Posted by: m at December 05, 2025 04:23 AM (RuTUS) Thursday Overnight Open Thread - December 4, 2025 [Doof]![]() How Times Change Bernie and Biden - is that really you?
A 65-year-old Thai woman stunned temple staff at a Buddhist temple near Bangkok after she was found alive inside a coffin just before her scheduled cremation. The incident occurred at Wat Rat Prakhong Tham in Nonthaburi province, where a video posted to the temple’s Facebook page showed the woman lying in a white coffin in the back of a pickup truck. Temple workers were shocked when they noticed movement—her arms and head subtly shifting. Pairat Soodthoop, the temple’s general and financial affairs manager, told the Associated Press that the woman had been brought from Phitsanulok province by her brother. He said the Thai woman had been bedridden for two years and appeared to have stopped breathing two days earlier. The brother, assuming she had died, placed her in a coffin and drove approximately 500 kilometers to Bangkok, intending to donate her organs as per her earlier wish. However, a hospital declined to accept the body due to the lack of an official death certificate.Emphasis mine. This must be the Thailand equivalent of a "Florida Man" story.
Oh, you were looking for something else about animals and alcohol? Got ya covered! Wild chimps consume more alcohol than anyone expected Date: December 1, 2025 Source: University of California - Berkeley Summary: Chimpanzees naturally ingest surprising amounts of alcohol from ripe, fermenting fruit. Careful measurements show that their typical fruit diet can equal one to two human drinks each day. This supports the idea that alcohol exposure is not a modern human invention but an ancient primate habit. The work strengthens the “drunken monkey” hypothesis and opens new questions about how animals use ethanol cues in their environment.This might be a repeat story from a previous ONT of mine. Not sure. I don't read my content.

Consider buying a package of socks and donating it to your local charity/shelter. Not many people donate socks, so there is almost always a shortage.

—— I think you have to buy a Camaro at 16% interest when dating a stripper iirc. I had a roommate who was a bouncer at a strip club. He wasn’t Tom Cruise by any stretch but he could pull some tail. Proximity is its own reward. Problem was he couldn’t stay awake at work, and the Army expects people to work. He’d go down to the motor pool and get a creeper and then get under a truck. Tangle his arms up under the engine like he was working on something. Someone walking by, it looked like he was doing repairs or maintenance.

AH Lloyd I sort of assumed that re CAFE, but am further assuming that (as with the fee for Class III firearms permits) the regulators could reduce the standard to, effectively, zero. Of course manufacturers could be wary, in the event of calamity in 2028 (i.e. return to totalitarian racist retard rule). But imports could flow in.
I have only seen references and brief snippets on it, but seems that Trump did something that would, inter alia, make importation of Hiluxes possible. Hope so, though I'm not a likely buyer. Just curious why that vehicle was effectively banned. For years I have seen, online, people (justifiably, I'd guess) whining about that situation.

What happens when you divide by zero on a mechanical 1950s calculator?
I usually post stuff like this on the hobby thread, but - we had a TRS-80 when I was a kid. When I was ten I recalled there was a square-root program in the Basic book when Extended Basic had the SQR() function, which wouldn't allow SQR(-1). I vaguely knew that SQR(-1) wasn't a thing. (I didn't know about the Imaginary plane of i.) So I tried running the Basic square-root program. (I didn't know about calculus or Newton then, either. Or the concept of convergence.) It just kept running and running without any conclusion. This is why they don't let ten year olds code, I guess. Posted by: gKWVE at December 04, 2025 10:35 PM (gKWVE) 156

The formulas are complicated, but short story it was far more profitable to build large expensive trucks than small, and it helped satisfy fleet CAFE standards as well. (Only because of bad legislation). Foreign companies stopped importing them because there’s been a 25% “chicken tarriff” on all small trucks. (And that was long before Trump) So he has now wiped all that away. Small trucks can be imported and sold again. Personally, I had a couple in the 80’s and 90’s and lovec them.

And then it all ended and all of my posts vanished (like this one will) shortly after I posted them. Doof, is there anything you can do?

Before the OPEC oil embargo, everybody and their brother put up outdoor Christmas lights. They went dark during the embargo and have only partially come back. My father and a lot of south Jersey would string ropes of laurel first, then string the C7s. It was fun pre-embargo to pile the family into the station wagon in the evening to drive around to see all the lights.

For extra credit, explain why "CAFE" standards are not just eliminated, instead of tweaked/lowered? Posted by: rhomboid at December 04, 2025 10:25 PM (U/Byj) CAFE standard declare the mpg allowed for all the vehicles manufactured by a manufacturer and sold in the US. At the moment the vehicles outside of that size are the size of an old F-350 or bigger. CAFE standards were initially meant to help resolve the 1973 OPEC price hike and peak oil, now they are to push EVs. For reasons. "No. Consumers didn't wake up one day and decide they didn't want a 2 seater pickup that got 25 mpg and told Ford marketing surveys they want massive trucks that feel like your driving a Boeing 737. Those trucks were regulated out of existence by accelerated CAFE standards under democrats who literally wanted to regulate the ICE out of the market" Posted by: Kindltot at December 04, 2025 10:51 PM (rbvCR) Posted by: Soothsayer at December 04, 2025 10:51 PM (jwV58) 235

Until today, U.S. regulations made it impossible to sell in our markets" and positive comments about the Hilux Champ: Here are 5 great points about the Toyota Hilux Champ: 1) Starts at just ~$13,000 USD – insanely affordable for a brand-new Toyota truck. 2) Tough 2.0L/2.7L petrol or 2.4L diesel engines with proven Hilux durability. 3) Ladder-frame chassis, rear-wheel drive, and high ground clearance – built for real work and off-road. 4) Super modular: flatbed, camper, food truck, or mini-RV conversions are easy and factory-supported. 5) Legendary Toyota reliability + huge parts network worldwide – it will outlast almost anything in its price range further, you can buy them for ready cash in Colombia with a diesel engine, and I am pissed about this.

Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.
Posted by: Nemo I had to check every letter, but, yeah, that'll do. 💡 I thought Trump did away with the incandescent ban back in his first administration. Also low-flow in shower heads and appliances. Problem with all these kinds of things is, 1 First, government bans (or overtaxes) something, the manufacturers go out of business, move overseas, or at best re-tool. 2. Then the other party gets in, and even with good incentives, they have to start up those factories, coal mines, and nuke plants from scratch, build the incandescent market back up, rejigger all the toilets, whatever. 3. Then the regulator party gets back in and the cycle starts over (jump to 1). Not worth it. Which is why we need to completely and permanently eradicate the whole attitude about regulatory government - yeah, sure. 🙄 Posted by: mindful webworker - maybe after a quarter-century of hardcore MAGA.... at December 04, 2025 11:05 PM (XWUig) 297

Now, he hears it all day. The Minnesota governor, on Thursday, Dec. 4, said people have been driving by his home and screaming the retard-slur — a word used to malign those with intellectual disabilities — since President Donald Trump called him that in a social media post last week. “This creates danger,” the embattled governor said, discussing Republican rhetoric. “… I’ve never seen this before: people driving by my house and using the R-word in front of people. This is shameful, and I have yet to see an elected official — a Republican elected official — say you’re right, that’s shameful.” Poor, retarded Tim.

Posted by: Braenyard - some Absent Friends are more equal than others _ at December 04, 2025 11:06 PM (xacU7) Maybe it's time to revisit the Gyrojet action for light machine guns. No recoil, because each projectile is a tiny rocket. No rifling needed, because the rocket jets are tangential, imparting spin. Gun would be very cheap to build. The drawbacks to Gyrojet were low velocity at short range, and poor accuracy. AS a pintle-mounted machinegun, neither of those would very important. Main use would be dealing with mobs.

I'm not loud, but I'm tacky. Posted by: BarelyScaryMary has never wrecked a car at December 04, 2025 11:46 PM (6p0Jv) I'm thinking of switching to LED lights. The problem is there's 30 frigging years of hallmark star trek and star wars ornaments that are powered by removing a bulb from the strand and plugging it in. If I can't remove single bulbs from the strings I'm screwed, and I'm not sure the LED ones work that way. For years I kept thinking about making them their own dedicated harness from 1 single light string, but every year we added more ornaments. The more recent ornaments don't get plugged in anymore and have their own batteries, which is stupid because they don't stay on until you turn them on individually, then they turn off by themselves in like 20 seconds, which makes them frigging worthless as a tree ornament. The only upside is I'm now working with a finite number of "plug in" ornaments and can make the harness.

Not sure how LED string lights work. Individual LED's nominally work at 4.5 volts DC. You can string them in series to take a higher DC voltage, but if one draws a bit more juice than the others, the voltage doesn't apportion well, and something will burn out. Maybe the string lights get away with it because they are so low-powered?

Posted by: JQ at December 04, 2025 11:54 PM (rdVOm) yeah, this is why the tree takes 3 days. You have to unbox the start trek ornament, pull a bulb, plug in the ornament, make sure it makes contact in the socket so the string don't die, then put the bulb in the ornament box so you know where it is. then to take the tree down you have to leave the lights on as you unplug each ornament, then replace the bulb to make sure the light string lights back up. You get to do this for at 50 frigging ornaments. I swear, I'm tempted to go all kinds of goldfinger, cut a circular hole in the floor, install a hydraulic platform, push a button at my desk and a fully decorated tree appears from the frigging basement.

The only upside is I'm now working with a finite number of "plug in" ornaments and can make the harness.

*laughs and runs away* Posted by: Doof -------------- Waaay ahead of you, Disco! I already draped a bunch of lights behind the bar & over the big mirror. Got a nice big wreath and more lights over the fireplace. Elf on the shelf is on the cash register for now, but will be placed back in the box on Caturday Nights-- "What happens in ClubONT, *stays* in ClubONT" of course. There's shiny garland around the main bar area & a 10ft noble fir just inside the entryway, decked out with bubble lights, guitar lights, multi-colored mini-lights and ornaments Club customers have brought in. Stop by and check it out! But I'll still untangle and check your silly pile of lights, because I love Christmas. Posted by: JQ at December 05, 2025 12:08 AM (rdVOm) 410

Four seasons,
Sorry that Qdpsteve told you that on the gun thread, must have missed it but that is well beyond the pale of acceptable behavior. Some type of people get furious about criticism and apparent rejection and pop off. Then escalate when called out on it. Think Jim SND had a similar experience over the same guy wanting to set up stakes card games or somewhat at a momeet. Jim was a gentleman but finally went nuclear which was awesome in the same way a mushroom cloud occurs after a large explosion leaves the target incinerated. Scary but a thing of beauty at the same time. AOP tried to warn Qdpsteve repeatedly about skating on thin ice but some people can't take a hint I guess. Sorry again it happened and I missed it or I would have said something at the time. Have a good evening. Posted by: whig's phone at December 05, 2025 12:15 AM (O9Mur) 418

Mom told me, that the first Christmas after she & Dad were married-- they spent the holiday at Grandma's house (Dad's widowed mother) and set up her tree with the old-style candle holders.
Grandma put the little candles on, and they lit the tree. Let them burn for just a minute and extinguished all. Mom said it was truly enchanting to see! And oh, so very dangerous. But she treasured that memory & wished they had a camera then, even though it likely would not have captured the totality of awesomeness. Posted by: JQ at December 05, 2025 12:20 AM (rdVOm) 425

1. His middle name is "Patsy" 2. He was an extra on the set of "The Fall Guy". Neighbors say he is Autistic. When arrested he admitted his guilt: His statement to FBI agents: "Don't hurt my doggie".

When I was a yute a person could buy a permit from the park service and go into the national forest and cut down one tree and bring it back home. (I’m sure that’s not allowed any more). One year my dad got such a permit and we drove up near Flagstaff to find and capture the perfect Christmas Tree. It was a lot of fun, we didn’t see snow often at all, and I remember sliding down an icy hill with no board, just my pants, and catching a hidden rock with my crotch halfway down. Good times, good times.
Of course Dad did a Griswold and tied a tree onto the roof that was longer than the car, and we drove two hours back that way. And my mom just looked at him when he finally had to face the puzzle of how to get a 14 foot tree through an 8 foot door. It was a lovely tree, though.

My oldest brother and several of his college friends bought surplus jeeps in crates in the late 60s. Of course had mods they added (roll bars, which as it turned out got used during probably well lubricated rowdy nights out in the desert after geology stuff was done for the day). I remember "helping" him build it (simple menial stuff that needed doing).
These were the days when M1s were in barrels at the gun store for probably $70 or something. And as 8th graders we would walk down a main street to a quarry to shoot a Springfield rifle, zero notice or interest by anyone. As they say nowadays, a proper country.

George R.R. Martin claims that pet turtles were the origin of Game of Thrones. He had a bunch of 'em when he was a kid, and they kept dying. So, weird kid that he was, he started making up stories about them murdering each other in sinister plots.
Maybe someone should buy him a few turtles so he can finish the damned series. Who am I kidding? He's never going to finish the series. He's got cubic money from the TV show and can spend the rest of his life searching for his penis in his rolls of fat. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at December 05, 2025 01:19 AM (IG3/x) 505

Enjoy it, the Moon won't be this high again for another 18.6 years. I say "high". What this means is the Moon's orbital plane is at it's highest inclination with respect to earth's equatorial plane. This is the "nodal precession" cycle, causing the Moon's inclination to alternately add and subtract from the earth's axial tilt. Anyway, last summer, the full Moon was about as low in the sky as it can get. When that tilt is high, the full Moon can take it's extremes of altitude in the local sky.

Penguins will continue to maintain their indestructible resolve to be free and prosperous, and vigilance will never cease. After all, everyone remembers the barbarous legacy of Penguin Facts' predecessor organization, Great Auk Verities. And fair warning to the Spheniscidaphobes: we are not some pusillanimous, Nosferatu-faced race of bug eating, flying rats, skulking in the darkness, admired by a handful of twisted chiropteraphiles. We are legion, as are our friends and allies, and we march ever forward, to victory,

Nazi plans to drop their heavily armed top secret Pinguinfalljagers into London were derailed when it was discovered that penguins can not fly. Test drops from 10,000 feet showed that the hardy seabirds could withstand the freezing temperatures easily, but the glide ratio calculated by German experts proved to be disastrously wrong.

Who can tell these days. Posted by: Its Go Time Donald When they're little calves, like the two dozen or so recently born here, they run and play like cute dogs. Which is always ironically amusing, considering how after a short while, they don't run and play anymore. But last month, when a mama cow and several calves walked across the cattle guard into the living area, and we went out in the little red pick-em-up to herd them back, mama at one point got to jump and run surprisingly lively. Livelyly? But if you don't think bulls can jump, visit a rodeo. https://youtu.be/gu21Tpdtn38 Posted by: mindful webworker - and there's that one that jumped over the moon... at December 04, 2025 07:54 PM (XWUig) 89

There was a car called a Jupiter, made in England by Jowett. A character in a Marlowe novel has one. They were well thought of, got good mileage and handled well, but their business was choked off by Britain's early 1950's high car tax -- two thirds of the price of the car tacked on. They liquidated at a profit, and sold their plant to International Harvester.

Posted by: the way I see it ----- You what a killer is ? Freezing to death in Michigan winter. Sweating your balls for 2/3 months in summer with no A/C is easy. Even few weeks when the overnight low might be in the 100s. Blah, blah, blah. Used to have to cut wood and split it for wood burning stoves on the winter... once i moved out folks got a gas burner... and A/C not long after that.

Spend the summer in Austin before you spend money on a move. Those 11 months will give you a much more realistic idea of what to expect.
Considering the whole of Texas, I think the zone between Austin and San Antonio is probably the best climate in the entire state. Don't get the hurricanes, next to no ice or snow, tornados nothing like the north half. Fairly predictable weather year-round. OTOH, East Texas around Gilmer / Longview has "seasons", its generally cooler, but that means nothing because of the humidity is downright oppressive. But I have A/C everywhere and its only August/September when its too oppressive to go on bicycle rides or run. The limestone lakes in the Hill Country are fairly clear compared to the murk in ETX. But ETX has the water and the trees so I like it here better than anywhere else in the State. Posted by: Unknown Drip Under Pressure at December 04, 2025 09:48 PM (a4flb) 312

Meanwhile, left-wing judges insist that Republicans aren't allowed to do the same, Because Racist. The Supreme Court "took note" of California's similar manuever and decided, by 6 to 3, that no, it's not (D)ifferent when (D)emocrats do it any longer. The Supreme Court said Thursday that Texas can use its new gerrymandered House map in the upcoming midterm elections, likely yielding as many as five additional seats for Republicans in the battle for control of the House. ... By an apparent 6-3 vote, the justices granted an emergency request from Texas officials to block a lower court ruling thatI think this means the Supreme Court will finally overturn the leftwing-judge-made "law" that states are required to use racial criteria to maximize minority "representation."

If Pennsylvania eventually gets a Republican Governor, they can do the same. Currently the Republicans control the State Senate and the Higher Legislature as well as the AG.
Previously, the Republicans tried to re-district and the PA Supreme Court shot it down (illegally). But, this USSC decision would circumvent the PA Supreme Courts interference. Posted by: Orson at December 04, 2025 06:38 PM (dIske) 8

Does Texas really have the right to separate into a total of four states? The donks would probably gerrymander the whole thing to make sure that each state contained a major donk city (Central Texas, Austin, Southern Texas, Houston, etc.). Maybe it would be possible to create one state, shaped rather like a colon, that included most of the liberal enclaves.

"The paradigm has completely changed in news, and we have so much opinion that the truth doesn’t hold value anymore. And what we end up doing is we, as consumers, trying to find the truth—we can’t find good old-fashioned facts. And it distresses me so terribly.” “CBS is a whole different organization than I had worked for. CBS has now been taken over, thanks to greedy owners, Shari Redstone partnering with David Ellison, Larry Ellison’s son. And their greed has caused the venerable CBS to actually disassemble, to crash into crumbles. I don’t know what to call Bari Weiss. I don’t even know. I just don’t know."

The statement that Prop 50 was amended IS NOT CORRECT.
AUTHORIZES TEMPORARY CHANGES TO CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT MAPS IN RESPONSE TO TEXAS' PARTISAN REDISTRICTING. LEGISLATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. Requires temporary use of new congressional district maps through 2030. Directs independent Citizens Redistricting Commission to resume enacting congressional district maps in 2031. Establishes policy supporting nonpartisan redistricting commissions nationwide. Fiscal Impact: One-time costs to counties of up to a few million dollars statewide to update election materials to reflect new congressional district maps. This is what was on the ballot. This is what was voted on. It pretty clearly states it is not amending the Constitution, but ignoring it. Yes, they use legislative slight of hand to try to gloss over the blatant unconstitutional power grab... but the wording on the BALLOT is what was voted on, which allows the legislature to ignore the Calif. Constitution. Posted by: Romeo13 at December 04, 2025 07:04 PM (mP0Kj) 67

I missed the WH Christmas decoration thread but I’m a colored light guy. First I just like it better but the other reason is multiple white lights are used year round on any number of buildings so I can’t wrap my head around white lights signifying Christmas.
Posted by: the way I see it at December 04, 2025 06:42 PM (KDPiq) The white represents the snow, or the sparkle of snow when light hit it, or so they tell me anyway. Yeah, it can be overdone though. I use both white and colored lights, especially on the tree. The white for the brightness, and the color for the color. Works great, almost like colored lights on a tree with snow. At the old house I used white and red outside on the light post out front for that candy cane thing. This house has the columns under the gable by the front door, and that will get the same treatment IF I can get the outside outlets installed in time. Nothing but white though, yeah thats a bit sterile, but I have seen it done pretty nice. Posted by: Berserker-Dragonheads Division at December 04, 2025 07:08 PM (snZF9) 79

Posted by: El Mariachi - Attorney at Law at December 04, 2025 08:15 PM (C3IAS) A Refugee Group Was Repeatedly Warned That the Killer of the National Guardswoman Was "Spiraling" Into "Mania," But No Official Action Seems to Have Been TakenA refugee group was repeatedly warned that the National Guardsmen assassin was "spiraling" into mental illness but apparently no law enforcement or immigration courts were alerted. A leading national refugee agency was warned multiple times that the Afghan terror suspect accused of murdering one National Guard member and critically injuring another was spiraling into mania and mental illness beginning in 2023, according to a bombshell email leak. Despite this, and an alleged failure to maintain his mandated contact with state social services, he still managed to win asylum in April of this year. Rahmanullah Lakanwal's behavior was so disturbing that a local community advocate reached out to a refugee organization for help, according to emails to the US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI) seen by the Associated Press. "Rahmanullah has not been functional as a person, father, and provider since March of last year [2023]. He quit his job that month, and his behavior has changed greatly," the community member wrote in January 2024. The community member said he feared that Lakanwal had become suicidal.And I guess Washington State didn't alert anyone, either. Trump announced another step to control immigration: work permits will only be issued for 18 months at a time, instead of the five years they're currently issued for. That means that fraudsters will have to interact with government officials more often, and hopefully more fraud will be discovered and more badly-behaving "asylum seekers" will be kicked out.

She constantly talks about their brutality and how Pakistan deported them en masse and put up massive border walls to keep them out. I don't think Afghans need brainwashing. They are just so medieval that they go nuts outside of a their natural goat-infested habit. That and they are expected to not murder people on a regular basis.

Why would anyone expect anything different? That murderer was part of the "tribe" and they protect members of the tribe against anyone not in the tribe. The middle east and south east asia are for the most part tribal based. If you are not part of the tribe you are either an enemy or a potential victim.

Ya know, I have to dust off Ayaan Hirsi Ali's autobiography again because Im sure there's a section about when she first moved to The Netherlands was and was bewildered at how neat and clean and law-abiding and orderly it was. Every Muslim is taught that Islam is the true path, believers are naturally superior and rejecting Islam means society ends up in darkness and chaos. But she (and others like her she noted) had to flee to an infidel country and it was obviously far superior to their native shitholes and alot of Muslims just couldn't handle it mentally. Being confronted with their own obvious inferiority broke something in a lot of them. With her it made her realize Islam is bullshit. Others retreated into delusion or lashed out violently.

I like both types of lights. We have white, because I have fake trees, and the brand I bought back in the day only came with white ones. They are certainly very tasteful. The next tree I get will have both options. Sometimes you want that festive look. And yes, grew up working class, if not actually poor by some standards. Didn't have electricity or indoor plumbing til I was 10, in 73. Didn't feel poor at all.

Melania looks the epitome of resplendent. A shining, glowing beauty. Sure, it helps being a billionaire, but she has perfect refined taste in decor, dress and manner. She's almost ethereal.

When I grew up, real lights were colored. They required work to maintain and clip to tree (they were heavier)
The white lights came when the cheap LED came out. Because they were cheap people could buy and use more, and they looked "elegant" but they were a convenience and not a luxury. Ace may see them as "upper class," but they were for people who didn't want to spend the time and effort, so they were fake and cheap. You could wrap them around a tree in minutes without clipping. It is like saying "do you like crocs or handmade leather shoes?"

Okay, Christmas tree lights. Long ago (galaxy far far away), my aunt would do a beautifully decorated tree with mostly white lights, and a few blue lights to accent. Some evil nephew (I assure you that it couldn't POSSIBLY be myself) would surreptiously install "one red light" amongst the otherwise "perfect" tree lighting.

While mother was in the assisted living center and not ambulatory, she was wanting those four foot high bogus trees that adorned the front porch of her former home. Had all the lights and a timer built-in, but the cats pissed them all up and there was no way I was going to store them or bring them in. Off to Wallymart where in the Trailer Trash section of the store, were these light fiber really bogus looking three foot tall "trees" that were constantly changing in colors in the hundreds of strands. Absolutely hideous and a mockery of Christmas decorations - so I bought three of them. Day 1: "Are you kidding?" Day 3: The cares love them - I love them too. Jan 2nd: She gives them to the cares.

Colored lights 100%. White lights are for people who no longer profess to be Christians or who are embarrassed by their Christianity, or afraid to proclaim it loudly.

Colored lights 100%. White lights are for people who no longer profess to be Christians or who are embarrassed by their Christianity, or afraid to proclaim it loudly.
When you go from colors to white, the next step is no lights; in other words, the erasure of the holiday. Posted by: CloseTheFed Say what?

A group in my old town used to put out luminaries along the roads in various neighborhoods around town.

My Dad, though, loved blue and green. He had strings of the old timey bulbs, and took the time to make sure they were blue, green, etc. Mom had a ton of very old ornaments, many of them works of art. Not sure who get those now that she has passed away. We always got a real tree. Dad was like Clark Griswold without the malignant narcissism.

It bothered me the one in the children's playroom with the train going around it we weren't allowed to touch the train or the decorations. That just seems silly.
Why would you put that in a room with children, unsupervised? Posted by: CaliGirl I was visiting my sister and they had a train set for their son.

Back in the day we had those large multi colored lights that had bulbs you could replace. Yard was 200' wide and I'd light up from one end to the other. Gate on driveway got some detail and of course the house had a lot of lights. You could tell what day of the year consumed the most electricity because DanMa'am kept the lights on all night so Santa Claus could find the house.

Again the big decision is whether to put up the small Lionel O scale layout around the tree (locomotive and a few cars repaired 10 years ago, transformer original still working). Mostly do it if we're going to have guests but recent years ends up we don't have many guests during "the season". So indolence has a strong argument to pass on it.

When they did candles on the tree, the tree was cut right before Christmas. It didn't get a chance to dry out. One year, we did candles on a little tree in the front yard. That was fun. It was raining a bit, so we didn't even have to worry about fire.

I had tossed the big multi colored lights and had new strings of white lights and others of blue lights to start with. I had twice as many whites as blues.

I didn't mind the Biden-era Christmas at the White House. The Nutcracker tap-dancers were better than seeing Mrs. Doctor toddling around in fishnet stockings and a dress made out of Christmas-themed upholstery.
I really enjoyed when HGTV or the like used to do "Christmas at the White House" but I'm not sure they still do it. Even Mrs. Obama was relaxed and charming, especially the last one when her little nephew joined her and was sooo excited about the team of horses bringing the tree.

Double checked. Yes, the old tinsel was made of lead. Banned in the US in 1972. The strips were pressed flat, and while it didn't have the sparkle of tinsel now it was more of a subdued shine. It was also heavy enough to hang pretty straight. Our family had switched by the mid 60's I think. The "new" tinsel is easier to reuse, the lead stuff usually ended up as a lump by year three.

Thankful class is back in the WH and the circus tent of trans and other weirdos has closed up and gone away.
I also grew up with colored lights and tinsel on our tree, but think we've always had tiny white ones. No tinsel. Our tree is up but the lights are not on.Have collected an ornament a year since we got engaged (197 On a whim I bought old crystal chandelier "icicles" from etsy this year. Because I felt like it and want some sparkle. It could look wacko, and I think there's only 10 or so and I will admit failure if it looks tacky. We have a nice fake tree vs the real ones we used to buy. This way I can leave it up as long as I want, typically after the Epiphany. It will take me a day or so to decorate the house. Not tomorrow after noon as a certain baby princess will be bossing me around. He did put the lit wreaths on the front doors so we don't look like demented heathens with the autumn wreaths still up.

White lights. Warm, not cool. I am still finishing my home tree, I have tied so many bows at this point, I think I may just throw them at the tree and where they fall is where they fall. Lol. I have put ribbon up and taken it down 5 times now. As I sit here and discuss it with y’all, I think my issue is I put my background, looks like it’s bouncing through the whole tree ribbons first, and then fit in the statement over top, which is messing up the symmetry of the bouncing ribbon. So it’s absolutely backwards, but I am going to take the bouncing ribbon out, but the statement bows in, and then put the bouncing ribbon back in. Will add the picks/ florals and hit the decorations after. Okay, thank you again for talking that through with me!

Posted by: one hour sober ======== Most of the YT video intros can be skipped. I already knew about the case from the district and appellate review. Simply put, it was grandstanding bullshit by MO and patently unconstitutional in its reach. Basically if federal government has a power to enforce this or that law, acting to try to prevent it by states or local governments acting on individuals including state and local officials that do try to cooperate is unconstitutional because of the Supremacy Clause. So far, under Miller and later decisions, Scotus has specifically allowed Congress to regulate firearms. You can argue that Scotus got it wrong or press for legislative redress (Congress is under no obligation to pass regulations on firearms), but clearly that is the current understanding of the court that the 2A permits fedgov to regulate. And that same court has also restricted states from fully limiting firearms in the later Heller and MacDonald cases. Posted by: whig at December 04, 2025 05:50 PM (WDjG6) 429

A few years ago I wanted to buy Christmas lights. I knew immediately what I wanted: LED lights (low-power, don't get super hot), multi-color, twinkling. I found that Target had many different various kinds of Christmas lights, and one of them was what I wanted. (It turns out that only some of the lights twinkled... I think 2/3 don't and 1/3 do twinkle. It's enough, the twinkling is nice but not overwhelming.)
So we bought like 7 of them. Our Christmas tree is colorful and gently twinkling every year. I really like it. Maybe solid white would be higher class but who cares? I'm a Moron, I don't need to class-signal. P.S. If you want lights like this, we got them at Target and they are "Wondershop" brand.

Posted by: Retired Buckeye Cop ===== Has to do with a Missouri state constitutional amendment that prevented state and local officials from cooperating with fedgov on firearm investigations plus allowed MO citizens affected by investigations to sue those officials that did. Basically the same idea behind the Sanctuary cities and states on immigration and so on. Very much not surprised that Scotus and the DoJ were not going to let that stand as it has implications for any federal, state, and local cooperation broadly on investigations. Like it or not, if fedgov has the power to regulate, then its regulation is supreme over that of states and localities and that includes inducing aid from state or local officials even if the state as a whole or locality as a whole forbid it.

Colored lights all the way. That's what we grew up with. When Dad was making serious money, we moved to an upperclass neighborhood where EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE, had a single white candle in every window, and white lights on their Christmas trees (almost always real ones).
I got so bored with the monochromatic scheme that now I go nuts in my own house, with all colored lights on the tree, on the bushes outside, around the porch roof, and on the walkway to the garage. And I have strings of the big fat C-9 incandescent bulbs, too: inside, incandescent, but outside, mostly LEDs. Only thing is, when it snows, the LEDs can't melt it, so they get covered. I love Christmas. Posted by: Beverly at December 04, 2025 06:11 PM (Epeb0) 440
I lived in Manhattan for many years, and used to love the window displays (animated miniatures) in Saks, B. Altman's, and Macy's. And of course the giant tree in Rock Center.
But over the years, NYC stopped using traditional Christmas lights of red/green/gold, and started using almost entirely blue and white ones. sigh Posted by: Beverly at December 04, 2025 06:13 PM (Epeb0) 441

Seriously, I’m a colored lights person, and they blink and flash in a random pattern. My wife came from a slightly more well to do family, and she decorated in white lights. After we married, I convinced her to go with colored lights, but it wasn’t easy. Ace may be right about socio-economic factors in Christmas decoration preferences.

White lights, but not those eye-searing 6700k things. They are ok for outdoor displays, like icicle lights, but indoor, and especially on a tree, much warmer - 3000 - 4000k. Soft monochrome lights are nice, or even a non-garish pattern of 2 or 3 colors, but, please, no dancing-weenie sweeping, strobing, swirling stuff on an indoor CHRISTMAS tree. Outside?

Posted by: Wild Bill Hickok at December 05, 2025 01:11 AM (AmOQg) Another of Biden's "Fully Vetted" Afghan Heroes Arrested for Terrorismsuch alliesICE on Wednesday arrested yet another Afghan migrant brought into the country under former President Biden's troubled "Operation Allies Welcome" -- this time a man Homeland Security officials say was tied directly to ISIS-K. Agents took Jaan Shah Safi into custody just outside Washington, marking the latest example of a resettlement effort critics warned from the start would import national-security threats into American communities. Safi arrived in Philadelphia on September 8, 2021, during the Biden administration's massive Afghan airlift, a rush job that moved nearly 190,000 people into the U.S. with barely any vetting. According to ICE, Safi provided support to ISIS-K and the Islamic State's Iraq network, and even supplied weapons to his father, a militia commander back in Afghanistan. After entering the U.S., he filed for Temporary Protected Status -- a request that fell apart when DHS Secretary Kristi Noem ended TPS for Afghans, exposing how many people the Biden team had waved through without knowing who they were. "Today, our heroic ICE officers arrested Jaan Shah Safi, a terrorist who provided material support to ISIS-K," Noem said, blasting Biden's resettlement operation as "disastrous" and pointing out that Safi was picked up only miles from where National Guard members Sarah Beckstrom and Andrew Wolfe were ambushed days earlier. That attack, carried out by Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, left Beckstrom dead and Wolfe in critical condition -- yet another case tied directly to Biden's program. The pattern hasn't stopped. On November 25, authorities in Fort Worth arrested Mohammad Dawood Alokozay after he allegedly posted a TikTok video hinting at a terror plot. Like Safi and Lakanwal, Alokozay entered the United States because of Operation Allies Welcome.

3, we should further ignore the then-latest Afghan terrorist's Islamic radicalism, because, you see, we don't know if he was radicalized in Afghanistan or radicalized here.

How can you really "vet" these guys? Serious question.
They're 8th century savages from a 4th world country with no records, no real infrastructure, and an entire culture built around infiltration and destruction. There's no way to do effective background checks on savages like this. And even if you somehow could, it's been proven that these animals can be radicalized on a dime. Hell, even American citizens have been radicalized in short order. We could be letting in one of the few "moderate" Afghans, but 6 months after they get here they get Heismanned on tinder and start stabbing people. I think the GOP is falling into a "vetting" trap, when the correct answer is that we don't want any of these CHUDs. Posted by: Elric The Blade at December 04, 2025 01:16 PM (iFTx/) 31

Pre 9/11 I knew little about islam other than that for 1500 years they had expanded and genocided their neighbors, and many still wanted to do that.
I thought all that oil money was a problem, and we should have never allowed that. Post 9/11 I understood and accepted that we had a problem. It was not "reformable" and in fact, Christianity needed a reform away from our weak and tolerant ways. We needed to accept that much (not all) of the non-Christian world was evil and they wanted us dead. to be continued. (i really do have a point here.)

I hope DeSantis went on to say that if the companies in FL hired illegals without verifying them and now have no workers, that is their own little red wagon; and in any case that will open up hundreds or thousands of jobs for American citizens.
Personally I think the companies that hired illegals, knowingly or unknowingly (as if they could *not* know when the applicant speaks no English), deserve huge crippling fines. And the CEOs should go to jail. This will naturally encourage other companies to avoid doing this.

But I am kinda leaning toward the theory that the recent actual National Guard murderer was threatened by the Taliban that they would torture and murder his family if he didn't attack the Great Satan.

So I figured that when Bush and the DC clowns worked with muslims, "boy, that's dangerous but I am sure they know what they are doing and understand that every devout muslim wants every non-muslim dead." I accepted that sometimes you have to deal with the devil to get one up on them. point -- I now understand that the DC clowns are not only naive, but they are in league with our enemies. They are our enemies and they understand that once these people enter the country we have no defense and no way to remove them. The West has to abandon tolerance (equality, freedom, for those who despise us) and go full reconquista and inquisition. Spain could do that because the King said so.

61 One of Trump’s first executive actions of his second term was to issue clemency to the nearly 1,600 defendants accused or convicted of “offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.” It remains to be seen whether Cole’s lawyers will try to argue that their client is covered by Trump’s proclamation.

So this is the third "American Dad" of Asian Persuasion that has been involved in "Mostly Peaceful" demonstrations?
We have the National Guard murderer. And days later, there was one "Mohammad Dawood Alokozay", doing a bomb threat on TikTok. Apparently, his legal right to stay in the US expired just weeks before, too. I guess the good news is, we have adults at the DOJ and other agencies who are actually looking into this crap, rather than putting a rug over it like the previous presidency. Who then put rugs over the dead bodies caused by packs of lone wolves whose motives and chants of "We'll kill you!" could never be determined as to intent or danger.

Just not by us regular humans. At some point, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is the Christ. And that includes every Muslim. But Jesus is also going to burn the world first, and kill off the vast majority of bad people, which likely will take out a whoooole lot of Muslims, along with various corrupt others too.

Posted by: SimoHayek --------------------- I know a lot of people believe this. I am not studied enough to interpret the texts and have an opinion. I feel like most of the time when this is discussed it is like the guy on a desert Island when he dies and goes to heaven and God says "what do you mean, I sent two boats and a helicopter."

Bidens band of the lower lifeforms on earth is starting to be uncovered
Posted by: Spurwing Plover at December 04, 2025 06:15 PM (wGqjj) Bondi, Pirro, Bongino Crow About J5 Bomber Arrest, Note That Biden Allowed the Case to "Languish"A lot of celebrating from the beleaguered DOJ leadership. ... Federal agents swarmed the Woodbridge, Va., home of 30-year-old Brian Cole Jr. following the break in the case that has vexed and embarrassed the FBI for nearly five years. "You're not going to walk into our capital city, put down two explosive devices and walk off into the sunset," bureau Deputy Director Dan Bongino, who has made the case a priority since taking office in March, told reporters at an afternoon news conference. "Not gonna happen. "We were gonna track this person to the end of the earth. There was no way he was getting away." Authorities did not publicly indicate any motive for the crime, with one high-placed FBI source rejecting earlier claims that Cole may have had "anarchist" leanings.That's just one FBI source "rejecting" that. We'll see. There were also "sources" that denied that Tyler Robinson was a gay furry. That cell phone data was all available to Biden and Wray -- but they didn't sift through it. Or... did they? A neighbor said this guy had "unusually short legs" and a simple gait analysis would prove or disprove his culpability. So Gait Analysis re-enters the chat. Bondi says the case "languished" under Biden. I want a full investigation of the "investigation" that Biden and Wray did.
Update: Chuck Ross also wonders why the cell phone data didn't point to this guy sooner:
I don't think he's MAGA, Brian:

Sammi🦋 @PatriotSammi · 22h #ICE Eastern Air getting shackles ready for van loads of deportees yesterday at MSP, Minneapolis, St Paul. It was 15* F w/wind chill 6* These chains connect deportees’ wrists to their waist and holds their ankles together. In the event of depressurization, they cannot reach for oxygen masks and likely would have difficulty evacuating in the event of an incident on the ground. This is another example of the cruelty shown by ICE. Posted by: beckster at December 04, 2025 02:48 PM (I7J98) 14

Is Michelle Malkin a Trump fan?

That would surely be enough to cool my ardor for sticking my neck out. Posted by: Paco at December 04, 2025 02:50 PM (mADJX) 18

I haven't heard from her in ages. - Bulg The last I heard of her engaging in anything of a political nature was when she went with a group out to Portland or Seattle or some such place to show support for the police when Antifa was getting particularly destructive - and she and her friends got assaulted by Antifa while the cops stood by and watched. That would surely be enough to cool my ardor for sticking my neck out. Posted by: Paco at December 04, 2025 02:50 PM (mADJX) Yeah. Michelle served her hitch, she deserves some peace and quiet.

I just read an interview with that college girl that got deported. Wow. She was going to school in Boston with a scholarship (why didn't this at least go to a legal immigrant) . She had money enough to buy a plane ticket to surprise visit her family in Texas and afford to live in Massachusetts. Also for someone that has been here for so long and is in college...she speaks English quite poorly. I imagine ABC could only clean it up so much.

"Four years, 10 months, and 28 days ago, an individual placed a bomb in the vicinity of both the RNC and the DNC, and for that amount of time, that individual evaded accountability."
-------------- The "bombs" were #Fake and non-operational -- more PsyOps. [WILLOWED:] Nobody's explained -- and the MDM-MSM Progda Enemedia and AutoPen Empire were strangely uncurious and not ranting about -- why (1) Kamala was @ DNC HQ where a (#Fake) "pipe bomb" was instead of The Capitol for the electoral vote certification on J6, and (2) how she was in danger of "assassination." Clearly, Plan B was to use the bomb threat to the VP-"Elect" as proof of the "far right" Trumpets' intention to steal the election by preventing certification -- and shut it down prematurely. However, the Plan A Fedsurrection outside The Capitol was a (pun intended) "roaring" success -- eliminating the necessity of Plan B.

Posted by: Oldcat at December 04, 2025 03:41 PM (8avO+) There's nothing graphic about that video. It shows, purportedly, Robinson running across the roof, getting to the edge, tossing the duffle bag, then jumping down. Some have suggested, because he sort of limps away, that the rifle might have been stashed in his pants, rather than disassembled in the duffle bag. I suppose that's possible. Doesn't appear so to me. I think the limp was because jumping off a roof hurts. Posted by: BurtTC at December 04, 2025 03:50 PM (QKRS9) 356

I just learned the bombs had a 9v battery on board. So wind-up timer might have been a feature rather than a distraction. But no explanation why they didn't go off.
Posted by: torabora at December 04, 2025 03:29 PM (KtOUo) The wind-up timer acts as a time switch, and the 9V battery supplies the juice to ignite the primer. In theory, at any rate. If he was making his own primers, they may have been faulty. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at December 04, 2025 03:54 PM (npFr7) 362
63 answer me this:
were the pipe bombs real, or were they props, dummies Posted by: Don Black at December 04, 2025 03:00 PM (iEkGv) Yes. There's a deceptive half-truth in calling them "viable" explosive devices, which just means that the three ingredients were all present -- material, detonator, trigger -- and they could be made to explode. However, the available evidence indicates that would have to be done manually on the spot, and might even require some jiggering by one who knows how. The trigger device was a short kitchen timer, and they were left overnight; so at a minimum the timers were not set before the devices were placed, and there's frankly no reason for us to believe that they were even hooked up correctly in the first place. There is an eyewitness who falsely claimed to have seen that the timer on one was set for 20 minutes or whatever; but in one photo it can be seen that only the innards were there, and it was one of those cheapies where the clock dial is on the case. So, that was a lie, which means we cannot trust anything. They could also have been flat-out lying about the devices being viable, instead of a deceitful technical truth.

You forget, Chris Wray said, before congress:
“some of the phone data that could have helped authorities track down who was responsible for the pipe bomb was ‘corrupted’ and ‘unusable.’ What the FBI did was fucking simple - they didn't give up. Kask Patel got the resources and the people to unscramble and track the cell data. That got them the suspect, and the shoe receipt. That got them the warrant and the arrest. The Wray FBI deprioritized it and essentially gave up. The Trump FBI didn't. That is the story here. Posted by: El Mariachi - Attorney at Law at December 04, 2025 04:29 PM (C3IAS) 367

soothsayer (or anyone),
here's an extreme difficulty 80s lyric question. In the background of the chorus, a woman speak-sings in a droning overdub to the main vocal: "Must I beg you?" Posted by: ace at December 04, 2025 02:06 PM (1wjle) T'Pau's 'Heart and Soul'? Because I love that song. Posted by: Mark Andrew Edwards, buy ammo at December 04, 2025 02:08 PM (xcxpd) 57
here's the answer. This is also the original video for the song, which was never played in America. I think they did a whole new and more expensive video for the American release.
Bonus about the video: She does twirls at various points which lifts up her skirt and shows her butt, and it's a very cute little butt. https://youtu.be/shGFA3esqkY?si=zOKVi3ulDFAg5cf4 Posted by: ace at December 04, 2025 02:08 PM (1wjle) 58

No new evidence was produced. They found the guy using the same evidence that has been available to the FBI for 5 years.

OT:
To deal with California state government's collapsing finances, the government labor unions and usual hangers-on have come up with a Cunning Plan - have a one-time tax of 5% on all the assets of California billionaires. They claim that this would raise $100 billion. Remarkably, Gavin Newsom is opposing this, because he is running for President, and billionaires are useful when you are running for President. But it is a demonstration of one of the Two Great Lies that governments tell: "It's Only Temporary." and "Don't Worry, We're Only Going To Do This Just This Once." P.S. Newsom is busily explaining that the complete lack of reconstruction in Pacific Palisades is all Trump's fault. Posted by: The ARC of History! at December 04, 2025 02:16 PM (xTIDn) 104

Why would anyone think someone other than the government planted these fake bombs?

To deal with California state government's collapsing finances, the government labor unions and usual hangers-on have come up with a Cunning Plan - have a one-time tax of 5% on all the assets of California billionaires.
They claim that this would raise $100 billion. Posted by: Jackson at December 04, 2025 02:20 PM (J9q9v) Yeah, I remember when Jersey decided to tax sales of commercial trucks and aircraft.

The FBI MO is to put out "evidence" that is not really incriminating and to flood the zone with things that all add up to nothing.

My guess is that he realized that if he were to hand the list over to someone to vet, the process would have taken about four years. Posted by: Stephen Price Blair On a similar note, while arguing with people on Trump's narco boats strikes, someone asked why Trump pardoned Former Honduran President Juan Hernández if he's so absolutely ruthless on drug smugglers. I haven't seen an explanation really, just Trump saying he was "treated badly" by the Biden DOJ.

Clearly, Plan B was to use the bomb threat to the VP-"Elect" as proof of the "far right" Trumpets' intention to steal the election by preventing certification -- and shut it down prematurely.

Anarcho-syndicalism (old school based on the workshop model from the Paris Commune) declares that ultimate power vests in the labor organizations, and provide reasons for this Anarcho-socialism declares that power vests in a bureaucracy that guarantees distribution of benefits of society Anarcho-capitalism declares that power vests in the market forces alone. each one is different, but does declare where the source of overarching power comes from.

This is so interesting because of the people they found in a crowd but not this guy despite the Nikes. Is it because he isn’t MAGA but Antifa? Or child of a govt ee? Inquiring minds and all.

Can't wait to hear what the FBI has on him and how they zeroed-in on him after all these years.
They looked in the folder labeled "Contact info for guy we hired to pretend to plant bombs at DNC/RNC as part of J6 hoax." Totally reasonable that it was overlooked for so long. Posted by: I used to have a different nic at December 04, 2025 01:18 PM (ExV1e) 27

@nicksortor 🚨 BREAKING: The FBI has surrounded a home in Woodbridge, VA where alleged DC pipe bomber Brian Cole Jr., reportedly 33, was arrested this morning Cole seemingly has very little online presence, and has been described as an "anarchist" He's expected to be arraigned today. Kash Patel and Dan Bongino are in really deep doodoo. per the MFM. Yeahright. Posted by: Darrell Harris at December 04, 2025 01:18 PM (0CU3H) 32
I thought we decided the limping pipe bomber was a woman. Maybe now a furrie...I'm just throwing that in as everything is weird now.
I read somewhere it was not even a pipe bomb but a fake pipe bomb. However, I know not a whole lot. Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at December 04, 2025 01:18 PM (WONhk) 33

He could've been working for the PtB *and* decided to go extra spicy. And/or whoever gave him marching orders didn't know that's what he does.

"Number of Americans Who Closely Follow the News Crashes ....In 2016, 51 percent of U.S. adults said they closely followed the news. Today, that number has crashed to 36 percent. “People in every age group are less likely now than in 2016 to say they follow the news all or most of the time,” writes the far-left Pew Research. “But older Americans remain more likely than younger adults to do so.” “For example, 62% of adults 65 and older now say they follow the news all or most of the time. That’s down 13 percentage points since 2016,” adds the pollster. “The decline is similar — 12 points — among adults under 30.” Posted by: runner at December 04, 2025 01:34 PM (g47mK) 177

But there were also "facts" like the security video of the FBI guys seeing the bomb, acting like they knew it was a toy, not evacuating Kamala out of the building, etc. That strongly supported the "fake bomber" theory. If we now believe the bomber was real, how do we explain away these facts? Or the fact that the bomb was clearly fake (as has been reported several times)?

no we don't know this is the guy yet, but I don't see anything here that makes me doubt this Like I said, I think this goes back to the Epstein conspiracy, that he was running a large Eyes Wide Shut pedo operation in league with intelligence services. When Kash Patel and Dan Bongino failed to confirm that theory, they became liars and political enemies and nothing they say can be believed. Now they catch the J5 Bomber, and it's the same crap about two super-conservative MAGA supporters being secret enemies working for the deep state. it's exhausting. Posted by: ace at December 04, 2025 01:42 PM (1wjle) 234
Well, maybe. But there were also "facts" like the security video of the FBI guys seeing the bomb, acting like they knew it was a toy, not evacuating Kamala out of the building, etc. That strongly supported the "fake bomber" theory.
If we now believe the bomber was real, how do we explain away these facts? Or the fact that the bomb was clearly fake (as has been reported several times)? We have two theories, both of which are supported by actual facts, but both of which can't be true. Posted by: Elric The Blade at December 04, 2025 01:38 PM (iFTx/) Incorrect - both can be true. One bomb can be real - the one left by the RNC. One bomb can be fake - the one left by the DNC. You can have both scenarios, which makes more sense if it was planned b/c "oops, bomber must have made a mistake with the DNC one, only Rs died - oh well"...

Bludgeonspeak. I like it.
Bludgeonspeak is the use of invented terminology, or historical terminology that has been hijacked and corrupted, and then emptied of all meaning except as an attempt at moral blackmail. Here are some notable bludgeonspeak items in 2025: "racist", "fascist", "homophobe", "transphobe", "islamophobe", "far-right". Also, the term "genocide" might not be quite there yet, but it's being pushed in that direction pretty hard. Some bludgeonspeak terms, like "fascist" and "racist" and "genocide", used to have substantive meanings which have been destroyed by persistent abuse. It may be appropriate to recognize and use those meanings if you are reading or writing or speaking about history. Others, like "homophobe", "transphobe", and "islamophobe", were bludgeonspeak from birth. There are no circumstances in which these have substantive meaning, and it is unwise to treat them as though they do. https://is.gd/xYgRAo Posted by: Archimedes at December 04, 2025 01:48 PM (Riz8t) 274

One thing to remember about Plame, she was relevant to this because she was the one that suggested her husband to validate claims that Saddam was trying to buy yellowcake in Niger.
His investigation found that they were, but he then came back and wrote a story for the Post saying Shrub was lying. Somehow, this was not a violation of whatever agreement he signed with the CIA when Plame got him selected. Oh and at the time Joe Wilson was working for...Saudi Arabia. Informally but...openly. So Plame selected a Saudi agent she knew well to generate a story calling Shrub a liar. Seems like kind of an important detail no? Posted by: 18-1 at December 04, 2025 01:50 PM (sKqQm) 288

Epstein conspiracy, that he was running a large Eyes Wide Shut pedo operation in league with intelligence services. When Kash Patel and Dan Bongino failed to confirm that theory, they became liars and political enemies and nothing they say can be believed. Now they catch the J5 Bomber, and it's the same crap about two super-conservative MAGA supporters being secret enemies working for the deep state.
== Oh i get you. First. Epstein has gotta be some kind of op. A high school math teacher becomes billionaire is highly unlikely. But possible. But the add in all the political connections, the island and tbe young girls, the prince andrew stuff, the prior conviction, with a sweet deal, tha the us attorney later noted was related to epsteins relationship with intelligence community. He was for sure a tool of somebody. Deniable, but a tool. I dont think that patel or bongino are covering up. I just think there isnt a smoking gun to find. Its buried. Deep. For another 60 years at least. I dont have an opinion on this J5 guy, but i am skeptical of the five years, then there was the glenn beck weirdness on top, and now viola! Maybe it is the guy.

__ Well, 4 years under Biden* don't really count, so only about 11 months after a 4 year delay in starting an actual investigation. Posted by: Autopenis at December 04, 2025 01:49 PM (qUkBO) Actually about 3-4 months b/c it took awhile to get the DOJ and FBI heads in...and then a few more weeks/month to fire the current corrupt team...and then we had a shutdown. Okay, actually on that timeline, they probably solved this in 3-4 weeks of real time...

it's exhausting. Posted by: ace ======= The advantage to conspiracy theories is that is impossible to disprove without omniscience. Thus any apparently contrary evidence can via goal post shifting simply become new evidence for a larger conspiracy involving those providing the new information. And yes, eventually they become exhausting. That being said, the fact that the FBI, CIA, the DoJ, FISA court, Democrats including the President and former Sec of State invented out of whole cloth a Russia Russia conspiracy to spy on and thwart an incoming president is a conspiracy theory that proved to be true.

What possible motivation would there be for sinking a boat that *isn't* the Titanic for "insurance fraud"?
If you sink the Titanic on purpose and collect, you lose a big ass ship the bank owned anyway, and are up the settlement amount. If you sink some other ship instead, now you're out that ship, and the real Titanic itself which is now essentially scrap because you can't just say "Oh whoops nevermind here it is", can you? So instead of being down one ship, you're down two, with no relative upside beyond the difference between the settlement amounts. It doesn't even make sense internally as a conspiracy theory. It's just... silly. Like saying akshullly JFK was perfectly fine and it was Jackie O who got domed. A: No, what the fuck, and B: refer to A.

All I know is that the Biden Administration, the FBI, and the Intelligence community was desperate to highlight and frame the Jan 6 scenario as a microcosm of the MAGA movement so as to push away support for Trump and dissolve the movement overall.
If an anarchist, leftist moron enters the fray with fake bombs (which I might add the FBI tried to pass off as real and working) it destroys the narrative or at least dilutes it. As usual, I'm betting the actual event will not be the most important aspect of this whole thing. It will be the shaping and cover-up or what it really was. It will be interesting to see if the J6 committee has communication addressing this...and what that entails. Posted by: Orson at December 04, 2025 01:58 PM (dIske) 337

An oven timer, a pipe, and gunpowder is the photo. I reckon a few wires. Wylie Coyote style or the real deal?
Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat ======== My guess is a std. blackpowder pipe bomb which instructions used to be found in certain publications and later widespread on the internet. So in a sense, yes, blackpowder confined in a pipe can be somewhat dangerous as even static electricity sparks can set one off. But my gathering from the different reports is that on at least one of the 'bombs' that the timer was not set as they both used 60 minute kitchen timers and were apparently placed well before those 60 minutes expired. No way unless the bomber planned to revisit them for setting detonation later for them to explode. Dunno if either were defective, incomplete, or never actually hooked up but were meant to resemble a bomb for attention. The weird guy in Florida who had the pro Trump van had something like those that were not hooked up either and got sent to prison for it IIRC.

Now it appears that Luigi was caught in spite of the fact he was wearing a hoodie and a mask in McDonalds. Still, some people recognized him.

I heard his great grandfather was antifa and even went to war because of it. In theory he's already been pardoned by Trump.

Leaked report exposes massive mistrust and incompetence at FBI “Make an arrest to prove we aren’t incompetent!” -Kash Moneh. According to the FBI itself, NO NEW EVIDENCE was found to perpetuate this arrest. None, zilch, zero. That seems odd to me.

I was on the South loop in Houston. Traffic stops and I see some lady in right in front of me beating a guys f-150 with an umbrella. Guy gets out grabs the umbrella and throws it. The lady is a lunatic, screaming and then starts hitting the dude. He pushes her away. She’s got one of these, I dunno, page boy(?) wigs, makeup like a clown and the vanity license plate on her BMW, it reads NU something. I get out, and here comes Houston’s finest. Officer is trying to calm things down, take stories, etc. Another cop comes to me and asks if I saw what happened. Lunatic lady suddenly targets me and tells me not to speak to cop. Calls me some names. Then threatens me. So I start telling the officer what I saw, and I’m trying to piss her off. I tell him lady with NUTZONMYCHIN license plate was beating the guys truck with an umbrella. Cop is trying not to laugh, lady freaks, cop says “that’s not helpful”. So I then tell him it looks like she flipped her wig. Lady goes apoplectic because this thing on her head looks like a squirrel. Then I tell him I thought she might just be clowning around, and the circus was in town, but then she hit him and I figured it was real. Cop about lost it. lol.

Did the Trump administration let Flynn hang out to dry?
Posted by: the way I see it ========= Flynn was fighting to retract his guilty plea in the courts and Trump could not pardon him for fear of being impeached until very late in his first term. Part of Flynn's problem is both he and his son were apparently at risk for being charged as unregistered foreign agents for Turkey. Posted by: whig at December 04, 2025 02:05 PM (WDjG6) 370

Powell and Armitage remained quiet while Scooter was convicted of perjury when they could have told the truth. Posted by: Ashley Judd's Puffy Scamper at December 04, 2025 02:05 PM (k1E2D) 371
Self-monetization is key. Whatever Youtube itself gives you is nice, but should be treated like Social Security. Don't operate on the assumption that it will be there for you. Patreon, in-video ad reads, sponsored links, merch, that's where the real "I do this for a living" money comes from. The check from YT itself is the icing on the cake.

When I plugged in the address this morning, combined with the report of the guy's age, it was pretty obvious he was going to be living with the parents. Not too many 30year olds can afford a home like that in NoVa. By the way, bulg, his mom's realtor website is still up on the net. Or, it was a few hours ago. Very pretty and thin black woman.

The Britanic was used as a hospital ship painted white with Red Cross, which was supposed to be off limits to torpedoes. Its thought to have hit a mine. However its theorized that the Britanic was hauling munitions in it's hull, which is against the rules and contributed to it sinking so fast.
Posted by: Frank Barone at December 04, 2025 01:54 PM (IifOV) Well, we now know that Titanic had a real problem with brittle steel in the hull plates, that led to the collision damage from the iceberg being worse than one would expect. If Brittanic was a sister ship, stands to reason that its hull would be more vulnerable to mine damage than one built of less-brittle steel.

Just so everyone is clear on the facts. That 97.5% drop in sales was because - in order to "transition" to an only-EV line-up, Jaguar STOPPED MAKING NEW CARS. Completely. They stopped making cars. Once the stock on the dealer lots was gone, there was nothing for the dealers to sell.
My local JLR dealer dropped Jaguar and merely puts on their business cards "A certified Jaguar Service Center" but no longer sells Jags. Posted by: Defenestratus at December 04, 2025 12:14 PM (WYStd) 9

I can’t help but wonder if the popular meme “go woke go broke” is wrong.
Maybe it’s really “Go broke go woke” and maybe have collusion with outside entities to short the stock? It’s either that, or maybe some kind of subsidized jiggery-pokery? Sounds conspiracy theory yes, but no sane CEO or board of directors can possibly think that putting out a Mother’s Day.advertisement featuring a Tranny selling Gillette razors could possibly be a Great Idea! None. Not possible, unless they have some kind of plan. Because catering to a fraction of a single percentage point of mentally ill sex perverts and kiddie fuckers is way, way off the beam.

Just so everyone is clear on the facts. That 97.5% drop in sales was because - in order to "transition" to an only-EV line-up, Jaguar STOPPED MAKING NEW CARS. Completely. They stopped making cars. Once the stock on the dealer lots was gone, there was nothing for the dealers to sell.

You can’t blame the 97% drop in sales just on the advertising faggotry. It mainly due to the fact that Jaguar stopped making, um, any new cars.

Some more context to this firing.
Gerry Mc was also the lead designer behind everything in the Land Rover lineup since the 1st generation Evoque. It's been and *incredibly* successful brand in large part due to his design language he brought to the brand. Also, the new JLR CEO is an Indian from holding company Tata motors - and he's a notorious cheapskate cost-cutter. I'm told by JLR insiders that Gerry Mc often bristled at the new environment he worked in under the new CEO. Also, prior to designing cars at JLR, Gerry designed.... women's lingerie.

They wanted to crank up the price and were going to justify that by polishing their image? Jaguars already had an undeserved image because of James Bond. Their cars are better than Alfa Romeo and some Audis, but beneath the BMW 5 series and Mercedes E class. They're well known for coolant issues and overheating. They're well known for timing chain and tensioner failures. They have air suspension failure issues. They have electrical gremlins. Besides being an idiot for the gay fever dream nonsense, he's an idiot for trying to capture the ultra wealthy with cars that aren't as good as BMWs and Mercedes.

I've brought this up before, but pay attention to this line:
" Gerry McGovern, the architect of Jaguar’s 2024 woke ad and rebrand that caused a 97.5% sales collapse..." There is no way any company dependent on sales survives a 97.5% sales collapse, even if they are a subsidiary of something much larger. Jaguar at best will from now on just be a marquee nameplate for some of Tata's other divisions. For example, I can see a Luxury nameplate with a Jaguar nameplate on it. But nothing much more than that. Their great "all-EV" launch is never going to happen, the big new plant in the UK will never be completed.

Damn. Posted by: garrett Gotta be a record. Posted by: nurse ratched at December 04, 2025 12:26 PM (W2Pud) _______ It really wasn't a "sales" collapse. The company effectively went out of business. They shut down all sales of gas-powered cars, at a time when they had no EVs to sell either. So if a customer went into a Jag dealer and said "I'd like to buy a Jag," the response would be -- literally -- "sorry we don't have any cars to sell." And their latest EV has been delayed -- again -- and most likely will never see the light of day. The Indian owners and new Indian management will shitcan the EV dogshit and rush new gas-powered cars to market. They already have successful SUVs and crossovers selling as Land Rovers.

That was about as creepy as the weird ginger ex-prince on Colbert.What a jump scare on the UK DM that is today!
I did watch (twice) the weirdo walking above with the furry things on the bottom of his/her/sis/pan/I can't keep up's pants. So graceful, like a person walks when they desperately need the loo after a bad taco or sushi but are in public and hope they make it in time. I am praying every night this weird stuff stops because it's basically evil. Trans is the most evil. I ignored the ghey stuff too long, yet knew it was evil. Eyes wide open now, mate. I admit to dancing with a handsome ghey x-ray tech I knew at a ghey disco. Because we nurses (and student nurses like I was) would go dance there en masse after the "swing shift" or 3-11pm. My bf/now husband got in free. A ghey qween told me I was his competition and I had to pay. It was fun and this was a couple of years before AIDS...which forced me to think about it vs sissy men. I honestly did not dwell on the horrific stuff. Anyway, the fact that this sis/pan jackass got himself fired for putting strange and ugly people in ugly clothing to try to sell a product is very good and makes me happy.

It really wasn't a "sales" collapse. The company effectively went out of business. They shut down all sales of gas-powered cars, at a time when they had no EVs to sell either. So if a customer went into a Jag dealer and said "I'd like to buy a Jag," the response would be -- literally -- "sorry we don't have any cars to sell."

We're so edgy and transgressive in our matching generic experimental couture and manufactured androgynous looks. Y'all look pretty much the same. Nothing unique there at all.
——- It’s a uniform. Back in the 60s, someone commented “all the non-conformists look so alike, I can’t tell them apart.” This isn’t a grass-roots organic thing, neither was the Swingin’ 60s. Hair, dress, immediately set one apart from the “Squares”, as intended. Us vs. Them. Young versus old. “Make Love Not War”, fucking for peace! Free Love! In the 1980s the homosexuals in San Francisco howled at any suggestion that hygiene played a role in the spreading of AIDS. Hundreds or thousands of anonymous buggery partners was quickly determined to be the cause, but they claimed that venereal diseases were strikes against “sexual fascism” or somesuch.

The whole big picture is kind of funny in a macabre sort of way. You can't tell me that an Indian Conglomerate acquiring and taking over an historically well known British company (always associated with the UK) wasn't partially motivated by what the British did through the British East India Company starting in the 1600's and leading to the British Raj in the 1800's.
Sure, the Indian Conglomerate hoped to make money in the process, but I'm sure there was an underlying feeling of "How do you like it Lymie?" The funny part being that no one is making any money.

Keir Starmer and his Labour Government have been bragging about the new all-EV manufacturing plant that Jaguar was building in southern England, supposedly to open in '26, or '27. It was going to be the proof that their environmental netzero policies will did lead to new, high paying jobs.
heh. Btw - as of today, England now produces Zero automobiles. Even Rolls Royce has been sold to the Germans. They don't build any aircraft anymore either, although they do build a few spare puts for the Airbus models. They don't have any active coal mines anymore.

I like vintage Jaguars. During the plandemic we were in Sun Valley during Octoberfest. Back when people still had to wear masks in restaurants. Once I was finished eating I took our 2yr old grandson in his stroller outside to hang out. I taught him the streetlight colors and we were having a fine time. It does not take much to entertain me or a toddler, same mindset.
A couple drove up and parked to get take-out in a vintage Jag. The guy (who may or may not be famous but looked familiar) and I talked while his female passenger went inside. Blonde and good looking dude. I guessed correctly that his Jag was British Racing Green. He'd had it trucked in for his vacation as so precious. Probably from the 50's or 60's but I am no expert. I said, well, I would have ridden in it here the entire trip. Then added because I am a redneck and he laughed. Now that car I'd drive. The ones today are nothing special and look like other cars.

A bit of a different angle: the Land Rover subreddit seems to have liked him. I'm no car guy, so can't say.
Aside from the Jaguar rebranding fiasco, you can’t deny Gerry McGovern did a great job especially with the 2012-2025 Land Rovers/Range Rovers, they all look great Interesting play. Lose the guy that makes your cars the ones people want to buy despite every other factor against them. Or has Gerry been holding them back getting those other factors right the whole time? I like the new Defender, I just don’t like the ridiculously complicated engine setup…ticking $$$$ time bomb. As far as it depends on the Jaguar side, it’s deserved. As far as it depends on the money making side, it’s confusing unless you account for the rear end of the new Range Rover. Then I get that. Good he was an arrogant moron. he drank too cubing his own Kool-Aid and same out with the jaguar poc. (I don't understand, but it sounds negative and referenced Jaguar) Jag needs to sell boring SUVs so one day they may produce interesting coupes and sedans again. It's what saved Porsche from bankruptcy. With access to Land Rover models and knowledge, it makes sense.

Branding 101: Sell what you genuinely are, not what you think people want.
I can imagine Hyundai or Kia getting roasted, but getting away with the Jag tranny ad. They don't stand for anything besides utter failure in the 80's and a fairly profitable fast-follower model since their relaunch in the States. But Jaguar is elegance, heritage, history, English autos (for better or worse.) They have something to stand on and promote.

Just so everyone is clear on the facts. That 97.5% drop in sales was because - in order to "transition" to an only-EV line-up, Jaguar STOPPED MAKING NEW CARS. Completely. They stopped making cars. Once the stock on the dealer lots was gone, there was nothing for the dealers to sell.

291 Faguar and L. Rover are the most unreliable POS this world has ever experienced.
Posted by: Maj. Healey at December 04, 2025 12:52 PM (abIsI) Not anymore. Not with the Ingenium engines specifically. They have issues yes - but as long as you change their oil at 10k or less intervals, they have proven to be remarkably reliable. There are some Defenders out there that have more than 300,000 miles on them. The whole "Land Rovers are junk" came from a period in time before the current manufacturing process were put in place. The Rover V8 was largely a buick engine that was notorious for eating head gaskets. The early air suspension systems were problematic. These things are largely resolved in modern day LR. The Defender itself is made in Slovakia in a factory where assembly is 95%+ automated/robotic. Posted by: Defenestratus at December 04, 2025 12:59 PM (WYStd) 330

Just so everyone is clear on the facts. That 97.5% drop in sales was because - in order to "transition" to an only-EV line-up, Jaguar STOPPED MAKING NEW CARS. Completely. They stopped making cars. Once the stock on the dealer lots was gone, there was nothing for the dealers to sell. Posted by: Defenestratus ============ So to be clear on the facts, they're not making ICE cars at all anymore?

This reminds me a thread in the Canadian mini-series "Slings and Arrows", in which the CEO of a marketing company called "Froghammer" convinces the naive head of a theater festival to run a marketing campaign that deliberately insults the festival's patrons. In the end, Froghammer's CEO is found to be a lunatic, who is arrested and returned to the asylum from which he had escaped. With the Jaguar folly, once again life imitates art - except that here, the lunatic remains on the street searching for another enterprise to destroy.

That "97%" is misleading, they actually stopped making cars while they retooled from IC cars to EV cars. Grok has more: Jaguar's dramatic 97.5% sales drop in Europe—where just 49 vehicles were registered in April 2025 compared to 1,961 in April 2024—stems primarily from a deliberate strategic pivot rather than a sudden market rejection. The British luxury automaker, owned by Tata Motors, intentionally halted production of its entire internal combustion engine lineup (including models like the XE, XF, F-Type, and E-Pace) by the end of 2024 to transition to an all-electric, ultra-luxury brand. This left dealerships with minimal inventory, creating a temporary product gap with no new vehicles available until the debut of Jaguar's first EV flagship, expected in late 2025 or early 2026. Year-to-date sales through April 2025 fell 75.1% to 2,665 units, and globally, annual sales plummeted 85% from 180,833 in 2018 to 26,862 in fiscal 2024/25, reflecting the broader wind-down.

Prescient, that. The Stratford Festival went hardcore woke in 2017; in 2022 I received a personal email from the "Creative Editor" (??) disinviting me from purchasing tickets since I didn't like their new direction. By the end of that season they were giving tickets away at two for $15. Cheaper than a movie ticket.

Obviously this system hasn't seen significant combat, and until it is tested in many battles it will remain experimental. But the basic concept is sound, and while the devil is in the details, improvements in software speed and sensor technology will push this response down to the squad level very quickly. Drones have the capacity to do tremendous damage to technologically superior forces. Imagine a swarm of drones launched from near our B-2, B-52, or F-35 bases. A few hundred thousand dollars worth of easily procured hardware could conceivably destroy many billions of dollars worth of our almost irreplaceable weaponry in a matter of moments. This isn't World War II, where factories could produce thousands of tanks or planes each year. It takes about 18 months to build an F-35. How many can we afford to lose? While my personal preference is for a bunch of Midwestern goose hunters to be drafted into the armed forces for drone hunting duty, the future of laser defense is assured. Drones aren't going away, and must be considered an integral part of both offensive and defensive operations. It won't be long before those airbases are surrounded by a multi-layered defense system that includes lasers to defend against drones. The question is: what comes next? Laser weapons for infantry, or tanks, or helicopters? [Crossposted at CutJibNewsletter and X/Twitter]. If you folks who are on X/Twitter would follow us it would be much appreciated!

I don't understand how lasers can take out a swarm of 1000s of mini drones.

One of the challenges I can see for laser-based weapon platforms is ensuring that the system has power. But that would also be true of a ballistic system that relies on computational power for acquiring targets.
Drones just need enough power to reach their destination and deliver their payload. Posted by: "Perfessor" Squirrel at December 04, 2025 11:04 AM (ESVrU) 12

There are some pretty snazzy electromagnetic anti-drone devices out there. They fry the electronics to disable the drone. GPS jamming also affects the drone's ability to navigate.

As far as understand it, (I'm not a weapons researcher), lasers greatly suffer from a power issue affecting portability.
Very unlikely to get the "Phased Plasma Rifle in the 40 watt Range" anytime in the near future. But, on a warship, very doable. I'm not sure how far down the power source can be scaled to put it on a helicopter though. Posted by: Formerly Virginian at December 04, 2025 11:07 AM (zjgNU) 27
The use of blinding laser weapons as a method of warfare is prohibited by the Protocol on Blinding Laser Weapons, which is part of the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW) adopted in 1995.
This protocol specifically bans the use of lasers designed to cause permanent blindness to unenhanced vision, recognizing the severe and irreversible harm such weapons inflict. While the protocol does not prohibit the use of lasers for other purposes—such as range finding or targeting systems—it strictly forbids their use to blind combatants. The prohibition reflects a global consensus that intentionally causing blindness in soldiers is a grave violation of the laws of war. You may now continue.

Iron Beam seems like fascinating tech, hope it works. For drone suppression, I'm more hopeful for things along the lines of the Epirus Leonidas HP Microwave system, which in a recent test disabled 49 drones at once.

If you can find the drones, you can stop them. There's no reason why each of those multi-million dollar missiles could not be replaced by a $100 drone similar to the one it's intended to stop. It's not even very hard, it's kind of an inversion of the problem of figuring out how get a swarm of drones to not collide with each other.
The problem is that you have to detect the incoming drones and that takes sensors and sensors tend to be both expensive and fragile. Posted by: Cybersmythe at December 04, 2025 11:08 AM (2Insx) 35

It won't be long before those airbases are surrounded by a multi-layered defense system that includes laser to defend against drones.
This will be the key for the next decade at least and it is what we are building towards. One system to take out high flyers, another to take out multiple flyers at low altitude. And something else to take out the very low flyers. ( think a drone with a grenade zooming up a street and cutting down an alley kind of low). And then something to down masses of drones. These systems will include kinetic shooters, electronic warfare systems (jammers), EMP, and lasers. The guy who makes a really good thing in any of these will be $$$!

What about radio waves? The drone has to communicate with someone. Block frequencies.
Posted by: rickb223 ===== Fire and forget is something plus channel hopping can make it difficult. From my meager understanding,emp weapons are only semi directional and thus would take out friend and foe unless hardened against it. Drones, like AI, are a disruptive technology change on par with firearms, radio, or missiles in combat. I don't think we or others have figured out all its implications yet but cheap throwaway weapons that can do mini kamikaze missions, quiet battlefield surveillance, serve as lurking weapons platforms is sort of like a swiss army knife of military usefulness.

Its an interesting question which will be cheaper in the future. Artillery is a little harder to target, but it has cheap mobility and its fast. Drones need a separate means of movement which has a price and they are slower but they can course correct in a way arty can't. Right now artillery needs human management but that could be automated as well I suppose. You could also imagine artillery fired drone gliders so you don't have to give them motors.

Another point in all this so far the more techy savvy western powers have abided by a fairly "humane" use of drones and such.
One could imagine sending a group of explosive/incendiary drones into your enemy population centers - like you can do with bombers, but much more cheaply and it would be very hard to defend against - a few SAM sites would dissuade a mass bombing attack but not a mass droning Posted by: 18-1 at December 04, 2025 11:23 AM (sKqQm) 106
I predict the equivalent of an EM fence around military bases. They would be focused skyward and be dense enough that any drone trying to fly through would be fried. It would be turned on only in times of incipient war, so as to avoid crashing civilian airplanes.

Posted by: Formerly Virginian at December 04, 2025 11:27 AM (zjgNU) Since I’ve lived in my current county/city not a single bond measure for schools, fire or police has failed. They all pass with at least 60% and sometimes over 70%. But there was a bond measure to increase car registration. It was written specifically to allocate the money to construction projects, not to just throw the money into the general fund. It was construction projects desperately needed to alleviate traffic. I voted yes for this. It failed 2:1, lol.

Do leftards refuse to admit error because it's their religion, or is it their religion because they refuse to admit error?
Posted by: ... ========= Dammit, now you make me think instead of glib pronouncements. I think though it is probably the latter. Axioms once adopted are rarely examined again and so you get things like historical determinism when history itself indicates no such thing when examined. You get the constant revision of what is a 'good thing' because no real Scriptures of the left exist to limit and tie down what is good. You get leftist judges making up the law on the fly based on an everchanging oppressed, oppressor weighting using Pokemon diversity points and so on. If you asked a leftist if their politics was their religion, they would say no, but de facto, it exhibits almost all facets of what we would call religious behavior rather than reason. Leftism nowadays, or Islam, take your pick, is mostly devoid of reason in its makeup and their overreliance on emotion means it can never become a true faith like Judaism or Christianity. Or perhaps Buddhism though I know only a smattering about that. Posted by: whig at December 04, 2025 11:43 AM (WDjG6) 197

Apparently, the pipe bomber's shoes may have played a big role in ultimately getting him...NBCWashington (same link as before)
"A team of investigators pored over videos of the suspect and analyzed the person's gait and distinctive shoes. The FBI said in October that the suspect stands about 5-foot-7 and was wearing black, gray and yellow Nike Air Max Speed Turf sneakers. Fewer than 25,000 of the shoes were sold in about a two-year period, they learned." So, only 25K sold...then if you have a footprint anywhere, you can narrow to size and probably be down to 2.5K (or heck, use the video to size it)...but it still took almost 5 years...

What I found fascinating when I researched Islam was the answer to all "questions" boiled down to... not kidding... "because Allah said so". My understanding of the Christian God (aka God) is He wants you to ask questions, and to get to know Him and to understand. It's not so much that He wants to *be* questioned, but there is a relationship that gets cultivated in trying to deepen one's understanding through query. OTOH in Islam the beginning and the end of any answer is Because Allah Said So. And if you doubt or waver, you are essentially committing a crime. It is always the answer and you don't need to know any more than that. I also find it fascinating that Islam believes in the Virgin Birth. That astounded me, I had no idea.

240 Right on. I guess my ultimate point is I don't really believe in coincidences when it comes to stuff like this, so my mind goes to "okay so who's actually behind this X account?" Your points are fair though.
Posted by: ballistic at December 04, 2025 11:51 AM (3BwY ===== I just have this viewpoint of the world that it's really big, really complicated, and never able to be...controlled. Oh, sure, powerful people can pull many strings, but they can't pull every string. If they could, the populace would have been controlled long, long ago. There's so much room for so many independent actors to just do their own thing that coincidentally aligns with the larger goals of powerful people. Rando in Africa who's now "PatriotAmerican4God" on X, or whatever, doesn't have to be paid directly by powerful people to advance their interests. He doesn't have to be part of some sort of large organization with powerful interests at top. He can just be a dude with a cell phone, getting his slice.

What I found fascinating when I researched Islam was the answer to all "questions" boiled down to... not kidding... "because Allah said so".
My understanding of the Christian God (aka God) is He wants you to ask questions, and to get to know Him and to understand. It's not so much that He wants to *be* questioned, but there is a relationship that gets cultivated in trying to deepen one's understanding through query. OTOH in Islam the beginning and the end of any answer is Because Allah Said So. And if you doubt or waver, you are essentially committing a crime. It is always the answer and you don't need to know any more than that. I also find it fascinating that Islam believes in the Virgin Birth. That astounded me, I had no idea.

Then LeMay just decided napalm would work better
——— LeMay was an amazing individual. Don’t go by the leftist media narrative. Be honest, if you know of him at all, it is likely “Bomb them back to the stone age”. Something he never actually said. (Sound familiar?) He was a true leader, taking flight lead plane as commander numerous times. He had determined that war was a dirty nasty business, and the only way to make it work was to make it as short as possible. He got results on early B-17 bombing missions right away, and quickly got promoted. He basically re-built SAC and is probably the main reason why nukes were never deployed against the USA during the “cold” war with the Soviets. More than one president didn’t care for him, but he was kept on at the JCS because they knew he was good shit. Posted by: Common Tater at December 04, 2025 12:11 PM (bssx/) 312

Lasers are AN answer, not THE answer. Lasers are line of sight. Drones are not mindless - they have clever, and in the case of the Ukrainians and Russians, VAST amounts of battlefield experience. They know how to use hills and trees to block line of sight. They know how to use fiber optic drone to fly a foot above the ground, lurking behind bushes.

While they were in high spirits, they shouted, “Bring out Samson to entertain us.” So they called Samson out of the prison, and he performed for them.
When they stood him among the pillars, 26 Samson said to the servant who held his hand, “Put me where I can feel the pillars that support the temple, so that I may lean against them.” Posted by: r hennigantx at December 04, 2025 09:37 AM (gbOdA) 31

From: visual-arts-cork.com
"The painting illustrates the moment when Delilah, having seduced Samson, instructs an accomplice to cut his hair, robbing him of his strength. Samson is shown asleep in Delilah's lap, symbolizing his vulnerability and trust." "The old woman in the background, holding a candle, is believed to represent a procuress, suggesting the theme of betrayal and the consequences of seduction." "Delilah's beauty is juxtaposed with the old woman's withered appearance, hinting at the fleeting nature of beauty and the moral implications of her actions. The statue of Venus and Cupid in the background further emphasizes themes of love and betrayal, with Cupid's mouth bound, symbolizing the silencing of true love."

A Nazarite's vow typically included the following three main commitments:
Abstinence from Wine: The individual must refrain from consuming wine, strong drink, and any products derived from grapes, including vinegar. Uncut Hair: The Nazarite must not cut their hair for the duration of the vow, symbolizing their dedication to God. Avoiding Ritual Impurity: They must not come into contact with corpses or graves, even those of family members, to maintain their ritual purity. 1 out of 3 aint bad Posted by: r hennigantx at December 04, 2025 09:43 AM (gbOdA) 54

Elisha went from that city to Bethel. He was walking up the hill to the city, and some boys were coming down out of the city. They began making fun of him. They said, “Go away, you bald-headed man! Go away, you bald-headed man!” 24 Elisha looked back and saw them. He asked the Lord to cause bad things to happen to them. Then two bears came out of the forest and attacked the boys.

Posted by: r hennigantx FWIW, Story is more complex, Jewish tradition has a traditional interpretations of this passage. From Catholic Answers, "First of all, the famed Jewish Rabbi Rashi points out that what we translate as “little boys” had more than just that meaning. It was also a word that would be used to refer to those without mitzvot (without moral conscience) and thus could refer to any immoral person. Before the incident where Elisha is mocked by the young men, he had performed a miracle purifying the water in Jericho. A strand of Jewish tradition has claimed that these young men from Beth-el had been making a business out of bringing good water into Jericho and by purifying the water there the prophet had destroyed their business. Their “water cartel” could no longer take advantage of the situation, so they descended upon Elisha." Posted by: whig at December 04, 2025 09:51 AM (WDjG6) 89

Known for his friendly demeanor and unique behaviors, Wojtek often showered, traveled in truck cabs, and wrestled with soldiers. He had his own allotment of cigarettes, which he chewed, and enjoyed fruits, sweet syrups, marmalade, honey, and beer as rewards. Though he sometimes caused mischief, such as rummaging through provisions and stealing female undergarments.

Before the incident where Elisha is mocked by the young men, he had performed a miracle purifying the water in Jericho. A strand of Jewish tradition has claimed that these young men from Beth-el had been making a business out of bringing good water into Jericho and by purifying the water there the prophet had destroyed their business. Their “water cartel” could no longer take advantage of the situation, so they descended upon Elisha."

Posted by: ShainS ===== I've seen some. Seems well done but as you note, it departs from a strict interpretation of Scripture at times. Then again, interpretation of Scripture can be a tricky and disputed thing even for very knowledgeable theologians.

I would consider myself a Nicean Christian but not very sectarian. Even more so after studying the early churches and their founders. Posted by: whig at December 04, 2025 10:08 AM (WDjG6) 159

Abstinence from Wine: The individual must refrain from consuming wine, strong drink, and any products derived from grapes, including vinegar. Uncut Hair: The Nazarite must not cut their hair for the duration of the vow, symbolizing their dedication to God. Avoiding Ritual Impurity: They must not come into contact with corpses or graves, even those of family members, to maintain their ritual purity. 1 out of 3 aint bad Posted by: r hennigantx at December 04, 2025 09:43 AM (gbOdA) 0/3.

Posted by: Chuck Martel I repeat to myself, whenever reading JJ's morning misfortunes of modern times scribe, "This too will pass". Slowly getting back to reading religious texts for a project on law that I have put on the back burner for too long. Long time ago, I used examples of canon, Jewish, and even Islamic law texts for a comparative legal systems class that I taught along with legal history in another class. Reading parts of the Talmud, you can certainly see why Jews traditionally have made superb secular lawyers (and those with a religious bent end up becoming rabbis that use and develop religious law as well). Millennia of studying religious texts as scholars and then applying them to their society ended up creating much of what we know as law in the West today.

I saw the tapestry in Bayeux. What I never realized was that it was what we would call today a graphic novel. William the Conqueror commissioned it and had his crew take it from village to village to explain to everyone why William was now their King and why he was the rightful King. One of the panels shows him sitting at the right hand of his cousin Edward the Confessor; William's claim was that Harold, who succeeded Edward, wasn't as closely related to Edward as William was.
I also never realized that the Conquest wasn't a one-shot deal in 1066. It was apparently a much more gradual process. Posted by: Caesar North of the Rubicon at December 04, 2025 10:27 AM (eStot) 225

More likely was something I saw at the time suggesting that he had developed some very close ties to some notable Cartel figures, and got canned for that. Doesn't matter - what they're really pissed about, besides interrupting the drug trade, is that Hegseth is methodically getting rid of the Biden/Obama leadership and putting new, more loyal leadership in their place.

Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius When I went back to Michigan in June, my rental car was a pushbutton. It's hard for me to get used to that. Still had a fob to lock/unlock it, though. Posted by: Bulg at December 04, 2025 *** The 2016 Buick is my first pushbutton start car. I have the fob for the doors, which technique I used for the previous two Buicks. But the '16 Buick has a deal where, if the fob is in range, you press a button in one of the door handles to unlock or lock. The '15 BMW was more annoying: You could place a finger atop the door handle and the car would unlock or lock. Caused frequent locking/unlocking when I was washing the car -- the water pressure was enough to trigger it.

I leave the key fob in the cars. I live in a low crime area. But I also figure if someone really wants to steal it, they can do so with or without the fob. And whatevs, that’s what insurance is for.

"The Philistines couldn't understand the secret of Samson’s strength, so they got Delilah to find out. “How is this devil so strong?” they inquired (Judges 16:5). It's a stupid question to ask if Samson had arms the size of tree trunks or elephant legs." Samson's supernatural strength came from G-d, "and he 'wist not' that the LORD was departed from him" when his Nazarite Covenant hair was shorn.

Pisseth against the wall indeed.
Posted by: whig I wish they had left that in the RSV. I only know about the "pisseth against the wall" verses from my Mom. My maternal grandparents were very devout member of the Christian Reformed Church (Dutch Calvinists). Every Sunday, around the dinner table, the six kids would take turns reading passages from the KJV at random. My Mom somehow always wound up inadvertently choosing one of the "pisseth" verses and got embarrassed. My guess is that she just opened the Bible in the middle and landed in one of the Books of Samuel or Kings, where most of those verses occur. Posted by: Bulg at December 04, 2025 10:36 AM (77rzZ) 279

Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at December 04, 2025 10:39 AM (wzUl9) The ignition had a slot to put the key in, so I think it was probably wear and tear that the locking mechanism on the key didn't lock any more. But all you had to do was just grab the ignition switch and turn it. Posted by: Caesar North of the Rubicon at December 04, 2025 10:46 AM (eStot) 338

I'll admit that the ASS system on the '15 BMW was pretty seamless. Occasionally I tried it and the economy setting on the transmission, and while they worked well together, I hadn't bought the 3 Series for fuel economy. (It got great numbers, by the way.) The car seemed tired, even in slow traffic, when I combined those two.
It would go into ASS mode by design when you put the transmission in ECO; but you could turn the ASS off and it would stay off. Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at December 04, 2025 10:46 AM (wzUl9) 340
I leave the key in my usual daily driver sitting in the carport. It has a manual transmission and there is a trick to starting it so good luck to anyone who wants to try to take it.

The '15 BMW was more annoying: You could place a finger atop the door handle and the car would unlock or lock. Caused frequent locking/unlocking when I was washing the car -- the water pressure was enough to trigger it.

leaving your keys in your car -- even in your driveway -- was considered an invitation to thieves.
——- Yes, but that’s because of incessant propaganda. It works. Repetition. In the 1960s the Ad Council had a campaign called “Help Keep A Good Kid From Going Bad” about keys in the ignition. In those days, everyone still knew what’s what, and the public backlash caused the ad to get pulled. It’s your fault for having nice things, don’tcha know.

Is Ireland Going to Erupt Into a Civil War Over Illegal Immigration?
Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks Euroland is a powder keg and if Ireland goes up or some other country in Euroland, it is likely to spread to other countries in pretty rapid succession. The EU has become a parody of the old Soviet Union and all the native citizens that are not in the current ruling elite are getting restless. I don't think mindless recitations of climate change doom is going to placate "aux citoyens" about witnessing their ongoing decline in living standards, safety, and society about them. All due to globalist elites making bank while their countries burn down around them. Posted by: whig at December 04, 2025 11:02 AM (WDjG6) 415

—— Ha! Leftists hate remote start almost as much as Republicans. They go to great lengths to ‘splain that engines don’t need to be warmed up. They warm up faster driving, under load. This is true. But then I point out I don’t warm up the engine for the engine, I warm it up for ME. I watch these dumb asses peering through a baseball sized clear spot in the windshield, wearing a parka, visibility zero. The hell with that.

Posted by: Spurwing Plover at December 04, 2025 06:28 PM (wGqjj) The Morning Report — 12/4/25![]() MAGA Will 'Commit Jihad' For Trump.First of all, did this dolt not read the memo that Jihad is not a violent act of terrorism but a beautiful expression of internal struggle and reflection by the mostly peaceful peaceniks of Islam? Oh boy, I smell a big fat fatwa for this fathead if she doesn't recant that statement lickety-split. That said, who are the ones burning cities to the ground, shooting up churches, and synagogues, attempting to and in the case of poor Charlie Kirk succeeding in assassinating political enemies as well as CEOs. It ain't MAGAns, Fatso. In any case, as commenter MP4 once quipped, If Trump, and by extension all of us were a fraction of the evil, Hitlerite fascists they claim we are, they'd all have been smoke up a crematorium chimney ages ago. And then there's this canker sore on the body politic Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson: “I Have Inherited a White-Supremacist System” . . . The city’s mayor headlined a conference where activists celebrated armed resistance in Gaza, the Philippines, and the United States.First, what exactly is being resisted?! The rule of law and sanity. I'd venture to say that Al Capone, at the height of his reign as Public enemy number 1, even with a syphilis-ravaged brain, lorded over a Chicago that compared to today was an idyllic paradise on earth. And how could Johnson possibly have inherited a white supremacist system that exists to suppress colored people of color like him? The closest you'd ever get to a seat of white power is as a toilet attendant at Sheldon (whorehouse) Whitehouse's Whites Only Country Club . . . Unless of course Mr. Johnson you are merely acting as a house you-know-what willingly working as a warder to keep your fellow black and brown folk down! You should be strapped onto a gurney and have JB Pritzker part his cheeks like the Red Sea, and sit on your face after consuming several giant tins of baked beans. There's your white supremacy, pal. Elsewhere, as CBD and I discussed on the latest episode of the podcast (linked here and in the sidebar as well as on the usual outlets listed below) The reactions to President Trump authorizing Secretary of War (how I love that) Pete Hegseth to take out the narco-terrorists boats before they can reach our shores with their lethal cargo have been most revealing indeed. Those shouting loudest about the poor innocent drug traffickers are the Democrat Leftists. While the term the War on Drugs which came into the public discourse during the middle years of Ronald Reagan's presidency due to the scourge of crack cocaine that ended thousands of lives and wasted many thousand more in the ensuing years, became the target of much cynicism and ridicule. The bitter irony is that in the main those thousands of wasted lives were black, latino and other primarily Democrat constituencies. That said, considering the toxicity of fentanyl, interdicting its flow into our nation is a justified act of self defense. COnsidering that state actors from Venezuela's Maduro and all the way out to Red China's Xi Jinping are involved in the poisoning of the American citizenry, the word War in this instance does have certain implications and in theory consequences. And yet, we have to deal with a fifth column in our midst that belches this garbage out: The latest atrocity that Trump has committed, as far as the left is concerned, is targeting narcoterrorists’ boats in the Caribbean. After all, who will speak for the poor drug traffickers if they don’t? . . . Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Mutiny) and the other members of the Seditious Six are leading this effort, but one of the chief defenders of the poor drug mules has been the vice chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), who is not one of the notorious Six. Warner seems to be trying to make this issue his claim to fame; up to now, he has only been known as the senator from Virginia named Warner who wasn’t married to Elizabeth Taylor. Warner, however, may now have crossed a line he could regret crossing: in a video that began circulating Wednesday, he appears to be calling for a military coup against a duly elected president of the United States. . . “this is an administration that’s fired, you know, uniformed generals from the head of the NSA, the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency, and I think, um, uh, in many ways, the uniformed military may help save us from this president and his lame people like Hegseth, because I think their commitment is to the Constitution and obviously not to Trump, and I expect Bradley would adhere to that.” Warner was referring to Adm. Frank Bradley, whom Hegseth has identified as the authority who made the decision to order a second strike on the drug boat, about which leftists are in an uproar. Far less clear, however, was what Warner meant by his reference to the military saving us from Orange Man Bad. The Constitution says nothing about the military having any role whatsoever in protecting Americans from a supposedly rogue president. . . Warner, however, seems unconcerned about the prospect of any retaliation from the man he nevertheless wants us to think is a reckless, vindictive dictator-in-the-making. “This is the biggest crowd of wimps you’ve ever seen,” Warner said Tuesday of Trump, Hegseth, and others in the administration. Wimps, you see, but lawless, fascist wimps who must be stopped at all costs.It is abundantly clear that, regardless of the very real and persistent threat to the peace of he world and the advancement of civilization, posed by Islam, the greatest existential threat to whatever is left of America as founded — which was the pinnacle of social and human societal development — faces comes from within. It is the anti-AMERICAN Left and its political epicenter in the Democrat Party and its affiliates. Period full stop. On that note I give you this eye-opening piece from Daniel Greenfield about what our friend and co-blogger the estimable Buck Throckmorton has so accurately and brilliantly labeled as the Philanthropaths, a cross between philanthropists and psychopaths In this case the Macarthur Foundation. Especially when those children are being sexually assaulted, starved or beaten to death. The police must never be called. Roberts argues that child protective services is a false front that survives only because any real change would threaten the racial capitalist system she believes it protects. “What it’s really protecting is the idea that this nation cares about the safety of children and the the reason why children aren’t safe is because of their pathological parents, they’re deficient parents. Therefore, you know, why, why have that, why believe that? Because then you don’t need radical social change.” Roberts says. Same argument as with murderers, rapists and muggers. It’s not their fault. They’re victims of systemic racism. Stop policing them and then surely you’ll have lots of ‘equity.’Now you can see why Luigi Mangione, Abrego Garcia, the Islamic Gazan Jewish baby roasters and the Narco-terrorists have cheerleaders...

Trump has all of the authority that he needs to kill drug runners and congress gave it to him after 9/11. They authorized the president to kill terrorists under the authorization for use of military force in 2001 and they never put a time limit on it. All Trump had to do is declare the drug gangs as terrorists and presto! He can peruse them to the ends of the earth with congress blessing.

Posted by: Victor Tango Kilo at December 04, 2025 07:58 AM (tZudk) Old Venezuela was also run by a uniparty that pretended to give people choices, but never actually did. Chavez was able to rise through the military and kick them out, in typical South American fashion. When he died, the Cartels were able to take control and install Maduro, a particularly ignorant man on the level of Hawaii’s Senator Hirono.

Greaseball Gavin speaks out of both sides of his smarmy mouth. Out of one side, he says he opposes a billionaire tax. Out of the other side, he just said "democracy" is doomed unless we redistribute the wealth (not his, of course).

It seem that for as long as I can remember, the Left has installed post turtles to high office. Carter was probably the most intelligent of the recent installations with the intelligence dropping significantly after each appointment with the anointed successor less intelligent than their predecessor. It ain't just Venezuela, I think that is the MO of history in most nations. Keep installing successively more evil and retarded leaders until the entity (nation, state, city, corporation, NGO, HOA) collapses. Only divine intervention interrupts the cycle.

-- Recently there have been a lot of protest marches against corruption , but these have also been contaminated by antifa-like goons. I think regular Filipinos are quite confused about where these violent rioters are from and wtf they're doing. Everyone hates the politicians and their corruption but most Filipinos are very proud of their history of peacefully ousting Marcos I. Rioters destroying property does not make sense to them.

I believe this is why you get Trump being so blunt about Somali fraud. They have a MN governor, mayor, and police force all now invested in keeping them here. Could speculate why, but does it matter? Now is not the time for diplomacy and tact. It's time to go all-in and make the rest of the country understand the stakes, understand who the bad guys are, before it gets messy. Because MN leaders are going to insist it gets messy. Posted by: Lizzy at December 04, 2025 08:15 AM (GbwPZ) 100

Nothing says “hope and change” quite like bulldozing a beloved public park for a 235-foot phallic tower dedicated to oneself. Welcome to the Obama Presidential Center (OPC), an $830 million (and rising) vanity project in Chicago’s historic Jackson Park. The man who once preached community organizing couldn’t find a single non-park site in his hometown for his monument. I get angry every time I see a story about this thing. It feels as if Obama is giving America a gigantic, double-barreled middle finger.

It’s notable to me that the rhetoric heard today in “mainstream” orgs is lifted verbatim from the 1960s radicals. The Tom Hayden Jane Fonda cadillac communist crowd, Billy Ayers and the rest of it.
One thing they never get around to, what or where is this Utopia system that isn’t based on “White Supremacy”? Can they point to a successful country that is the one we should all strive to emulate? If there is, I’ve never heard it. These are infantile saboteurs.

So instead of going back to the Original, they think going to the one with a well established track record that has murdered hundreds of millions and guaranteed slavery, misery and death is the rational choice. • The 17th Amendment -GONE: States need their own representative in the form of a couple Senators. We don't need wasteful redundancy in Congress. • Abolish the 19th: No society continues with emotional people making serious decisions. • Reverse the 24th Amendment: If fraudulent ballots coming out of the poor districts are throwing elections, at least a poll tax on each "vote" will make fraud more expensive.

Posted by: Unknown Drip Under Pressure at December 04, 2025 08:33 AM (a4flb) Reversing the 24th would not require states inclined to fraud to institute a poll tax.

So if I'm understanding correctly, what the narco-terrorists need to do is paint a buoy to look like a person and pull it along beside their boat:
That way, it's illegal for anyone to shoot their boat because there's a "survivor" in the water. This is so stupid.

🚨🇺🇸 INDIANA MOVES TO IMPEACH "ROGUE" JUDGES & PROSECUTORS: FINALLY, REAL TEETH FOR PUBLIC SAFETY
Indiana Rep. Andrew Ireland filed a proposed constitutional amendment to let the state legislature impeach judges and prosecutors who go soft on violent offenders. Repeat killers or rapists get slaps on the wrist, and now lawmakers could boot the enablers out the door. The push? It's aimed square at spots like Marion County, where critics say DA Ryan Mears has let folks with rap sheets, like the IndyGo bus arsonist, walk free, spiking fear in neighborhoods. Ireland's bill would expand impeachment beyond just "high crimes" to straight-up failure to enforce laws that protect innocents, needing approval in 2 legislative sessions before hitting voters. This is the accountability people've been screaming for. Soft-on-crime benchwarmers hide behind "discretion," but when their leniency endangers families, it's not justice, it's negligence. The U.S. would be in the vanguard of this movement, it's due to time to boot 'em, replace 'em with tough enforcers who prioritize victims over perps.

Beloved Southern restaurant chain closes all locations after 88 years in business
"Another family restaurant chain has abruptly closed all of its locations for good. K&W Cafeteria — an 88-year-old institution across North Carolina and Virginia — closed its final eight restaurants on December 1, marking the end of a dining tradition generations grew up with.

BREAKING on DailyMail -
The FBI has arrested a Virginia man in connection with several pipe bombs laid near Capitol Hill on the eve of the January 6, 2021 riots. Officials have not yet named the suspect, who sources told ABC News is from Virginia. No further details on the suspect's identity have been released. They have been charged with laying the explosives outside the Democratic and Republican National Committee headquarters, which did not detonate. Law enforcement officials told MS Now that a motive behind the plot is not yet determined, but said the suspect has been linked to support for anarchist ideology. The arrest marks the first major breakthrough in the five-year investigation that had baffled the agency and sparked a wave of conspiracy theories.

The last job report. nov, was revised by EDP. It now shows a net loss of 40000 jobs. This is the 3rd month in a row and 4 out of six months to show a net loss of jobs.
The Trump economy sucks. People are no longer worried about tariffs based inflation as much as they are about jobs. Every year 4 million young people turn 22 and there are not enough jobs at any level for them to take. And NO vthe economy does not need 4 million apprentice plumbers or electricians especially when new construction has stopped Posted by: Aliassmithsmith at December 04, 2025 09:08 AM (DDKfn) 336

Federal authorities made their first arrest Thursday in connection with two pipe bombs that were planted outside the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee headquarters on the eve of the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, according to sources familiar with the matter. The arrest marks a major step forward in a case that has vexed the FBI for nearly five years. Posted by: SMOD at December 04, 2025 09:09 AM (RHGPo) 342

The source of the democrats sustenance, their ability to maintain their outrageously sick and seditious rhetoric, narratives and actions and to escape the wider recognition of their scandalous danger to our Republic, is the media. It's the media that covers for them, equally in its exculpatory coverage -- whitewashing the socially disruptive and insurrectionist conduct of the democrats -- as its non-coverage, its calculated omissions, its total blackout of his achievements on behalf of America. It is this that leaves a huge audience predisposed and primed to believe the worst about Trump to insistently maintain their belief in the worst about Trump. I hear a lot about the legacy media's "diminished reach and influence," but this is misleading. However much conservatives have gained in media clout, the mainstream's systemic hatred, smears and assaults against Trump along with its refusal to concede a single point in his favor is what is chiefly driving our growing civil discord.

"Yasser Abu Shabab, a leader of Gaza militias in eastern Rafah who in recent months has worked together with Israel, has been assassinated.
He had been cooperating with Israel in recent months and heads an organization called the Popular Forces. Senior Israeli security officials said he was killed in clashes between clans in Gaza. Abu Shabab told an interview he gave to KAN News in the past that his people are young Palestinians from the Strip who do not belong to any political or organizational idea. "We tasted the bitterness and injustice caused to us by Hamas and took upon ourselves to deal with this aggression," he said in an interview. "We will become a support for our people to remove this injustice." Shabab emphasized: "We support any legitimate force that adopts the idea of removing injustice and corruption".

Why don’t we have big personalities like Madden and Coryell in the NFL anymore? It’s the No Fun League
Posted by: LinusVanPelt at December 04, 2025 09:01 AM (YobFY) ----------- When was the last time an NFL head coach made more money than the highest NFL player on his team? * searches Brave "AI" * "The last definitive instance of a coach being the highest-paid person on his team likely occurred in the late 1980s, possibly with coaches like Shula, Tom Landry, or Chuck Knox." The last time an NFL coach likely earned more than any player on his team was in the late 1980s or early 1990s, before the explosion of player free agency and massive quarterback contracts. . Don Shula, coaching the Miami Dolphins, was one of the highest-paid figures in football during this era. . In 1990, Shula earned approximately $1.4 million, while the highest-paid player in the NFL, defensive end Reggie White, made about $1.7 million — slightly more than Shula. . However, for most other teams, the head coach was often the highest-paid person on the roster, especially in smaller markets or teams without superstar players."

That is probably the most racist statement I will see all day. Or at least a hold-over sentiment that only Union Members can hold a certain job - scabs need to go starve and die or dig canals for their food pellet.

Posted by: Colin at December 04, 2025 05:31 AM (wlQdF) Probably not. Quantum computing is a different way of computing data but that doesn't invalidate the value of the data itself. There's a lot of hand-wavy promises about quantum but it's not likely, ever, to become something widely used due the difficulty in shielding the qubits. If 'perfected', it'll be useful for government and big labs. Posted by: I used to have a different nic at December 04, 2025 05:51 AM (ExV1e) 54

Posted by: Colin at December 04, 2025 05:31 AM (wlQdF) Quantum may replace classic computing eventually, but probably not in most of our lifetimes. Quantum computers have to be kept at well below zero temps to work correctly. The most recent advances have worked with operating temps around 1 kelvin (-458 F). So it requires some pretty heavy duty equipment to get the temps that low. Most Quantum will be done via the cloud/data centers until they can figure out how to run them at near room temperature so everybody will be able to run them anywhere.

Posted by: Colin ---- Quantum is the most overhyped tech right now. It can never replace classical computing. Even once it's perfected, it will only give exponential speedup for a very narrow range of problems. It will break a whole bunch of cryptography though, so there is that.

The technology CBD linked in the sidebar has, apparently, been in operation in Japan for a while with good success and safety but it seems to be most useful for industrial applications which require enormous amounts of heat... foundries and the like. I haven't read much about using them for mass electricity generation. Posted by: I used to have a different nic at December 04, 2025 06:45 AM (ExV1e) I know zilch about them. How do they keep them cool is my question? Posted by: SpeakingOf at December 04, 2025 06:52 AM (6ydKt) 121

From that same site CBD linked to, there's an article about making fuel for molten-salts reactors.
https://tinyurl.com/2csdk8mc (interestingengineering.com) According to INL, the project is attracting significant interest from the maritime sector beyond land-based energy applications. Molten salt reactors offer the potential for compact, long-lasting nuclear propulsion systems capable of powering commercial ships with minimal maintenance and no emissions during operation. With the ability to support long voyages without refueling, the technology could transform shipping logistics and energy economics. Support from private industry and continued federal investment signal momentum toward reactor demonstration and eventual commercial deployment. Researchers highlighted that if successful, the project could help establish a new nuclear propulsion industry, expand US leadership in advanced nuclear systems, and position the technology as a competitive alternative to global maritime reactors already under development Posted by: SpeakingOf at December 04, 2025 07:02 AM (6ydKt) 127

Fun story about Christmas shopping last night. My mother-in-law needs a folding cane and my wife found a decent one for her. I hit the site, found what I needed and was having technical issues. Jump on the chat and explain what's going on.
Before I finished talking with the lady, the problem self corrected. It was only after I finished paying for things that I saw she offered me a discount code to make up for the problem. Ended up calling the company and got the same woman on the line. She arranged for the discount to be applied to my order. They want my money and proved that they deserve it.

How do they keep them cool is my question?
Posted by: SpeakingOf Heat transfers out from a secondary loop and is used for industrial processes like refineries and chemical cracking. Dow wants one in Texas to save a lot of CO2 emissions in their chemical plants. It is a good solution. I think the reactor vessel is inherently safe because the design keeps out of parameters high temps from being possible. Posted by: NaCly Dog at December 04, 2025 07:15 AM (u82oZ) 137

It's cleared up nicely outside, and I went out to look at the Moon and etc. The Cold Moon is high enough that I had to crane my neck, which reminded me this damned RA is slowly doing it's TLC on it -- I'm getting some mild early symptoms of pinched nerves, which is more annoyance. Orion is up, with Sirius below. The Alpha Big Dog is doing it's red to green twinkling thing nicely now. And Jove is up there as well, shining quite bright. Chilly and peaceful it all was.

Funky. I didn't know how deep into "Our Love" New Order had got. (This is the first time I'd heard it.)
I've been in a rabbithole on early New Order lately. Apparently "Blue Monday" started as filler which they programmed after the band's actual set, so they could slip away and drink beers before going back for the encore. So, for this beat, they just filched from everything, like Donna Summer, and Kraftwerk too. It wasn't supposed to be a real song. Eventually they'd stolen from so many other songs that nobody even noticed the Frankenstein monster of old disco b-sides and Eurotrash. And then they released "Blue Monday" at a literal loss and everyone... kept buying the single. Cost Factory Records a fortune. Posted by: gKWVE at December 03, 2025 10:22 PM (gKWVE) 74

Radios were interesting, everyone wants to install a polarized plug on the old school radios. Except, that’s not how it works. For one, the chassis will be “hot”, either when the radio is ON or OFF if it is plugged in, depending on which way the plug is inserted. No way around this unless you rewire the chassis. It will usually have a noticeable slight hum if the chassis happens to be hot when ON. Flip the plug in the outlet, and avoid using in the tub, or cement floors in your stockings. It is a surprise to get a jolt when touching a chassis while grounded, and the device is OFF. It isn’t defective, that’s just how they made shit back then.

Clothespin with opening facing the pin nail attached (nailed ) to top at the other end. Join 2 or 3 heavy duty rubber bands together and thread a clothespin spring to one end of it.

Old spark plugs.
Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at December 03, 2025 10:18 PM (npFr7 Part of my personal rehab for a broken and set right shoulder was to teach myself how to use a sling - a David sling, or Balearic sling I guess you could call it. I was down at the river tossing as many rocks as it took to make my shoulder hurt life fire. I almost always hit the water, and the best rocks were the round or almond shaped ones, they flew the best. I found a handful of old sparkplugs someone had tossed into the river when the water was high, and I flipped those. If you get just the right swing you can throw them in almost a spiral like with a football. (of course if you bobble it, they keyhole and fly funny) Posted by: Kindltot at December 03, 2025 10:42 PM (rbvCR) 145

Bravo, T Rex! I love the Pittsburg scannner messages and wish I could join the person for one night.
Lovely song at the end, and I thank you. Here is Alison Krauss nailing a Christmas song in one take...she is that gifted. The Wexford Carol, is an Irish Christmas carol from the 15th or 16th century. Her voice is unchanged in the over 20yrs since I first heard her. We had the great honor to see her and Union Station under the stars in July this summer. Alison Krauss has the ethereal voice of an angel on earth. I hope you enjoy this. May God bless you all this Advent season.

I have room to park several RV's, and could rig water and electric. There is a free sani dump in town. Would be happy to take a party on a tour to Drumheller and the museum.

We did something similar. Different, but adjacent - one of the great shames of my childhood was not making an atladl.
Posted by: scampydog at December 03, 2025 10:46 PM (41CYW) My father showed me how to make what he called an "Indian sling". Maybe just a B.C. coastal thing. Get a 3 to 4 foot piece of Western red cedar, maybe random driftwood, or split off a log. Red cedar splits very easily, hence its use for roofing shakes. So you take this stick, bind it tight with twine maybe half a foot from one end, and split that end with a knife. Wedge a suitable pebble in that split (the twine binding makes it grip tightly), and make a baseball swing with the stick, ending abruptly with the stick pointed at your target. Off flies the pebble, with great force. Kind of like an atlatl; a means to extend your arm, and increase the velocity with which you can throw.

Posted by: nerdygirl at December 03, 2025 11:11 PM (0Htd1) I'd be suspicious. I was gifted a glow-in-dark rosary too. Had one or two frisbees, and a Timex that would still be aglow 5 hours after I went to bed. My brother had a space-ship model that glowed from across the room. It was like a nightlight.

Hello, Horde! 😊♥️
Had my MRI today; see the oncologist tomorrow, the surgeon on Monday, then on Thursday (12/11) my surgery is scheduled. Just in time. There appear to be some new spots in my liver; the lymph nodes still look clear, though. This means that the cancer is figuring out a way around the chemo. The doctors will be starting me on a new regimen after the surgery, in hopes that it may buy me some more time. There is currently no "cure" for this type of cancer; doctors and patients just play whack-a-mole with the beast as long as they can.

Arggghh. We stumbled across this just driving by. Had no idea what it was and never heard of it before. Too late in the day to get inside, but walked around all the stuff outside. Would love to get there for a proper visit. LOTS of tanks!
Posted by: TRex ----- Tanks. Lots of tanks, going back to WWI. German Brit, Japanese. Plus. Plus half-tracks , motorcycles, motorcycles with tracks. 3/4ton trucks, deuce and a halfs, 5 tons. Tanker trucks, ambulances. A couple of boats, one which was a Vietnam war river boat - think John eFen Kerry. Lots of this stuff goes way back. One disappointment - no Abrams.

Radium has a sordid history. One particular huckster was selling it as a tonic, radium infused water for “health” purposes. It was kind of a fad at the time, anything with numbers - clocks, radio dials, even house address numbers, got the Radium treatment.
Thorium was used to soak lantern mantles with for brighter whiter light. Not too dangerous maybe, but in Europe the manufacturer made the lantern mantles as a side gig, their main product was Thorium toothpaste. Not too sure about that. I think they use Yttrium now for lantern mantles. I gotta say the old school Coleman Silk Lites are much, much brighter than modern mantles. Better living through Chemistry!

Posted by: nerdygirl ----- Probably not. If you turned out the light at 10PM, and you could still see it a 4AM, it might have been, and if it was, it was probably dangerous because almost anything they could use prior to the mid-60s was a gamma ray source. I had a National.Semiconductor watch in the 70s that used a tritium capsule with some fluorescent material behind the display to light it. It was useful in the dark for about 7 years. I could detect a glow in a dark room 12 years later, but not good enough to read it. That was harmless because it was only a beta emitter (no gamma rays, and when it finally wore completely out, all.you had left was ordinary hydrogen.

Phoenix is only about 12 hours by road from the oilfields of the Permian Basin in Texas, around Midland/Odessa. They probably truck in fuel from there already. For some reason, cheapest gas in Arizona is in Eloy, near the junction of I-8 with I-10.
Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon ---- The same vid said that there was an existing fuel.pipeline between Tucson and El Paso, and that the cost difference between a pipeline and fuel truck was $0.005/gal/100 mi vs $0.05/gal/100 mi.

Posted by: JQ ---- On a Ram.pickup with the Cummins, even going through the wheel well, the filter has to be tipped about 60 degrees to get it out, so you always dumped oil. Somebody makes a plastic cap that screws into the filter and covers the entire top. Even if you tilt it a lot, only a drop or two escapes. Because its plastic, I imagine it'll wear out in 15 or 20 oil changes, but on the Cummins, that's about 150k miles. My neighbor has one, I'll have to find out where he got it. I've always had other work needed done so the garage has done my last 4 oil changes, but I should be doing my own next change. You might look to see if anyone makes the same for your Ford filter.

The filter on most of them are in front of the engine down low right over the front motor mounts, and the filter is sideways. They make all kinds of weird tray-like gadgets that keep the oil from dripping all over the front of the motor, but they don't work. We use the heavy duty tin foil and slide it under the filter. Same with the drain plugs on a lot of the 5speed transmissions with are on the side facing out so it leaks all over the frame. Again, tin foil to the rescue, we wrap it over the frame and form it into a little chute. The oil tank drains on the softails are great, it actually has a permanent drain hose with a plug attached. Unclip the hose from the frame, out it over the pan and pull the plug. Posted by: Berserker-Dragonheads Division at December 04, 2025 01:07 AM (snZF9) 366

Y'know what? Wandering off to watch videos really cuts into my ONT comment-perusing time. Last read back at #150. You chatty Morons.
Tonight, YooToob sidebar recommendations caught me with Star Trek First Contact. Some of it was silly. Some of it was good. I wanted Zefram Cochran, at the end, to say, "That'll do, pig." Speaking of who played what where, the character "Lily" was played by the same actress who was Bill Murray's secretary in Scrooged. I've sometimes thought of jumping from one movie to the next based on some actor in both. This would be a good time to start. 'Tis the season to watch Scrooged again. Actually, it's playing in theater on the 16th. That's how we first saw it in first run. Where Murray breaks the 4th wall and addresses the audience actually worked pretty well in an actual theater back then. Be nice to have a good crowd to watch it on the big screen again.

Puddle, all the Allied powers signed the document. So the Dominion of Canada signed, but the rep (who lost an eye in WWI) signed on the line for France by mistake; I think the French rep signed on the Canada line as that seemed most logical under the circumstances.
Kase (Yoko's uncle, junior diplomat there assisting the foreign minister) noticed the error and convinced Gen. Sutherland, Mac's deputy who was running the event, to make hand corrections (he crossed out the printed country names and wrote in the ones that matched the signatures). What's amazing and so perfectly Japanese is that the surrendering country noticed a technical imperfection and sort of insisted it be fixed - even though *they* were surrendering. Perfect.

Still got a few sips left of my nightcap.. been a busy day & I'm tired.
Wondering what's up with BIL, I've missed (not home at the time) a couple of calls from him this morning, but he won't call my cell phone. I can't hear for s#!t on the landline and have told him that! All I could hear on the answering machine was that he's calling for ____ (hubby). BIL knows my name, and knows hubby doesn't live here anymore, so... Means he wants something, probably, and knows I'm not on-board with it.

Braenyard -- BIL is a hapless, 70 yr old, widowed deaf man, what never had a real job & lived on the dole all his adult life. Lives in his own 5th wheel, but can't maneuver it worth a damn. Spends winters in AZ, summers on West Coast. Thought he was already down south by now.
Dude couldn't even lift a battery into his trailer compartment this Spring-- I had to do it for him. He's not a criminal, he's just... well, a leech.

BIL was trying to weasel in here, back in May. He told hubby he'd cook & help around the house. (yeah, right!)
Let him stay a couple days, take a shower & do some laundry... he never offered to cook, but expected breakfast and lunch. Never offered to help in the yard, but expected me to help him fix his truck and trailer-- which I really didn't mind doing for him-- it's just that he (like their father) had this idea that wimmens have no *say*. And that's why he wants to speak with hubby. Thinks hubby will order me to do whatever. LOL! Not! Posted by: JQ at December 04, 2025 03:15 AM (rdVOm) 411

Our Malinois, Breccia, one day followed me up a tall ladder to the roof. I was up there getting ready to do something. As I'm on the edge looking down she just appears next to me, looking pretty satisfied with herself.
She scampered back down the ladder like she did it routinely. She would also climb an 8 ft wooden fence and I had to bury and wire cinder blocks to the bottom of the fence because she would dig a 2 ft hole under the fence and escape. Posted by: Beartooth at December 03, 2025 07:45 PM (6D4X/) 19

When my dad was a teenager living in Seattle, they had a dog that climbed ladders, among other things. The busybody neighbor across the street called Grandma to tell her there was a dog on the roof. Grandma didn't believe her. Dad was up there fixing something, and Sitko just appeared. So, he let Sitko back into the house through a dormer window and went back to work. Sure enough, the lady calls again, and Grandma goes outside to look. Sitko is sitting on the edge of the roof, proud as a peacock.

Posted by: Duncanthrax Have to tell ya. Not all that impressed. Posted by: nurse ratched at December 03, 2025 07:52 PM (mT+6a) The best Texas style BBQ I ever had was in ... California. About 30 to 40 minutes from DLI. Place was a hole in the wall run by a Texas expat (long haired Vietnam vet). There was always a line (half hour wait minimum), and no one was complaining. That was 30 years ago. Probably long gone. Best BBQ I ever had in my life. At the risk of being a traitor to my homeland, I actually prefer the Carolina style BBQ to Texas BBQ, except the that place near DLI, which was a kind of BBQ Nirvana.

I managed a horse ride event for a few years over 20 years ago. The F.S. took away one loop because their local biologist declared "the horses will disturb the Bighorn sheep herd". As if those nimble Bighorns were going to bat an eye at the horses staying on the marked trails.

Mama moose.
------------- Always stunned at how large those things get. I once drove (speeding @ 85+ MPH as I was running late for a meeting) overnight from Bangor, Maine to Halifax, Nova Scotia -- and was terrified that I'd hit a moose and it would go right through the windshield. I subsequently learned that there was chain-linked fence on either side of the highways and they'd built wildlife-crossings underneath the roads to prevent such accidents. Even here in Northern AZ, every now and again (around Flagstaff) a car will hit one or more elk -- usually at night -- at a high rate of speed, causing one or more human fatalities.

The corn-eating kitty is an Abyssinian. One of our Abys also loved corn on the cob. At first I thought he was just after the butter, but no -- he gnawed off the corn and ate it! He was not so rude as to run right up on the table and grab it, though. It was placing paws on the leg with a meow. We went through the usual bit of holding the food item of interest out to him so he could sniff it, while saying, "See? It's CORN. Little kitties don't like corn." Usually that was the end of it, but not that time! Picture our surprise...

Malinois are not for the feint of heart, but boy are they smart.
Posted by: Piper I know I've mentioned it before, possibly more than once on the pet thread, but we got Daisy the madcap Malinois without knowing what we were getting. Some kids came by, going around this rural neighborhood, to see if this dog belonged to anyone. She was found running down the highway, no tags, no chip. I asked to take a look at her, and she ran up and licked me, just one not-too-slurpy lick on the face. ❣️ She was not full grown yet. A vet had identified her as a "part German Shepherd mix." Since our good ol' last boy died, MiladyJo and I had considered following the advice of Morons about going to the shelter to look for a low-maintenance old dog that we, a couple of well-over-29-year-olds could handle. But we got this active little pup instead. Only after we took her in did our son identify her as a Belgian Malinois. Looking up YooToobs of Malinoises, we realized what we were in for. !!! She still has a wild streak, and keeps us exercised, but she is so sweet, and also loyal and defensive of her family. And, yes, very smart. A little too smart at times!

Tomorrow night is the full Moon, but it's close enough tonight you can't tell the difference. This full Moon, the last Moon of astronomical autumn, which usually occurs in Dec, is dubbed the Cold Moon. The Cold Moon of the Long Nights. The full Moon, being opposite the Sun, does just the opposite. When the Sun is high, the Moon is low, and when the Sun is low near the winter solstice, the Moon is high. And due to the vagaries of the lunar orbit, the Moon can get higher and lower in the sky than the sun can. It's on a higher part of the 18.6 year lunistice cycle now, so the Moon will be a few degrees higher the the summer sun. And so moonlight, like sunlight in summer, will be maximized, the opposite of the short days of winter. Hence, Cold Moon on the Long Night.

Posted by: fourseasons at December 03, 2025 10:00 PM (3ek7K) Methodist Pastor Has Had Enough of Jesus-This and Jesus-That, So He Makes His Homily About the Only Thing That Really Matters, His Trans IdentityBut a lot of leftists spell it that way.A Methodist pastor in upstate New York turned a Sunday church service into a personal announcement ceremony, telling stunned worshippers that the 51-year-old spiritual leader is now transitioning and no longer identifies as male. Rev. Phillip Phaneuf of North Chili United Methodist Church in Rochester delivered the news while draped in a rainbow stole, declaring, "I get to announce with joy that I'm transitioning," and later adding, "I'm not becoming a woman, I'm giving up pretending to be a man." The pastor also told congregants that a new identity--"Phillippa," with she/her pronouns--will now be used, and that hormone treatments have already been underway for three months. Phaneuf went even further, announcing a shift to asexuality and telling the church that romance has never been a focus: "I'm in the category of what they call asexual... I am not living my life in a way that involves looking for romance." The message, delivered from the pulpit, was treated as a moment of celebration inside a denomination that has recently rewritten its doctrine to align itself with progressive gender ideology. The United Methodist Church reversed its previous teachings last year and now describes sexuality as a "sacred gift" for all "regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity." Phaneuf told Fox News Digital on Tuesday that the congregation has been "overwhelmingly affirming," and noted that the bishop was consulted beforehand and offered full institutional support. Any questions about pastoral duties were brushed aside with assurances that nothing will change spiritually--aside from the pastor's name, voice, appearance, and presentation as the hormone regimen continues.Well, and every homily will be about his Gender Journey, of course.
A trans woman named Natalie Wolf was convicted of molesting a 13-year-old girl by a UK court yesterday. Wolf was a man named Ryan Haley at the time of the attack and was addressed as a woman throughout the trial. However, when it was her turn to speak, the victim refused to address Haley as a woman, instead using the name of the man who had attacked her.See the link for more.The victim, who is now an adult, feared she would be raped by Wolf, during the attack in Sunderland, England, and told the court her "shame and self-doubt" led to her not reporting the abuse, according to the report... "I know you as Ryan Haley, a man who sexually abused me. There are few things more isolating than living in a body you don't feel safe in. I've carried shame, self-doubt and a sense of disconnection from myself," the victim told Wolf... "Ryan, you destroyed me as a child, a teenager and an adult. Today you are finally going to face justice. Today, Ryan Haley, you are going to get what you deserve," the statement concluded. Wolf was convicted of sexual activity with a child and sentenced to three and a half years in a male prison.Wolf/Haley represented himself accused the victim of lying and the jury of being hypnotized. The judge made a point of saying Haley had shown no remorse and seemed to be under the delusion that he was the victim in this case. This is in the shithole country the UK, so maybe there is some hope yet.

THIS is why we left the church in FL where we raised our sons. A Presbyterian PCUSA church, the liberal branch. To not be confused, there are other Presbyterian denominations like PCA and Orthodox who are Bible believing churches. I raised some stink eye from the pompous poobah's from Orlando at a meeting of over 200 members. We were being lied to. They were avoiding questions. My mic was cut when I asked about how they stood on abortion. One of the poohbah's, recognizing a redneck, came over to me at the break to try to smooth things over. It did not work and I was not being bad because one of our sons was next to me and would have elbowed me. Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at December 03, 2025 06:37 PM (WONhk) 13

I applaud this man. I asked Trump to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. The gay, lesbian, transgender children and other sodomites, as well as undocumented immigrants and asylum seekers. He responded by killing innocent brown fishermen and cutting off SNAP to starving families and children. Jesus spoke to us from her heart and she admonished those who seek wealth at the expense of others. Hopefully, my USAID grift will be reinstated!

I tried going to a Methodist Church for a while, and I know a lot of very good Methodists. I had a lot of friends in that church, but the problem was that whenever I tried to drill down into what they actually believed, and what their core doctrines were, it always ended up being "well whatever you want to believe is fine with us, you decide.

Meanwhile, because I am on a tear, I found an article I read decades ago from an old email, and sent to Mark Steyn and others. Defending Western countries against the invasions of barbarians post 9/11/01. I don't have a link, but perhaps someone can find one. I will transcribe as I can't copy/paste:
"A famous "moderate," Dr. Zaki Badowi,the Egyption director of the Muslim College in Ealing,has written:"Islam endeavours to expand in Britain...It hopes that one day the whole of mankind will be one Muslim community, the Ummah." In 1999, the Vatican hosted a conference of Muslim and Christian leaders, attended by the Titular Archbishop of Smyrna.He reports that a muslim participant was disarmingly frank about the purpose of islamic settlers in pluralistic Western socities.Addressing the Christian delegates from Europe, he allegedly said,"Because of our religion, we will invade you; because of your democracy, we will destroy you." Because of our democratic laws, murderers like the one last week in DC use the "not guilty" in court. They play with our laws to suit them. It is happening in the UK and Europe...for decades.

My parents and I go to Christian Reformed Churches.

The MSM will file stories of the demise of the Christian faith because of the mass exodous of mainstream churches (like the United Methodist Church).

I would have stood up and cut off his mic. I nearly stood up on the day of the vote in our large church, as the assistant "pastor" said it was because of not welcoming gheys in church.Baloney. I never knew who was gay or cared. The vote against the Presbytery was because of puttin gheys like this ugly freak in the pulpit. I am sure it was rigged vs 50/50. But we lost by a small margin to leave the denomination. Neither the traveling pastor nor this woman would meet my eyes (I really do shoot laser beams) that day as I tried to look them in the eye. The following Monday over 20 couples, all well known, requested to have our names removed. We were two of them. It was horrible.You find out quickly who your real friends are.

Hello, Horde! 😊♥️
Stuff like this crappie is why this lifelong Methodist bailed on the church many years ago. All they seemed to care about over the last couple of decades is the cutting edge of Progressivism. Now they aren't allowing congregations to split from the UMC - I think they were losing too many of the churches that actually met their financial obligations to the la4ger church body, so they put the kilos on "deserters". The idiots in charge seem to think that will keep parishioners in the denomination, and thus keep their coffers full. Joke's on them - people are just leaving anyway, and finding new church homes outside of the Methodist doctrine. Taking their money with them, too.

I was watching the video of the 'Stan "refugee" that tried to shoot those cops in VA this spring and one thing that I found interesting.
He complained about all the sorts of normal problems we deal with - government paperwork, government fees, working 9-5 and said hey it is YOUR fault my life sucks you brought me here! And...he's not completely wrong. Why would anyone expect bringing some guy from 'Stan and putting him in modern America is going to work out well? Why wouldn't you send him to a more similar culture like Jordan or Egypt? Posted by: 18-1 at December 03, 2025 05:37 PM (sKqQm) 25

The others want the free hand out train to keep chugging. "Southern Hospitality," Aftyn, my big fat arse. You simply wanted a media bite. And, what on earth are you wearing? A rodeo jacket? Wth?

They are the ones most eager to have official sanction to execute "fascists" for illegal orders. They have been yelling it at every one of their protests.

The Chaser: the WH response "Here's a Short n' Sweet message for Sabrina Carpenter: we won't apologize for deporting dangerous criminal illegal murderers, rapists, and pedophiles from our country." The representative added, referencing lyrics from Carpenter's hit song "Manchild": "Anyone who would defend these sick monsters must be stupid, or is it slow?"

And of course it was already known, to the extent anything is "known" in epidemiology, still a young and fairly rough science, that "mitigation" (including lockdowns) are ineffectual against the type of pathogen involved in 2020 (an influenza-like illness, or ILI, that was readily transmitted and already "prevalent" - which has a much more expansive definition than assumed).
There's video of a panel of top epidemiologists, a few years prior to 2020, discussing just what strategy they might pursue in the case of a serious epidemic just like C19. The discussion wasn't about "policies", which of course were known to be irrelevant to outcomes, it was about how to talk to the public, who *expected that "something could be done!" to help*. In other words, a workable PR strategy to hose down an ignorant, demanding public, shut them up while things ran their course. Which is the only outcome of such epidemics. Climate, ILI epidemics - 2 things humans are utterly unable to affect. Gives you a snapshot of the state of public understanding, and institutional collapse, in case you needed one.

Yep! Pop music has gotten so banal, if it gets taken over by AI, it's the record companies' own fault. I'm hoping we have a renaissance of indie musicians with real talent filling in the vaccuum of AI. Fingers crossed. Part of why I think young girls love the KPop Demon Hunters is the singers can actually sing! The girl that plays Rumi sings a high A in golden. Taylor and Sabrina can't hit a high A in their dreams. Hopefully real talent rises. Because the current dark ages of pop music is annoying. Posted by: LizLem at December 03, 2025 05:52 PM (gWBY1) 104

The local unions are leading protests against ICE at the Minneapolis airport.
Let me see, so you have: An illegal strike On federally controlled sensitive property I'm going to laugh so much when Trump de-certifies the union and bars the members from the entire airport. And the entire airport gets shut down except for ICE flights. And then the condition for re-opening is that the city forfeits any fees and taxes from it for the next 10 years.

Posted by: Soothsayer ====== Yep. Inferior in most ways to the original. Bogart was better and more believable than Harrison Ford who turned in his usual wooden performance, Audrey Hepburn far better than Julia D'Ormand who likewise had a lackluster performance, and at least a tie between William Holden and Greg Kinnear. Kinnear was someone that should have been put as lead in some pictures--easy charm. Holden was not pickled and sour yet and is charming in his own right.

https://instapundit.com/759764 /#comment-6804397753 It is about an NEMJ article on a pfizer mRNA flu vaccine trial. The results were really bad, but the article is positive. He goes into details, but over 65yo got the flu more and had worse adverse effects (like kidney failure...) than the control (which was a standard vaccine.) They simply did not report that and only showed the slightly positive results for those under 65 That thing they did before? Well they are going to do it again.....

Posted by: whig at December 03, 2025 05:56 PM (WDjG6) My current fave rabbit hole for Youtube vids are Gen Z producers, musicians, vocal coaches discovering the older music they didn't grow up on, and realizing how complex and sophisticated it is. Even the stuff we think of as "pop" for that era. One gen Z music producer had to take a break to calm down after hearing "Good vibrations" and "God Only Knows" from the Beach Boys. The complexity of the rhythms and tempo changes killed him in a good way. Posted by: LizLem at December 03, 2025 06:00 PM (gWBY1) 138

Guys, I have to weigh in here. I spent several years as an advisor in Afghanistan, so I know what I'm talking about.
The bureaucrats in Afghanistan did not change. As I put it, there is a guy sitting behind a desk at the Ministry who takes 2 copies of your form, stamps it, gives you one copy back, and puts it on file. Same guy, same form. He did that job for the King, for the Communists, for the Taliban, for the Americans, and now for the Taliban again. He has had periods of time over the years where he didn't get paid and worked a side job, but he kept the job because it had an apartment attached to it. He was not a Communist, he was not Taliban, and he didn't support the Americans either. He just goes to work, does his job, has the free lunch in the courtyard, and goes home at the end of the day.

Ace in the Hole starts out with Douglas riding into town.... It is a classic scene that I will not spoil
Then he goes into a hick newspaper office with the line "how'd you like to make $200?" Asserting that he is a $250 a week reporter but he is willing to work for $50. Another great line is when the other reports say to him "we're all in the same boat." and Douglas replies "I'm in the boat. You're in the water. Now swim." Lot's of fun stuff. Worth watching.

It's a lot easier to just pick an attractive singer who can sing with or without auto-tune and then buy songs from hit songwriters to make more hits.

Posted by: BurtTC at December 03, 2025 06:20 PM (z/ZBD) A whole lot of that back story is tribal. Posted by: Caesar North of the Rubicon at December 03, 2025 06:28 PM (eStot) 182

The leftists have flipped every script, e.g. so-called “refugees” are actually the perpetrators of atrocities in foreign lands. It’s really quite elegant if you look at it a certain way.
Biden was in congress lo those many years ago, to vote for cutting off aid to South Vietnam. They hung on for a while, till the ammunition ran out. Then the communists came in and started a wave of killing exceeding the war death toll, to say nothing of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. Biden then campaigned against letting any Vietnamese “Boat People”, genuine refugees, from emigration to America. Total asshole Posted by: Common Tater at December 03, 2025 06:32 PM (sSmN4) 185

China's turn in Afghanistan now. At least we won't get Mad Dog Mattis or Soviet era rationalizations from them, they're just there for the metal. Posted by: Auspex at December 03, 2025 06:34 PM (Y8DZL) 187
Carl Benjamin makes the point, a lot, that the people of England did not vote for mass immigration.
In fact, at every opportunity they've voted for the people who said they'd stop the immigration, even Brexit was a vote to get out of the EU human rights conventions that forced the acceptance of "asylum seekers". But every time they vote for the party that told them they'd end the misery, that party would get in office and never do it, and then let in more, like Boris did. The Tories are where they are now because they lied about reducing immigration for over a decade. Posted by: SpeakingOf at December 03, 2025 06:36 PM (6ydKt) 188

Posted by: Auspex Good luck to them. Even Genghis Khan had to go through there twice before the locals got the point. Posted by: FeatherBlade at December 03, 2025 06:37 PM (a+4eV) 189
Oh geez SignalGate is back after the IG report has come out.
At this point they're all but saying their entire plan was for SecArmy Driscoll to lead a military coup against Orange Man Bad. And they know the rank and file respect Hegseth so there's less than zero chance of doing that with him in charge. Posted by: Ian S. at December 03, 2025 06:37 PM (9s7jr) 190
Signalgate LOL. They're really desperate, aren't they?

Makes a lot of sense as to why American music has gone so far downhill in the past decade or more. Posted by: SpeakingOf --- There's good music it's just not the heavily merchandised stuff.
