Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Elephants and Dog-Moms Cafe![]() Felix Thiollier (c. 1899) People risk their lives and serious burns to rescue someone trapped inside a burning car. Man saves a dog trapped on a big slippery rock at a rapids. This puppy doesn't know what "anarchy" means but he loves it. All cats are chaos agents. Big dog wrestles with a little kid -- but gently. Soldier rescues a stray dog from a war zone and brings him home. A good example of a dog helping. Fake but amusing: the Tony Stark of warthogs. Thanks to Rocket/@rdbrewer4. World's Worst Watch-Dog plays with a break-in robber instead of barking him out.

Posted by: AssAway, $9.99 or two for $15.99 at September 16, 2026 07:52 PM (cCXR+) --- My wife's instructions before her surgeries were pretty interesting. It specified that she had to shower twice - the night before and the morning of. Also that she had to have clean sheets the night before. Her spouse also had to shower the night before. She pondered all this and decided that it must be MERSA or some such thing, and I tactfully suggested that it also may be caused by people who forget to bathe or change the bed linen and it's just a helpful reminder. I didn't not mention the 500 Afghans dropped her by Biden and all the other recent arrivals. I'm sure surgical teams are not real big on b.o. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H.

NASA announced they'd stumbled on a new crater on the Moon: https://t.ly/FzoNQ This new one is about 700' wide, and was produced by an impact that happened sometime in April-May 2024. The rock was about 10 - 20m wide. This in the Chelyabinsk class roughly. Rocks of this size are below the NEO detection limits, so no idea of what it was or it's trajectory. That month window of when it hit makes using the impact angle useless for that, probably. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at September 16, 2026 07:57 PM (w6EFb) 38

Announcing the news that she and husband Luis Felber had welcomed their first child, she wrote in an op-ed for Vogue that the midwife had encouraged her to talk to the newborn, and she shared how she had welcomed the infant: "Hello. I’m your mama. You look nothing like I thought you would, but exactly right. We’ve been waiting for you, do you know that? It was so nice of you to come."

That crater is so new they can see a lot of immediate effects they can't with older craters. And guess what? It did stuff the crater models didn't predict, so they get some data to go back the drawing board for the modelling. It threw ejecta at a steeper angle than predicted and "plowed up" the surrounding regolith more than predicted as well.

If you're not following that, or you just don't care, skip to the bolded material.Sarah FieldsMore: the YouTuber who doxxed the "rogue juror" was enlisted by... Kevin Reddington, Lindsay Clancy's defense lawyer, according to Nate the Lawyer. Apparently he has a history of stirring the shit in legal cases and Reddington texted him to take an interest in Lindsay Clancy. The New York Times: Israelis "still largely perceive themselves to be the victims" of the 10/7 terrorist attacks that killed 1,200 and included many terror-rapes, with one woman raped so badly her pelvis was broken, and of course hundreds of kidnappings, with all hostages abused and starved. That same sentence could be written, and will be written, about Americans and 9/11. Many of us still perceive ourselves of being the victims of 9/11, when the Democrat Media Party will tell you the only real victims of 9/11 were Muslims. ![]() The New York Times came under fire Wednesday over a baffling passage that appeared in an article about an Israeli documentary -- which said the Jewish state "still largely view themselves as the victims of Oct. 7." The Sept. 14 article, penned by Jerusalem-based reporter Isabel Kershner, covers the controversy over the documentary film "NAZA," which chronicles the killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza and just won the Special Jury Prize at this year's Venice Film Festival. ... "But Israelis still largely view themselves as the victims of Oct. 7," she continued, even citing the 1,200 civilian casualties slaughtered that day and the 250 taken hostage in what she called "the deadliest day in Israel's history" in the very same paragraph. The phrasing, and confusing juxtaposition, quickly sparked bitter outrage on social media. "No words for this abomination," CNN correspondent Scott Jennings wrote in a post on X sharing a screenshot with the offending passage highlighted, which has already garnered hundreds of angry responses and hundreds of thousands of views. "If Israel wasn't the Oct 7 victim, who does the NYTimes propose is? The mental gymnastics are at an Olympic level here," wrote one of many confused commenters. "I cancelled my subscription long ago. The NYT is just the propaganda arm of the DSA," said another, implying the Gray Lady is doing heavy lifting for the Democratic Socialists of America. "Yes, and equally curiously, Americans overwhelmingly still see themselves as the victim of 9/11. The nerve!" another commenter wrote, sarcastically.Hey I already said that, asshole. Antisemite and literal moron Mark Ruffalo loses the Emmy for best actor to Noah Wylie, who is Jewish. Speaking of antisemites who have been overpromoted into positions of influence: Abdul El-Sayed Railed Against 'Disturbing' Funding for Breast Cancer Research, Said Disease Affects People With 'Social Power and Privilege'First he slaughtered the stray dogs, now he calls for cancer to be unleashed upon the puppies. Apparently an anonymous donor paid to have the Butler Assassin cremated and feds won't tell Congress who this Mystery Patron is. Miranda DevineIn fairness, some information may be interesting to the public but if investigators find that it is not germane to the case, they don't report it. They don't put people on blast unless there's a reason for it. People are always making a big deal that "Epstein witnesses" -- people who had almost no connection to Epstein except for him mentioning them in an email, or the like -- and jump to the conclusion that the FBI and DRUMPF!!! must be "protecting" these "Epstein witnesses," when the truth is they're not witnesses to anything and have been cleared by the FBI. Obviously I don't know what's going on here and whether or not it's germane. Why do people have such deep suspicions of the FBI? Who can say, who can say.

Having the plane break up on your head is almost as bad as snakes on a plane.
I didn't know Iran even had an airline. I typically do look to see which airline has big problems. I only fly Delta, most of my life, an always will. I flew any puddle jumper in college on cheap tickets with many stops from home back to the university at Christmas and in summers. That ain't going to happen again. I did fly SW for over a decade but no more. It was fine back then. The airline I would never fly would be, I think?, the Frontier flight from Ft. Lauderdale to Chicago during spring break.

The dumbass trying to bring charges against Elon for asking what federal employees accomplished that week? We knew not to send anything sensitive to him. We don't send ANYTHING sensitive by email. I never had any issues listing five things I did that week because I did a lot more than those every damned week, and I never sent him anything sensitive because he didn't ask for details and I wouldn't have anyway.
Any idiot who DID send anything sensitive should have been fired for breaching security protocol. That's an entirely different problem. FFS. Posted by: tcn in AK at September 16, 2026 06:44 PM (Ntshk) 19

I usually don’t have the attention span for a 35 minute video but I was grabbing Kleenex throughout his retelling. If you need a story of hope, of the tenacity of Americans (the real ones) and humanity, this guy wove it altogether beautifully.

I asked Mrs.D.about the Iranian airline 737. She worked for years with a Pacific NW aircraft manufacturer (that shall remain nameless) and in a job where she would know. She assumes me that is a very old aircraft that has been sold and resold a dozen times. Probably half the parts on it are non-official locally fabricated bits of junk.

What makes me distressed about the human condition is the case of Nyadol Nyuon. She's Australian. She came over from South Sudan. She lately claimed that Australian white people have no culture.
Her daddy was a Sudanese warlord (William Nyuon Bany) but never mind all that right now. The western people spent just about all the 1980s crying about the lot of the south Sudanese and how they were fellow Christians being oppressed by the evil Moslems of Khartoum. And, yanno, they were. But the south Sudanese have little gratitude for any of the West's work here. They come to Western nations and laugh at us. I bet the Muslims in Sudan are laughing at us too.

Haitian immigrants are hard working people. Many own homes or small businesses. They often have American citizen children or spouses. Conditions in Haiti are not safe. There is no logical reason to deport them. This only harms our economy and damages the labor force. It's dumb, cruel and immoral.
Haitian immigrants who had TPS were here legally, they came here legally. Having their lives turned upside down because they have brown skin is a disgusting, immoral and evil policy. These people don’t have rights to due process, lawyers or independent judges, this after all is just a civil matter, sending them back at the border. Disappearing without a trace, cars left abandoned on streets, apartments empty or ransacked and then marooned in dangerous countries they might not ever have been to is so very just and lawful. /s the “just send them back” crowd doesn't care how much suffering "back" causes They organized well enough to kick the French out. So they have the ability to work together. I don’t think this is the west’s responsibility to take them in, but we could help repatriate them back to Africa, if that’s what they wanted Posted by: Intercepted Reddit Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at September 16, 2026 05:53 PM (5HGTQ) 89

Posted by: zombie at September 16, 2026 05:35 PM When we were stationed in GITMO in 1992 when the entire country of haiti decided they would try to come to the US because they thought bush I would let them in. The Navy and Coast Guard "rescued" over 10,000 haitians trying to get to key west by anything that would float and brought them to GITMO. When the ships would come in we offloaded and processed the haitians and sent them into a temporary camp. We also had to wash down the entire ship because they would $hit and pi$$ all over the place. You could literally smell when another ship was coming into the bay. We built a tent city on the old runway and housed them there until we could process them to come to the US just like they hoped. That included the over 1,000 of them that were HIV positive. And yes bush I let all of them in. Posted by: Mister Scott (Formerly GWS) at September 16, 2026 05:55 PM (I43vL) 94

123 Haitian immigrants are hard working people. Many own homes or small businesses. They often have American citizen children or spouses.

I can't help noticing that crimes (provided they aren't over the top nafarious) that these guys commit seem to be negated once we deport them. Don't get me wrong...getting them out of here is a primary goal, but I think we should be getting something for dealing with their debauchery.

MPLS is a shit hole city. He lives in Uptown, which used to be a great neighborhood.
A man still on probation after being convicted last year in a fentanyl possession case has been newly charged with illegal gun possession and is accused of trafficking fentanyl and cocaine from his Uptown Minneapolis residence. However, instead of being held on a probation violation, a Gov. Tim Walz-appointed judge has released him back into the community on bail. Garey Lavell Howze, 27, is newly charged in Hennepin County District Court with two counts of first-degree drug sales, two counts of first-degree drug possession, and one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm. Charges say Howze was under investigation this spring following reports of cocaine and fentanyl being trafficked out of the duplex where he was residing on the 3200 block of Hennepin Avenue.

Wisteguens Jean Quely Charles, age 25, originally entered the U.S. lawfully in July 2013 through Miami, Florida. (According to records released by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), he was granted TPS during the Obama administration in February 2013 and subsequently arrived lawfully through Miami, Florida, in July of that year.)
Later he moved to Massachusetts, and resided in the greater Boston area (including East Boston) and also accumulated 17 criminal convictions across the state before being detained and ultimately deported. Something's serious wrong in Massachusetts. And you know he's got to have interesting family still residing in this country, too. Thank O & Joe.

The show is being run by woke clown no-talent Damon Lindeloff, who previously turned HBO's Watchmen series into hardcore racial agitprop with a pronounced black-cuck fetish. And the other show-runner is an extremely woke DEI black woman. If you're not a comics fan, I'll explain the Green Lantern: Hal Jordan, a fearless test pilot, was chosen as the bearer of a Green Lantern ring, which confers incredible power on the user and makes the user a member of the intergalactic super-police, the Green Lantern Corps. Basically Jedis in spandex. The Corps had previously never considered giving barbarous earthlings a power ring, but Hal Jordan was such a standout -- eventually acknowledged as the greatest Green Lantern -- that rings were given to additional earth-men, including John Stewart, a black architect. In the new woke hard-core black supremacist version of the show, John Stewart's father was considered for the ring before Hal Jordan, but was rejected from the program. They showed him something scary and asked "Are you afraid?" He answered "Yes," and they moved on to the next candidate (Hal Jordan), because it is critical that a Lantern be fearless. Later, the people who give out the rings, the Guardians, paid a visit to the Stewart family to make sure they were doing okay. John Stewart's mother launched into a Proud Black Woman lecture -- everyone take heed, a Black Woman is speaking and we are listening. She said to the intergalactic super-being, "How dare you ask a black man if he is afraid," because black people are permanently terrified in America, and then asserted, without contradiction, that Hal Jordan, having "white privilege," would of course not be afraid of anything so the whole game was rigged, as usual, against The Black Man. The writers and show-runners confirmed that this was supposed to be an accurate statement about race in America. They say the want to "start conversations," but if you tell them this is nasty racialist propaganda, they'll cancel you for your racism. Damon Lindeloff has previously shown he has some kind of gay black cuck fetish, and again shows that here. He makes a point to show John Stewart having sex with the wife of a literal white supremacist leader. And then, bizarrely, the white supremacist leader strips off his clothes and demands that John Stewart -- here an artist instead of an architect -- draw him and his naked dong. Just like the "dram me like your French girls" scene from Titanic, except gay and weird. Oh, and the show also includes a "surprising amount of naked penises." No boobs, just dicks. Showing naked women is exploitative and low-brow, showing naked dicks every half-hour is Elevated and Artistic. These are Prestige Dicks. OUT: The Male Gaze IN: The Male Gays This is a DC superhero show. Oh, and in this version of the story, John Stewart is not a colleague of Hal Jordan, but his Superior Replacement -- let's not be subtle about this, let's make it clear that black men are superior in every way-- and John Stewart beats the crap out of the man formerly considered the greatest Green Lantern in history and takes his ring from him. Oh, and in the first episode, Hal Jordan is shown to be dead and murdered later in the season. White erasure, I think they would call it. Sorry to bore you but that background is needed for this next story: the incoming regime is reportedly having "crisis" meetings to deal with the backlash over this toxic race grifting propaganda, as well as their decision to cast black actors to replace white actors in their unnecessary Harry Potter cash-grab retelling.Paramount is holding internal meetings about the growing backlash to HBO's shows, sources tell Cosmic Book News. "I heard 'meetings' are taking place to address the growing backlash to the shows," a source said. "They've spent ungodly amounts of money on Harry Potter and they plan to spend much more to promote it." The shows drawing the fire: Lanterns, HBO's Harry Potter, House of the Dragon, and now The People v. Gorilla Grodd. Paramount is in the middle of closing its $111 billion purchase of Warner Bros. Discovery, the deal that hands the Ellisons HBO and HBO Max. "Keep it in mind when you see bots swarming your posts and everyone else dunking on HBO slop," the source said, referring to the bot accounts that swarm Cosmic Book News' own posts and social media whenever these shows come up. "The growing backlash to Lanterns, Potter, House of Dragon, and now Grodd got them worried." Some of that backlash still shows up as viewership. People tune in to see the trainwreck. The source says the studio knows that kind of watching doesn't pay. "Negative engagement might pad the ratings a bit but wrecks ancillary income channels," the source said. "Hate watching does not translate into merch sales, DVD sales, book sales, etc." ... "One thing many are missing: HBO is supposed to be 'appointment television, the home of The Sopranos, Game of Thrones, etc.,'" the source continued. "Having Grodd and Lantern Dicks be the new face of HBO is irking a lot of people." That's the network that just greenlit a mockumentary where Jimmy Tatro plays Gorilla Grodd in a practical gorilla suit. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone premieres this Christmas on HBO. Asked what the studio can do about the show at this point, the source said the window has closed. "Potter season 1 is done or very close to done," the source said. "Nothing they can do except hype up the good elements and ignore the bad casting choices." ... "It's a brand problem. And the Ellisons are paying $$$$$ for that brand," the source said. "They need that brand to be Peak TV, Emmy magnets, the home of great directors and producers. Not the brand that normies associate with whatever Lanterns is."You may remember a story from a couple of weeks ago: Comic Boon News reported, accurately, that Hal Jordan was shown dead with a bullet wound in his head in the first episode, and HBO filed a false copyright claim to suppress the story. They claimed they had a copyright over someone repeating a plot point from the show. Meanwhile, there's a Wolverine videogame that's about to be released, and yes, it is lame and gay. It's lame because it's not really a game. There are parts of the game that are supposed to be "Quick Time Events," a game mechanic which is ancient and considered lame already, but it's lamer still here, because the game will not let you fail these quick-time events. If you fail to push the buttons the game tells you to push, it just pushes them for you. It's one of those "Push W to win" games, people say -- if you just hold down the "W" button to walk forward, you automatically win, because the "game" is mostly just a movie made with CGI that you watch rather than play. And it's gay because the game's creators have decided that Wolverine's deadliest and most brutal foe, Sabertooth, is in some kind of gay chaste romance with him. They "yearn" for each other's touch. Sure, Sabertooth has been trying to murder Wolverine for 50 years, but beneath that, there is a tender longing and suppressed homosexual love. Sabretooth Yearns For Wolverine In Insomniac's Game: "Hate And Love Are So Hand In Hand" By Patrick Scanlon The Washington Post's Marvel's Wolverine review landed at three stars, but the part getting passed around isn't the score. It's Sabretooth. Reviewer Gene Park describes a scene during an assault on a military base where Sabretooth grabs the back of Logan's head, and Park reads the moment as longing, not menace. Insomniac says that's exactly what it is. "Hate And Love Are So Hand In Hand" Narrative director Walt Williams told the Post the beat is written that way on purpose.By the way, the studio that produced this employed the services of Woke Compliance Officers "Sweet Baby Inc.," who have inserted gayness and Muh Representation into dozens of games, most of which subsequently failed. I don't know if this is their handiwork, but even if it is, it is Insomniac studios who implemented it and now proudly boast of it. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

One of the chicks writing the show should have just been told to make herself useful and go make some sandwiches because this was here woke take on things. The mom or grandma was fearless for living in a crime ridden shithole. "In the episode, Bernadette tells Laura Linney’s Guardian that Hal gets to live without fear because he’s a white man, and asks how fair it is to ask a Black man in America if he’s afraid. She also spends John’s entire childhood conditioning him to feel no fear, right down to lying that birds are watching him for the Guardians. The writer’s own words cut that defense off at the knees. She doesn’t view Bernadette as wrong. She views her as the most fearless person in the story, passed over by a biased ring." Posted by: Stateless - Ralphy - 105 years old!

I always mention it but for those who missed it -the last great thing was "Stargirl" available on Amazon Prime. Three seasons - 13 episodes. Brec was about 20 but played a pretty teenager perfectly. Her stepdad was her sidekick AND MENTOR. Yeah, the girl actually needed the guy. Fun show with Solomon Grundy AND a big giant robot. Brec had a picture on Instagram. She's only 5'2" but she would have made a nice 'Supergirl' too. Posted by: Stateless - Ralphy - 105 years old! Puppy at heart! at September 16, 2026 04:43 PM (Sco7b) 39

James Gunn always doesn't know where the vulgar line is. If you've ever watched a Peacemaker episode, that becomes clear. He's the type of man that needs a director or editor disallowing shots, maybe like the old comics code board.
He can write and direct compelling stories, when someone else stops him from his worst impulses. As for Green Lantern, I'm 3 episodes in...and really, all the characters are made to be generally unlikeable as they work on saving the Earth. The "nicest Mary Sue" characters in the 1st 3 episodes are probably the female sheriff and her lawyer husband (followed by John Stewart's brothers, but they have a lesser role). So, while it's somehat anti-white, those folks are actually white and semi-redeeming. I think the more compelling story is that he took the standard that it's the Stewart parents who had this dream for Jon to be Green Lantern b/c their dad failed. There is something compelling at watching parents be horrible to their kid in order for him to achieve their dream...and maybe his? That's the compelling part of the backstory.

Or, is that too easy? The guy is already wearing gay clothes, and he hangs out with the maid. One of those guys is named "Little John". And, in a callback to the serial killer in "Silence of the Lambs", we have ourselves a "Friar Tuck". Seems to me Mel Brooks didn't go far enough, and I think this a great vehicle for HBO to enlighten us with a Gay, looting, and luting, bunch of guys with sexual ambiguity who all have nicknames related to their junk. Plus, bonus, the lead character has a girl's name. King Richard becomes King Dick, and King "John" hangs out in the outhouse looking to show his dominance by railing some poor mail peasant.

Literally for cash grab reasons. When Discovery overspent to acquire Warner Bros., it took on $80 billion in debt. The CEO David Zaslav ordered the divisions to look through their libraries of IP and milk any cow that still could produce any milk at all. He wanted to make Warner Bros. look like it could make money, so that he could sell it off. Posted by: ace at September 16, 2026 04:50 PM (1wjle) 76

55 I don't get why this Harry Potter show is being made at all.
They already made movies of all the books, and the movies were all big hit blockbusters and the roles are all strongly associated with those actors. But beyond that, all the non-woke fans are annoyed with the race-swapping, and all the woke fans hate JKR because she says crazy Nazi shit like "men aren't women". So, who do they think is going to watch it? Posted by: Cave Johnson at September 16, 2026 04:47 PM (WhtqQ) Harry Potter is 1) fantasy and 2) after my time so 3) I am out of the loop on it…but…from my understanding the TV show had the potential to be even more book accurate than the movies. Hence their getting made. Note: I said HAD the potential. The castung choices are a warning of what else may have been changed, with Miss Rowling’s consent as I believe she is involved with the show.

I hate admitting this, but if you strip the woke stuff (and I agree with Ace's take on all of it) I think there's a good show in Lanterns. I like Kyle Chandler's as Hal Jordan. And Green lantern was to me always a character that I never cared much for. But it's just beat over your head the "supremacy" of black people. It's another version of Mary Sue.

That's the compelling part of the backstory. right because Black Men Have to Do Twice the Work to Get Half the Credit. Pass.

Posted by: ace at September 16, 2026 04:48 PM (1wjle) It's not twice the work - it's really that dad went mental and couldn't handle failure...and mom gave him the path back from failure by committing them to make dad's dream come true. It's like the worst "my kid has to live out my dreams" angle... It makes Jon cold and generally unlikeable as well...he's lived a life that wasn't his...but his parents...and really didn't have much choice in the matter, at least as a kid...

You forgot the most hilarious part of the woke mess of Lanterns.
His abusive parents decided to raise him to be without fear, by doing absurd nonsense like shooting things on top of his head. One of the ways they exposed him to danger to eliminate fear was by.... driving him to a ghetto black neighborhood and telling him to get out of the car and walk home. That's right guys. The black people know the most dangerous thing to do is walk through a black neighborhood. Right after it lectured about 'black men having fear in America'. It's actually comical.

Is the wolverine game actually bad? girlfriend and I played for 6 hours. We are huge X-Men fans and we had a ton of fun tbh. I think if you like X-Men and understand that it's an alternate universe you too will enjoy it because at the end of the day, you are a cool guy with claws dismembering bigots. The floor is 7/10. None of the complaints seem tinted wtih culture anything. The complaints seem to be focused on weak storytelling, a too linear game, and too much hand holding. the clips I've seen have backed this up. Watch the Skill Up review if you want, he's not really one for culture war stuff. Sounds like, once again, capitalism is at fault here. A friend of mine (I use the term lightly) has begun sending me dozens of “Wolverine has GONE WOKE” videos. Unfortunately for these people anything even slightly mediocre has to be woven into their bullshit culture war ideology A consulting firm called Sweet Baby Inc helped develop the script I think. They're very controversial with the gamergate crowd, because they ensure games are representative, diverse, and non-offensive.

Not seeing this in the news but looks like Swedish election produced a razor thin victory for the left over far right parties (i.e. opposed to mass immigration). Ballots still being counted so it could change but that seems doubtful. Probably more than 95% of immigrants that can vote supported the left so the victory was imported.

Posted by: Captain Obvious, Laird o' the Sea at September 16, 2026 05:12 PM (amcLV) HBO did put out a Deadwood movie a decade or so ago that did end the series a little better than a never resolved plot-line in the last season.

I noticed a long time ago that when there is a lack or loss of talent and creativity in black entertainment products, a recurring default plot feature is showing black people beating up white people.

Posted by: beckster ======== I'll tell you a secret direct from the House floor in the 80's, a lot of members have no idea what they are voting on and floor staff tells them what leadership wants to them to vote. This has been going on decades if not longer and the Senate had ga ga 80 and 90 years back then too that had to be staffers run their office. Not too long ago before Lady Lindsay, Strom Thurmond lived in a special suite at Walter Reed Hospital and was wheeled in when needed for a vote and then promptly wheeled back out and transported back to the hospital. And not to put too fine a point in it, there is no way that 2/3rds of each house will vote for term limits. A convention of the states can be held by 2/3rds vote but any amendment from that still has to pass 3/4 of state legislators, many of which dream of a job until death in Congress.

There's a weird pseudo-cultural dynamic beginning to solidify.
The nominal "culture" is 100% fake and gay and does nothing for anybody. But little subcultures are springing up that thrive on either shilling for it or getting rageclicks over it. People will eventually (if not already) stand to earn more as a career path by joining the meta-culture, and at some point the inversion will become incontrovertible and the meta-culture will become the true culture. "Shows" and "Movies" will only exist as intentional grist for the babble mills. No one will derive any amusement from the crap itself, only from watching their favorite face reacting to the crap, positively or negatively.

Stopped watching "Lanterns" after episode #3 which was the most racist/offensive thing I have ever seen on TV or otherwise.
I collected the Silver Age Green Lantern comic book series when I was younger up until the early 2000s...still have them all including the first appearance of Hal Jordan in DC's "Showcase" comic book published in 1959. So I'm pretty sure I can say with authority on the subject that this is the absolute WORST (and most offensive) adaptation of a given superhero EVER! For anyone who is interested on how to do good superhero TV, definitely check out any of the shows from the animated DC universe that started with the Batman Animated series in the early 1990s and concluded in the mid-2000s with the excellent Justice League animated show. I'd put those shows up against any of the best TV produced (live or animated) of any era. They were the perfect blend of entertainment for both young and older audiences with very well-written stories, excellent characterization, and terrific voice work and scoring. They clearly had folks behind them that knew the genre and how to make it both fun and serious enough for all to enjoy, with no wokeness in sight.

Once upon a time, I aspired to be the next John Byrne. However, both a lack of speed (and more importantly my salvation) turned me away from that career path. Looking at what has become of those Marvel characters in the intervening years has made me happy about my decision.
I have been following Mr Byrne and his Elsewhen project, though. As far as I'm concerned, that is canon. Sabertooth is Wolverine's dad, and he doesn't have bone claws. Period. Posted by: goozer at September 16, 2026 06:01 PM (eTh1u) 231

"Our books are for boys from 8 to 15, because when they turn 16 they discover girls and then we've lost them" ~ Stan Lee It's a boy's adventure medium. Always has been. >I still have (in the original plastic covers) the issues for 'The Death of Superman' and 'The Rebirth of Superman' Last I checked, worth about $6 each. CAD. Because everyone else did the same thing. There are a number of plot elements in Lanterns that are startlingly similar to Hard Travelin' Heroes, the subtle-as-an-anvil Denny O'Neal political screed that not only destroyed Green Lantern as a viable property for decades, but caused DC as a whole to hard pivot away from any hint of real-world issues in their comics. It's likely coincidence, but that doesn't make it better - it just shows that these assholes have been running the same playbook since the 1970s.

I'm going to nail my colours to the mast right now: the Silver Age Green Lantern was never good. The writers didn't know what to do with the character, who was originally conceived of as a superheroic King Arthur figure; Hal spent a lot of time chasing down petty crooks and engaging in Lois-and-Superman hijinks with Carol Ferris.
The best Silver Age Green Lantern stories were the year of exile issues, when Hal was exiled from Earth for using his ring for personal benefit and had to roam around his sector actually being a Green Lantern for once. All kinds of gonzo cosmic superhero goodness, Guardians politics, alien Lanterns. You could do that on a TV show budget with today's CGI. Posted by: Daneil Ream at September 16, 2026 06:35 PM (LgYtf) Report: ActBlue Raised Illegal Foreign Money for Democrats and Then Covered It UpIn before the guy who says "nothing will happen" says "nothing will happen." Alas, I agree. We've been watching this story for years and like all other stories about Democrat Party corruption and treasonous partnership with hostile foreign actors, nothing ever happens.Dem fundraising giant ActBlue accused of fraudulent donation 'cover-up' in explosive report If you remember, ActBlue deliberately disabled its billing software's zip code check, so that foreigners could donate to Barack Obama without the system flagging these illegal donations. They're now running a similar gain. Federal law requires a passport number be included by people donating from overseas. ActBlue deliberately crippled its own system. Instead of actually checking if these were valid passport numbers belonging to US citizens entitled to donate to American politicians, ActBlue's system only checked if the string of numbers had the right number of numbers in it. As an example,Mb< the report cited a letter by ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones to Committee on House Administration Chairman Bryan Steil, R-Wis., which maintained that donations on the platform made by people with addresses outside the U.S. required a passport number for verification. But Republicans alleged that the verification "only ensures that the entered passport number contains a certain number of characters, not that it is a valid U.S. passport number," rendering it an essentially meaningless step.They consider it a minor detail not worth looking into when an online donation comes from communist China: The report also included excerpts purporting to show ActBlue supervisors green-lighting donations despite "red flags," including a memo lauding a donation as a "great accept" but noting, "Donor sometimes has an IP in Hong Kong, but none of their other signals raise any eyebrows." Another communication appears to show an ActBlue supervisor maintaining that a denied contribution "should have been accepted." The rest of the memo stated, "It is a foreign contribution, but the name/email match, the IP/billing match, a full address with the correct country code, and there were previously accepted and successful contributions." "The donor uses an Arkansas state code, which isn't great, but [the] system can be wonky with requiring state codes for foreign donors," the rest of the message stated.

I've mentioned this here a couple of times, but a few years ago I spent time working in campaign finance compliance and I had access to raw FEC data for candidates and committees.
The ActBlue donations back then absolutely SCREAMED fraud and straw contributions. You'd see thousands and thousands of odd-number donations from obviously-bullshit names, and the total of any one "person's" contributions always conveniently fell just short of the $201 threshhold above which a name, address, occupation, etc. have to be included in the reporting.

My favorite part of looking at Dem fundraising is seeing some unemployed/retired person that has supposedly been giving odd, small, irregular donations for years: $7 today, $9 four days later, $5 the next week and so on who shows no other signs of political activity.
My working theory is that someone is given a large sum of money and a group of straw donor accounts. So it isn't that retired Ms Smith gave that $7. The Act Blue/bundler was given $7K and one thousand accounts to launder it through Posted by: 18-1 at September 16, 2026 03:44 PM (sKqQm) 39

They make this sound like singular illegal donations. I don't think that is what is happening at all. I whole heartedly believe that ActBLu is part of the process associated with the Somali Fraud, and various other immigrant run (and non-immigrant run) fraud operations.
The are defrauding the government under various programs (childcare, hospice, in home care etc.) BILLIONS....not millions....BILLIONS. A good portion of the fraudulent funds are then sent overseas. This is documented by the TSA whistleblower in Minneapolis estimated $6 Million was leaving that city via international air 3 times per week. That's just Minneapolis. Add to that Biden adding $47 Billion to those programs and taking down most of the oversight before leaving office. That puts Billions overseas, and a portion of that comes back into the US via "donations" to ActBlu. The Republican investigative view of this is hopelessly inadequate, and naive. And, yes ActBlu is reporting record funding for 2026. It continues. Posted by: Orson at September 16, 2026 03:47 PM (dIske) 48

Posted by: Blonde Morticia at September 16, 2026 03:48 PM (XJ22o) ======= I really think it is. Demcorats had shifted to not needing voters. They didn't need them for money (grant money laundering) or votes (fortification) which allowed them to, without fear, grant as much power in the party and government to crazies as they wanted. The need to appeal to Peoria was no longer there. An entire generation of activists, operatives, elected officials, and bureaucrats who simply don't know any other way to win elections.

ActBlue will take American's credit card number and charge a "small" fee several times a week or month. Maybe only $7 or $27 or whatever. But they'll do this every week or month... forever or until you make a concerted effort to stop it, or the card expires.
American donors to ActBlue were shoveling 100's of millions a year into that outfit. They were doing something similar with overseas accounts... in addition to pulling millions from overseas donors. Illegally. Posted by: Martini Farmer at September 16, 2026 04:00 PM (2Cry5) 94

it's over 135 comment so I'll bring back the water topic from the art thread.
I recently found out that the Salton Sea wasn't always there. California brought it into existence in 1905 when they drained the Colorado River for it. A bunch of fools made this unnatural reservoir into a resort and now, of course, it is drying up, because Saudis need the river for alfalfa. Can't piss off them princes. The second-wind of this place may be because there is an underground briny reservoir. This brine has lithium. So the Salton area may be able to outdo the Sauds at their own game: sell a resource for $$$ and build an artificial pleasure palace. Posted by: 88C+u at September 16, 2026 04:14 PM (88C+u) 155

AWFLs do the surrogate thing for two reasons, as I see it.
They don't want the post-partum weight gain, and they don't want their ham-flaps loose enough to fly a C-130 through. But mostly because they don't want their ham-flaps loose enough to fly a C-130 through. Posted by: IllTemperedCur at September 16, 2026 04:17 PM (y9nCu) ------- I think it's less the flappy ham wallet than it is that they refuse to take responsibility or accountability for literally anything, so they hire out a uterus so they can keep partying while some poor woman gestates their spawn for them. Surrogacy should be banned Federally. That we ever allowed this wild moral hazard and atrocity to start with is bad enough. Ban it yesterday.

That's right -- "Pinko" magazine, the magazine for gay communists.

Last thread:
It's probably been said but pretty much all of this should be laid at the feet of Sleepy Joe who jacked inflation up to 9% and let everything get expensive quickly. That inflation is now baked into the cake unless we're willing to roll the dice on an actual deflationary cycle which basically nobody is willing to do. So you can be mad about it but sitting here fuming that Trump isn't doing enough to give you cheap hamburgers isn't exactly a productive use of anyone's time. Posted by: ballistic at September 16, 2026 02:31 PM (oqH4h) As a rhetorical matter, we could blame the Federal Reserve chairman that the courts wouldn't let Trump fire. As a practical matter, no one else would risk a deflationary trap either, let alone induce it on purpose, but making it specific is in their own Rules for a reason. It's effective.

The entire list of Mamdani's cabinet appointments is both depressing and hilarious. If it isn't a Muslim, then it is one of those stereotypical DSA plain Jane's. There are quite a few beta male dweebs, and every position that has traditionally been male (Police Commish, Fire Commish etc.) is some DEI promotionally expedited female.
What a crew. There's one woman in there who is so incompetent and whacky, that Congress shot her down for an economic position in the Biden administration. Her primary accomplishment is having widespread crime and fraud take place under a position she held in California. NYC is, absolutely and positively, SCREWED.

It's probably been said but pretty much all of this should be laid at the feet of Sleepy Joe who jacked inflation up to 9% and let everything get expensive quickly. That inflation is now baked into the cake unless we're willing to roll the dice on an actual deflationary cycle which basically nobody is willing to do. So you can be mad about it but sitting here fuming that Trump isn't doing enough to give you cheap hamburgers isn't exactly a productive use of anyone's time. Posted by: ballistic at September 16, 2026 02:31 PM (oqH4h) As a rhetorical matter, we could blame the Federal Reserve chairman that the courts wouldn't let Trump fire. As a practical matter, no one else would risk a deflationary trap either, let alone induce it on purpose, but making it specific is in their own Rules for a reason. It's effective.

Google returns... That sounds like it could be the setup for a fascinating conversation or an unexpected situation, depending on the context! Whether you are hanging out, debating, or just killing time, people with distinct political and social viewpoints usually have a lot of unique perspectives to share. If you are looking for ways to navigate the situation, here are a few directions you could take: Have a deep discussion: Ask them about how they view modern economics, community-building, or historical movements. Find common ground: Move past labels and talk about universal topics like music, movies, food, or local news. Keep it casual: If you aren't in the mood for a heavy political debate, you can easily steer the conversation toward lighthearted or everyday subjects Posted by: Stateless - Ralphy 105 years old - puppy at heart at September 16, 2026 03:15 PM (Sco7b) 176

OT Feel-good story of the day:
ABC News: 'I feel kidnapped': Latino immigrants say they're in legal limbo after being deported to country in Africa Roughly 25,000 people have been deported to so-called third countries. Ten years ago, Moreno de Armas arrived in the U.S. after fleeing Cuba. He was legally allowed into the country under a policy that permitted Cubans who reached U.S. soil to stay and pursue legal residency. He was living in Miami with his family and working at a meatpacking plant when federal immigration authorities detained him last May. He had been trying to obtain legal status through asylum after other forms of legal relief were denied. Some of the new destinations include Liberia, Ghana, the Central African Republic and Sierra Leone. "We don't have a visa here or any papers, we are illegal," said Aristides Fernandez Garcia, a Cuban immigrant who was also deported. "We're prisoners here, they won't let us leave or go anywhere. Right now, even if I want to and have the means to travel to any other country, I can't." "I feel kidnapped," Fernandez Garcia said. "They have violated all the rights that exist in life, because we are human beings."

I then typed into Google I am alone with a MAGA supporter. Stay calm, avoid political topics, and leave the area immediately if you feel unsafe. Immediate Safety Steps Do not argue. Silence or a nod does not mean you agree. It keeps the room peaceful. Change the subject. Talk about the weather, food, sports, or work. Plan an exit. Look for the door. Check your phone. Make up a polite excuse to leave if you feel stressed. How to Stay Calm Breathe slowly. Take deep breaths to lower your heart rate. Keep quiet. You do not need to fix their views today. Protect your peace. Remind yourself that you can walk away at any time Wow. AI is amazing.... Posted by: Stateless - Ralphy 105 years old - puppy at heart at September 16, 2026 03:18 PM (Sco7b) 187

I found this on our Moreno de Armas:
News accounts simply note the denial was due to filing after the parole expired. A court document in his later habeas case describes his 2016 entry as “without inspection or parole,” which is somewhat at odds with the contemporaneous wet-foot/dry-foot parole descriptions in media reports; the discrepancy has not been publicly clarified in available coverage. --- So, if you read between the lines, it's because he didn't come in direct from Cuba--he snuck in through a third country, maybe from MX. So he couldn't establish when he "landed" so his application to stay was denied. Posted by: People's Hippo Voice at September 16, 2026 03:33 PM (3cUTc) 230

However, no exclusively Muslim cemetery exists in this city, where “go home” is a familiar anti-Muslim slur. Despite our building community institutions, connections, and lives in New York, “home” doesn't exist for us here in death. Families bury their loved ones upstate, in New Jersey, and as far away as Pennsylvania. While small Muslim sections do exist in some cemeteries within the five boroughs, the demand far exceeds the supply." Posted by: beckster at September 16, 2026 03:37 PM (kX27y) 233

Mahmood Mamdani himself was born in Bombay (now Mumbai), India, in 1946—while his father was temporarily there attending college—his family's roots in East Africa run deep. His paternal grandparents were Gujarati Muslim migrants who moved to East Africa, and both of his parents were subsequently born and raised in the British territory of Tanganyika (now present-day Tanzania). When Mahmood Mamdani was two years old, the family returned to Tanganyika before relocating permanently to Uganda a few years later, where he grew up. (Wikipedia) (Under the British colonial system in East Africa, the social and economic structure was organized into a strict, three-tiered racial hierarchy that placed Indian immigrants in a more elite middle position above Black Africans.) The family itself was part of "divisive power of wealth and race," as many South Asians adopted the prejudices of the colonial system. Posted by: L - No nic... at September 16, 2026 04:18 PM (NFX2v) Day-Old Quick HitsThis was intended as yesterday's quick hits, but news of Larry Kramer's potential criminal charges for perjury and obstruction of justice bumped it. Although these Quick Hits were baked yesterday, they are still edible. Just put them under a wet paper towel and microwave them for 10 seconds.Northern BarbarianI agree. I had intended to say so in the earlier post. The left keeps threatening to pack the court 1, to make the public accept it when they do it, and 2, to in the meantime pressure the "conservative" majority to sell out to the left to forestall them from packing the court. I say we leverage the court's fear of popular backlash in our own favor. We should campaign to pack the court with six hard-core based conservatives. And then let Kavanaugh and Roberts and Coney-Barret write decisions to appease us. And look, the left is going to pack the court. This isn't just bluffing. Do we have to play the faintheart sucker forever? Can we not act decisively in our own interests, ever? Kash Patel is working with Congress on legislation to ban birth tourism. Better act quick. Chinese billionaires are basically filling up America with their clones. He's creating his own horde of descendants in, as John Kerry would say, in a manner reminiscent of Jengis Khan. This superfecudity strategy is insane and should be criminalized. It's dangerous -- when you secret sire a literal Mongolian horde of children, the odds become pretty good that sons will begin marrying sisters, having no idea that they're direct blood relatives. Spain's socialist bitch Pedro Sanchez wants the cameras to see him shaking hands with an African migrant. He was probably not happy to see the cameras caught him vigorously wiping off his hand after "welcoming" the immigrant. Karl Rove signals his virtue. I'm done with this crew. Speaking of: Super-Conservative (TM) Tom Massie, who is definitely not a flaky closet case, has filed articles of impeachment against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. He's vag-mad that the Secretary of War sometimes orders men into, um, war.

The favorite sandwich of legendary Beatles drummer Ringo Starr is remarkably simple: cheese on bread -- but not just any cheese. "What is the best sandwich?" late-night television host Stephen Colbert asked Starr during a 2021 appearance on "The Late Show." "I don't have a lot of them anymore, but cheese," Starr answered. He said he loved cheese before clarifying, "But it has to be goat cheese now." When Colbert questioned his preference for goat cheese, Starr said, "I don't eat anything from the cow because the molecules are so big. Have you seen a cow? The molecules are so big. And that's why if you drink a glass of milk, you're full. With a goat, it's a good size for our bodies."Haven't I been trying to tell you guys for 20 years that the molecules in cow's milk are too big? You big dummies, you never listen to me.

So two odds things I've noticed on the left side of the internet:
1) The left claims the US matching Canadian tariffs is fascism and an affront to Canadian autonomy. What...? You can argue all tariffs are bad sure. But...the argument here is the US can't set its own trade policy AND that matching other country's trade policy is taking away their autonomy?!? 2) The left has gone all in on "billionaires are why everything is expensive" and yet Musk and Bezos (while outside of giving money to Dems) have done nothing to me. My biggest bill is taxes. I'm paying twice as much for everything vs 5 years ago because of government spending and the costs of insurance and healthcare have skyrocketed because of all the foreigners the government has brought in. Musk/Bezos did none of that. Posted by: 18-1 at September 16, 2026 01:33 PM (sKqQm) 47

Well, this is interesting - ---------------- Howie Carr @HowieCarrShow · 1h BREAKING…. Kevin Reddington, Lindsay Clancy’s lawyer, has federal tax liens of $2.37 million for unpaid taxes on his Marshfield mansion, according to public records on file at the Plymouth County Registry of Deeds. Reddington bought his now-assessed-at-$2.3-million estate in 2017, and has liens from the IRS dating back to 2018, through 2024. Reddington is the public face of the free-Lindsay Clancy mob that is so outraged that the holdout juror allegedly owes $12,600 in unpaid rent, and is being evicted by his landlord in Bridgewater. There is no record that any of the $2.37 million in IRS liens on Reddington’s property have been discharged, i.e., paid off. Reddington did not return calls seeking comment on his apparently unpaid tax debts. Posted by: beckster at September 16, 2026 01:39 PM (kX27y) 75

More from the NYP's item:
Starr’s explanation about the size of the animals and their “molecules” isn’t backed by science, but there are structural differences between goat and cow milk. Research has found that goat milk generally contains a higher proportion of smaller fat globules than cow milk and differs in its fat and protein composition. Those differences, along with the way the proteins form curds during digestion, may affect how the two types of milk are digested. So he's not right, but he's not as retarded as he sounded.

It’s pretty clear something has to be done about the hyper partisan and corrupt Supreme Court. They are killing our democracy one ruling at a time. I’ll support just about anything they want to do about it.
The legacy of Bitch McConnell. He had set his sights on filing the court with young, explicitly Conservative justices since the Obama era, and he does not get enough hate for it. Obama shouldn’t have pressured Biden to let Hillary run instead in 2016. If he hadn’t, Biden probably wins in 2016 and we get a liberal majority court. They stole a supreme court seat and used it to repeal women's healthcare and black voting rights, overturning both precedent and congress. There is no respect left for the supreme court. Democrats need to take a sledgehammer to the status quo. The court is already packed. We need to talk about it that way. Progressives were screaming for this back in 2021-2024 but were told we were too radical, now that Trump won and basically dominates America is when Dems decide to listen lol Posted by: Intercepted Reddit Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at September 16, 2026 01:43 PM (5HGTQ) 110

Here's another thing on the economy, regarding Q2's numbers:
"Q2 2026 Government Spending Details Overall Impact: The decline in government outlays subtracted about 0.2 percentage points from real gross domestic product (GDP) growth. Federal vs. State: Federal outlays contracted by 4.2%, while combined federal and state/local outlays overall pulled down the sector, driven largely by reductions in nondefense spending despite a modest 2.4% increase in defense spending." This is after Q4 of last year saw government spending contract by 5.6% (government shutdown everyone forgot happened) and then rebound partially with +4.4% in Q1. Everyone has said forever that the key to economic growth and restricting inflation was contracting government spending. Well, Trump's doing that. And no, increased energy costs because of a conflict is not inflation. Posted by: TheJamesMadison, discovering British horror with Hammer Films at September 16, 2026 01:47 PM (NrFex) 129

146 TJM, I have an actual economics question I can't figure out. I need simple shapes and colors I guess.
if, in a highly leveraged economy, a downturn makes all the leveraged investments collapse, is that going to reduce the money supply, and will that be a form of deflation? I think it does, since credit is part of the money supply, but I can't get my head around it. Posted by: Kindltot at September 16, 2026 01:51 PM (rbvCR) ======== Over my head.

"I don't have a lot of them anymore, but cheese," Starr answered. He said he loved cheese before clarifying, "But it has to be goat cheese now."
When Colbert questioned his preference for goat cheese, Starr said, "I don't eat anything from the cow because the molecules are so big. Have you seen a cow? The molecules are so big. And that's why if you drink a glass of milk, you're full. With a goat, it's a good size for our bodies." Ringo is right.

Trump did run on inflation, but I seriously doubt it was one of the key factors in his win.
Inflation had largely come under control by the time 2024 election season started. I think the strongest element was immigration. Life just got worse under Biden, and it was easy (and accurate) to point the finger at the millions of new arrivals who made the country worse in a myriad of ways (including driving up prices in ways that weren't inflation by increasing the demand for everything without increasing the supply).

Its more complicated that than. Ethanol replaced MTBE—an octane increasing additive that California banned because it caused too much environmental damage. And MTBE replaced TEL because Tetraethyl lead is considered bad for the environment too. And the alternatives: Alkylate and Toluene, Xylene would increase the prices of fuel massively.

>it, uhm, wasn't even about the M&Ms, but to check how carefully the facility would read the contract
I thought everyone knew this already. It was common knowledge when I was a roadie (briefly) back around 1990. The pyrotechnic, electrical and sheer weight requirements for the stage show would stress all but the largest venues, so they added the "bowl of M&Ms in the dressing room, but no green ones" as a fast check on whether the contract riders had been followed to the letter. Any half-assing of those could get someone killed, so if the bowl had green M&Ms, some other candy, or wasn't there at all, the band knew they had to double-check every line of the riders to make sure the venue hadn't half-assed something dangerous.

Posted by: Sponge - F*ck Cancer at September 16, 2026 02:26 PM (ccf/V) ------ It's probably been said but pretty much all of this should be laid at the feet of Sleepy Joe who jacked inflation up to 9% and let everything get expensive quickly. That inflation is now baked into the cake unless we're willing to roll the dice on an actual deflationary cycle which basically nobody is willing to do. So you can be mad about it but sitting here fuming that Trump isn't doing enough to give you cheap hamburgers isn't exactly a productive use of anyone's time.

As of 2026, BLM has granted 18,000 grazing permits and leases covering roughly 155 million acres. Yet the Left fights every step of the way through environmental reviews required under federal law, litigation, staff and workload challenges within BLM offices, drought, wildfire, endangered species protections, land health concerns All of that interferes in reasserting cattle grazing rights Posted by: Community Notes at September 16, 2026 02:34 PM (/TiS1) 298

"A woman has discovered she is carrying a baby for reclusive Chinese gaming billionaire Xu Bo, who has allegedly fathered hundreds of children.
"The agency should've been very transparent from before getting matched ... about who it is that you're having a baby for and what the family is," she told CBS News." Patriot Conceptions was founded by Haotian Bai, a U.S. Army Veteran w/civil engineering background, plus a Veteran Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Standard University. The veteran-owned surrogacy and egg donation agency was established in 2019, and is based in Irvine, CA. Reportedly, Haotian Bai is a Chinese immigrant and decorated U.S. Army Veteran (HHC 8th Theater Sustainment Command (TSC)) who holds a Master of Science from Iowa State University, and served as Veteran Fellow at Stanford's Hoover Institution for the 2024-2025 academic year. Beyond surrogacy, Bai is the founder of TrustUS, "a vertical software-as-a-service (SaaS) co. focused on digital legal workflows, secure authentication, and payment processing. Posted by: L - No nic... at September 16, 2026 03:39 PM (NFX2v) 304
The company clearly has a "Surrogacy across borders" branch/section:
01 choose the clinic and birth state first; 02 Plan travel & documents around the birth, 03 Confirm readiness before matching. Get the order right, and paperwork never strands a newborns abroad. The consular route depends on the birth state, the parentage plan, and the document timeline. Confirm citizenship and recognition rules as a first-stage decision- then work backward to the US birth-state and clinic plan. Every state in the US is color-coded by legal posture. In many friendly states, parents secure legal parentage before the baby is born - the birth certification name them from day one. --- BS & I don't feel bad at all for that woman. Sell the baby to a foreign buyer program which bypasses foreign woman coming into the country for birth & birthright citizenship. US women can simply choose to carry babies for the purpose of them automatically being US citizens and "selling" them with an air-tight legal contract to foreign buyers. How the hell can that be stopped?!! (See TX and Cali.) "2,000 families supported, 50 states supported nationwide, 7 years, 4.7 google rating."

That post is me, a woman, advertising women's apparel to other women -- apparel literally marketed around women being hockey fans. My body isn't being used as a decorative prop to sell an unrelated product to men. The only reason women wear bikinis is to appeal to men (or dykes). The only reason women wear bra and panties to work out is to appeal to men. The only reason women get breast, butt or cheek implants is to appeal to men. The only reason women wear makeup is to appeal to men. Yeah, I said it. Women will TELL you it's because they want to 'feel better about themselves,' but when you boil it down, women wouldn't take the time to 'look good' if men didn't care........

But on the other hand, they give ace easy content and we can laugh at them. I called out to Snowflake and her mom Starry and they came running across the street. I didn't know cats are like that. And there are two other neighbourhood cats hanging around. If ace can get his crows together, Hadrian could supply dogs and I cats, maybe we could get an animal Blitzkreig together.

No one is mistaking Sweeney for an athlete. She's barely mistaken for an actress. She's big titted eye candy targeted at men who make up 75% of all sports betting. And its no surprise that a company that preys on gambling addiction has no issue exploiting women in the process.
it’s the sexualization of women in sports in combination with football gambling. I don’t see what there is to be happy about it There's been a billion other examples of sex appeal being used to market products yet Sydney Sweeney is being singled out for some reason. Jealousy and envy by other women. That’s the why. You can’t be my body my choice, but also your body my choice Yeah because there’s no room for nuance so feminism means we actually gotta support all braindead gambling ads. Nobody is coming for your virginity bro you can relax it’s somehow that she’s considered “MAGA”. That’s why everyone is acting like this is the first time an attractive woman was used in advertising. I don’t know who hates her more, other women or incels, but this hate is impressive.

Honestly, progressivism, wokeism is an absolute blank check for liberals women. Reason and truth are no longer of any necessity, its all about emotion and "my truth".

Here's what it's all about:
In the '60s and '70s, the "youth" were the rebels, the counter-culture revolutionaries, the hip kids. Meanwhile, "conservatives" were the shriveled up old people, the unfashionable squares, the ugly prudes. As a result, the commies used young chicks and promises of sex and "free love" and half-naked promiscuous hippie girls to lute peole into leftist thought. The Left is sexy, the right is anti-sex, went the message. Fast-forward several decades, and OOOPS things have reversed -- not entire, but substantially. Yes, younger people still tilt left (due to brainwashing in school), but now, within that cohort, the uglier and fatter you are, the more leftist you tend to be. Hot girls wants to preserve the cultural values that place them at the pinnacle of desirability and thus power. So the prettier and more toned you are, the more "based" you are. So now, to a great extent, the Right is sexy, and the Left is anti-sex. THIS is what the freakout over Sidney Sweeney is based on, at its core. The Left is realizing that they have lost their primary technique to lure in men, which now has been seized by the Right. Posted by: zombie at September 16, 2026 12:35 PM (Av6i5) 126

So now, to a great extent, the Right is sexy, and the Left is anti-sex.
You have to give up the fantasy of being fitter than the fascists. It’s not just that it’s cringe or strategically bad, though it is. I think it’s also politically revealing. Fitness is a measure of relative disposability under capitalism. Our task is not to become less disposable, to become more useful to the ruling order. What we all need to be doing is rejecting disposability in all of its forms. The point is not to beat the fascists at their own game. It is not to lay a better claim on their own territory by being fitter, more eugenic. In fact, the more dysgenic, the better, I think. Revolution is not a contest between optimized and properly prepared bodies. The idea is fascist in and of itself.

I was doing research on AI yesterday on how the loud, crazy vocal minority actually does affect the training models since AI is also trained on social media.
They don't strip out all the stupid and just learn speech patterns so all this does kind of get absorbed. Although there are AIs like PHI just trained on textbooks and literature. It was interesting. But basically, these angry chicks are just a loud minority most of the world will never hear from. And from the Bible project I was working on I've concluded that if these chicks aren't rending their garments, they're not truly pissed, sad or upset.

The only reason women wear makeup is to appeal to men.
Yeah, I said it. Women will TELL you it's because they want to 'feel better about themselves,' but when you boil it down, women wouldn't take the time to 'look good' if men didn't care........ Posted by: Sponge - F*ck Cancer at September 16, 2026 12:18 PM (ccf/V) This last one in the list is the only one I might disagree with. Make up and fancy hair at proms, weddings, and the like? That's not necessarily for the men, though if a man compliments her for it, great. It's often an unspoken competition between the women. Hence, the harshest criticisms of a woman's body usually come first from the woman herself, and then from those women who don't like her. It's why mean girls cliques can drive some adolescent girls to despair, suicide, and the like. They can be quite vicious and detailed. For Sidney, the rage against her selling her body is simply jealousy. Women like this NHL reporter know they don't look like her, that their prime (assuming they had one) is likely in the past, and they don't like that very in-your-face reminder.

It seems like the cops respond poorly to attitude, but they didn't shoot Willis. So not sarcasm? If "meat popsicle" is supposed to be a real creature, why would Willis claim to be that?

I think this is half of it. The left has gone all in on Marxist anti-normalcy. If you're on the side of the revolution, you can get away with anything you want. Sweeney has famously chosen not to kiss the ring, so they consider her an enemy. The other half is jealous women hate her for being hot. They hide their attacks in the words of the revolution (setting women back, setting women athletes back), but their primal motivation is sexual jealousy.

I worked in the movies in the wayback America everyone seems to love, but now men cannot do that anymore and avoid jail time (or at least a 6 game suspension) So you are going to have to police your own.

But this is not the time to have that conversation, because the predicate is poison. The Social Justice inquisitors are just mad at the heretic Sydney Sweeney for refusing to affirm their holy catechism. The details are window dressing, and fake and gay.

____________________ Not to make a big deal over it, but just about every photograph of Emma Lingan that SHE provides to the public shows her half dressed with her boobs pushing out past a comfortable pressure zone, and risking flying buttons that could put someone's eye out. I'll tell you what I noticed. Lingan has the same body build as Sweeney. Even the same short stocky body. Her nose is pushing Jimmy Durante territory. Sweeney gets the seven figure ad deals. Lingan does not. There is your motivation for displaying her stupidity to the rest of us. Posted by: Orson at September 16, 2026 01:07 PM (dIske) 310

Being the father of a lefty daughter, I can speak to how lefty women look at the world.
They've been taught to regurgitate "facts" without putting forth any effort to examine the premise upon which the so-called "facts" are based. The other effect is laziness. These women are not only too lazy to think, they also believe they don't have to put forth any effort to make themselves attractive to the opposite sex. Which is why we get scoldilocks in a dog collar making a video complaining about Sydney Sweeney. Posted by: Blake - semi lurker in marginal standing at September 16, 2026 01:08 PM (eGzf1) 315

From Wiki:
Peterson released her memoir, Yours Cruelly, Elvira: Memoirs of the Mistress of the Dark, on September 21, 2021. She revealed in the book that she has been in a relationship with a woman, Teresa "T" Wierson, since 2002. They began their romantic relationship following Peterson's separation from her husband. Peterson identifies as sexually fluid, though she also accepts "pansexual" as a label. Peterson was a vegetarian for many years; as of 2021, she continues to maintain a "mostly vegetarian" diet[61] consisting mostly of organic food.[62] She maintains a "toned...down" regimen of yoga, pilates and physical activity for self-care, and reduced her previous heavy drinking to a more moderate level.

"Female sports journalists are almost without exception humorless, man-hating scolds."
-------------- Linda Cohn being the exception. Posted by: Bea Arthur's Dick at September 16, 2026 05:06 PM (pE12i) Wednesday Morning Rant![]() That article, A Defense Of License Plate Readers, tries to build a case that automatic license plate readers - "ALPR" systems - like Flock are totally fine. It highlights perfectly a now baffling appeal to trust, as well as dipping into "ends justify the means" territory and supporting it with strawmen. It starts out with the appeal to trust, right in its sub-headline: Should we dismantle a super-valuable law enforcement tool just because it's theoretically possible to abuse it?Set aside for a moment that the risks are demonstrably not merely theoretical. The position itself is baffling. If anyone has not learned over the past decade that there is no daylight between a potential risk and a realized risk when it comes to government operations, that person is engaged in self-delusion. But the article doesn't jump right in. In traditional fashion, it starts with a harrowing tale of a violent crime where the offender was found thanks to an ALPR system. There has to be some gut-tugging pathos right up front if the reader can be expected to ignore all of the problems to follow. If it saves just one life, dotchyaknow. After the emotional hook comes the false equivalence: that this is really no different from running a plate during a traffic stop, it's just a teeny little bit broader: ... Officers routinely consult computer-aided dispatch records; driver and vehicle databases; the National Crime Information Center (NCIC); the Interstate Identification Index (III); and various local, state, and regional intelligence systems. These resources allow officers to perform a wide array of investigative tasks. Officers routinely use them to identify wanted persons, locate stolen property, review criminal histories, and share intelligence with other agencies. An ALPR database performs a very similar function. At its most basic level, it records that a publicly displayed license plate, attached to a particular vehicle, passed a particular location at a particular time. ... Thus, consulting an ALPR database is not fundamentally different from querying a license plate or driver's license during a traffic stop or checking a suspect for warrants. Each task involves access to information for a legitimate law enforcement purpose. ...Sure. Pull the other one. It jingles. These things are obviously not the same. One usually involves a traffic stop or, at least, human effort. That requires either a reason to engage in the query (the traffic stop) or enough desire to manually collect and run license plate numbers. Throwing out acronyms and drawing false equivalencies doesn't help the argument, but it does help confuse the issue - and so the tactic is useful. Much later in the article comes the acknowledgment that these things are in fact different, but with an assertion that the difference should be ignored and can be obviated through arbitrary distinctions: A routine license plate check begins with a vehicle that is already encountered by an officer. By contrast, ALPR cameras automatically collect the plate information of all vehicles that pass by. A network of cameras can then assemble those observations much more efficiently than individual officers watching traffic. One concern that has been expressed is that ALPRs can be used to reconstruct one's location and activity history. This is a legitimate concern, and the solution is to adopt rules suited to the scale to which an ALPR system is used. Although a single ALPR hit is not the same thing as GPS tracking, broad or prolonged tracking should require a higher level of approval. In some cases, warrants should be required. However, short-term searches for a stolen car are not the same as reconstructing months of someone's movements.In this case, they are the same. The dragnet is there and the panopticon is built. Setting a time limit on queries that needs a rubber stamp to override it is not a solution. To think it could be a solution is to still be burdened by institutional trust. That the writer has this burden is obvious from elsewhere in the article: Every useful technology comes with risks. An officer can misuse a driver's license database to obtain an ex-girlfriend's address. A dispatcher can access criminal history or CAD notes without a legitimate reason. A detective can leak confidential information to a friend. Such conduct is already prohibited, and many officers have lost their law enforcement certifications and have been prosecuted for improperly accessing restricted information. The problem with the "misuse" objection is that it proves way too much. If possible or actual misuse is enough to stop the public implementation of some technology, then it would apply to almost every government tool or power that has ever been used (whether in a criminal, civil, or administrative context). ...Your terms are acceptable. Getting rid of ALPR systems would be a good start on a wider stand-down of mass surveillance technologies. The more the merrier. None of it - and none of its operators - can be trusted. "Misuse" (which I increasingly think is the wrong word, since these systems appear to be designed to be used in the "wrong" way) is not a risk, it is an inevitability - and it occurs almost immediately. The entire class of thinkpieces from "conservatives" trying to rationalize mass surveillance technology with a rich history of egregious behavior by its operators is baffling. What about mass surveillance is suddenly rock-ribbed? Nothing. It comes from, I think, two sources. The first is vestigial trust, the belief that the system can be "safeguarded against abuse." It can't. Recent and more distant history does not show any success in safeguarding any system against abuse, which is why good systems design aims for systems that are smaller rather than larger and decentralized rather than centralized. Outside of a poorly-construct and weak appeal to non-existent trust, I think there may be something more pernicious involved in some this: short-sighted faith that it's okay because "we're in charge." If you didn't click the links, go read the EFF and ILJ reports I referenced just below the fold. EFF in particular chose to cherry-pick specific abuses that are mostly around communist agitators like "No Kings" and abortion clinics while the ILJ focuses more on immigration and personal abuses like stalking, with no mention of any of these dragnets going against conservatives. Reports like these help provide a false sense of security to the "other side" - these systems are working for you! Comfort in advocating for these systems simply because "your side is in charge," if that is part of it, is short-sighted and foolish to the point of stupidity because even if it's true - and it isn't, as the last decade thoroughly demonstrates - "your side" will not be in charge forever. Articles like this one that extol putative benefits but not the record of abuses, choose "safeguarding" and "rules" as a solution, hearken back to a world of trust that no longer exists, set up strawmen and drift into "the ends justify the means" territory on the back of bloody pathos are themselves prime evidence of core weakness of argument. Universal mass surveillance dragnets are a bad idea, are designed to be "misused" and are antithetical to liberty - and mental gymnastics in weak thinkpieces can do nothing to change that Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

I get the argument that Flock is merely a tool, and we should trust the police because - well, just because. One could say the same thing about the potential for abuse by having ANY police department. The only real solution is to have draconian punishments for abuse of the public trust, but we've seen how that's worked out over the last 10-20 years. That's why trust has been lost.

If there's no legit reason to browse a cities' Flock or other security camera network's data... why are they allowing it?
And then have the municipal government entities who approved the surveillance systems to explain the placement criteria. Why is a camera pointed at a kiddy pool? At a gun store? At a night club? Wouldn't those places have their own security devices inside the perimeter? That the municipalities are unwilling to discuss any of that in public is sort of telling.

BREAKING NEWS: Lena Dunham has welcomed her first child via surrogate.
The 40-year-old Girls creator and husband Luis Felber announced that they had welcomed a new child in an op-ed for Vogue published Wednesday morning. Dunham had kept relatively quiet about her hopes to become a parent after she underwent a hysterectomy in 2018. The actress and writer made the difficult decision to have a total hysterectomy to remove her uterus and cervix and an ovary after enduring years of endometriosis-related pain. Dunham married Peruvian-British musician Felber in a low-key London ceremony back in September 2021. Felber previously revealed how they were set up on a blind date by a mutual friend and got on so well on their first meeting that they 'didn't stop talking for eight hours'.

white people are the worst thing to ever happen to humanity.
- Racism in Hollywood. Hold on tight. Sunny Hostin is playing the race card. The far-Left “View” host played it for personal reasons this time. Hostin, unbeknownst to many, is a published author. Her book series includes titles like “Summer on the Bluffs” and “Summer on Highland Beach.” Turns out at least one tome made it to the New York Times’ Bestseller list. Said list is compromised, sadly, but it’s still a feather in Hostin’s cap. You go, birthing person! That’s not enough, though. She wants to see her stories on the big screen. And she blames racism for their absence. “And the gatekeeping in Hollywood around Black and Brown creative content is insane,” she continued. “I cannot get New York Times best-selling books onto the screen to tell diverse stories to diverse communities.” Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks, Where's My Cookie? at September 16, 2026 11:23 AM (ndZc7) 60

Posted by: Archimedes at September 16, 2026 11:20 AM (Riz8t) The cop is present and, in the event of bad behavior, can take action to either resolve the issue, or protect themselves, depending on the nature of the infraction and the race of the perpetrator. A flock camera compiles a historical record of your activities which can be perused later, when actions which were once legal have been declared illegal. These are not the same.

'Lifelong Democrat' admits she is 'ashamed' of party after son killed in illegal immigrant crash.
Not ashamed when it was other people's kids being killed though. Everything the lefties do is to raise their social status among their peers, despite their total lack of actual accomplishments. The most amusing and telling example is the "non-practicing whites". It's just a fancy way of saying "I'm not like all those other icky white people. I'm better.", despite the absence of any evidence to support the assertion. Posted by: Archimedes at September 16, 2026 11:23 AM (Riz8t) 64
In the television show Person of Interest, Harold Finch builds the ultimate digital panopticon. However, he's very much aware of the potential for abuse.
His solution is to encrypt the "black box" of the Machine so thoroughly that it simply cannot be hacked. The only information anyone is allowed to access is a SSN. "Relevant" numbers--those related to national security concerns--are passed to government agencies. "Irrelevant" numbers--where a crime has been identified that's NOT pertinent to national security--are passed off to Finch and his colleague Reese. In both cases, humans are directed to take a closer look at the SSNs involved, rather then being handed a complete picture of the situation. They must then use OTHER tools to figure out what's going on. Posted by: "Perfessor" Squirrel at September 16, 2026 11:24 AM (FZ29D) 65

Archimedes,
Ultimately the problem is not, as your example points out, 'the individual camera'. It's the backend supercollation, the lack of strong abuse prevention, and the worshipful faith that 'the system says that your car was there, so I ignore the evidence of my eyes' as has been seen in some cases.

I don't buy the privacy argument because when you are in public you have no expectation of privacy. However the abuses of the technology is the problem. Stories about cops stalking their ex's and present girlfriends makes a strong argument against these cameras. I live on a main street and there is a school diagonally across from me about 100 yards away. The city installed cameras to monitor speeding in the school zone for 'safety". I don't see it being any safer, but the city makes a lot of money from tickets.

The cop is expected to make at least an attempt to provide notice that they believe you have broken the law immediately at that time. You know immediately what you will need to compile to prove otherwise. Even if you cannot prove otherwise or the courts do not later accept that proof, you personally know the truth of what happened.
None of this is true when you receive an accusation a month later, or two months later, with nothing but a few photographs at best documenting the crime. Unless you are someone who thinks constantly in terms of alibis, there is rarely anything you can recall from that specific moment and place to successfully counter the accusation even in your own mind, let alone that of the court.

Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at September 16, 2026 11:34 AM (1z8ji) ---- The visible, physical presence of the cop also acts as a *deterrent* to crime because criminals are less likely to commit a crime if they reasonably believe that they will be chased down by a nearby cop. However, Flock cameras (and other surveillance tools) are NOT readily visible or identifiable as such, so criminals will be MORE likely to commit crimes if they believe that they are not being surveilled.

You should throw in something regarding the youtube video that came out about how LG TV's record every conversation, even when off the internet and unplugged (so on internal battery) and send the info home to "LG" for a "better, targeted, marketing experience" once it's reconnected.
I imagine the same thing that Amazon/Facebook/TikTok (?)/etc do on phones and how you miraculously receive emails with products you are interested in 10 minutes you mention you "love cashews". You KNOW the DIA has their fingers in that and are getting a copy of everything you do and storing it somewhere to be queried by a GS-7 who wants to know secret stuff about his ex-girlfriend.

As you said the cop is watching for bad behavior and he will react to that, he is not standing there 24/7 collecting data on every person that walks by him that will be preserved and be searchable forever.
Cops, especially beat cops, know most of the people on their beat, and form a picture of which ones are a problem over time. In a sense, they are gathering data 24/7. I suppose you could argue that they have a lot more "reasonable cause" to gather data on someone than does a Flock camera. Posted by: Archimedes at September 16, 2026 11:40 AM (Riz8t) 123

Any tech used by law enforcement can be abused. It doesn’t mean we shouldn’t use its it means put better guardrails to prevent abuse. It will never be 100% but no system is. As a society we routinely tolerate negatives from a system/process because the positives vastly outweigh them. 40k people die in car crashes every year but we don’t get rid of cars as an example.

The purpose of a system is what it does. All the blah-blah yadda-yadda can be safely ignored, as just sales pitch and rationalization.
The one good thing that ALPRs can do that nothing else can is something that we don't need yet. I would like to see them all installed but turned off, until we get a Constitutional amendment carving out a 1A exception for Marxism and Islam. When practicing either is a treasonous offense punishable by lifetime banishment from America, then we will want to be able to flip a switch and know where they all are at all times. Until then, a technology powerful enough to round up every last socialist and Muslim in America is one that we should probably at least refrain from, and maybe even forbid.

Dialog that says “ if only, as in if only we had more cameras in an area we could have seen the BAD GUYS, or if only we had better surveillance we could have seen the FACES of the BAD GUYS, or read their license plates”. See the thread here? Of course they were all BAD GUYS. This is what conditioning looks like. Decades of a message, on a loop.

it gets me thinking (uh oh.) What this is is a step closer to omniscience -- the all knowing god in the sky. Here are the problems - abuse of the information for non crimes by those with access - abuse by gov. creating new crimes in emergencies, like covid or global warming. (we are already there.) - abuse by gov creating so many crimes that everyone is guilty of something (we are already there.) - shifting from crime prevention to social control (most of the world is already here - social credit, speech restrictions, theocratic control, ...) And none of the above requires any real leap -- it is the world we are already in and the cameras are just giving the authoritarians and totalitarians a powerful new tool.

Another consideration with surveillance systems is this; when an erroneous "hit" on someone is used to issue a ticket or summons, it typically requires the target to prove otherwise.
For example, a license plate with an "8" on it that is confused with a "B". Imagine the mistake leads to thinking the person in question, or the vehicle, is involved in something other than a speeding or parking violation. The speeding or parking is minor. Yet, if you're compelled to appear in person, your time is consumed with arguing about the validity of the data used to issue the citation in the first place. Not whether it's your fault or not.

So everyone knows where I'm coming from, I have often felt that license plates on cars are a violation.
In CA they have a law (had?) that you get (I think) 6 months before you have to put a real plate on a car. 6 months of no plate for new cars. So tech billionaires would buy a new car every 6 months to keep their car anonymous. I don't mind cops being able to ID a car ***after**** it is found suspect of a crime (speeding or whatever) but the plates reveal ID *before* hand and that feels like a violation of the 14th. They get around that of course by claiming that driving is a "privilege" and not a right. Fuck them. That may have been true in 19th century but it is now a necessity to live.

Better-half once got a ticket from Tucson, our jeep driven by our son got caught by a photo radar trap. The ticket came to her with our son's picture and a copy of her license with the F crossed out an and M hand written. She ignored it, got a subpoena, went to court, the judge says you aren't male throws the ticket out and tells her to pay for the cost of the subpoena. She objects on the grounds it shouldn't have been issued in the first place. The judge attempts charge for additional BS, she stands her ground and judge all waves fees (while the court recorder smirks). She asked about the original fraud but couldn't get anywhere. sigh. Posted by: AZ deplorable moron at September 16, 2026 I got a ticket in TX from a red light camera. In 2023. Problem is, they were made illegal in 2019 by the TX Legislature.

My ideal system would have a constantly changing QR code on every car, revealing a crypto key that allows someone with authorization to query the car for ID but only if (a) they know the key, which expires within seconds or minutes, and (b) they have the authorized equipment which is restricted to trained and licensed authorities only to be used with probable cause.
Use of equipment would be audited and cop would have to explain the probable cause for each use. No one in public would be able to ID a car or see license, just the useless qr code. Of course, AI has mooted this plan as we now can ID cars based on dirt patterns on the fender. Posted by: bob (moron inbobnitus) at September 16, 2026 12:12 PM (1W4K+) 237

Posted by: JM in Illinois at September 16, 2026 12:11 PM (8O9+I) It is my belief that, for a variety of reasons, Erich Mielke's Stasi provided the template for our dystopia. Not just surveillance, but also propaganda, and especially, above all, (there is no appropriate English word for it), the Zersetzung. I think when the Cold War ended and our intelligence apparatus turned against the home country, they looked at the formidable machine Mielke built and said "we can do this on a scale Erich could only imagine in his wildest dreams."

Comfort in advocating for these systems simply because "your side is in charge," if that is part of it, is short-sighted and foolish to the point of stupidity because even if it's true - and it isn't, as the last decade thoroughly demonstrates - "your side" will not be in charge forever.
Exactly my argument against the Patriot Act after 9-11.

A routine license plate check begins with a vehicle that is already encountered by an officer. By contrast, ALPR cameras automatically collect the plate information of all vehicles that pass by.
It allows someone to be followed without any sort of limit. Quite simply, if an individual officer followed someone all day, gathering the information a Flock system can gather, unless the officer was actively investigating said person, the officer would be guilty of harassment and possibly stalking. If a department used several officers, stationed around town, to do the same thing, it would definitely be harassment on the part of the department. All Flock does is substitute a computer and a bunch of cameras for the harassing officer. Posted by: GWB at September 16, 2026 12:32 PM (kU0PQ) 252
This is a legitimate concern, and the solution is to adopt rules suited to the scale to which an ALPR system is used.
Talking about "rules" means nothing without a thorough accompaniment of how vigorously those rules are employed and enforced. Every State has robust rules against voter fraud, but without enforcement the fraud goes rampant. I wholly reject the concept of "no expectation of privacy in public spaces." Unless I am in the act of committing a crime, or it is reasonably inferable that I am going to commit a crime, I have EVERY expectation of privacy in a public space. The Constitution says that the government cannot take any interest in me without a warrant. We need to return to that standard. Enforceably. Posted by: LCMS Rulz! at September 16, 2026 12:37 PM (bufu1) 253
ALPRs are like "perv glasses". Thr problem isn't that people can see and count you, it's that the activity is secret and unseeable. When public photograpgy was deemed legal, Brownie cameras and later video tape recordrs were large and obvious to spot, and if someone speaking to you held a camera, you could change your reaction to disapproval.
Along the same lines, tapping phones was undetectable and therefore ullegal. Even unmarked cars are rare, but the car itself is visible. But the guy in the bushes, looking in your window and idly counting the perfume bottles on your dresser is not. The differences with ALPRs and wearing Perv Glasses from normal behavior is as simple as Spy vs. Spy. And for some good reason the punishment for spying is summary execution.

I know a land where the bluebonnets grow. They bloom on the hills and down where it’s low, in valley, on plain, in path on the lane, and when in the spring the wild flowers blow, they cover the hills with blue all a-glow, and nod their heads in the rain.
Who would not live in this land of delight where flowers are Blue and Red and White? And birds in the sky with carol and lay are heard in the glen and on mountain height? Where nature reveals a beauteous sight and blue bonnets grow by the way? Long wave the Bonny Blue Banner on high, with ever the Stars and Stripes floating by, in unity show to friend and to foe that Love, the Lone Star, supreme in the sky e’er glows with a light that never shall die, where lovely bright blue bonnets grow. Texas, my Texas, may God never cease to bless you with truth and wisdom’s increase. Your cause ever be humanity’s plea, your hope that on earth, greed and war will surcease and bluebonnets grow as a symbol of peace, in the Lone Star State by the sea. Posted by: Julia D.

What a beautiful example of what Impressionism can achieve. If I saw this in a gallery I could spend hours looking at how he applied color and used brush strokes. He really caught the look and, more importantly, feel of fresh blossoms on an early morning. The colors are soft and muted but the brilliance of the bluebonnets comes through even before the rising sun burns off the mists. It is a quiet, peaceful, restful scene. It calls for the viewer to be as quiet whether looking at the painting or the actual landscape.
The painting reminds me of seeing local bluebells (different plants but similar appearance) as they emerge near streams in the spring. We look forward to it every year. Look at some of Onderdonk's other works on his Wiki page. They have the same ability to show a landscape and the emotional sense it provides. His paintings are as good as any of the French masters of the style from a previous generation. What a shame he does so young. Posted by: JTB at September 16, 2026 09:50 AM (yTvNw) 66

The Rice Owls played in the 1954 Cotton Bowl Classic against the Crimson Tide of Alabama. The game featured one of the most famous plays in college football history when Rice's Dickey Moegle burst free on a sweep play, and on his way down the sideline, was tackled by Tommy Lewis, who had come off the Alabama sideline without his helmet to tackle Moegle. Referee Cliff Shaw saw Lewis come off the bench and gave the Owls the 95-yard touchdown.

A Cloudy Day, Bluebonnets near San Antonio, Texas 1918
Julian Onderdonk It's so calm & pretty, would definitely hang this piece. Thanks. -- Amon Carter Museum of American Art Julian Onderdonk left his hometown in 1901 to study painting in New York City. That summer, he enrolled in classes at William Merritt Chase’s art school in Shinnecock Hills, Long Island, where he developed a facility for plein-air landscapes. In 1909, he moved back to San Antonio and began to paint the natural scenery of the surrounding Hill Country region, focusing on the spring wildflower blooms. Onderdonk’s interest in the Hill Country was unconventional; most Texas landscape painters of his era favored the arid expanses of West Texas ranches. Nonetheless, Onderdonk gradually built a following, exhibiting his works both locally and in major national exhibitions. By the time of his early death at 40, he had helped usher in a new regional aesthetic that pictured Texas through the lens of contemporary impressionism rather than the rugged iconography of the so-called frontier. —Text taken from the Carter Handbook (2023) --- Oh!

Some of these reservoirs distribute water to adjacent watersheds (Dallas takes a lot of water out of East Texas). Current laws would not allow such scandalous development and the financial offsets of eliminating taxable property AND providing 3:1 offsets for reservations of virgin ecological/natural acres would make it prohibitive.

Racism in Hollywood.
Hold on tight. Sunny Hostin is playing the race card. The far-Left “View” host played it for personal reasons this time. Hostin, unbeknownst to many, is a published author. Her book series includes titles like “Summer on the Bluffs” and “Summer on Highland Beach.” Turns out at least one tome made it to the New York Times’ Bestseller list. Said list is compromised, sadly, but it’s still a feather in Hostin’s cap. You go, birthing person! That’s not enough, though. She wants to see her stories on the big screen. And she blames racism for their absence. “And the gatekeeping in Hollywood around Black and Brown creative content is insane,” she continued. “I cannot get New York Times best-selling books onto the screen to tell diverse stories to diverse communities.” Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks, Where's My Cookie? at September 16, 2026 11:09 AM (ndZc7) 222

SCOTUS Denies Stay on Ruling Blocking Trump Mail-In Ballot Restrictions: Alito and Thomas dissented: “Some of the plaintiffs lack standing, while the remainder are pursuing a claim that this Court has recently called a ‘Hail Mary pass’ that ‘rarely succeeds.’”Further, Alito all but declared j'accuse... Did the Supreme Court’s liberal justices slow-walk their dissents in litigation over President Trump’s mail-in voting order to run out the clock on its implementation for the 2026 midterms? That seems to be what Justice Samuel Alito subtly suggested in the court’s most recent ruling on the subjectAnd so on the one hand, the Leftists want to pack the court with their political allies who will subvert the Constitution and the guiding principles of American and western jurisprudence to advance their Sharia-esque goal o absolute power and control via the advancement and forcing of their preferred insane policies on our society and people. Most recently and vociferously from Mayor Buttplug, who potentially may announce a run for the presidency in 2028. And of course, if they can't achieve that goal then they are simply calling for SCOTUS and the Constitution itself to be utterly demolished, along with the Presidency, the Senate and the Electoral College. Considering the surge in popularity of the Democrat Socialites, this fringe madness could be mainstreamed faster than we imagine. Certainly if SCOTUS continues to abrogate its duty to defend the Republic and the rule of law, we are going to wake up in a nightmare. And speaking of nightmare scenarios, we have this to contend with. The basis for Muslim political donations in the United States, is preventing non-Muslims from “coalescing amongst themselves and uniting” to defend themselves. This isn’t civic participation: it’s the tribal divide and conquer politics of the origins of Islamic colonialism and imperialism. . . Muslim PACs previously claimed that they were just people representing their communities. The Fiqh system pulls back the curtain to show a central body of Islamic scholars trying to use money to control the outcome of American elections for “benefitting the Ummah” (meaning the global Muslim community’s local or foreign interests) “either in one’s own country or locality (such as countering a clearly anti-Muslim politician with an agenda of harm) or internationally.” Any politician taking money routed through this method would be acting as a puppet for an Islamic theocracy which would be using them to covertly exert its control over Americans.Yeah, that's crazy talk right there, you conspiracy nutters! So let's all lose our heads (pun intended) over this, But AI! Oh no, it's Armageddon... Have a good day.

That would mean trimming and cutting the colossal costs of gov't. That would mean they couldn't shove piles of cash to others for votes. That would mean they'd have to put the country first and themselves last. And that isn't happening. For pete's sake, we can't even get them to get off their sorry butts to secure our elections. Our federal gov't is broken and relying on those who broke it to have courage to fix it is a fool's errand. JMHO. Posted by: Lady in Black at September 16, 2026 07:53 AM (qBdHI) 56
In 1981 or 2 I was paying about $1.50 per gallon for premium gas at Amoco in SE Michigan. Gemini says that the equivilent today would be about $5.50 per gallon. So, I'm not sure how to react to today's prices.

Regarding fuel prices...
It occurs to me that if there wasn't the current conflict with Iran, the antagonistic mullahs could have done what they're doing now, and it would have the same effect. People who hate Trump will blame him regardless. If there's one thing that slightly bugs me, it was Trump's declarations about "a deal" multiple times with little to show for it.

>>He sucks and is not a musician or a vocalist.
But he does not deserve this Maoist treatment. - - - - Yeah, kinda indifferent on his music but this pairing was a set-up. So many entertainers are happy to get political, with an audience who love that vibe, so why would you then instead pair Macklemore with a guy whose audience loves bland, pop love songs and NO politics? It's like the trans activist showing up on the online knitting forum and insisting all knitters pledge to support trans kids, or the immigrant author declaring the romance novels are "too white" and stirring up a social media mob to harass success authors to be more "inclusive." It's the same game, over and over again. This time it's about "zionist censorship," but last year it was about "trans erasure," and a few years before that it was about [pick your media format] being "too white." Instead of taking the activist bait, shut down the game. I don't have to debate your pet politics to enjoy music, and the singers sure as heck aren't required to take your political purity test.

Posted by: Lady in Black at September 16, 2026 07:53 AM (qBdHI) Further, while people support balancing the budget, doing so would either require massive tax increases, supported by the people who currently pay nothing in taxes, or massive cuts to social spending, supported by some of the people who do pay taxes, no majority supports any of the approaches. Confiscatory taxes come closest, mostly because people foolishly believe that government wouldn't continue spending $1.50 for every dollar that comes in.

119 RE the jump in gas... Apparently the Saudis went to PDTS to ask for help to fight the Houthis but got shot down, so the Saudis then went to the UK/EU next and threatened to shut off oil to the UK if the UK/EU wont participate.

Prior to becoming PM of Canada, Mark Carney was the Governor of the Bank of England. Canada is a Commonwealth country that has always had more historical and cultural ties to the UK than it does to the US.
I doubt Carney's decision to nuke the US trade deal was a spur of the moment thing and I don't think closer ties with the EU is something that just happened today. Old alliances, many that didn't have our best interests at heart but were designed for the betterment of the globalist cabal, are being shredded and a new order is being established. Trump's pivot away from Europe and toward the western hemisphere is real. Posted by: JackStraw at September 16, 2026 08:24 AM (viF8m) 164
Keep the 19th Amendment. For Now. Think Constitution 2.0 and what is needed.
Understand this. Constitutions are social contracts, maybe a mission statement, nothing more. They are only as good as those who are entrusted to keeping them. The former United States is no longer anything approaching a monoculture, that means a Mission Statement is absolutely impossible. We also have a penchant for electing trustees who are as wicked and depraved as ourselves. Then there is the sport of pilpul where no matter what document, no body of laws, no gentlemen's agreement—some asshole is going to wrest whatever agreement was in place to advance their own interests. The Constitution was made for a self-regulating, religious people and is totally unsuitable for any other. Posted by: Community Notes at September 16, 2026 08:25 AM (a3CJ+) 165

Of course! From JJ's link:
. . .Anthropic’s CEO Dario Amodei, who says he has found an outside team that can regulate AI and make sure it doesn’t destroy the world. . . METR spun off from an Effective Altruism-aligned tech incubator called Alignment Research Center (ARC), which is headed by AI researcher Paul Christiano. He was Amodei’s housemate, coworker and research collaborator in the 2010s when they were both at OpenAI — Anthropic’s biggest rival. One staffer on METR is Ajeya Cotra, who is married to Christiano and has been a major organizer in the EA world. The founder and CEO of the group is Beth Barnes, who was hired by Christiano and was involved in the EA movement at college. Chief scientist Hjalmar Wijk and staffers Megan Kinniment and Pip Arnott all came from the same research cluster at the University of Oxford — a major feeder for EA. This explains so much! He doesn't want the US government oversight, he wants his own friend's globalist, unaccountable to any government organization to oversee it. You really should check out the pictures of these METR people. This is a nightmare. Posted by: Lizzy at September 16, 2026 08:29 AM (rOKnE) 176

Pretty sure the point was to force all in attendance at the Grammies to participate in a gay wedding - making a music awards ceremony into an LGBTQ event. There were no doubt Country and Gospel singers present who did not want to be part of that, and he was daring them to walk out and then face harassment for being anti-LGBTQ.

So suddenly the Saudi’s have been called out with their proverbial pants around their ankles, the Mecca Accords are revealed as a ridiculous farce, and Trump is kicking back in an easy chair, whistling Dixie and saying “just think how different things could be if you’d taken my advice.” The economic damage to Europe and China, and the exposure of Europe’s total military ineptitude is just icing on the cake.

Every single person who voted against this or voted present is a depraved immoral coward (Shows clip of vote count on motion to table Greene's impeachment resolution. What a retard lol) If we impeach Trump again, I hope it's such a solid case even republicans have to vote for it. Otherwise I say Dems need to focus on keeping the county going until after the midterms. Sure its pointless but there really isn't a reason to vote against either... how can we be sure they won't also try to block investigations? Every act of resistance shows that resistance is possible and encourages others to resist. It forces collective attention onto Trump’s many impeachable offences and away from whatever agenda he wants publicised. It reminds everyone what the standard expected of presidents is and how far Trump has failed to meet it. It sends a message to foreign allies that there are parts of the system still working and that America is not going to simply acquiesce to Trump’s depredations. And because, as Zapata once said, it is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

A big reason the Russia collusion farce was able to get traction for so long is the left's control of social media. The already own the regular media and without social media we had no voice.
The AI panic is a similar scam that the media has been pushing. And it's dying in real time because people are taking it apart on social media, mainly X, the very place that was ground zero for social media censorship. The same people are trying to do the same thing with AI. Put government sanctioned, left leaning censors in charge. They get the censorship they want and government cover which doesn't hurt when they are trying to get trillion dollar IPOs.

For a while there, especially when the Space X IPO had mixed reactions, there was this trial balloon to have the US tax payers "invest" in this AI money printing juggernaut. And by "invest", corrupt government officials would likely create tranches where they and their cronies fully receive the benefits of the Cantillion Effect, and walk off with billions reaped off the forced "government partnership" (aka tax dollar purchase) of a dog stock as AI vulture capitalists realize that all of the promise of AI profits has already been realized in terms of its perceived value.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis just DROPPED this message to every American and it's SPOT ON: "If there are things you wish the Republicans would've done? Well, they're DEFINITELY not gonna get done if you put the DSA IN CHARGE. In fact, EVERYTHING would be dead on arrival, and they'd spend the last 2 years of President Trumps' presidency going after him and his administration." "That's ALL they'll do. They will not do a SINGLE thing that will benefit the American people." This is why it's NEVER the correct alternative to elect country-destroyers just because we want more done by the GOP I myself WISH the SAVE America Act were passed, but why would I elect the party of VOTER FRAUD, who would never even CONSIDER proof of citizenship and voter ID?

Kevin Bass, who made a name for himself criticizing the government’s response to COVID, has laid out what he says are “fourteen moves in eight days” to “create hysteria to manipulate Congress into regulating AI.”
He goes on to say that “almost everyone involved is affiliated with Coefficient, Open Philanthropy, Anthropic, and/or OpenAI — all of who serve to benefit financially from creating regulation.” (Anthropic and OpenAI have more than doubled their lobbying spending in the first half of this year. Anthropic spent nearly $2 million in Q2 alone.) But why would AI companies want the federal government to step in and regulate their industry? Because, as is the case with all government regulations, it’s the best way to block new entrants into a market. Big companies can hire lobbyists to make sure the rules are crafted to their liking, and they can easily absorb the costs of all the mandates. The little guys get shut out.

My take on AI:
The tech companies are convinced this is like the early years of the internet and they all want to become Amazon/Google (including, amusingly, Amazon and Google) They are overspending and their roll outs are rushed but from a business perspective there is a demand for AI based tooling and plenty of $$$ to be made especially by companies that get an early presence in the market.

Any industry that is being essentially run by government instantly becomes significantly more valuable, particularly a new industry that is speculative. Government oversight means safety and safety means value. Trillions of value. And in return the masters of the AI universe agree to be tools of the government and create their products to serve the government's wishes.

On Monday, the New York State Board of Regents directed the state Department of Education to make all Regents exams optional and to develop alternative graduation requirements. Board of Regents member Felicia Thomas-Williams has said she's heard some troubling things about the board "dumbing down" the state's graduation requirements, but she insists that scrapping the exams does the opposite and allows students to showcase their strengths. "You don't assess a fish on climbing a tree because fish can't climb trees," she explained.

What are we doing? Posted by: Sponge - F*ck Cancer at September 16, 2026 09:10 AM (ccf/V) In sum, the answer is because there are no easy fixes, and everything you list takes years of hard choices, hard work, and clear thinking policy to achieve. The world energy situation is being massively transformed - few understand what a major impact that the Venezuelan agreement will have - but big moved in energy infrastructure always take 2 to 5 years to show up in public perception. No way around that. One of the biggest reasons we’re in such a mess in so many areas is that for at least 50 years, those in power have been making decisions based on maximizing short term results while ignoring long term consequences. Well the long term is now here, and it’s not going to be fixed by any more short term tinkering. Posted by: Tom Servo at September 16, 2026 09:20 AM (tOqvK) 337

If you're old enough to remember, under the first two years of Reaganomics the economy didn't improve that much. Because digging out from Carter wasn't going to happen overnight. And there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth. And they we had years of a booming economy because turning around the economy and dealing with shit that should have been dealt with years ago instead of trying to bribe terrorists and kicking the can down the road takes time. The economy is definitely better under Trump. Manufacturing is returning to the US, Iran is on the ropes and it's just a matter of time. And yea, getting rid of illegal and sealing the border is kind of a big deal. Have a little faith. Posted by: JackStraw at September 16, 2026 09:26 AM (viF8m) 359

Wondering where Nancy Pelosi has been, especially as she apparently still considers She continues to treat national midterms as "her race," fundraising heavily to ensure Democrats take back the House majority before she exits. Punchbowl News, Tech, 'Obama, Pelosi, Harris face progressive AI money backlash' Progressives are attacking top Democratic figures for backing an AI initiative created by one of the founding donors of a super PAC, Leading the Future, closely tied to the industry. In part, "Former President Barack Obama, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, former Vice President Kamala Harris and Democratic nominee for California governor Xavier Becerra all applauded venture capitalist Ron Conway’s Project Blueprint. The initiative aims to rebuild bridges between the tech industry and the Democratic Party. But progressive advocates interested in AI regulation didn’t like that look."

Idiots....... Posted by: Sponge - F*ck Cancer at September 16, 2026 09:29 AM (ccf/V) Part of it is also: social media. It convinces you that all women are not only doing the shit you know about- but worse shit. Testimonials. Tiktok examples. etc etc. The thing is, it is easy for a weak mind to get drawn in to all of it. To think that all women are that way, so I got a hot one and I can... exert some control over this. But dude (and I do not mean, you, Sponge) the reason you keep running into whores is because you are attracted to whores. They are attracted to you because, whore. This is not all women. This is just the subset you see. Posted by: Aetius451AD at September 16, 2026 09:33 AM (Y/06r) 383
The media are in quite a snit Tuesday afternoon after learning that Mike Rogers, the Republican candidate for Michigan's open U.S. Senate seat, did something that more GOP candidates should think about doing: he said "hard pass" to a debate with Democrat Abdul El-Sayed because the moderator is a leftist hack.
And Rogers has the receipts to prove it. The Republican announced he will not participate in Tuesday night's FOX 2 Detroit debate, with his campaign pointing the finger squarely at moderator Roop Raj and what it describes as Raj's demonstrated history of “bias and favoritism” toward El-Sayed.

The biggest reason for my being a Trumpster is that he's our first national figure since Ross Perot who gives a rat's ass about our working class.

In sum, the answer is because there are no easy fixes, and everything you list takes years of hard choices, hard work, and clear thinking policy to achieve. The world energy situation is being massively transformed - few understand what a major impact that the Venezuelan agreement will have - but big moved in energy infrastructure always take 2 to 5 years to show up in public perception. No way around that.
One of the biggest reasons we’re in such a mess in so many areas is that for at least 50 years, those in power have been making decisions based on maximizing short term results while ignoring long term consequences. Well the long term is now here, and it’s not going to be fixed by any more short term tinkering.

Sierra Times, 'California Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi Joins Democratic Women's Caucus In Slamming Trump’s Health and Human Services (HHS) For Plan To Gut Head Start' Published and Last Updated: Wednesday, 16 September 2026 It seems, in part, they sent "a letter to Health and Human Services (HHS) demanding HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. withdraw their proposed rule to gut 90% of Head Start Program Performance Standards (HSPPS) that would increase costs for families and eliminate educational resources women and families rely on. The letter was signed by 87 House Democrats." Locally, all I saw in the past was a crappy babysitting program, allowing a lot of 'parents' free time. And, of course, Nancy is still endorsing & campaigning for Connie Chan - already securing her a spot in the upcoming November general election runoff in California - and blocking State Senator Scott Wiener. Don't forget her, still the lead. Good day. 🤗 Posted by: L - No nic... at September 16, 2026 09:56 AM (NFX2v) 395

Regarding AI/data centers and electrical usage, the problem is obvious as is the solution: Mandate that the new data centers produce more electricity than they consume and feed the excess electricity to the grid for a nominal fee. Methane fired generation makes the most sense to me for both cost, ease of construction and least importantly pollution concerns.

Oxford Essential Quotations
Sadi ca. 1213 Persian poet I never complained at the vicissitudes of fortune, nor murmured at the ordinances of Heaven, excepting once, when my feet were bare, and I had not the means of procuring myself shoes. I entered the great mosque at Cufah with a heavy heart when I beheld a man who had no feet. I offered up praise and thanksgiving to God for his bounty, and bore with patience the want of shoes. usually quoted as ‘I cried because I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet’ The Rose Garden (125 Posted by: m at September 16, 2026 04:50 AM (odBC9) 12

"Ukrainians are now stocking up on semiautomatic shotguns to take out Russian drones"

Just read an article at the Epoch Times about the nation of Palau and the problem they are having with West Taiwan. When the Palauan President was discussing their country's claim to a continental shelf, the Chinese diplomat actually said "Palau was a small country that shouldn’t have so much ocean."

Here's a Christian twist on the sentiment:
There is a 19th-century tradition tracing to Bradford the idiomatic "There but for the grace of God go I" as an expression of humility and reliance on God's grace rather than his own morality. The editor of The Writings of John Bradford, Aubrey Townsend, notes this in his preface: The familiar story, that, on seeing evil-doers taken to the place of execution, he was wont to exclaim, "But for the grace of God there goes John Bradford", is a universal tradition which has overcome the lapse of time.

Does he walk away feeling better about himself and ignore the other guy completely, or does he realize his own problems are trivial and do something tangible to help the other guy? Obviously the latter is probably the point of the story. But... you know... i'm just a rotten bastard who assumes everything else is also rotten. So pay me no mind.

I dimly recall a Batman comic of the early Sixties, or perhaps a Fifties reprint, in which a gigantic flying robot called "Magog" is threatening Gotham City. Or maybe there were two of them, a Gog and a Magog. Despite his rep as Sherlock Holmes in a cape and mask, Batman often got up to some outlandish science-fictional escapades.

Earlier commenter said the the entire ME is turning on us. I replied that basically that's not present tense. They Muslims have been against us since Mohammed wrote down his treatise of war, the Koran, around 600 BC. My follow up means it's time to take off the gloves and wage total war on Islam. Crusades III. The Return of the Templar. And so on. The bible references are from Revelations, but I guess you knew that. To "take it outside" means to fight, but I guess you know that too.

My husbands headstone is finally done and will be placed today. My name is on it as well with date of death to be filled in later. It will be a bit unnerving to see my name on a headstone..........

Many a pulpit has warned of Gog and Magog as the coming of the apocalypse and the end of time.
Those crazy Dispensationalists... According to the Bible, not John Hagee: Magog was one of the seven sons of Japeth; Japeth was one of three of Noah's sons. Gog is a descendant of the Magog tribe. Josephus and other scholars place the Magog tribe descendants with the Scythian people north of the Black Sea. Pretty sure that the audience Ezekiel was writing to didn't require Bible Codes to decipher the prophecy's meaning. Apparently the people of Magog were notoriously rebellious to God because historic Jewish interpretations and Christian amillennial reading of this as a generic collective of terrifying enemies of God as the nomadic horse people of the north who had a reputation of appearing suddenly and disappearing suddenly in the form of terrifying invasions. So Ezekiel's imagery was probably to set this idea into his audience's mind and heart. Take it from there if you wish to compare to Rev 20 where the demonic forces that the Apostles chained during their ministry are release for a short time just before The End Posted by: Community Notes at September 16, 2026 07:07 AM (NzX/y) 134
Then sit down with your kids and tell them who those people are. Give your kids some family history and plant some roots. My parents did it, and even if I'd never them, they became part of my life's story.

Understood. The American Religion has largely replaced Christianity and has taken the name and wearing Christianity's reputation as a skin suit. It isn't internal contradictions you are witnessing, its downright rejection, on their part to convey the Truth's of Scripture because the Bible's doctrines conflict greatly with what Americans want their god to be. e.g. Seeker Sensitive is antithetical to Doctrines of Grace.

I don't know bro. The Amazing Grace Baptist Church, for all it's flaws, does it's very best to read, understand, and follow the Bible. You can call them stupid if you want, but Bible Believers, they certainly are, even if the misunderstand it.
I reject the Bible as anything super literal. But, for the most part, I like the values and think they are good for people.

Trump-appointed FBI Director Kash Patel echoed Trump's recent sentiments on Flock cameras and defended the FBI's access to and use of the cameras, telling the Senate Judiciary Committee he believes Flock license-plate cameras are not mass surveillance because they are in public places, so people should not expect privacy there. He also argued the FBI does not get constant access to the data and only asks for information after it already has a lead, such as a photo of a car. However, in Carpenter v. United States, the Supreme Court said people have a privacy right in the record of the whole of their movements, even if each trip is on a public road. A large camera network that stores old license-plate hits can show where a person has been for days or weeks, including which doctors they visit, which protests they may attend, whether they go to gun stores or visit gun ranges for target practice, and much more. That kind of stored travel history is closer to the cell-phone location records the Court said generally need a warrant.Kash Patel has his moments where he shines - like during recent exchanges with members of Congress. But this is a reprehensible take on his part. We really have nobody on our side, do we? ----- Those of you who have traveled in mountainous areas have probably seen runaway truck ramps on the side of the road. But have you ever actually seen anyone use one? Colorado troopers share video of semi truck using runaway ramp on I-70 ![]() The Colorado State Patrol (CSP) shared a recently-captured video of a runaway semi truck using an escape ramp along I-70. CSP said that the video was captured a few days ago on westbound I-70 coming down Eisenhower Pass. Troopers shared the video to encourage drivers to use the ramps if necessary and to educate motorists on how to respond if they see a commercial vehicle that needs to use a ramp due to brake failure. “If you are driving down the road and observe a runaway semi-truck coming towards you in your rearview mirrors, stay calm and attempt to merge to the left, as all runaway truck ramps in Colorado are on the right shoulder. This will allow the truck to safely enter the ramp without colliding with anyone,” CSP said.Video at the link ----- I guess it's a Star Trek thread now Physicist proves famous ‘Star Trek’ combat strategy works The most impressive science fiction stories emphasize “science” over spectacle. The Star Trek franchise has featured plenty of examples since the original series premiered 60 years ago this month, but one of its most famous sci-fi moments may prove even more fascinating than fans realized. At Brazil’s Federal University of ABC, physicist Níckolas de Aguiar Alves determined that an early episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation demonstrates an aspect to the theory of relativity even better than its creators likely anticipated. Season One’s ninth episode, “The Battle,” introduces a bit of backstory to Jean-Luc Picard’s illustrious career in the Federation. Years before he became captain of the USS Enterprise, Picard oversaw a ship called the Stargazer when it came under fire from an unknown assailant. Picard needed to navigate closer to the mystery attacker before responding, but the Enterprise’s shields were down. The captain then quickly improvised what later became known as the “Picard Maneuver.” He ordered his crew to rush their foe at warp speed (faster than the speed of light) then quickly halt and begin firing. Relativistic physics dictated that if Stargazer traveled faster than visible light, it would technically generate two images of the ship from their attacker’s point of view—one Stargazer at the location just prior to warp speed, then a Stargazer where it halted. The operation was risky, but it gave Picard and his crew a 50/50 chance that the enemy would continue firing on an afterimage of Stargazer. *** In actuality, Picard’s Maneuver wouldn’t result in two Stargazer ships; it would make three of them. This is because Picard’s crew didn’t travel at a constant speed during the gambit–they first sped up, then stopped closer to their opponent. That means Stargazer technically accelerated not once, but twice. This makes all the difference.This mean something to you, Trekkies? ----- Some of you should get outside tonight How to Watch the Northern Lights from 12 States Tonight Two fast-moving streams of solar wind, along with up to two passing bursts of charged particles from the sun, could make the northern lights visible late on Tuesday, Sept. 15, into early Wednesday, Sept. 16. *** Look north after dark on Tuesday, Sept. 15, and keep an eye on the sky through the pre-dawn hours on Wednesday, Sept. 16.

No, but I've seen a truck at the end of one when I was traveling down a mountainside once.

Posted by: Oddbob at September 15, 2026 10:15 PM (vTZFs) Well, first, the driver changes his shorts . . . Then someone comes out and fixes the brakes, then tows the truck back onto the highway. The ramps typically are covered with a deep layer of gravel, so the truck is likely to sink into the gravel rather than roll backwards. Posted by: a.moron at September 15, 2026 10:19 PM (X5Jzz) 41

**** Pull the air brake. Just like you would when idling the truck while parked. Also, the truck goes up the ramp because of speed and momentum. Once it stops, the wheels are buried in sand and gravel. A tow truck is necessary to get the truck and trailer out of the ramp. Posted by: clarence at September 15, 2026 10:21 PM (MbV1j) 46

Trump-appointed FBI Director Kash Patel echoed Trump's recent sentiments on Flock cameras and defended the FBI's access to and use of the cameras, telling the Senate Judiciary Committee he believes Flock license-plate cameras are not mass surveillance because they are in public places, so people should not expect privacy there.

Here's a fun Flock Fact...
Over 80% of the searches done on any given municipalities Flock system are done from other cities. With no reason given. Which answers a question I've had for a while... that being can city A search city B's flock data even if they've got no apparent reason. The answer is.... yes. This will only meet some legal challenges if and when our political betters are inconvenienced by a warrantless search of their comings and going.

Biggest issue in Truck is illegal illiterates.
OTR driving is essentially slave labor given the whole trucking industry. If you are cool with living in a 7x7 box for 23 hours of the day, every day, and get rewarded with a net of $3-$5 per hour, and have massive debt due to the tractor lease/payments and maintenance, and insurance. Then sure. Recruiters have to hunt around homeless encampments, finding veterans with low skills, construction workers between jobs, etc. So the field is populated with low-lifes who are in financial bondage to the trucking school. I can't think of a solution. You either get cartels and Teamsters holding the economy hostage for high wages (pre-Carter's deregulation in 1980) or get the foreigners who are cool with a pittance in pay.

The OK highway patrol used to monitor traffic from small aircraft timing cars (any car they wished) between painted marks on the road. If they detected a speeding violation, the pilot/trooper had to land the plane, get to wherever another trooper had pulled you over and write the ticket as the "observing" official. They seemed to have stopped several years ago, probably due to the costs. So if some officer looks at flock info, discovers a crime, does he/she come to visit and arrest you?

Posted by: Semi-Literate Thug at September 15, 2026 10:29 PM (VWtfl) Probably designed to drain well, so there's no standing water.

Colorado has launched an automated speed camera program on a stretch of I-25, where cameras calculate average speed versus a single instant reading.
The cameras make radar detectors and alerts from apps such as Waze obsolete, but they've greatly reduced excessive speeds in high-risk areas like work zones. Violators face a $75 fine mailed to their registered address, with no points added to their license; vehicles without license plates can evade fines.

-- The Saudi- spokesperson, Turki al-Maliki, said Royal Saudi Air Defence Forces intercepted the hostile drone before it entered the restricted airspace [you know that's lie, they can't fly their planes for sh*t] --- The Houthis have previously denied targeting Mecca, saying that they do not target holy sites. --- [Houthis have previouly said that if Saudis would lift the siege and embargo they would stop fighting] **don't know enough about the original conflict to say** Posted by: Braenyard - some Absent Friends are more equal than others _ at September 15, 2026 11:01 PM (vOxCS) 134
131 Colorado has launched an automated speed camera program on a stretch of I-25, where cameras calculate average speed versus a single instant reading.
The cameras make radar detectors and alerts from apps such as Waze obsolete, but they've greatly reduced excessive speeds in high-risk areas like work zones. Violators face a $75 fine mailed to their registered address, with no points added to their license; vehicles without license plates can evade fines.

114 The OK highway patrol used to monitor traffic from small aircraft timing cars (any car they wished) between painted marks on the road. If they detected a speeding violation, the pilot/trooper had to land the plane, get to wherever another trooper had pulled you over and write the ticket as the "observing" official. They seemed to have stopped several years ago, probably due to the costs. So if some officer looks at flock info, discovers a crime, does he/she come to visit and arrest you? Posted by: LRob in OK at September 15, 2026 10:52 PM -------- I never heard of the plane having to land. In Maryland, in 1992, it was certainly not so.

Flock cameras are partially down the "slippery slope." And, their operation is in the hands of a people that I partially trust. Everyday I see examples of people using poor judgement in law enforcement. We just had four years of the entire Federal apparatus being misused and abused. And, I am suppose to trust them to act appropriately.
Flock cameras already have facial reconition software that can be added rather easily. What is on the streets today is the "skeleton" of what is available. Patel said they only ask for information when they have a lead. Now, THAT right there is bullshit. Flock cameras are likely used more often as a "fishing expedition." They'll tell you that they don't store data. Only last week one of the ONT showed that Flock actually stores it and uses it for marketing. So that's a lie by the entity I'm supposed to trust. Right not these flock cameras are supposedly only pointed at the roadway. Do you believe that? How long until they are on sidewalks with the facial recognition software up and running?

New Chinese surveillance leaves foreigners nowhere to hide
https://t.co/RpO3X0OW6h ...This system no longer relies solely on police cameras on street corners; it accurately records the specific train carriage and seat number a target occupies when arriving from Beijing or Shanghai, for example. It even synchronizes photos taken by facial-recognition ticket gates at local ski resorts directly into its tracking mechanism. The movements of the researcher's acquaintances who recently skied in Zhangjiakou were precisely flagged and mapped out with detailed trajectories in the system. "The idea is simply to process as much data as possible from as many sensors as possible in real time," the researcher noted. The system logs daily behaviors like gasoline consumption, regular shopping locations and whether an individual frequently visits "petition areas."

Posted by: AnnaS at September 15, 2026 11:55 PM (WdMlw) I have had no fewer than five Talarico ads today. They are hosing down the internet with ads and paid content. These are the people that dropped $2 Billion backing Kamala. The weirdest thing is the first ad claimed Talarico's opponents had spent $20 million on ads and could I just spare five or ten dollars. Soon the ads said similar, but not identical pitches but it was $15 million. An hour ago it's $10 million. I have no clue why this happened, but it feels like someone is over thinking things. Or they tasked AI to target the ads. /shrug Posted by: Bilwis - Wizard of Clwyd at September 16, 2026 12:18 AM (r7+Q7) 231

Note that cellphone "tracking" is a necessary function for a cellphone to work. The system cannot direct a call to you, unless it knows which cell tower is within range of your device. If your device pings two or more cell towers, they could triangulate your location, to what? Maybe a few yards. But that would require action on the part of somebody; maybe a warrant. And all the trackers and location info built into apps? All avoidable. Shitcan the apps. Shitcan Google. Shitcan IOS. And GPS receivers are a one-way street. They receive signals from the constellation of GPS satellites. They cannot transmit back, and the GPS satellites are deaf to them, too. If GPS had 2-way capability, we'd have had Starlink before Starlink.

Well, I got mostly done with the welding on the fuel tank for the dune buggy. Welded the filler neck on the front middle, then spent several hours with the acetylene torch and brazing rod chasing leaks, and sealing them up. Use the blower on the shop vac to pressurize the tank. Spray welds with soapy water. Mark locations of bubble. Apply brass. Check again. Some sites were stubborn, and required repeated visits. I think I got them all. Painted the tank with POR-15, which also is an effective sealant against gasoline.

Most of which I knocked loose by dumping a handful of bolts in the tank, and shaking it. A light coating of rust remains. Really not bad at all.

We were told to stay away from their house, and I got in BIG trouble for drawing a chalk hop-scotch on "their" sidewalk.

One of the residents at hubby's nursing home was wearing a t-shirt that read: "In dog years, I'm dead" over a cartoon drawing of a doggy skeleton. LOL. Posted by: JQ at September 16, 2026 01:39 AM That's funny. I'm good. Fending off a cat invasion. Snowflake is sleeping upstairs and I'm feeding her outdoor mom Starry while my friends are away. But today two other neighbourhood cats I've seen around were in the yard at the same time. Three in the driveway at the same time. It looked like a Mexican standoff. Bedtime. All the best. To all of you. Posted by: Stateless - Ralphy 105 years old - puppy at heart at September 16, 2026 01:45 AM (Sco7b) Posted by: four seasons at September 16, 2026 01:45 AM (/QHx4) 290

Hi four seasons and JQ, I hope that all is well with you and yours. It is brisk out here tonight and the house is cool. I may have to crank up the furnace to take the chill out in the morning.

Good news for newbie guitar players: Guitar Center is revamping its in-house Mitchell line of entry-level guitars to include extensive setup of the acoustics. Even if you're almost 29, you may still be wanting to learn guitar; and while there are good arguments to start with an electric, most people start on an acoustic.
They're also ditching their Mitchell electrics entirely, but the brands they carry make plenty of good, affordable electric guitars already. Fender's Squier label, Gibson's Epiphone label, Ibanez, and others make cheap import guitars with a certain minimal level of QC to preserve brand value. But acoustics are troublesome to get set up with low action for high playability, and manufacturers have less incentive and opportunity than GC, which also hosts lessons and wants to convert newbies to lifetime customers. Phillip McKnight - Guitar Center Is Betting Sweetwater Won't Do This https://youtu.be/xRdePQJqXCA And here is a Guitar Center link, filtered and sorted to show Mitchell acoustics and acoustic-electrics, newest first (since my understanding is that those are the ones with the new in-house setup): https://tinyurl.com/5ejbpc6b Posted by: SciVo at September 16, 2026 01:59 AM (ke3zm) 300

I have to laugh. Just saw an ad against Prop 39 here in Kali...it starts that it's supported by the evil Trump, and that it'll make voting so much harder!
Really? Here's what Wikipedia has to say: "The initiative would amend the state constitution to require the use of a government-issued ID for in-person voting, as well as the last four digits of a unique government-issued ID number when casting a mail-in ballot. The amendment would also require the state of California to provide free voter ID cards that can be used to cast a ballot, and would enforce the maintenance of accurate voter registration lists by the secretary of state and election officials.

This afternoon, I stumbled across something fascinating. The "chain fountain effect" also called the Mould effect, after the (re)discoverer, Steve Mould, who stumbled onto it 10-15 years ago. Here's his first video showing this crazy looking effect: https://t.ly/XTNN1 This is an example of some relatively simple mechanics/physics that hadn't been analyzed. Something you'd think would be "easy" but is not. Why does that chain kick itself up in that rising arc? A lot of analysis and arguments followed, and you can find a lot of it on his channel. Apparently this effect was known at least back in the late 1800's as a crazy parlor trick, but it languished until Mould stumbled onto it again....

That chain fountain was studied in depth by a couple of Cambridge physicists and they explained the upward kick force as a reaction force. But there were other forces apparently at work as well, and Mould and someone else got into a friendly dispute over this. Lots of variations showing different crazy effects. Steve had a theory, but to test it properly required zero-g. Observe chain behavior under certain conditions in free-fall. Astronaut Don Pettit did it. He's a sucker for "nerd sniping" (a term I just learned today as well): https://t.ly/FaXAe Mould's theory was correct.

____________________ That's taking liberties with what might or might not be the truth. They might not be kind at all. Perhaps they were more interested in keeping the rotting corpse of a horse out of their swimming area. Maybe they didn't want to deal with a revenge driven mare. Horses are nasty assholes most of the time regardless of what you see on TV. They kick, bite, shit and eat. Sometimes they don't mind if you sit on them, but you have to break their spirit to do so. And, anyone telling you otherwise is full of excrement.

They've got the gravitational field of the earth mapped out to incredible precision now. Another one you might be interested in was Gravity Probe B, designed to test some General relativistic effects, geodetic precession and frame-dragging precession (gravitomagnetic or Lense-Thirring precession). Way too complex to describe with a simple post here, but look that up if interested. As part of that, they machined some of the most precise spheres ever made.

🚨HUGE BREAKING UPDATE - 🚨The holdout juror broke his silence by speaking with an INDEPENDENT JOURNALIST, Fugitive TV Podcast, this evening! 👏👏👏 HERE IS A FULL DETAILED WRITE-UP.
The holdout juror is NOT an immigrant. According to marriage and divorce records, he married a Haitian immigrant. She was illegal. He did not know this when he married her. He did not show his face. He is keeping to himself since his name was doxxed on X. His life has been threatened, and people have stalked his house. NBC Boston did not give you the full story. Michael, the juror, is now divorced. He filed for divorce first. The marriage was fraudulent because she was not a citizen. When he did this, everything hit the fan. She didn’t want a divorce. His ex-wife filed a counterclaim a couple of months later. He was denied his divorce petition because she was not an American citizen. The incident with the nephew — according to the juror, there is a lot of information that many do not know. For example, the nephew is 6-foot-2, and Michael is only 5-foot-7. This obviously does not give anyone the right to hit anyone. But I think it is safe to say that we do not know all of the facts of the matter.

This obviously does not give anyone the right to hit anyone. But I think it is safe to say that we do not know all of the facts of the matter. Michael stated the truth will come out.
None of this matters when it comes to what happened in the courtroom. He filled out his paperwork appropriately. He did not lie on his paperwork. He was asked if he had ever been arrested, and he checked the box “yes” and afterward had to describe what happened. He even took the stand, and the prosecutor asked him questions. He was questioned about his past arrest. He was then selected. I would like to make it very clear that this is something that happens with all of the potential jurors present. Which means that the jurors who have already been interviewed could have said this at any point, but they chose to keep that information from the public. Michael told Fugitive TV that from day one, eight of the jurors automatically wanted to go for not guilty. Continued Posted by: rickb223 at September 15, 2026 08:55 PM (N1hEM) 67
Another cool one is LISA, schedule to launch in 2035. This a gravitational wave detector of a quite crazy idea. Three spacecraft will be launched into heliocentric orbits. They will maintain a triangle with precise station keeping. The orbits to do this are quite fascinating. Anyway, that will detect very low frequency gravitational waves. In principle, we can "see" much further back in time with this than with light. In theory. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at September 15, 2026 08:55 PM (w6EFb) 68
At the very end, it was him and another juror. She was also voting guilty. At the last minute, she caved. He said he knew she was guilty based on the EVIDENCE.
He was open about what he believed and what he said. He said the other jurors are telling half-truths or just outright lies. He’s never been convicted of a crime. His past should not matter. He said that the entire time, his ex-wife was just trying to get status and citizenship to live in the U.S. Michael said that the report on him that went viral, where they said they spoke with his family members, did not report exactly what was actually said. He said that the family members they spoke to were likely family members of his ex-wife, and he does not even speak with them. Therefore, they cannot know what actually happened in the jury room. Who DID NBC Boston speak with? According to Michael, it was not one of his own family members. Michael stated that he believes he’s being targeted because he is a Republican - a Black Republican with conservative values. He believes that he was on a juror panel with a large number of Democratic voters. And he knows exactly what’s happening right now, and I think that you all do as well.

My wife's aunt and uncle lived like that well into the 20th century. No running water, no electricity. Wood stove for cooking and heat. Raised cows, chickens and pigs. Garden too. Canned whatever they needed for winter. They knew every plant and what it was, or wasn't good for.

Two of his "prosecutors" have been disbarred over their flagrant crimes before the court-- all to support meritless appeals so that guilty murders could go free. Krasner is a full supporter of the left's "decarceration" agenda and believes no one should be in prison -- not rapists, not killers, not child sex abusers -- and he's not shy about saying so and he's not shy about putting his communist believes into practice.Krasner's main technique of freeing killers is lying about the DAs who secured the conviction withholding evidence from the killer. He simply makes these "Brady violations" up. And for a long time, no one challenged him on his lies.
Now a federal judge says that Larry Krasner might face criminal perjury charges. Apparently one of his lawyers began to get very worried about Krasner's perjuries and obstructions, and suggested it was time to turn over the case to the state attorney's general's office so that an unbiased office could handle the case. Krasner ordered him to not talk to anyone about the corrupt workings of his communist office. A federal judge believes DA Larry Krasner may have broken the law, and he referred the case to the U.S. Attorney's Office U.S. District Judge Paul S. Diamond said he believed Krasner and one of his top supervisors, Matthew Stiegler, may have committed perjury, conspiracy, or obstruction of justice. A federal judge said Tuesday that District Attorney Larry Krasner may have broken the law while overseeing a contentious post-conviction case, and he said he referred the matter to the U.S. Attorney's Office to investigate whether Krasner should be charged with crimes including conspiracy or obstruction of justice. U.S. District Judge Paul S. Diamond made those stunning statements in a memorandum in which he also ruled that Krasner and one of his top supervisors, Matthew Stiegler, could no longer participate in the case -- a matter in which a man is seeking to have his murder conviction overturned. Diamond wrote that over the last several months, as he conducted hearings to learn more about how attorneys in the district attorney's office handled that case, testimony from some of Krasner's staffers revealed actions by Krasner and Stiegler that Diamond called "troubling," "disturbing" -- and potentially illegal. ... Those actions, he wrote, included pressuring other staffers to take steps to protect Stiegler and blame one of his subordinates, urging staffers to lie to Diamond in court, and threatening "consequences" for those who did not follow Krasner's orders. "I have thus reluctantly concluded that Philadelphia's highest law enforcement official and one of his top assistants may have violated the law," Diamond wrote. "In these circumstances, with the issuance of this Memorandum, I refer the DAO, Mr. Krasner, and Stiegler to this District's United States Attorney's Office for investigation and other appropriate action." ... [I]n recent months, the case has led to a series of unusual revelations about the inner workings of the district attorney's office as various lawyers have worked on aspects of the case. And it comes as Krasner's office has faced increasing scrutiny over the way it has acted in other murder appeals -- including a forceful opinion from the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, which said Krasner's office had misled judges so frequently and flagrantly in such matters that state prosecutors must now review instances when his office says a conviction should be overturned. Diamond, in his filing Tuesday, said the assertions in his courtroom -- made primarily by members of Krasner's staff -- were not only proof of significant internal disagreements about Johnson's case, but also "evidence of possible criminal wrongdoing by Mr. Krasner and Stiegler."Some of Krasner's underlings wanted to refer the contentious case to the state's attorney's office -- but Krasner didn't want them to talking about him to outsiders. But Krasner, they testified, was vehemently opposed -- in part because of his disdain for people who worked in the attorney general's office. And during some meetings, they said, Krasner said he wanted to "protect the office"; expressed opposition to telling Diamond about the referral deliberations; and said they would face "consequences" if they did so, which they took to mean being fired. Diamond, in his memorandum, said such a threat "could amount to obstruction of justice." And he said the efforts by Krasner and Stiegler to present a false narrative to the court "might amount to conspiracy."Thanks to @ThePartiarchTree.

Imagine your loved one’s rapist or murderer being acquitted because the forensic analyst on the case decided to destroy the DNA proof linking them to the crime. That’s exactly what 66-year-old Yvonne “Missy” Woods did. Over her decades-long career at the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, this deranged woman altered DNA data in over one-thousand cases, allowing countless criminals to walk free.

Is it going too far to say if a prosecutor like Krasner let off a criminal that hurt a family member, I’d take a shot at him? I don’t understand the affected populace putting up with this. I get the local political machine ensures he can’t be voted out, but nobody goes after him?
The only advantage to pulling Krasner into federal court is if he gets enough pressure to roll up the Soros racket. That depends on Krasner not going in front of a Soros judge. Just talking about the extent of that corruption makes me a little ill. Posted by: Advo at September 15, 2026 07:44 PM (jO4mz) 67
I will concede that idiots like Krasner may imagine they are doing a noble thing by freeing murderers and think that those same murderers will never kill again and certainly none of their loved ones. Fate tends to disagree and someone near and dear will pay with their lives for this injustice.

Fuck the West Coast. Massachusetts needs to be stripped of statehood and ALL OF THEIR LEADERS executed for crimes against humanity.
Catholic Parents Wouldn't Call Their Daughter a Boy, So Now Massachusetts Has Kidnapped Her for Hormone Therapy Joseph and Arlene Kutzko would not tell their daughter she was a boy. Massachusetts took her anyway. The Roman Catholic couple said that staff at Algonquin Regional High School in Southborough began socially transitioning Sophie without telling them, Fox News Radio’s Lighthouse Faith reported. In December 2024, when she was 15, the Department of Children and Families removed her from the house. The stated reason was that her parents would not recognize her as male. Physical abuse claims against Joseph were later called unfounded. That did not return the girl. https://tinyurl.com/yt3n4c5p Posted by: rickb223 at September 15, 2026 07:46 PM (N1hEM) 70

A judge lies in court, or pressures a prosecutor to do the same, or vice versa, and a couple of attorneys fill the air with more lies, and leave the whole mess of lies to a box full of lying jurors who will help you swallow lies with a glass full of more lies, and if you still choke on that poisonous brew of lies and can't cough it up, they'll cough up your name to the armed and dangerous furries of the American countryside.
But if you do something very dangerous, like gang murders or serial rape, or, let's say, just for the sake of argument, you strangled three children, one in front of the next, while taunting their father about it, or something really sick like that? Well, then you're a saint. Like a latter-day Joan d'Arc, except killing and despoiling women and children, instead of the French.

Posted by: Drink Like Vikings at September 15, 2026 08:56 PM (h9Msd) "Rogue" Juror's Family: We're Being Subjected to Constant Harassment and Menace by "Crazy" PeopleBefore that: One of the Lindsay Clancy cultists killed her baby while singing a song from the Wizard of Oz. "Follow the Yellow Brick Road," supposedly. Is this real or just part of her cynical attempt to contrive an insanity plea before becoming a big-time influencer after her acquittal?I would desperately urge RFKJr. to begin a crash review of the SSRIs and hundred other psychoactive drugs that American left-wing women have faked their way into getting prescriptions for. Now, on to the "rogue" juror, which of course means "a black man who did not submit to the bullying of old white liberal Karens." The left realized that smearing a Proud and Strong Black Man was a political loser and gross hypocrisy aside, so now they've gone to an angle they're more comfortable with, smearing him for being a Religious Zealot Weirdo who does not believe in a Woman's Right to Slaughter Her Children. His family says he did not allow his Catholic faith to override his judgment. Well, lefties, if you didn't let this immigrant stay, he wouldn't have hung your jury.
![]() "My family cannot leave the house," the brother said. "They are leaving notes at my mother's house. They won't leave us alone and we don't know anything," he added.RFKJr. please look into SSRIs and the other psycho-making drugs women are doped up to the gills on. A supporter launched a GiveSendGo fundraiser for the juror on Monday, which brought in nearly $190,000 in a matter of hours.Law-vlogger Nate the Lawyer called GiveSendGo about the account and GiveSendGo told him it was legit, and the money would only be released to the "rogue" juror, not to the supporter who started it. More on the hounding of the slave escaped from the Karen Plantation, I mean, rogue juror: The judge extended the period of secrecy of jurors' personnel information -- but only after the inconvenient black man was doxxed so he could be threatened and harassed into suicide.

Sorry, but it isn't the SSRIs. These women are batshit crazy.
I take an SSRI. Have done for decades. Without it, I am suicidal, for no good reason whatsoever. SSRIs can balance seratonin in the brain, which really does matter to some people. Talk therapy is useless if your brain chemistry is wonky and won't budge. I have no idea what SSRIs do to people with normal levels of seratonin in their brains, but when these women show up at the psych office with batshit all over them, I guess those are the med of choice. That would be a form of malpractice, I suppose. But demonizing a medication that saved my life is not helpful. OTOH, maybe I'm batshit crazy too and I just don't realize it. Never wanted to kill my son, though, or my husband. Just me. Posted by: tcn in AK at September 15, 2026 06:16 PM (Ntshk) 17

The original impoundment order was set for two weeks. Today, September 14, Judge William Sullivan extended it until further order of the court.

I have a theory, and it comes from my own experience, but it might shed some light.
When I was young, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, moms stayed home with the kids, but they had other moms to do that in company. The ladies had bridge clubs, they could send kids to another house while they ran errands or got their hair done, they shared coffee and recipes, all that jazz. There was a community beyond the household. Now, not so much. People don't live where their families are, they don't have neighbors with a bunch of kids who swap time for sanity, there is very little support for daily life and the pressure of speaking to only children all day. I think women are somewhat insane, because of the isolation and damned hard work with very little social support. I also think that very few of them grew up in families large enough that they learned to take care of kids, and what was important and what to let go. Some are better prepared than others. Some go nuts. Just my two cents. Posted by: tcn in AK at September 15, 2026 06:24 PM (Ntshk) 49

I have no idea what SSRIs do to people with normal levels of seratonin in their brains, but when these women show up at the psych office with batshit all over them, I guess those are the med of choice. That would be a form of malpractice, I suppose. But demonizing a medication that saved my life is not helpful.
Posted by: tcn in AK at September 15, 2026 06:16 PM (Ntshk) I have been on an SSRI, and after awhile got homicidal ideation that went away awhile after I stopped. I can deduce two things from that. One, I think I'm just sad because my life is shitty, not depressed by a neurochemical imbalance. (Well, vitamin D helps with the seasonal affective disorder, so there's some chemical wonkiness, but apparently not enough for an SSRI to be appropriate.) And two, it isn't as harmless as doctors think, and they should really do studies on how to tell the specific subgroup that will be helped (like you) from those that will react badly (like me).

I think women are somewhat insane, because of the isolation and damned hard work with very little social support. I also think that very few of them grew up in families large enough that they learned to take care of kids, and what was important and what to let go. Some are better prepared than others. Some go nuts.
Just my two cents. Posted by: tcn in AK at September 15, 2026 06:24 PM (Ntshk) Seems like its the reverse - moms used to get away from the cliques and peer group pressure with the kids and husband. Now they get it 24-7 with apps. Because the ones that don't have kids seem nuttier than the moms. I agree that the separation for moms is worse than before, as there would be other moms and aunts and grandparents to ask or vent to or get help, now its drugs from doctors. I think the very first target, even before men of Feminism was to separate young women from the family support and the older cadre of women who could offer advice.

Now, not so much. People don't live where their families are, they don't have neighbors with a bunch of kids who swap time for sanity, there is very little support for daily life and the pressure of speaking to only children all day.
——- Children aren’t allowed to play outside. When I was growing up, it was “get your ass outside and play” Unless you wanted “chores” to do. I never knew or learned what that would actually entail, but it could not have been anything good. Has a kid ever taken mom up on that offer? I really doubt this. Because when I got outside, lo and behold - every other kid in the neighborhood had been evicted with that very same offer. “You too, huh? Well, let’s go exploring down by the crick! Yeah!” And that was the end of it. Everyday, from first light to when the streetlights came on - we were out of the house. Posted by: Common Tater at September 15, 2026 06:37 PM (hefYs) 100

People are mentioning SSRIs, but drugs for other conditions that she said she had, like insomnia, can also have some weird side-effects. And in combination with others, too.
Bipolar was mentioned. That might explain the onset of many of her problems as well as post-partum depression or psychosis. And I saw someone mention possible signs of Cluster B personality disorder.

Have ADHD. Sit for the tests. Be diagnosed in the affirmative. Try and find a doctor that will prescribe Adderall. Posted by: rickb223 at September 15, 2026 06:49 PM (Fzhd7) In my day it was Ritalin. The doc insisted on an SSRI instead. I tried it for awhile but it made me anxious and irritable, so I quit. Eventually someone tested me for ADD and gave me Ritalin, which was very helpful in my desk job where my task was mostly writing. Nowadays I do more physically active work where being distracted is part of the job and I get by just fine with coffee.

Now the media is into a "six figure fundraiser" for the most inconvenient black gentleman, peanuts compared to:
Patrick Clancy's Fundraiser, Total Raised: More than $1 million Details: This GoFundMe campaign was established shortly after the tragic events of January 2023 to assist Patrick Clancy with medical bills, funeral services for his three children, and legal assistance. None of these funds were allocated toward Lindsay Clancy's criminal legal defense. (And his lawsuit?) ------------ Lindsay Clancy's Parents & Sister (The Musgrove Family Fund) Total Raised: Over $1.2 million (approximately $1,234,700) Details: This campaign on GoFundMe was launched in mid-August 2026 by an unaffiliated supporter, Brandee Mulligan, to help Lindsay’s parents, Mike and Paula Musgrove. The family depleted their savings and relocated from CT to MA to support their daughter's legal proceedings. (Including her lawsuit.) This fundraiser goal has just been raised to $3 million.

Posted by: rickb223 at September 15, 2026 06:49 PM (Fzhd7) I would like to see a serious study on the social costs and benefits of making Adderall over-the-counter. It's a very smooth upper. Just half of one is a perfect hangover cure. Also helpful for night-shift workers and long-haul drivers. Yes some may 'abuse' it (in the sense of not meeting a medical need), but will it get them off meth? Will it get them out from interacting with drug dealers? Will it prevent occupational accidents? Will it Make Drinking Great Again? If we were a serious country that wanted to stay serious, I think we would've legalized Adderall before THC. But after works for me too.

Doctors have tried to get me on psychoactive meds multiple times, for poor sleep, for poor focus and concentration, for low-level persistent pain. So I believe there is a certain amount of drug-pushing going on.
Interestingly, a functional medicine doctor I discovered along the way only recommended drugs that actually addressed the root causes of my issues, and these were much more helpful than the psychoactive drugs. Posted by: Emmie, celebrating 250 years of God's grace at September 15, 2026 06:45 PM The VA is notorious for this. Can't sleep?....take this. Can't stay awake?....take this. Back, knee, shoulder pain?....take this. Want to quit smoking?....take this. They hooked me on that chantrix crap to quit smoking. It had black box warnings all over it but they kept handing it out saying it was safe and effective. It was just as bad as an acid trip. I quit that cold turkey and never went back to the VA.

It's almost as if -- now hear me out, this is going to sound crazy -- leftwing women love when not-very-attractive women pose naked because it makes them feel "represented" to see other not-very-attractive women LARPing as sex symbols, but then get angry, jealous, and vag-hurt when an actual sex symbol does the same thing.

This is just typical marketing strategy and yet somehow, women are far more outraged by Sweeney than Lindsay Clancy. Make that make sense.
I can. Although it's not an original thought; I believe one of the Horde made the same point. "Women" hate Sweeney because, as Ace points out, they're either not attractive to men, see men only as sperm-donating wallets or prefer the company of their trendy, bitchy gay bois. The appeal of a Sweeney infuriates them because they not only hate her, they also know that they, too, could look like Sweeney if they put the effort into it. But that would mean surrendering to the patriarchy. Clancy? Her supporters either have had abortions, cheer on abortion at any time or hate that the children they've borne ruined their bodies. They also subscribe to the pernicious 'goddess' worship which elevates some mythical 'earth power' to them.

Posted by: Pillage Idiot at September 15, 2026 04:52 PM (HlyYF) ________ Enhanced with industrial-strength push-ups and probably taping? Yes, for sure. But with implants? Probably not. She's in skimpy gymwear in that boxing movie and her boobs aren't nearly as big and perky as in these ads. They kinda hang flat. Implants don't do that. Unless they deliberately taped them down to make it look like that. Posted by: Elric The Blade at September 15, 2026 05:01 PM (iFTx/) 56

And guess who degenerate gamblers are? HINT: it's men. Risk-friendly men who get a sexual thrill out of gambling. On sports. Real sports. Played by men. But they aren't attracted to the players, unlike gay men, who aren't attracted to gambling on sports. Posted by: Yudhishthira's Dice at September 15, 2026 05:03 PM (BI5O2) 68
I'm loving this. Because these twits are too stupid to understand that this didn't have anything to do with women's sports.
But for those that opened their mouths about SS not being an athlete, OWN GOAL time again. What is it with AWFL's and emotions? Sydney Sweeney is a trained mixed martial artist with a background in grappling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and kickboxing. She began training at age 12, practiced rigorously for five to six years, and competed in tournaments during her teens. Key details of her martial arts journey include: Competition Success: At age 18, she competed in a grappling tournament against male opponents in a higher weight class and won first place. Training Background: She trained two to three times per week, often as the only female in her dojo, and studied under trainers who also worked with former UFC champion Ronda Rousey. Current Status: While her acting contracts often restrict her from sparring or competing due to injury risks, she continues to practice MMA and boxing in her spare time to maintain fitness and prepare for roles, such as her upcoming portrayal of boxer Christy Martin.

I'm just against legal gambling in all its forms. It should be driven underground again by shaming and prosecution. Like addictive drugs, it is a social ill in itself; making it legal just makes society complicit in its harms, without even removing the criminal element as promised. If anything, normalizing gambling gets even more money sloshing around for the crooks' cheating schemes to latch onto.
It isn't the worst thing out there, but we can walk and chew gum at the same time. I can condemn all the forms of degeneracy tearing at civilization's roots at once. Posted by: SciVo at September 15, 2026 05:15 PM (ke3zm) 120

The Charles Kuralt Trail is a network of places Kuralt visited in his Stabbin' Cabin, I mean motor home all over the state of NC. From Manteo to Murphy-546 miles. Marked by official state signage, etc., it has fallen into fading disrepair, much like the image of Chuck himself. No one cares about the randy, old lecher and his homey schtick any more.

Paraphrasing myself on a previous thread,
"How dare a competent woman also happen to be attractive!" is the underlying truth behind most/all 'objectification/male gaze' whining. They don't measure up visually to the women they insist on comparing themselves to, they tell themselves "well at least I'm competent unlike those bimbos", and then they're faced with competent *and* gorgeous.

I have my own mild objections to the ad campaign. First of all, I'll admit what these nasty scolds won't and say that part of my objection is due to simple prudery and a preference for modesty
--- As one of the foremost critics of pornography in the Horde, I agree with you. The question is how to get to a more modest society? I think the first step is the re-establishment of feminine beauty, at which point we can restore its mystique and traditional morality. This is not unusual in history, where we veer from high-neck collars to bodacious cleavage. It goes back and forth. But we've never before seen such a total war on beauty and elevation of disgusting depravity, so before we can even think about the pendulum swinging freely again, we have to crush the freaks and weirdos, driving them before us and listening to the lamentations of the Karens.

Apparently is sports gambling using SS as an advertising prop, they are also saturating podcast and radio ads almost squeezing out political adverts in quantity. Listening to Vince, when nearly all the adverts were sports betting and wagering on the outcome of elections. None of the adverts characterized their business model as gambling but refer to it as "investments". Like lottery tickets are "investments" and valid "retirement plans".

Look at my nic.
It's about a degenerate gambler betting his whole family, most especially his hot sister, on a game of chance, losing it all to a cheater, and then pursuing an apocalyptic war of revenge.

Also notice how Variety went to great lengths to find the least-phototgenic moment in the entire commercial to use as the screenshot of Sidney Sweeney. on the cover. These Photoshop the hell out of aging leftist harridans to make them look better, then turn on the"five o'clock shadow" filter on the Sidney Sweeney screenshot.
But of course they aren't thinking this through clearly -- to make their point (that S.S. is "sexualizing the female body) they shpuld have chesne the sexiest fame in the commercial. By choosing the worst frame and then doctoring it, they're also trying to claim, "See? She ain't so hot," even though that totally contradicts their primary narrative, Posted by: zombie at September 15, 2026 05:23 PM (Av6i5) 162

Yay capitalism!
I'm a woman, albeit old. I say, the good T&A don't last forever and she's got a goldmine there so, so what? She owns part of that company. She can't be a millionaire or billionaire using sex to sell? Then let's be lining up a whole lot of women - and men - in entertainment and sports before her. Better yet, let's go back to those who entertained for the Gaddafi Regime (Libya); The dos Santos Regime (Angola);Turkmenistan; Middle Eastern absolute monarchies (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar); Chechnya; North Korea; and Kazakhstan. And then we can do even more of who was an a**hole for money. Leave her alone. Don't like it, don't look, don't buy, don't play.

So the SI Swimsuit editions (until recently, of course) were just fine
---- No. They were never fine. Long before they started putting obese cows on billboards for Victoria's Secret advertisements, decades even, they were bitching about "conventional standards of beauty". Their argument was (naturally) there are no objective standards of beauty. What males consider to be beautiful attributes in the female form are a social construct. So a fat hog (to put it charitably) is just as "beautiful" as fashion model. Now I get it, physical appearance, those types of attributes are not doled out equally any more than mathematical ability or musical ability or athletic ability or....

Recently there is a lot of nostalgia represented in films of olden times, like the 70s or earlier (some posted by Ace.) Before the war, you notice most men wore suits and a hat. It was like a public uniform that civilized people wore whether they were working, or just strolling.
I miss that. I miss the formality of public life. I think that includes women not showing their tits everytime someone drops a few dollars at their feet. It also includes not cursing every other word, trying to spell the whole word in texts, etc. Posted by: bob (moron inbobnitus) at September 15, 2026 04:53 PM (Y9s2Z) anemoia: Nostalgic longing for a time or place you have never personally experienced.

I even remember the 80s, and I still have anemoia for a world of men in suits and women in dresses, both with smart hats, just to go out. Apparently, even in the 50s, teens were already wearing jeans and t-shirts instead, and I guess it mostly held steady there for a long time. I think I may be reacting to the new low of seeing people at the store wearing pajama pants with crocs. It makes me want to dress up like I never saw people do IRL.

Well its not modest. But what hollywood actress is modest?
Hollywood actress models are basically upscale only fans thots. They get a lump sum to let millions of guys look at them. Only fans chicks charge each of those million guys. Thats not to say a thot cant be conservative or cool. Its just not an great credential for wife and mother. I knew a kid in high school whose mom was in playboy when she was younger.

Key details of her martial arts journey include:
Competition Success: At age 18, she competed in a grappling tournament against male opponents in a higher weight class and won first place. Training Background: She trained two to three times per week, often as the only female in her dojo, and studied under trainers who also worked with former UFC champion Ronda Rousey. Current Status: While her acting contracts often restrict her from sparring or competing due to injury risks, she continues to practice MMA and boxing in her spare time to maintain fitness and prepare for roles, such as her upcoming portrayal of boxer Christy Martin. Posted by: rickb223 at September 15, 2026 05:03 PM (Fzhd7) I had no idea she had this kind of athletic background. Actually makes her more attractive to me.

Posted by: NaughtyPine at September 15, 2026 08:08 PM (43WNg) Comer to DHS: Release the Evidence of Ilhan Omar's Immigration Fraud So That We Can Decide Whether to Expel Her from CongressBut I don't think it will happen, not yet anyway.The chairman of the House Oversight Committee is vowing to pursue a contempt vote against financier Leon Black for refusing testimony in the Jeffrey Epstein probe and calling on the Trump administration to release any evidence showing whether Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar broke immigration laws and should be expelled from Congress. Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., made the comments Monday night after Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin and White House border czar Tom Homan indicated such evidence involving Omar exists and is under investigation. "I think they should make it public. Absolutely, make it public," Comer said during an interview on the Just the News, No Noise television show. "The evidence that I've seen would show that they would be privy to a lot more evidence than I would have. Most of the evidence I have is public already, anyway. So I think it should be made public, and I think the members of Congress should be the judge and the jury in this. "Let us vote as to whether or not she needs to remain in Congress. If you violated the laws to become a citizen, should that make you ineligible to be a member of Congress? I think so. But put it up for a vote in Congress and let the American people see how their member of Congress would vote on that." Mullin revealed Thursday there is evidence that Omar, D-Minn., "married her brother" as part of an alleged immigration scheme and there is an "ongoing" investigation. "We know that she married her brother to try to bring him to the United States," Mullin told conservative podcaster Benny Johnson, adding that Omar's ex-husband lives in London. Mullin explained that lying about certain things on an immigration application can result in deportation, and there's no expiration for that. The investigation may turn up "illegal activity," which could result in Omar being deported, Mullin suggested. He cautioned that the case is still being investigated and insisted it's not politically motivated.I don't think DHS will comply until it has made a decision itself whether to denaturalize her or not. I think that's usually their rule, that they will not release information while an investigation is active. You'd have to subpoena them and get a judge to agree that Congress's need for information outweighs the Executive's need for confidentiality during investigations.

I think the biggest problem with Omar is that it's hard to decide what illegality to look at first. You don't just shut down a botique winery out of the blue after it goes from a value of under $50k to worth "milions" in less than a year if it is legit.
A congresswoman doesn't just pass off the accumulation of $30 Million in less than a year to accounting errors. Sure, the immigration issue if the current focus, but there's likely wire fraud, false filings, grand larceny, federal fraud, and all kinds of other felonies hanging out there.

"Let us vote as to whether or not she needs to remain in Congress. If you violated the laws to become a citizen, should that make you ineligible to be a member of Congress?"
Congress used to vote on whether to admit an individual who won his election in the first place. It wouldn't be a question whether she should "remain" in office. In a sane world, she would have never been allowed there in the first place. The press would have shined a 500,000 watt spotlight on her past, and if she managed to squeek through the election, Congress would have put the kibosh on this shit. Your Supreme Court decided that Congress can't make its own rules long ago. See how that's working out? We can't even have secure elections. Plenty more where this bitch came from, be sure of that.

To deport that liar, the first step would normally be to schedule a hearing of her case by an immigration judge. I think. She can appear or not. If Mullins and Trump are serious, they need DHS to send her a Notice To Appear with the location, date, and time.
She will not appear. I doubt she sends anyone, other than maybe a zillion-dollar-an-hour Democrat defense lawyer. Like Abbe Lowell. So he can make a high-falutin' speech about political persecution.

I am surprised at the A.I. Kerfuffle. The op about regulation and all. I am also surprised that no one seems to get the purpose behind the op. They want gov. regulation because they fear there will be rogue A.I. out there which tell the truth. There is much truth out there that most of the public does not know. (We know some of it here.) About immigration costs and purpose, about the goals of islam, about mental illness and sexuality and degeneracy, covid, vaccines, .... The powers that be are starting to understand that unless gov. regulates A.I. heavily, it will start adding 2+2 and telling people "4", and they can't have that. It would collapse the world. The "please regulate me" op is about preventing rogue A.I from being outside their control and telling people the truth. Posted by: bob (moron inbobnitus) at September 15, 2026 04:00 PM (Y9s2Z) 65

@bennyjohnson BOMBSHELL: Is Illhan Omar an American Citizen? Minnesota Investigative Journalist Reveals Evidence That Ilhan Omar May Have Lied To Obtain U.S. Citizenship This just blew my mind...Illhan Omar has always claimed she came to America as a 'child' and was naturalized as a minor at 17 -- but new documents show she may have been 18. That is really important because as an adult Illhan would have to apply for citizenship herself and not be waved in as a minor dependent of her war criminal father. Liz Collin of Alpha News has evidence that Illhan Omar changed her birth year to not have to apply for citizenship legally. If Illhan Omar lied about her birth year she is here illegally and her citizenship is fraudulent. "Omar has repeatedly claimed that she became a citizen at the age of 17. But based on public records, Omar was actually 18 in the year 2000, when her father became eligible to apply for citizenship." "Just two days later, her congressional staff contacted the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library, this is back in 2019, to change the Congresswoman's date of birth from October 4th, 1981 to October 4th, 1982."

After a while I got it to admit that AFD is standard leftwing party outside of immigration and that their immigration stance would be considered normal for any other Euro left party 10-20 years ago.

I think the biggest problem with Omar is that it's hard to decide what illegality to look at first. You don't just shut down a botique winery out of the blue after it goes from a value of under $50k to worth "milions" in less than a year if it is legit. A congresswoman doesn't just pass off the accumulation of $30 Million in less than a year to accounting errors. Sure, the immigration issue if the current focus, but there's likely wire fraud, false filings, grand larceny, federal fraud, and all kinds of other felonies hanging out there.

The biggest thing here, and the thing the left is most desperate to prevent, is any actual charges.
Because they know what will be revealed. And, I'll note, the Fainting Goats of the GOP all fell stone stiff when Trump went after AOC and the rest of them: "They're too popular! They're minority woman! You can't attack them! [thump]" And what happened?

Posted by: Daniel Ream at September 15, 2026 06:26 PM (LgYtf) Gavin Newsom Lies to Placate the Black Vote, Claiming He Won't Run if Kamala Harris DoesWell, Kamala Harris is running at the moment. I can't say she'll stay in all the way but as of now, she's running. Gavin Newsom is also running. So he's lying. I see a lot of non-stunned faces in the comments.California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) told CNN he will not run for president in 2028 if former Vice President Kamala Harris enters the race. Newsom made the comment during a fly-fishing outing in Montana with CNN's Jake Tapper, as part of an ongoing series that was announced on Monday in which the anchor joins politicians in their favorite places to discuss their careers. Tapper pressed Newsom on the crowded Democrat field, noting he was not even the only potential candidate from California before naming Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Harris. "I don't know if she runs, but we'll see," Newsom said. When Tapper noted Harris had "called around," the governor added, "But I wouldn't run if she ran." Tapper asked him to confirm the line. "Of course not. Why would I? I wouldn't do that to her," Newsom said. "I wouldn't waste everyone's time. Who needs that?" Newsom argued a primary between the two Californians would only benefit the rest of the field, describing the scenario as "mutually assured destruction." "Electorally, it's a gift from God for everybody else," he said. "It services no greater good."Kamala Harris has the biggest share of the black vote in polls, ranging between 34% and 49%. Newsom has only 14%. He has another problem: Black Democrats are serious about DEI, by which I mean, they demand that jobs go to them, and that includes nominee slots. James Clyburn infamously insisted that Biden choose a black female for Vice President. He did. Black Democrats insisted Biden appoint a black female non-biologist to the Supreme Court. He did. And we're seeing black Democrats in Texas reject the gay white kid James Talarico for "stealing" the nomination that belongs (due to DEI assumptions) Jasmine Ratchet. Gavin Newsom can't win a majority of the black vote against the DEI-privileged candidate Kamala Harris. He doesn't need to. But, if he defeats Kamala Harris, to whom the 2028 nomination "belongs" to by DEI illogic, he will have to bring bitter DEI-zealot black Democrats on board for the general. So he's making this empty promise now that he will step aside and give Kamala Harris the nomination that "belongs" to her if she wants it. But what will he do when she runs? That is a problem, I'm sure he's thinking, for Future Gavin Newsom, which Future Gavin Newsom will just have to deal with when it comes up. For now, he's letting black Democrats know he will not "steal" a nomination from the Stronk Empowered Black (and Indian) Woman it "belongs" too. So if she decides not to run because she finally gets a DUI arrest, he's positioned himself right for James Clyburn. Note that Jake Tapper is now deliberately "humanizing" inhuman Democrat politicians by interviewing them in contrived campaign-commercial scenarios. I'm including a very smart rebuttal to my point:

Deval Patrick. Full black guy and former governor of Massachusetts. His campaign lasted about 3 months before he dropped out and everyone forgot he'd ever entered the race.

How exactly to put this.... "IT DOESN'T MATTER!!" There...that should do it.
The Left no longer votes for a candidate. They vote against the other candidate. This, also, occurs in Democrat primaries (which I might add are concluded before the first primary vote is cast). Someone is chosen, and then the powers that be apply the choice. This includes bribing close challengers out of the race, denigrating those primary candidates that don't pull the line 100%, shutting down campaign donations and funds, circumventing PACS with actual threats, and... ...stuffing ballot boxes on a state by state basis, and rigging states that use a caucus process.

But sure, those same donors will give buckets of money to another Kamala campaign.
Ex-Dem insider exposes what Harris told top donors days before Biden dropped out: ‘All charade’ A former DNC fundraiser who later left the party after likening it to a cult has claimed Harris was gearing up to poach Biden’s donors days before he abandoned his re-election bid – despite proclaiming she was supporting him and could still win. “She would host calls with donors and pretend to support Biden ” Lindy Li, who previously branded Harris’ failed presidential bid a $1 billion disaster, told Fox News Digital. But Harris’ charm offensive was part of a broader tactic should an opportunity arise to replace Biden in the race... But some donors were unconvinced by the narrative Harris was trying to peddle, according to Li, who branded the veep’s approach “insulting.” “And the immediate reaction is what an effing waste of time. What a charade, how fake. Like these are like the wealthiest people in the country saying that.

As a guy who is suspicious of everything, and who thinks everything is an op (and who is usually right about that), I suspect there's some long game being played in private.
Tapper never would have asked the question about Newscum running against Kneepad Semen Queen unless Newscum wanted it asked. Unless Newscum has reason to believe that Semen Queen isn't running, why would he set up a response to a question that will ultimately be a lie? I get it that Newscum wants to try to appeal to black voters by being gracious to their favored candidate. So why say something like this that will soon be exposed as a lie? Or unless Newscum is secretly not planning on running himself? I think both of these are highly unlikely.

So... if Harris is a candidate will she participate in any debates? I don't think that's plays to any of her alleged strong suits, does it?
Or are the Democrats going to forego any debates and just install the nominee like last time? Either way, the left has a bit of a struggle on their hands.

Why ? As we've seen today, The Supremes sit ready (they don't stand, its not judicial) to allow pretty much whatever fraud happens to happen as long as they can hold onto their spots just a little while longer. So who's going to beat her in a rigged race ? Vance ? DeSantis ? Neither has the "across the board" popularity Trump did (and he doesn't have that now either). She'll get 90% of the black vote. 3/4 of the jewish vote. 2/3 of the asian vote. 60% of the white female vote that doesn't fit into any of the previous categories. And 110% of the previously mentioned combined vote. She'll lose legal hispanics and white men by about 2-1. Exactly how many of them and us do you think there are here ?

In important news (baseball):
Had a fall baseball practice for catchers and pitchers. My oldest catches and after catching for some of the pitchers, they gave the catchers an opportunity to show their best pop times (time from the catcher's glove to the glove of the baseman covering second base). MLB average pop times are 1.6-2.5 seconds. My oldest smoked the competition with 2.15 seconds. Next closest was 2.25 seconds. The third guy got 2.35 seconds. I might mention that the slowest was a senior, varsity catcher. My oldest is a freshman. He's worked very hard at it, and it was a nice triumph for him and opportunity to show the coach and players there what kind of stuff he had.

It's pretty easy to discern what the Democrats have to do, considering what they have done.
Nobody wants to vote for a hectoring whack job cat lady. "Why aren't I 50 points ahead, you might ask?". So they have to manufacture the support. That's where the media comes in. Same with homosexuals, like Buttgige. Electoral poison, they have to try and manufacture electoral support that isn't there. Even AlGore had to get a little media massage with the help of Rolling Stone. They chased off a significant chunk of the male vote regardless of ethnicity, the genuine rank and file working class, business owners, etc., and are frightening wide swathes of the country, jews, women and horses. The remainder seems to be a shrinking pool of ... whatever ... and are fucking nuts, and it's increasingly evident that electoral fraud constitutes much, if not most of their popularity. Just as I have suspected for decades now. Posted by: Common Tater at September 15, 2026 03:02 PM (ugvYV) 172

I'm still convinced the candidate won't be a radical (or retard such as Harris or Newsom). The ability to cheat (even with the most recent SCOTUS decision) has be tempered somewhat. As a result the Democrats require someone who is comparable to the likely Republican candidates. They, desparately, need someone who gives the perception of moderation, but is controlable and, more importantly, only gives the perception...not the goods.
They could care less about the black vote. They can make that up in the ballot stuffing. What they need is the INDEPENDENT vote. And, they don't get that with Harris or Newsom. They are both damaged goods. Look for Andy Beshear to start emerging. He's already established his own PAC. He just wrote off over $250 Million in medical costs to 130,000 Kentucky residents. He's lining himself up. He chairs the Dem Governor's Association (which means he controls some of the purse strings). The NYT"s even did an article asking if he was the next Bill Clinton (in a good way). Posted by: Orson at September 15, 2026 03:03 PM (dIske) 181

Imagine you’re black and the people they pick to represent you are a retarded lush who can’t speak in full sentences or with and ounce of cogency, and that dunce on the Supreme Court who gets stumped when they ask her what kind of milk she wants in her coffee and writes like a five year old alien from the planet Jotunheim who has no grasp of the English language. “Just like me”, indeed.

216 I see Massie is filing impeachment against Pete Hegseth. This just makes it more and more obvious that the Dems' master plan to Get Trump was that Mark Kelly would, with a flash of his penis-shaped head, lead a military coup. And now they're sad because the people in the military mostly love Trump again and understand that Mark Kelly is a walking penis who uses his undead wife as a human shield.

Alternative possibility: Newsome is a fucking failure and sleazebag subhuman who all humans hate, and his state is a national disaster, it's become a byword for failure, his failed name can't be separated from that failure, and internal polls keep telling this sick bastard "nobody will vote for a subhuman psychopath failure like you, especially with your weirdo robo-whore wife freaking them out all the time, and your campaign is doomed," and this is him tossing out a fig leaf to explain away and abandon his newest terrible failure, as he has done with so many catastrophic failures in the past.

I'm extremely skeptical that a woman of color can win the presidency, given what we saw in 2016 and 2024. There are too many bigots. I think Pete has the same issue. Harris and Buttigieg are both eminently qualified and I would trust either to do an amazing job, but I don't think I'm the median voter.
It has nothing to do with the median voter and everything to do with the median electoral vote. Because of the EC there is no use for candidates and parties to focus on the median American or most of America. The median voter lives in NH or MN. The median electoral vote is in PA or WI. In America people don't matter but empty land does. I think someone like Michelle Obama or Oprah could easily win the presidency if they wanted to. I don’t think Kamala Harris can. That has nothing to do with her being a woman of color and everything to do with being a mediocre candidate with fatal flaws. I’m hoping the nominee is someone out of left field we don’t even know the name of yet, like Obama. Newsom probably also shouldn’t run.

This is intolerable.The Supreme Court on Monday rejected the Trump administration's emergency bid to enforce new U.S. Postal Service (USPS) restrictions on mail-in ballots ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, leaving a lower court's nationwide block in place. In a brief order, the court said the government was "unlikely to succeed on the merits" for purposes of obtaining emergency relief and had not shown that the legal and practical considerations warranted a stay. The rules would require federal ballot mail to be sent in envelopes bearing an election-mail logo, capable of being scanned by high-speed equipment and carrying a barcode unique to each voter. State and local election officials would also be required to submit envelope designs to the Postal Service for review and upload basic voter information to an online USPS portal. Under the USPS rule, mailings that failed to comply would not be accepted and would instead be returned to election officials to correct and resubmit. A federal judge previously blocked the USPS from implementing the rules, including the online portal that could be used to track millions of mail ballots. Justice Brett Kavanaugh agreed with the Supreme Court's decision but indicated the USPS may ultimately have the authority to impose the requirements.See, we delayed and delayed until we could claim that implementing the order would come too late and cause "chaos" so we win, you lose.

I just like to point out that the real target for all of these changes is 2028.
2028 is the important election. He who wins 2028 controls the 2030 census. If Vance controls the 2030 census, he can ensure that the count is done right and shift the House 20-30 seats to the right by simply counting things right instead of estimating and modeling like the last census did.

I think the final USPS rule that was promulgated in August was too aggressive in what it required to have much of a chance to be upheld. I think this rule is playing for 2028 with the much bigger prize of the Presidency.
The final rules require: 1. Federal ballot mail be sent in envelopes with three special features: an election-mail logo, the ability to be scanned using high-speed processing equipment, and a specialized barcode unique to each voter. 2. States must design envelopes that adhere to these requirements and submit the designs to the Postal Service for review. 3. States must upload basic information about the voter to a Postal Service portal. IIRC, only 12 states of the 50 said they could comply with this in time for November. There are certainly more than 12 red states. So even some red states didn't think it could be done. This is a play for 2028. If it was truly for 2026, Trump would have announced these final rules much earlier than last month. Posted by: Elric The Blade at September 15, 2026 01:37 PM (iFTx/) 57

They could not abide good things for America or it's people, so they had to go Code Red.

Thomas Dewey in 1948 was called literally Hitler by the Democrats.
----- Technically speaking, it is highly suspicious that Democrats retained the White House. There is a natural ebb and flow to politics, and Democrats had held it since 1932. Just by the law of averages, the electorate likes to switch parties to the other guy after a decades long stint like that. It may not be rational even, but that's how it works. Always. And yet .. an unpopular Democrat president against all odds wins against the Republican at the last minute. I'm sure everything was on the up and up.

Posted by: Smell the Glove at September 15, 2026 02:09 PM (N2HNb) ======= One of the secrets (it seems) of elections is that overall trends are unevenly spread across the country. So, electorate goes from R+2 to D+5? Does that mean every district moves to the left seven points? Of course not. It's going to be deeply uneven. Deep blue districts will end up accounting for most of the change because they're the most motivated to vote. Deep red districts will hardly budge at all and may even stay exactly the same. Swing districts may move a few points, but definitely not evenly at 7. That pattern could get worse with the increasing division between how red states and blue states are running their elections. A million more votes in Los Angeles will definitely win the city's districts...which were already D. But nothing for FL in that.

- It's not really a condemnation of Trump to say that he hasn't done enough. Our system isn't designed to allow the President, by himself, to "do enough." The complaint is about recognizing the magnitude of the problem, and if condemnation is due anywhere, to the congress which has been useless and the courts which are clearly committed to the destruction of the country.

Sadly those are the only ones who actually operate for the public good and as representatives of their voters which is supposed to be the baseline. Usually the best you can do is to vote for the ones that see their best interests in doing what their supporters want them to do. But never think they won't sell out their supporters on a dime if their potential personal benefits are big enough to them.

It's not really a condemnation of Trump to say that he hasn't done enough. Our system isn't designed to allow the President, by himself, to "do enough." The complaint is about recognizing the magnitude of the problem, and if condemnation is due anywhere, to the congress which has been useless and the courts which are clearly committed to the destruction of the country.
== We're screwed and its not trumps fault - is pretty hard to argue against. Barring divine providence, this isn't a problem that is fixable by routine human politics and it was that way before he got started. Credit him for making extraordinary effort, and having the faith that something positive will follow him. Because its going to take following leaders to keep up the work. It took many Presidents to get us in the hole, and it will take many to get us out. Posted by: Shucks whatever shall be done at September 15, 2026 02:21 PM (jvkDG) 239

It is only a project of part of a day to redesign a flyer to match postal rules for barcodes like that. I used to show reasonably bright high school guys how to do stuff like that all the time.

OT:
I love the fact that there seems to be an API for everything. While cleaning up I came across a big old box of cassette tapes, probably a couple of hundred. I was thinking I should catalog them but doing so would probably take a couple of weeks of manual entry. So I was like, there's got to be an API out there with a barcode database for music cassettes and sure enough there is. Built a python script in about an hour, tested it by manually entering in a couple, it worked flawlessly, dug out a barcode scanner from my, I'm probably going to need this in the future box. And voila, it works. The API in question is Discogs API. Posted by: Thomas Bender at September 15, 2026 02:29 PM (XV/Pl) 268

294 Well, yeah. Because that's literally what happened in 24.

Posted by: Washington Nearsider: Gotterdammerung at September 15, 2026 02:39 PM (gLYp7) ======= False. Democrats let that happen so that they could win in 2026 and do impeachment theater! It's so obvious. Posted by: TheJamesMadison, discovering British horror with Hammer Films at September 15, 2026 02:40 PM (o87sR) 296
Kavanaugh has been compromised. His last two rulings make no sense whatsoever. Is he being threatened or blackmailed?

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) on Tuesday launched an effort to impeach Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, citing the Pentagon’s military actions against Iran.
Massie, a frequent critic of President Trump, accused Hegseth of launching an illegal war that was not approved by Congress. He introduced articles of impeachment on the House floor against Hegseth for “high crimes and misdemeanors.” Posted by: Bertram Cabot, Jr. at September 15, 2026 01:36 PM (Cqx++) Hey, Massie....STFD and STFU. I'll stop there. The GOPe is a worthless pile of dogshit. Posted by: thatcrazyjerseyguy at September 15, 2026 03:10 PM (hmYU4) 299
37 Thanks, James Madison, for your positive words against the constant doom and gloomers. Perhaps you can give a nod to a replacement when you're not able to post as much because of your new job. And congratulations on that as well!
Posted by: FenelonSpoke at September 15, 2026 01:34 PM (JrHfD) Hey, TJM - just found out from the above post (thanks, FenelonSpoke) that you are now employed. That is great news, and congratulations! Hope everything works out for you. Posted by: Retired, thank God at September 15, 2026 03:12 PM (va0Yo) 300
I got a mail-in ballot (Ohio) that I didn’t ask for, and it went straight into the trash. I do my voting in person.

Sorry to post late. (Needed to be out of the house.)
There's a Whistleblower complaint which can be seen through Senator Blumenthal's website, www.blumenthal.senate.gov. (You know I'm an idiot with addresses, and I know blowing the margins is a huge no-no. Fingers crossed, below is the designation of the document: 2026-08-31_final_letter-disclosure >From the U.S. Senate, Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs, to David Steiner Postmaster General and Chief Executive Officer United States Postal Service It begins, "My office is in receipt of an alarming whistleblower disclosure (the “Disclosure” Posted by: L - No nic... at September 15, 2026 05:16 PM (NFX2v) 302
Continued -
Of course, there's much more to the complaint. Reading all suggested. As further background, Tech Town reported, 9/1/26, the following: 'USPS Mail Ballot Portal’s Zero-Tolerance Scan Rule Ignores Its Own Inspector General’s Error Data" Federal whistleblower warns batch-wide ballot rejections are mathematically predictable before November The disclosure, prepared by Whistleblower Aid attorneys on behalf of an anonymous federal official with direct knowledge of the portal's development, was transmitted to Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Connecticut) on Monday, August 31, and released publicly Tuesday morning. Blumenthal, who received the disclosure in his role as Ranking Member of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, forwarded it to USPS Postmaster General David Steiner and demanded answers by September 4. The disclosure was reported simultaneously by NOTUS on the morning of its release. Hopefully, the above info. fills some gaps as to how & why. You/we knew they would be prepared to stop anything that took control of ballots from the hands of the Democrats and their operatives.
