The Morning Rant

talking ape.jpg

"We all know that progressivism is an insidious evil, but I'm wondering if only part of it is. That is, one part is evil, and the other merely stupid.

"Kind of like our main political parties.

"Progressivism has a lot of stupid ideas, mostly involving giving away free sh*: free education, free medical care, and now federally-subsidized tampons, so you younger 'ettes can now ride the cotton pony in style. Of course none of this stuff is actually "free", somebody has to pay for it, which is one of the reasons why it's stupid.

"But promising free sh*t isn't necessarily evil. What's evil is when you also tell them: (a) you have a right to it, and (b) if you don't have it, it's because someone is deliberately keeping you from having it. Because once you start going down that path, you create all sorts of bitterness and anger in yourself to people you don't even know who do who-knows-what to keep you from getting what you believe is rightfully yours and you get into the habit, the very bad habit, of blaming your troubles on others.

"And you'll always have a ready excuse for your own laziness or incompetence and the laziness and incompetence of like-minded friends.

"This is not really healthy.

"Larry Elder recently tweeted: 'Half the country thinks there is a free lunch—and that the other half is stopping them from eating it.' Which, in a nutshell, is why one half of the country trying to tear the other half apart.

"And in other words, Mitt Romney is apparently skulking around Twitter under the alias 'Pierre Delecto'. What a cuck."

At first I thought that maybe this was a parody account, or she was being ironic, or something like that. I've been fooled by seemingly outrageous tweets before, and I'm not good at picking up on deadpan humor. But this appears to be serious (also, her account appears to be suspended, which is why we're seeing just the text).

So I see. I had no idea Goldblum's career went back beyond about 1979 or so. Hope was in stuff in the early Sixties, and played Dick Van Dyke's wife in his "new" series in the early '70s.

They admit this connection between supply and demand when it suits them. Hell, they're explicit about taxing things like cigarettes so that people will buy less of them.

The idea that labor will follow the same rules, though, escapes them.

69 Progressivism is a dog's breakfast of every destructive "-ism" in recorded history: communism, socialism, and a few others. Notice the distinction between "progressive values" and the principles that under-gird our nation. You won't find any progressives who ever talk about the rule of law, or personal responsibility, or true equality before the law. These principles are never ever spoken of, as if they're all some sort of taboo words.


What it is is virulent anti-Americanism and if we don't start purging this defective mindset from our political system and our society, we're really going to regret not doing so. Things are already getting way out of hand.

Dagny, if you peruse the aisle of a natural food store, including Whole Foods, etc. you will find a product called a menstrual cup. It is a little rubber cup that folds up and can be inserted in the vagina to catch menstrual flow. You remove it, rinse it out, and use it again!!! Don't forget the patchouli oil on the way out of the store!

Actually, in this case, I used 6 photos because I liked them all and thought they gave a good overview of Goldblum, from young to old. I knew he would be instantly recognizable.

When this menstrual activism nonsense started they said this about women in other countries - third world countries, where it might make more sense that basic supplies might be limited.

However, saying it applies here is crazy. Either they think we're dumb, or they're saying we now have helpless immigrants who brought their dysfunction with them.

That's PREmenstrual. Men typically confuse the crazy PREmenstrual stuff with the messy-lay stuff. It's not contemporaneous. Although debilitating cramps, nausea, diarrhea, headache, backache, indigestion, edema, dizziness, are all real.

My objection is that a left-wing authoritarian dictatorship is a very probable outcome of our current situation, and I don't want it used to keep me in. I'd like for us deplorable kulaks to be able to escape through Mexico, should it become necessary.

Personally I love the movie. Part of what you're picking up on is that it comes off as part of a series of features, sort of like an old movie serial...and not an early installment, either. And the stylings are, well, dated, and not from a period those old serials are associated with. So it's kind of an odd duck all around, though frankly it was THIS >< close to brilliant.

190 re: tampons and pads. Castro has a point with 'tax-free'. Why should greedy Cali or other states be charging sales tax on them? Like groceries this is something that you need to buy and the state(s) could forgo their X cents per dollar tax on tampons the same as they do for eggs and bacon.

Now Julian being a commie idiot prob'ly thinks the state should just provide these products; he should read up on Cuba, where you get a monthly ration of supplies and trying to find a store that had them on the shelves if you have heavy periods and need more is nearly impossible.

232 I think they MSM is not covering the failed apprehension of El Chapo's son/street violence in Mexico last week because it is not a good fit with the narrative that only people wanting a better life/dreamers come over our border.

If we acknowledge that the country on our Southern border is mostly a lawless narco state, and they rely on our open border to move their illegal products - drugs, human (sex slaves, etc.) - into the US then even more people will demand we shut the border down. Not just a wall, but send the cartel people/MS-13 already here home, make them get things settled before we start allowing immigration traffic.

A wild guess would be that El Chapo's people are still paying off politicians and maybe even media to protect them. El Chapo admitted bribing politicians.

252 Ettes, help me out: are feminine menstruation products a major part of your budget?

No. Also they vary in expense. If you buy the highest priced ones available that's more than the cheaper versions. Buying in bulk at like Costco and just regualar tampax saves a lot so they're inexpensive. Buying a pack of 6 of "pearl" scented extravaganza at 7-11 would be pricey.

Posted by: garrett at October 21, 2019 11:56 AM (jTtIQ)

278 "none of this stuff is actually "free", somebody has to pay for it"

In the old days of Real Money that was mostly true. Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) says the government just prints the money as needed. There are few "checks and balances" to MMT, and political malfeasance makes it untenable in the long run (probably) ...


But we have basically lived under MMT for some time now ... with at least $220T (Trillion) in unfunded liabilities, and gargantuan bailouts and subsidies for the elite/corrupt (2Big2Fail or Jail).


And we could go back to days before the Federal Reserve, back even to the "Continental" and various currencies/debts issued by states or Congress. (only 6% from foreigners like France, per this link.
https://tinyurl.com/yxs3dlco

AOC and Warren apparently want unlimited MMT to fund everything (communism via proxy of monetary policy) ... while Trump is moving ahead with limited MMT (ZIRP, NIRP, covert QE, debt to infinity)


This could lead to inflation, which in theory is controlled by taxing people more, but most of this is why unlimited MMT would be so bad. And the USD would be weaker, but all currencies went down the Fiat Currency rabbit hole (what government doesn't want to spend 10x more than they have?)


The question of "who pays" becomes "who works, who collects profits, who makes the decisions on where the fake money gets distributed, when does the fake currency become hyper-inflated?

But really, no one "pays" for infinite fake currency ... the question is who gets left holding the bag (full of worthless paper they thought had real value). Or do we just all get a social credit scored credit card, to fulfill every need, as long as we are good citizens? (underway in China even now?)

96-count on Amazon has a shipping weight of 22.4 ounces (1.4 pounds). I don't know the tare weight on shipping, but let's call it four ounces, leaving the box at 18.4 ounces.

A BAR weighs about 24 pounds (384 ounces). So you would need about 21 96-count boxes of simple Tampax to match the weight of a BAR (assuming, of course, that the tare weight assumption is correct).

321 96-count on Amazon has a shipping weight of 22.4 ounces (1.4 pounds). I don't know the tare weight on shipping, but let's call it four ounces, leaving the box at 18.4 ounces.

A BAR weighs about 24 pounds (384 ounces). So you would need about 21 96-count boxes of simple Tampax to match the weight of a BAR (assuming, of course, that the tare weight assumption is correct).

I've said this before, but I've always believed that, at least in my lifetime, the American voters have always made the best electoral choices in presidential elections. I didn't vote for Obama, for instance, but I now believe that McCain and Romney would have been worse for the country than the JEF was. In those cases, the Deep State would have never been exposed, and we would have been unhappily voting for GOPe-types ad nauseum, even to this day. Even before then; Gerald Ford gave us Anthony Kennedy (awful). Carter gave us Paul Volcker (great). Etc, etc.

saddest story from years back ... smaller town in Mexico, cartels killed a lot of cops, and the chief. A brave young woman took over ... of course they murdered her too ... and shot the place up.


But our own mafia run state still insists we keep the borders open and they protect the human/drug trafficking in the cities. We all are forced to subsidize it ...

Way more people sign up for tickets than can actually get it. Every one of those people enters the campaign database, and becomes a person who's data the campaign doesn't have to buy at huge expense from aggregators.

I suspect the rallies are gigantic source of data for Trump's campaign, and they enable him to read the crowd and hone his message. Every one is both a performance and a rehearsal and a way to try out new material - much like a stand-up comic does his normal set with some new jokes peppered throughout to gain reaction and build his next special.

I'm not worried about whether Trump will win. He will.What I worry about is the 'downticket' races. I can see Trump winning big, but the GOP losing the Senate and more House seats.

Kind of like Nixon in 1972. Landslide victory, but no significant Republican gains in the House and Senate races that year.

That information is extremely valuable when it comes to building a coalition and a general election message to attract more voters of a similar demographic. It also helps dictate where time and money is well spent and where it is a fool's errand.
