADY illegal to drive drunk and ALREADY manslaughter to kill someone while driving drunk.
The drunk driver in this case pulled a 4-12 year sentence, BEFORE "Leandra's Law" was a thing. You could argue that should've been more, and I wouldn't dispute it.
The new "law" provides for a sentence of up to four years and a fine of $1000–$5000.
In other words, less than the perp got under the existing law.
But everyone got to grandstand for the cameras instead of doing actual useful work.

Several of my neighbors have video security systems. Somehow, I don't mind that. Probably because I trust them more so than I'd ever trust my mean older bro!
When hubby first got sick and I ended up "retiring" from job to care for him-- older bro called and when I told him what's going on, his only reply was a *very sarcastic* "good luck with that."
Fker.

I often bitch about my neighbors on here. It reached a pinacle last Monday. Both parents arrested for felony neglect or abuse. I don't think there was physical abuse as I know the kids pretty well. The neglect part I can believe. The mom is shit. Antifa minded twat. The dad is somewhat okay but he keeps her stupid ass around so... I won't even go into the dude with blood all over his face telling me as I drove past I should stay away from them. Like I don't know that. Their kids on the otherhand I have known since 2 yo and birth. They are friends with my grandkids. They are also a bit slow. They also instigate a lot of shit. I keep them on a tight leash when they are here.
Gahhh. I don't even know what to think about this. Now I get to explain to my grands why their friends aren't coming over.

Indeed. Guevara hates da gheys. He begged for his life at the very end.
" Guevara dropped his own fully functional rifle, with a near full magazine, and begged, 'Don’t shoot! Don’t shoot! I am Che Guevara and I am worth more to you alive than dead!' As his small guerilla force was being decimated below, in the very trap he had led them into, Guevara’s only concern was for himself as he continued to plead with the Bolivian Rangers not to kill him."

I've been watching Enterprise while doing my projects.
Very good. Maybe one of the best of all of them. They did 'comedy' episodes very well. And 'A Night in Sickbay' was pretty sexy.

Abdul keeps getting better and better. The Dem establishment tried to br___ him down with commercials saying he disrespected women.
They should have used this...
Abdul must not like dogs.
Far-left Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, who has campaigned heavily on his credentials as a doctor and public-health official, is under fire over his time leading the Detroit Health Department, during which the city’s animal-control operation euthanized more than 4,000 dogs and cats.
According to records obtained by the Daily Mail, nearly 4,680 dogs and cats were put down by Detroit Animal Care and Control between 2015 and 2017 while El-Sayed served as executive director and health officer.
In 2015 alone, the facility killed 1,988 dogs and 272 cats, accounting for more than a quarter of all dogs euthanized in the county that year.

I was surprised that ATF didn't ask for a stay but they still have another 50-something days to file an appeal so anything can still happen. That said, I'm not sure how many people who wanted one were still being put off post-OBBB. Some for sure, but tens of thousands? Millions? I dunno.
When OBBB passed, my prediction was that increased demand would lead to increased prices which would lead to increased production and/or new producers which would lead to decreased prices. That actually doesn't seemed to have happened. So will it happen now? Again, I dunno. It still seems reasonable to me but I'm a proven loser at predicting what other people will do.

Quick Hits
Joshua CarrAnd if you thought "they'll next accuse Tyler Robinson's lawyers of being part of the conspiracy to frame him because they admitted he killed Charlie Kirk," step up to the cashier to collect your winnings. Huh: Scott Bessent says that George Soros, who he used to work for -- on the financial side, not the civilization-destroying foundation side -- tried to tank the markets after Trump's 2016 win, selling off everything to move the markets down. Bessent said he seized on that as a buying opportunity and made a fortune.
@Joshua_the_car I debated a Candace Owens fan last night. I kid you not he opened with this: "We all know this case is fishy because we've all watched CSI and Dexter and know how a crime scene works."
This behavior is normalized, indulged, and encouraged. We have been demoralized to the point where our weaklings and cowards, which is most of us, especially those politically-attuned enough to rise in woke bureaucracies, are too afraid to say "this is wrong and will be punished." Oh no, Hollywood wash-out "Lily" Wachowski, who now pretends to be a woman, cries that he can't get funding for a movie with an all-trans cast:
I saw someone mocking a leftwing female director for being just absolute crap. Then he pointed out, "It's funny that the 'Wachowski sibilings' haven't made a good movie since they became 'women.'" I think that's actually true. When was the last time they made a good movie? To be honest, I never really gave a shit about The Matrix and I don't understand why people are so ga-ga for it. But fine, I'll count that. What since? The sequels were trash. Didn't they do that terrible Stallone/Banderas dueling assassins movie? That was horrible. Then they did Jupiter Ascending, an infamous bomb. I've heard Cloud Atlas is decent but here's the thing -- I never believed that. Gavin Newsom visited early-primary-state Michigan to talk up how similar California and Michigan are. That's the whole problem, says Justine Bateman.
Justine BatemanAnd how did this little ponce's visit go? Not well. His tour of Michigan was marked by cancellations and pitiful crowds.
@JustineBateman LOL. Your comparison between these two cities is very significant. Detroit's main industry of automotive production was destroyed and left the town hollowed out. The same thing is happening with Los Angeles. The entertainment business has been steadily drained from this place for at least a decade. LA will soon be hollowed out just like Detroit. It is becoming just sprawling city with no central industry at all.
Calling it Newsom's "swing (and miss) state tour," Politico reported on Wednesday that his "buzzy X posts and vertical videos" from Michigan "this week suggest a slam dunk trip to an early nominating state." But even though Newsom's social media feed racked up "a million views of a 65-hour tour," Politico noted that "the posts may also be the latest sign that social media is not real life." Translation: It was a trip notable mostly for bad execution and embarrassing turnout.
Saying Ann Arbor has a small Democrat donor base is like saying you couldn't spot any tech bros in Palo Alto. "He had a lot of good meetings," Michigan Democratic Party Chair Curtis Hertel told Politico, adding Newsom was a big hit at a local barbecue. I believe this was the barbecue:
Some Michigander politicos pointed out that Newsom canceled a fundraiser with state AG nominee Eli Savit that included the controversial host Kelly Neumann, according to an invite obtained by POLITICO and circulated to some Democrats who didn't realize the event was canceled when Newsom's team was made aware of Neumann's background. Newsom initially planned two competing fundraisers in Ann Arbor on Sunday, one for Savit and one for the state House Democrats. When the latter found out about the Savit fundraiser they pulled out, citing a small Ann Arbor donor base.

Michigan gaybros are you voting for Abdul El-Seyed?
I’m a white gay who’s been out for nearly 30 years, and met and befriended many Muslims, I’ve never felt an ounce of judgment. If anything a sense of camaraderie in that we’re both “othered” in US society.
I used to lived in San Francisco Castro (gay district) and some of the businesses are owned by Muslims in the area. They are the most friendliest people I know.
Yes, vote for him! Not only this guy has all the dreamy qualifications one can ask for, but he is also a vocal, progressive ally with a track record that is endorsed by LGBTQ organizations.
He's the quintessential American dream (boat). An Ivy League graduate, a Rhodes Scholar, plays lacrosse, and he's extremely well-spoken. An epidemiologist? It's time for dumb-dumbs to go bye-bye.
He and Mamdani are FIIIIINE.
I can’t believe some gay men are so islamophobic they’d rather a Republican win 🥲

It's a good movie right in line with the 70s disasters. Definitely worth the watch. I read some trivia of unknown reliability that the blonde who has some fun with Robert Wagner and then gets trapped, was once a love interest in real life with Fannie Flagg. Who knows.

In the mid-1970s, Flagg was in a relationship with American writer Rita Mae Brown, with whom she shared a house in Charlottesville, Virginia.[19][20] The couple met at a party in the Hollywood Hills hosted by Marlo Thomas.[21] According to Brown, Flagg dated and lived with former The Bold and the Beautiful actress Susan Flannery for eight years.

Oh, Deadline had this....
As trans onscreen representation takes a hit in Hollywood, Lilly Wachowski is attempting to make a film with an all-transgender cast… if only the industry will let her.
The Matrix co-auteur recently explained that despite some excitement over the script, financiers “really don’t want to make” her dystopian political thriller The Hunted, which is co-written with partner Mickey Ray Mahoney and budgeted at $10 million, due to the film’s “wall-to-wall trans cast.”
“People like it, but they really don’t want to make it because it’s wall-to-wall trans cast,” said Wachowski on KCRW’s The Business podcast. “I have to get creative and figure out different ways that I can get this in front of people.”

The 1960 presidential election is the most famous instance where Chicago corruption allegedly helped elect a U.S. president, with Mayor Richard J. Daley credited with steering Illinois and its electoral votes to John F. Kennedy through "dirty tricks" and a suspicious 450,000-vote margin in Cook County. While Kennedy won the state by only 8,000 votes, rumors of "voting from the grave" and machine manipulation persist, though some accounts suggest fraud was limited to about 100,000 votes and that Kennedy's strong support among Black voters reduced the need for widespread theft.

The WNBA ‘felt like a lifeline’ for LGBTQ+ fans. Anti-trans attacks are testing that refuge.
Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham’s remarks opposing transgender athletes in women’s sports injected political debate into a league with no openly trans women players.
...Vázquez, who is Black and queer, saw themself reflected in both the WNBA and its fanbase as they attended more games in person. “It felt like a lifeline to queer community at a time when I felt really disconnected from it,” they said. “It was really important to me that I would see intergenerational queer communities, like queer families and older lesbians, and it just felt so special to me in a way that I hadn’t seen in other sports.”
Jen Barnes, founder and CEO of Rough & Tumble, one of the nation’s first women’s sports bars, said Freedom’s and White’s declarations for the draft were “absurd” and misogynistic.
Hultquist, who works for an international LGBTQ+ nonprofit in the Seattle area, said “A very small number of people — probably not actually even fans of the league — are trying to use this opportunity and this issue to divide fans and divide players,”

It is rumored that the reason why Chicago has the 606-- zip codes (which are out of sequence) is because Kennedy and Daley met at the 606 strip club in Chicago to finalize their plans to steal Illinois' electoral votes.

I liked the first Matrix because the special effects were groundbreaking at the time. "Bullet time" was new in that film and made me wow. And I'm a sucker for power fantasy/chosen one plots.
But yeah. The sequels were mostly bad with a few bright spots, like Hugo Weaving's Agent Smith.

Maybe the special effects are why Star Wars, The Matrix, Jurassic Park, and Avatar were such big hits. How many of them would have been a footnote on MST3K without those features? And without the nostalgia filter, how would more modern audiences rate them?

Peak Cultural Enrichment: Muslim-Dominated City Council of Hamtramck, Michigan, Votes to Permit Animal Sacrifice in People's Backyards, Over Objections of Non-Muslim Minority
Hamtramck City Council votes to allow animal sacrifice for religious purposes in the city After months of debate, the city council has voted to allow the practice of animal sacrifice, for religious purposes, in Hamtramck. The decision ultimately came down to a more than 30-year-old U.S. Supreme Court ruling that says cities cannot infringe on religious freedom under the first amendment.This is the media, so they're lying to you (of course). The case they're talking about is the Santaria animal sacrifice case. The court did not find that people had a right to sacrifice animals. It found only that a law specifically passed to block a religious minority (Santaria) from sacrificing animals was a violation of the right to free exercise of religion. In other words, it is perfectly legal to generally ban animal sacrifice, or the slaughter of animals outside of a slaughterhouse and apply that law to religious minorities. The Supreme Court only said you cannot ban something specifically to thwart the practice of a religion. Presumably, slaughtering animals is already illegal in Michigan (except in licensed slaughterhouses) or else they wouldn't have had to pass an ordnance permitting it. So they're lying to you, as usual, giving it the "what's the big deal, the Supreme Court decided this in 1993 already" treatment. But it's a lie. And either these "expert journalists" can't be bothered to look up a major Supreme Court case, or did look it up, and chose to consciously lie to readers to convince them this is No Big Deal.
English speaker fluency level: Beyond native. In fact, there's already work-around for Muslims: They can just pay a butcher to slaughter an animal at the bucher-shop. But they're whining that that's not good enough. They want the Caliphate to exist here in America:
The act of animal sacrifice is often practiced among Muslims during Eid. "Our city is dirty enough. We don't want to make it more dirty," a Hamtramck resident said during a city hall meeting. "Really ridiculous catastrophic resolution," another one said. "If it's not passed then we are ready to take it to courts for religious rights because it is constitution."
Many Muslims pay a butcher to perform the religious sacrifice but for some families, it's just not practical. "A lot of families will typically do it in the confines of their property like in their backyard or their garage and dispose of the animal accordingly," Director of Safe Spaces at Cair Michigan Nour Ali said.
In Hamtramck, the first Muslim-majority city in America, an all-Muslim council just legalized backyard animal sacrifice.

No, that can't be right. I know that Michigan allows hunting, so killing animals is allowed.
Animal sacrifice is always tied to religion, even if it is satanic worship or something. At least as far as I know. What other situation would there be an animal sacrifice? Who would the animal be sacrificed to?
I haven't read the old decision, but it seams like it would be impossible to pass a ban that complies.

They specifically rely on demographic dominance to overwhelm the region before war, and even between wars they try to insert their kind into, or near, Christian villages or valleys and then out breed them so they will have an advantage when the war comes.
What we are seeing in USA is not a new response to new political conditions, it is their same old practice that they have used for centuries, and I am sure they are teaching this in mosques here and at the source countries to encourage people to migrate.

And that is a way that would pass SCOTUS scrutiny. Not a ban on animal sacrifice, which would always have a religious component, but on animal cruelty.
Animal cruelty is something that does not hinge on religious beliefs and so can be banned for all.

So they're just slaughtering animals for food? Same as everyone else on the planet? But they're brown, so let the bigotry, racism, and ignorance flow from there.
No one cares about Larry sharing the deer he processes in his garage, but God forbid Amir slaughters a goat all under the supervision of religious leader (in most cases, you know "halal") in his garage
If you've had Kosher or Halal food then you have had "animal-sacrificed" food. It's not like they're doing some ritual of burning an animal alive for the sake of killing an animal.
Spent 15 months in Iraq and broke bread with community leaders and religious leaders. You think they had the cleanest work stations in there run down facilities? No, but boy did that goat Smack

The problem was it happened at an apartment complex that had a row of parking garages. Children were playing while this large animal was dragged/hanged at the opening of the garage.
Children tend to be protected from the reality that animals are killed for humans to eat. It is terrorizing to allow the slaughter to be done in public. imo

The Left loves its concept known as "Orientalism" -- the notion that westerners like to fetishize and "exoticize" the east (including the Middle East) and apply western standards to it, because we simply can't understand it with our limited western worldview.
But that's exactly what happened when the West encountered the thing called "Islam." Because we int he West had no word nor any concept to characterize the all-encompassing philosophy/lifestyle/military doctrine/economic system/social conformism/personal control of Islam, we just shrugged and called it a "religion," even though the followers of Islam itself did not think of it as a "religion," but simply "the only allowed way of existing."
That Western "orientalist" mischaracterization of Islam as a religion persists to this day.

And the Cross ended animal sacrifice. And 70AD made sure that there wasn't a Temple to do animal sacrifice unless God's Message wasn't clear.
If the Muslim savages feel a need for animal sacrifice, they have their own region of the world to do that in. Slaughter away and deal with God's Wrath from thousands of miles away.
This isn't about animal sacrifice. Its about colonization and conquering.
The depressing part is that the former United States no longer has the ability to slay its dragons, but instead wants to mate with the dragons.

Sacrificing animals for spiritual energy seems pretty malicious to me (and probably the animal).

Meh. If Muslims want to wallow in offal and rats then have at it. Not my circus, not my monkeys.

On primary night, Flanagan showed a promising pivot toward the fall campaign, all but calling Tafoya “MAGA Michele” from the First Avenue stage.
It was pitch perfect.
Minnesota’s fraud is a stain that requires systemic correction. But the scope and reach of Trump’s self-enrichment and ransacking of the federal government continue to obliterate on a daily basis anything that has happened here.
If elected, I’d expect Tafoya to support most of Trump’s actions just as the Republicans in the state’s congressional delegation have done. Unless Tafoya, and Demuth as well, acknowledge and call out Trump’s historic grift, they should get no traction with voters.

That will be ignored by and for Muslims.
The law requires it be clean and humane.
That will be ignored by and for Muslims but used to prohibit Santeria and other religions and pseudo-religions like putative Satanists.
Ultimately, it is a license for Muslims only.

So they're just slaughtering animals for food? Same as everyone else on the planet? But they're brown, so let the bigotry, racism, and ignorance flow from there.
No one cares about Larry sharing the deer he processes in his garage, but God forbid Amir slaughters a goat all under the supervision of religious leader (in most cases, you know "halal") in his garage
If you've had Kosher or Halal food then you have had "animal-sacrificed" food. It's not like they're doing some ritual of burning an animal alive for the sake of killing an animal.
Spent 15 months in Iraq and broke bread with community leaders and religious leaders. You think they had the cleanest work stations in there run down facilities? No, but boy did that goat Smack

there are still some gray areas. You can buy a short barrel for a rifle but you can't put it on without approval, not sure if that has changed. But I can go to some shops and buy a complete SBR now. Texas is on the books not to prosecute possession of a silencer or SBR in Texas but who knows about local government entities. I have only glanced at the ruling so not sure about all the details. I have a friend who was involved in this case that I will see next week. I will get clarification then.

In the pass on that left-wing crazy neighborhood blog, which I knew nothing about that someone put up there about some ritual chicken sacrifice in the park by a religious group I went nuts and I said absolutely not. This is America. We don’t do that you do that in your country and I got actually kicked off the site For that.
Probably being run by a left-wing woman or a Muslim. I don’t know but we can not allow this to happen in our country. We do not kill these animals cruelly it’s bad enough we kill them. We are not gonna put them out there and kill them cruelly. Can you imagine None of these people probably know anything about how to sacrifice this animal and a way that it is not cruel this is gotta stop. This is gotta stop and the only ones that I can do it is us

I think a closer example is Kapparot. Also not a sacrifice, but it’s ritual slaughter of an animal. But … the same people praising Muslim animal sacrifice are taking to the streets with pitchforks every Yom Kippur screaming about the savagery of Orthodox Jews killing some chickens.

I've seen several videos of human prisoners of various military and terrorist groups have their throats slit. The absolute panic and fear in their eyes certainly led me to believe it was tortuous. An animal won't have the fear of anticipation, but once the cutting starts, they're not going to be thrilled.

I love my grandkids. The baby is easy (well, not yesterday as she wanted to be held vs playing). The 5yr old girl tested what is left of my patience today but I held on to my sanity. Grandson was fine and 8yrs.
Fine until parents arrived to change clothes to meet their new teachers (private school, in uniforms).
I asked the grandson nicely to "please go away" as he was messing with the baby I was quickly feeding a bottle. He then announced that I had been "mean" all day. I wanted to say, "Boy, you don't know what mean is" but did not. Later asked for an example and he grinned and said, "many examples." I told him this was baloney. Yes I was not my sizzling self as I am tired, but I was not mean to anyone. GAH
I could easily have some jihad right now if an eeslam or trans or Jehovah Witless knocked on the door. I am done with humans.

So lowering your taxes, deporting criminals, ending multiple wars, shrinking government, reducing fraud, restoring trust in the institutions (as far as what can possibly be salvaged), reducing inflation, restoring energy independence, removing crippling regulation, fast-tracking the development of new grid scale energy sources, de-weaponizing the federal agencies, while not taking a single dollar of payment from the taxpayers (e.g. donating his entire salary to charity) is "self-enrichment" and "ransacking".
Typical Leftist. Instead of accepting any responsibility for your own failed policies, wholesale looting of the treasury, fighting for foreign invaders to continue to slaughter and rape - just make up lies about Trump. This isn't even DARVO because they don't bother with even Denial just jump straight to Attack.

I've faced the fact that elected officials are all on the take, and they're all getting something substantial out of the importation of these animals. Our leaders could not be more corrupt. And it will be our ruination.

Once the old Dodge Main assembly plant in the heart of town closed down in 1980 and was torn down in 1981, Hamtramck began its downward slide. The Michigan State Supreme Court allowing GM to eminent domain parts of Hamtramck and “Poletown” to bulldoze it for a GM plant in the early 1980s further accelerated its fall. As families moved out or older people died off the Muslims moved in.
