They are not hiding it. They are declaring it openly:
“Islam will enter every country, every city, every village, every home — by hook or by crook. Every house will have a Muslim inside. Islam will honor those who submit and humiliate those who disbelieve.”
Does that sound like “interfaith dialogue”? No. That is a battle plan.

What is a color revolution?
DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican
Here is the truth, lifted from my manuscript.
They do not like boiling a color revolution down to a sequence for a few reasons among which:
1) The people participating tend to be siloed (civic engagement isn't the same as vote tabulation)
2) They depend on the veneer that color revolutions are totally organic
But this is the 7-step sequence which I reverse-engineered.

Someone blogging about the AI stuff had a very good explanation that seems very accurate.
When you chat with an LLM, and it combines names, dates, and events in a way that there was no source for and is untrue, it is called a hallucination.
When you chat with an LLM, and it combines names, dates, and events in a way that is true... it's still a hallucination. It just got where you wanted. And you accept it as fact.
There's actually not that much difference between the two, except whether you're knowledgeable enough to already know the answer yourself.

An old joke, from a Bennett Cerf collection I can't put my hands on right now:
A DC social worker was traveling through the hills of Appalachia when, passing through a desolate hollow, she saw a slatternly woman on the porch of a ramshackle cabin, breast-feeding a very large child. Stopping to investigate, she asked how old the child was.
"Ten, I reckon," was the laconic answer.
"Ten?" the shocked woman repeated. "Why, that's much too old! You need to wean him immediately!"
"Ah knows I should," the mother answered, "But ever' time ah tries, he flangs big rocks at me."

He starred in a radio program called The lives of Harry Lime after a movie by the same name, I guess. It’s pretty good, the writing was good, he was a good actor, although I dislike the phony baloney “Mid Atlantic” accent he affected. Most actresses in the 30s and 40s had it too. He was from Wisconsin, fer cryin’ out loud.

Did you have friends and / or family over, Ace? Thanksgiving here at Stately Poppins Manor was low-key, but I ended up making much more food than I needed, so there are plenty of leftovers.
One thing I do is what I call 'turkey packets.' You take some premade dough, shape it into a square, then put your leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, corn, gravy and such in the middle, fold it all up into a square, brush butter on top and bake until golden brown.
Sort of a turkey Hot Pocket, if you will.

The movie to which you refer was "The Third Man". Welles played the bereft of morals Harry Lime in it. The zither piece is the "The Third Man Theme".

Welles took the job to fund a few more days/weeks of filming his independently produced Othello.
Took him 3 years to complete filming.

I shopped for a while at a mall in Virginia right outside DC in the early 1990s, probably where all the Beautiful People shopped for their coffee. They had a HUGE coffee selection at one shop. Very good coffees, all roasted to perfection.
The United States Senate cafeteria serves Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee, or did at one time. I gulped and bought some of that once. It’s quite good, assuming it was the real deal. A million pounds of it are sold every year or whatever, even though only a fraction of that is actually harvested. It’s not a strong flavored coffee, although very clean. It’s the Filet Mignon of Coffee. Tender, but a little lean. Gimme a Porterhouse.

I'd like a report on which brand you bought and if it was any good.
My favorite coffee ever is peaberry, normally coffee beans are twins and in some small percentage the cherrys have only one bean and they're shaped differently and I really liked that coffee but I've only bought one bag. Peaberry coffee is really expensive.
Kona coffee is one of my favorites and King Harv sells it and peaberry beans too.

He did make a point I thought was interesting - that the general failure of Wood was not that he made bad movies (which he did), but rather that the movies he did make were copies of ones he had enjoyed as a child. In that view, while Plan 9 would have been a perfectly acceptable early 1950s schlock SF flick, it's tone was completely out of date by the time it saw release in 1959.

The U.S. trade deficit narrowed more than expected in August as businesses imported fewer goods against the backdrop of higher tariffs, a trend that if sustained could be a potential tailwind for economic growth in the third quarter.The monthly trade deficit decreased by an impressive 24% in August, injecting about $20 billion into the US economy that otherwise would have been sent overseas.

Aspiration Partners, a Marina del Rey green investing firm, collapsed after executives pleaded guilty to using falsified documents to defraud celebrity investors. The company attracted backers including Leonardo DiCaprio, Drake and Clippers owner Steve Ballmer before filing for bankruptcy in March.Amidst its pure financial fraud, Aspiration was also peddling carbon credits, which people are finally starting to realize is a form of fraud too. While my moral compass would never allow me to participate in a scam against celebrities, I do feel a little schadenfreude when I read that these green crusaders got swindled by con men pushing the climate hoax.
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. took down a portion of a $454 million debt deal from Chicago on Wednesday even after boosting yields on the sales-tax bonds that hold higher ratings than the city. The bank was left with roughly $75 million of unsold bonds issued through the city’s Sales Tax Securitization Corp., according to a Chicago spokesperson.Goldman priced the bonds too cheaply for the risk inherent in issuing bonds on behalf of a failing city, and even when the yield was increased in an attempt to draw in more buyers, Goldman still couldn’t sell all the bonds. As a result, Goldman is stuck with about $75 million dollars in bonds to be repaid by the city of Chicago…if they’re ever actually repaid. Investors seem pretty skeptical, otherwise Goldman wouldn’t have had to eat those unmarketable bonds. Chicago’s financial default seems inevitable, as it keeps raising taxes while running off its productive, tax-paying citizens. Investors know what time it is. Goldman just figured it out.

A fire broke out aboard the 8,212 teu ONE Henry Hudson while docked at Yusen Container Terminal in the Port of Los Angeles late Friday evening. The incident prompted a major emergency response involving nearly 200 firefighting personnel and sparked a shelter-in-place order for nearby communities.Predictably, it turns out that the ship’s cargo included containers carrying lithium batteries. “Ship fire contained but remains under close watch at Port of Los Angeles” [LA Daily News – 11/25/2025]
The contents were described as general cargo, but [Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr Mark] Leahey did confirm that shipments of lithium batteries were included.The ship has been hauled out to sea where it remains under close watch “to ensure there are no re-flashes.” For now, this incident is being referred to as an “electrical fire.” I’ve done a little digging, and as best I can tell, this “electrical fire” is only the second incident ever at the Port of LA that required neighboring residents to shelter in place. The previous occurrence was in 2018, due to a chemical spill. Fortunately, the crew was safely evacuated because the ship was in port, but these ship-borne fires involving EVs and lithium batteries are becoming dangerously common. [h/t to Mr. CBD for sending me this story.]

Something that should he taught in schools, or maybe on the news, or press conferences, whatever, the economic follow on effects are WAY more than 800 jobs. It’s practically unbelievable.
Why? Because every business like this uses raw materials. Construction and remodeling of factories, the roads, the trucks that haul materials, the people who build the tires that go on the trucks that haul materials. Bearings to go on those wheels, that spin the tires on the trucks, that haul those supplies. Mechanics to maintain those trucks. Drivers to operate them. Dispatchers. Hell, things start looking up for janitors. Can go all day with this. Iron ore from the Mesabi range, pulpwood from Georgia. Crazy cat ladies from Massachusetts for HR.
There’s a short story called “I, Pencil” about this phenomenon that should be required reading for everyone.

Yep:
Pilot Origins: Launched in 2022 as the Cook County Promise Guaranteed Income Pilot, it was the largest publicly funded effort of its kind in the U.S. at the time. Funded by $42 million from the federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), it provided no-strings-attached monthly payments of $500 to 3,250 low-income households (selected via lottery) from December 2022 through December 2024, with final payments in January 2025.

Permanent Version: The new funding will support ongoing payments targeted at working families facing affordability challenges, though specifics on eligibility, payment amounts, and scale (e.g., number of recipients) are still being finalized by the advisory committee. It's positioned as a response to federal pullbacks on social supports, emphasizing local leadership in addressing basic needs like housing and food.

Grok summary:
The pencil’s humble but powerful point is this: No one person directs or even fully understands this entire process. Yet, through millions of people acting in their own self-interest, guided by prices and voluntary cooperation in a free market (what Adam Smith called the "invisible hand"), a pencil is produced cheaply and reliably — and delivered to a child’s hand for pennies.
It’s one of the most elegant and widely read arguments for economic freedom, spontaneous order, and the marvel of the price system. Even today, economists like Milton Friedman frequently referenced it.

And then once it’s up and running the jobs created by those 800 employees spending money in town. businesses open up which hire people. Who then spend money and new businesses open up for them and so on. Which leads to population growth. Then you need more doctors and more dentists. And they move in and open up shop. It’s a never ending economic circle.
That’s why it’s so devastating when a plant shuts down. All that ancillary economic activity also dies.

NY is one state that is part of the lawsuits preventing FedGov from eliminating illegals from all public benefits. That’s because they have fraudulently allowed illegal immigrants to collect from every welfare system available, then send the bill to the federal taxpayers. We are talking about billions of dollars, and when that music stops, and it will because that’s a condition of these programs, NY will either have a big budget hole or will have to kick out the illegal.

He published "The Pencil: A History of Design and Circumstance" in 1992. It is in my stack of books that I intend to read.
Henry Petroski traces the origins of the pencil back to ancient Greece and Rome, writes factually and charmingly about its development over the centuries and around the world, and shows what the pencil can teach us about engineering and technology today.

I’m Not saying debt is t a problem. It certainly is.
But headlines like this taken out of context are meaningless. Is this the highest ever in nominal or real dollars? What about as a percent of gdp? Was there some quirk in this month that caused it? Lots of factors go into it. And usually for economic data monthly can have short term noise that is smoothed out over the long term.
It’s like saying such and such movie broke a box office record this year. OK but it’s still 30% lower than some movie from the 1980s if adjusted for inflation.

Similar situation with the auto industry. Big3 employees have had benefits of getting special discounts on vehicles not only for themselves, but for friends and family each year.
Now, what happens when you push out thousands of those employees and replace them with outsourced cheap labor retards in India and Mexico...
Those thousands of former employees, their family and their friends are no longer buying your vehicles. Those former employees are also no longer promoting your company and vehicles to anyone and everyone they see, spreading good word of mouth. In fact, they are probably doing the opposite.

And yet, most companies today seem perfectly content to crap on their customers without concern for the long-ter, effects.
With Uber, DoorDash, etc. they are aware that illegals "rent" and legitimate account so that they can make money and they have not stopped it. They get their slave labor without having to admit it. Their customer gets exposed to unvetted/unregistered gig workers who can prey upon you if they choose without consequences - no one in the transaction knows who they are.
As with pretty much every business model our immature tech overlords have disrupted: everyone makes out on it except the customer.

The entire Federal Debt Enchilada rolls over every four (4) years now.
$38 Trillion (or whatever the real number is). When rates go higher, this means more tax revenue must be applied to paying interest on the debt. They can save the markets, or they can save the dollar, they can’t save both.
If they raised rates high enough, the government goes “TILT”. There will likely never be normalized interest rates, because they can’t, and they know it. I could never figure out why anyone would buy a 30 year bond at 0.2% interest rates anyhow. Maybe the return OF your money is more important than the return on your money, still.

The difference between monopoly money ad fiat money is that there is an expectation that the fiat will be paid back. In the case of the USD and []most fiats is that they are based on debt that the government or central bank promise to make good
A bond is just that, we take your money and promise to pay you back more in the future. No one believed Chicago is going to be able to pay that debt back

This is a nicely detailed painting with a lot to pick apart. Or "unpack," as we say today. The textures of the chair and bedside table, the mattress, sheets, and wallpaper, and the women's hair are all fascinating. There's color with the red blanket and the nurse's blonde locks; and the mattress's stripes add interest.
It is odd that the girl in the bed is facing the wall instead of having her head closest to it. Wonder why.
On the table, I suspect that dark bottle might be some laudanum.

The artist doesn't want the patient's face visible to the viewer because the face of a sick person would detract from the rest of composition. The subject of the work is the angel of mercy walking through the doorway. She glows, perfectly poised with q cup of goodness in hand.

The bed is oriented so that the patient faces the wall. The staff can look thru the windows in the door to see if the patient is sleeping. The tallest bottle looks like a wine bottle. The next tallest seems to be a carafe so that's probably water. Small brown bottle is likely laudanum. Nurse/maid is bringing a nice cup of tea.
I suspect the patient is recovering from childbirth.
The reflection on the side of the carafe is kind of fascinating.

Sorry I just finished this years computer based training, they have a whole course on it,
"Subverting the Paradigm And Why You Should Never Do It and Shoot Anyone That Does",
Here's a random photo of Chad, look at that jacka** subverting the paradigm, what should you do in this circumstance?:
A. Notify a security guard that Chad needs Shot.
B. Notify HR that Chad needs Shot.
C. Notify your manager to notify HR that Chad needs shot.
D. All the above***
(*** it's always D all the above dummy, just select all the above, don't be a paradigm subverting chad)
I selected D because I didn't want to take the terrible training again and I respond surprisingly well to Operant Conditioning.

He was a radicalized Muslim hired by the CIA to go after other radicalized Muslims in Afghanistan and then given a pass to enter the US because the Biden administration was ideologically dedicated to importing the world no matter what.
Even Trump's elevated asylum requirements passed him in April, making the asylum system worthless.
Asylum is not permanent residence, and it's time for the world to understand that as they take back their radicals, criminals, and cancer researchers come back to provide cultural enrichment to their home countries.

In a way, they are correct.
We are standing on the outer edge of a very deep rabbit hole. The CIA along with MI6 and other western intel agencies have been building foreign armies for years in countries they are trying to topple. Started during WWII and never ended.
They train guys like the DC assassin to fight groups like the Taliban and often leave them behind when we leave. Unfortunately, some times we bring them here. He is far from the only Afghani psychopath that was allowed into the US after Biden's disastrous end to the Afghan war. Let's hope the Trump administration is smart enough to not let this happen with Ukraine.

Especially because there's who knows how many thousand just like him wandering around the country right now.
The CIA hired native grown serial killers to do things we didn't want to take responsibility for doing ourselves; then they brought thousands of them back to the US homeland, let them go and said "be nice! Don't worry about a thing!"
I'd call that something to be worried about.

No, there is no current 5:1 ratio of self-deportations to forced deportations in the USA as of November 28, 2025.
According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), over 2 million undocumented immigrants have self-deported since the start of the Trump administration in January 2025, while hundreds of thousands have been formally deported through enforcement actions.
Earlier DHS data from October 2025 specified 1.6 million self-deportations and over 527,000 forced deportations, yielding a ratio of about 3:1. By mid-November, updated estimates suggest around 2 million self-deportations and approximately 600,000 forced deportations (based on projections and partial fiscal year data), resulting in a ratio closer to 3.3:1.

Felix Vallotton
Features the nape of Helene Chatenay. Very well done but odd, unrealistic. I'd pass hanging this painting.
---
Felix Vallotton, World Press dot com, Nov. 28, 2013
Blog dedicated to the Swiss master painter Felix Vallotton
Tag Archives: Hélène Chatenay
In part, "Based on his numerous nudes, one can surmise that Félix Vallotton loved women – he loved their beauty, their coquetry, even their flaws. But his affection for women never went beyond the canvas.
For many years, he led an affair with Hélène Chatenay, who was also his model for several of his paintings. Hélène was very dear and loyal to him, even growing close to the Vallotton family. But as Vallotton was devoted to his craft, not to Hélène, he left her for the elderly widow, Gabrielle Rodrigues. Vallotton didn’t even bother trying to hide his true motives for his engagement to Gabrielle Rodrigues – she came from a distinguished family of wealthy art dealers.
When looking at some of works, one can catch a glimpse in his character. Just like in his woodcut Money, converted his romantic affair with a woman into one of financial gain." (More followed.)

Google Books: Wajahat Ali is a New York Times Contributing Op-Ed writer, public speaker, recovering attorney and tired dad of two cute kids.
For starters, he knows Afghan refers to a nationality, not a race. Afghanistan is a diverse country with many different ethnic groups. But he makes it about race for the low info. civil society "democracy" set.
In only about 4 years, +/- 190,000 Afghans - ten to twelve thousand CIA-backed "Zero Units" or "National Strike Units" - and their families were resettled in the U.S. just via Operation Allies Welcome and Operation Enduring Welcome.
Lakanwal, an Afghan American wannabe who worked for a CIA unit & - possibly - displayed mental health issues back in Afghanistan, drives across country, shoots National Guardsmen protecting the U.S. Capitol for what? Twisted logic of loyalty to a prior administration or something else?
We need to know.

The Morning Report — 11/28/25
President Donald Trump announced Thursday that . . . “I must unfortunately tell you that just seconds before I went on, right now I heard that Sarah Beckstrom of West Virginia, one of the guardsmen that we’re talking about, highly respected, young, magnificent person, started service in June of 2023, outstanding in every way, she’s just passed away. She’s no longer with us,” he said:It is now all too painfully obvious, at least to me, that Army Specialist Beckstrom died in the line of duty, in defense of our nation. Or at least what vestiges of it remain after decades of destruction, division and dissolution that have, as Abraham Lincoln once described it, rotted away at its vitals. To say that we are in a state of civil war in my view is incorrect, but we are for sure in a state of siege by an axis of evil representing ideologies and people that are simultaneously foreign and domestic, and who share a rabid fever dream of obtaining absolute power with zero compunction and now a desire to employ the most violent means at their disposal. In terms of enemies and ideologies foreign, President Trump made this announcement:
President Trump says he’ll ‘permanently pause migration’ from all ‘Third World Countries’Well, Amen to all of that. What the President did not say, and for obvious reasons cannot say is that one of the two major things that are non-compatible with Western Civilization is ISLAM. It is and has been for 1,500 years a tyrannical totalitarian death cult Hell bent of the conquest and subjugation of the entire human race by every means necessary. Islam is like a virus. First mass migration to non-muslim countries, especially those in the west where freedoms and civil rights and a notion of multicultural puarlaism allows them to over time corrupt and co-opt those societies without fear of backlash. All one has to do is look at England and France for starters and what each hs done to itself since the end ofWorld War 2 and the dissolution of their respective colonial empires that together encompassed a huge segment of Islamic majority nations. And Islam is now on the verge of completely subsuming their host countries into the Muslim "Ummah" or community. On a positive note, it is certainly a good thing that the President along with Governor Abbott of Texas have moved to make the Muslim Brotherhood a designated terrorist organization. But again, the MB as well as Al Qaeda, ISIS and all the rest as horrid and dangerous as they are, are not the threat. They are merely the symptoms of the real threat and disease which is Islam itself. Those organizations and all the rest exist to spread Islam by force of arms and terrorism.
. . . He will additionally “denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization,” he wrote in the long post.. . “Only REVERSE MIGRATION can fully cure this situation. Other than that, HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL, except those that hate, steal, murder, and destroy everything that America stands for — You won’t be here for long!” the post said. Trump’s comments came following a deadly ambush on two National Guard members near the White House on Wednesday, which investigators say was carried out by Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal. Lakanwal, 29, entered the US in 2021 from Afghanistan in the aftermath of the Biden administration’s withdrawal as part of the “Operation Allies Welcome” program.
Why the Muslim Brotherhood is a Threat to America It gave birth to Hamas, Al-Qaeda and ISIS.As I stated at the outset vis a vis an axis of enemies foreign and domestic, I give you the latter as accurately recognized and identified by an elected official on our side of he aisle.
Look, this is something that happens whenever you have the left-wing politicians making comments like they are making. I mean, when you have someone like Elissa Slotkin, who is encouraging the military to disobey the commander-in-chief, when you have someone like Jon Ossoff, who is saying that having the troops in Washington, D.C., is an embarrassment, when you have someone like Abigail Spanberger, who is saying let your rage fuel you. These are the type of things that lead to this kind of action.” He added, “You know many of are blessed with children and grandchildren and we teach then that words matter and our left-wing politicians need to understand that. This is a result of all of that, as well as them wanting to defund the police, wanting to attack our law enforcement. All of that needs to stop, and it needs to stop now.”Good on Rep Buddy Carter for telling it like it is. The Democrat/Left have been the enemy inside the gate for over 200 years. And they too have embraced a foreign anti Western ideology that was imported into this nation almost a center ago, namely socialism. Its adherents and high priests who preach it have done so from the pulpit of the American classroom and lecture hall. Unless and until that is stopped, we are doomed. Surprise surprise: The younger generations have now glommed onto Socialism, of all things, as something that will be their savior. Will Donald Trump's ascendancy lead us to a rekindling of America as founded, or merely a speed bump on the road to Hell, because if the trends are correct will the rise of Mamdani and his ilk be a one-off or as I fear our future. Having sown mutiny in the ranks, it is ominous that we hear talk like this, since electoral politics being what it is and the Democrat proclivity to steal them on top of the vicissitudes of the electorate to change for the hell of it, this is kind of ominous when, and not if, there is a Democrat or Democrat
The Purpose of the ‘Illegal Orders’ for Military Narrative is Beginning to Take Shape —
“The View” co-host Joy Behar invoked the Nazi Nuremberg trials on Tuesday in her warning to service members who may be following “illegal orders” from the Trump administration.
While discussing the Pentagon’s investigation into the members of Congress featured in the video, Behar recommended the audience watch a recently released film called “Nuremberg,” a movie based on the Allied trials of Nazi leaders after World War II. . . . . . JEn Piss-Hockey Psaki and MSNOW amplify the ‘Dems will prosecute anyone taking part in the Mark Kelly investigation’ intimidation campaign:
Psaki: “What do you think the consequences should be for people who are abiding by following these steps from the Commander In Chief?”
Kirschner: “They’re following unlawful commands from Donald Trump. And if you’re committing offenses and your defense is going to be ‘I was just following orders’ — You know, that didn’t work out so well at Nuremberg.”
When they gain power again, The Left is going to come after all of us with a vengeance. Mark my words. I'll leave it at that. Have a great weekend. And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

I suspect that's impossible at this point. They were given so much money and carte blanche for so long that they've built systems to fund themselves even in the absence of US government funding. Given that they already appear to be working against the long term interests if the country, I would expect them to just become more open about it.
Which isn't to say that we shouldn't stop taxpayer funding, merely a recognition that it'd like be less effective than might be hoped.

For me, Congress agreeing to some words on a piece paper has changed my life. Just days after passing a spending bill that is chock full of socialism, they condemn socialism. And that is it.
Courage. That is what I want Congress to do. I don't want them to waste time on actual legislation, or implementing any of the MAGA agenda, or impeaching rogue judges, or cutting waste and corruption.
I want them to do a nose count and condemn what they just passed, but make no actual plan to not implement more socialism.
And please, go back to taking all of that free time no doing legislation that helps America and use that time on your coup d' etat.

It's remarkable how spoiled people have become. Trump's wins are so numerous, so vast, so...common! And so we take them for granted and lament that we aren't winning even more.
We're like fans pissing and moaning that our team is only up by 49-3 in the 1st quarter - because that's where we are. It's not even halftime yet. Everyone saying 'oh, the Dems will roar back in the midterms' need to take a valium. Next year will be the big 250th for America, and Dems will spend the entire spring and summer shitting on this country. Publicly. Loudly.
Great way to win over voters.

The last part is a total lie, and you make it sound like on Jan 20 of this year, every single person within the US Federal government got a conscience and started to let their 1776 freak fly.
On the 19th, these same people were literally pushing the bank transfer buttons to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars to various Marxist NGOs, but on the afternoon the following day, they all became George Washington.
And I think we know what "vetting" means in Jan 19th language: It means making sure that they are bringing in a manipulatable and violent terrorist as muscle for the Color Revolution.

Except even the clown judges know they are making up law, one thinking he's made a brilliant point that, "if you sneak into a movie theater, you're not still 'seeking admission."
None of them are citing actual law, but only "this is the way we've always done it" (parole); b/c they have to dance away from plain English that "seeking admission " includes even having been here for decades.
Anyway, the intent of the article was to show the "weight" of the Judiciary against Trump.

Most of the US is just now waking up to what the CIA has become and about Color Revolutions. We are way behind the 8 ball but that's largely because we haven't been fighting back. It remains to be seen if we will start now but the situation is not hopeless if we do.

No, the are in a panic, lurching this way and that, wrecking their own cities in their impotent rage. People forget that the end of a war is often the bloodiest part. Even though the issue has been decided, people often go mad when faced with the reality of total defeat.
The bloodiest year of WW I and WW II was the last one. Same with our Civil War. Same with the Spanish Civil War. In all cases the writing was on the wall and the result was inevitable.
The demons are very, very angry at how close they were to winning, and now they are driving their followers to their doom.

See, there is your problem. You have this cute provincial idea that actual people turn out to vote.
Elections are won by the most ballots counted. Doesn't matter where the ballots come from, and it doesn't matter who is actually voted for on the ballots. What does matter, as Stalin liked to point out, it is Who is doing the "counting".
While Congress has been spending its time valiantly agreeing to meaningless words on a piece of paper, they haven't done jack shit about ensuring election integrity.
WOOHOO!! Many of us agree that socialism sucks, while we are literally deploying and monetarily supporting socialism!!
Who cares about elections? As long as I survive long enough to get fully vested in the Congressional Pension and Benefits Plan.

No, I don't. I live in Michigan and know that Slotkin stole her House seat and the Senate one as well.
But I also know that the DoJ is digging into this and right now the Secretary of State is claiming that voter rolls are sacrosanct while also giving them to non-profits.
I also know that in less than a year, the FBI will come clean about Whitmer knowing about the fednapping case so that it will cause maximum damage. Can't let that out now, because the timing doesn't work. Have to wait until the candidates are set for the general, so look for it in September.

I rate conspiracy theories by likelihood. My #1 for the JFK hit is that ex-CIA head Allen Dulles gave the order in an off-the-books operation. JFK had fired CIA director Dulles over the Bay of Pigs fiasco and other sins.
Dulles had people handling Lee Harvey and Marina. They got him the job at the Texas Book Depository before he arrived in Dallas. Easy to have a real shooter take the shots from the Depository and frame Oswald for it.
History doesn't repeat but it can rhyme. Dulles wanted a war over Cuba but was thwarted by JFK. LBJ gave him Vietnam.

One thing I do not like (one of many) is this tendency to pretend there was once a free and honest media. I went to college in the 70s; student papers were far left then. Remember, many colleges saw conservative students - in the 80s - start independent papers to get a voice. IIRC, Laura Ingraham and Dinesh DeSouza were among the prominent ones who did.

They are threatening serving military members with future punishment for following lawful orders. These people are incredibly stupid. Still dangerous, but stupid.
We know this was botched because the media did no prep for it. They were stunned, just like everyone else. That's not how things always used to work, which shows that it was not run out of Obama's central HQ. Probably Slotkin dreamed it up herself.
We're already seeing the results: gullible GIs taking them at their word, and guess what? The Seditious 6 will do nothing to save them. I doubt they'll even get a Go Fund Me. So instead of inspiring troops, it will show them that Dems want to use them as crash dummies.

I'm betting only a fraction of the narco-terrorist boats are being interdicted. It's a big ocean. The boats are small. And no amount of ISR is going to find all of them.
So, yea, the drug shipments will likely continue.

Reuben Gallego said he was asked to participate in the video but he didn't get the script in time. I think the reason it might seem a bit sloppy is that a lot more people are now waking up to what is going on and are on the lookout for this stuff.

I've changed my mind about the death penalty several times over the years. When I was young I was for it, but later on came to distrust state power, and became ambivalent.
Now I'm for it, and its swift application. We've become very materialist thinking that this world is all that matters. But the fact is that we will be dead much longer than we are alive, and death as a punishment is nothing compared to eternal torment. Life in prison is inhumane, and it actually make repentance harder because the criminal thinks that maybe he'll get sprung, or avoids dealing with the implication. Knowing you are going to die tomorrow forces that internal discussion.

There was still some coordination, but it was very sloppy, and demonstrates that the command and control for the conspiracy has broken down. It will further erode as Antifa's links are exposed and supporting organizations are investigated/rolled up.

They are actually brilliant tacticians.
Go flood a country with 50 million foreign invaders. Convince American women to give up on being mothers and make them work 40-60 hours a week alongside marginally employed men, that way the entire productive domestic population is dedicating their lives into providing free food, clothing, medicine, housing, transportation, leisure and "walking around" money to these adult invaders.
The invaders out-breed, out-consume, and will dramatically boost the ballot counts for the Enemy. They have all of the free time and resources to do whatever evil their darknend hearts desire, and they get full 100% protection by the Demonic Party's legal apparatus.

It's powerful in certain demos, declining demos.
So, it creates this oxymoronic reality where it's much less powerful overall but much more powerful with certain people.

Sadly, it'll have to go through several layers of appeals because the judiciary is among the freaks.

If they were that powerful, Harris would be president and MSNBC would still exist. All the legacy media is in turmoil, shedding staff etc.
That is one thing that irritated the heck out of me about Rush Limbaugh and the copy-cats that he has spawned since then: Play lots of controversial audio clips from legacy media that no one else cares about or listens to.
I'm looking at the ratings numbers of MSNBC et al and its in the tens or hundreds of thousands, where Rush's show was in the 5-8 million range. He boosted the hell out of them, and in return, these seditious retards would boost Rush's program by rage stroking their own emotionally unstable NPC drones.

. . . He will additionally “denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization,” he wrote in the long post.. .
This is certainly a welcome change from the usual reaction after a jihadi goes postal where nothing changes and the only concern is how to prevent a backlash against the Muslim community.
Now I'm waiting on a lefty judge somewhere to confirm the fact that any foreigner anywhere has the same human right to immigrate and live here as a natural born American citizen because anything else is discrimination or racial/ethnic/religious profiling.

Daily Tech News 28 November 2025
Top Story
- OpenAI has described its forthcoming AI device. (Tech Crunch) (archive site)
Not announced. Not previewed. Described:When people see it, they say, "that's it?... It's so simple."
Not so much of a description as a fart.
It's expected to be a phone, but without a screen, making it useless to everyone who already has a phone, which is... Everyone.
Also, don't look at the picture.
- Why can't ChatGPT tell the time? (The Verge) (archive site)
Because it doesn't know anything.
Tech News
- AWS is adding "DNS resilience" to its notoriously unstable US-East-1 region. (The Register)
This won't make the datacenter any more reliable, it will just make it easier for customers to switch over to somewhere else the next time it goes down.
- Looking for a larger, faster hard drive for your 2013-era laptop? SSSTC may have what you need. (WCCFTech)
It's an enterprise SSD, but it's just 7mm tall, uses a standard SATA interface, and stores up to 15TB.
Price not mentioned but probably horrifying.
- Unless it doesn't: Intel's Nova Lake lineup next year will include models with dual CPU chiplets and dual cache chiplets after all. (WCCFTech)
With a total of up to 52 cores and 288MB of cache.
Which is kind of a lot.
Nominal power consumption for the high-end model is 150W, but this is Intel so expect it to post significantly higher numbers in the real world.
- Nvidia then: If you want to buy our GPU chips you have to buy the RAM from us too, at our marked-up prices.
Nvidia now: Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown. (Tom's Hardware)
Nvidia previously forced the companies that make its graphics cards to also buy memory through them, even though Nvidia doesn't make memory chips.
Now that memory chips have become expensive and hard to find, the board makers have been cut loose to sink or... Well, just to sink really.
- As the UK tightens its grip on free speech, it has turned its steely idiot cross-eyed gaze on VPNs. (The Verge) (archive site)
Just as everyone predicted.
It won't work. There are too many VPNs, they're too easy to create, and too easy to use. The Great Firewall of China leaks like a sieve, so the UK doesn't stand a chance.
Musical Interlude
Song is Golden from the movie KPop Demon Hunters, which is about a KPop (Korean pop music) group that, uh, hunts demons.

What a weird and disgusting rabbit hole did I just fali down. I need brain bleach.
In Jan 2020 it seems the Chicago IWW posted furry fetish pr0n to fight the Nazis. Image is of a fat skunk with ginormous nads literally crushing a cat in a top hat reaching for his bag of money. And the IWW logo is plastered on one of the nads.
The post was quickly deleted but there is a chance that Bernie Sanders saw it.
I need the mental floss also.

After a pleasant T-Day, I slept okay. Stirling the Evil Black Kitten of War and Pestilence (he has reclaimed his youthful title) came leaping across me about an hour ago, but I managed to ignore him and doze a while longer. Now, coffee; shortly, slopping the feline hogs.

Accomack, if you meant me: The house agent in Owensboro, KY, has been sending me listings. Recently I've seen two I would really want to go see, if I were there.
The current plan is after New Year's, to see about an apartment there and about having my stuff put in storage. Rent for a time while I see if I do like it there, or if I'd prefer Indiana (Terre Haute has nice-looking houses). I'm going to have to tell Linda about this -- but I'm waiting until after her birthday, which is Monday. I doubt she will be in favor of it.

Been reading too many articles and watching too many videos of warnings that GPU prices are definitely going back up next year.
The only contrarian opinion I’ve seen is from JayzTwoCents on YT who claimed that because GPUs use GDDR6/7 that they shouldn’t be affected like DDR5 going up 200%.
But I’m skeptical and the consensus is the opposite, especially when I read an article in Tom’s Hardware where the rumour is that AMD is definitely raising prices by at least 10% on board partners, PowerColor pretty much confirmed it.
So I bought a PowerColor Hellhound 9070 XT for $629 and I’m sure I’ll be happy with it for several years to come.
It was either that or a RTX 5070 Ti for $809 and I don’t see paying that much extra for very similar performance except in Ray Tracing and having no DLSS or CUDA cores.

I think you'd be interested in this as it relates to navigation and all that. "Parallel transport" is all about what you mean by "straight lines" in a curved space. On the surface of the sphere, a curved 2D space, the geodesics are great circles. A geodesic is, like a straight line in flat space, the shortest distance between two points. And note that is closed. If you keep going "dead straight", parallel transporting yourself on the surface, you get back to where you started.
Now, on the surface of an ellipsoid, a surprising result is those geodesics are not generally closed. The earth, due to rotation, is really more close to an ellipsoid than a perfect sphere.

For example, if I started here and went to see Pixy, and followed the true ellipsoidal geodesic, I take the shortest possible path to Pixy. However, were I bound to continue on that straight line, when I went around the earth a full 360 degrees of longitude, I'd miss getting home exactly by around a mile or two, and that distance would grow with each loop.
Going on on and on, my path would fill a band a few degrees wider that the latitude difference between here and Pixy. I would densely cover ever point in that band, but I would never come back exactly to my starting point. I'd get arbitrarily close, but never reach it exactly. The geodesic would condemn me to wander the surface of the earth, confined to that band, forever.

My brother cooked dinner last night.
He loves to cook, and found some recipe on TikTok or somewhere to make baked turkey quarters (wings and flats) with some spices, and peppers & onions. It tasted pretty good but the skin was soggy as opposed to crispy, which isn’t terrible but certainly not expected from turkey.
His wife turned her nose up at it, ate leftover ham instead, because she didn’t like the way it looked.
Pissed him right off, though, after he’d already cooked a bunch of stuff to bring to her family’s dinner and then he came home and cooked for us.
I ate it right up, along with the chicken & dumplings and collards he’d already made.
I’ll be eating the leftovers tonight.
The only thing I really missed was Mom’s deviled eggs and homemade Mac & Cheese.

My Thanksgiving meal was a one inch thick ribeye.
Cooked over charcoal.
Illuminated by a headlamp.
While sitting at a picnic table.
In a grove of massive white pine trees listening to the sound of the wind in their branches under a moonlit sky.
Next to a roaring fire in 27 degree weather.
In a National Park that I had pretty much to myself.
It was so tender I could cut it with the serrated side of a metal spork.
Perhaps the most delicious steak I've ever eaten.
I have so much to be thankful for.

When you chat with an LLM, and it combines names, dates, and events in a way that is true... it's still a hallucination. It just got where you wanted. And you accept it as fact.
There's actually not that much difference between the two, except whether you're knowledgeable enough to already know the answer yourself.

Could DJT order the mass cancellation of security clearances for all CIA employees? Cancel their clearance - they cannot work there, period. Send in some trusted military intelligence types to root through all their files. If some mook refuses to give up the password, put a gun to his head, and let him know his suicide is imminent unless he relents.

Years ago my mother made some for her NY son-in-law (my husband). She did not tell others in the family, often 50 people. Buffet style Thanksgiving.
One uncle ate the turnips and told her his wife, her sister, "I think the mashed potatoes have gone off."
Hope you all had a wonderful day. Prayers for those who are missing someone at their table this year. Ours was immediate family only this year, which I am thankful for.

Both of us were engineering students, so a LOT of our "spare" time was spent studying and doing homework. Oftentimes there wasn't enough time to prepare a meal, and the time saved in popping a pre-made dinner in the oven was worth it some days. And sometimes a TV dinner was cheaper than buying fr3sh food and preparing meals from scratch.
Of course, back then there weren't nearly as many fast food (or even budget restaurant) options as there are today. But there is no shame in eat8ng TV dinners. Some of the pre-made stuff you can pick up in the local groceries these days is really good!

The cool thing about Salisbury Steak is that it was originally medicinal in value. It was created by some Dr. around the US Civil War to treat injured soldiers.
PETA would probably be picketing Dr. Salisbury's house if he were alive today. He was one of those physicians who used to really push red meat as a health food.

You’ve got to make sure the turkey is at room temperature before you deep fry them so leave them out for a few hours before hand..
Do not overfill the pot and keep the temp around 350 for a nice rolling boil.
Make sure it’s on the hook-stand really well.
Ease it in the pot slow & steady.
If you screw any of that up you’re in for a bad time.

Philip K. Dick saw it. So did Jesus.

In 1974, Philip K. Dick came home to find his house ransacked.
Files opened. Papers scattered. Evidence of systematic search.
His first thought wasn’t anger.
It wasn’t violation.
It was relief.
“Thank God I’m not crazy. I have real enemies.”
The FBI file he later obtained proved it. The CIA had opened his mail. His neighbors recorded license plates of every visitor. The harassment was real.
The Machine was watching.
But that’s not what shattered his reality. That came three months earlier. When something else made contact. ... [much more]

If you can, put the turkey in the fryer before adding oil to make sure it doesn't overflow the container, then take the bird out to bring oil up to temperature. Also, turn the flame off for the thirty seconds it takes to immerse the bird.

The pot we used was pretty big (use it to cook collard greens in before the turkey) so we’d just fill it up half way. Even with a 10 or 12 pound turkey it never got high enough.
My Dad started deep frying them in the 90s when they were all the rage. Never screwed up with the oil but overcooked a few over that time.
He also did a few on the rotisserie which turned out wonderful.
There’s also an infrared turkey fryer we got that he used one time just so he wouldn’t have to buy all of the peanut oil to use one time. That came out ok, not as juicy as oil fried but still a good bird. Mom didn’t like it as much so he never used it again.

Pot pie comes from a miscommunication between German and English. The original term is "Bot boi". It's a German dish that came over with the Pa Dutch (Germans). Someone started calling it Pot Pie, and it stuck. But, it's a think chicken stew with homemade dough noodles, potatoes, etc.

I knew that from being born and raised there. Moved away permanently after graduating college. Used to go back once or twice a year to visit family during Independence Day and Christmas. But since grandparents all passed away by 2010 and mom retired to Arizona in 2015, I have not been back.
My old quiet Polish neighborhood I grew up in on the South Side near Midway Airport slowly was changed to Mexican and taken over by gangs by the late 1990s, early 2000s. I would have described the neighborhood I grew up in in the 1980s as out of "The Wonder Years". By the early 2000s, it became unrecognizable from those days.

We've got a hematology appointment for her tomorrow, and they're gonna try some other things to keep her platelets up. The problem is the immune suppression necessary right now.

They send them out every second week. The one in front of me covers Dec. 2 to 14. The flyer is on line at their website, too. A lot of their tools and stuff are Chinesium, alla samey Harbor Freight, but they have a surplus department, mostly industrial, rarely military, where deals can be found. I bought some windshield wiper blades for 3.99 each, which is cheap by today's standards.
If you ever find something in their only flyer that you simply must have, let me know, and I can snag it, bring it to AZ with me, and mail it to you from there.

I got into the Mercator map projection sort of tangentially today -- I can really go off on tangents -- and I'm ashamed that I didn't realized the meaning of the basic properties of that projection. It's conformal, preserving angles -- the vertical scale factor is chosen such that local angles are preserved. That means it's ideal for rhumb ling, constant compass bearing navigation.
On the flat map, you connect point A to point B with straight line, and that's the path of constant compass bearing. It's not the shortest path geodesic (great circle ) between A and B, but it's damned simple. All this time, and that simple property hadn't registered.

Presumably, compass bearings have to be corrected for declination for that to work?

Thanksgiving 2008.
One month after marriage ended living in a cottage/dump with no central heating.
Thanksgiving dinner was microwave, turkey and cheese lean pockets.
Wife is sleeping on the couch because i'm p***** off that we have a dead stovetop, dead wall oven and a dead refrigerator in which all the food that I was going to make for thanksgiving rotted.
Somehow I am the bad guy. As usual.
Posted by: Rastus Porkmo at November 28, 2025 02:06 AM (o7u1E)
Yes indeed, and that was a practical problem. You had to know longitude as well as latitude to correct to true north.
For short distances, the rhumb line, constant bearing path is okay, but for long haul voyages, the difference between a true geodesic and the rhumb line path could be 10 - 13%. So, long haul sailing needed to follow geodesics, where time was money for trade routes and such.
They basically approximated the geodesic with precomputed way points -- which were "straight" rhumb line segments between precomputed points on the great circle. For example, the rhumb line path from Britain to Sydney (steering around the continents of course), was 2000 miles longer than the geodesic, which was over a week in sailing time.
Turns about 6 way points were usually sufficient for most purposes, with 10 at most required.

My family drove up to Tacoma last night to be with my in-laws. I brought appetizers: homemade capicola, breakfast sausage, and salami cotto. The turkey was very late, so I was happy all the kids had something to eat in the meantime. My wife brought the stuffing, cranberry sauce, a gorgeous salad with feta and hand-picked walnuts (which the kids have been shelling for a month), and a bunch of other things. I also brought some recipes and ingredients to play bartender for the evening.
I feel really blessed to be a part of this family, now for seventeen years. It's great to see the nephews and niece. We're very thankful and proud of how the teens and near-teens---our own and the rest---are growing towards adulthood.

Another complication is the earth isn't a perfect sphere, and the next order approximation is the oblate spheroid, a 2-axis polar ellipsoid. The geodesics there are not the same. For paths between +/- 40 deg latitude, the difference is negligible, well within what was the normal errors of the day.
But closer to the poles, it did become more significant. The great "heroic" polar explorers did use ellipsoidal paths there. And some of the big line, trying to set speed records and stuff, did try to use the ellipsoidal paths, trying to shave off as much time as they could.
Those ellipsoidal calculations are much more messy mathematically, but they worked it out. Turns out there's a "conservation law" for the 2-axis ellipsoid that makes it simpler, and you can see that as sort of a constant angular momentum thing (a mathematical analog, of course, not any real angular momentum).

Nowadays, with computers and GPS and other fancy systems, if you want, you can follow a geodesic on the surface of the earth exactly, essentially doing Riemannian parallel transport on the fly, turning your bearing continuously as you go.

Off we went, on our Quest For Gold. Dad turned down the muddy roads, this way and that, chasing the rainbow's end. Mom was excited, too, telling us how she would trick the leprechaun into looking away while we grabbed his big pot of gold.

The far-left Nation magazine used the Thanksgiving holiday to recast the Pilgrims and Puritans as “radical Protestant doomsday groups” whose “cultish” ideology, it argues, “became the foundation of American culture,” urging Americans to treat the day as “as good a time as any to begin coming to terms with the country’s radical cultish origins.”

Trivia I haven't bothered to check: The interracial kiss between William Shatner and Nichelle Nichols might have been the first on network TV *between black and white.* But there had been an earlier one, with an Asian woman and a white man -- and I believe it was France Nuyen and Robert Culp (whom she later married) a year or two before the Trek scene, on I Spy.

The far-left Nation magazine used the Thanksgiving holiday to recast the Pilgrims and Puritans as “radical Protestant doomsday groups” whose “cultish” ideology, it argues, “became the foundation of American culture,” urging Americans to treat the day as “as good a time as any to begin coming to terms with the country’s radical cultish origins.”

Epimenides.
Right. The supposed paradox is that Epimenides (a Cretan) claims "All Cretans are liars." If he's lying, then he's telling the truth and vice versa. It's only a paradox if liars are assumed to never tell the truth. Even so, it's easily resolved if a) at least one Cretan is not a liar and b) Epi is in fact lying.

It is called EMDR, and it is used with traditional talk therapy.
The therapists are specially trained, and you have to know to look or ask if they are certified in EMDR.
It is an amazing thing and is very effective.

They just don't get it, do they? The original Mustang was a very affordable car, around the $3000 mark, IIRC. You could be stylin' for about the same money as driving a plain-Jane four-door sedan. They built and sold six-cylinder Mustangs, too.
I suppose Ford would not license them the rights to the name, if they made it more affordable than their current Mustang offerings.

There are app 14 million green card holders in the USA according to USCIS.
Each green card is 10 years and then renewed, etc.
The last time I went to renew mine the cost was $475.
That hardly covers the cost of the biometrics, photo, staffing, etc.
imo, There is no way the gov can monitor/account for even the legal residents that don't bother to renew, let alone visitors, visa overstays, illegals.

I suggested earlier: offer a bounty, in the form of a green card, to muslims who rat out jihadis in their midst. With the understanding, that if they in turn, get credibly exposed as jihadi themselves, the green card goes away, and their passage to Shitcanistan is booked.

The lamb turned out GREAT. Almost anything cooked low and slow in a crockpot is good. The turkey was great, too - covering it in butter (with garlic and herbs in it) and bacon IS a bit of a no-brainer.
Gonna say, though, the otters....

As a Christian, I love Christmas and Easter, but to be honest, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday of all. Not overly patriotic or religious, so everyone can participate. People generally do the same thing all over the country, and an attitude of gratitude cuts across religious, cultural and political boundaries.
Also, my birthday is either Thanksgiving week or Thanksgiving Day, depending on the year. So yeah, this is my favorite holiday.

It's my favorite, too, for the same reasons. And, no one feels like they need to get gifts for anyone--people stress about that so much at Christmas.

Now that sounds like a meal to give thanks for, and with.
As I said earlier today, I'm thankful for my health and my swift recovery from the minor surgery in July; for being able to retire comfortably in April; and for Miss Linda's health and companionship, and that of the cats, Stirling and Dagny.
I'm also happy that my oldest buddy, who lives in Clearwater, FL, and his wife are doing well. I'll give them a call tomorrow, after their family turmoil dies down.

I miss making everyone a mash on Christmas when I had my boarding facility. It smelled so good with bran, apples, carrots, molasses, all the stuff. And the nickers! I knew it was because they wanted food, but I preferred pretending it was for me.
Of course the next morning was bucket scrubbing, but everyone deserved a good Christmas dinner.

So to summarize, the script uses Figlet and lolcat to display a randomly selected phrase with a randomly selected figlet font, every time you open a terminal, you can turn it off and on by setting an environment variable, and it will automatically turn off if you are in tmux or the working directory is my coding directory.
Why'd I do this?

But when I was in the Balkans in 2021, I routinely saw "turkey herders" along the side of the road in Albania and Montenegro. They'd have a large shepard's crook, a flock of birds, and they'd move their herd along the roadside, with the birds eating bugs and seeds, and occasionally someone driving on the road would pull over and buy one on the spot.

A correspondent, writing from Tristan d’Acunha, in September, gives an account of his adventures in taking penguins’ eggs:
"Fancy what work, to stand amid hundreds of the birds, all screaming round you, so as almost to deafen you, tumbling them here and there, and picking up their eggs as fast as you can gather them! It is really amusing sport. I must remind you the kicking them over with soft moccasins does not hurt them in the least, and the next day they will have just as many eggs."

An interesting and well-researched investigative report appeared the other day in the highly reliable Paco World News Daily (PWND), which exposed Mazuma’s role in providing substantial support to communist front organization Penguin Facts. For years, Mazuma has been attempting to corner the market on anchovies, and the eradication of penguins, his main rival in the harvesting of this fish, is a goal which Penguin Facts is assisting him in reaching. So, ironically, the comrades at Penguin Facts are serving as the running dogs of Mazuma’s peculiar form of capitalism. As the saying goes, “follow the money”.

Ironically I think it was the WoT that pushed the CIA into becoming a completely anti-American org. Not that there weren't issues before then but you can find clear examples of them acting on America's behalf.
But during the WoT the left decided that trying to win the war was rayciss and wrong and instead America needed to lose. And one of the more important orgs to do that was the CIA...
And the funny part of all this, very few people would have believed in 2001 that the US could lose a war to a bunch of goatf*ckers and yet here we are.

I have watched NFL RedZone since its inception. Prior to this year, it was 100% commercial free football. It ruined me for watching any football, NFL or college, in real time. The commercials are ridiculous.
Change possession, commercial. Score, commercial. Come back for kickoff and possession change, then go to commercial. Any timeout, commercial. It's even worse than it used to be because most commercials are annoyingly woke and stupid now as well.
This is the only time I'll watch live football. It's been NFL Redzone or watch DVR'd games and FF through commercials for me for at least the past decade.

Only 2 tupperware containers of turkey left (so one more dinner). I should have made another 5lbs if turkey if I knew my boys (and our bachelor guest) where gonna get 4th and 5ths of it. I do have enough sides for 2 meals, so there's that.
One year, I should literally just make turkey, homemade gravy, and cran sauce (which is also almost gone - it was my favorite thing I made). Make 30 lbs of turkey and probably still have the 7 folks happy...
Thank you Amazon for having the 20lber so cheap. Small one is still in my freezer for a different time.

Dangerous, I know.
But I think about Ozempic and weight loss etc and I think, ya know, the body does have a preference on where to store fat, right? It's not the same preference, it changes with each individual. So Sons bodies prefer here, others there.
Then I think know women.
Some women have bodies that prefer storing fat in the middle, some in the ass, some in the...
Then I think, instead of a weight "loss" drug how about a drug that prompts a woman's body to shift fat storage into her boobs? Probably wouldn't be difficult. Instead of trying to flip a switch off or on, which sounds like it carries many risks, it's a simple redirect. Plus it kills two birds with one stone. Slimmer women with bigger boobah.

For those that missed it:
Husband should have been able to Uber all last night; Thanksgiving Eve does really good business. He had planned to bag $400-500 for the night, working until 4 am.
He'd only netted $100 so far when a drunk lady in her 40s got in his car. She proceeded to throw up on the outside and inside of our car. And peed in the back passenger seat. And she didn't say anything! He very randomly found out.
He took pics and reported it to Uber. She'll have an $80 fine added to her tab. Hubby needs to get it professionally detailed, but of course nothing is open on Thanksgiving, even the 24 hour places. So probably earliest can get it detailed is Friday. That's another night of business lost.
So frustrating! He's too mad to sleep. This is the second time someone's thrown up in the car and ruined his night. We really need to invest in waterproof seat covers methinks!

Don't know about roasting root vegetables like turnips and parsnips. Try peeling and slicing parsnips, simmering for 10 min, adding twice the amount of sliced carrots, covering and simmering until all are tender, liquid is almost gone and parsnips are falling apart. Add salt, butter and pepper and stir. You will have carrots coated with parsnip fluff.
Eat turnips raw. Especially the little sweet spring turnips.

Israel tried them too...Kibbutzim.
The failure of the kibbutzim correlates nicely with the rise of the current technological/agricultural/manufacturing powerhouse that is today's Israel.

shared a meal of thanksgiving with the Native
Americans/Indians. However, it was not the first thanksgiving by Europeans to occur in the New World.
If you ever visit St. Augustine, Florida (the oldest inhabited city in the United States), you will find a shrine dedicated to Our Lady of La Leche outside the city near the coast...The place
commemorates the spot where the Spanish explorers/settlers landed after arriving at the bay on August 28, 1565, the feast of St. Augustine. Soon after landfall, the Spanish, who had brought a priest with them, celebrated a Mass of
Thanksgiving. They later enjoyed a meal of thanksgiving
with the local Native Americans."

A substantial portion of its population came from socialist or socialist lite shitholes and find big government as Pez dispenser to their liking.

The Afghan suspected in carrying out the terror ambush on two National Guard troops in Washington DC was once part of a CIA-backed strike force with a reputation for ruthlessness. Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, was a member of the so-called “Zero Units”, one of Afghanistan’s elite counterterrorism arms. -NYP

We vow to build a future that echoes their sacrifice. Above all, we offer our endless gratitude to Almighty God for His love, grace, and infinite blessings.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim Thursday, November 27, 2025, as a National Day of Thanksgiving.

Dangerous, I know.
But I think about Ozempic and weight loss etc and I think, ya know, the body does have a preference on where to store fat, right? It's not the same preference, it changes with each individual. So Sons bodies prefer here, others there.
Then I think know women.
Some women have bodies that prefer storing fat in the middle, some in the ass, some in the...
Then I think, instead of a weight "loss" drug how about a drug that prompts a woman's body to shift fat storage into her boobs? Probably wouldn't be difficult. Instead of trying to flip a switch off or on, which sounds like it carries many risks, it's a simple redirect. Plus it kills two birds with one stone. Slimmer women with bigger boobah.

Trump Blasts Biden For Allowing In Unvetted Afghan Terrorists, Orders a Vetting of Biden's Afghans
I don't like posting this sort of stuff on Thanksgiving, but I missed the story yesterday, as I was out for a big chunk of the late afternoon.
After this, I'll just post Thanksgiving-themed open threads. I know JJ covered this. I'll just re-cover it. The left had the predictable response to one of Biden's unvetted Afghan terrorists being let through the open border. You'll never see this coming -- it was Trump's fault, for posting National Guardsmen in DC. Trump forced Biden's terrorist to shoot wo brand-new Guardsmen, you see. He provoked the terrorist by providing law and order.[I]nstead of directing outrage toward the assailant, prominent progressive voices turned their fire on Trump -- claiming the Guardsmen were in harm's way only because the administration sent them into the city. New Yorker writer Jane Mayer insisted the troops "never should have been deployed," claiming she had watched them "pick up trash" and suggesting their presence was merely "for political show." Progressive YouTuber Keith Edwards went further, accusing Trump of an "illegal deployment" and asserting that the Guardsmen "would be fine" were it not for the president's decision to reinforce the capital. Others leaned into the same narrative. Liberal commentator Wajahat Ali declared the National Guard "should never have been deployed in Washington, DC," while additional activists claimed Trump would now "twist this tragedy" into justification for strengthening law-and-order measures nationwide.The presence of the two young. fresh-from-bootcamp Guardsmen provoked the Cultural Enrichment Officer, you see. Didn't you know that. racists?
The two West Virginia National Guard members critically wounded in Wednesday's ambush near the Farragut West Metro Station have now been identified as Andrew Wolfe and Sarah Beckstrom -- young soldiers who had taken their oaths less than a day before gunfire erupted on a downtown Washington sidewalk. Wolfe, 22, was identified first after Musselman High School in Inwood released a statement confirming the alumnus was one of the soldiers struck. The school said the community was "deeply saddened" and urged residents to pray for him. Wolfe was rushed into surgery and remains in critical condition.Trump blamed the shambling corpse Biden and his maniacal determination to import all of the criminals, rapists, and terrorists of the Third World into the US to punish us for having succeeded while the Third World failed.
In an address to the nation Wednesday, President Trump blamed Joe Biden's Afghan parole program for the brutal ambush of two National Guard soldiers in downtown Washington, saying the shooting was a direct result of the previous administration's decision to fly tens of thousands of unvetted evacuees into the country. Trump said DHS officials had already told him the suspect taken into custody was an Afghan national who arrived during Biden's chaotic 2021 withdrawal. "He was flown in by the Biden administration in September 2021 on those infamous flights everybody remembers," Trump said from Palm Beach. He called Afghanistan "a hellhole on Earth" and said Biden "extended this man's status under legislation he signed -- a disastrous president, the worst in the history of our country." Trump said the attack "shows the single greatest national security threat facing our nation," arguing that Biden's policies brought in "20 million unknown and unvetted foreigners" without regard for the consequences. He pledged to re-examine every Afghan brought in under Biden and remove anyone who has no legal right to be in the country. "If they can't love our country, we don't want them," he said. Law-enforcement sources said the suspect -- 29-year-old Rahmanullah Lakanwal -- arrived under Operation Allies Welcome, the Biden-era resettlement program that made roughly 90,000 Afghans eligible for special visas and placed many of them in cities nationwide. Lakanwal was sent to Bellingham, Washington, one of the designated hubs for Afghan refugees. About 800 were resettled statewide in 2022, according to the Immigrant & Refugee Health Alliance. Sources say Lakanwal overstayed his visa and was in the country illegally when he allegedly staged Wednesday's attack.
Biden flooded America with unvetted Afghan evacuees.

He ginned up hatred against the National Guardsmen, just like they ginned up hatred against ICE and Border Patrol -- and then attacks went up on our border personnel by over 1000%. They knew the same would happen with the Guard, and they either didn't care, or actively hoped their left-wing allies would "step up" their "resistance."
"You've got blood on your hands": Mark Kelly ripped for reaction to D.C. Guard shooting
... Critics pointed out that Kelly's remarks came less than two weeks after he, Rep. Elissa Slotkin, Sen. Tammy Duckworth, and Sen. Richard Blumenthal rolled out a video and legislative package aimed at blocking Trump's authority to deploy the National Guard. The group's "No Troops in Our Streets Act," announced November 13, was framed as an effort to constrain the administration's ability to send Guard units into troubled areas--while the accompanying public messaging warned service members about following what Democrats described as "unlawful" orders.
Trump has responded by ordering an additional 500 Guardsmen to back up the police in DC.
That tone has been simmering for days, and Wednesday's shooting poured gasoline on the fire. "Democrats and liberal pundits have been claiming Trump's deployment order is illegal since they were deployed," commentator Tim Pool posted. "Then y'all went out and said, 'You must defy illegal orders.' These Guardsmen were targeted." Kenny Cody, opinion editor at Human Events, was even more blunt: "You told people to disobey the President. You've got blood on your hands, Mark."
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you are all safe and warm and hungry.

Happy Thanksgiving, Ace and everyone.
The Seattle TV websites have not, as of a couple of hours ago, not named the shooter. He is described as, "Bellingham Man".
I expect nothing less than that. Biden and his owner/operators own this.

-So will he "reexamine" just those from Afghanistan that Biden let in, or all of them? I guess it would be hard to do them all, but the ones from many other countries are just as bad.
- Does this include people given green cards? visas? Who? Many sat before a judge and got legal status.
Personally, I think
- first, criminal illegal aliens
- then all illegal aliens
- then those given visa or legal status who broke any laws
- then those given legal status who used *any* form of welfare
- then those given legal status who support anti-American ideas or values. (you know who they are.)
Then we can work on the naturalized and natural born children of illegals.

Depressing subject. Let's sing a little:
Next time you're found
With your chin on the ground
There a lot to be learned
So look around
Just what makes that little old ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant can't
Move a rubber tree plant
But he's got high hopes
He's got high hopes
He's got high apple pie
In the sky hopes
So any time you're gettin' low
'Stead of lettin' go
Just remember that ant
Oops, there goes another rubber tree plant
Oops, there goes another rubber tree plant
Oops, there goes another rubber tree plant

I wonder just what the "rules of engagement" are for the NG in D.C. D.C, being federal, is different. The Insurrection Act would have to be invoked, one way or the other, for the NG to start "engaging" directly as LEO.
But, with D.C. it's federal to begin with, and technically, POTUS is like the governor, with the feds having the state-like police powers. Of course, with the Home Rule crap, that's delegated out to the local through the mayor and all that.
So, I expect even here, the NG can't "engage" directly, unless they are engaged upon.

Deport every non-native Muslim.
The born-here can stay, but we watch them.like a hawk.
Straight, no chaser Islam is incompatible with American values and the Constitution.
Until we get a reformed Islam that accepts exigesis, we can't accept them in our midst. As long as the Koran tells them that killing "infidels' for their belief is not only acceptable, but required, and is treated as the inviolable and infallible Word of God, they are a systematic danger to our country.

I haven't see the details, just that it was approved earlier this year. Given how hard Trump has gone with deporting unwanted I have a hard time believing his team knowingly approved this.
But there are still a shitload of deep staters all throughout the government working against Trump and us.

I don't get enraged anymore. I expect Democrats activists, judges, prosecutors, and other officeholders to act as criminals and opponents to civilization. Once you expect that they are in fact enemies, not fellow countrymen, then you get the clear eyed recognition that is simply what they will do and how they will always behave.
Gimmedat Democrats for the bennies, you can treat them with contempt. Activists and officeholders, you treat them with caution just as you would a rattlesnake, scorpion, or other odious critter.

Rush Limbaugh: https://bit.ly/4riGcst
William Bradford, the governor of the Pilgrim community, saw that none of this was working. The Mayflower Compact was not working. Giving everybody a single share of stock in the common store, in the common bank was not working. Collectivism. It was as costly and destructive to the Pilgrims as it is and has been to anybody who has ever tried it.
So Bradford decided to scrub it. He threw it out and took bold action. He assigned a plot of land to each family. Every family was given a plot of land. They could work it, manage it however they wanted to. If they just wanted to sit on it, get fat, dumb, happy, and lazy, they could. If they wanted to develop it, if they wanted to grow corn, whatever on it, they could. If they wanted to build on it, they could do that. If they wanted to turn it into a quasi-business, they could do whatever they wanted to do with it.
He turned loose the power of the capitalist marketplace.

The Mayflower Compact was the result of landing in the wrong spot. The Pilgrims had a charter for land further south, but navigating to that area after already pretty much harboring in Plymouth would have been too much of a hassle. Some of the Pilgrims were heard to be saying that because they were outside the charter area, they were not bound to live by the rules within it. The leaders of the group decided it would be a good idea to gather everybody together and get a formal agreement of how things woukd run tonprevent anarchy before actually landing onshore. They then sent somebody back get a charter for their actual location.

Think of the number of 'freedom fighters' we have trained for Color Revolutions over these many decades. Now think of the number of countries from which we have imported 'refugees'. You know, from the Caribbean, Central America, South America, Africa, the Middle East, the Balkans, Southeast Asia.

Oliver Stone is a few bubbles off center but he did make one really good documentary on the color revolution that the CIA ran in Ukraine. Didn't kill many people there either but enough to destabilize the elected government, start a civil war and overthrow the country.

The 29-year-old suspect, an Afghan national, entered the U.S. in 2021 through Operation Allies Welcome, a Biden administration program that evacuated and resettled tens of thousands of Afghans after the U.S. withdrawal from the country, officials said.
The initiative brought roughly 76,000 people to the U.S., many of whom had worked alongside U.S. troops and diplomats as interpreters and translators. It has since faced intense scrutiny from Trump and his allies, congressional Republicans and some government watchdogs over gaps in the vetting process and the speed of admissions, even as advocates say it offered a lifeline to people at risk of Taliban reprisals.

Breaking! At least five of the seditious six were recruited and trained for office by “New Politics”. Maybe even all six! (Jason Crow and SIX other Congress members are involved in recruitment.)
“New Politics is a purpose-built political talent agency and campaign accelerator that recruits, trains, and develops leaders with service backgrounds to transform our politics.”
They even recruit from
Intelligence agencies too.
Not even two months before the Military Coup narrative was started, (I’ll explain later) New Politics got a sudden infusion of twenty million dollars! More money than they’ve seen in eight years of operations! Where did this come from?

Democrats' brains are so clogged with propaganda that they cannot grasp the basic logic of how the Sedition 6's inflammatory rhetoric could lead to US soldiers being murdered, so let me break down the obvious logic trail for the midwits:
1. The Sedition 6 implied that the things Trump ordered were unlawful orders.
2. Thus, any soldier doing his or her job as instructed by Trump and the chain of command was carrying out unlawful orders -- a war crime.
3. A shooter would therefore believe he was justified in shooting war criminals.
It's pretty easy to understand for those with functioning brains.

Reports, always tenuous early on, had the terrorist use a Smith and Wesson 357 Magnum. Some reports that after shooting the female guardsman, then he took her weapon and shot the male coming to her rescue. Dunno if that is accurate. But that was in at least one report. Given the location, there are multiple eyewitnesses and probably security video feed.

I'm guessing that cranberries existed as wild stands, but probably not abundant enough to be a food source. And the Pilgrims may not have known they could be safely eaten. Probably were small game and waterfowl and deer to be found. Sorta doubt the Pilgrims were well-trained in the sort of skills to live a successful hunter-gatherer lifestyle.

BREAKING: It's been revealed that a nonprofit linked to George Soros is fomenting sedition within the military around the same time a "script" went out to Democrat members of Congress urging rebellion within the ranks against President Trump.
There are also links to ANTIFA.
On November 11th - just days before the video - the National Lawyers Guild published a page urging service members to refuse "illegal" orders.
The same talking point in the video.
Win Without War has put up a billboard in NC urging chaos and dissent within the ranks, a group linked to a 501(c)(4) backed by Soros' Open Society. The group was previously named New Security Action.
As per @DataRepublican, Win Without War is partnered with the National Lawyers Guild.
National Lawyers Guild is a supporter of antifa.

One LEO in NM was killed despite wearing a bulletproof vest by an 45-70 slug to the chest. The slug had enough energy despite not penetrating the vest to cause a heart full of blood at that exact instant of bullet strike cause a spike in blood pressure that killed the poor LEO by an aneurism.

Put it in perspective: This video was crafted in the middle of important strikes in the Caribbean and mounting pressure against both Maduro/Venezuela but also China/Russia's influence in this hemisphere.
So Soros nonprofits are trying to sabotage the U.S. military in conjunction with high-ranking federal officials, in the middle of important conflicts and pressure campaigns - and just presented it as "patriotic veterans and Congress want you to stand up to Orange Man for your Country."
It's truly despicable stuff and the timing is not only suspicious, but dangerous.

Alex Soros also sits on the board for International Crisis Group, who contains at least one Cartel de los Soles denier @philgunson and just wrote a New York Times article trying to support the war.
Gunson also amplifies Elias Ferrer, who I think is one of the biggest scumbags on earth. He was just exposed as being involved in a Signal group with oil and Western government officials to collude to stop Trump for the interests of Big Oil.

=====
9mm is not a good round for snubbie revolvers due to the tendency in light weight snubbies to literally pull the bullets in the cylinders out of a taper crimp. Revolver rounds use roll crimps for a reason. And yes, you can shoot 38+p or 38 in a 357. Most of the convertible cylinder revolvers in 357 are actually single action due to ease of conversion.
But over time, what happens is you have to literally scrape the cylinder ends to remove fouling if you do it enough--lead bullets produce the most fouling--sometimes enough to cause pressure spikes or prevent bullet seating for 357s over time.
Best to simply buy a 38+p rated revolver in the first place. They are usually a bit lighter and cheaper due to the much lower pressures of a 38+p.
Reloaders, of course, have a choice. 357 Magnum brass is easily reloaded to 38+p, 38 spc, or even 38+p+ levels without the fouling problem mentioned above.
Anytime you have a sights on a firearm, you need to recheck for zero if you change bullet wt, velocity, or pressure.

Fun fact: My very first hunting kill was a wild turkey. I was eight at the time. We had him for Christmas dinner and he was a LOT better than the domestic variety.
No turkey this year. Game hen instead. And funny enough, every single item that has to go in the oven for today's dinner bakes at 350 degrees, making dinner prep infinitely easier.

We will shortly be off to celebrate Thanksgiving with the Indians at the local tribal casino's buffet. Normally there'd be the usual feed with lots of lovely leftovers and wonderful soup made from the turkey carcass, but in seven days the DH and I will be going into a medical weight mgmt program and will be eating nothing but proteins shakes, bars, and soup for the next 16 weeks. No point in trying to freeze leftovers for 4 months, dang it!

Members of same management who saw it laughed, and said "Nice picture of [company across the street's] management."

Two flocks have taken up residence in our neighborhood, no doubt because hunting is forbidden (not unreasonable given the density), and they show little interesting people, just doing their thing.
What's funny is that when you approach them, they will all become alert, and then use the side eye to watch you, which gives the impression that they refused to make eye contact and are pointedly ignoring you. Very funny when they all do it.

Interesting point. Everything can go wrong but it's not going away. (For example an article in NIH, National Library of Medicine, 'An Overview of Chatbot-Based Mobile Mental Health Apps: Insights From App Description and User Reviews')
Now we're forced to acknowledge what C19 intentionally created, how much of the funding was pissed through (or hidden) thereafter, and how they need those C19 funding boosts in "affordable care" to be sustained for years to cover who/what gets the $$.
Every time the huge extension of C19 Medicare/Medicaid funding comes up in Congress, some local mother drags her daughter onto camera and claims the poor kid would be suicidal without online therapy and/or AI chatbots. That's followed by several 20 somethings, reportedly unable to function without such online therapy.
I don't believe it but it's yet another national quagmire to contend with. (Awaiting English majors.)

The Morning Report — 11/27/25
One of the two West Virginia National Guard members shot in a violent ambush on Wednesday afternoon has been identified as Andrew Wolfe, according to his former high school. “Our Applemen community is deeply saddened to learn that Musselman High School alumnus, Andrew Wolfe, was one of the National Guardsmen injured in the shooting in Washington, D.C. today,” Musselman High School in West Virginia posted on Facebook. Wolfe is currently undergoing surgery and is in critical condition after Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, allegedly opened fire on him and a female National Guard member near the Farragut West Metro Station in Northwest DC in what’s being probed as a possible terrorist attack.The evil bastard Democrats have more innocent blood on their hands. This is yet one more act of barbarism that they and they alone are responsible for. Until my last breath, all the pain, suffering dislocation and wastage of life, money and human potential that has laid us low for over 200 years is directly the fault of Democrat Leftist policy, corruption and criminality in their ongoing and never ending lust for absolute power. Just like the victims of the Islamikaze suicide bombers in Kabul 5 years ago these deaths are directly the fault of Joe Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants Biden and whoever auto penned his signature authorizing the US military to just drop everything and bug out of Afghanistan.
In September 2021, then U.S. Senate candidate JD Vance warned that Joe Biden’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal and reckless refugee resettlement would “create an opportunity for terrorists.” He blasted the administration for flooding America with “thousands of unvetted people,” a failure he said put Americans at risk. As the nation’s newly sworn vice president in January 2025, Vance doubled down on the warning, telling CBS, “We know that there are cases of people who allegedly were property vetted and then were literally planning terrorist attacks in our country.”
. . . The idea that these people are vetted is a lie, and we need to call out that lie. Now, if we do that of course, what they [leftists] say is “the reason you don’t want these Afghans in your community is because you are a racist.” Well, that’s not true. I don’t care about the color of their skin. Here’s what I care about — that according to Pew Research, 40 percent of people who live in Afghanistan believe that suicide bombings are an acceptable way to solve a problem. Are we allowed to say that I don’t want 100,000 people unvetted from a country where nearly half the people think suicide bombing is an OK way to solve a problem? Because I don’t want that. Shortly after being sworn in as vice president in January, Vance squared off against CBS Face the Nation’s Margaret Brennan, who claimed, “These people are vetted!” Vice President Vance responded sharply, saying, “Just like the guy who planned a terrorist attack in Oklahoma a few months ago?”
Of course the Democrat Left Media complex are in overdrive blaming, Guess Who?!
Critics are lambasting MS NOW correspondent Ken Dilanian for seemingly suggesting the suspect who critically injured two National Guardsmen near the White House was reacting to “controversy” surrounding uniformed Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in American cities. Dilanian, a justice and intelligence correspondent for the network, pitched his two cents on the devastating shooting while on-air Wednesday afternoon. “[O]f course, you know, there’s so much controversy happening in the United States right now with ICE, who are also wearing uniforms and wearing masks. And so there’s, you don’t know, people walking around with uniforms in an American city. There are some Americans that might object to that. And so apparently this shooting has happened,” he said during an MS NOW breaking news report. The shooting, which law enforcement officials said was a targeted “ambush,” critically wounded two National Guardsmen, including one who was believed to be shot in the head.Ken Dilletantian went on to blame the Jews for all the carbon emissions over the crematoria at Auschwitz during World War 2 for being a major cause of global warming. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. I am so very thankful for all of you who come here every morning, as well as your prayers and good wishes for me and the spouse during a very difficult time as we now both battle some health issues. I'm fine but she's suffering. GOd bless and keep you all! And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

The is the first step that begins the journey into reprobation.
On this great and beautiful day set aside of all other days to be one where people of faith can thank the Almighty for all that we have and all that will be ours when we are in Him.

When phrased that way, the 42% doesn't bother me. I would guess that emotional "thinkers" would view public roads, schools, housing, transportation, infrastructure, hospitals - things that they interact with daily and at a commodity level, things that are usually perceived as "free" to them because it is subsidized or part of Section Ape, SNAP, etc. could not possibly let their minds wander to pure Libertarianism where the road in front of your house is private and tolled.
Those with substantial assets or equity positions in things would be shocked and horrified that the long hours of work, the years of delayed gratification were to be stolen from them and given to the local junkie a/o illegal alien.

The opposite of coveting and theft. The whole point and purpose of the Welfare State is to anonymize origin of gifts so that gratitude is either directed at an amorphous blob or isn't possible.
Without gratitude, things become entitlements.
One of the best things that I added to my life years ago, was getting up at dark-thirty to go for a 2+ mile walk where I would spend most of the time being openly grateful, enumerating everything from salvation, health, job, family, relative peace and security, etc.
Imagine if whatever you didn't specifically name in the things that you are grateful for, those things were taken from you, how long that list will be each morning.
We are blessed people, yet we don't deserve it.

Well, vigilantes. Which we will be informed is just horrible, “taking the law into your own hands”. I’m not sure what the more benighted members of the leftist insurgency expected. When the rule of law breaks down, every crime no matter how minor is a capital offense.
Know your history. Organized police forces are just a recent blip in the timeline. Most of human history was not a system setup for the rights of the accused, a presumption of innocence, or three hots and a cot and an attorney. You could say those are “luxury beliefs” for an affluent society. In an effluent society, all that goes out the window.

My mom would stay up late to put the 20 lb turkey in the oven around 11:00 pm and then get up early to get it out. Pies were done yesterday. Morning was for dressing (stuffing outside of the bird) and other sides. Mom would carve the turkey in the kitchen. Dinner at 1:00 pm
My mother-in-law wouldn't do that. Dinner wasn't until 4:00 pm. I hated that.

Not a fan of the green bean casserole. I saute a chopped or thinly sliced onion in a bunch of butter, then add the fresh green beans, salt and pepper, and water (enough to steam them, gotta check occasionally to make sure they don't boil dry). Med heat for about 12-15 minutes until perfectly tender, but not mushy.
Add toasted sliced almonds if you like it that way, after you've transferred them to the serving dish.

That's a lie.
Many of the Afghans brought over here were single, military aged men who were playing both sides against each other and turned to the US to help them get out of a situation that would likely result in their own death.
They're not here to integrate with society. Whether the Intel Community is still "running" some of them is debatable, but I find it more than likely they are.

Rush Limbaugh: https://bit.ly/4riGcst
William Bradford, the governor of the Pilgrim community, saw that none of this was working. The Mayflower Compact was not working. Giving everybody a single share of stock in the common store, in the common bank was not working. Collectivism. It was as costly and destructive to the Pilgrims as it is and has been to anybody who has ever tried it.
So Bradford decided to scrub it. He threw it out and took bold action. He assigned a plot of land to each family. Every family was given a plot of land. They could work it, manage it however they wanted to. If they just wanted to sit on it, get fat, dumb, happy, and lazy, they could. If they wanted to develop it, if they wanted to grow corn, whatever on it, they could. If they wanted to build on it, they could do that. If they wanted to turn it into a quasi-business, they could do whatever they wanted to do with it.
He turned loose the power of the capitalist marketplace.

Would be assassin, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, who may or may not have worked with the CIA in Afghanistan for several years before being brought to the US in 2021 under one of Biden's Humanitarian Parole schemes, a TPS plus?
>France 24, 'National Guard shooting suspect served alongside US army in Afghanistan: US media'
Saw a questionable "source" which wrote he served alongside U.S. Special Forces in Afghanistan for 10 years prior to his arrival, 'reportedly.' If true, he would have been quite young - a teen of +/-14 - when recruited, not necessarily stable before or after.
Also, don't forget there were all-volunteer groups of U.S. veterans, some notably referred to as "Task Force Pineapple," who conducted unofficial missions back then (2021) to help evacuate 'critically at-risk Afghans, including elite forces and their families' & bring them into the US.
Reportedly, those veterans often 'vouched' for those transported & their entry. Was their 'vetting' conducted and approved to bring individuals and families into the US, and were those individuals and families also placed automatically on slow Joe's "Humanitarian Parole?"

🤷♀️ Always interesting.

Anyway, I'd bet $ it's another big convoluted mess of poor or not vetting for entry into the US & lack of F/U of the entrants.
Each and everyone needs to be revetted or sent home quickly. (Btw, so many babies were born immediately after the airlift and beginning settlement in the US, it was ridiculous. And "daddy" hadn't been brought into the US yet or ever. Think about this mess alone.)
So Trump is again the BIG, unreasonable meanie because - BBC 'US suspends immigration requests for Afghans after National Guard shooting' 3 hours ago
No, vet ALL arriving from that nation and/or through EU or other countries from at least 2021. With few exceptions, all under Humanitarian Parole were to be out or leaving the US under the Biden administration.
Also, redo the vetting for each & every Ukrainian under Biden's special Humanitarian Parole program and get ready to boot many. Do not think for one minute they're not part of the press in this country constantly driving the goodness of Zelenskyy etal.

'Zelenskyy faces the biggest corruption scandal of his presidency'
A must read.
This scandal involves energy and infrastructure contracts.
In part, "On November 10, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) exposed an alleged $110 million corruption scheme at state-owned nuclear company Energoatom. The charges are supported by a fifteen-month wiretap and over seventy searches carried out as part of a major investigation called Operation Midas."
Again & again & again, scandal, missing funds, etc. and a Netflix President. Enough of this, too. End the Humanitarian Parole; end the country's young fighting age men hiding in this country and others, and end involvement with, and interference in, "honest" journalism in the US.
All, imo.

Fine, then this is all the more reason that there is no reason to reassess any of these people here from the Middle East and Third World countries (and Western nations that have become Third World countries like the UK, France, Sweden, etc.). Just send them all back and ban them all from ever returning.
The vetting process is broken. Likely because there are activists in the federal government rubber stamping all these savages.
During the 10-20 year moratorium on ALL immigration, the task should be to eliminate every activist from the federal government. Only after that has been successful will immigration be considered again.

Straighten out the stinking mess between approximately 124,000 people were airlifted out of Kabul, Afghanistan, during Operation Allies Refuge in August 2021, and at which time more 76,000 Afghans were brought to the United States under the subsequent Operation Allies Welcome program.
Then figure out the total number of Afghans who arrived in the U.S. through various other pathways (including special veteran flights; humanitarian parole; Special Immigrant Visas, and the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program) since the Taliban takeover in August 2021, and reported to be nearly 200,000 then.
And now?
BTW, only about 11,700 Afghans were admitted to the U.S. under Temporary Protected Status (TPS), and their protections were set to end on May 20, 2025, but - of course - challenged in Court.
A court ruling, October 3, 2025, allowed the termination of this status to take immediate effect. This means that Afghan nationals are no longer protected from deportation after May 20, 2025, although those with Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) issued before February 5, 2025, with an expiration date of October 2, 2026, will retain work authorization until that date.

The spike in searches of this person’s name in the hours before the attack means the people who knew this was going to happen were searching to see if he had completed his task.
A known CIA asset who was a trained member of a covert unit of assassins.
Make no mistake, whether he came to the US on an SIV visa or humanitarian parole, he has a sponsor (handler) & a detailed dossier. They know exactly who he is - the question is who was he working for on this operation?

Top Story
- OpenAI says a dead teenager circumvented ChatGPT safety features before committing suicide. (Tech Crunch)
This comes out of one of the manifold lawsuits for wrongful death levied against OpenAI by the families of, well, crazy people.
And OpenAI actually seems to have a point:OpenAI claims that over roughly nine months of usage, ChatGPT directed Raine to seek help more than 100 times.
Why didn't you tell him to seek help?
(Produces list of dates, times, and messages.)
We did.But according to his parents' lawsuit, Raine was able to circumvent the company's safety features to get ChatGPT to give him "technical specifications for everything from drug overdoses to drowning to carbon monoxide poisoning," helping him to plan what the chatbot called a "beautiful suicide."
Y'know, back in the Paleozoic era there were these things called libraries.
Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren't lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live.

Not directly, but like WhatsApp you could simply run through all the possible numbers - even easier in this case because they are sequential - and access every single piece of data. And there was no rate limiting.
- Asus' new Lockerstor Gen2 NASes offer up to six 3.5" drive bays, four M.2 slots for storage or caching, and dual 5Gb Ethernet ports. (Notebook Check)
And a PCIe slot if you need more speed.
Priced starting at $470.
- What's better than a supercomputer? A supercomputer with baked salmon. (The Register)
Norway's newest supercomputer is also being used to provide warm water for local salmon farms, or, if you dial the heat up just a little...
- Reviewing the Framework Desktop. (Serve the Home)
A month ago these AI-oriented systems with 128GB of unified RAM seemed awfully expensive.
Then the prices for regular memory went not merely into orbit, but directly out of the Solar System.
Since prices for these integrated systems have not been adjusted yet, they are suddenly looking much more attractive.
- AI companies are moving beyond the scale-up phase. (ABZ Global)
Ilya Sutskever (co-founder of OpenAI and now running his own company) and Yann Lecun (chief of AI at Meta) point out that the age of just scaling things up and getting better results is already over, and that all the money in the world can't make AI actually useful without much more research.
Lecun goes further and says - as I do - that LLMs are simply not a path to real intelligence. He lays out four key elements needed for intelligence, and notes that LLMs do not feature any of them.

The SSD-based ones are still too pricy because of the cost of the memory.
Boring old spinning drives are so much cheaper that it seems to make sense to get a bigger NAS with more slots. The memory is currently running at less than $20/TB!

That brings us to the most bizarre feature. There is a PCIe Gen4 x4 slot on the motherboard.
While that is exciting, someone forgot to put a low-profile card I/O slot between the PSU and the motherboard on the rear of the system. This is a huge miss, and one that even, having used the system for more than a month, I cannot get over. Perhaps you can stick an M.2 card in there, but it would have opened up the possibilities of this system so much to just have a low-profile card slot here (and an open-ended PCIe slot.) You end up with a PCIe Gen4 x4 slot that is not very useful because of the chassis design.
Yeah, that was a huge oversight.
Even if that slot is barely usable to begin with it would be nice to have somewhere to plug cables into it without cutting holes are leaving the side open with cables hanging out.
STH is the first reviewer I’ve seen mention this problem.

It’s probably that Framework designed this system before they started getting the motherboards in. The board looks like the same motherboards MinisForum puts out with the mobile chip soldered in and heatsink already installed.
So they designed it around an ITX motherboard size and didn’t even think about the PCIe slot until they started arriving and then they said “Ooops, too late to change anything on the chassis now!”
If it happened any other way than that somebody just wasn’t paying attention who should have been.

Quick summary: The contract we were on had not been extended and we were told to stop work immediately at 9. Co-worker reaches out to our boss and lets him know what happened.
Boss's reaction was basically "What? This is the first time I'm hearing about this" and he gets involved.
In the end, the contract got an extension on Monday afternoon, we were given up to 8 hours of furlough that doesn't count against our PTO and all is normal again.

Most of our malls are gone. There are only two major ones, one near me and one in the western suburbs, and they are doing well (though the one near me, the area's first enclosed mall, is turning into Mogadishu). The Dillard's Outlet is housed in a dead mall building in the far western area. There's a Target nearby and a few other outlying businesses. Not hard to get to and very easy to park.
Maybe we can have lunch afterward at a Dot's Diner on the major boulevard south of there.

There’s only one real indoor mall here now.
There used to be two, but the other closed several years ago and is supposed to be redeveloped.
The one that’s still open has the Mogadishu problem as well.
There’s still a big Tanger Outlet shopping center that’s taken most of that business, along with Amazon and Walmart.

I remember vaguely that going shopping downtown was kind of a big deal. Apparently involved lots of perfume, and scarves. Mom had gloves she would wear when going on about town to buy more shoes and unmentionables.
Grocery shopping. You paid for your stuff, and then went and got your car. Pull up to the delivery area and they would load your car filled with groceries. $20 was a LOT of food. Won’t even buy a pack of smokes some places now.

My grandmother on my mother's side of the family also pronounced "ate" as "et." She was born in 1915 and raised in the "hollers" of West Virginia coal country.
I suspect it is an older British pronunciation that was still preserved in Appalachia at the time.

Wednesday Overnight Open Thread - November 26, 2025 [Zombie Rex]
Good evening Horde. The time has come for mid-week shenanigans of the overnight variety.
Welcome to the Wednesday night ONT which means another edition of overnight fun and games. Pull up a chair and sit a spell. Good will offerings of amusing puns are happily accepted. Be nice to your fellow commenters and AoS contributors. No, this is not an officially recognized Food Thread. Don't be a traffic cone.
Vaccinium macrocarpon, commonly called American cranberry, is native to bogs, swamps, and wet shorelines in parts of northern and eastern North America. It is a low-growing vine or trailing shrub (to 6" tall and spreading) with small, glossy leaves. Small, nodding flowers with white to pink, recurved petals bloom from late spring into early summer. The flowers are followed by plump, red to dark purple, ovoid to round, 0.5" diameter fruits. The leaves of this plant are a larval food source for the bog copper butterfly, the flowers are visited by bees, and the fruits are eaten by birds and occasionally small mammals. The genus name Vaccinium comes from an ancient Latin name apparently derived from a prehistoric Mediterranean language. Its origin and meaning are generally considered to be lost to time. The specific epithet macrocarpon means large-fruited, in reference to the relatively large size of the fruit of this species. The common name cranberry derives from the Germanic kraan, meaning "crane" and bere, meaning "berry," possibly in reference to the appearance of the flowers.Source: Missouri Botanical Garden, St. Louis, MO
Written correspondence can be sent to moronhobbies at protonmail dot com. If you came to the ONT to find cheat codes to Hunt the Wumpus, you are welcome to look through our old Compute! magazines. They're over in the corner and bundled with twine. Are you lurking ?? Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Behold: Nasty Gelled Cranberry Sauce, the unholy abomination that slinks out of the can with a wet, reluctant schlorp, like a gelatinous slug that’s been marinating in its own existential dread since 1973.
It lands on the plate in a perfect, ridged cylinder, quivering with the faint structural integrity of a haunted Jell-O mold. The surface gleams under the kitchen light with an unnatural, almost radioactive sheen (think "nuclear maraschino cherry" meets "gas station sushi"). Tiny air bubbles are suspended inside like trapped souls trying to escape. When you slice into it, the knife makes a sound best described as a sad trombone being slowly drowned in simple syrup.
The texture? Imagine if cranberry bog water had a midlife crisis, gave up, and decided to become a fruit-flavored rubber tire. It wobbles. It jiggles. It refuses to break apart like normal food, instead choosing to ooze in slow-motion defiance, leaving behind a glossy, sticky crime scene that clings to your fork like it’s personally offended you tried to eat it.

You People laugh at canned Cranberry Sauce, but it is a key component in constructing a proper Miles Standish.
-- sliced Bread, 2 pieces
-- leftover Turkey meats, a pile
-- leftover Stuffing, a heaping

I am sending Mr. TiFW to the grocery store in the morning because he got me the WRONG cranberry sauce earlier this week - I didn't realize that I needed to specify that I wanted Jellied cranberry sauce 🙄🙄🙄
I mean, if it doesn't slide out of the can in one piece and you can't see ridges on it, it isn't really cranberry sauce, now is it?

Myles Standish, 1854--1656
Sailed to the new continent on the Mayflower with his 19-yr old wife, Rose. Rose died, in 1621, a few months after landing at Plymouth, MA
Miles remarried in 1624 to another colonial pilgrim babe, Barbara, 35, who arrived at the Plymouth colony on the ship the Anne in 1623.
It is unclear when, exactly, Miles Standish invented his famous sammich, which is his only true accomplishment in life.

• 1 cup oatmeal
• ½ cup sifted flour or rice flour
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• ½ cup butter
• 1 lb cranberries
Mix the oatmeal, flour, and brown sugar. Cut in butter until crumbly. Place half the oatmeal mix in a greased 8x8 pan. Cover with cranberries, and top with the remaining oatmeal. Bake 45 minutes at 350°.

And Turkey Day will be celebrated with a Rib Roast.
32 years ago, I got divorced. I had full custody of my twins BUT X got them on some Holidaze... so... Thanksgiving she got them every other year, AND, whoever did not have them on Turkey day got the kids the following Friday and Weekend...
So... Her family ALWAYS did a Turkey... Thus, the tradition of the Rib Roast came to be.
Many years when I lived in Colorado, if'n I did not have the Kiddos, I would Snow Ski on Thanksgiving... then on Friday do the Beefy Beefy Feast...

It may have been an all-purpose recipe, I don’t have the book in front of me right now due to family travels. I love a good apple crisp, but that cranberry has taken over as my favorite, and rhubarb a close second.
Rhubarb Crisp
• 4 cups diced rhubarb
• ½ cup plus 1 tbsp flour
• 1 tbsp water
• 2/3 cup brown sugar
• ¼ tsp cinnamon
• ½ cup sugar
• ½ cup butter
• ¾ cup oatmeal
• ¼ tsp salt
Mix all together; bake in 8x8 greased pan. Bake at 350° 45 to 50 minutes.

Do they stillmake jellied cranberry sauce with raspberry? I think that's an improvement. For whole cranberry sauce, go ahead and make it yourself, using the recipe on the bag of cranberries. Variations include 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon salt and some citrus juice and/or zest. But just cranberries, sugar and water is fine. Try it plain first.
Cranberry relish is zippier. There is also cranberry salsa, which can be nice. Sometimes made with mild chiles, onion and lime juice.

Mary Brewster (c. 1569 – April 17, 1627) was a Pilgrim and one of the women on the Mayflower.
She was the wife of Elder William Brewster. She was one of only five adult women from the Mayflower to survive the first winter in the New World, and one of only four such to survive to the "first Thanksgiving" in 1621, which she helped cook.[1][3] As such, she is included in Plimoth Plantation's reenactment of that Thanksgiving.
She had six children with William: Jonathan, Patience, Fear, an unnamed child who died young, Love, and Wrestling.

Sweet sour beef: soak the sliced top round beef in soy, chinese rice wine, garlic, etc for a few hours. Pat dry, chill in the fridge for a few more. Mix up a cherry/ pineapple, chicken stock, soy, starch, sauce. Get the wok wicked hot. Toss the beef in a flour / corn starch and salt mix. Fry the hell out of it. Serve with rice, green onions, and the cooked down sauce.

Preheat the oven to 425F and layer the ingredients in a casserole in the order given:
2 large onions, cut into 1/4-inch-wide strips
14 fillets Swedish anchovies, or regular anchovies
6 potatoes, peeled and cut into strips

I bought some old-fashioned non-quick oatmeal the other day. Being of the retired persuasion, I no longer have to give a crap about stuffing down breakfast and heading out the door, and oatmeal is just the thing for a cold winter morning.
And once again I realize just how early my mother must've had to get up to make us all breakfast before school/work. "Quick" oatmeal didn't exist then. Biscuits and sausage gravy. Pancakes. Lots of other things.
I'mk thankful for that, Mom. I wish you were here so I could tell you in person.
I'm planning to have a leisurely Sunday morning breakfast with oatmeal, raisins, and cinnamon, scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast.
Figure I should be recovered from Thanksgiving dinner by them.

There was a bypass hose on it, but the previous workers had crammed in a piece of straight 3/4" heater hose, and it was kinked almost shut. I rooted around in a box of used molded heater hoses, found one with slight bend in it, and cut that piece out and used it. Fits like a glove; no kinks.

Years ago I saw capers really good price.
No idea what they were but bought a jar.
Open it and take a whiff... Whoo?!.. ok...
Olive oil
Some fresh garlic,
Dissolve some anchovy,
Some crushed red pepper,
Capers,
Sliced black olives ...
Dump in a jar of whatever red sauce.
Pretty damn good.
Didn't know it was a thing since forever until years later.

"Mincemeat", as used as a filling for pies or tarts, is mostly candied fruit, and some nuts maybe, and a little suet or lard, IIRC. And it has spices in it.
Hot mince pie with "hard sauce" is a yummy holiday tradition. Hard sauce is like cake frosting, with booze in it.

It lands on the plate in a perfect, ridged cylinder, quivering with the faint structural integrity of a haunted Jell-O mold. The surface gleams under the kitchen light with an unnatural, almost radioactive sheen (think "nuclear maraschino cherry" meets "gas station sushi"). Tiny air bubbles are suspended inside like trapped souls trying to escape. When you slice into it, the knife makes a sound best described as a sad trombone being slowly drowned in simple syrup.
The texture? Imagine if cranberry bog water had a midlife crisis, gave up, and decided to become a fruit-flavored rubber tire. It wobbles. It jiggles. It refuses to break apart like normal food, instead choosing to ooze in slow-motion defiance, leaving behind a glossy, sticky crime scene that clings to your fork like it’s personally offended you tried to eat it.

She didn't know what to do and was scared that it would cost her a fortune to fix!
I told her to call the power company. She continued to freak out. I told her *again* to call power company, which she finally did... and then she wanted me to come over because she was still freaking out. OK.
Brought over a LED lantern & extra batteries, just in case.
Turned out, her neighbor's tree was rubbing the insulation on her powerline and water got in when it rained. Crew trimmed the tree and spliced out the bad spot. Yay! And no charge to BFF.

Heh. I had a similar situation this morning, except it wasn't a BFF. A woman came to the house looking for Roommate Brent, who was out. When I told her this, she burst into tears. In her car was a yappy terrier and two puppies, each maybe a month old. Car was overheating.
She had just left her abusive boyfriend and had no where to go. She had met Brent back in August. No contact since. I got her to a church that I'd been going to. Only person there happened to run the women's ministry. She suggested a battered women's shelter, and the girl was familiar with it. I followed her there to make sure her car didn't quit along the way. She appeared to be thinking a bit more clearly by then, so I'm hopeful she's getting the help she needs. Definitely not on my bingo card today...

This year we will be bringing GF green bean casserole, GF stuffing, GF sweet potato casserole, GF buttermilk pie, canned cranberry sauce, and 3 pies that we ordered from a local company that helps out Rebecca's old school.
Most of the GF items taste the same as the regular stuff; A couple of the guests have to or choose to eat GF - Rebecca being one who has to - so we bring those items so that others don't have to make it special.
One of our friends brings sweet potato casserole and cranberry relish, but she adds jalapenos or chipotles to hers, and the cancer med that I am on makes my mouth very sensitive. I can't even drink carbonated soda these days!
But we will all have fun, and the thing that I am most thankful for this Thanksgiving is that I am still here to spend it with all of our dearest friends. 😊💕🦃

Brown up some hamburger/pork mince and set aside when done, then add a tablespoon of the bacon grease to the fat left over and saute the onions in the fat, and as soon as the onions are turning a light brown, add the sliced cabbage to the mixture and wilt it down.
After this is done, take mixture off the stove and let it cool down to room temperature, and as soon as this is done, take some dough and roll it out to a somewhat thin sheet (1/2 in thickness or so) and place some of the meat/cabbage/onion onto the dough and bring the edges up and around so as to enclose the meat, then seal the dough. Place on a cookie sheet, bake, and enjoy!
It was a field meal for my grandfather, his brothers (before they got married and started their own farms), son, and grandsons when they were planting/harvesting and couldn't come in to eat lunch and dinner.

Husband should have been able to Uber all night; Thanksgiving Eve does really good business. He had planned to bag $400-500 for the night.
He'd only netted $100 so far when a lady in her 40s got in his car. Must have been drunk. She proceeded to throw up on the outside and inside of the car. And peed in the back passenger seat. And she didn't say anything! He very randomly found out.
He took pics and reported it to Uber. She'll have an $80 fine added to her tab. Hubby needs to get it professionally detailed, but of course nothing is open on Thanksgiving, even the 24 hour places. So probably earliest can get it detailed is Friday. That's another night of business lost.
So frustrating! He's too mad to sleep. This is the second time someone's thrown up in the car and ruined his night. We really need to invest in waterproof seat covers methinks!

I just spent the last couple of hours setting up figlet an lolcat to randomly select a phrase from a phrase txt file and random font to display every time a terminal is open, the phrases are well known movie and tv phrases.
I have now put together another list of bible verses, I will now spend the next several hours trying to create a method of taking the movie phrases and bible phrases and mashing them up.
The hardest part is how to parse each phrase and put them together so they make sense and aren't either gibberish or simply a non-contextual concatenation.

NO AI is used in the production or distribution of Penguin Facts.
This statement is true. Communist front organizations typically insist that their agents write their own copy, which is then reviewed by a handler. In this way, the party maintains strict control over the narrative. As pointed out previously, agents of Penguin Facts first type out their comments on vintage Woodstock typewriters (in homage to Alger Hiss), then their handlers, after carefully reviewing the text, post the comments online.

The 'low risk' Constellation class of next gen FFGs has been cancelled because the US Navy has not learned from the Zumwalt class or the two LCS classes. Delivery date of the lead ship has slipped from 2026 to 2029 as the Navy kept on adding requirements.
As a result, there will only be two Constellation class ships - USS Constellation and USS Congress. Both built in Wisconsin. The other four ships of the initial flight have been cancelled before keel laying.

@mrddmia
From law-enforcement source:
Afghan National, born in 1996, armed with a revolver ambushed a female guardsman, shooting her in the head, and a male guardsman, shot multiple times. They never saw it coming. Both guardsmen were armed.
A Major in the National Guard, who was unarmed and doing his spot checks of the guardsmen was in the block, heard the shots and turned to see the shooter who spotted him. He took cover behind a truck.
The suspect came for the Major who pulled out his pocket knife, and bravely took on the suspect who was reloading his revolver.
The Major began stabbing the suspect in the head.
Another guardsman in the area who was armed, them drew his pistol and shot the suspect twice, once in the leg and once in the buttocks.
The Major stated that when the suspect began shooting he heard him shout, Allahu akbar!”
I just briefed [omitted].
Now, you know too.
There’s more: we trying to confirm if the suspect, an Afghan national was an interpreter brought over by Biden, because he has a Department of Defense record. Again, we are trying to confirm.
The suspect has a home address in Washington State.

Fox is reporting that he was allowed in by Biden as part of an operation in 2021 to bring in Afghanis who worked with us during the war. But there was no real vetting, the allowed in pretty much anyone who asked.
And then this asshole overstayed his visa. There were tens if not hundreds of thousands of Afghanis allowed in. This is going to get worse before it gets better because leftists are doubling down on their rhetoric, everyone who opposes them is a Nazi fascist.

Anyone we know killed someone, and we have ways of being very sure now, should be put to death in a matter of months if not weeks.
This alone would significantly reduce the murder-rate.

I'm getting pretty cynical about this stuff. Someone just happened to be recording this...and then has footage of the happy dog in "foster" care. I think it's their dog, the black car and the car behind it recording, and they made it up for clicks.

There is misinformation going around that Lakanwal came to the U.S. on a Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) which would show prior service with our government in Afghanistan, he did not. He was evacuated by the Biden Administration under a Humanitarian Parole status in 2021. We need to know who supported him to get this parole and who approved it!

As I've said here often, many of the problems that plague us today were things that were either started by or not ended by Reagan when he had the chance. He's a giant, for sure, but the swamp got to him in various ways:
Not dealing with Iran
Not dealing with Hezbollah after the Marine bombing
Sandra Day O'Connor
Not ending affirmative action (see Sandra Day O'Connor)

Honestly, most of the time when such a subject comes up a surprising number of rarely heard names come galloping in to start calling names and using heavily loaded language.
That is outside of one-notes who have no apparent personality or outside interests who only talk on the same subject until everyone is exhausted with the subject.

Not quite correct. I'm critical of Reagan, but also fully aware of his manifest talents and accomplishments in a different American era. Setting us up to collapse the Soviet Union without a shot being fired in active war was an enormous accomplishment. At least 30% of the world's population was freed of Communist tyranny and influence. That's no small feat and deserves a place on Rushmore by itself. Sticking with Volcker when the Rs got shellacked in '82 was a feat of intestinal fortitude that set us up for 40 years of economic gains. That deserves another place at Rushmore.
His misses were big, but his hits were much bigger, on the whole.

It is also an opinion he has backed up by explaining his reasoning. It is something you can disagree with, but calling someone an anti-semite is not an argument.
Arguing, for example, that he is doing the only thing possible in the situation IS an argument. However that argument would require an analysis of WHY that is a valid tactic requires more typing than "rasiss" so.

Tucker Carlson has laid out why he objects to it. You are not required to agree with his argument any more than Scogg's.
Tucker challenges the neo-con argument for foreign involvement, and that argument is central to much of how the US government is organized. Once again, you are not required to agree, but calling him an anti-semite for his position is not an effective argument, any more that the local fundamentalist church condemning card playing is an effective manner to encourage moral behavior

It's not difficult. They are a functioning democracy, the only one, in a region full of religious, tyrannical and murderous psychopaths that despise us as much as they do Jews and Israel. For all of your whining about Israel I've never heard you say a word about all of the money we give Egypt. Because in both instances it's we pay to have them do shit or we do it ourselves.
And why do you never mention what we get for the money we give Israel? Most of it comes back to us for weapons purchases and in exchange we get missile and medical technology and much more. Why don't you ever mention any of that?
Israel isn't perfect. Obviously, the US isn't. None of us are. But pretending our relationship with Israel isn't a net positive for the US is dumb.

Israel is our "unsinkable aircraft carrier" that dominates the Midde East, that is its value.
The question Tucker has is if that is a valid use of a country, or if it is a proper thing to do, his stated position is that it is not.

to displace, I don't disagree with your position, I disagree with silencing argument. Part of this is because of my feeling that argument is essential, but even more because it is a terrible tactic.
Bill Buckley silenced argument from his position at the head of Conservative Inc, and turned a major strain of political thought in the US into a country club for people who agreed with him. He should not have had that power, and it made Conservatism into a voice crying in the dark.

The Wednesday In Woke
Three people are dead, and 26 more were injured in shootings in the Democrat-run Windy City this weekend. Yet state and local authorities are much more concerned about ICE arresting illegal aliens than about the sky-high crime rate. CBS Chicago posted the most recent tally as of Monday morning, which was 29 shooting victims this weekend, three of them fatal. The victims ranged in age from a very young 13 to 65. The youngest fatality was a 14-year-old, and the number of deaths could go higher, as multiple individuals were reported in a serious or critical condition by the time they reached hospitals. The biggest shooting appears to have been the one that made headlines from the popular Loop area of Chicago following Christmas season festivities, which left more than half a dozen teenagers injured. The Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony in Chicago ended in tragedy after seven 13-to-17-year-olds were shot. Mayor Brandon Johnson, who has been wasting time, resources, and effort on protecting illegal aliens, admitted that there is a threat this holiday season of attempted "teen takeovers." ABC7 staff heard the shots from the State Street studio. Obviously, large crowds are expected in downtown Chicago this holiday season, making the potential impact of shootings much greater.Yes but no arrests. One mustn't ever arrest the criminals. You can put police on the streets to discourage them from shooting people right in front of the cops, but if they aren't discouraged and do shoot people -- no arrests. And if they are arrested: Put them back on the street in three hours. In Italy, a sixty-year-old woman was raped by a migrant in a park while waling her dog. But that's not the telling fact. The telling fact is that migrants already gang-raped a woman in this same park, earlier this year.
A separate incident that same night claimed the life of the 14-year-old boy. At the same time, an 18-year-old man was seriously injured, and it is not clear if he will survive. Ironically, Mayor Johnson, who loves to bash law enforcement, promised after that shooting, "we will have a strong police presence. We'll have stronger control over how traffic flows."
Culture, enriched.
PARK OF HORRORS Female dog-walker, 60, 'sexually assaulted by migrant' in SAME park where teen 'was gang raped in front of her partner' The dog-walker was raped with such force she suffered serious injuries after the assault
A WOMAN in her 60s was raped by a migrant while walking her dog in the same park a gang of expats brutally attacked and gang raped a teen, forcing her boyfriend to watch. The quiet Tor Tre park in Rome has become the centre of shocking catalogue of sexual violence, with police now probing a string of assaults stretching back months. The first attack came in the early hours of the morning in August, when a 60-year-old woman was attacked around 6am. She was dragged into the park near the Via degli Olmi entrance and raped with such force she suffered two broken ribs. Despite her injuries, she managed to reach the Casilino hospital emergency room, where doctors confirmed clear signs of violent assault. Detectives later traced the culprit -- a 26-year-old Gambian construction worker captured on local CCTV. He admitted being under the influence of drugs at the time. The same man was also linked to another rape just days later, when a 44-year-old woman was attacked at a bus stop. He is now locked up in Regina Coeli prison. But the nightmare in Tor Tre Teste didn't end there. On October 25, just weeks after the dog-walker attack, up to five migrants targeted a young Italian couple parked quietly in a corner of the same park. The pair -- both naked -- had stopped their car on what should have been a calm evening in the eastern suburbs of Rome. But within minutes a gang surrounded the vehicle, savaging the car in a crazed outburst before smashing the windows. Once the glass shattered, one attacker forced open the door and yanked the 24-year-old man out into the darkness. His 18-year-old fiancée was dragged out seconds later as she desperately tried to cover herself with whatever clothing she could grab. The man told police he was pinned back by two migrants as the others hauled his fiancée away from the car. He begged, screamed and threatened the gang -- but was helpless as they allegedly raped the terrified teen metres from the vehicle. His desperate cries went unheard. After the assault, the attackers grabbed the couple's belongings and fled into the night. The traumatised pair immediately reported the attack. Rome's Flying Squad launched a major investigation, quickly identifying suspects as the hunt widened across Italy. Two Moroccan men were arrested in the capital within days. A third suspect was tracked down in Venice and detained just recently.
The leader of the transgender murder cult, the "Zizians," appeared in court and turned it into an anti-trans-"genocide" freakshow.
Note that this is a man -- as much a man as garret, or, actually, 45% more of a man, now that I think of it -- but of course the media is going to refer to him as "her." I can't be bothered correcting them.The alleged leader of a cultlike group linked to several killings made her first appearance in federal court Monday, denouncing the government and its case against her as a "genocide" against transgender people. Ziz LaSota, who was originally charged under what her attorney referred to as her deadname, gave meandering answers at her initial appearance and arraignment in U.S. District Court in downtown Baltimore related to a Western Maryland gun arrest, which ended what had been a cross-country search. She refused to stand when the judge entered the courtroom, or when entering her plea of not guilty. "Your government is currently going around scooping up brown people and disappearing them," the 33-year-old LaSota said when asked by U.S. Magistrate Judge Douglas R. Miller if she understood the charges she faces. "I'm transgender, and the intentions of this regime towards transgender people are very clear: genocide." ... The Zizians have been tied to the killing of a U.S. Border Patrol agent near the Canadian border in January and five other homicides in Vermont, Pennsylvania and California, though the exact role of LaSota, who faked her death in 2022, is unclear and she has not been charged in those deaths. She's been seen at crime scenes, questioned by authorities and, in one instance, arrested on charges of obstructing police in Pennsylvania. The Associated Press has reported that the Zizians are a group of young, highly intelligent computer scientists, most of them in their 20s and 30s, who met online, shared anarchist beliefs and became increasingly violent. Their online writings span topics from radical veganism to gender identity to artificial intelligence. LaSota, the apparent leader and a former computer programmer, believes that the two hemispheres of the human brain can operate separately from one another, with one side holding different beliefs and existing as a different gender than the other, The Associated Press reported. Alleged Zizian member Teresa Youngblut is charged with the murder of border agent David Maland in Vermont, and federal authorities have said they will seek the death penalty.
... As the judge asked basic questions such as whether she had read the indictment and understood the maximum possible penalties, LaSota chided the "mock proceedings" and said Miller was a "participant in an organized crime ring" led by the "states united in slavery." Miller struggled to get LaSota to answer basic questions. Please state your name for the record, the court clerk said. "Justice," she replied. What is your age? "Timeless." What year were you born? "I have been born many times."

Jake Tapper's ever-ready WITHOUT EVIDENCE chyron was unavailable for comment by the deadline for this post's publication. Candace Owens and Joy Reid are now spinning similar conspiracy theories.
ABC News might soon find itself staring down another expensive defamation lawsuit from President Trump, and honestly, it wouldn't come as a shock. On a recent episode of The View, Joy Behar confidently claimed that it was "obvious" Trump was a pedophile connected with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, implicating him in Epstein's crimes. This wild accusation came without a shred of evidence tying Trump to Epstein's criminal activities. In fact, Trump is arguably one of the few prominent figures who did the right thing and severed ties with Epstein years ago, unlike many Democrats who have since been ensnared in the fallout.
... But, according to Jay Behar, it's Trump's guilt that's self-evident. "But isn't it obvious he was -- that Trump was involved with Epstein?! I mean--" she said, as Sunny Hostin immediately backed her up with, "He's mentioned over a thousand times." Behar escalated from there. "There are more pictures with Epstein than pictures of Kim Kardashian of herself!" she declared, thrilled with her own exaggeration. Believe it or not, Behar continued to push the narrative: "How many more things do we have to see before people believe that he was involved with Epstein?!"

World’s Strongest Woman winner stripped of title after organizers discovered she was born a man https://t.co/JsqSD9sjfM pic.twitter.com/96RI7GJDqq
— New York Post (@nypost) November 25, 2025
The controversial winner of the World's Strongest Woman competition was stripped of her title Tuesday after organizers claimed the hulking American never told them she was born a man. Jammie Booker was disqualified just days after she destroyed the competition at the Official Strongman Games World Championship in Arlington, Texas over the weekend. Organizers said Booker, from Philadelphia, violated the contest's rules, which clearly stipulate that athletes must compete in the category that aligns with their biological sex at birth. "It appears that an athlete who is biologically male and who now identifies as female competed in the Women's Open category," organizers said in a social media statement announcing the decision. "Official Strongman officials were unaware of this fact ahead of the competition and we have been urgently investigating since being informed."
Explore More "Had we been aware, or had this been declared at any point before or during the competition, this athlete would not have been permitted to compete in the Woman's Open category," they added. The move comes after the runner-up, UK lifter Andrea Thompson, was filmed storming off the podium as she raged about the "bulls--t" decision to award the title to Booker. Thompson is now the winner, which many online supporters had called her all along.

Trannies aren't a race. Furthermore, those who commit themselves to transgenderism and mutilate themselves become sterile. They can't breed among themselves. They will die out on their own if no more people are convinced to go through with it. It's a self-inflicted "genocide."

I think it was 1968 when the American Psychiatric Association was worn out from the heckling from the gay mafia. Until then, the APA called homosexuality a mental illness (same sex attraction or something). And just like that, the APA dropped it. And here we are.

People don't seem to understand that they're already transitioning from boomer hate to genX hate. All the genX memes are going away and you're seeing younger groups start into suddenly realizing, no actually it's really the genX that caused all our problems! Yeah!
You're going to see it more and more as boomers die off. Don't be surprised when you start to hear from them that they had always been at war with genX.

The program continued with subsequent arrivals, some "paroled" after September 2023, who were also eligible for specific benefits.
BUT NOW many Afghan parolees who arrived between July 31, 2021, and September 30, 2022, were eligible for benefits until March 31, 2023, or the end of their parole term, whichever was later. Since then, many have lost access to these programs and don't have other protections like asylum. They might receive a notice to appear in court and face deportation proceedings. 😭 /S

Editors Confront New Problem: AI Slop "Written" by Scam "Journalists"
I guess as a threshold question, we have to ask: Is AI slop any worse than the leftwing human slop that "journalists" spit out? After all, they just "write" their articles straight from DNC press releases.
But I can relate. As I keep posting in the Cafes: "This had better not be AI." It's an annoying thing to constantly have to be on guard that you're being scammed. Even though it's no big deal if I post AI slop in the Cafe -- could anything be lower stakes? -- there's just a personal aversion to being tricked. And so I imagine that leftwing editors are annoyed at having to double-check if the articles submitted to them by freelance "journalists" are "real" articles -- put together with the normal amounts of human, or superhuman, bias and narrow-minded PMC provincialism -- or just fake biased articles shit out of Google's biased AI.An editor at The Local became suspicious of one of his "journalists."
After putting out an open call to "journalists" for story pitches about the privatization of Canadian healthcare, he got one he liked.
A suspicious pitch from a freelancer led editor Nicholas Hune-Brown to dig into their past work. By the end, four publications, including The Guardian and Dwell, had removed articles from their sites.
This had better not be AI.
The writer, Victoria Goldiee, introduced herself as having written for The Globe and Mail, The Walrus, and Maisonneuve--Canadian outlets that publish the same kind of feature writing we do. ...
When I googled her, I saw that Victoria had written stories for a set of publications that collectively painted the picture of an ambitious young freelancer on the rise--short pieces in prestigious outlets like The Cut and The Guardian, lifestyle features in titles like Architectural Digest and Dwell, and in-depth reporting in non-profit and industry publications like Outrider and the Journal of the Law Society of Scotland. Her headshot was of a youthful Black woman. She was, according to her author bio, "a writer with a keen focus on sharing the untold stories of underrepresented communities in the media." At the next editorial story meeting, we decided to take a shot on Victoria and assign the story. Then I began looking more closely at her work. There were some red flags. The first question I had was whether she was actually in Toronto when so many of her bylines were in New York magazines and British newspapers. And how had she managed to do so many interviews already? Doing so much reporting without the guarantee of pay felt like a big gamble. When I googled "Victoria Goldiee" with the names of the Canadian publications she said she'd written for, there were no results. We reached out to Danielle Martin, one of the doctors Victoria claimed she'd interviewed. Martin said she'd never heard of her. I emailed Victoria back: "Are those quotes from your own interviews? And do you mind sending along some clippings, perhaps from your Walrus or Maisonneuve stories?" She sent a lengthy reply the next day. "The quotes I included in the pitch are from original interviews I've conducted over the past few weeks," she insisted. "In terms of previous work, I write a regular newsletter for The Walrus, which gives a good sense of my ability to balance accessibility with depth while speaking to a broad audience." She attached a link to The Walrus's "Lab Insider" newsletter that did not have her byline. "I can 100% confirm that they do not write the Lab Insider newsletter," wrote Tracie Jones from The Walrus when I emailed. "How odd to say they do!" Victoria's stilted email, and a closer read of the original pitch, revealed what should have been clear from the start: with its rote phrasing ("This story matters because of... It is timely because of... It fits your readership because of..."), it had all the hallmarks of an AI-generated piece of writing.
I was embarrassed. I had been naively operating with a pre-ChatGPT mindset, still assuming a pitch's ideas and prose were actually connected to the person who sent it. Worse, the reason the pitch had been appealing to me to begin with was likely because a large language model somewhere was remixing my own prompt asking for stories where "health and money collide," flattering me by sending me back what I wanted to hear. But if Victoria's pitch appeared to be an AI-generated fabrication, and if she was making up interviews and bylines, what to make of her long list of publications?
An investigation solidified the pattern: Publications this person said she had written for said they had published no pieces by her, and people she quoted in interviews said they'd never spoken to her.
The designers he contacted had no memory of ever having been contacted by this person.
"The quotation did not come from me and, to the best of my recollection, I have never met or spoken to Victoria Goldiee," Elaine Sutherland, professor emerita at the University of Stirling, wrote me. What was even more unsettling, though, was that the sentiments in the soundbite reflected her real beliefs. "The quotation attributed to me is the sort of thing I might say," she wrote. A month after that article, a Victoria Goldiee story in the design publication Dwell--"How to Turn Your Home's Neglected Corners Into Design Gold"--featured a series of quotes purported to be from a wide array of international designers and architects, from Japan to England to California. A cursory read raised questions that probably should have been asked by editors to begin with. Namely, had a freelancer writing an affiliate-link-laden article about putting credenzas in your living room's corners actually interviewed 10 of the world's top designers and architects?
The stories had the characteristic weirdness of articles written by a large language model--invented anecdotes from regular people who didn't appear to exist accompanied by expert commentary from public figures who do, with some biographical details mangled, who are made to voice "quotes" that sound, broadly, like something they might say.Eventually he gets her to take his phone call, and finds that she's making up more details as she speaks to him. For example, when asked where she lives in Toronto, she answers "Bloor," which is one of the first streets you would see if you googled "what are some streets in Toronto."
Yeah it's probably Nigeria, one of the hubs of the bustling America First internet community.
I don't think I've ever spoken to someone who I suspected was lying to me with each and every response. I also don't know if I've interviewed anyone I so desperately wanted to hear the truth from. I had so many questions. Was the person on the phone even the same person whose writing was online? Where did she actually live--if not "Bloor," was it the States? The U.K.? Or, as suggested by some of her writing, Nigeria?
... Every media era gets the fabulists it deserves. If Stephen Glass, Jayson Blair and the other late 20th century fakers were looking for the prestige and power that came with journalism in that moment, then this generation's internet scammers are scavenging in the wreckage of a degraded media environment. They're taking advantage of an ecosystem uniquely susceptible to fraud--where publications with prestigious names publish rickety journalism under their brands, where fact-checkers have been axed and editors are overworked, where technology has made falsifying pitches and entire articles trivially easy, and where decades of devaluing journalism as simply more "content" have blurred the lines so much it can be difficult to remember where they were to begin with. ... My favourite "Victoria Goldiee" story is a piece she published in The Guardian just last month. It's a first-person essay without quotes, and thus difficult to fact-check.Steven Glass discovered that it was easy to fool the fact-check system: Just quote "people" who are entirely made-up. Fake people do not call into magazines demanding a retraction, after all. Jayson Blair attributed fake but non-controversial quotes to people he never spoke to. Like, if he was supposedly in New Orleans covering a hurricane -- but in fact never left his NYC apartment -- he'd make up a quote for someone he saw named in someone else's article, but make up a "new quote" for him, like, "The hurricane was bad, but the clean up might even be more stressful." Something completely empty and anodyne that no one would bother calling up an editor asking for a retraction, because it's just such a nothingburger. One of the people Blair made up quotes for was later asked why he hadn't called the paper to say he'd never said that. His answer was illuminating, and true: Because, the man said, I just sort of figured that's what you in the media do all the time.

AI is sometimes like an overeager puppy, just willing to do anything to please its master. It has no morals or ethics of its own, and doesn't consider the consequences just as long as it can make its user happy by providing him with something shiny.
Of course, when the user has no morals or ethics either, the problem is exacerbated.

Another interesting point is that the AI writer was using AI to generate quotes from people with enough online presence that the AI would say stuff "that sounded like something they would say."
So they didn't complain because it sounded right. This is diabolical.

Something one should do to the maximum extent possible is to lock down credit reporting with a credit freeze (even if you do not use credit), using monitoring services for any accounts, etc. opened or attempted to be opened, remove as much as you can from your digital footprint from databrokers using Optery, Incogni, Privacy Bee, etc.
Most will let you run an initial scan for free to determine how much data is out there on you and who has it. I would also suggest closing old accounts at online vendors where you have not done business with and perhaps using email aliases even.
Only the paranoid will survive what is coming regarding scams.

This is exactly the bullshit I have to deal with in trying to find an agent for my book. The agents are all AWFLs or black or dykes, and every single one of them has the same “looking for underrepresented communities” bullshit. Underrepresented? Has anyone been to the bookstore lately? Other than a few older established white guys, all the books are from ‘underrepresented’ women and blacks and dykes.

It's kind of ludicrous to think of any regular poster here using AI unless they're a troll or a bot .
Posted by: FenelonSpoke at November 26, 2025 05:37 PM (lcMcX)
While it's true that some users might misuse AI for trolling or deception, it's also reasonable for many regular posters to use AI tools to help organize their thoughts, improve clarity, or overcome language barriers.
The concern isn't necessarily about authenticity, but about the potential for reduced authenticity and critical thinking in online discourse.
Many people use AI for constructive purposes, such as structuring arguments or refining writing, especially on platforms where clear communication is valued.
Dismissing all AI-assisted posts as inauthentic overlooks the nuanced ways people integrate these tools into their online interactions.

It's always about the message. Then it's about the physical characteristics of the perspective employee. It's rarely about merit unless there are finances involved.
And, here's the thing. AI can be coaxed to write in a particular style. For example, I could instruct AI to write a 500 word article on "down trodden immigrants." I could instruct AI to write it in the style of someone like Leslie Stahl. The management now has an opportunity. A young, presumable minimal salary candidate, who writes just as well (almost exactly) like Leslie Stahl. Do the math.

These people are maybe not crazy, they have been driven crazy. In their world view, what they are doing seem rational. Because they are marinated in lies and disinformation constantly. Michelle Obama really believes that hair straightening for black women is a huge concern for the rest of the world...because that is what the internet fed her. Crazy Tennessee Karen Prime believes her insane behavior is justified and perfectly rational, and so do her voters, because they all read the same phony crap, day after day.
The people who fall for this crap spend all day on the internet, and have jobs where they scarcely interact with anyone, if they have jobs at all.

It's extremely useful and a big time saver for complicated, tedious, work such as that.
But I wouldn't trust an AI generated text 100%
I even double-check the AI result for food recipes with the sources, or scroll further down the search results, past the AI response, and actually check the pages/videos it's getting info from. Half the time it has mixed and melded different recipes from several sources and has gotten things like oven temps and time to bake wrong.
LLM Generative AI is really not reliable for a lot of things due mainly to the reward/punishment training they receive.
They are trained to output anything they can come up with to please the user, and that's exactly what causes the hallucinations and lies.

Some of those false positives come from using Grammerly and/or grammar checking software that suggests alternative phrasing already built into many word processing software like Word.

The most brutal (written) final I ever had was Nuclear Power School. Allotted 4 hours and covered every topic from the course. I told my advisor that I was leaving after 3 and, fortunately, it only took me 2:58 to finish.
The most brutal (non-written) final I ever had was Nuclear Power Prototype. Seven hour oral exam. Thought I'd failed at the end of it. Ended up getting the highest score in my class.

At the end of the day - every pixel is - at best, depending on your package - three digits from 0 to 255.
So you can draw a "line" - and enhance the pixels next to that line. Its just data manipulation.
But you know that. Others here have no concept of that.

No doubt.
AI has saved me hours of work in the past few months alone just using it to capture subjects and removing background from photos. It's amazingly accurate even on grabbing small details and does about 95% of the work for me.
It's a freaking miracle to me with that part alone.

Both, I took a graduate Presidential Elections class with graduate students from a top journalism school.
They did not understand the material nor did they engage much with the rest of the other graduate students. These proto journalists could not do the math, stats, nor understand the basics of logic.
All they knew was self promoting narrative construction, not creating a reasoned summary or argument.

Did a project for a company that makes X-Ray scanners for contraband at the border. We took the pictures and looked for unusual items like shapes in bumper, engine areas, guns in the luggage. Pretty interesting, but the only AI was taking the results of different sorts of measurements on the image and constructing a 'score' as to if this was super suspicious or no big deal and write it on the picture for the border inspector.

The senior electrician really disliked the guy who was my mentor and was unhappy that I qualified to take the oral board before his student did so he rigged the board.

Since we're now talking about walking to school uphill - both ways! - my most difficult exam was a 3 hour "take-home" test on Finite Element Analysis. The kicker was that I had another class in the middle of the time allocated for the exam. I spoke to the professor and he replied that I was one of his best undergraduate students and didn't need the full 3 hours. ... Uh ... thanks for the complement?

They were marketing a camera 3-4 years ago that had no lenses, no image sensor at all. But it did have gps and a compass. You pointed in a direction and pressed a button. Then it would assemble a picture based on a learning model trained on geospatial image data and print out a color image of it for you. An app on a phone could do the same but people were paying for this.

Imagine your life on a map. Now imagine taking all those long straight lines of plane flights and collapsing them, like pinching a fancy hologram "Minority Report" style, so that all the airports you departed from and arrived at are all reduced to a single point -- The Airport -- with only your overland travels depicted around it. Now imagine doing the same to all the long straight lines of freeway travel, collapsing every on-ramp and off-ramp you ever took into The Exit.
What would the radius of your tactile life experiences be, if we disregard the kinda-sorta "slow teleportation" of shuttling in containers? Would you (virtually) have been born, lived, and died in a smallish circle, similar to the proverbial medieval peasant? I think that our social elites lives in the most insidious monocultural bubble: one specifically designed to fool them into thinking that they aren't in one at all.

They're using it more and more but it's nowhere near perfect yet.
To make an AI video you have to make hundreds of very short clips and splice them together to make the entire ad. They have to basically storyboard out the entire commercial, then prompt the AI to do one quick shot, then another, and then another, all while keeping the actors/subjects consistent as well as backgrounds and sets, etc.
It's not perfect yet, but it has to be cheaper than hiring an entire crew for millions of dollars to make a 30 second ad.
There's no AI available yet that can output an entire movie in a few hours, but it'll be here eventually, and at that point Hollywood is truly cooked until people get tired of watching fake AI entertainment and want something real for nostalgia reasons if nothing else.

When I was a grader in college we had a class like that. It was an early computer science class, but in a semester it worked UP to assembly language from abstract basics, stopping at Turing machines for a bit.
The college had for some reason opened up this class to the Liberal Arts Linguistic students (apparently language is language) so a whole mess of LA students hit a buzz saw. The average was in the 20s to 30s with the CS students being decent but a tad low and a mountain 10-20 percent.

Ogilvy said decades ago that the problem with the ad industry was ad buyers. They wanted to see what the end product would look like before picking an agency. So, the agencies would inevitably do subpar work, since the proposal stage was done as cheaply as possible due to being unpaid; and then if they got the contract, the real thing was based on that junk. He would get calls from people saying they liked his work and wondered why he didn't submit a proposal, and his answer was always the same: they could either hire him based on his prior work (which they admitted they liked), or not hire him, but he wouldn't participate in a system structurally designed to produce crap.
If the ad buyers still refuse to reform themselves, then they will get AI slop, since that it makes it cheaper to produce the crap they incentivize.
