38 I've felt like that before.

You do everything in your power to help and guide and love and get the snot kicked out of you for your efforts.

The angel is not just wounded, but has been heartbroken. Look at the slump in the shoulders. This is a creation of God. And it has been reduced to being carried by others.

42 My first impression of the litter bearers was that they were kids dressed like adults. You see that kind of thing sometimes in Central American folk art. Now I think maybe they're supposed to be dumpy adults. Kind of changes the scale of the whole scene one way or the other.

45 I'm not especially fond of this style of painting. It can be a bit bizarre to the point where it gets in the way of 'the message'. Some are better than others. This painting is still effective with its blocks of color and the center of brilliant white. I'm sure there is a commonly known Finnish story behind the image but I don't know what it is. That detracts from the effectiveness of the painting.

The contrast between this style and Hugo Simberg's portraits is significant. The portraits are much more realistic and remind me of the Scandi 'look' I like so much.

Had a cockatiel that we used to let out of its cage occasionally. One day, it decided to fly around the living room. There was a large diamond shaped window that he headed for, full steam ahead.

He had one hell of a headache after the collision, I'm sure, but did leave a pretty funny dust print on the window.

My understanding is Angels have no gender. Yes, they are depicted in art and writings as male/female, but that is just to help us understand them.

The also have no bodily form. They are spiritual, non-corporeal beings. But again, art so . . .

exactly. As gets referenced by writers who think about it, an angel appears as whatever those who experience them expect to see. I remember one sitcom where Dolly Parton appeared as an angel to someone who was sick, and she asked "why do you look like Dolly Parton?" and the obvious answer was "well that was what you expected, wasn't it?" (the person admitted she was right)

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

how the troops were vetted for DC duty:

The vetting is easy. They ask each person on the detail to repeat "Joe Biden is e Kindest, Bravest, Warmest, most Wonderful Human Being I have ever know in my life." Then they throw a copy of the US Constitution down on the ground in front of them and tell them to stomp on it with a muddy boot. If they pass those two tests, they're good to go.

anyone who doesn't pass this test will be quietly released at the end of their current term. Within a couple of years, all military personel will be on board from top to bottom.

294 The FCC has warned ham radio operators to watch what they say:

The Bureau has become aware of discussions on social media platforms suggesting that certain radio services regulated by the Commission may be an alternative to social media platforms for groups to communicate and coordinate future activities. The Bureau recognizes that these services can be used for a wide range of permitted purposes, including speech that is protected under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Amateur and Personal Radio Services, however, may not be used to commit or facilitate crimes.

Specifically, the Bureau reminds amateur licensees that they are prohibited from transmitting "communications intended to facilitate a criminal act" or "messages encoded for the purpose of obscuring their meaning." 47 CFR 97.113(a)(4).

It's also illegal to key on a radio if you do not have a GMSR or Ham license.

As I said in the EMT, the FCC must have gotten a metric fuckton of of GMSR and Ham license requests in the last couple of weeks, with the deplatforming and the general state of the country.

Even the full power of the NSA couldn't monitor that amount of spectrum.

But it's looking like they are going to prioritize "domestic terrorism." over foreign terror.

Which looking at the last 50 years, foreign terror monitoring has not really been a priority of the LE/IC.

True that, but that's why the Ohr's communicated that way, it's really not possible to record every channel in the radio spectrum.

So expect the FCC to tighten licensing for GMSR and HAM.

That doesn't mean you can't communicate over that spectrum it just means that they will have another hammer to go after people.

The incompetence will be instructive to many idiots who thought they would be better off without Trump, so in the long run it may not be a bad thing. But in the short run it will suck.

I keep thinking about the Old Testament Israelites, who kept screwing up and getting punished by God, and then they would straighten out for a while and things would be great, and then they would start worshipping idols again. We're in the "being punished by God" phase. Learn from it.

447 I need to put this internet thingy down for a while because quite frankly y'all are scaring the shit out of me. Not saying I am ever the bravest guy that ever lived but I have stared across the East/West German border and even been on the eastern side. I have stood toe to toe with N. Koreans at the DMZ. But right now I want to throw up and maybe it is because of information overload or I am in denial but this can not be happening to this country. My country. God be with us. Just know this, when the shooting starts I will be on the side that believes in the country that our founding fathers envisioned.

448 morning. another day of excitement I am sure.
Is this the day we get to hear all of the libs fantasize about how they wish they were in Selma fighting for equality? And at the same time today telling us all that white privilege is real and telling us the original sin of slavery is something we can never atone for?
Just asking.

449 Remember when life in America was going to end and freedom extinguished overnight because B. Hussein was elected twice?

I sure miss those days.

And then we avoided Frau Gruppencankles and finally got a voice that broke the old Uniparty deception.

450 Remember when we were going to be stuck in the Middle East forever because we were so dependent on oil and then fracking changed the equation.

Remember when giant paper mache puppets roamed the streets of DC and American boys were coming home in flag draped coffins for Baghdad? And then we broke Al Qaeda and exterminated their nests all around the globe?

I think we're looking at Biden's proposed moves in the first 100 days, and we know that things like packing the court are now discussed openly; it's no longer the kind of idea that would get someone dismissed as a kook.

453 Actually bad for Canada, good for Warren Buffett. Here's the thing - most of that oil is moving anyway, it's just taking the rails instead of a pipeline. Buffett owns BNSF.

Well, the blackface fag in Ottawa won't care.

454 285 I don't know, a lot of people here sound like they care more about dunking on Jackstraw than winning anything.

======================
I see this whining but I have seen very little "dunking on Jackstraw". We all lost. I do think it was a little surprising, after all the talk about enjoying his scotch, that he left the board but that's a quibble, and it may well be he is depressed (like all of us) more than he was afraid to take some kidding. We all now know with certainty the FBI/DOJ cabal was able to dunk on America, by delaying justice from 2017 until...never. That's what matters-- Justice delayed is justice denied.

455 It was a great art pick, CBD.
