Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius at June 29, 2022 09:35 AM (txdEq)

32 SPOILER
.
.
.
Propaganda Campaign (1889) is even more political, and Buland's stark rendering of its figures makes them pop out, almost like cut-outs.

A travelling salesman is in the home of a poor family, selling books and coloured prints to the head of the household. That in his left hand shows the populist politician General Boulanger, and the salesman's motives combine politics with business. His buttonhole rosette declares his role as a canvasser for the General.

The Morning Report — 6/29/22

Good morning, kids. Wednesday and there's some good news to report this morning, despite the common, undergirding theme to all is that they are hallmarks of a third world banana republic. First up, on the election rigging front, that effort was smacked down in the courts in New York and Louisiana.

In New York, that states Supreme Court struck down a Rotten Apple edict granting voting rights to foreign nationals while down in Louisiana, the Supreme Court of the US yet again delivered another smackdown to the Left by restoring Republican-drawn lines in that state ahead of the midterms, thwarting, at least for now, the Dems' effort to create a second black-majority district.

SCOTUS is on a roll, first with Roe, Bruen and the football coach praying case and now this. Even with all of these cases, it's important to not apply a venturi effect to our nether regions since aside from Alito and Thomas the other advertisted-as-originalist judges may yet go off the rails in the future. But these cases, especially the first three, were absolute titanic wins.

Next, in the show trial/kangaroo court department, the titanic bombshell evidence that was sure to destroy Donald Trump and absolutely prove it was he who led an attempted insurrection to overthrow Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants' landslide victory came off like another Acme trick cigar in Wile E. Coyote's mouth.

On Tuesday, the liberal media soiled themselves over the so-called bombshell story that on January 6, 2021, President Trump grabbed the steering wheel of the presidential limo and then lunged at a Secret Service agent because he wanted to join the protesters at the Capitol.
The story came courtesy of Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide to Trump’s chief of staff, Mark Meadows. . .

I'll be damned if I'm going to give this fucking low-budget turd of a fiction any oxygen. Let us jump ahead.

“A source close to the Secret Service tells me both Bobby Engel, the lead agent, and the presidential limousine/SUV driver are prepared to testify under oath that neither man was assaulted and that Mr. Trump never lunged for the steering wheel,” Alexander tweeted Tuesday evening.
Trump’s former acting director of national intelligence, Richard Grenell, slammed the committee for allowing this testimony to not be challenged.
“So a junior staffer was pressured by @Liz_Cheney to lie under oath,” he tweeted. “Why wasn’t there a single committee member asking her if she had proof? This performance collapsed in an hour.”
“The DC media is corrupt and sick,” he concluded.
Soon after Alexander revealed that his sources challenged the story, Hutchinson’s lawyer, Jody Hunt, quickly attempted to walk back her testimony.
“Ms. Hutchinson testified, under oath, and recounted what she was told,” Hunt tweeted. “Those with knowledge of the episode also should testify under oath.”

Given that this entire committee is a farce, which alarmingly has very real, tragic consequences especially for the scores of innocent Americans rotting in the Garland Archipelago as political prisoners — yet another indicator that America as founded is dead — and that the original lie of Trump/Putin collusion and the Moscow Motel Micturition Myth was exploded long ago, anyone with more than the two damaged synapses in Joey Soft-Serves brain case could see this story was completely laughable.

Which brings us to another banana republic identifier, propaganda. I give you Bret Baier.

Discussing the testimony from Mark Meadows’ former aide Cassidy Hutchinson about Donald Trump, Baier said, “Inside the limo saying he wanted to go up to Capitol Hill. They said you have to go to the White House. According to her testimony, he said, I’m the f-ing president. Take me there, and goes to grab at him. This testimony is, first of all, stunning because we haven’t heard this. Two, it is compelling because of her proximity to power all of these people directly having conversations with her". . .
. . . He added, “She had another, obviously, another session behind the scenes with the committee they are playing the sound bites from and realized the power of this testimony. Perhaps politically, in the wake of Roe v. Wade and everything else to keep January 6 on the front burner. Bottom line, the testimony is stunning, and we are going to likely hear from the former president and his reaction to all of this, in one way or another. But you also have other officials, Pat Cipollone, former White House counsel. You have others who are weighing in here, behind the scenes through her testimony. Listen, I think it does move the ball in this hearing.”

The only ball that moved in that hearing was the shared, shriveled raisin-like uni-testicle of Adams Kinzinger and Schiff-for-Brains as it shot up from their scrotum into their throats. As for Baier, the only difference between him and a fireplug is that a rabid dog wouldn't even lift its leg to piss on him.

To wrap things up, along with a collapsing economy, a devalued dollar, shortages of food and other staples, stagflation and the intentional dismantling of the fossil fuel industry, we have a wide open border and mass migration that puts even more pressure on the aforementioned while threatening to subsume our culture and turn us into an actual third world predominantly latin American failed state. This too, like $6.00 a gallon gas, is something that cannot be hidden from the citizenry especially when several dozen illegal migrants are found dead inside of a truck. So what does the junta do? You guessed it.

Answering a question about the White House’s response to criticism of Biden for the tragedy, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre first tried to deflect by pretending to be concerned about those who lost their lives and their families.
“So, 46 people died — right? — in the state of Texas, and so — and others, as I just mentioned, are still fighting for their lives,” she said. “So we’re still learning their names. Their families are still learning they lost loved ones, as when a tragic situation normally happens.”
After that, she insisted that the White House wants to hold human smugglers accountable before serving the biggest whopper you’ve ever heard.
“But the fact of the matter is the border is closed,” she said, “which is in part why you see people trying to make this dangerous journey using smuggling networks.”
Umm, what? The border is closed? Does anyone want to tell that to the countless number of illegal immigrants headed to our southern border right now or the illegal immigrants who are being housed in government facilities or quite literally shipped to other states in the country’s interior?

And so we laugh the laughter of the damned.

Saints of the Day
St. Peter and St. Paul (1st c.) were the foremost Apostles of Jesus Christ; St. Peter was the leader of the Twelve, while St. Paul followed Christ after His ascension into heaven. Together the two saints are the founders of the Church in Rome through their apostolic preaching, ministry, and martyrdom in that city. They are the solid rock on which the foundation of the Catholic Church is built. They transformed the capital of the Roman Empire into the heart of the Church, with the mission to radiate the Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ throughout the world. Both saints were martyred in close proximity to one another; Peter first, then Paul, though some traditions claim they were killed on the same day. St. Peter was crucified upside down and buried on the hill of the Vatican where St. Peter's Basilica now stands. St. Paul was beheaded on the via Ostia and buried where the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls now stands. St. Peter and St. Paul are the patron saints of Rome.

31 These migrants were found in a semi trailer, correct? How, precisely, does one transit such a vehicle across the southern border without traveling through a border checkpoint? I'm no expert on vehicular logistics, but I'm fairly certain that tractor trailers are not particularly suited for off- road operations unless fitted out explicitly for agricultural or construction (which often renders the vehicle not road legal).

That depends on whether those names were part of a public record. There was a reporter by the name of Christian Trejbal at the Roanoake Times that released the names of every person who had a carry permit. His argument was that it was publicly available.

Yet the FDA advisory panel was positively giddy at the prospect of jabbing everyone, including babies with the re-tooled, untested COVID vaxx with the Omicron spike. Just make a new spike mRNA and start jabbing without trials. Jabby jab jab!

That is not how cows die from some sort of natural stress event. In natural events the weakest die first then stronger animals, they don't all go at once, which happened in this event. Even disease generally follows the weakest go first extinction scenario. Poison, on the other hand, does not.

Even with all of these cases, it's important to not apply a venturi effect to our nether regions since aside from Alito and Thomas the other advertisted-as-originalist judges may yet go off the rails in the future. But these cases, especially the first three, were absolute titanic wins.

Yes. If history is our guide - and I see no reason it shouldn't be - the three new justices will eventually feel their power and let the hate flow through them as they move to the left. For now, though, they're delivering a lot of victories. If this behavior continues, they will be the first crop of justices that breaks the historical mold of lurching toward state power once seated.

The world is so desperate for American oil that Macron publicly begs for it, American inflation is raging and more economists are finally acknowledging it is only curable via more domestic drilling, and consumers are entering July 4 holiday travel facing world record gas prices. Despite all of these rotten facts, the Junta stolidly refuses to change course.

278 Insurance companies have a concept called "Attractive Nuisance". What this means, for example you're not allowed to put a trampoline in your front yard right next to the sidewalk where little kids walk to school.

Washington DC politicians have created an "Attractive Nuisance" by their policies - generous welfare "benefits" and a policy of de-criminalizing every aspect of people everywhere to make their way to America illegally. So-called "Birthright citizenship" interpretations of the constitution have made it a crisis.

That's why they are finding tractor trailers full of dead migrants - and then they have the audacity to blame others for the situation they cause.

302 SCOTUS had original jurisdiction over Trump's election challenge but voted 7 to 2 to bar it from being filed. So it never got on the docket, and the evidence never got into the courthouse and the permanent record. There was never a ruling on the merits, even to dismiss it. It's as if it never happened.

The two votes were Alito and Thomas. Roberts browbeat the three newbies into not joing the two, saying it would be the end of SCOTUS. Since then they've wised up, and grown some real balls. Alito/Thomas have been running things, and Roberts is just a squish in the middle.

349 The buzzword to listen for is "disqualification." The J6 committee believes it has the authority to disqualify Trump from running for political office. They base this assumption on the "evidence" their show trial has ginned up. Note there has not been any pushback on any of the accusations the committee has leveled against Trump and his supporters.

Pushing Trump off the political stage is the goal.

No doubt there are those on the committee that would like to see Trump put in prison. Personally I think that's out of reach, but I think some will push hard for it.

Egypt has about $35B in foreign exchange reserves, so this amounts to around 14% of their ForEx. That's big. Egypt's gonna be in hock to the World Bank for a while.

I strongly suspect that two years is optimistic. The decline has to stop before the new growth can begin. A lot of 401(k) value is also debt-driven (because the market inflation was debt-driven), and with higher interest it is going to take a longer than usual for prior highs to be seen again.

I kind of doubt they nationalize the retirement accounts unless it is purely a punitive measure. It would be a pointless fiscal measure. They can't raise money with it, because they'd have to sell the assets and selling the assets all at once would crash the market. Even scheduling the sell-off over fifty years would permanently depress the market. Just nationalizing the system would cause a sell-off and steep decline. They might try to get clever with some kind of Treasury-bonds-for-equity swap, but it doesn't address the core problem.

Unless the only goal is to steal the money to hurt us or to cause pseudo-nationalization, they won't do it because there's no way to steal the money to help themselves.

This last became an obvious position after the 2018 election, when their election night coverage was breathlessly enthusiastic about the Dems taking the House and they made some absurdly early calls.

Fox News' news division was never conservative, and now it's firmly on the left. Their commentary/editorial division is where there are some conservatives.

FOX News' workforce is based in NY and DC. NYC is probably 5:1 skewed Dem, and DC is probably 20:1 skewed Dem. No way that you can draw a majority conservative workforce from liberal labor pools like that one.

The one thing that could result in serious, meaningful, large-scale food pressure in this country is government policy. We produce enough food for more than a billion people. We also have a lot of money. We can afford to eat our own produce and outbid the rest of the planet on whatever else we need. It will suck and it will make us poor and it will reduce variety, but we can do it and we're not going to starve.

It was; but also Johnny Reb had publicly and openly engaged in an actual, real insurrection with guns and everything. The left right now is trying to push their belief that "words are violence", and convict people based on that and nothing else. Which is pure Stalinism.

SCOTUS could go further and overturn the Chevron doctrine, where courts defer to any ageny action, even when Congress wasn't clear in its grant of authority, so long as it's not entirely batshit crazy.

If so, many of us believe it would be bigger than overturning Roe. This is Kav's declared mission in life.

Daily Tech News 29 June 2022

Top Story

Ugly monkey JPEG company Yuga Labs has sued "conceptual artist" Ryder Ripps for - and I quote - false designation of origin, false advertising, cybersquatting, trademark infringement, unfair competition, unjust enrichment, conversion, and tortious interference for copying its ugly monkey JPEGs. (The Verge)

Ripps responded:
Ripps (who has also sold original NFTs) described his work as a twist on appropriation art, exploring "the power of NFTs to change meaning, establish provenance, and evade censorship." He's run similar projects before, including selling a slightly modified version of a CryptoPunk designed to poke fun at the series. "The lawsuit grossly mischaracterizes the RR/BAYC project," he said in a statement on Twitter, asserting that buyers were explicitly informed they weren't buying an official Bored Ape.
This is a clear admission of copyright infringement and Yuga Labs would win this one in a walk except that, um, nowhere in that litany of offences to they mention copyright infringement.

But calling it RR/BAYC is likely enough the land him in hot water. If I called my company IBM (NA) with the fine print saying *not actually I doubt the judge would be too impressed either.

19 While i wouldn't mind seeing any NFT group get screwed by the stupidity of the whole concept, I'll actually root for BAYC just because the guy they're suing honestly tried to claim what they do is racist (what is racist is seeing a monkey and always first associating it with black people, which Ripps is the one doing)

Also, to go with the new Lego video, I finished my Lego Optimus Prime today. It's a neat toy since it can transform, and I like the new color bricks (though it's been so long since I got a lego set the colors might be used a lot) It's surprisingly big, which means they couldn't include the trailer or the thing would be like 2 feet long. I hope they have some follow up Transformers, but not BumbleBee since he F'n sucks (and they won't make Megatron probably since he's a gun, though Optimus does have his blaster gun)

If they have another good deal (i got 2 free sets with this one) I've thought about getting the Mustang or Seinfeld set (I missed out on the Aston Martin DB5 from the lego store) I honestly think, even though I only own like 2 sets from the last 30 years. This would be what i splurged on if I ever win the Lotto.....and hookers of course

Oops! Too late! I've adopted my quota. Though she sounds like a great little cat.

51 So have binged watched all three seasons of Log Horizon on CrunchyRoll and the third season is still weaker than the first two seasons.

First the new OP by Band Maid lacks the same appeal to me as the original OP. Then there is the translation which meant Lanessia becomes Ranessia, Teachings are now Oral Arts, and while Minami is unchanged the main setting is now called Akiba. And what annoys me the most is the translators decided to give Nyanta a 'purr' in the sub-title translation. The story arcs themselves are okay but due to the limited number of episodes, the same depth of story seen in the first two seasons is missing.

Still want season four to be released to see how Shiro finally faces Index down. And of course Kanami.

Embarrassed to say it, but I had to get a technician out to change the water filter on the refrigerator we bought in December.

I had gotten the old one out but could not figure out for the life of me how the new one went in. The owners manual and the YouTube video had no relation to what I was going through.

The technician was very nice about it and said it's a more frequent problem than mine. He spent more time talking to Delilah than it took to replace it.

161 I think the short answer is "No".

The 1968 consolidated budget act or somesuch, started counting social security as revenue (to make the government finance balance sheet look much better) formerly it was a separate account.

There is no social security account, although there are "special" T bills. The only special thing about them is they don't trade on the open market. I don't claim to understand it, but they have to borrow more money to pay social security out.

The question is - who gets shafted when things get dicey? Foreign creditors or social security recipients.

The Democrat cheerleaders are stuck in the past. Juan Williams still believes Hillary is a savior.

Fox News political analyst Juan Williams is ridiculously claiming that Hillary Clinton can save the Democrats from a bloodbath in the 2022 midterms by carping about women's rights after SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade.
In a fevered, hallucinatory political wet dream, Williams evidently believes that Clinton is still the savior of the Democratic Party.
In May, before the leak of the ruling by the Supreme Court surfaced, Clinton warned CBS News that rescinding the constitutional right to abortion "is incredibly dangerous and it is not just about a woman's right to choose. It is about much more than that."

Trump Is In Deep, Deep, Deep, Deep Trouble
The testimony this afternoon of Cassidy Hutchinson, the aide to Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows, cannot be dismissed. If what she has testified to, sworn under oath, is not countered or contradicted by Meadows or Trump’s White House counsel Pat Cippolone—either under oath themselves or eventually before a grand jury—then there is a credible criminal case that Trump violated the law in ways not dealt with by the second impeachment, and from which he would not be shielded by executive privilege. It’s possible her memory is faulty, or that she is a fantasist and that none of this happened. But she has reported directly on things that went on inside the White House and around the Oval Office on January 5 and January 6 that go beyond the merely circumstantial.
The case the January 6 committee is building in a far more painstaking manner than anyone could have expected is that Trump knowingly encouraged the formation of, and participated in the forward deployment, of a crowd he knew was armed. He was told so on January 6. We also know now that Trump had told Meadows to make contact on January 5 with Roger Stone and Michael Flynn, both of whom were communicating with the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers—some of whose leaders have been charged with seditious conspiracy. We also know that Meadows told Hutchinson he was going to go to the suite personally but she either changed his mind or he did and he called instead. What was said on the call we do not yet know.
Hutchinson testified that Trump was told by the Secret Service they were making the crowd at the rally on January 6 go through magnetometers because they were armed. Trump was angered by this, something she knew because she was “in the vicinity of a conversation where I overheard the president say something to the effect of, ‘You know, I don’t f-ing care that they have weapons. They’re not here to hurt me. Take the f-ing mags away. Let my people in. They can march to the Capitol from here. Let the people in. Take the f-ing mags away.’”

No one ever stated Podhoretz could think outside the potato chip bag.

You’re going to hear people call this "hearsay." It is not hearsay. It is direct testimony of contemporaneous things said in Flotz's earshot about events that were taking place while he was listening.

but he bought the building with no contigencies, which was the reason I dropped the price

Start with pork shoulder/boston butt. It's nearly impossible to screw up too badly provided that you follow the advice of the millions of articles and YT videos on the subject.

Follow with other meats and things, such as, but not limited to: Brisket, ribs (beef and pork), tri-tip, steak, rib roasts, jalapeno peppers and garlic (then throw those in a blender with some olive oil for a dynamite taco sauce), etc. etc.

If you don't have one already, invest in a good meat thermometer. I personally use the Thermapen by Thermoworks, but other less expensive options exist.

Mackerel is a good option. Some people throw them back.

From Wikipedia:
"The flesh of mackerel spoils quickly, especially in the tropics, and can cause scombroid food poisoning. Accordingly, it should be eaten on the day of capture, unless properly refrigerated or cured."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mackerel

My friend just smokes them instead. Volunteers to take everyone else's throwbacks. Come out pretty good.

196 A trendy Los Angeles County community has voted to reduce law enforcement funding despite escalating crime that was up 137% earlier in the year and public backlash.

The budget for the next two fiscal years will leave West Hollywood with up to five fewer Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies on patrol. At the same time the council approved increasing funding for a cultural arts festival.

197 For someone wanting to put a toe in the shallow end of the smoking pool and not ready to smoke a brisket at 225F for 20 hours: Try a whole chicken at a higher temperature. Say 2 or 3 hours around 275. If you use Apple wood the skin will be inedible, even the dog won't eat it, but the meat underneath will have a good flavor.

This. Start small. Spatchcock a whole chicken. Or do a chuck roast. Something in the 3 - 4 - 5 lb range. I just started smoking meats on an offset at the end of last summer and it's been a learning experience. It's different from grilling fast over direct heat.

Learn the difference between 'done' and 'ready'. It's a big difference, especially in the briskets and pork butts/shoulders.

Dear God, no. Not that for your first cook. I tried a 10lb pork butt for my first, thinking it was going to be easy pulled pork bbq. It went on at noon, wrapped up at 6 hrs, pulled at 8 hrs, and rested an hour. It was 'done' but not 'ready' to shred. Not tender enough by far. The shoulder bone would not release. It would have needed another 5 - 6 hours to get from 'done' to 'ready'.

Keep a detailed logbook of your cook plans, cook notes as you go (actual happenings), and results.

Never got a taste for bourbon, but I love a good rye. You're right, though, there's not a lot of variation. So I take tours of all the other stuff you mention, except rum, and have some rye when I'm in the mood for rye. Also, the Sazerac cocktail, made with Sazerac rye, is so amazingly good that I have to come back to it often.

Butane here is commonly sold in cans as fuel for camp stoves or table-top hot plates. And it is the fuel for gas lighters. With it's higher boiling point, it doesn't take much of a "pressure vessel" to keep it confined as a liquid.

354 We recently rented a car from Enterprise. I had asked for a small car just to run around town while ours was in the shop. When we went to pick it up they told us they had to change our car out for another. They gave us a Dodge Charger, all black with dark tinted windows. Fast AF. My husband hated giving it back.

405 I don't drink bourbon, but drink rye, single malt scotch, and a special kind of mezcal called bacanora.

The bacanora brands we can get here is Rancho Tepua and Aguamiel.

We were introduced to rye via a gift bottle of Koval, a small Chicago distillery. We can't get that everywhere we go, so we go with Woodford Reserve, $30 at Walmart.

Scotch, either 12 year old Glenfiddich, or if flush, Talisker 10 year old.

The rye and scotch is done in a short whiskey glass, a single clear ice cube. I make the cubes four at a time using a special mold with insulated box wrap from Das Tool Kit, available from Amazon at about $18.

In some markets you can get clear cube cocktail ice at the stores but not where we spend half the year, so there's the mold.

By the standards they set themselves covering stuff in 2020 and 2021 in places all over the country, Jan 6 was a mostly peaceful protest.

I write to everyone I can get an email contact for at Fox. I ask, why do you parrot the propaganda pushed by the left, and call it "the Capitol riot." I tell them that calling it that is lying and why do they want to keep repeating a lie to viewers?

453 The only way I know to make clear ice in the freezer is to do it the way a lake freezes. The heat leaves the water from its top surface down, and the sides and bottom, don't freeze. That is what my Das Took Kit ice mold does. It is a silicone mold for four cubes 1 1/2 inch each, that fits into a plastic square tub, water under, and the tub fits snug like a plug into a foam box. The foam and water under the mold ensures the cubes freeze from the top down.

Clear as crystal.

Before refrigeration, ice came from frozen lakes, and of course was clear. Great big sawn blocks.

Get a cheap foam box cooler for a six pack, throw away the top, fill it to near the brim with water, stick in the freezer, and remember to take it out after only 10 to 12 hours.

You will emulate the ice on a frozen pond. Two inches or more of hard clear ice on top. Take it all out of the cooler, use a saw and mallet, make cubes.

There are "gourmet ice" machines that will make clear ice. They are spendy, several thousand bucks.

They use the icicle method. Freeze from the inside out. A slow trickle of running water is circulated over the molds, gradually freezing in layers. That's the way icicles form.

1) Democrats tend to do better in elections where the voters don't see a difference between the candidates - compare 2008/12 with 2004 or 2016.

2) With hyper inflation, blackouts, and hunger likely for this fall, I suspect someone saying "mean" things about trannies or illegals isn't going to matter to the voters.

It's a back tat, right? Here's an interesting experiment you can conduct with a trusted friend. Have him/her touch various parts of the body with two sharp pointed probes at various widths while your eyes are closed; report when you can detect TWO probes. This is a measure of nerve endings density.

Your back has the fewest density, iirc, of your entire body. Over an inch, again iirc. Fingertips are very sensitive (high nerve density) so the gap won't be very wide at all.

509 As I've said before I'm more of a rum person at the moment, exploring that a bit - as ballistic said above, there are a tremendous variety of rums (and tequilas and mezcals).

Rum is the most global spirit, probably, as it's produced around the world, anywhere sugar cane is/was grown. From Nicaragua to Reunion to Fiji. And part of the variety comes from a lack of order, or rules. The French/formerly French territories tend to have fairly strict rules, like AOCs in France for wine. Some countries have rules, some new ones are considering them, but meanwhile it's a truly diverse field.

Straight from cane juice (agricole, predominant style in French areas), or from molasses, pot or column still or both, finishing in all the different things other spirit makers are using these days (ex-bourbon, cognac, sherry, port, zinfandel casks). Barrel proof or 80 proof.

And plenty of great bottles for bourbon lovers wanting to tiptoe in.

515 The left is supposedly helping "extremist" Republican candidates in the primaries. I suspect this isn't going to work out like they want

Pritzker in 2018 found 400k more votes in Cook County than anyone else in the decade prior (despite Illinois leading the nation in people fleeing the state before CA's covid meltdown), so he's got margin for error.

So, for the life of this fence, say 20 years, pay us the land rent for 60 square feet, and we're good. When the fence needs to be replaced, put it in the proper place, and the land rent ends."

532 For any bourboniacs looking to try a rum, good place to start (less expensive) would be R.L. Seale's 10-yr, or (more expensive) Real McCoy 12-yr (80 proof version).

Both bottles have bourbon-ish notes, Real McCoy very much so.

Both by Foursquare Distillery in Barbados, run by a purist maniac and very good rum maker, Richard Seale. Purist as in no additives, ever. Bit of an evangelist on it, trying to get Barbados to require different labeling for additives. Additives (mostly sugar) are a bit of a battleground in the rum world. The oldest most prestigious spirits in the world, like cognac, permit some added sugar, but some in the rum world want only "pure" rums.

What I like about many of the prepper blogs is they are moving toward "know/befriend" your neighbor, as opposed to living in a bunker till the smoke and nuke fallout recede.

BUT, I do see some potential for almost apocalyptic shortages .. though I put those odds at maybe 30% (in the USA, much higher in the third world). Still ... that is worth prepping against.

564 Kindltot cachaca (can't do the cedilla) is also wildly diverse, though I think it's almost all agricole (from cane juice). I spent a lot of time in Brazil years ago, but at the time was not drinking much hard stuff. "Aguardente" is also used in Brazil for cane liquor. "Pinga" (a drop) was the most common colloquial term I heard.

After I make further progress with rum, was hoping to start with cachaca (aged stuff, not mixing), but availability is even more of a problem than with rum, which is a big problem. Europe is the biggest aged rum market, though I sense the American one is growing, fast.

And Colombia has aged rums, of course. Dictador is the brand easiest to find here. Known for their interesting flavor profile, usually including coffee notes. Have a bottle of the 12-yr in the pantry awaiting its turn.

The '71 & '72 Superbeetles shared the flat dashboard and windshield with all "conventional" Beetles, but sported MacPherson strut front suspension, and about a 6" stretch to the nose. Meant the spare was laid down flat in a "well", beneath the load-floor of the trunk.

Best two years and the best models of the Beetle, I think. The '73 and onward curved dash (foam injected POS), could not accommodate modifications, like the flat dash could. And the Sun ate those foam dashes like sunburn on a red-headed stepchild.

Pretty much agree. The MacPherson strut was not as strong as the torsion bar front end it replaced, but did give more trunk space. The '71 Super is a pretty good counterfeit Beetle, but the '73 is just plain odd.

VW should have left the Beetle as it was, and done the strut job on the Type III vehicles. Might have made them better sellers.

I was proud to have mowed down some edges and food plots, then meandered out to the grapes and discovered the few Jap Beetles had become a full invasion on the grapes. .. that was about 8:10pm .. filled the 4 gallon back pack sprayer and hopefully they will all be dead dy early tomorrow. (the Sevin I bought 20 years ago still works).

Posted by: zombie Eugene V Debs at June 29, 2022 12:17 AM (xhaym)

I know the Brits did that, and they used RAC (Royal Automobile Club) horsepower, the calculation of which placed entirely too much emphasis on engine cylinder bore. So the Brits thereupon built engines with tiny pistons, and great long strokes, like tractor engines.

The Panhard has two cylinders, about 800 cc, and makes 50 HP from that. Hemi heads, torsion valve springs, and full roller bearing crank. Redlined at 7000 RPM, and it has a tach, too. Pretty zippy, for a car of that tiny displacement.

Bagasse does smell like well used anus, so I get your point. It's "bottom of the barrel" sugar production process from sugarcane.

Yes. The Europeans, including the Brits, over the decades since cars came on the road, used to have different licensing costs depending on 'factors'. Tried factors have been: engine capacity - so a 1500cc engine is always 1496cc or similar even today; wheel diameter - big rims or big tires would incur higher fees; curb weight - which is what is mostly used today if there is a sliding scale; possibly others that I don't know about.

Their 412 series was an attempt at a "Modern" VW, and it looked like it'd work out well, on paper. You know where that effort went, of course.

The aftermarket sold all manner of curative, stronger and better geometry solutions to the SuperBeetle's Strut Suspension. Including disc brakes, Bosch dampers, shorter spring-stacks, anti-sway bars, tower braces, larger ball-joint/control arm assemblies, the works.

A SuperBeetle with upgraded "legs" on all four corners, a mild boost to engine tune, and radial tires on slightly wider wheels, and wow, what a difference!

649 "You sure you ain't got anything else to tell me muchacho?", Jim asked staring at the illegal alien, who was presently bobbing in the lake in his life jacket, his wrists duct taped to the handle of the ski rope.

The Latino man still spitting out water and coughing managed a defiant reply. "Chinga tu madre!" he shouted toward the boat.

Jim smiled, lit his cigar, and poured a fresh splash of bourbon into his favorite bourbon glass (a novelty glass with a 5.56 round embedded into the side to make it appear it was being shot). He nodded to his cohort who looked back at him awaiting instruction.

"Give her another lap, Ben", Jim said to his freakishly large friend sitting at the wheel of the bass boat. "We'll make him a true drug mule until he talks."

"HA HA! IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE HE MULES FENTANYL ACROSS THE BORDER AND WE ARE DRAGGING HIM ACROSS THE LAKE!", Ben belted out in his usually obnoxiously overly-loud volume...

"Too bad there ain't bass big enough to hit that lure" he thought to himself, before holding up his hand and motioning for Ben to throttle down after a minute had passed.

Jim had seen a lot in his days, and as he scratched his grey goatee with his deeply tanned hand, he recalled his friend at the rifle range, who had recently lost his granddaughter to a fentanyl overdose and the single tear the rolled down his face when he told Jim of his loss.

Jim began to retrieve the line and pulled the man to the edge of the boat. "No habla Ingles" he gasped, still trying to catch his breath. Jim flicked the remaining nub of his cigar out into the lake, and picked up the small oar underneath the seat and hit the Mexican squarely in the head.

"Please. I tell you what you want. Please, no mas" the Mexican cried out.

Jim cracked a wry smile and looked back at his compatriot "See Ben, just like a billiard ball. The harder you hit 'em the more English you get out of them."

The entire engine comes out pretty easily, but the silly Frenchmen attached the motor mounts to the exhaust header pipes, and then used rubber biscuits loaded in shear to support the engine. Needless to say, when the car came to me, the rubber biscuits were peeled off their metal backing, and the exhaust pipes rested on a part of the frame. I made up some custom brackets, and used a pair of Studebaker biscuit mounts, but loaded in compression instead of shear. Seems to work OK.

I don't think this is remotely true considering it requires tropical / near-tropical climate for the source. Vodka or clear spirits have sources that can be grown at any latitude on earth and are. You can grow potatoes anywhere on earth, to say nothing of grains.

I've mastered the art of making my own simple syrup with lime juice...

It's a 2:1 mixture of cane sugar and water heated on the stove (not boiled!) until the sugar has dissolved, and when it has cooled, I had one (1) part of lime juice...

It's a perfect addition to crushed ice, water, and vodka served in a Mason jar!

Probably wards off scurvy, too!

You are right that sugarcane grows at the Equator, in the tropics, and a bit further south - coastal Natal is a vast area of sugarcane. It needs abundant rainfall during the growing season and then relative dryness for the harvest to prevent rot. So not a semi-arid grower. The Western Cape, at the same latitude, has a Mediterranean climate, cooler and not enough rainfall.

"C" Rations for the win. It's what I fed on as a young USAF puke, training, in the field. Which was often.

"K" rations were inferior, and I was well out of the Service before the MRE era. But, I could live on "C" rats for as long as it took for things to even out. I can even cook the Ham & Beans or Limas into something edible, with a few trades.

Tushonka in its infinite varieties was not only bought, but made at home. Canning in actual cans, not "canning" in Mason jars.

Funny, when I'm in the mood for that, I make my own. Small cubed chuck steak, boiled in water with some Better Than Bouillon Beef. Once tender (a couple of hours), I mash the shit out of the cubes with a wooden spatula, breaking them down/apart. Add some seasoning. Cook down the liquid until I have a meat paste/spread. Makes a decent sized batch which freezes well, too. No sugar and less salt than the can.

No fur yet. Only about 2 -3 days old, I think.

That shit is best right out of the can, room temperature. In the fridge, it looses a little bit of goody or something. But still a nice snack. I've got two cans left, but I don't want to open one, 'cause I ain't that hungry.

Now, Vienna sausages. Armour. I like a can of those pretty good as well. The last few years, the taste of those seemed off to me. Wondered if it was my taster, or Covid pandemic shutodwn shit. They have improved of late.

I made the mistake of trying some off-brand Viennas, Libby's I think it was. God-awful. Also, tried some of the chicken. Turrible.

Locally, we refer to cans of Armour Vienna after a local fellow, named Jim. I won't mention his full name, I'll just say "Jim Does". He used to stop off at a local country store joint to eat lunch, and would grab a can of Armour Vienna sausages and some crackers. Thus, we'd refer to them as a can of "Jim Does".

And everything that we all know (like vodka) has zero wheat has to be labeled as "gluten-free".

Stay the hell away from these Omicron specific mRNA products. If you've already been jabbed with the original, OAS means there's is no benefit to them at all.

If not previously jabbed, it's the same damn thing as before. Non-sterilizing, single epitope targeting inferior immune response generated. At the expensive of massive production of toxic spike protein in the body.

Stay the fuck away.

Feel pretty close to 100% this morning despite a few sneezes. Stirling the needy little black kitten is sitting with me as I type. I had to lock him out of the bedroom last night -- he was trying too hard to suckle me -- so now he's *very* glad to see me. Nothing aloof about this cat!

Sumela Monestary, Turkey

Sumela Monastery is a Greek Orthodox monastery dedicated to the Theotokos located at Karadağ (Greek: Sou Melá, meaning "Black Mountain")within the Pontic Mountains, in the Ma�ka district of Trabzon Province in modern Turkey.
Nestled in a steep cliff at an altitude of about 1,200 metres (3,900 ft) facing the Altındere valley, it is a site of great historical and cultural significance, as well as a major tourist attraction within Altındere National Park. Due to an increase in rock falls, on 22 September 2015 the monastery was closed to the public for safety reasons for the duration of one year to resolve the problem; this was later extended to three years. It reopened to tourists 25 May 2019. The monastery is one of the most important historic and touristic venues in Trabzon.

The word "Sumela" comes from the Laz language which is of the Kartvelian language group and means means "trinity" in English.

Just wanted to get that all in there. Bigger picture of the monastery here.

Elephant nose-training.

Cute baby chimp looks like an old man.

He's officially not a donkey-brained individual.

Bird crossing.

Can't improve the caption -- Ocean's 1011 on a gold heist.

Very useful bird. Really "feathering its nest." Really making a nice "nest-egg" for itself.

Saving a turtle who got caught in the hot sun-baked sand.

How fire-fighters save people threatening to jump from high places. I like a job where you get to kick people and then get called a hero.

Right in the sushi rolls, as Steve Inman would say.

Dog guiding abandoned kitten to her new home. I mean, maybe. There's a guy recording all this so who knows what's really going on.

Giraffe smiles for the camera. Whoops: That was from a digital short.

Dogs are natural-born lifesavers. This might not always be to humans' liking.

Looking down was a sheer drop to the main road from Rome. I'm not sure the height but maybe 500 or more feet. The cars looked like toys. Last time I was there it had been enclosed and converted into a bathroom - very cold in winter.

So I hope the Party does jump on board with this, and forbids him to run as an R. Not sure how that would work. Personal proscription, I guess. Sort of a Party bill of attainder. But it would be one giant step toward the final elimination of the GOP from the impacted bowel of the American body politic. Particularly if he ran against it anyway.

Yeah, they don't so much subsidize as "pay for everything after people decided not to get insurance and something bad happens."

There are some really nice new 3000 square foot houses in Alabama where single wide trailers used to sit until a bad storm a few years ago. They hit the lottery, though, while their neighbor directly beside them (who didn't lose a trailer home) is still living in the same run down singlewide that they were living in prior to their winnings.

I mean if anyone could successfully do a third party run at this point I would guess it's him but why do a third party when you could do what *they* do and wear all their shit as a skinsuit?

There are an unfortunate number of people who only understand R vs D. And anything new will be slandered badly like the Tea Party was, and easily forbidden from things the same way Trump and conservatives have already been shut out of everyday life. Plus an R and a D could conceivably use a pincer movement to strangle him.

Well, if the government is subsidizing flood insurance, they sure aren't helping all that much.

My area was hit hard by Superstorm Sandy. Those houses that sustained a lot of damage were given the option to raise the houses at least five feet above grade at a cost of about $140,000 for an average size house, or pay upwards of $30,000/year flood insurance. Most of these areas had never sustained any flood damage before--Sandy was a 500 year event.

As if. PP doesn't do cancer screening, they don't do ultrasounds (except to guide the abortionist's tools), and they don't do planning, at all.

They count ever visit as 1, and every prescription as 1, and every phone call as 1, and every abortion as 1, so that's how they get the 5% number. It's horseshit, and based on $$, it's about 85%.

So for example you ask if she did something with her hair and then whatever the answer is, you just kind of shrug your shoulders about it.

It's supposed to make her come running back chasing for approval, and the D.

"Net metering" is a bit of a scam. What you or I take out of the grid is somewhat predictable. What you or I put back into the grid from our solar panels or wind turbine is entirely unpredictable. And if there are enough people out there with grid-tied local generators, a sudden calm, or a bank of cloud blocking off the Sun could cause a large sudden drop in generation, which the utility has to make up, suddenly. That means keeping "spinning reserves", so the coal is being burned, the turbines are running, but the generators are idle. So less of a saving than might otherwise be expected.

By the way, Ghislane Maxwell was put on suicide watch before sentencing despite not being suicidal, which I think is the same VIP treatment they gave to the non-suicidal Jeffrey Epstein.

Biden ambassadorial nominee: "The Jewish Factor, it's money." Antisemitism is always percolating in the subterranean sectors of the right, we're endlessly warned.

Whereas, on the left, it's right there at the very top, among the elites and party elders. And yet no one utters a word of caution or concern about that.

The Biden administration's nominee to serve as the U.S. ambassador to Brazil spoke at length about the influence of Jewish money in politics, claiming the "Jewish lobby" exerts undue influence over the Democratic Party with its "major money."
Elizabeth Frawley Bagley, a longtime diplomat and Democratic Party insider, is scheduled on Thursday to have her nomination advanced to the full Senate by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. But Bagley's comments about Jewish money in politics--tropes long considered anti-Semitic in nature--are raising red flags among Democratic and Republican members of the committee, senior congressional sources told the Washington Free Beacon.

Bagley, in a 1998 interview, a full copy of which was obtained by the Free Beacon, bemoaned "the influence of the Jewish lobby because there is major money involved." She went on to claim "the Democrats always tend to go with the Jewish constituency on Israel and say stupid things, like moving the capital to Jerusalem always comes up." Support for these Israel-related issues are due to "the Jewish factor, it's money." The interview was conducted by a historian at the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training for an oral history project.
Senate sources involved in the confirmation process said Bagley's comments should disqualify her from the ambassador's role and told the Free Beacon that both Democrats and Republicans on the Senate committee have privately expressed concerns about these remarks.
"Under a normal administration this kind of vicious anti-Semitism would be disqualifying. You couldn't get hired as an intern," said one senior congressional Republican staffer, who was not authorized to speak on record about the concerns related to Bagley. "It speaks volumes that the Biden administration was confident enough to nominate Bagley and send her to the Senate for confirmation. They know that Democrats are going to fall into line."

Bagley opened up about the "Jewish lobby" and its impact on Democratic Party politics in the 1998 interview. She was asked about "the Israeli influence" on the Clinton administration, where Bagley served as the ambassador to Portugal.

Incredibly, one of the most hateful and grievance-filled things ever to live on the earth -- a "woman" who hates the idea of "baking cookies" and acting as a housewife and hates the idea that anyone would even suspect her of ever having sunk so low, a woman who refused to take her husband's name until politically imperative to do so (for herself as well), a woman who enlisted the FBI, DOJ, and CIA in a coup attempt at a legally elected president out of her sense of outrage that the American voters had rejected her -- now accuses Clarence Thomas of "anger" and "resentment" and "grievance"!

I've broken bread with CT. He is as good-humored and well-tempered as you could want. He's almost a caricature of the sweet-natured chuckling older black guy. He's virtually Dr. Hibbard, but softer spoken. He's a man who can obviously dominate any conversation any time he wants to, but chooses not to.

Without doubt he is passionate about certain topics -- such as the corruption of judicial interpretation by leftwing politically-motivated "reasoning" -- it's simply false that he's "angry" or filled with "grievance" or "resentment."

Now, Hillary Clinton on the other hand...

Twitchy has rounded up some of those tweets of leftwingers spitting the n-word at Clarence Thomas. Obviously a little discretion is advised about clicking on the links.

And speaking of Hillary Clinton: Tubby toady Chris Cillizza points to a substack suggesting that Hillary Clinton will be the nominee in 2024.

The substack is by John Ellis, who's actually a cousin of George W. Bush, so he's connected, and, I'm sure, part of the Uniparty.

Is he just speculating, or has someone from Hillary World told him she'd consider it a favor if he pushed her as a candidate?

Now is her moment. The Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade creates the opening for Hillary Clinton to get out of stealth mode and start down the path toward declaring her candidacy for the 2024 Democratic presidential nomination.
Conditions are favorable:
1. Joe Biden is too old to run for re-election. Everyone knows this. Virtually everyone in the Democratic Party is at their wit's end over what to do about it. The most recent last straw was the cue card. Here's what the cue card said:
"YOU enter the Roosevelt Room and say hello to participants."
"YOU take YOUR seat. "
"Press enters."
"YOU give brief comments [...]" This note was partially blocked by Biden's finger.
"Press departs."
"YOU ask Liz Shuler, President, AFL-CIO, a question. Note: Liz is joining virtually."
"YOU thank participants."
"YOU depart."
2. It isn't going to get better. Everyone knows it isn't going to get better. Which explains this:
A majority of Democratic voters want President Joe Biden off the party's ticket for the 2024 presidential election, according to a recent poll.
The survey, conducted by Marist, found that among registered Democrats and Democrat-leaning independents, 44% (or 55% of those with an opinion) of respondents want another candidate to replace President Joe Biden as the Democratic presidential nominee in 2024.
Just 36% (45% among those who had an opinion) of registered Democrats and Democrat-leaning independents want Biden to run for reelection. Twenty percent of respondents did not have a clear preference.
3. There is no bench. I made this point in a subscriber note last December. Others did as well. Nothing has changed since then. If anything, veteran Democrats are even more pessimistic about Kamala Harris as a potential presidential nominee. As for the others, former Vice President Al Gore is probably the party's best bet. He has indicated zero interest in running.
That leaves former Secretary of State John Kerry, Senators Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, California Governor Gavin Newsom and....maybe....possibly....an outsider like Sheryl Sandberg (ex-Facebook COO) or Bob Iger (ex-Disney CEO).
That's the field. When describing it, the word "formidable" does not spring to mind. Nor do the words "up to it."

Cillizza also notes that Noted Paste-Eater Juan Williams is predicting Hillary Clinton will start making a fat, bloated, drunken appearance on the campaign trail, supposedly for Joe Biden:

Writing in The Hill newspaper, Democratic pundit Juan Williams makes the case that Clinton should become a major figure on the campaign trail this year.
"Clinton is exactly the right person to put steel in the Democrats' spine and bring attention to the reality that 'ultra-MAGA' Republicans, as President Biden calls them, are tearing apart the nation," Williams writes, adding: "Keep talking and talk louder, Hillary!"

She says she's not running, because Biden is running.

But no one seriously believes Biden is running. Democrats, and the media, which are just Democrats with lower back tattoos and untreated herpes, are required due to politics to publicly pretend that they think Biden is running, or will be allowed to run again, or will be alive to run again, but none of them believe this at all.

So what if Biden doesn't run? Who else would the Democrats have that would be an obvious alternative to Hillary -- who, as noted above, has spent six or seven years now claiming that the Russians stole the 2016 election from her?

"You can run the best campaign, you can even become the nominee, and you can have the election stolen from you." -Hillary Clinton pic.twitter.com/eBevAhLzWE
— Trump War Room (@TrumpWarRoom) June 13, 2022

So she already won the presidency once. She already beat Trump once. She just has to do it again, and stop The Russians from rigging it.

Right?

Oh and of course the media won't permit any of that stolen-election election-rigging talk from Hillary and the Democrats, right?

Right.

Bill Barr had oversight of the Epstein prison, and made sure Jeffey boy was safe. He was super duper upset when the event happened, and he was certain to get to the bottom of it.

14 “It was probably the third — third or fourth week in January. I spent a lot of time in the office," he said. “And I started peeling back layers and what it started to unveil to me is how we just had this good shell, but underneath — it’s bad.”

Crime skyrocketed in the final years of deBlasio's tenure as NYC's Mayor. As the Post notes, grand larcenies and auto thefts have skyrocketed 50% and 48% and robberies are up about 40%.

Speaking about the NYPD, Adams commented: “We have not utilized this amazing agency and all our skills.”

“You know, they hold onto this one thing,” he said, criticizing his predecessors like Bill deBlasio, for focusing on a sole project instead of improving the city as a whole. “That’s why when people try to say, ‘OK, Eric, you know, what is your one or two things?,’ I’m saying: To fix this mess!”

Adams said his first initiative would be to crack down on rule breaking in the subways and stop homeless people from living in stations.

30 The problem with running a new candidate when the current one has failed is that the new candidate can never win. The whole party is tarred and will be punished.

So the choices are.
- Biden as a sacrifice to the Gods (of the copybook heading) knowing he will loose big.
- Someone else very old where this is their last realistic chance to run and so they get feted for a few months and dissapear
- Someone young enough to use the loss as a "starter candidacy" for future runs.

My money is on a ambitious unknown who will run to the center, or they plan another steal in which case it will be another puppet.
