Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Perverted ONTWhen ladies need it bad, they have a go-to move: I Remember When “Eat My Ass” Was Fighting Words ‘Edible Anus’ Company Makes Chocolate Molds of Your (Or a Loved One’s) Butthole I wonder if there's an “asshole code” like the candy code, so you can tell which asshole is which? “Oooh, gimme that one it's full of cream!” or “Yuck! I got a coconut asshole” And, of course in the delightful year of 2019, they have a strong social media presence: Are Pride Parades Kid-Friendly? Parents Say Children Can Handle The Kink Tell me again how the left isn't trying to normalize pedophilia. And why shouldn't they? I believe that a great deal (not all, certainly, but a great deal) of one's sexual identity comes from the way in which they become aware of their sexual nature, and if that is done in the context of kinks or perversions than they will be more likely to incorporate those kinks or perversions into their own sexual lives. From a pervert's POV it's win/win. CNN Finally Stopped Covering It Last Week An intentional depressurization would have been an obvious way—and probably the only way—to subdue a potentially unruly cabin in an airplane that was going to remain in flight for hours to come. In the cabin, the effect would have gone unnoticed but for the sudden appearance of the drop-down oxygen masks and perhaps the cabin crew’s use of the few portable units of similar design. None of those cabin masks was intended for more than about 15 minutes of use during emergency descents to altitudes below 13,000 feet; they would have been of no value at all cruising at 40,000 feet. The cabin occupants would have become incapacitated within a couple of minutes, lost consciousness, and gently died without any choking or gasping for air. The scene would have been dimly lit by the emergency lights, with the dead belted into their seats, their faces nestled in the worthless oxygen masks dangling on tubes from the ceiling.We surrender control, or at least the illusion of control, over our own lives every time we step on a jetliner. It's scary to think that one madman could end our lives and we'd be helpless to stop it, but well, there ya go. Gee-Haw Wimmy Diddle I just wanted to type Gee-Haw Wimmy Diddle.

And I actually did have to eat Kaboom. Fuck Kaboom, Spam, and Powdered Milk. And the friggin' shit she called Homemade Vegetable Soup.

re the JBS - when I was in high school [many moons ago...], I worked for a guy who had left the JBS - I only knew this because he would send me down to their local HQ - they sold those 'lifetime lightbulbs'. I'd get the bulbs and bring 'em back to the office. I asked him, having seen the lit they had, why he left the org. "Sometimes, you can know too much." Btw, he was a WWII vet, so that was really chilling. My .02$

I've been reading up a bit on MH370 lately. Reputable investigators agree on the theory that Capt Zaharie is the prime suspect, the flight was controlled at least until it reached the Indian Ocean and turned south. There is some disagreement into the final moments before impact by investigators, some say the plane went into a spiral dive after the second impact. One however believes based on the flaperon and flap found on Reunion Island that the flaps were extended on impact which could only be done if the plane was under pilot control until the very end. Such an approach would extend the glide range 100 nautical miles after flameout and would keep the plane relatively intact, leaving as little floating debris as possible.
It also seems that the Malaysian government isn't being very upfront with their information. It's believed they know more about Zaharie's mental condition than they're letting on. It's possible that as long as it's possible to blame plane malfunction for the crash instead of the pilot blowing a gasket, the government owned airline can avoid accountability. They may not WANT the plane to be found. Posted by: kbdabear at June 20, 2019 10:30 PM (0Ntuf) 167

The most hopeful news I heard today was that four out of ten black people oppose reparations.
Compare and contrast to whiny liberal arts majors with student loans - what percentage of them do you think oppose Warren's student loan forgiveness proposal? The D's are obviously running scared - they are terrified that the Trump Economy may be markedly increasing support for Trump among blacks. Thus, the Democrats promising that blacks will get buckets of Free Money when they return to power. Blacks who support reparations aren't going to vote for a Republican under any circumstances. But for the 40% who don't support reparations, one can at least make the case that voting for Trump serves their interests better than voting for a patronizing Democrat.

Tariffs are a tax. That's all they are.
The difference is who, on paper, is responsible for paying for it. Much like a VAT, or the gas tax, or a soda tax, or a rain tax, or a tax on Thingy. It ends up being more expensive for consumers because, surprise surprise, the merchants tend to pass along increased costs while holding onto any savings. And the funds go into the federal government, for good or for ill. But if tariffs are bad, because it increases costs to consumers, then they should be all about repealing gas taxes, cigarette taxes, sales taxes, alcohol taxes, etc. No. Those [Parent][Copulators] will happily increase the tax on those, and many more things. But God help you if you try and tax something from another country. ---------------------- On a side note, I seem to remember one of the grievances of the South prior to the Civil War had to do with taxes. Might have been Tariffs on European goods, to make the more expensive compared to the goods from the North. Given that we fought a war with the South over tariffs as well, it's quite likely that anyone that is distinctly opposed to tariffs is a racist who Wants To Put You Back In Chains! Or an elderly Democratic hopeful for the Presidency. Not that those two are mutually exclusive. Posted by: Another Anon at June 20, 2019 10:50 PM (G6cQ+) 264

Compare and contrast to whiny liberal arts majors with student loans - what percentage of them do you think oppose Warren's student loan forgiveness proposal?
For fun, forgive student loans, but don't change the tax code that states that forgiven loans are income, and make the slight modification that taxes on forgiven student loans are due immediately. Day 1: Muffy gets an official letter from the Federal government announcing that her six-figure student loan has been forgiven. She excitedly buys a new Iphone, a new computer, a lot of expensive clothing, makes reservations for a Hawaiian vacation, and gets shift-faced drunk at an expensive bar that evening out of sheer happiness. Day 2: Muffy gets a demand letter from the IRS demanding that she immediately pay $40,000 in Federal income taxes on her forgiven student loan debt. Day 3: Since Muffy of course lives in a progressive blue state, she also gets a demand letter from the state tax authorities demanding an additional $10,000 or so in state income taxes.

I like fried spam.
We were lower middle class, Mom an operating room nurse and Dad an air force officer, and we moved every 18 months my first 15 years. It was food that went with other food, which my Mom, who wasn't much of a cook but a Hell of an operating room nurse, could successfully make for us. So, I like spam.

There are Hawaiian Islands that only natives can go to and hunt wild pigs with dogs, a guy told me. Dog and knife hunting where the dogs corner the pig and the guy with big balls and a knife goes in. Never saw it but I bet the pig is tasty.

On a side note, I seem to remember one of the
grievances of the South prior to the Civil War had to do with taxes. Might have been Tariffs on European goods, to make the more expensive compared to the goods from the North. Given that we fought a war with the South over tariffs as well, it's quite likely that anyone that is distinctly opposed to tariffs is a racist who Wants To Put You Back In Chains! Or an elderly Democratic hopeful for the Presidency. Not that those two are mutually exclusive. Posted by: Another Anon at June 20, 2019 10:50 PM (G6cQ+) the tariffs were a major issue in the south since the Northern manufacturing states like them because they kept out British and French manufacturers, and kept the price high for manufactured products AND made the northern manufactured goods more desirable, since they were cheaper without the tariffs. The tariff issue was not resolved until the Congress landed on the happy medium of making it meaningless by instituting the withholding income tax. Which is even greater scope cost and invasiveness. Boy I am glad we did that too, think of all the unrest the tariff was creating. Posted by: Kindltot at June 20, 2019 10:59 PM (hSQmw) Posted by: Kindltot at June 20, 2019 11:00 PM (hSQmw) 315

It is insane.
Posted by: Ladyl ________ Of course, it is. In a sane world, Iran would be Israel's biggest trading partner, and Iran would add a small tariff to all its goods as recompense for Cyrus setting them free way back when. Israel would do the same as a reminder that they took out the nukes that (let's face it) could have been pointed either way. As security partners they'd be more effective than NATO. Together they could tell the Arabs to deal with the so-called Palestinians themselves, or just ship them all off to China. Show them the Three Gorges Dam. "See that lake? A million people used to live there. They got moved. They had no say. They dealt with it." Then, maybe, Israel can give them reparations to the tune of eighty bucks which is all that land was worth before the Jews transformed it into a paradise. But no.

Robert Welch was absolutely right. And a Lot of people did know it at the time.
Robert Welch co-founded the John Birch Society. The John Birch society was right, too. The day the John Birch society was run out of the GOP by the East Coast establishment was the day the GOP-e took over all control of it. Reagan made a little bit of pushback, but Bush Sr. neutralized that as much as possible, and killed what was left by '92. The GOP-e was always a front of the Uniparty, and they had 50 years of running everything without any real pushback, until now. And they were dead set on carrying out everything Robert Welch said they were going to do. Posted by: tom servo at June 20, 2019 11:12 PM (V2Yro) 358

> See, when Thor and Loki went to visit the giants, and Skymir brought them to his hall, they had a number of contests,
I like the one where the giants have stolen Thor's hammer, and the head giant demands Freya's hand in marriage to give it back. So, they dress up Thor in drag, with a veil, and send him off to "get married" as Freya. Before the marriage occurs, "Freya" demands to see the hammer. When Freya/Thor gets his hands on it, he proceeds to bash out the brains of every giant at the feast. From which we can conclude that the Vikings were not all that fond of gay marriage?

It's been kind of nice to get calmer as one gets older - it might have to do with being more at peace with myself. I confess that in earlier years, I showed real talent at being an asshole , and it is oh so easy online - and I still think all those thoughts, but I've taught myself that nobody thinks those things are as funny as I think they are, and if you want to stick around any place for very long, you really gotta learn to self-censor a lot. Part of the perverseness to being an ass is that to be really good at it, you've got to have enough perception of other people to sense where the knife is really going to hurt the most when you jab it in - but that's no way to live, or to treat friends. but for those who aren't friends - I'm still banned from every left wing greeny weeny blog, and all prog news sites, and all of ABC, and SB Nation, and Lucianne (I still don't know why) and I never once swore or was vulgar or violated their terms. But their chains are so easy to pull. And I never even tried twitter, it seemed like way too much work to get set up on something I know I would be tossed off of in 24 hours.

I think in order to sell them on the regular meat market you'd have to round them up (easier said than done), test them for diseases, then kill them in a USDA-approved slaughterhouse with proper cooling and so on.

I am not a pig expert, but I can contribute an anecdote. Europeans have been dealing with pigs and cold cuts for a long long time. I have an on again off again in Italy Italian girlfriend (mostly off, but twenty years of failing ain't nothin'). Her mother came out with a cold cut once that was amazinig.

round them up (easier said than done), test them for diseases, then kill them in a USDA-approved slaughterhouse with proper cooling and so on. Shooting and field-dressing them in the woods wouldn't be acceptable. Too bad. Some competition with the Italian or European cured meat market. I think Texas prosciutto would sell.

the giants have stolen Thor's hammer, and the head giant demands Freya's hand in marriage to give it back. So, they dress up Thor in drag, with a veil, and send him off to
"get married" as Freya. Before the marriage occurs, "Freya" demands to see the hammer. When Freya/Thor gets his hands on it, he proceeds to bash out the brains of every giant at the feast. aka, every Bugs Bunny episode ever. Posted by: boulder t'hobo at June 20, 2019 11:48 PM (ykYG2) 449

There are a lot of details (like the nine realms of the afterlife that I can't keep straight even when I'm reading about them) so I keep it simple. Thor and Loki were actual characters in Norse mythology. They weren't so much on the sides of good and evil -- the dichotomy was order versus chaos.

Russia has no natural boundaries, so their tendency is to grab as much territory as they can, because you never know when the worm is going to turn and the Enemy will be at the gates of Moscow. It's a lot simpler when you have an ocean boundary, and have a similar country to the north (which you are much more powerful than), and a less similar country to the south (which you are also much more powerful than).

The idea that we don't actually want their shithole countries just doesn't make any sense to them. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at June 20, 2019 11:48 PM (Vy4a0) Yup. We are very different from all of them. America, outside of the land on this continent that G-d promised to us from sea to sea, has never had any interest in taking foreign lands. We could have taken all of central and south America if we cared. We could have taken the pacific. We could have had anything but we didn't want any of it. All America ever wanted to do with foreigners was business. We like to work and we like to make and sell stuff. We like to have places stable enough that they can lead civilized lives and make money and spend it on shit we sell! We tried to stabilize central and south american societies by the boatload ... just to make them rich enough to do business with us ... but they just wouldn't have it. We didn't want their countries. We didn't want their stuff. We wanted exactly the opposite, for them to buy our stuff. But almost all of the world fails to understand this because America is really one of the only places that operates with this mindset (or used to) the same way that all the world fails to really understand our governmental system because we have always been, and remain, pretty much unique in the world (the way America has always liked it!).

I have to disagree with the video on poltical systems.
Right and left are relative terms. They mean, and have meant different things under different circumstances. Often, in the past, the left was in favor of relaxing laws, that is, less government. He can define it his way, but it is an over simplification. It would be better if he just redefined a new term and dropped the Left and Right stuff. On fascism, it is important to clarify that if you just look at populism, then marxism is on the left, and fascism is on the right (historically). Both are big government. Neither is related to the US Right. In US terms, both are on the Left, but in populist terms, they are right and left. The Left looks to blame the rich, the Right looks to blame foreigners. But that is a separate, limited perspective. Posted by: Gentlemen, this is democracy manifest at June 21, 2019 12:11 AM (LWu6U) 511

Something about the muzzie lack of empathy that makes it possible. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at June 21, 2019 12:16 AM That (Egypt air) seemed more jihaidiot than just suicide. The Capt of 370 didn't seem to be one of that breed. He let the plane go for 6 plus hours. Maybe he wanted his 72 Ruth Bader Ginsburg's, who knows. But people in that state are not rational. Look at the people who off their family and then themselves. So fckd up. My best guess is it was him, maybe not, but. Yea. I think so. Posted by: Minnfidel at June 21, 2019 12:20 AM (i5w/I) 533

The fact that adults who bring minors to things like the Folsom Street Fair and its imitators in San Francisco aren't immediately arrested just shows how completely depraved SF is.
Actually, that raises a set of interesting questions for Kamala Harris, former district attorney for San Francisco. Ms. Harris, have you ever been to the Folsom Street Fair? When you were district attorney, were you aware that minors were in attendance at the Folsom Street Fair? As district attorney, did you think that it was your responsibility to keep minors from attending the Folsom Street Fair? Did you ever discuss with the San Francisco Police Department the possibility of arresting and prosecuting people who brought minors to the Folsom Street Fair? If not, why not? ...and so on.

I got a cordless drill/driver the other day for driving some screws for that deer fence we're putting up. It was Lowe's special Kobalt, 20V unit, $99, with a charge a 2 A-hr battery. I must say I'm impressed. I was dismissive of cordless tools, remembering the 1st generation back in the late '80s and into the 90s. Not much torque and the batteries wouldn't last, both in terms of charge holding and durability. So I had just mostly stayed away from them. But this this one has great torque, driving those 3" wood screws nicely, and the battery holds up. Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at June 21, 2019 12:26 AM (NMAzL) 545

This one has the brushless motor. That term is basically an understatement. It's essentially an inverter driving an AC synchronous motor. The controller switches current between the phase coils as the rotor rotates. And it adjusts frequency on the fly to match speed. It's essentially a small hand held variable speed AC drive. The only thing I notice with this, is a little delay when you squeeze the trigger. When it's been off for a few seconds, I think the electronics go to sleep or something to save power, and wake back up when you first depress the trigger. It will respond instantly if you haven't waited too long. Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at June 21, 2019 12:41 AM (NMAzL) 577

Inverters do -- I don't know about this, as I haven't tried a radio near it. I have an ESAB MIG cart, inverter driven. That thing would tear up reception. Arcs can do that themselves, but this thing gets it all over the mains. The way the house and shop are wired is as follows. I ran three-phase to the shop, and so Mama Duke pulled all three phases out. The House is on A, call it. Or black, for the black, red, blue standard phase color scheme. It's 208V, and I originally had it between A and B. Well, that tore up the TV and radios in the house. Going right through the primary on the transformers. It's a short distance between the shop bank and the house transformer. I moved it between B and C, and that fixed it.

I almost got 480Y/277V, but the equipment would've too expensive. I may yet put in 480V in somewhere, though. 208Y/120V is one of the standard 3-phases. I wanted a high leg, but Mrs. Duke wouldn't do that anymore. I wanted 240V to run a lot of my single phase 230V motors. I ended up just putting some booster transformers in, a 3-unit auto-delta configuration. It was a bit odd ball, because that will give a phase shift, but it didn't matter. I've blown some minds with that setup, and it's not something done much because of said phase shift. Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at June 21, 2019 01:14 AM (NMAzL) 657

The reason that ESAB is so noisy is the inverter front end. It's basically a switching power supply, PWM. THe control is done on the high voltage, lower current side, not the output side. The thing has a stick welding mode, which puts it in constant current mode. One time I was stick welding with it, and noticed something funny. Hot and sweaty as hell. I managed to touch the hot output side. I was grounded really, but I noticed this crazy "tasting the fillings in your teeth" sensation. That was some of that high frequency switching shit, I deduced. I had enough capacitive coupling to get a little high frequency current flowing through me. Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at June 21, 2019 01:19 AM (NMAzL) 665

I'll wade into the cereal/Spam conversations.
In all the mentions of Cap'n Crunch, no one mentioned Cap'n Crunch with Crunchberries. That is the only real Cap'n Crunch. I also like Honey Nut Cheerios, not the bland regular Cheerios. And frosted flakes right out of the box as no milk is necessary (and ensoggens it too much anyway). Now onto Spam. My Mom always had cans of Spam and the corned beef in a can (bully beef) on hand as it was cheap back then, with a long shelf life and readily available for a quickie meal. The canned corned beef I no longer eat but I will spring for the occasional can of Spam, but only when on sale as it is now ridiculous in price. My Mom would slice the Spam, put in a saucepan, cover it with white vinegar and add brown sugar, making a poor man's b-b-q Spam; I guess that was a WWII recipe as fresh meat was severely rationed. Cook it down to a thick syrup. I still love that. The cooked slices make great sandwiches, too. For those being snobby about Spam, when you're really hungry in a SHingTF situation, you'll eat it. Better than tree bark. Now about that canned corned beef hash. Anything canned with potatoes, including plain ol' canned potatoes, is just not right. How friggin' hard is it to cook potatoes? The canned corned beef hash always reminded me of the Ken-L Ration we fed my dog when I was a wee lad. Even though my dog loved Ken-L Ration, and probably that canned corned beef hash stuff if she was ever fed it, I won't eat Ken-L Ration, either. Although if I'm hungry enough, who knows? Canned tuna is basically canned cat food and people eat canned tuna all the time. Posted by: RickZ at June 21, 2019 04:10 AM (Y8PSl) 771

" I've always felt a more useful political continuum from left to right is a line not a circle, but a line that measures individual freedom from government coercion. Thus the "far right" becomes pure anarchy, and the left encompasses all big govt totalitarian systems "
_______ That model doesn't really tell us anything but the ideology behind it. This really applies to all such models. And they are plausible only to the extent one shares the perspective of those who use or make them. Actually, rather less plausible, as they have the added flaw of imposing an ideological framework which often has no real relation to what the actual participants in history saw themselves as facing. It's notable in this case that the "right" and "left" as defined above doesn't map well with the actual use of those terms. The only way models can work, IMO, is if they are a. Ad hoc; narrowly confined to particular times and places, and b. A posteriori; not imposed, but developed to order the actuality under investigation. History isn't philosophy; conflating them does nothing but harm to both. That's what Hegel and Marx did, and look at them. Posted by: Eeyore at June 21, 2019 06:53 AM (VaN/j) 824

The Right vs. Left thing really does not work in any real life situation. Right and Left was (and are) used to describe the same thing called socialism, government control of the people via economy. Hitlers problem was the Jews and Stalins problem moved around based on who he needed to blame today. And today there is no difference in the Progressive leftist and the Alt Right (whatever the fuk that is) as they both need big government and force to control people. Neither side believes in the major western culture ideas of free speech, free markets, self rule (free will), or limited big govt. Posted by: rhennigantx at June 21, 2019 07:01 AM (JFO2v) 834

Posted by: JAS at June 21, 2019 07:04 AM (I5SAg) _______ Still doesn't work. It remains just an imposition of a particular ideology on the events. Such models "work" only for those whose views are imposed. For instance, a current leftist would see such a model as "working" if the x-axis were race, and the y-axis as gender. It's really just imposing a priori notions on reality. And that is no less so if we are inclined to accept the assumptions, as if we reject them. There are probably an infinite number of such models we could construct. Let me cite one hypothetic: highly structured vs loosely structured. That can be significant. It is the most obvious difference between our political system and the British, for instance, cutting across the (relative) similarities. And there are some who will prefer the latter; Mark Steyn has said things implying this, and F H Buckley has pretty much come out and said he does. BTW, I'm inclined to think that the alt-right resembles more the Old, orthodox Marxist Left, than the New. The resemblances to the latter seem to me to occur precisely where the New Left still retains Marxist doctrines, like ideology as superstructure. Well, there is the one point on which alt-R and New-L agree, in not putting economics at the very center. Of course I may be wrong, but in any case this is a good example of where one's model can get in the way of accuracy. Posted by: Eeyore at June 21, 2019 07:20 AM (VaN/j) 865

Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross said that the department can act when officers expressing their opinions erodes public confidence and that he expects to fire some of the officers. "We are equally disgusted by many of the posts that you saw," Mr. Ross said at a news conference Wednesday during which he detailed his actions in regards to the 72 officers. He said he "will not be shy about meting out the appropriate discipline," which could range from a one-day suspension to termination. Pretty amazing statement.

Because I am a little under the weather with a cold, I thought I'd look for Buttigieg's undergrad Harvard thesis. Can't find it.
Little snippets of the thesis are commonly portrayed "America's civilizing mission, to go out into wild and strange lands" based on Puritanical privilege and such. Now, the particular sermon Butt based his idea on was a 1670 Election sermon, by a fellow named Danforth. America certainly had empire-dreams, civilizing dreams, etc. and they weren't always kind. No doubt there. But to base that action, and draw it out all the way out to America fighting communists in Vietnam on Danforth's sermon is major academic gas-lighting. You can read the sermon here: https://tinyurl.com/y4xz93lz Pay attention, esp, to the first two sentences, where Danforth clearly lays forth HIS idea of the Puritan mission, which was to retain the right to worship FREELY, and as they saw it, purely. Kinda contra the 'Equity' Act, which Mayor Pete loves so. But Mayor Pete of the Hamlet is so brilliant, I am probably just not understanding properly.

Hernandez was the person whom dealt with my inquiry and within 2 days I had the money in my account. He contacted me throughout the procedure to make sure everything was running smoothly and also gave me the best deal possible. They worked around my income and found me a suitable monthly price for the repayments that myself and Western Loan Finance were happy with. If you ever want a loan, I would totally recommend Western Loan Finance and to speak to Hernandez. His customer service skills were amazing and he did everything for me within 48 working hours. Thank you so much for your generosity and help Hernandez. You truly are a huge asset to your company. Couldn't have walked out from your office happier than I was!! Thank you!
