CNN panel just got absolutely DESTROYED
It was terrible, chunks were everywhere, it looked like a Doom demon you shot with the rocket launcher. The walls were coated with blood and viscera, an eyeball hit the camera lens. Seriously though, this kind of reminds me of when SNL was still somewhat funny, and they ran a bit during Desert Storm in which they had Bush do a speech, but in a Middle Eastern, dramatic style. It was pretty funny, then they cut to an Iraqi government official who was impressed and liked it. Trump is speaking a language they understand and resonate with. The pearl-clutching left is horrified with it, but this is what that culture gets and resonates with. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at March 31, 2026 02:41 PM (El6/E) 19

One of the analysis of the recent blockage was not that Iran had the reach to kill tankers, as much as Lloyds of London and the other major insurance players were getting their threat assessments from information leaked from "Five Eyes" assessments, and when MI6 was left out of the discussion about what Trump was doing with the Navy, they had no way of determining how to judge the risk and cancelled all insurance in the area.
This stopped all transiting, because no tanker is going to move anywhere without insurance. Now whether this was on purpose or not, is up for question. Dr Robert Malone discusses Maritime insurance and the roots of Lloyd's of London "Control insurance and you control trade. 85% of the world’s trade moves by sea and nearly half of it is insured through the London market." https://www.malone.news/p/dire-straits-part-2 Posted by: Kindltot - Free Harambe! at March 31, 2026 02:42 PM (rbvCR) Posted by: Gary Johnston at March 31, 2026 02:42 PM (EXyHK) 23

Posted by: I used to have a different nic at March 31, 2026 02:52 PM (ExV1e) Providence Mayor Calls Mural Showing Face of Slaughtered Iryna Zarutska "Divisive," Wants It Taken DownHe wants the mural destroyed. He does not want to say her name. The mayor of Rhode Island's capital city is calling for a mural reportedly backed by Elon Musk to honor Iryna Zarutska --the Ukrainian woman whose brutal murder while riding a North Carolina train prompted calls for harsher punishment for career criminals -- to be taken down. The mural, located on the exterior of The Dark Lady, an LGBTQ+ club in downtown Providence, remains incomplete, WJAR-TV reported. The office of Mayor Brett Smiley told the news outlet that he wants the artwork taken down. "The murder of the individual depicted in this mural was a devastating tragedy, but the misguided, isolating intent of those funding murals like the one across the county is divisive and does not represent Providence," Smiley said in a statement. He said he continues to "encourage our community to support local artists whose work brings us closer together rather than divide us."Did he call for the George Floyd murals to be obliterated as well? Of course not. ... Zarutska, a 23-year-old refugee who fled her country after the Russian invasion, was brutally stabbed to death in an unprovoked attack while riding the Lynx Blue Line light rail in Charlotte, NC, last year. The suspect, Decarlos Brown Jr., 34, is charged with violence against a railroad carrier and mass transportation system resulting in death, which is a capital offense under federal law. ... Zarutska's death prompted questions about soft on crime policies adopted by many Democratic-run cities. President Donald Trump spotlighted the killing during his State of the Union address last month. ... "Iryna was riding home on the train when a deranged monster, who had been arrested over a dozen times and was released through no-cash bail, stood up and viciously slashed a knife through her neck and body," Trump said. "She had escaped a brutal war only to be slain by a hardened criminal set free to kill in America," he added. "Ms. Zarutska, tonight I promise you we will secure justice for your magnificent daughter."It's pretty explicit that white lives don't matter to the left. "Reparations" include the right of "oppressed minorities" to beat and kill white people with little consequence. It's also clear that the Regime that murdered Iryna by letting this psychopath out of jail dozens of times will brook absolutely no criticism of their murderous policies. Iryna is not just a reminder that white lives matter too, askshually. It's a reminder that the psycho-left's policies cause butchery and rape. But the psycho-left will use any tool of oppression to halt any argument or simple fact that might undermine their headlong drive to inflict authoritarian Marxism with a nasty racist twist on the country.

Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

>>> Floyd was killed by police who were paid by more taxes
I don't want my taxes to be used for adjudicated murder. I hold the police to a much higher standard of behavior than a schizophrenic mentally ill man. Do you ? The mural holds the politicians and their "decarceration" policies to a higher standard. Don't you agree that politicians who create a policy should be held to a higher standard than beat cops making spur of the moment decisions? You're so fucking tedious and queer.

Update: Secret Service agent who shot himself in butt was trying to use gun light to find phone UPDATE: Additional new details about the junior @SecretService agent who shot himself last Friday morning during a movement at the Philly airport with Jill Biden: The agent left his phone behind in the SUV while escorting Jill Biden into the airport. He rushed back to get his cell phone and was using his Glock's flashlight to try to find it in the trunk of the SUV. When he tried to holster his gun, he shot himself -- yes, right in the butt cheek. I'm told agent training stresses that the light on the Glock should only be used while shooting. Yes, that is Susan Crabtree, a national correspondent for RealClear Politics, reporting the details of a Secret Service agent who shot himself in the tush.

Whites have always been a global minority. No change there.
Whites are also the people, excluding the Mongols, who've conquered most of the known world. I'm not saying that the remnant has that spark but the future oppressors had better hope not.

Other than the fact that some kind of ordnance was involved (secondary explosions), don't think anyone outside the mil/intel sector knows what those spectacular explosions outside Isfahan were last night.
And there are many "re-strikes" occurring. Again, neither the US nor Israel are giving out a lot details (Israel much more actually) on targets struck, but Israel at least has hit targets more than once. Also, if you count hitting places first struck back in June '25, they're going back for seconds on several targets. Either due to interfere with recovery/reconstruction efforts (CENTCOM released on video of a hit on a bulldozer), or to cause further damage.

------------- Dude, Kirk is the last of the Redskins. He was brought in by Daddy Shanahan as insurance for RG III. RG ended his career in the playoffs and Kirk carried the team from then on. He is the doubleganger for Stafford. Same talents - same system. Stafford has had troubles with his back. The Rams coach was the OC for Redskins and knows Kirk's talents. Whether he wants a backup role is the question. Should Stafford go down he would be QB-ing a Super Bowl caliber team. Posted by: pudinhead at March 31, 2026 02:07 PM (n17eQ) Russell Wilson was actually the Shannahan's 1st choice to be QB, but Snyder decided to trade 3 1st rounders and a 2nd rounder to move up to draft RGIII because he wanted a flashy QB. The Shannahan's were blindsided by it because Wilson was a better fit for their offense. By the time that they got to the 4th round, Bruce Allen asked the Kyle if he still wanted Cousins who was their 2nd choice at QB, and they said yes. Snyder couldn't stand Cousins because he thought that he was taking the shine off of RGIII, so he treated him like shit which led to Cousins leaving DC.

Any Iranian official/s who make a """deal""" with the Great Satan will be the new stars of the Iranian Muslims' Stab-in-the-Back mythology.
Those people would either be instantly deposed and killed by their subordinates, or have to fight a brutal, protracted power struggle against them, which they will lose. This will make any negotiating largely pointless. We could agree to back that faction to the hilt for the foreseeable future, and set their leader up as the puppet we defend until the Muslims beat us along with him. Or, we could wave the worthless peace treaty around, declare victory and go home until it's time to smash the Muslims from the air and sea again.

The agony and confusion among the Beltway pointy-heads (to include 98% of supportive, "conservative" "expert" types) at Trump's wild public diplomacy stylings are glorious.
SecState calls the Iranian leadership (several days in a row) "lunatics", while simultaneously the prez bizarrely proclaims that the 3rd or 4th replacements for leadership that has been terminated a "new regime", and "more reasonable". Trump's intimation that we could just declare our objectives met and walk, without worrying about Hormuz - the Euros and others can take care of that, it's their big problem - is also hilarious.

Taqqiyah is no particular concern with Iran. It's the same inability to trust any authoritarian government from almost any part of the world. The USSR couldn't be trusted on many aspects of agreements, that's what conservative counting rules and eventually on-site inspection were all about.

I prefer a handgun with a quick swish of the thumb manual safety. When I carry a Glock, I'm always afraid of catching something as I holster the gun. Shooting my dick off doesn't seem like fun. I now carry a Ruger Security 9.

Russia might turn out to be our greatest ally when all is said and done. Russia, US, and Israel came remake the Middle East - if not the world - through sustained aerial bombardment and rockets and drones to ensure freedom liberty reign supreme. And Trump is right we have plenty of oil here and from Venezuela to ensure we don't need any oil from the Middle East. But we need the patriotic oil companies in the US to price oil at an American discount and not via the world market. Posted by: Diabeetus at March 31, 2026 02:39 PM (SlrUo) 266

One of the most humorous events from my time as Scoutmaster was sitting in on one of our scout's Eagle Board of Review and, when he was asked whether someone or another ought to have been punished for having behaved inhumanely toward another human being, he replied, "Well, some people deserve to be punished." That response nearly caused his questioner to stroke out from shock. "Surely you can't mean that!" "I do. Some people are just evil and they deserve punishment." More sputtering and attempts to get the young man to moderate his assertions, but he stuck to his guns. One of the other Board members knew the young man's father and, afterward, during the congratulatory chit chat, he told the father, "Boy, I certainly knew that he was your son when he made that reply!"

Posted by: Krebs v Carnot: Epic Battle of the Cycling Stars (TM) Imprison! Imprison! Imprison! at March 31, 2026 02:50 PM (xG4kz) Michigan Synagogue Attack Was "Hezballah-Inspired," Says FBIThey can finally determine a motive. When the Bureau is headed by a Trump appointee, at least. The attack earlier this month on a synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan, was "a Hezbollah-inspired act of terrorism purposely targeting the Jewish community and the largest Jewish temple in Michigan," the FBI said in a news conference Monday. The assailant, Ayman Ghazali, a naturalized US citizen from Lebanon, rammed a pickup truck into the synagogue on March 12, as more than 100 children were attending school inside. ...Two of his brothers were Hezballah terror commanders. They were killed by Israel. ... Ghazali began planning for the attack days earlier, the FBI said, with his plans intensifying on March 9. A review of Ghazali's online activity dating to January showed repeated searches for pro‑Hezbollah and Iranian news outlets, as well as videos related to gunfire and ammunition. Beginning March 9, the FBI said, he closely followed speeches and live coverage involving Hezbollah's secretary general, Naim Qassem, along with reporting about an Iranian fatwa -- a religious ruling concerning Islamic law -- calling for total jihad against the US military. He also researched Jewish cultural educational and religious centers throughout the Detroit metro area, viewed multiple pages of upcoming events at Temple Israel and searched specific terms and phrases such as "the largest gathering of Israelis in Michigan," "Orthodox synagogues" and "Israelis near me," Runyan said. ... An order of dozens of water containers arrived on the 11th -- the day before the attack -- and he immediately started filling them with gasoline, making four trips to gas stations so he would not arouse suspicion, Runyan said. He also bought two torch lighters, which authorities believe he used to set his truck on fire. On the day of the attack, Ghazali sent his sister, who authorities believe lives in Lebanon, numerous videos and messages "affirming his Hezbollah-inspired ideology," Runyan said. Ten minutes before he drove his truck into the synagogue, Ghazali sent his sister two videos in Arabic indicating he was at the largest gathering of Israelis in the state of Michigan, had booby-trapped his car and would forcibly enter and start shooting people, the FBI said. "God willing, I will kill as many of them as I possibly can," Ghazali recorded himself saying, according to Runyan.Happy Tuesday! I didn't read much over the weekend but I'm now "On the Doorstep" in The Hobbit. I'm sure many of you finished. Does anyone do this? When I read Hobbit/LOTR, I put on music and ambience from the movies. But I'm not sure it adds anything. I think it just distracts me. Update: It was Netanyahu inspired terrorism. He consistently links Judaism and Zionism and it puts a target on the backs of Jews all over the world. The people in Michigan had nothing to do with the war crimes Israel is committing. Exactly. Who wants to take the FBI at their word on this one? I'm guessing the usual suspects. It absolutely doesn't excuse the violence, but I've also heard his family in Lebanon was killed in Israeli attacks. If we're going to be involved in this war, we're going to experience the effects of it. It turns out when you launch a poorly conceived attack on a foreign nation with zero regard for collateral damage, it leads to stuff like this. There is zero excuse for the violence he planned to commit, but killing innocents breeds terrorism and unfortunately the current administration is damn good at that. This isn't a terrorist linked attack. The FBI is bullshitiny to justify the invasion of Lebanon.

Fun fact, since Gorsuch had the opinion today reversing Colorado's ban on family therapy to reverse same sex or trans oriented yutes, then it appears very likely that Justice Alito may author Callais v. LA which is the Majority Minority districts under the Voting Rights Act. From the October cases this term, only Alito has not authored an opinion.
I suspect the leftist justices are trying to push the opinion's release beyond this year's elections as it will cost the Dems probably about a dozen or more seats and require redistricting in multiple states. Posted by: whig at March 31, 2026 12:39 PM (E4rtv) 39

The other issue of oil prices spiking in Europe and other less Western nations ... might be a bonus, but I'm not really clear on that.

BACKLASH!!!!!!!! BEWARE OF BACKLASH!!!!!!
Seriously, clown comments like the last on on this post are right out of the Ali Mohammad Alinski playbook. Even when someone screams "Allah Ackbar" and proceeds to recite the Koran while simutaneously beheading Jewish children, while wearing a Hezballah T-shirt and leaving a manifesto outlining the exact reason for the actions; the victim card pops out from supporters creating some chimera argument that they will be the ones to suffer from non-existent repurcussions. Reminds me of a neighbor as a kid. He'd whip snowballs at me while I was shoveling the drive-way. The minute I turned towards him and took a step, he'd run in his house and tell his mom I was threatening him. That's the Muslim community in a nutshell.

no it's basically a cheesecake, but lighter you use ricotta cheese and cooked rice and some lemon zest (or orange). it's not dense like normal cheesecake also the easter bread although my aunt makes those for everyone. those are the best! but sort of like fruitcake? but light on the fruit - and she makes some without fruit. they have a little painted egg in the middle Posted by: BlackOrchid(j+aD2) at March 31, 2026 01:11 PM (j+aD2) Ah, the cake is lighter, but has way more texture (with the cooked rice)...it's like rice pudding meets cheesecake...good choice!

There is Always a Reason so the normies and swallow what normal people normally oppose.
Posted by: San Franpsycho at March 31, 2026 01:01 PM (RIvkX) The Reason is there to justify the conclusion that was arrived at before the act. "See, just like Jean Valjean!" Without that justification then the preconceptions at play make the act meaningless, since alternate explanations cannot exist. For some people, even the attempt to find an alternate explanation becomes a violation, and can be like an assault on the perception of the world. So, just like Jean Valjean, it is an act solely in response to the bad things that are disapproved of. Posted by: Kindltot at March 31, 2026 01:22 PM (rbvCR) 183

I'm no expert, but the Sunni vs Shia split happened just after the death of Mohammed, and it was over whether the new religion should have a chief authority who was related to Mohammed by blood, or not. A group including Mohammed's son was ambushed and killed while traveling, by the non-bloodline faction (Sunnis), and it was on. To this day the most senior Shia clerics must be able to claim that they are descendants of Mohammed.

400 years ago we were also still emptying our shit pots out the window into the street, and thought absolute monarchy was a normal state of affairs.
TBH salic primogeniture with a nominal divine right of a king WAS a social improvement over what had gone before. Having a clear succession with weaker nobles to cause less trouble with their infighting is part of the reason Europe was able to go on the offensive in the crusades era - Islam as the time had polygamy, no real rules on succession, and endemic internal conflicts.

TBH salic primogeniture with a nominal divine right of a king WAS a social improvement over what had gone before.
Having a clear succession with weaker nobles to cause less trouble with their infighting is part of the reason Europe was able to go on the offensive in the crusades era - Islam as the time had polygamy, no real rules on succession, and endemic internal conflicts. Posted by: 18-1 at March 31, 2026 01:28 PM (sKqQm) It could also be seen as Charlemagne realizing the need for raising of horse for his knights required large estates, and the support of Salic law prevented the break up of the estates to "all the inheritors", as well as cementing ties to Charlemagne personally by those lucky first born.

You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated.

Posted by: Wenda at March 31, 2026 02:03 PM (yU1fv) The Morning Rant: Spain Is Lost![]() Spanish Defense Minister Margarita Robles confirmed the move, saying Spain has denied both airspace access and the use of joint U.S.-Spanish bases for any operations tied to the Iran conflict. "This was made perfectly clear to the American military and forces from the very beginning," Robles said. "Neither the bases are authorized, nor, of course, is the use of Spanish airspace authorized for any actions related to the war in Iran." Spain already had refused to allow U.S. forces to use the strategically critical Rota and Morón bases in southern Spain, installations long viewed as key hubs for American military operations into Europe, Africa and the Middle East. The expansion of that restriction to Spanish airspace effectively cuts off another logistical pathway for U.S. operations and signals that Madrid is willing to directly limit U.S. military movement despite its NATO membership. The answer for America is simple...close those bases, and spend the billions of dollars in some other countries that will be more appreciative of America and its effort to free the world from Iran's evil. And for the taxpaying citizens of America? Don't go to Spain. Don't buy Spanish products. It's simple. They don't support us, so why should we support them? Besides, it is a country that is rapidly descending into the evil of progressive atheism, in which the value of life and culture is measured by an amoral calculation more akin to Mao than to Ignatius of Loyola (whatever you might think of him). Here is a powerful bit of data that Spanish culture is gone... replaced by the same post-modern melange currently engulfing Canada, the UK, and a few other Western countries. Father loses legal fight to halt euthanasia of 25-year-old daughter in Spain Noelia Castillo Ramos' case galvanized international attention after her father, Gerónimo Castillo, mounted a legal battle against the authorization of various Spanish courts for his daughter to receive euthanasia in 2023. Aided by Abogados Cristianos (Christian Lawyers), a conservative Catholic organization, Mr. Castillo exhausted all appeals to the Spanish courts. The father argued that his daughter wasn’t fully psychologically able to make a decision regarding euthanasia and that she needed better medical and psychiatric care. His legal battle was ultimately shut down by the European Court for Human Rights in Strasbourg, France, on March 10. It's called psychiatric illness, and giving its sufferers agency over their own treatment and lives is, frankly, insane. But it illuminates the interest of the collective over the individual, and the total rejection of an objective morality that has been the backbone of the West, courtesy of religion, for 2,500 years. Spain has chosen its path, and we should respect that choice. But no amount of Serrano ham, Paella, and magnificent art should lure us to continue our support of this failed state. [France too is barring American use of its airspace, but that is a discussion for another time!] [Crossposted at CutJibNewsletter and X/Twitter].

Daily Beast: New Investigation Corroborates Claims of Woman Who Says Trump Sexually Abused Her at 13
So the headline is true — the woman who accused Trump of sexually abusing her has had some of her details corroborated … just none related to Trump, but instead, someone named Jimmy Atkins. Jimmy Atkins’ business back in Ohio was running trade schools. But on Hilton Head, he took over a small company that specialized in long-term rentals. Property in the island’s gated subdivisions, called plantations in reference to the local antebellum history, attracted vacationing families and wealthy retirees. Corporate executives and global financiers descended by private plane to survey the frenzy some two decades into the island’s transformation. At Harbour Realty and Rentals, with an office near Coligny Beach, Atkins came into contact with a teenage girl who would later claim to the FBI that she was sexually assaulted by him and a young Jeffery Epstein, the infamous and now deceased sexual predator. She alleged to agents that the two men also conspired to extort her mother to embezzle money. The mother eventually ended up in prison. ... axe meet grinding stone Posted by: SMOD at March 31, 2026 11:12 AM (RHGPo) 48

I read through some leftwing threads on this Spanish girl.
The general points: 1) She didn't report the assaults at the time, so she was lying and probably had voluntarily had sex with them - Women lie about sexual assaults all the time 2) This is because European countries are still too patriarchal - in a true feminist society women would feel good about having sex 3) This is also because of discrimination against immigrants.

Daily Beast: New Investigation Corroborates Claims of Woman Who Says Trump Sexually Abused Her at 13
So the headline is true — the woman who accused Trump of sexually abusing her has had some of her details corroborated … just none related to Trump, but instead, someone named Jimmy Atkins. How is that not clear journalistic malpractice* and outright libel? OK, taken individually each part of the sentence is true but the clear intent is to deceive. Seems at least as bad as the BBC's time slicing scandal for which Trump is suing them. * BIRM Posted by: Oddbob at March 31, 2026 11:37 AM (vTZFs) 125

The people in Gibraltar don't want union with Spain. But of course that's because Britain has controlled it for a long time and the people that live there are not Spanish in any real sense.

Holy cow.
9th Circuit rules California’s anti-hunting legislation unconstitutional. The state tried to ban advertising that could “appeal to minors,” but the reality was simple, this would’ve shut down promotion of youth hunts, hunter education, and beginner firearms. Lawful, truthful outreach to the next generation was treated like a crime, with fines up to $25,000 per violation. After a 4-year legal fight, the court ruled it violated the First Amendment by restricting legal speech, while also colliding with Second Amendment protections tied to lawful firearm use. California ultimately backed down, the law is permanently blocked, and the state is now paying the legal fees. Thanks to the Sportsmen’s Alliance, SCI, and the other groups that stood up and fought to protect our hunting heritage. Aaron B.

One caveat about Spain. It is currently run by a thoroughly corrupt leftist minority government. Due to Spanish law, a minority government can stay in place for a very long time due to the fragmentation of political parties.
"Minority governments have been common in Spain since its democratic transition, with around 75% of cabinets being minority ones. Before 2020, governments were typically single-party minority administrations, but the political landscape shifted after the 2015 elections, which fragmented the party system. This led to Spain’s first national coalition government in 2020, formed by PSOE and Unidas Podemos. Recent minority governments have faced challenges due to polarization and fragmented parliaments. The Sánchez government depends on backing from parties like ERC, Junts, PNV, and EH Bildu—some of which advocate for Catalan or Basque independence—while excluding the conservative PP and far-right Vox. Despite difficulties in passing budgets and legislation, such governments have used executive decrees and strategic alliances to maintain governance."

If you look at how crazy radical the Spanish communists of the 1930s were, and if you assume they never really went away but were merely suppressed, this suicidal outcome for Spain makes sense. Not just the US airbase denial, their larger fall as a Western society. The original Muslim invasion of Spain in the 8th century was invited in by a faction in Spain that sought an advantage over another faction. Kind of like all of Western Europe today, but with welfare for the invaders now, until the governments there can't afford it anymore. I guess that's going to be ugly -- old school looting and mass murder by the invaders when the welfare runs out. Posted by: Semi-Literate Thug at March 31, 2026 11:47 AM (VWtfl) 167

Putin is an anti-freedom monster, but he differs from the Euroscum only in that he remembers how to use force. But yes, if he or a successor actually removed most of their internally repressive moves of the last 15 years and negotiated some kind of settlement with Ukraine (so less Russian men would die futilely and the sanctions would mostly end), Russia would, ironically, be well-positioned to really become a major power like he desires. I could even see a free-er Russia and US joining hands to contain China's ambitions, if their current leadership would toss out their Soviet-era instincts.

I personally think we should start pulling our troops off the bases in Spain with the intention of shutting down the bases. It will affect Spain's economy I'm sure and it will send the message that if they aren't there for us, then we ain't there for them.

Posted by: Semi-Literate Thug at March 31, 2026 11:52 AM (VWtfl) One of the great post-war mistakes has to have been our full-throated initial support for that spindly shit-head DeGaulle. His asshole behavior all through the war years should have been a clue. Even worse is when we allowed DeGaulle to enter the political alliance of NATO when they refused to also enter the military part of NATO. So we basically gave them the idea that they could politically control NATO without a military commitment. Posted by: IllTemperedCur at March 31, 2026 12:07 PM (y9nCu) 224

Spain shows both what is needed to curtail the commies, and what happens when you fail to keep up the required maintenance.
It also shows some of the glaring flaws in the US constitution, though one might argue that the founding fathers were realistic and understood it wasn't going to last forever - and of all things, the 2A, even as curtailed as it has been, is the only thing giving us a real chance to last long enough to avoid total destruction (see the UK as an alternative and a warning) You cannot, and should not, tolerate those who announce their intent to enslave you or to erase your population. That's fucking stupidity of the highest order. 9/11 and the global response was enough for me to categorize islam. 2020 and the J6 response with the backdrop of debanking, child grooming, and foreign invasion were the final nails for progressivism. At best, coexistence within a single polity is not possible. Posted by: heya at March 31, 2026 12:15 PM (RW4Zm) 245

AI Overview: Gas lines in the 1970s were caused by severe gasoline shortages stemming from two major oil crises—the 1973 Arab oil embargo and the 1979 Iranian Revolution—which severely disrupted oil supply. These shortages were worsened by US price controls, panic buying, and high reliance on foreign oil, causing massive lines and rationing. (NPR, History dot com and others) Drivers with license plates ending in odd numbers could only buy gas on odd days, and vice versa. Gas stations often ran out of fuel, leading to reduced hours or closures. Conservation Measures: The maximum speed limit was reduced to 55, and gasoline was severely rationed.

That was confusing. Glad they didn't start selling it per liter.... Posted by: Anonymous Rogue in Kalifornistan (ARiK) at March 31, 2026 12:21 PM (QGaXH) You've just solved a long-standing mystery for me. A gas station in the town I was living in at the time did in fact sell by the liter for a time. I'm betting you're dead on... their pumps couldn't be set for more than a dollar a gallon, so they switched to liters until they could get new pump guts (or get the old ones adjusted or whatever). Perhaps the pump guts even came from the factory able to handle either gallons or liters, so they could be sold internationally. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at March 31, 2026 12:26 PM (IG3/x) 278
It's long past time that the US cut pretty much all of Europe loose and let them fund their own defense alongside their cradle-to-grave welfare states.
The downside is that they'll be overrun even faster by the Muslim invaders and we'll end up having to fight another continental war over there, but I think that's inevitable anyway. They're well into the "good times make weak men" phase of their existence, and they need to face some hard times sooner rather than later. Posted by: ballistic at March 31, 2026 12:26 PM (oqH4h) 279

Weird story from Daily Mail and NY Post,
NY Post, "Former Department of Homeland Security chief Kristi Noem is “devastated” by salacious allegations that her husband, Bryon, lives a double life in which he dabbled in cross-dressing and chatted online with fetish models. “Ms. Noem is devastated. The family was blindsided by this, and they ask for privacy and prayers at the time,” Noem’s representatives told The Post." According to reporting by the Daily Mail, Bryon Noem chatted up women from the so-called “bimbofication” fetish scene, in which adult performers augment their breasts with massive amounts of saline to achieve a “Barbie doll”-like appearance.

Spain probably is lost. Unfortunate. But then much of Western Europe is lost.
Russia Ukraine was never difficult. Putin wanted to recreate the security profile of the Soviet Union. He had no desire to go to Paris, or even Berlin. He did want to get to Moldova, and he wanted to grab the government of Ukraine quickly to try and end the war that way and install a puppet that would allow him to isolate the Baltic states. Poland was always going to be the hard one, and perhaps he would have been happy to just stay there at the Polish border - but geographically I believe his best stopping part was around Warsaw. I'm not sure the Russians could beat Poland at this point, if they ever managed to get there. Posted by: Black JEM at March 31, 2026 12:29 PM (GZYu7) 292

All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated.

From the National Gallery of Ireland.
The painting is only 15.6 by 23.7 cm. That's pretty tiny. In 1811, the engraver and publisher William Cooke approached Turner with a proposal to publish a print series entitled Picturesque Views of the Southern Coast of England. This watercolour, in which the waves are so accurately depicted, their frothy white crests being blown away by the strong wind, appeared in part six of the series published in 1815. The rigging of the ship labouring in the heavy swell, the clouds highlighted by a bright shaft of sunlight, even the gannets with their characteristic black wing tips are recorded in great detail. The ship, probably a Royal Naval vessel, is dwarfed by the dreaded Mewstone. This dramatic natural feature, which lies at the eastern end of Plymouth Sound off Wembury Bay, notoriously claimed many lives over the centuries. During the summer of 1813 Turner spent time travelling along the coast, filling sketchbooks with his observations."

I think that is the kind of painting that "commercial" artists aspire to, and can't quite hit. Not knocking them, someone has to make art for business offices and waiting rooms -- and it has to be at a competitive price point, so there is likely to be a discernable difference between that and fine art, even if you can't put it into words. Something to do with the amount of time it must have taken, the care and thought involved.

37 That ship looks like it's heading straight for the big rock.
Posted by: dantesed at March 31, 2026 09:36 AM (Oy/m2) For those of you who have never been on a sailing vessel... a lot of time is spent "heading straight for the big rock" only to tack away at the last minute. Since you can't go directly into the wind, you have to zig-zag or "tack" into the wind at an angle, which means that to get somewhere specific, you have to go in a different direction. Which usually means you're pointing the bow towards something that you'd rather not hit. If you get as close as physically possible before tacking its called "banging the corner". Racers have a saying that banging the corner is like doing your cousin - no matter how good it looks, its still just wrong. Posted by: Defenestratus at March 31, 2026 10:00 AM (WYStd) 100

Wall Street Flees Socialist Tax Trap: Apollo Ditches NYC for No-Tax Sunbelt
Apollo Global Management, the $900 billion asset manager, is done playing games with New York City's radical leadership. The firm is planning a second U.S. headquarters in either Texas or Florida — both with zero state income tax — and shifting most future hiring there instead of Manhattan. This move comes as democratic socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani ramps up his war on business to close a $5.4 billion budget hole. He's demanding a 2% surcharge on incomes over $1 million and higher corporate taxes, while threatening a 9.5% property tax hike if Albany doesn't deliver. When that failed, he floated raiding reserves and vague "savings" with no real plan in sight. Partnership for New York City CEO Steve Fulop nailed it: you can't keep vilifying employees and businesses then act shocked when they pack up and leave. "Treat this as a flashing warning sign," he warned. "When jobs go, revenue goes — and the affordability crisis gets worse." (Cont.) Posted by: rickb223 at March 31, 2026 10:14 AM (9E5Ho) 130
Apollo isn't alone. Citadel and Elliott Management already bolted for Florida. Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan are expanding big in Texas. The pattern is clear: high taxes, hostile rhetoric, and endless spending sprees drive talent and capital out of blue strongholds and into red states that reward success instead of punishing it.
New Yorkers voted for this. Now they're watching the tax base evaporate while the same failed policies — soak the rich, grow government — accelerate the decline. You can't tax what already left. Florida and Texas are laughing all the way to the bank. SOURCE NYPOST Posted by: rickb223 at March 31, 2026 10:14 AM (9E5Ho) 131

Jimmy Atkins’ business back in Ohio was running trade schools. But on Hilton Head, he took over a small company that specialized in long-term rentals. Property in the island’s gated subdivisions, called plantations in reference to the local antebellum history, attracted vacationing families and wealthy retirees. Corporate executives and global financiers descended by private plane to survey the frenzy some two decades into the island’s transformation.
At Harbour Realty and Rentals, with an office near Coligny Beach, Atkins came into contact with a teenage girl who would later claim to the FBI that she was sexually assaulted by him and a young Jeffery Epstein, the infamous and now deceased sexual predator. She alleged to agents that the two men also conspired to extort her mother to embezzle money. The mother eventually ended up in prison. Posted by: SMOD at March 31, 2026 10:16 AM (RHGPo) 138

The woman also alleged abuse by a man named “Jim Atkins” during the same time period. Leonard identified “Jim Atkins” as Jimmy L. Atkins of Fort Mitchell, Kentucky, earlier this month. He passed away in 2003 at the age of 69.
On Sunday, The Post and Courier uncovered records that confirmed details of the woman’s testimony on Atkins. This included Atkins’s relationship with an Ohio college, his age, his hair color, his general appearance, and details about his employment in Hilton Head, South Carolina. May I point out that on the 1 million or so records about Epstein there are ZERO.ZERO mentions of Carolina. Posted by: r hennigantx at March 31, 2026 10:22 AM (/+uur) 154

Turner is one of my favorite artists. As soon as I saw even the tiny jpg of this piece, I knew it was a Turner. He loves the element of menace, there’s almost always a vortex of looming danger in his works. In this one it’s more obvious than most.

This move comes as democratic socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani ramps up his war on business to close a $5.4 billion budget hole. He's demanding a 2% surcharge on incomes over $1 million and higher corporate taxes, while threatening a 9.5% property tax hike if Albany doesn't deliver. When that failed, he floated raiding reserves and vague "savings" with no real plan in sight.
A “democratic socialist” is one who, at the request of 50.0000000000000001%of voters, POLITELY steals the fruits of others’ labors and gives it to others. If they fail to comply, the police arrest them. Posted by: Cow Demon at March 31, 2026 10:44 AM (z/ZK2) 202

Supreme Court Rules Against Law Banning Conversion Therapy For Minors. The justices ruled 8-1, with Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson as the lone dissenter.
So they're approving the torture of children. Fucking disgusting. I really hate when the judicial system gets in the way of medical services. Laws that prohibit doctors from discussing abortion should also be illegal. The main driver for this is the money some folks will make from confused parents for ruining their kids lives and driving many of them to suicide. Silly rabbit...states' rights are for red states who want to marginalize LGBT people, not blue states that want to protect them. Being able to engage in psycho-sexual abuse of children seems to be a common thread in conservatism. These free speech absolutist are going to get people killed. Looks like you can yell fire in a crowded room under this Supreme Court. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented. “The Constitution does not pose a barrier to reasonable regulation of harmful medical treatments just because substandard care comes via speech instead of scalpel,” she wrote.

Joseph Mallord William Turner; Born April 23, 1775, London, UK & Died December 19, 1851, London.
Known in his time as 'William Turner,' was an English Romantic painter, printmaker and watercolourist. He is known for his expressive colouring, imaginative landscapes and turbulent, often violent marine paintings. His artistic style developed over his lifetime, moving away from Romanticism—bypassing the following rising style of Realism—and, instead, with his later works being a significant precursor of and presaging the later Impressionist and Abstract Art movements that arose in the decades after his death.[1] He left behind more than 550 oil paintings, 2,000 watercolours, and 30,000 works on paper.[2] He was championed by the leading English art critic John Ruskin from 1840, and is today regarded as having elevated landscape painting to an eminence rivalling history painting.[3] In 1969 art historian Kenneth Clark wrote of Turner: "He was a genius of the first order—far the greatest painter that England has ever produced..."[4] Wikipedia So definitely not Will Turner, a pirate by blood, who had several adventures with Capt. Jack Sparrow. Yes, would hang today's selection. Posted by: Trying to fuhgeddaboudit at March 31, 2026 10:46 AM (NFX2v) 206
Apollo isn't alone. Citadel and Elliott Management already bolted for Florida. Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan are expanding big in Texas. The pattern is clear: high taxes, hostile rhetoric, and endless spending sprees drive talent and capital out of blue strongholds and into red states that reward success instead of punishing it.
New Yorkers voted for this. Now they're watching the tax base evaporate while the same failed policies — soak the rich, grow government — accelerate the decline. You can't tax what already left.

Someone says something extreme- Trump tortures puppies! Then someone else goes 'Oh, I bet he does!' Then multiple people are sitting at their screens or phones and thinking 'I should have said that.' So they try to come up with something even more extreme to type. Because what you say on the internet is who you are on the internet. And the passion you manage to convey in words is a measure of your worth. (Note: this is for these people- a lot of people have actual lives.)

The Great Mew Stone is a rocky island south of Plymouth Sound in England. "Mew" is an Old English term for a kind of seagull.
If seagulls frequent this rock, it's probably covered with mewpoo. Posted by: MartynWW at March 31, 2026 01:49 PM (M9zxq) The Morning Report — 3/31/26![]() Brian Stewart, the Chair of the Hernando County Democrat Party, was charged with simple battery following the incident in Spring Hill. He was booked Saturday afternoon and released two hours later after posting a $1,000 bond, according to the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office. . . A statement from the Hernando County Conservatives organization claims Stewart shoved a “permanently disabled” military veteran who “served our country with honor and distinction” and then struck him in the head with a megaphone.OF course that is but one example but that it was not just some random braindead AWFL or Soros rent-a-thug but a local Dem bigwig. Of course, what we witnessed over the weekend and indeed starting with the anti-war protests and civil rights riots of 60years ago right up until the present day has is roots in the classrooms and lecture halls of academia. Members of America’s largest teachers’ union, the National Education Association (NEA), were back in training in February, this time for a confidential webinar entitled “Advocacy and Free Speech Rights for K-12 Educators.” The leaked slide deck, posted by the watchdog group Defending Education, reveals that the NEA is less focused on American students’ stagnant test scores than on training its members to become activists, while using misinterpretations of the First Amendment as a shield. The February session complements the union’s December 2025 in-person training on “Advancing LGBTQ+ Justice.” That event counseled attendees to “develop a toolset of tactics for dismantling systems of privilege and oppression.” Students in New Mexico will learn more about the January 6 Capitol riot and climate change than the moon landing. New Mexico high school history guidelines contain over a dozen references to the January 6 riot while only mentioning the moon landing once. The guidelines, part of the New Mexico Instructional Scope for History, are largely focused on racial and gender grievances and encourage teachers to promote Democratic politicians and lament how the richest men in the United States today are “mostly white.”. . . “These state level documents expose a troubling pattern by education activists of pushing leftwing political and social biases into K-12 classrooms as established ‘facts,'” Staley told The Daily Wire. “Students and families deserve an education that values a politically neutral approach to weighing different sides of issues, not political indoctrination.” Of course The Land of Dis-Enchantment will not be teaching so much as brainwashing their children about the events of that day. No mentioning of Ashlii Babbitt or Roseanne Boyland and how they were murdered in cold blood by Nancy Pelosi's, Christopher Wray's and John Brennan's goons with badges and disguises. No Kings, but Red Guards disguised as Democrats abound. Unless and until Academia from pre-school through post-graduate is utterly seized and restored to some semblance of sanity. Meh, that requires the restoration of morality, ethics, sanity and american/western cultural values across our entire society. Did the Long March through the institutions bring us to our knees, and if so, is there a road back? Have a great day!

I recently found a picture of my grandfather and my grandmother and my mom in 1933. He is 24, she is 20, my mom is five months old. Polio, tuberculosis, typhus, and whooping cough were all real threats. Not to mention tetanus and about 1 million other diseases. Plus they are in the middle of The Great Depression where there was no money and people were literally starving. When I get frustrated with the current state of affairs I look at this picture and remind myself that we actually have it pretty good.

"Newsom’s Wife Brought Children to Red States to See Racism, Sexism, and Bullying Firsthand"
I gotta share something here. During the recent County Council primary we were speaking with a local businesswoman who transplanted from the downtown Baltimore area many years ago. She was supporting one of the Republican candidates who exudes the wafting scent of a Progressive wearing Republican clothing. And she told us that she is ready to leave the State due to the hidden racism that is embedded here. And then yesterday at the Post Office, I had a total stranger who moved here from NYC three years ago explain to me how he is uncomfortable with the deeply hidden racism in the State, that isn't visible unless one is trained on where to see it.

Iran is choosing poorly. They are the Hamas of the Middle East. Of course, this is known.

Democrats seen as taking back the House after Republicans quit in numbers not seen since the Great Depression
A record number of House Republicans are not seeking re-election...As of Monday, a record 36 Republicans have announced they would not run... Always the same cycle..... 1. Republicans get us into a war. 2. Economy implodes. 3. Democrat is elected and the economy starts to recover and the country heals. 4. Republicans get re-elected. I really miss the days where I'd go into election day hoping my preferred slate of candidates would win, but not dreading what would happen if they lose. Like McCain vs Obama in 08, I vastly preferred Obama winning, but didn't fear the end of the Republic if McCain won. Trump is doing everything possible to centralize everything in the oval office so the other branches of government won’t be necessary. There will be no sanity until the right wing propaganda/disinformation media ecosystem is addressed. we're going to need to take care of the billionaire problem it will be harder for democrats to run against "fresh face" republicons than "retiring" republicons responsible for all this bullshit.

In many ways, President Trump reminds me of President Reagan. Both exemplify unwavering patriotism, true leadership, and courage in life-threatening circumstances. Both of them inherited disastrous leftist policies, nihilism, and cultural decay, and both vowed to make America great again. Both earned the gratitude of nations and individuals by making the world freer, more peaceful, and secure. And both were spared for a reason.

He later • said Trump engaged in “clearly impeachable conduct” over Jan. 6, • Backed DeSantis in 2024: Roy supported Ron DeSantis in the 2024 Republican primary instead of Trump, increasing tensions. • Opposition to Trump-backed legislation: Roy [created all kinds of issues on spending bills, etc. Posing for the cameras if you will.] • voted against a Trump-endorsed spending/debt-ceiling bill and publicly criticized GOP leadership; Trump publicly attacked Roy on social platforms and urged a primary challenge. • Public floor rebukes of GOP leadership: • Roy’s high-profile floor speeches and refusals to back Trump priorities (citing fiscal and constitutional concerns) drew Trump’s ire and led Trump to label him a “RINO” and call him disloyal.

KanekoaTheGreat
@KanekoaTheGreat What a misleading headline from The Daily Mail. The ATF ran a tool mark analysis on a bullet jacket fragment recovered from Charlie's autopsy. The result was "inconclusive" — not "no match." The jacket was too fragmented to compare, which also partially explains the lack of an exit wound. The bullet shattered on impact. "Inconclusive" means insufficient evidence to draw any conclusion. It doesn't mean the bullet "did NOT match" the rifle like the headline says. The defense wants to use "inconclusive" as exculpatory evidence — but the prosecution wants to run chemical or molecular analysis comparing the jacket alloy to ammunition recovered with the gun. Unlike tool mark analysis, it doesn't require an intact bullet. The defense is trying to block that testing from happening. That's the nuance of the real story.

The defense wants to use "inconclusive" as exculpatory evidence — but the prosecution wants to run chemical or molecular analysis comparing the jacket alloy to ammunition recovered with the gun. Unlike tool mark analysis, it doesn't require an intact bullet. The defense is trying to block that testing from happening. That's the nuance of the real story.

For the record - I was not a big Oaxton supporter originally, I voted for his opponent in the original primary. I was willing to listen to the claims that impeachment was justified, and Dade Phelan’s promise that all of the Hard Evidence of Corruption would be shown to the public. So I watched that story closely.
And when it came time for the “hard evidence”, every bit of it was “my girlfriends cousin told me that Paxton said all kinds of stuff to her, but no she doesn’t want to talk about it herself” and “my brother knows a contractor who said Paxton asked a buddy of his for a kickback to get the job, but no they don’t want to talk about it themselves.” It was the most disgusting farce of school kid fake stories I’ve ever listened to.

I am astonished by how consistently accurate our and Israel's strikes have been. As far as I know, we have not had a significant miss on any of these 10K+ strikes.

That is incorrect. You can vote in the Republican runoff if you did not vote in the Democrat primary. You don't have to have voted in the Republican primary.
Posted by: I used to have a different nic at March 31, 2026 09:11 AM (ExV1e) Thanks, I missed that wrinkle. But past results show that those who didn’t vote in the first round are very unlikely to vote in the second; and since the Democrat primary was hotly contested with a heavy (for them) turnout, there won’t be crossover voting. It’s a fun example to watch. Cornyn has a lot of institutional support, but zero grass roots support. Paxton is hated by all the institutions, but the grass roots voters are devoted to him.

Ice core records from Antarctica document continuous variations in atmospheric greenhouse gases over the past 800,000 years, delineating the glacial–interglacial cycles that characterize the late Pleistocene epoch. Studies of blue ice areas have extended these records back to 2 million years (Myr). The evolution of atmospheric greenhouse gases before this time thus remains uncertain. Here we use discontinuous ice core snapshots spanning 3.1–0.5 Myr ago (Ma) to show no marked change in mean methane (CH4) and a small decline of about 20 ppm in carbon dioxide (CO2) between 2.9 Ma and 1.2 Ma, followed by stable concentrations (±10 ppm) across the mid-Pleistocene Transition. Our findings are based on the shallow ice cores drilled in the Allan Hills Blue Ice Area (BIA), Antarctica. The records are complicated by postdepositional processes and probably represent averages over glacial cycles weighted by climate-dependent differences in accumulation rates (which we assume to be constant). Samples aged 2.8–3.1 Myr, affected by respiration and corrected using stable carbon isotopes in CO2 (δ13C), yield mean atmospheric CO2 levels indistinguishable from the early Pleistocene (250 ± 1

Yesterday afternoon Kwikset reached out to me, and we spent about 20 minutes on the phone discussing the ongoing issues with the lock. Very nice young lady, intelligent and knowledgeable about the ins and outs of the lock, both mechanically and smart feature sides. After going over all the what-nots and stuff, she unasked told me that first they were sending me a complete new unit. Upon receipt and install, if the issues persist, the whole thing jumps to the next level of tech support to see if there are additional factors causing the problem. So.....things are happening.

>>Got my MacBook Sky yesterday. Command + space bar is your friend and should become the main way you open apps or try to find things. Command + tab will bring up all open apps and let you cycle through them. Command + q closes them. Install home brew, it's a Mac terminal package manager that will allow you to install software via the terminal. Install kitty or ghosty, these are terminals and are superior to the built in Mac terminal. Install Chrome or Brave web browsers, install vim extension in either of them. This will allow you to navigate the web browser with keyboard commands. I would recommend installing aerospace. At the end of the day, you should be able to drive your Mac via the keyboard and using the mouse as little as possible. This will make using your computer so much more productively .

In other tech annoyances, GoComics has (apparently sometime between yesterday and today) implemented a new security layer to protect themselves from attacks. They've outsourced this to some outfit called 'bunny.net' that requires the running of WebAssembly in my browser.
Thing is, I'd long ago turned off WebAssembly in my browser (FireFox) in order to protect myself from buffer overflow attacks that could break out of WebAssembly's sandbox. End result: I'm not reading three comics at GoComics anymore as of this morning. Oh well. I did dash off a note to them explaining things, and that I didn't expect them to revert their changes just due to me, but I at least wanted to let them know that not everyone out there is willing to let WebAssembly run, and why.

It's not going away for me on refresh, but I completely neutered WebAssembly in FireFox's about:config screen. Now if Firefox had a per-site whitelist where I would allow web-assembly to run, then maybe I'd change my stance. Maybe.

As for the taxes, I looked back at the last three years of state returns. I claimed my SS deduction then. The deduction used to be right there on the main form, like on the Fed 1040. Now, like that one, you have a "Schedule E" where you enter it and any others. I almost missed it and was thinking I had a *big* payment to make -- enough so that I should have sent estimated payments to the state last year.

@45/Wolfus:
Glad the furry thugs are well, and of course they're hungry! ;-) As to the School Bus driving: One of the biggest problems when driving a bus is the fact that when making a left turn, you have to turn WIDE so you don't impinge on the opposite lane for the pair of lanes you're turning into (ie, don't go over the other guy's stop line.) And yet, that's a lot easier than making a right. Right turns are a pain in the ass in a school bus, mostly because the bus hangs out an additional distance behind the back wheels, and those wheels are the pivot point in a turn. You must drive straight out into the intersection until the edge of the curb is just past the middle of your service door, and then begin your turn. If you do it right, and while watching your lower mirror on the right, your back right wheels will JUST miss the curb and not go up over it. You're also trying to balance your front left of the bus not touching the car at his stop line in front of you to the left, as well as making sure your back left of your bus doesn't swing out and hit a car as you turn. Oh, and did I mention making sure bicyclists aren't coming up on your right side while turning right? Posted by: Grumpy and Recalcitrant at March 31, 2026 06:15 AM (O7YUW) 52

SF chocolate company recalls products for being spiked with Viagra ingredients
By Itzel Luna, Los Angeles Times March 30, 2026 The San Francisco Bay Area's Gear Isle recalled the products after they were found to contain undeclared prescription drug ingredients used to treat erectile dysfunction, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced last week. The products, sold online across the U.S., were found to have sildenafil and tadalafil. The ingredients could cause a "life-threatening" drop in blood pressure when mixed with nitrates found in prescription drugs, according to the FDA. The two recalled products are Gold Lion Aphrodisiac Chocolate Male Enhancement Sachet and ilum Sex Chocolate Male Sexual Enhancement Booster. The FDA initially issued a warning in February advising consumers not to purchase the second item after confirming the product contained tadalafil.

The latest Windows 11 update isn't. (Tom's Hardware)
Microsoft has pulled the update entirely because it didn't work. At all. Anyone else remember the days when you could buy software - like an OS - and you installed it... then you forgot about it unless you had to reinstall (like a new computer)? There were no updates for security they failed to build in? When they actually tested stuff before it went out the door? When you owned the software? Posted by: GWB at March 31, 2026 08:55 AM (AtYqS) 88
@87/GWB: I remember those days, though they weren't as great as you remember. Software companies (including those who made operating systems) would simply not talk about the major vulnerabilities in public, and there wasn't the absolute pantsing you could give a company on the Internet that there is now if you did discover one. You could also call a company (even a large one) and talk to an actual person who would be willing to take in your bug report. (It was a bit of a black hole after that, but you hoped your bug report got to an actual development team.)
Not always though, smaller companies behind single products could be very communicative with regards to bugs, and that was an absolute joy to deal with. Anyway, back to the large OS's: When the next version came out, it was assumed enough people would buy it and some would upgrade, that vulnerabilities that were addressed quietly between the versions would be enough. Viruses tended to spread on boot sectors of diskettes at that time as well, which meant the speed of the infection was a LOT slower and not necessarily successful for the virus. Sure, some spread on BBS's (Bulletin Board Systems) but that was rare. Posted by: Grumpy and Recalcitrant at March 31, 2026 10:00 AM (O7YUW) 89

I definitely looked super awkward because I had nothing on me apart from boobs.’ Summer Robert ![]() apitalism in space As part of the reshaping of NASA being pushed by NASA administrator Jared Isaacman, the agency today announced major changes to its future programs in low Earth orbit, on the Moon, and in exploring Mars. Video of these changes can be viewed here and here. The Moon NASA will now focus all work in its lunar program on getting to the surface of the Moon. Lunar Gateway is “paused,” though the language of NASA’s press release suggests more strongly that it is dead, with the agency already trying to figure out ways to “repurpose” its already built components. NASA will instead ask for proposals from private industry and its international Artemis partners to ramp up as soon as possible a phased program to establish the infrastructure on the Moon needed for the lunar base. This new focus begins with “up to 30 robotic landings in three years, starting in 2027,” and at least two manned landings per year beginning in 2028. The graph below, presented during today’s announcement, shows the basic plan for the next few Artemis missions, which will act as the manned foundation for this entire surface-focused program. The overall program will build out the lunar base in three phases, first to test some basic infrastructure using these smaller lunar landers, second to begin establishing the base’s foundational components with intermittent manned missions, and third to begin long-term human occupancy. It seems like this poor girl can't get an even break from the scolds and cuck bois. In a town where most celebrities can’t be bothered to acknowledge the military unless it’s a Veterans Day photo op with a sepia filter, one Hollywood star just did something that shouldn’t be remarkable — but absolutely is. Sydney Sweeney, the actress best known for stealing scenes in Euphoria and The White Lotus, took to her Instagram Stories to share a photo of her brother and deliver a message so simple it apparently short-circuited half the internet. “Receiving calls from my bro always make me happy when he’s deployed,” Sweeney wrote. And then she committed the unforgivable sin of being publicly grateful to the United States Armed Forces. “Thinking of all our boys and girls overseas and sending my love!

Earlier this week, Texas House Speaker Dustin Burrows directed a Texas legislative committee to study the possibility of adding “one or more contiguous counties of New Mexico” to the state of Texas. The committee has been instructed to study the constitutional, legal, fiscal, and economic feasibility of such a move and outline what steps would be required at both the state and federal levels.
Burrows framed the idea as a conversation about representation and economic alignment, particularly in the oil- and gas-producing Permian Basin region that stretches across southeastern New Mexico and West Texas.

You all need to find some clips from this weekdn’s convention of the socialist Canadian party the New Democrat Party that have gone viral. . It’s woke on steroids. If the Babylon bee had done this as a skit, people would have said come on guys it’s too much.
Everyone has to say their pronouns before speaking, they have pink cards for women and blacks to speak ahead of white men, then the blacks complain that white men got ahead of them. They are still eating masks. It’s a freak show. This is an actual major party in Canada and they win seats. It’s both scary and hilarious simultaneously.

@GiorgiaMeloni Mar 29 The Security Decree works. The preventive detention ordered for 91 individuals from the anarchist movement, deemed dangerous and who arrived in Rome for a demonstration unauthorized by the Police Headquarters in memory of the two anarchists who died on March 19 in the explosion of a bomb they were making, confirms the necessity of this provision. It does not serve to limit the freedom to demonstrate, as certain leftists claimed. It serves, on the contrary, to ensure that demonstrations take place in a peaceful and non-violent manner, as provided for in the Constitution, and to protect those who want to exercise that right in a civilized manner, without violence and without devastation. It is in this direction that the Government will continue to move: more tools to ensure safety for all and more protections for those who want to demonstrate peacefully.

The Hollywood Reporter published a piece titled "Project Hail Mary: 4 Lessons Hollywood Won't Learn From Its Success," pointing to smart storytelling, sincerity, patience, and practical effects as the pillars behind the film's blockbuster performance. That's a solid four. But, it predictably missed the fifth, and arguably most important point: Don't go woke.

"Bullet used to kill Charlie Kirk did NOT match rifle allegedly used by suspect Tyler Robinson ...

Made my way to a seating of 4 lads sharing a beer over a table. One tiny man was hogging two seats and I asked politely to sit and he moved over (seeing as I was taller, lovely but with a mean crazy look in my eyes). The rest of my family were strap hangers, but not me. They chattered away as I looked at scenic windmills and commented how pretty, etc. Knowing they hated my American guts and ignoring that fact because I did not care.

Apparently a routine re-set of a launch clock timer somehow caused the second stage to ignite, directing flames into the first stage. Roasted a bunch of people outright, many got mired in an asphalt roadway that had melted.
IIRC the story, the engineers were running behind so the appartchek running the program planned a party on the launch pad as they were supposed to finish. This led to the engineers and techs working round the clock and someone left a valve open letting a toxic/flammable chemical to seep out It caught fire and then exploded killing a good deal of the USSR's best scientists, engineers, and technicians all in one go...

Oh, they're going to use Elon's tankers. Big Time. This is what a boondoggle the SLS/Orion approach is. The lunar lander is going to be a modifed Starship, dubbed Starship HLS. It has to get the Moon and insert itself into orbit on it's own. Multiple refueling and tanker launched into LEO will be required to fuel an HLS version for its trip to the Moon. Orion carries the crew. The dock in an EPO/CoLA orbit (that stands for Elliptical Polar with Co-plane Line of Apsides -- I roll my eyes at their acronyms). Crew transfers to HLS to land. HLS then brings them back to Orion. At this point, you scream, if Starship is going to do all that, then why doesn't it just carry the astronauts itself to begin with?

Posted by: Kill a Commie for Christ at March 30, 2026 11:47 PM (iZy2L) The communist countries never saw the need to follow safety protocols - for example, onboard destruct systems if a rocket goes out of control. I remember seeing a cell phone video sent out of China after a failed rocket launch from the countries interior. (Don’t know if it was a satellite or military or whatever) Big rocket goes up, looks good, then it loses control and pitches down and there’s no self destruct - it flies at full power straight down into a populated area where all that rocket fuel made a real Big Bada Boom. The Chinese never reported it. When asked they said there was no crash because there was no launch. What about the video? There was no video, and if we find person who took video that does not exist, he get long stay in re-education camp. Posted by: Tom Servo at March 31, 2026 12:09 AM (ZPDpH) 215

If that were the case then they could have been more clear.

It depends on a lot of things, including the bullet, the charge, the age of the ammo, the condition of the rifle chamber and barrel, and how it was modified from 8mm Mauser to 30-06.

Viva il Duce! at March 30, 2026 11:25 PM (rbvCR) I go back to the day a friend mag dumped an AR15 into a large car battery. I think a 27 series, and all it did was poke holes in it and knock one of the caps off. I hit it with an M1 garand with one shot and the battery vanished, like removed from this earth. We found one small chunk of corner and maybe a few small shard of the plates. That was it, gone, scattered to the wind. That was probably 1960's surplus ammo. I could not believe the frigging power that round had. With that kind of energy I would figure a neck shot would pop his head from his body, unless there just wasn't enough area to generate the hydrostatic shock. I still can't believe that battery.

So, IT managers for an established product are always pissing off customers by messing with their "cognitive capital" of knowing how things work. It's a real cost, and I think that for very large projects like Windows, it could be worth it to bring in a cross-functional manager near the end whose bragline would be something like "saved us from pissing us all our valued customers, by cutting 1213 wholly unnecessary changes from the new version."

Strange that HE saw Men on the Moon, but my 35 year old Son? has not. We lost some Mojo somewhere. Posted by: Romeo13 at March 31, 2026 01:41 AM (mP0Kj) The free shit army didn't help. Posted by: Berserker-Dragonheads Division at March 31, 2026 02:40 AM (snZF9) 251

We lost some Mojo somewhere. Posted by: Romeo13 at March 31, 2026 01:41 AM (mP0Kj) Is it truly all that strange? It was an amazing achievement. It was incredibly expensive. It served very little practical purpose. The current moon base plans don't make any sense either. We're nowhere near the capability of setting up any kind of useful resource extraction, it's just another gimmick project that is destined to be canceled.

Heavy water fun facts. Freezing point is 38.9F and boiling point is 214.6F. It's about 10% denser than normal water. Heavy water ice would sink in regular water. These large difference in these basic properties are due to the 2x mass difference between D and H. You can also play around with oxygen isotopes, say O-18 or -17 instead of O-16. This doesn't make much difference, because the relative mass difference isn't that much. This is the toxicity mechanism. All the biochemical reactions that power us are in water as a solvent. That big difference in properties due to the large relative messes up those reactions. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at March 30, 2026 07:46 PM (w6EFb) 48

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham is among the lawmakers being ridiculed for taking a personal trip amid the Department of Homeland Security shutdown, after TMZ published photos of Graham walking around Disney World with a bubble wand toy, dinning at Chef Mickey’s and standing in line for Space Mountain. The South Carolina senator appeared to be wearing business attire while holding a pink bubble wand toy while walking around the “Tangled” area of Magic Kingdom Friday, the tabloid news outlet reported.

The Chicago Bulls NBA team announced on Monday that it has waived guard Jaden Ivey "due to conduct detrimental to the team." This comes after Ivey posted a series of videos to social media in which he called the league’s celebration of Pride Month "unrighteous," and said "I’m born again," and "I’ve been saved by Jesus Christ." "They proclaim Pride Month in the NBA. They show it to the world. They say, 'Come join us for Pride Month to celebrate unrighteousness.' They proclaim it.

The problem with The Epstein Files(tm) is that they don't prove what the Left and the nonMAGA Right want them to prove, which is that Trump diddled kids.
He didn't. But as long as they don't prove it, and don't disprove it, they'll still keep it in the air. Like the "dancing Israelis" on 9/11, or WTC7. Like the USS Liberty. The point - for the Candace Owens / Ron Unz crew - never was to exonerate Trump; it was to Keep Asking Questions. The uncertainty feeds their audience. They'll never be satisfied.

This is why assisted suicide is okay.

Posted by: Kindltot -- Viva l'Italia! Viva il Re! Viva il Duce! at March 30, 2026 08:59 PM (rbvCR) --- Point of Order! Spain was excluded from NATO because a bunch of Communist sympathizers hated Franco. Because of that, Spain entered a bi-lateral treaty with the US. Later on, the pinkos were discredited and Spain was permitted full membership. When France decided to screw us in 1986 and made our F-111s fly around France to hit Khaddafi, Spain was not part of that. This is a new thing. The current government is horribly unpopular and it is abusing its power to make as many illegals voters as possible. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at March 30, 2026 09:12 PM (ZOv7s) 212

The Spanish had been awfully tight with the Germans during and after Franco, even if Spain was excluded from NATO. Even under Juan Carlos II there was a feeling in Spain that NATO was a problem. It comes out at times in the Spanish films and TV.

Okay, so here's my current take.
No, we are not putting boots on the ground. However, it is very useful to make people think we are. Here's why. 1. Iran will have to concentrate its ground forces to effectively resist it. That means pulling troops out of bunkers and putting them on roads where they are sitting ducks. Even midnight convoys won't work. Not now. They will use only the most loyal troops for this, and I'm sure we see the problem for Iran here. 2. It further exposes the grifters. Honest people can honestly disagree, express fear, but the grifters are being exposed. Trump's first term was pretty much defined by betrayals. He wants those people rooted out, not just for him, but forever. The traitors must be found and excised from the body politic. He's done a great job so far, but this is a decisive test that separates those with flawed judgement or apprehension from the bad actors. How do I know? Because if Trump wanted to invade Iran from the get-go, the signs would have been obvious. Note that he is activating units in reverse order: the door-kickers should have been in position first. Now they arrive as an afterthought. This is pure genius. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at March 30, 2026 09:50 PM (ZOv7s) 246

----------- I didn't understand why they didn't just paint the endzones with "KILL WHITEY!" Posted by: ShainS at March 31, 2026 01:05 AM (QHOVG) Quick HitsLibs of TikTokVideo here. Of course: The Biden White House edited reports about the covid "vaccines'" risks of causing strokes to downplay those risks, contrary to the precious science. White House officials edited messaging on the finding that there was a higher-than-expected number of strokes following COVID-19 vaccination, according to newly released documents. In January 2023, during the Biden administration, the White House changed wording on post-vaccination ischemic stroke from "moderately elevated" to "slightly elevated," the records show. Officials also made other changes, including removing the words "potential risk."More examples of the political edits to the precious science here. More in these two posts. Hunter Eagleman™"No Kings," huh?
I was informed by All the Best People (TM) that this would never, ever happen.

I love the diagram of the ship's flaws, Ace!
I looked at the criticism of the ballroom and saw mostly no problem. And it's paid by donations, donchaknow, marchers! Why do they care except TRUMP!? I LOVE that normal people have a sense of humor to correct the diagram. And use the red ink of importance! LOVE the blank stare by Rep Busted Hymen when Margaret asked that question. Deer meet headlights! Doh! I don't understand the marching with stupid No King's signs that still make no sense to me. I could retalitate and march with "You don't make sense" signs, wearing a cardboard box, but am too lazy. From the caliber of marchers I'm quite sure I could insult them as they mostly seem like confused queers. This is the highlight of their week!

Oddly enough, we have suicide hotlines and a lot of services for mental health.
After taking care of my late mother for 14 years, my brain was really hyper-alert. I was listening for her non-stop for years. Nd I'd do it again but shaking hands level anxiety. My doctor, who I've been to maybe twice in 10 years prescribed anxiety pills and there's a nice lady that's been coming over. That's why I've been watching the worst horror movies I can find. It's been a way to teach me that anxiety makes things worse than they actually are. And at least I'm not being sawed in half vertically.

Heavy water (D2O, and there's also DOH, which will form instantly when H2O and D20 are mixed) is toxic. The hydrogen bond is stronger with deuterium due to the larger relative mass difference (D is twice as massive as H). The messes up all sorts of biochemical reactions in the body, slowing them down and so forth. About 25 - 50% heavy water would be toxic to lethal. You'd get there eventually if you drank nothing but heavy water for a week or two. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at March 30, 2026 07:27 PM (w6EFb) 168

My mother ALWAYS got great care at our local hospital, which is in a medium size city. And I saw a LOT of people there that were in pretty bad shape, but that was 15 months ago. Posted by: Stateless - Day 10 of 14 or so - extreme dog care at March 30, 2026 07:32 PM (Sco7b) I haven't looked at the ON budget lately, but it has been projected that something like 80% of its budget will go to "free" medical care alone in 2030. So killing people alleviates that to some extent. Privatization and not killing anyone would also work wonders but that means politicians lose power and that's not good, is it?

Heavy water is needed for nuclear reactors. It moderates the kinetic energy of the neutrons released during fission
Huh. "Heavy water reduces the speed and energy of those neutrons without absorbing them." - illuminem.com I'd thought the neutrons were just trapped in the deuterium making it tritium. That latter CAN happen, but usually tritium is made via lithium-6, which captures neutrons more easily. Lithium-7 will decay into tritium (and He-4 and a neutron).

Posted by: Trying to Fuhgeddaboudit at March 30, 2026 11:32 PM (NFX2v) FBI Director Kash Patel Eyes Releasing the Eric Swallwell Fang-Fang DocumentsFBI director pushes to release investigative files on Rep. Eric Swalwell: ReportsOh, like when they released the Mueller Report about the Russiagate hoax? Are you kidding me? He's one of the main weaponizers in Congress. Note that The Hill points none of this out. Oh! You mean the Administration is trying to interfere with an upcoming election by releasing files? ... In a statement to the Post, an FBI spokesperson denied improper motives regarding the investigative files. "The contentions in this story are incorrect," the spokesperson told the newspaper. "This FBI, being the most transparent in history, prepares documents for numerous different reasons, including for release to different agencies and departments to further review investigations that may have been opened under previous administrations." Swalwell said in September that he "fully" expected to be prosecuted by the Trump administration, pointing to his name in a book written by Patel in which he listed "government gangsters" who should be held accountable.If only. If only.
"RUSSIA IS RIGGING THE ELECTION TO HELP THE TRAITOR TRUMP,' they screamed as if all reading from the same script. Now Iran hacks Kash Patel's emails and that silence you hear is the media studiously avoiding the topic of which party Iran was seeking to rig an election for. Patel wasn't even the FBI director when this hack took place. This was back in 2020 and 2021 -- when Patel was a congressional investigator primarily known for uncovering the RussiaGate hoax concocted by Hillary Clinton. Hackers connected to the Iranian government accessed FBI Director Kash Patel's personal email and posted materials -- including photos and documents -- taken from his account, a person familiar with the breach confirmed to CNN. The hackers have published a series of photos of Patel from before he became FBI director that they claim were stolen from his personal email account. A source familiar with the incident confirmed the images' authenticity. The stolen emails appear to date from around 2011 to 2022 and appear to include personal, business and travel correspondence that Patel had with various contacts, according to a preliminary CNN review of the files with the help of an independent cybersecurity researcher.

Jimmy Kimmel attended a "No Kings" protest on March 28, 2026, in Los Angeles, accompanied by his (young) children, including his son Billy, and his father. Kimmel shared photos from the rally on Instagram, which featured signs protesting against presidential immunity, noting his presence at the event with his family.
Great dad, huh? His young son was born in 2017 with a congenital heart defect, has undergone three successful open-heart surgeries, with the most recent reported in May 2024. As of early 2026, he is reportedly doing well. Phonies that they are, he & his ilk attend the very tame No Kings get togethers. Of course. Btw, Kimmel has 2 grown 'kids' & he's a grandparent..

Judge is a Trump appointee from the 1st term. We really got screwed when Trump trusted the wrong people for advice.
From wikipedia: In February 2026, Brasel ruled that U.S. Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) had likely violated the constitutional rights of thousands of detainees at the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis.[14] Brasel's emergency restraining order noted that detainees faced numerous barriers to accessing legal counsel and that "in planning for Operation Metro Surge, the government failed to plan for the constitutional rights of its civil detainees."[14] Her order required the government to allow non-citizens in custody the opportunity to contact legal counsel within an hour of their detention and before any out-of-state transfer.

This is the rare case where a judge actually gave a harsher sentence than the government prosecutors were pushing for, incidentally. Not that the judge gets off the hook, since her revised sentence is still well short of the guidelines.

Judge is a Trump appointee from the 1st term. We really got screwed when Trump trusted the wrong people for advice.
Posted by: Crusader at March 30, 2026 04:36 PM I think people need to be reminded that Trump had no real plans for a cabinet and no idea how he would do anything anything in his first term because he did not think he would win. IIRC it was the weekend before the election when he confided in his campaign team that he knew they could not win no matter what happened but they gave it a good try. He was literally blindsided by his win like everyone else in the country was. I certainly never expected him to win. While he was trying to organize a cabinet he was being attacked from both the left and the right on an hourly basis and was forced to constantly defend himself from minute one with the entire deep state, the courts along with the left and all of the rino's constantly attacking at him.

Prosecutors are pussies and 99% always looking for plea deals . That's why so many criminals who should still be in prison are walking the streets and looking for their next victims.
Posted by: Harry Vandenburg at March 30, 2026 04:52 PM (V4IXI) Prosecutors are hyper-aggressively slef interested, and conviction rate is a big factor in getting to the next level. A plea deal results in a conviction, ergo going to trial not only costs more and takes more time, there's the offchance that the perp skates. They don't give one flying fuck about public safety or "justice", only their careers* *The caveat is when they tilt at windmills for publicity and political advantage such as the specious charges leveled against POTUS Posted by: OneEyedJack at March 30, 2026 05:12 PM (zafwz) Posted by: Romeo13 at March 30, 2026 05:12 PM (mP0Kj) 133
One of my brothers is a federal agent. I had ask him before why they do a year plus one day. He said it’s to get around the First Step Act sentence reduction guidelines. If the sentence is one year or less (365 days or less) you have to serve the full sentence of one year, as the reduction credits don’t apply. If your sentence is great than 1 year (>365 days) then you do qualify. Hence why they do one year plus 1 day.
This person now qualifies for good behavior sentence reduction credits from 25-40%. The likelihood is this fraudster does 6 months or less. Crime really does pay. Posted by: Mrs Emma Peel at March 30, 2026 05:14 PM (np2zX) 134

The state has no respect for taxpayer money. $250 million is stolen from hardworking taxpayers and one of the thieves gets a light sentence for paying back less than 1/250th of the stolen amount.
Peter St. Onge warned that the taxpayers are probably going to end up bailing out private credit as a number of the lenders (e.g., Blue Owl) have stopped allowing redemptions. Peter also pointed out that the banks are lobbying Congress hard to make it illegal for stable coins to pay interest because those accounts are paying about 4% while banks are paying < 1/4%.

‘ He claimed to serve roughly 1.5 million meals total and that the meals were provided by S & S Catering.’
1.5M meals. Imagine the infrastructure and resources to prepare and serve that many meals. The biggest professional catering companies in the country probably don’t serve that many meals in that time frame. But this lone asshole probably had a bare-bones LLC with maybe one to two employees, tiny office space, and no resources to serve hamburger helper, let alone 1.5M meals. The fact that nobody bothered to do any due diligence whatsoever on any of these companies makes it 100% clear to me that everyone was in on it, from top to bottom.

Video of these sexual fetishist mutants here. (Toby just emailed me to say "Almost as hittable as Sarah Longwell.") Robert DeNiro -- or, as I think this genius should be called, Bobby "The Brain" DeNiro -- stumbled and mumbled his way through a gibberish speech written for him by ChatGTP. C3For decades people praised DeNiro for somehow managing to make his eyes empty and absent. Turns out, no, he's not a great actor, he's just brain-damaged IRL. When he "portrays" a man with no inner monologue who seems to be an animal motivated only by primitive instinct, that's just him. Bobby "The Brain" DeNiro shuffle-marched alongside pogrom-stirring race hustler and OG Grifter Al Sharpton as well as spherical bull-dyke and mortgage fraudster "Big Tish" James.

Before the proest yesterday morning, they were running around frantically trying t pack the car with signs and accessories -- yelling at each other, upset, excited, desperate to get there in time and not forget anything. aFterward, they invited abut 15 fellow No-Kingers to the house for an after-protest canapé party. they stood around laughing and sipping white wine, and then gathered in a circle and sang cringey "protest songs" that consisted n '60s and '70s hits with badly rewritten anti-Trump lyrics.

They had one of those all-Lefty-hands-on-deck protests in my town on Saturday. It was on a major street but not Main Street, and there was no interference with traffic. About 75% greybeards, 25% students, I'd guess. No Kings, LGBTQ, Free Palestine, No War, No Ice, etc.
Some support honks, but also loud exhortations to fuck themselves, and many birds were thrown, including my own. Posted by: All Hail Eris, She-Wolf of the 'Ettes 'Ettes. at March 30, 2026 03:50 PM (kpS4V) 85

From early this morning, someone talking to an elderly white woman:
--------- Interviewer: “Why do you think there’s not a lot of black people here?” Protester: “Because a lot of them are afraid of being arrested. And they don’t wanna get arrested. They can’t afford it. They can’t afford the lawyers. They can’t afford the time off from work. And they’re afraid.” Interviewer: “Do you think black people are less likely to protest because they’re afraid of getting arrested?” Protester: “Yeah, I do. Because they know they’ll get arrested more than white people.” Interviewer: “What about voter ID laws? A lot of people say that suppresses the black vote.” Protester: “Yeah, because a lot of black people don’t have IDs. They don’t drive. They don’t have cars. They use public transportation.” ===== The media's narrative at work. Posted by: Martini Farmer at March 30, 2026 03:52 PM (AkEZC) 92

I mean, you do have to understand. A lot of faithless old folks, some who had no families (thanks to Roe V Wade hitting right when they would) and some whose families hate them, really have nothing to look forward to, nothing to "feel important with", except a path to obsolescence and death. This "No Kings movement" makes them matter, at least in their own heads. This gives their lives, as they are, meaning. When this ends (and the Dems dump them like they dump anyone no longer useful), many of them likely will, too.
So, I feel bad for them...and yet, I'd also like them to stay in their assisted living homes and have an ice cream party instead. Posted by: Nova Local at March 30, 2026 03:54 PM (tOcjL) 103

Finally, the protest babes!!
Saturday was great. I was horribly disappointed by two horror movies, watched coverage of No Kings Day 3 on MS Now AND watched 'Freddy Got Fingered.' Entertainment all around. Hollywood has had 25 years to dig deeper and 'Freddy Got Fingered' was actually the best movie I saw that day. It was bad and I can't believe they crapped $14 million on it, but it wasn't that bad. Lily white and no bitching about racism and no gays, And thanks to MS Now, Tom Green didn't even crack the top 7 most annoying people Saturday.

Regarding the Epstein Files.
Great News!! Variety reports there's going to be a movie! Sony Pictures Television is shopping a project about the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein with Laura Dern attached to star, Variety has learned. The limited series is based on the book “Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story” by Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald journalist who put a renewed spotlight on Epstein and his crimes. Dern will star in the series as Brown. The official description of the series describes it as “an explosive account of an investigative reporter exposing the secret plea deal between Epstein and federal prosecutors. Drawing from Brown’s experience as a groundbreaking reporter for the Miami Herald, the book and the limited series follow her relentless years-long investigation that identified 80 victims, persuaded key survivors to go on the record, and led to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s arrests.” Posted by: Stateless - Day 10 of 14 or so - extreme dog care at March 30, 2026 04:16 PM (Sco7b) 164

His strong arms holding them down as he thrusts into them. There's nothing they can do, they're helpless against him. It's all BDSM fantasy time for leftovers.

During COVID the government repeatedly violated laws and the constitution. Ho-hum. In fact, if you didn't agree you were ostracized. And it wasn't the president; it was a local unelected health official calling the shots.
Kamala Harris received 0.0% of the democrat primary vote, and they made her their candidate solely because they realized their actual candidate, Joe Biden, was going to lose badly. That's the total reasoning behind the switch - we are going to lose with Biden, maybe we can win with Kamala. Voters? Fuck the voters. No kings blah blah. Such bullshit.

"The Georgia State University teacher"
The Democrats, in the long tradition within their party of creating a political operation funded with tax dollars (a "machine"), have duplicated it, not with direct government jobs -because we've created laws like the Hatch Act making that difficult - but with government-adjacent operations, like schools and universities, and " NGOs". Kill the Teacher's Unions, dismantle all the socially-conscious fluff curricula in colleges, and defund, without exception, NGOs. Let them run on donations, not taxes.

Walked right in and out. It was easy
ccording to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, the theft occurred on March 19 at the Supervisor of Elections’ headquarters on Cherry Road. Surveillance footage and digital check-in logs allegedly show Panicci, who was not on the original training roster, writing his name in, scanning his identification, and entering the room at 8:34 a.m. Surveillance footage captured the moment Panicci, seated at a voter registration kiosk, reached over to an adjacent machine and pulled a black-and-silver SanDisk USB from its port. Investigators say he then slipped the device into his right pants pocket and left the facility. Posted by: Hatari somewhere on Ventura Highway at March 30, 2026 02:39 PM (NtVYv) 39

Surveillance footage captured the moment Panicci, seated at a voter registration kiosk, reached over to an adjacent machine and pulled a black-and-silver SanDisk USB from its port. Investigators say he then slipped the device into his right pants pocket and left the facility.

You know, an obvious deterrent to this sort of shit would be to require only secure USB ports on any election-related devices. Make the ports something like Cannon or Amphenol connectors; multi-pin plugs/sockets with a screw or bayonet type locking ring equipped with holes to insert padlocks. Port designed to be "dead" until the locking ring is seated, and padlocks inserted.

Tony Seruga @TonySeruga
This is the guy that during the Presidential campaign claimed that he had mass cellphone records, and could track things like "57% of the attendees at the Kamala Harris rally in East Bumfuck last night had been to at least three Harris rallies in the past". He was trying to make the point that Harris had a corps of professional attendees that the Harris campaign was bussing from event to event. While I'd like to believe that, I never saw anyone corroborate Seruga's claims, nor did I see anyone refuting Seruga's claims, so I still don't know if he was blowing smoke or not. It was very odd.

This reminds me - during the '00 election a Dem election worker - Irv Slosberg was found with a stolen vot-a-matic. The Dem SoS refused to investigate.
A reporter interviewed the guy that managed the location the machine was stolen from and I remember to this day the guy who ran the site, some career Dem operative, had the biggest shit eating grin as he said he had no idea how Slosberg ended up with the Vot-a-Matic Posted by: 18-1 at March 30, 2026 03:12 PM (sKqQm) 143

This is the guy that during the Presidential campaign claimed that he had mass cellphone records, and could track things like "57% of the attendees at the Kamala Harris rally in East Bumfuck last night had been to at least three Harris rallies in the past". He was trying to make the point that Harris had a corps of professional attendees that the Harris campaign was bussing from event to event. While I'd like to believe that, I never saw anyone corroborate Seruga's claims, nor did I see anyone refuting Seruga's claims, so I still don't know if he was blowing smoke or not. It was very odd.

It was a state legislative House seat, not a US House seat.
Not too concerned. The legislature is adjourned for the year (except for brief special sessions scheduled), so she won't have a whole lot of voting to do. And we'll get the seat back in November, just like we did in HD 35 in 2024 when Dem Tom Keen won a special there and the Dems were crowing. They weren't crowing that November when Republican Erika Booth (a school teacher no less) whom he beat in the special came back to win for the full two-year term.

Though these "mines" don't look like flat tuna cans. After making this ridiculous claim, the Washington Post then issued acorrection stating that this "independent journalist" was invited to Iran by Iran's state media and led around by the nose by government "representatives." ![]()

There are several things going on, the "discomfort" in the strait, which will be resolved shortly, and how much is left to remove in Iran - ballistic missile production, removal of uranium, etc. The government situation is a little murky.

willowed, but too good to miss. My opinion:
252 His whole strategy has been to remove the threat of Iran closing the strait. In other examples, he has done that (or proposed) using commercial interests and involving all parties. He did that in the Armenian-Azerbaijan war, and he proposed it several times in Ukraine. In Ukraine, it is mostly about resources and the solution is to have US profiting, as well as both sides, so that no one has an interest in blowing it up. The problem from the Strait is (1) how do you seize it from Iran -- well he is doing that now. and (2) how do you get the world to agree -- well having energy cut for several weeks is doing that. The whole shutdown of the strait was planned by Trump You heard it here first.

Sorry, that posted before I cleaned it up.
I was saying that Trump planned a commercial corridor in the Strait, and the war, and shutdown, is ground prep for that. He planned the crisis to show the world that we can not live with the threat of Iran (or China) closing it as they please. In spite of the net zero insanity. So now they know -- they need the Strait. Now Trump will offer a solution. A solution he has been planning for years. Posted by: bob (moron incognitus) at March 30, 2026 01:38 PM (yFx9n) 31

There are reports that the US is laying mines, by air, at suspected Iranian missile launch sites in an attempt to deter more missiles, drones and rockets from being launched. If true, it would not be a "war crime" but rather a prudent measure to stop the missile attacks as the launch sites are nowhere near most populated areas.
And no civilians would be permitted near one. Unless the mullahs are using civilians as human shields. Posted by: Martini Farmer at March 30, 2026 01:43 PM (AkEZC) 55

The only way to secure the strait, long term, is a US base (or several) on the islands, patrolling and eliminating arms build up. Make it a mine/fast boat/missile/drone free zone.
The only way to justify that, is if US makes some profit. So we "insure" the shipments, and guarantee security. We take a cut of everything through the strait, that we control. The Gulf states will agree because they make their own revenue and the security of not having the mad mullahs is worth it. The rest of world will (now) agree because they have been forced to understand that they still rely on the strait. Iran will agree eventually too.

Iran promises to set US troops on fire. Tehran vows to retaliate if Pentagon follows through on plans for weeks-long ground invasion
It blows my mind that anyone still believes boots on the ground is the modern day warfare. We’re seeing it in real time in Ukraine/Russia that drones absolutely annihilate ground troops. We’re walking soldiers literally to their death. Hegseth put US troops in significant harms way by refusing to adhere to the rules of war. Iran has little incentive to treat captured/injured US troops humanely if the US already refused to do so. Military You're going the wrong way! Turn around! We have a President who is a criminal and likely an asset of a foreign nation, And the commander of our military is an alcoholic white nationalist who thinks he can bring about the "End of days". We have a government sponsored militia (ICE) brutalizing our people at home and It's very likely that our elections will be rigged by republicans and their allies.

OT: Way to solve current DHS standoff.
Move ICE Back to DOJ. Move any ICE funding from the BBB there, and have DOJ oversee ICE like they oversee FBI (and like they USED to oversee ICE before DHS was a thing). They have EOIR (aka the immigration judges) already, so it's even streamlining the whole civil legal process. I don't think this is entirely legal, but if Congress isn't funding something, they effectively have closed DHS, so certain functions deemed necessary maybe could be moved....sorta legally. And we're already doing this at Department of Ed even with funding. Dems would NEVER refuse to fund DOJ (lawyers make too much money and support Ds too hard), so we'd be out of stand off land.

All of the left media is still pushing the lie that the US bombed the girl's school.
And the ones that don't explicitly push it, strongly imply it by the A + B must = C of "A, it was hit + B, the US was targeting the base nearby = C, so the US must have hit the school." None of them disclose that the sole source of the claim it was the US that hit it, that it was a girls schools, or even that any girls died is only the Iranians. The same Iranians that killed 30,000 a month before. And no leftie cried about those murdered. Posted by: People's Hippo Voice at March 30, 2026 02:16 PM (HXT0k) 215

3.99 gas under Trump - price to pay for possibly ending nearly 50 year war that Iran's mullahs have been waging on US

I've found in my travels that food quality and taste isn't so much what region your physically in, but rather the quality of the ingredients and recipe.
I've had some horrible, watery biscuits and gravy in the south. I've had limpdick tasteless cheesesteak in Philly. My grandmother made some truly excellent biscuits and gravy. She was German to the core and the southernmost she ever went was maybe Atlantic City. Posted by: Elric The Blade at March 30, 2026 02:33 PM (iFTx/) 286

Medicare and medicaid fraud is massive in Florida, and one report I saw was figuring that the major driver of this was the Cuban government which was using medical billing fraud as a revenue source for the Cuban state.
This would make the greatest revenue sources for the Cuban state to be Taking remittances from Cuban expats, the leasing of medical personnel to other 3rd world states, and US fraud.

To get to a post when the main page is blown up 1. Look on left sidebar and you will see links. The links are useless, but they contain the post number. 2. Insert the post number into the address using the format you see in your browser for any comment link.

Also, why the fuck do these "keys" exist -- paper ballots do not need keys. Will we never fix this? Posted by: bob (moron incognitus) at March 30, 2026 01:04 PM (yFx9n) The key that he stole was not the election key. The concern is that someone might have been able to reverse engineer the election key from the training key. Assuming that the key uses a GUID, I'm not sure how they would do that but for all I know it just uses a one digit code.

Two stories of interest:
1) Gotterdammerung in Iran. Alireza Jafari, an 11-year-old boy, has been identified as a child soldier killed while serving at an IRGC checkpoint in Tehran. According to Hengaw, a Norway-based human rights organization, he is the first reported Iranian child soldier to be killed since the escalation of the war in the Middle East. He was initially reported as a civilian casualty, but the “Teachers’ Basij” organization later confirmed that he died “while on duty.” According to his mother, he was at the checkpoint with his father due to a shortage of personnel. https://is.gd/RxXhbM An ICE officer at Bush Airport has been handing out lollipops to kids Two guesses as to which the MFM condemns. https://is.gd/iQ6FIM Posted by: Archimedes at March 30, 2026 01:08 PM (Riz8t) 124

Ms Chickfilet probably has the same problems that former congresscreature Anthony Weiner did -- misconduct is too obvious to cover up, and didn't take care of obligations to the party hierarchy.

Israel and the US are going down the list--hitting component factories now to prevent a quick rebuild of Iran's missile capabilities. Same with hitting the steel mills. Patience in such cases is a virtue as there are no clear lines like an invasion as the target of the bombing campaign is the will of the enemy to continue and the systematic crippling of the IRGC apparatus running Iran.

There are several things going on, the "discomfort" in the strait, which will be resolved shortly, and how much is left to remove in Iran - ballistic missile production, removal of uranium, etc. The government situation is a little murky.

Posted by: runner at March 30, 2026 01:32 PM (GD0B3) 252
His whole strategy has been to remove the threat of Iran closing the strait. In other examples, he has done that (or proposed) using commercial interests and involving all parties. He did that in the Armenian-Azerbaijan war, and he proposed it several times in Ukraine.
In Ukraine, it is mostly about resources and the solution is to have US profiting, as well as both sides, so that no one has an interest in blowing it up. The problem from the Strait is (1) how do you seize it from Iran -- well he is doing that now. and (2) how do you get the world to agree -- well having energy cut for several weeks is doing that.

Posted by: Very Fixed Income at March 30, 2026 01:37 PM (oftw2) --- Luxury! Posted by: A Man from Yorkshire at March 30, 2026 02:48 PM (cWLG3) THE MORNING RANT: Housing Affordability Requires Vast Swaths of Virtually Uninhabitable Urban Areas Be ReclaimedAn issue I have periodically revisited is the need for “municipal conservatism” as an alternative to Democrat-administered destruction of our cities. In a 2024 piece at The Blaze, I wrote “Republicans need to offer our struggling cities an agenda focused on delivering excellent city services, including effective policing, cleanliness, anti-vagrancy measures, public safety, reliable utilities, and family-friendly parks. This agenda should promote a political climate that supports small businesses, primary education, churches, families, and patriotism. Democrat-run cities have grown hostile to these foundational elements of urban civilization, creating an enormous opportunity for Republicans.” This is not “small government conservatism.” It is “civil order conservatism.” Hampton Prescott, one of my favorite follows on Twitter/X (@HamptonPrezcott), is a real estate professional in Atlanta who is heavily focused on this exact issue. (He also covers architectural trends, commenting on the correlation of bad commercial architecture with the state of urban environments.)
Donald Trump’s second term has coincided with an increase in use and application of the phrase “you can just do things.” Whether it is taking out the Ayatollah after 50 years of western appeasement, shutting the southern border after hearing all kinds of “reasons why we can’t do anything about it” by the leftist/libertarian industrial complexes, or eliminating discriminatory hiring practices after decades of conservative apathy (or enabling), the age of dismantling stale orthodoxies is firmly upon us. I’d like to talk about another example of something justified for decades as “just the way things are” - abysmal governance of major cities and the idea that there is no hope for right-leaning leadership that efficiently and effectively provides safety and security for citizens. Even many left-leaning folks will admit, our major cities are disaster zones. Capital flight, out of control vagrancy, serial criminals let loose by a malignant justice system, expensive services that underperform in quality (to put it charitably) - our major cities may be experiencing the roughest stretch since the dark days of the late 1970’s. Now the median conservative may look at this sad state of affairs and remark to himself, “not my circus, but maybe this will provide fodder for an attack ad come election season.” I’m here to tell that this is the height of loser attitude, and is a set of common wisdom that is commonly wrong. A few reasons why people are looking at this issue the wrong way: • Yes, while a statewide or national GOP candidate likely won’t be winning over 50% of a major metro’s vote anytime soon, you need to look at the gross numbers involved. For example, Metro Atlanta has 6.4 million people in it as of 2024. If you apply the standard 65% turnout rate and assume that the GOP candidate is going to lose by 10 points, that is still 1.84 million potential voters that could be in your camp. Therefore, politicians ignoring the concerns of urban right-leaning voters or simply those longing for public safety may end up costing them the election. Having a tailored candidate at the local level, that delivers on their simplified promises (see later in the post for my proposed three-point pledge) would filter up to benefit these statewide and national candidates (granted they tailor their message to these urban voters!) • A dynamic of municipal elections that is often overlooked - turnout is generally absolutely abysmal. To wit, the 2021 Atlanta Mayoral Election (which saw multiple competitive candidates) had a whopping turnout of 25% of active registered voters. Even the 2024 NYC mayoral election, likely the most ballyhooed municipal race in recent memory, saw turnout come out to a ho-hum 43% of registered voters. • The GOP has made housing affordability a huge priority for their governance platform. As anyone who follows my X account knows, proponents of housing affordability are missing the absolute largest driver of the problem - the only way you can materially help with housing affordability is to reclaim the vast swaths of buildable land surrounding job centers that were abandoned to crime and disorder over the past few decades. Further straining affordability, city dwellers are also effectively forced to pay twice for services like education - their taxes pay for dysfunctional schools which in turn force them to pay tuition, with prices reflecting inelastic demand, for private school. Solving this issue at the local level would filter up to substantial improvements on a national scale, another factor that should interest the GOP. Of course, a “national GOP” style of message at the local, urban level is a guarantee of failure. Talking about fiscal conservatism, tax cuts, and reducing municipal services is not going to motivate and inspire your average urban voter. (Probably not even affluent voters.) A candidate that follows the spirit of the ideas posited here would need to prioritize safety and municipal order above all else. I highlight these issues as they are the absolute prerequisites for quite literally anything in an urban ecosystem to work. As a real estate professional, I am always amused at the relative lack of attention paid amongst industry luminaries towards something that is absolutely core to any success in the industry. There is almost a learned helplessness to the issue, as if the move is to perpetually be in retreat as destructive, pro-crime forces destroy more and more of the built environment. Those who remain spend their political capital seeking out tax breaks (which won’t matter as long as a neighborhood feels unsafe and is seeing its productive populace flee.) This approach, of course, is absolute nonsense. The real estate community, as generational leadership turnover occurs, is a natural ally in this endeavor. They need to get organized on the front end, defining simple goals for candidates to support, such as: 1. Effectively address crime and disorder.Thank you, Hampton, for this much appreciated contribution. Here is a link to his Twitter/X page if you would like to read more from Mr. Prescott.

Housing is a weird issue for the left. They know people in general want prices to go down but the left ideologically wants them to go way, way up and perhaps more importantly their northeastern and left coast AWFLs have a significant portion of their savings wrapped up in housing prices.

But without massive vote fraud reform--made permanent, robust and aggressive--every city will soon enough slip back into Demo-socalist crime-ridden hellholes.
Like all con-men, they must short-circuit logical thinking with emotion. And giving them more power to fix the crime--that they allowed and caused--is their easiest, and longest-running, manipulation. To put it another way, why should we fix their problem before we prevent them from profiting from the problem? But all of that is irrelevant: Renters should never have a vote. Take that away and the cities will fix themselves. Posted by: People's Hippo Voice at March 30, 2026 11:12 AM (HXT0k) 44

However my other response is the same one I have for many pundits: Sounds nice, but as always the devil is in the details. It's a problem for all of us, don't just say "$politician must come up with a plan". That's dodging your own responsibility. Also..."Walt Disney approach to cleanliness".

Cities in the current era are odd.
Most of the jobs left along with the middle class. So they are the homes of the rich and the poor, full of high end entertainment for the elites and drugs and crime for the poor. Frankly the easiest way to fix this is probably just make sure the criminal elements can get access to the urban rich. They'll either leave and collapse the system or start demanding real solutions (like NYC in the 90s). Posted by: 18-1 at March 30, 2026 11:24 AM (sKqQm) 92

I frequently note that every possible fault line in our society has cracked open - but there is none bigger than the urban vs rural/small-town divide.
It appears to transcend everything. Rich or poor, black or white, Christian or atheist, you name it - when it comes to political loyalties, all other factors are subordinate to whether people CHOOSE to live in an urban environment or not. It's a self-selection mechanism. Not that some people on both sides aren't "trapped behind enemy lines," but in general these political majorities form voluntarily according to the values people have. And the divide is only growing and growing, as the cities descend into straight-up hellscapes and people flee them accordingly. At this rate, if you still live in one of these cesspools, it's because you must live there, or because you love the cesspool and would never countenance living among your inferiors who don't have to ward off CHUDs on a daily basis, because you hate them. I would put the odds of a major political shift in a given urban antpile at around 0%.

Now, there is a discussion for if the Iran war meets the Just War doctrine...but in his homily, the Pope obviously avoided that and just let out his pissed off feelings about the war and went flailing...since I've heard heretical homilies from priests before, hearing one from the Pope (about God not listening to all prayers) is not surprising b/c he's been an emotional throwback 60's hippie priest (if I had a concept for his thoughts - environment, make peace not war, etc)...so when he talks on "hippie" topics, you understand his pre-existing biases...

the only way you can materially help with housing affordability is to reclaim the vast swaths of buildable land surrounding job centers that were abandoned to crime and disorder over the past few decades
-- I've a problem with that "job centers." What kind of jobs? In what industries? We can't just hand-wave "job centers" into existence. And then: Think about your job, or one you used to do, or those of people you know. Would you trade your current housing for a high-rise tenement (or condo/townhome) but you could get to work in under 15 minutes? Those ghetto lots are tiny; you can have house or yard but not both. Oh, and for revitalization: Underground utilities run $1 million per mile. What kind of jobs support the developers to invest in building the housing to restore those urban areas?

But, it wouldn't be how many people want to live, so they'd always be leaving, either for whatever "suburbs" existed, or for other areas entirely. And there seems to be some weird social pressure for people in these environments to be less self sufficient and expect more and more services to be provided for them.

As mentioned above, the legal system makes incarcerating large swaths on a dime unaffordable in most places, whereas just shipping those possible home decreases the problem in the fastest way possible C. They contribute to the overall lawless feel. If someone can just come in illegally and "steal my welfare", then I should just go steal it back. It degrades the legal structure and desire for goodness. D. Illegals are the ultimate renters. They don't care if they come and go, destroy and depart, cash out and leave...they have zero interest or care in the welfare of America, the country...and that shows.

AI Overview - The National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) and its state/local affiliates significantly influence U.S. housing costs and market conditions through advocacy for increased inventory, zoning reform, and, recently, navigating major legal changes regarding commission structures. NAR data suggests a 2026 comeback with a projected 14% increase in home sales, though price growth is expected to remain firm (around 4%) due to persistent, albeit easing, supply shortages.
And - Rising homeowners insurance premiums are rapidly becoming a primary driver of the housing affordability crisis, often rivaling mortgage rates and home prices in impact. As of early 2026, insurance costs have increased for five consecutive years, with national premiums projected to rise another 4% to 8%, often exceeding $3,000 annually. From above: "Democrat-run cities have grown hostile to these foundational elements of urban civilization, creating an enormous opportunity for Republicans." Oh, ho!

Totally agree with Mr. Prescott. I have lived in and loved and left a few great American cities--L.A., Chicago. Crime and cost of living made living there impossible.
My plan, as I've said many times before: If a city can meet certain metrics of crime reduction as outlined by HUD, then FHA or some other govt entity can make favorable home loans available to buyers. Not renters, not investors, but owner-occupiers. Everyone I know wants to live "close in" or even downtown, with all the arts and activities, but not if it's Mad Max territory.

If the baby mommas knew there would be no welfare checks if there was no father present, they might keep their legs closed. And yet, we supposedly solved that problem during the Clinton administration. The time you could be on welfare was limited to a couple of years. However, as usual, the Dems decided that this was not in their electoral interest, and renamed programs and implemented mass cheating to get around the limitations. As I said earlier, as long as the Dems benefit, this will not end until the recipients develop a sense of pride, and I mean a real one based on achievement, not the false pride of the woke left.

Based on 2023–2025 data, approximately 40% of all live births in the USA occur outside of marriage. Recent data indicates there are roughly 1.44 million infants born to unmarried mothers annually. While marriage rates have declined, many of these births occur within cohabiting, unmarried partner households. CDC World Population Review: Not every child born out of wedlock grows up with a single parent. Many are born to cohabiting couples, but cohabiting unions tend to be less stable than marriages, which means children born outside marriage are more likely to experience family breakups and transitions. --- About a quarter (24%) of women who had their first child from 2020 to 2024 lived with an unmarried partner, up from around 17% in the early 1990s, according to a new U.S. Census Bureau report. But a smaller share of women had their first child while neither married nor living with a partner, dropping from roughly 20% to about 15% in 30 years.

Courts have also been known to make men pay child support even when the child is DNA-proven to not be theirs.
Posted by: Ian S. Hermesmann v. Seyer has entered the chat. The actual father was found, by a court in Kansas, to be on the hook for child support. Even though he was 13 years old, and therefore a statutory rape victim. (The mother had actually plea-bargained down to a lesser charge.) And this wasn't the mother suing him; it was the state of Kansas, suing him in the mother's name. He got hit for the state's court costs, too. Of course.

Posted by: Ian S. at March 30, 2026 12:00 PM (2ocoG) Also insane. The reasoning is like common law marriage. If you put yourself out as the father and act as the father for a certain time period you are considered the father. Posted by: Harry Vandenburg Crazy thing.....I've got a long time friend who had a kid with woman, they divorced, she had another kid with a deadbeat. My bud did everything he could to help raise her (the 2nd that wasn't his) as his own right along with his own son. She got with another deadbeat and my friend had ZERO rights with the little girl, even though he'd been the only real father she ever knew. Courts told him such.

By the way, we have 3 children. The oldest 2 were adults when we got divorced- 1 out of school, 1 in college. He doesn’t speak to my oldest at all, probably because she wouldn’t hold back on him, he speaks to our middle child occasionally, usually only if she reaches out to him first.

Being married and having unmarried close friends is a red flag often enough to be a cliche. My brother's first wife was banging his best friend before they even got married. Fortunately that was pretty easy to unwind once he finally admitted that me, our sister, and all of his *other* friends were right and she was "for the streets".

This essay assumes something close to an honest election.
Fat chance. The first order of business is to clean up the election process: not only voter id, etc, but the vast amount of taxpayer dollars being diverted via grants to nice-sounding organizations that are, in fact, thinly disguised Democrat Party operations. Like it or not, LIVs do swing elections, and these grant-receiving "NGOs" have a lot of influence on them. Choke off NGO funding, and it'll be like killing USAID; you might be able to win an election. Posted by: buddhaha at March 30, 2026 02:23 PM (rJ+qD) 442

I really like the painting and the scene. Bogolyubov (glad I don't have to pronounce that name) captured the quiet of a beach at low tide. The exposed timbers of the dock, the moist sand and the seaweed left behind the receding water shows that. The breeze is gentle (smoke from the chimney and the fluttering pennants) add to the feeling as does the father and son walking along. There is nothing hurried or hectic about the figures. I like the contrast of the worn wood of the work building and the rocks against the more elegant stone house in the background. Just enough detail to make the distinction clear. It's a pleasant, peaceful scene.
The artist is new to me. I looked up some of his other works. He does wonderful sea and landscapes. There is a hint of John Constable landscapes and the Hudson River School in some of them. Bogolyubov deserves more study. CBD, thanks. A nice painting and artist to start the week. Posted by: JTB at March 30, 2026 09:50 AM (yTvNw) 47

From their diet. Inuit and other Arctic indigenous peoples (often referred to as Eskimos) traditionally obtain Vitamin D through a diet rich in marine mammals, fatty fish, and raw animal products rather than sunlight. Key sources include seal liver, blubber, salmon, and whale skin (muktuk), which are consumed raw or boiled to maximize nutrient intake. Posted by: Archimedes at March 30, 2026 10:05 AM (Riz8t) 73
"Chowderhead" is an informal, derogatory term for someone considered foolish or stupid. It originated as a mispronunciation of "jolterhead," an old insult referring to a blockhead.

> Inuit and other Arctic indigenous peoples (often referred to as Eskimos)
The Inuit only live in Canada. The Inupiat in Alaska are fairly closely related, but do not generally call themselves "Inuit". The Yupik in Alaska are not Inuit, and do not like being called that AT ALL. Historically the groups did not get along. Yes, the languages are related, but it's like calling a Spaniard "French" because they both speak Romance languages. In other words, it's a "might get your ass kicked" thing. Stupid "woke" white Canadian communists push the narrative that all Eskimos are "Inuit", and that the word "Eskimo" is racist. They are not and it is not. Did they bother asking the actual people what they wanted to be called? Surely you jest. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at March 30, 2026 10:10 AM (IG3/x) 86

I'm enjoying reading about Andy Weir dab on the modern-audience Trek shows. Apparently he offered a "pitch", as they call it, but Paramount turned him down and filmed gay klingons in space instead.

Inuit and other Arctic indigenous peoples (often referred to as Eskimos) traditionally obtain Vitamin D
through a diet rich in marine mammals, fatty fish, and raw animal products rather than sunlight. Key sources include seal liver, blubber, salmon, and whale skin (muktuk), which are consumed raw or boiled to maximize nutrient intake.

Posted by: ASIAN ANAL PORN CLIPS at March 30, 2026 02:36 PM (fgzKL) The Morning Report — 3/30/26![]() In Saturday’s “No Kings” protests, the usual “resistance” crowd managed to again show their rage at President Donald Trump and their fury at being out of power; they may even have succeeded in mobilizing Democrats for the midterm elections — but they also broadcast the opposition’s complete lack of any coherent political message. Forget about the waving of Soviet flags and tributes to anti-American dictators at various rallies: The entire “No Kings” conceit is a lie. Democrats against “kings”? Hah! They love them — as long as the king has a (D) after his name. Not long ago, Democrats applauded every abuse of executive power by President Barack Obama. From unconstitutional rewrites of the Affordable Care Act (a k a ObamaCare), to immigration amnesty for “dreamers” (DACA) and their parents (DAPA); to unilaterally declaring the Senate to be in recess so he could pack the National Labor Relations Board with union lackeys, Obama was not shy about autocratic behavior. “I’ve got a pen and I’ve got a phone,” he declared when Congress refused to bow to his will, vowing “to sign executive orders, and take executive actions and administrative actions.” He did, and Democrats didn’t complain, but applauded. Tom Friedman, The New York Times’ smug voice of liberal “wisdom,” fantasized of what Obama could achieve “if we could just be China for a day.” Obama lost, often at the Supreme Court. That didn’t stop him. Nor did it stop President Joe Biden, who became infamous for ignoring Supreme Court decisions. When the Supreme Court said that extending a COVID-era moratorium on evictions would be unconstitutional, Biden just did it anyway. The same when the Supremes told Biden he lacked the power to cancel hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan debt. Democrats didn’t protest against Biden acting like a king. In fact, they encouraged him to go even further. Then there were the coronavirus restrictions, imposed and extended by every Democratic governor. Blue states shuttered businesses and locked kids out of schools — when Americans in fact could’ve conducted most normal activities safely. California Gov. Gavin Newsom even banned religious worship in private homes; he’d eventually lose in the Supreme Court — but Democrats had no problem with it. So when it comes to “no kings,” Dems aren’t just accusing Trump — they’re falsifying their own history. The truth is that Democrats cheer authoritarian behavior — as long as they’re in charge. Let them back into power, and they’ll prove it once again.In essence, yet again their protests were puerile, infantile and pointless. And not to be glossed over, in a number of instances Violent. No Kings demonstrations in Portland, Oregon got out of hand in the evening with protesters sporting gas masks attacking police officers who were trying to control the crowd, according to video posted on X by FreedomNews.tv. There was no immediate word on arrests. In Dallas, Police had to separate No Kings demonstrators from “Pro America” counter demonstrators as the two groups engaged in heated clashes. Video of the scene showed a protester being hauled away and arrested and other shouting “f–k you” at apparent pro-Trump demonstrators who were carrying flags and automatic weapons. A large mob of demonstrators waving Palestinian and other flags hurled cement blocks towards Department of Homeland Security agents in Los Angeles. In short, like Gazan terrorists and Persian oppressors, these usurpers think nothing of preserving their occupation of positions of influence by imperiling their own countrymen, women, and children. They’re figuratively huddling behind you, and putting their citizenry’s security and substance at risk in direct dereliction of their sworn duty to “insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty.” You, the American people, are the Democrats’ human shields. As I stated last week, the phrase "Death to America" is not native to the Iranian mullahs. It was and is the goal of the anti-American Left and its epicenter in the Democrat party. Have a great day! And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

Likewise "Fascist". For one (as we all know) the Fascists were socialists. For another, Trump is cutting the shit out of the government, reducing its power in essentially every area -- because that's exactly what a Fascist would do, right? When I think of "minimal government" the first word that comes to mind is "Fascist". You bet. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at March 30, 2026 07:39 AM (IG3/x) 5

All this talk of "kings" gets to me, because it shows the historical ignorance of almost everyone. Kings, in history, have mostly not been Absolute. There is a reason we use that word as a modifier referring to the Early Modern Era.
And even then it was a status that most merely aspired to. Few did. (BTW, note that the declaration does not simply say George was bad BECAUSE he was a king.) The whole issue is more complicated than people treat it as. Like the Romans, we Americans are raised to reject the title "king". But that didn't stop Rome from getting a monarchy under another name. And it won't protect us. Posted by: Eeyore at March 30, 2026 07:47 AM (AlhUl) 19

The best thing about Saturday's protests was finding out from People's Hippo Voice that in our 50th state, the slogan can't be "No Kings" because local Hawaiian leftists have to embrace the racist demands of the indigenous tribal heirs to rule the islands.

Such stories evoke the prurient pop music theme found in the rock band Van Halen’s 1984 tune “Hot For Teacher.” However, in the real world, the overwhelming majority of these criminal relationships are never disclosed and prosecuted, and their destructive impact on victims goes largely unreported.

Were there shots fired? I don't think so. Therefore, stating that there were 'automatic weapons' being carried by Pro-Trump marchers makes you a journalistic hack asshole.

_______ That wants to be on the right track, but it's poorly done. Not just ill written, but ill argued. It throws out what it thinks is good (superior/inferior) with no indication of why.

and I think, we already did the lunar loop-de-loop with Apollo 8- Apollo 11 we even landed, and got out and walked around so Godspeed and have a safe flight, but whatever Posted by: Don Black at March 30, 2026 07:58 AM (ZxPkt) When I worked at Hughes Space & Comm many moons ago back in the 90s, we sent a satellite around the moon... the purpose being, an anomaly had burned excessive fuel on the spacecraft, so it was stranded in a highly inclined orbit and was, therefore, useless. But it did have enough fuel to get around the moon... the moon's gravity gave it a "gravity assist" slingshot back to earth, lowering its orbital inclination, making it a useful satellite. A brilliant engineer at Hughes, Jerry Salvatore, had the idea and ran the whole operation. The guy was a genius. So yeah... we've even been around the moon with a commercial satellite (no people onboard though)... Posted by: LinusVanPelt at March 30, 2026 08:04 AM (xT8gx) 55

Traveled back to where I grew up in Illinois and saw all these excited older peeps with signs and a holier than thou attitude and realized it was a no kings match. Maybe about 50-75 people. In this town they are tearing down local history to make way for housing and lots start at 700k and 2/3 sold out. So life there is tough. Sadly town used to be conservative growing up but as people fled Chicago it’s just another female blue haired haven.

Both of my SILs are simpler. They're Democrats. They've always been Democrats. Whatever the Democrats are for is good, even if it's the complete opposite of what they were for 6 months ago.

125 125 All of this No Kings stuff is going to be interesting viewed in hindsight. It'll be grimly silly - the gloves are off now, and once "King" Trump is out of the way, the Democrats will formalize the end of representative government.
After shrieking about No Kings for years, their very next move will be to install a dictator. And given the late American republic's predilection for nepotism, there's a good chance the second President-for-life will be the offspring of the first.

More fraud, this time at LAUSD:
The Los Angeles School District IT employee accused of siphoning millions from the district and getting huge kickbacks in return sent incriminating text messages that could put her behind bars for years. A text chain between LAUSD staffer Hong “Grace” Peng and Gautham Sampath obtained by the California Post reveals damning evidence, according to prosecutors. Sampath then routed and laundered more than $3 million in kickbacks back to Peng through various intermediaries, Hochman alleges. According to the criminal complaint, Innive received over $39 million in payments from LAUSD between 2017 and 2023. . . . Best part is that Peng can barely speak English, but she was in charge of the country's largest county's school IT department. Posted by: Lizzy at March 30, 2026 08:35 AM (Suwql) 135

Some Ting Wong, indeed! "Later that year, Peng texts Sampath, “Let’s grab these money first.. Its already in the pocket. Low hanging fruits… let’s get these money… It’ll be good for us.” The complaint shows several payments to various companies all owned by Sampath. At one point the duo discusses setting up the additional entities. “We need to come up with lot of companies,” Sampath says, “at least 3-4 to take out the money… Close to million will be transferred to you… Easy to track unless we are very careful,” he continues. Peng responds, “Should we start another company under a different name?… I can setup a company in HK… China… or Singapore.” Posted by: Lizzy at March 30, 2026 08:44 AM (Suwql) 153

"A recent book challenges humans’ common ancestry with primates.
More Man Than Ape" Interesting theory. Provable? I suggest it's no more provable than has been the search for the 'missing link' species that both humans and chimps plus bonobos evolved from. Why? If all primates evolved from ancestor species that lived in Central Africa ten or more million years ago, the hunt for fossils is likely fruitless. Fossilization (minerals replacing organic bones that were buried beneath rock erosion deposits) is unlikely in long-existing wet terrains. Millions of years of being buried in decaying vegetation is not conducive to fossilization of bones. In other words, in equatorial Africa. Posted by: Gref at March 30, 2026 08:58 AM (5rh/l) 196

"Fake news" was coined by Hillary to lay the groundwork for regulations they'd already drafted to prevent "misinformation." Among those were: - all websites would require either actual, verified name or verification of identity by the owner (which list subject to inspection w/o warrant) - all website owners who disseminate or discuss news must register as a reporter (real name/address/etc.) - all website owners would be required to moderate all comments to prevent "misinformation."

Here's an actual set of quotes from an older, white female "No Kings" protester:
------------- Interviewer: “Why do you think there’s not a lot of black people here?” Protester: “Because a lot of them are afraid of being arrested. And they don’t wanna get arrested. They can’t afford it. They can’t afford the lawyers. They can’t afford the time off from work. And they’re afraid.” Interviewer: “Do you think black people are less likely to protest because they’re afraid of getting arrested?” Protester: “Yeah, I do. Because they know they’ll get arrested more than white people.” Interviewer: “What about voter ID laws? A lot of people say that suppresses the black vote.” Protester: “Yeah, because a lot of black people don’t have IDs. They don’t drive. They don’t have cars. They use public transportation.” Posted by: Martini Farmer at March 30, 2026 09:08 AM (AkEZC) 214

Their ‘Tax the Rich’ campaign targets millionaires, but Democratic Socialists of America lefties are now pushing for a slew of tax hikes that would slam middle-class New Yorkers.
The party’s NYC chapter is asking potential candidates seeking its endorsement if they will back hiking income taxes for individuals making more than $300,000 — three times less than the $1 million threshold socialist Mayor Mamdani campaigned on. It does seem like every Progressive taxing idea starts with a theoretical magical number (Millionaires and Billionaires) and then quickly adds in about 50% of the upper middle class. Same as every Progressive Program is going to cost X to start and fix the problem and then becomes 10X when viewed over the first few years.

Hello forum techies from your non techie poster
I'm into day three of a "no news" Holy Week fast- although I must admit to accidentally clicking on a "Legal insurrection" site and seeing a headline before I backed out 😉 it feels good. So I'm here ( as I said I would be ask for prayers ( which I'll do in a moment ) and to relate a story about a " God incident" rather than what others might call a "coincidence". There is a lovely lady in her 90's who resides at the nursing home. She comes to the services even though she is RC. They watch the Mass by simulcast in n Sundays but I am there they last Saturday of the month. Saturday was our recognition of Palm Sunday and Holy Week . Her daughter came and sat through part of the service but had to leave . I always begin a service with a time of silence and suggest breath prayers in which they breathe in and out saying a bit of scripture such as "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want" Continued below .

Anyway the suggestion for Saturday was "Be still and know that I am God" which is from one of the psalms. The woman's daughter said " I want to show you something" and the back of her cell phone was that very saying! It was great! And now for the prayer request: My son- the horticulture major has an interview at 10:00 . If you could keep him in prayer I would be so grateful. He's a good young man and as kind poster Boswell would tell you and a good employee . Thanks so much! God bless you Back to a news fast although I am most grateful for what Ace and JJ.

Being it's the tech thread...
I had to replace the front door lock the other week and decided to go with a smart lock from Kwikset. All went well, install was smooth, and the features seem to be well integrated into the app. But, the advertised '5 month battery life' seems to be about 15 days in real life. And it has lost WiFi connectivity twice now. Tech support responded with a rout 'Do these things' and closed out the complaint with n o further action on their part. A second online complaint has been received, and simply setting there with no reply from them for a week now. So....I'm disappointed and frustrated with that little adventure.

Intel has done an excellent job, according to reviews, with the Arrow Lake refresh and the 250K Plus & 270K Plus.
They've gotten these chips working wonders for productivity apps, beating AMD on the regular. Gaming has much improved to now being on par with the 14900K from three years ago and the new chips are often beating AMD's equivalent non-X3D chips. They are also much less power-hungry than their recent CPUs. The problem is the chips are on for a dead-end socket so you can't upgrade them in socket on current motherboards. But this bodes extremely well for Intel's next generation Nova Lake chips that are supposed to come out later this year. Intel might finally be able to compete, or beat, AMD in productivity & gaming for the first time in years. 2027 should be a very good year for CPUs with AMD's Zen 6 coming out as well. Terrible year for everything else, though. Posted by: SpeakingOf at March 30, 2026 05:29 AM (6ydKt) 37

We do all sorts of odd things for sexy looks Posted by: Accomak at March 30, 2026 05:31 AM (wkU1F) It means you can't use the mouse while charging it. That's the biggest complaint. Other than that, it's a fine mouse to use if you don't mind the ergonomics of it. The touch feature is the best part as it scrolls by sliding up and down, you can double-tap on it to zoom in, and other mutli-finger gestures work as well. But Apple refuses to change the port placement. I figured they'd have come out with a version by now that uses a charging mat to charge it while you're using it, but they haven't done that either.

Sounds like healthy fun. Enjoy. To all the lock responses, thank you. Seems like both quality and customer support has gone completely out the window on so many things. To be fair, the initial issues from several months ago with the tp-Link Deco X60 mesh wifi have been addressed at a pace and level that absolutely blows me away. They sent me a Beta version to try that has identified and resolved every issue that I was having with the system. And in a very short amount of time. I would send an e-mail update in the morning, and usually by evening there would be a response from them. So in that respect, good customer service, and a commitment to resolving the issues.

So now let's talk about the USPS for a moment.
My MiL mailed us a large envelope from Baltimore to our house in South Carolina over 2.5 weeks ago. Somehow the USPS equipment scanned the address wrong and in the bar code they put on the envelope, they got the zip code wrong. After 9 trips to and from the same Post Office in Mississippi my MiL called them and fortunately spoke with the Postmaster there who said "As a matter of fact, I have your envelope in my hand right this moment", and was relabeling it correctly to come to our house in Summerville, with a new tracking number and all. So Saturday I got the e-mail notice that the envelope had been successfully delivered here in Summerville and placed in a PO Box. We don't have a PO box. So...off to the Post Office this morning to see what the heck is going on with this thing. Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice at March 30, 2026 06:07 AM (iMotb) 68

@69/ SpeakingOf: "I've got a TP-Link router, too.
I don't know what the recent news means in regards to updating the firmware, etc. " Should be no problem. The ban only applies to new routers created/released after the ban date. Existing routers are fine apparently, although it's suspicions about security across the line that allegedly is the reason for the ban. This doesn't make sense though. Either the line of routers (and the company) is or is not a danger, and if so, there would be a much stronger stance like blocking all imports from that company and encouraging mass replacement of that equipment with another manufacturer's. So what I think is really going on is this is just pressure to relocate manufacturing facilities overseas into the USA. Posted by: Grumpy and Recalcitrant at March 30, 2026 06:19 AM (O7YUW) 82

From what I've read they are worried the routers can be turned into botnets and used for hacking attacks, etc. The routers still work here, and I have no idea about updating it anyhow, as it does everything without me.

When you walk in you talk to a 'receptionist' who finds out what you're there for and directs you to any forms you need and then gives you a ticket with a letter at the beginning and a number after, so A034 means Driver's License renewal, 34th person in line, for example.

Morning, Horde...How goes it?
"Tolkien Reading Day 6" Frodo and Sam have just escaped the Tower of Cirith Ungol. They must now travel across the Plateau of Gorgoroth and make their way up the slopes of Mt. Doom... Posted by: "Perfessor" Squirrel at March 30, 2026 06:55 AM (ESVrU) 112
Frodo and Sam have just escaped the Tower of Cirith Ungol.
They must now travel across the Plateau of Gorgoroth and make their way up the slopes of Mt. Doom... Posted by: "Perfessor" Squirrel at March 30, 2026 *** It's been a LONG time since I read the original. They leave the Shire not long after Frodo/Bilbo's birthday, Sept. 22, and arrive at Mt. Doom in late March? The main action encompasses about six months? Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at March 30, 2026 07:01 AM (wzUl9) 113

They spend a couple of months in Rivendell and a month in Lothlorien. Posted by: Nazdar at March 30, 2026 07:03 AM (NcvvS) 114
Next week (4/06 & 4/07), I'll be producing an album in Nashville with this guy https://tinyurl.com/4b3rhcpv It's a short clip, made with a cell phone, live at Lucky Bastard Saloon on Broadway so you know, not the best quality. He's settled on 12 of his originals for the album. It's gonna' be fun Posted by: Swamp Rabbit at March 30, 2026 07:06 AM (DDJSl) 115
Feels like something big is getting ready to happen in Iran this week. Predicting timing on things like this is always foolhardy; but the US has put up a wall of noise and meaningless statements for at least 2 weeks now, and the “negotiations” were just misdirection to give the chattering classes something to talk about.
Whatever was being prepared is about to launch. Posted by: Tom Servo at March 30, 2026 07:07 AM (ZPDpH) 116

Either a beatdown of all 31 Mosaic Defense control sites, or all electrical power to Iran. Posted by: NaCly Dog at March 30, 2026 07:11 AM (u82oZ) 117
Birdbath status?

Huh. The opening line of the Lion King song "Circle of Life" means
"All hail the king, we all bow in the presence of the king.". Apparently if you make fun of that you will get sued: "Lion King' composer sues comedian for $27M over 'Circle of Life' joke" Now I have never seen that movie or even know what it's about, but how does the Circle of Life square with No Kings? It's all very confusing. Posted by: fd at March 30, 2026 07:18 AM (vFG9F) 119

Posted by: fd What I am hoping is that the judge looks at the Plaintiff's attorney and says something like "You and your client have fifteen seconds to get out of my courtroom before my bailiff beats the hell out of you for wasting my time."

Posted by: NaCly Dog at March 30, 2026 07:11 AM (u82oZ) Amazing that so many targets have been hit, but those haven’t been on the top of the list yet. Most in the west have grossly underestimated the size of the military complex Iran has been building (but I don’t think our military did, hence the 6 week between the massacres and the first strikes) My guess is that first step will be to seize the small islands in the Straits. I think the talk about Kharg has been misdirection; but we shall see. Posted by: Tom Servo at March 30, 2026 07:21 AM (ZPDpH) 122
Insty says an election volunteer has been arrested for tampering with the Mar-A-Lago district election that the Democrats are crowing about.

Hubby was watching golf on Saturday and there was a commercial for usps. Money squandered, they need to spend it on hiring employees who aren't idiots. Have to say that our local office is very well run.

Once again, there is no detectable difference between $4000 cables and a $7 pair from the Amazon Basics range."
So the Monster Cables ($100 plus) back in the 90's were a deal? heh Posted by: man at March 30, 2026 07:34 AM (XuXeR) 126

There's not much difference in the way they convey sound, frequency and electrons, unless you bought the cheapest, loosest shit you could find. Posted by: Rev.
