Our local newspaper has gone from publishing six days per week to three due to lack of advertising. The internet has changed things.

Thankfully we have not gotten hit by paycuts- yet.
My boss (a regional manager) was on a thing where they were rotating them country wide, week on, week off. Then they changed to every week, but half pay until everything was back open. I joked to him that it works out the same. What? It is not like I can expect a raise this year anyway. Posted by: Aetius451AD at May 21, 2020 07:44 PM (A5zUN) 18

Some more than others. When I see that motto, I think of all the bad motivational posters I've seen over my decades of working in various industries. First off, the "We" is not you and them.

"As the shark gnaws at your limbs and you pray for death by drowning, please know that our growth is exceptional." "Please cooperate fully when security checks your pockets for office supplies as you depart" The was an ROF (reduction in force) at DuPont in the early 90s and Corporate issued one of their usual bafflegab communiques on the subject.

Visited my Internist today, in person. This is a widely respected Dr. that other doctors go to and has saved my butt twice. I've been going to him since 1975.
His advice to me was, that if suffering any symptoms of Covid-19 to go to the hospital that does instants tests, to call him day or night if positive and he would proscribe hydroxychloroquine and another drug that I can't recall. He volunteered the fact that he is taking the drug as a prophylactic, "Just like Donald Trump". I feel so much better. Posted by: Javems at May 21, 2020 08:11 PM (ofIwF) 254

Trump wore a black mask with the Presidential seal on it in an area of the Ford plant that he was asked to by Ford officials and removed it and had it in his pocket to speak to reporters out where they are making PPE and ventilators which Ford officials said was fine.He showed the mask to reporters. Nessel is a nasty little busybody with delusions of grandeur.

I'm guessing the McMichaels asked that guy to film them for defense purposes.
That makes him part of a conspiracy. Whether he knew what was intended or not (and surely was surprised by what did happen) he's in it. Word of warning, approaching someone with a shotgun in hand is pretty much aggravated assault. Unless you are LEO OR the guy just stole something and is running away. (and maybe even then). McMichaels as a LEO himself should've KNOWN this. This is where arrogance and assumptions can get you where you didn't want to go. First off, in rl you don't go waving firearms in peoples faces.

253 Visited my Internist today, in person. This is a widely respected Dr. that other doctors go to and has saved my butt twice. I've been going to him since 1975.
His advice to me was, that if suffering any symptoms of Covid-19 to go to the hospital that does instants tests, to call him day or night if positive and he would proscribe hydroxychloroquine and another drug that I can't recall. He volunteered the fact that he is taking the drug as a prophylactic, "Just like Donald Trump". I feel so much better. Posted by: Javems at May 21, 2020 08:11 PM (ofIwF) ---- I hope he doesn't make that confession to the wrong person. The Progressive Screech Brigade would try to destroy him. Hydroxy Chloriquine is being used in India as a prophylaxis for medical staff and anyone exposed to a Chinese Coronavirus infected person. They give it to their spouse and caregivers. They offerd it to the 10,000 person Mumbai Police Department. 4,500 took it, no deaths, but some minor positive cases. 5,500 didn't, nine deaths more illnesses. Parts of India's Medical staff has been using it as a prophylaxis since March. But what would those dirty wogs know, said the learned Progressives. Posted by: rd at May 21, 2020 08:28 PM (+0uDE) 377

Yep, Dave C, it looks Steve Jobs' trophy wife got tired of pouring money down that particular rathole. Our local communist rag is under new ownership once again, after the previous owner's now-ex-husband got tired of funding her hobby "newspaper". The new owners didn't fire all the communist reporters and replace them, though, so I'm sure it's only a matter of time until it's on the auction block again.

They're lining up the guy who filmed it to give them inside info on attitudes and language of the McMichaels before the incedent. (you know the "n" word and such).
I'm guessing he's just a shlub that knew these guys and they talked him into videoing them stopping Arbery. He will not stand up and will give the DA any juicy tidbits as to mental state of the McMicheals before (days/weeks before) and after the event. Anything they thought they might be able to hide from investigators (if there is any) is now going to be found out. And that's how you roll a witness.

This is what the passive risk aversion of NeverTrumpers leads to - an impotent defence of positions that never should have been in place to begin with. And it's a typical tactic the Left uses: tie up the Right with arguments that water isn't wet so they can't move on anything of consequence.

Dear Atlantic Editor,
I just got my online journalism degree. I heard about the layoffs and just wanted to throw my hat into the ring for one of those primo jobs that opened up. My bona fides are I was President pro team of our auto club and put out a biannual two page newsletter. I was also editor in chief of the local laundromat advert, so I also have experience in advertising. About myself. I like moonlit walks in the deep dark forest. I also like the feeling of old cigarette ashes rubbed on my back. My hobbies are collecting Dung Beetles and killing Stink Bugs. I hope you will give my application and resume the attention it deserves. Posted by: Traveling Man Who's Stuck At Home&&&& at May 21, 2020 08:52 PM (8nUpF) 492

the founders knew that most people will not fight for liberty.
Most humans are quite satisfied to be lead around as long as certain desires are satisfied or the opportunity to satisfy them is there. They don't want to think too hard or make judgments. Investigate to find the facts of a situation. This is why the Revolutionary war was fought by a minority of the citizens. Sure some of them may have helped but from the sounds of the privations the Army went thru somehow I doubt the degree. This is a fact of the human species and it's not specific to any ethnicity or race or country. Posted by: jakee308 at May 21, 2020 08:59 PM (/fsFg) 523

re: the sidebar about Twitch.
It's billed as purely an advisory group, they have no power, realistically it was probably never going to much more than a PR tool to say to dissatisfied users "hey, we're trying!". A couple of the people were clearly chosen for identity politics reasons and not vetted for professionalism and it went to their heads which is generating all the drama threads. There are several normal people on it and ones that are fairly trusted and professional brands on Twitch, and notably one that hoped it would be useful to hold Twitch accountable, but at this point it seems up in the air if the whole thing will just get quietly ignored.

Well, it rained steadily all day, so I applied (on line) for a burn permit, got it back by e-mail, and I flashed up my burn pile at about 4:30 this afternoon. I had hosed the pile down with old solvent from a pressurized fire extinguisher, and then splashed some gasoline on it. Soaked a rag in gasoline, lit it, and tossed on the pile. Didn't light. Rag burned out. Went and got another rag, splashed some more gasoline, dampened the rag, lit it, and tossed it. Again, pile refused to light. But I took my fire extinguisher, loaded with old solvent, and directed the stream through the flame from the burning rag. Woo-ee! Now I had a blowtorch going. Sprayed it all around, deep into the heart of the pile, and the fire took hold of the wood, and I was off to the races. I went out half an hour ago, and it's mostly burned down. Plenty of coals, scarcely any flame. There's a ring of unburned sticks around the fringe of the fire, but it doesn't amount to much volume. Once the fire is fully out, I will rake them into the center of the pit to become the seed for the next fire. Still a lot of deadwood in the hedges to clear.

I know travel teams and such play through the summer here in CA (under normal circumstances), but I hadn't heard of HS teams doing it. Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara at May 21, 2020 09:19 PM (VpTlZ) Iowa. I believe we changed from spring to summer around 1970. We HS coaches like it because then we don't have to compete with track, soccer, and golf for athletes in the spring season. Also, Legion baseball isn't that big here anymore. But I have been coaching HS baseball for 25 years, and I am starting to see a pattern where the top prospects in our state are forgoing HS baseball so they can participate in travel ball and showcases.

Iowa. I believe we changed from spring to summer around 1970. We HS coaches like it because then we don't have to compete with track, soccer, and golf for athletes in the spring season.
Posted by: Turn Two at May 21, 2020 09:34 PM (BHYVd) Interesting. I played in HS, and the tennis coach wanted me to play that, but ... the seasons ran concurrently, and I preferred baseball. I kind of regret the travel team thing in all sports. It's as though the very best play the game, and no one else even bothers playing at all. Apart from video games. I blame universities for offering athletic scholarships. You go to university to learn, not to play a sport. If you'd play a sport, go do that. For my part, I'd like to see an absolute requirement in university for calculus and introductory physics, just to weed out the non-hackers.

FOX has a complete video of him being checked by cops in a park. OK, on second thought. The arrest would be a way to get him out of the neighborhood.

On his twitter thread, he's being hammered by TCM fans. All well and good? Of course not. Because they all have to virtue signal about TCM being staffed with gays, blacks and progressives and how the sister-screwing MAGA rednecks either are too dumb to watch the channel or won't watch it because it has women, black and gay hosts. Fucking leftists take the joy out of everything. Although I shouldn't be surprised - there's a silent film board out there I pop into from time to time, but not much, because IMO real silent fans are some of the most arrogant assholes you will ever meet.
