I am thankful to the Lord that after almost two weeks of living out of coolers for groceries a new fridge was delivered. Yesterday The guys delivering it looked like Mutt and Jeff. One was about a 6'4 guy and the other one was about 5'4. They were Latino. I wish Americans did these jobs, but they were quite efficient and I would like to think that if they're delivering appliances all day they're probably not working for a drug cartel . It does make me laugh when delivery people call me "Miss" . It makes me feel much younger.😉

Second cup of coffee. Amazing how we come to depend on the stuff, and on routine. Normally I have some black juice first thing whether I'm going to work out or not. Yesterday, all I drank as part of my fast was water. When I finally got to the diner and slurped my first coffee, I'd been awake and moving for three hours and was functioning well. But the diner juice in their thick white mug was darn good.
I've got a haircut and a feeding of the big car on the schedule today.

The fattest cat over there needs to be put on a reducing diet, but he is a sweet and friendly ( big) boy. On Tuesday I had to feed seven fixed cats in a cat colony, my friend's three cats and my own . All this bending down to clean and full food bowls did not help my back. There was however a beautiful last bit of rose bush at the cat colony and it smelled lovely.

So Winnie had her vet appointment yesterday. The main focus was checking her heart and doing a chest x-ray to make sure that she could handle being under anesthesia for a dental cleaning.
The vet was annoyed because she was the one who had diagnosed the heart murmur and now she couldn't find it. A quick blood draw was done and then they had to clean out her right ear because it was filled. The Greyhound Scream of Death was heard that day. In the end, she got a lot of cookies, everyone said how wonderful she was and she was resting happily shortly after getting home. Posted by: NR Pax at September 10, 2026 06:05 AM (99eI0) 49

Posted by: FenelonSpoke at September 10, 2026 *** This month it was Westerns. Linda spoke about a Mickey Spillane/Max Allan Collins novel, Hot Lead, Cold Justice, which she thought had an unsatisfying ending. I spoke about Outlawed, the "feminist" Western I mentioned on the Book Thread this last week. Anna North's novel really isn't "feminist" in the sense of the strident screeching we hear and read so often. Most books labeled as such are short on story and long on "messaging." Not this one. As a plus, the author's West is an alternate one: In the 1830s, a Great Flu wiped out 90% of America from Boston to California. The surviving society became all about fertility (logically), to the point that a "barren" woman is often accused of being a witch. The background shapes the story, as a good SF tale should.

Linda admitted she's never read much in the Western genre. But she likes hardboiled crime, so I told her she'll be right at home with sagebrush sagas; they are often tales of gangsters and of bringing them to justice, simply 100-150 years back. I'll get her to read Elmore Leonard's Hombre, at least one of Loren Estleman's Deputy Page Murdock series, and the short by Jack Schaefer, one of the best stories ever written, "Sergeant Houck."

Posted by: FenelonSpoke at September 10, 2026 *** North is new to me. This one is her third novel, and while she is a writer for the NYT, she did not let her probable leftist bias affect her storytelling. It's really only "feminist" in that it deals mostly with women and women's concerns -- but a good writer can make that interesting to men, or at least yours truly, and she did. I try not to give away endings, but to talk about why a book is important or not, where it was strong and where it was weak, and how it relates to other novels. Outlawed, for instance, has faint resemblances to another Western with a heroine -- True Grit. Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at September 10, 2026 06:28 AM (wzUl9) 69

Ubiribo, who also went by Denisi and Ego on social media, died after experiencing complications from a genital enlargement procedure in Thailand, a U.K. coroner confirmed to TMZ on Saturday, September 5. According to the medical examiner, Ubiribo suffered a pulmonary embolism during the cosmetic surgery. (A pulmonary embolism occurs when a blood clot is stuck in an artery in the lung that blocks blood flow, according to the Mayo Clinic.) The businessman allegedly had 40 milliliters of hyaluronic acid and lidocaine injected into his penis at an unidentified Thai clinic in March, per an Inner West London Coroners' Court inquest obtained by TMZ.In case there is any question, Tiny's procedure is not ONT approved and Ace of Spades disclaims any adverse consequences from any medical advice given or implied on the blog or in the comments. Hat tip MisHum Every summer, tens of thousands of New York State Fair visitors willingly stand in one of the fairgrounds' longest lines for something they could make at home: a $1 baked potato. This year, they'll be getting it from someone new. Tully's Good Times has been selected to take over the potato booth in the Horticulture Building after longtime operator Wahid Akl decided it was time to move on, ending an era for one of the fair's most recognizable food traditions. The change comes after the fair sought applications this spring from existing concessionaires interested in operating the booth.Why did Akl decide it "was time to move on"? Akl said the decision to give up the booth came down to simple math. Running the potato booth required about 30 employees working two shifts each day of the fair, he said. While the booth routinely served tens of thousands of customers, the signature baked potato remained locked at $1 as labor and food costs continued to climb. "We had 30 employees, two shifts," Akl said in an earlier interview with syracuse.com. "You need to serve, clean up the dining room, make sure everything is running. We had a great run out of it. But with everything getting so expensive... I'm not a nonprofit organization."So how will the new operator make it work if the old operator couldn't? The New York State Fair will pay a $40,000 management fee to the operator, cover payroll for booth employees and provide the New York-grown potatoes, according to a document concessions manager Jack Davison sent to vendors in April. The operator must continue selling a baked potato or three salt potatoes with butter or sour cream for $1, a longtime fair tradition. In return, the booth's rental fee is waived.Oh. ![]() ![]() The F-117 CAD/PAD order list also includes what are described as the "Tail Hook Panel Pyrotechnic Assembly" and "Tail Hook Panel Initiator." These small shaped explosive charges and electrically-initiated detonators, respectively, and are completely unrelated to the F-117's ejection system. To take a step back quickly, most land-based combat jets in U.S. service today, as well as many in service elsewhere globally, have tailhooks. Unlike their carrier-based counterparts, these aircraft have the hooks for emergency use in combination with arresting gear installed on runways on land. On non-stealthy land-based combat jets, the integration of an emergency tailhook system is relatively straightforward since it can simply be installed externally or semi-externally at the rear end of the aircraft. It is a more complicated proposition for stealth designs where a hook protruding, even partially, from the underside of the fuselage would negatively impact the jet's radar cross section.Who new the F-117 had a tailhook (I mean other than every Moron except me)?
![]() I will start considering potentially thinking about concern over re-naming the Gulf of America when people like the NY State legislature stop trying to re-name "mother" to "gestating parent" and "father" to "non-gestating parent."

Evening, TRex, and ONT Horde. I'm guessing late '50's to mid '60's for the Gulf tanker. Looks like it might be a '58 International.
Had a cool surprise this afternoon. Stepped out of the garage to wash my hands in the tire test tub. When I came back in to dry them on a towel kept handy, something flew past my head. I'm thinking "bat, or maybe swallow?" Then it perched on top of my welding outfit. It was a merlin, a pocket-sized hawk. It looked at me, and I looked at it, and said "Hello, little Hawk." Then it took to its wings, and flew away. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at September 09, 2026 10:15 PM (1z8ji) 41

Even among that 5 percent of high-level leaders, entrepreneurs, how many have submitted to DEI nonsense … answer, about 95 percent … or have embraced assorted covid, gender, climate end-time bullshit?

I once held a Merlin in my hands. It flew after a large sparrow, the sparrow went up and over my Vanagon, the Merlin crashed into the big side rear window and was knocked out on the ground. I ran to get a welding glove, called my kids over to see. We were looking at it for a minute, then it's eyes opened, it shook it's head and it flew off like nothing had happened. The sparrow had a good plan.

He touched high voltage trolley wires when he was 8, lived, but was horribly disfigured, lost both eyes, much of his face.

I have the Texaco gas pump signs for Sky Chief and Fire Chief I found in the woods while digging for grubs to feed my turtle. In very good shape with just a tiny bit of rust around the screw holes. I think late 50s era. According to other internet "solds" the premium one can sell for over $300. There were other gas pump parts thrown there, but I left them.

I liked to see those really old gasoline pumps, they were elevated clear glass bowls, and would hold maybe 5 or 10 gallons. The gas jockey would pump gas up into the reservoir first, and then gravity feed into the car’s tank. Graduated lines would show the motorist how many gallons were pumped.
Did they make drivers pay first in 1922? When I was young, you pretty much pumped your own gasoline and then went in and paid. I knew I had arrived in the Big City when they didn’t allow that. Go in first, it’s like a bank vault, only with more security and nothing other than a guy to take money. Then go back out and pump fuel.

Many years ago, we got an ISDN line installed at Jerry Pournelle's house, known as Chaos Manor. ISDN was the best you could get in a residential location before DSL and Cable modem service became common. We were at a complete loss as how to get it working. It behaved like a regular telephone line in some ways but you couldn't connect a ISDN TA and just use the dial-up functionality in Window 98 or NT 4. The lack of documentation was frustrating. Some aspect were bizarrely mysterious.
We called Pacific Bell, the local telco then. We got passed around and eventually ended up talking to then PacBell employee Scott Adams. There was much mutual fanboying. Posted by: Epobirs at September 09, 2026 11:18 PM (/0z9K) 174

I just don't think "If we win I'll give you 5 grand" is a great political or even moral message. But opinions vary.
Posted by: JackStraw at September 09, 2026 11:38 PM (viF8m) I'd argue that it's an awesome political message, while making a realistic moral statement about a large segment of the electorate. Politics is all about winning. We've been playing catch up with the Dems since at least FDR. Voter participation for midterm elections is abysmal. I'd love to see that change organically, and I think this Dallas event was a great step in that direction. Would it be enough? History has not been kind to incumbent Presidents, and people still vote their pocketbooks. I don't love the idea myself, but I'll smile like Harry Reid if it works...

Or even "If we hold both the House and Senate I will work with Republicans to deliver a tax rebate to all US taxpayers". Eh, Trump's a blunt speaker and mostly works for him so this might as well.

Trying to get to sleep last night, out of nowhere I had the earworm Zombie. Realized I didn't really know all the lyrics nor even what it was about. (This morning I looked up the lyrics & watched the bizarre video.)
Fortunately, in the morning I awoke with the earworm of the Blues Brothers in Bob's Country Bunker doing Stand By Your Man. Which video I also looked up today. The song linked below was not either of those, but popped into my head mid-day. It was, coincidentally, the aforementioned former group of Fluorescent Leech and Eddie, their other big hit.

How much did Obama give Iran? How many dollars of equipment did Biden give Afghanistan? How much has Clinton's, Loral gift to China cost us? Posted by: Braenyard - some Absent Friends are more equal than others Obama: $1.7 Billion, but unlocked $100-$150 bilion in frozen assets IceKingJoe: $7.1 Billion Loral: It was not a "gift" from the administration, but rather a commercial export control violation. In 2002, the Justice Department and State Department settled the case with Loral, requiring the company to pay a $14 million civil penalty for violating the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) Remember who did this, yes, the above, but what's on the horizon, coming -- the answer is where LIB values really stand: 1. They Reward the Guilty 2. They Punish the Innocent 3. The Champion, the mediocre, the Unworthy, the DEPRAVED on the basis of their Depravity. This is the reason why AOC could possibly be considered viable LIB presidential material, but adjacent to that is one greater: H.Biden which masterfully checks all the boxes.

Actually evidence suggests that Shin Bet (Israeli Internal Security) knew almost immediately when the attack began, but delayed notifying the rest of the government for several hours. Speculation that they didn’t understand the scope and hoped it would be enough to topple the government, but not too bad.
Whatever really happened, it seems clear that everyone on all sides politically had plenty of blame, which is why all sides have agreed to never do any big public examination of what went wrong. Posted by: Tom Servo at September 10, 2026 01:43 AM (UJfh6) 269

173 Many years ago, we got an ISDN line installed at Jerry Pournelle's house, known as Chaos Manor. ISDN was the best you could get in a residential location before DSL and Cable modem service became common. We were at a complete loss as how to get it working. It behaved like a regular telephone line in some ways but you couldn't connect a ISDN TA and just use the dial-up functionality in Window 98 or NT 4. The lack of documentation was frustrating. Some aspect were bizarrely mysterious.
We called Pacific Bell, the local telco then. We got passed around and eventually ended up talking to then PacBell employee Scott Adams. There was much mutual fanboying.

Speaking of ISDN lines: I had a high school friend in the 90s with his own business selling extensions to a popular BBS program, mostly so that BBS administrators could offer their users "gateway" access to the broader Internet. There were products for SMTP, NNTP, FTP, Gopher, even HTTP. Of course he ran his own BBS as well. He was really excited when he got an ISDN installed at his home. I'm pretty sure it was expensive. But a least he didn't have to call Scott Adams!

Ench's-- helps to have leftover chicken for easy shredding, or could use canned... cook up some rice; add sautee'd peppers & onions; seasonings to include cumin, cilantro (or basil if you have the *soap gene*), s & p, crushed garlic... heat it all up together & add cheddar and m.jack cheeses. Put ~ 1/2 cup filling into each of 10-12 pre-warmed corn tortillas and roll up.
Put enchilada sauce (canned or homemade) on bottom of 9x12 pan, put in rolled tortillas, top with more sauce and more cheese-- bake 350 for 20 minutes or until heated thru and cheese bubbly. Don't have precise recipe handy... I don't make them often & not really a tex-mex pro. LOL. Posted by: JQ at September 10, 2026 03:10 AM (rdVOm) 304

173 Many years ago, we got an ISDN line installed at Jerry Pournelle's house, known as Chaos Manor. ISDN was the best you could get in a residential location before DSL and Cable modem service became common. We were at a complete loss as how to get it working. It behaved like a regular telephone line in some ways but you couldn't connect a ISDN TA and just use the dial-up functionality in Window 98 or NT 4. The lack of documentation was frustrating. Some aspect were bizarrely mysterious.
We called Pacific Bell, the local telco then. We got passed around and eventually ended up talking to then PacBell employee Scott Adams. There was much mutual fanboying. Posted by: Epobirs at September 09, 2026 11:18 PM (/0z9K) Super cool! Posted by: m at September 10, 2026 03:47 AM (odBC9) 319

How's everybody doing? My schedule, if you can call it that, is getting insane, and I haven't had much of a chance the last day or so to hang out. It's a full-time thing with my mother now. Her mind is starting to really wift out -- trouble distinguishing dreams from reality big time now. She was just telling me that she was at a restaurant where the food would disappear just as she tried to put it in her mouth. And then she thought I'd was in the hospital, and was wondering how I got back so quickly. You just have to roll with this stuff.

Dat squirrel has rabies.
Cows really are that nosy. The first morning in our new house on the farm, my mother had an audience on the front porch watching her shower. One bro found an abandoned feral newborn kitty in a pasture with a circle of cows staring at it. When baby bro was born they'd gather outside the fence to stare at him in his little baby chair.

Woke up the other night to the cat meowing and batting something live around in the bedroom. I turned on the light, which woke him up- he can't hear her when asleep, so he went to investigate.
She'd brought in a mouse, which escaped into the rest of the house. We found out today, when the appliance guy showed up, that the dishwasher is not working because it chewed a hole in the hose. It also chewed bits out of the sponge mat in my sewing room. Good news is its corpse was in the trap in the utility room when we got home from Waco yesterday.

The first morning in our new house on the farm, my mother had an audience on the front porch watching her shower.
----- Being an Iowanian I really should know a lot about cattle. But I don't. They do a lot of grazing on National Forest land. One minute, no cows. Next minute, many cows. They do respond to "Git!" and "Yah!!!" pretty well. But they don't have much, or any, long term memory maybe. Out of 80,000 possible acres of grass, the grass just under your trailer or camper or pickup, why, that's JUST the perfect, tender stuff. They can be quiet when they want to be. And I thought they laid down at night and went to sleep. Not necessarily. They look kinda spooky in flashlight. Green eyes, spaced really far apart. I have some of their cousins in my freezer right now, so I try to cut them some slack. Posted by: Common Tater at September 09, 2026 07:49 PM (YZWNs) 55

Well, right. 100ah battery has been standard, like forever. It's easy to convert in the head on power draw.
The Starlink mini does draw quite a bit right at startup, that's why it can have problems with a direct battery feed. Voltage sag. It needs steady juice of sufficient current to complete the boot up.

Posted by: Braenyard - some Absent Friends are more equal than others _ at September 09, 2026 09:11 PM (51ygH) My BIL who lives outside of Nikiski (basically, nowhere) uses both a windmill and solar panels to charge his batteries in case of an outage. We don't get much daylight in the winter, so wind makes a fair amount of sense then. He has always had plenty of power to run the house and appliances when the power takes a digger. He also has it all computerized and monitored remotely so when they are out of state he can make sure all is working correctly. That seems like a lot of work to me, but it works for him.

Posted by: Braenyard" No panels make their max rating except under perfect perfect conditions. The best I've seen out of four of my current 400w panels was about 1400w, and that didn't last long.

On one of the hiker forums, they seem to suggest that the portable panels lose their mojo relatively fast, or faster than they would like. I suppose like anything else, you get what you pay for. If you're lucky. They might be a little less robust materials or manufacturing techniques.

Hi, Piper! Sorry the kiddo must endure the pain of braces.
(I've had them twice: 3 years' worth in jr. high, then again as an adult because didn't get the wisdom teeth removed before they messed up the previous work) The first day or 2 after installment and subsequent adjustments were the worst!

Solar panel → portable power station → Starlink Mini
Expect the Mini to use roughly 25–50 watts, depending on conditions and activity. A 500-Wh power station might therefore run it for approximately 8–15 hours, allowing for conversion losses and other devices. usmobile.com In practice, size the circuit for at least 5 A, preferably with some margin. A 12 V, 10 A fused circuit is a reasonable practical choice. Two important details: The vehicle battery voltage may range from about 12.0 to 14.4 V, so the current will vary. Use the correct Starlink Mini DC cable or a properly regulated cable. Don’t connect bare 12 V directly unless the cable/input specification explicitly supports the vehicle’s voltage range. At 50 W, the consumption is about 4.2 amp-hours per hour at 12 V. A 100-Ah battery theoretically provides about 24 hours, but usable runtime is lower because of battery type, reserve capacity, temperature, and other loads.

Georgetown U. "students" are upset that an orientation program will now emphasize learning and success rather than racial and sexual identity. College attendees, what would you say you do here? No more presentations on 'what it means to be a woman on campus [and] person of color in a predominantly white institution' A Georgetown University student paper investigation has revealed the school's Center for Multicultural Equity & Access "sunsetted an identity-driven pre-orientation program" over a year ago "amid" Trump administration "attacks" on DEI measures. According to The Hoya, the center's Young Leaders in Education, Advocacy & Dialogue program, aka YLEAD, was changed last August to Total Hoya Readiness: Intro to Vocation and Experience, or THRIVE, which no longer has programming related to identity and diversity. YLEAD used to "foster dialogue" about "ability, ethnicity, gender, nationality, race, religion, age, sexual orientation, and social class," according to the Hoya's review of the center's archived webpages. Solene DeGaynor, a former YLEAD participant who later became a THRIVE coordinator, said she was "disappointed" the university moved away from the original program. "We did a lot of presentations on what it means to be a woman on campus, what it means to be a person of color in a predominantly white institution," DeGaynor said. "That was really helpful in terms of understanding how identity intersects and plays a role in how you operate on a college campus." DeGaynor added that the new THRIVE is more about "academic success" and "access[ing] to all of the resources" at Georgetown. Former YLEAD peer leader Dani Scott said YLEAD was "an important support system for incoming students of color and international students," and that it helped students with "all these different identities" navigate a "predominantly white institution." "It was very much focusing on making people feel safe before they even got there and making sure that they knew that there was community there," she said. Scott added "I wish that Georgetown has stayed a little bit stronger and truer to the mission that they said that they were creating [...] I feel like potentially there was a robbing of a certain community that Georgetown could have cultivated."I'm starting to get very black-pilled. Why are so many anti-white racists married to white guys? Adam Carolla misses a big one here: Francesca Hong, who would only admit a "proximity to whiteness," but this whiteness was so proximal to her vagina that it resulted in a half-white son. Shoe On Head calls this syndrome "revolutionary in the streets, colonized in the sheets." Mexican narcoterrorists have been probing the southern border with drones for a long time. The US had been using electronics-jamming equipment to drive them back across the border. Now we're using lasers to just destroy them. One of the New England Patriots' male cheerleaders.

Glad the Nigerian prince was found!
The woman griping about her husband's reaction to her haircut...don't like her. I don't understand people who film themselves doing this stuff. On the bright side I did not have to look for snot shooting out her nose ring. First, she honestly thinks she's Jennifer Anniston by her stupid facial expressions and mannerisms. ick.I think he married her for her boob enhancements that are fake. The one time I goofed, badly, a haircut was for The Jennifer when Friends came out. I accidently asked for a shag and that is what I got. Curly and wild. My husband and both HS sons, all independently, simply asked, "Why did you do that?" I did weep a bit that night but it was my own fault. Grew it back. Oh, and feminist weirdo? I wear my hair for myself AND the man I married who met me when it was waist length. It is a couple of inches below my shoulders, easy, and I still get highlights every couple of months. I would guess he's happier than living with a harridan! I will ask later (altho I've been no grumpy today). Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at September 09, 2026 06:35 PM (hzuYO) 40

I would say that someone should tell that planetoid that no one is required to take the GLP-1s if they don't want to, but Socialists have real difficulty comprehending any options other than "mandatory" and "forbidden". Posted by: FeatherBlade at September 09, 2026 06:49 PM (vJrRc) 86

If any of you find a tic tok or sub reddit devoted to men fleeing pro-Clancy gf's or wives, please point me to it.
I discovered with joy that reddit, a week or so ago, gave up on registration and I can now read weird stuff. The best was right after Trump's election in 2024 and the local sub/reddit mothers of trans going wacko and leaving the country. I loved that and checked it daily. They took their kids out of school, like those who voted for Trump were behind the grassy knoll for kidnapping. I loved that one. Still love the Hawwy and Markle snarkfest in my down time. I've made the entire week, so far, downtime as my dude knows I recover from surgery faster than sinus issues. Basically if I did anything he'd figure, "Yep, it's her sinuses." So I stay home.

Posted by: whig This. Pro-tip for anyone who wants to not answer the question when someone ask "Do you like" in relation to what they've done to their appearance: Don't answer the question as it was asked. Give an actual evaluation based aesthetic principles. Hopefully shaded toward the complementary, if you can manage it. If that doesn't satisfy, you can try escaping with "It's a big change. I'm sure it'll grow on me." If that results in a hissy fit, you can always end with "If you don't want me to answer honestly, don't ask the question."

Old timers told me you could tear off a tiny chunk about the size of a pea or so, and light it with a match, to boil water for coffee or heat up a C-rat. Posted by: Common Tater at September 09, 2026 06:49 PM (dXSiv) Yup. And you can use it for signaling. My last First Sergeant got his Silver Star in VN when he was in a Ranger recon platoon. They were being chased by the NVA and had lost their smoke grenades and VS-17 panels for setting up an LZ to get lifted out. By the time they found a clearing large enough for an LZ it was after dark so he broke open a Claymore and pulled out chunks of C4 to light up his inverted Y to mark the LZ. I read all of this off of his Silver Star citation in his office while on CQ duty. Posted by: IllTemperedCur at September 09, 2026 07:10 PM (IKb6r) 163

What is the game they are running on the goys? Many people are too afraid to ask these important questions. Tuq'r is not.
3,000 Americans dead, Muslims the Real Victims Here. And it ended with a graphic that included an infamous photo of El-Sayed fist-bumping Hasan Piker, the left-wing influencer who declared that "America deserved 9/11." El-Sayed delivered his scheduled remarks minutes later and gave a standard campaign stump speech that focused on cost-of-living issues, as well as his experiences as a Muslim in America. "Muslim Americans, they want to tell us that we don't belong. They want to tell us that this country's not ours, that because of our names or how we pray that we are somehow less than," said El-Sayed.No, it's not because of your "funny names." It's because you worship a "god" who tells you to kill the infidels -- us -- and you are constantly justifying such murders. Some people did some things with some planes and some buildings. Oh, and your piratical cousins steal billions from us when they're not just sponging off us with infinite welfare grifting. Video of the conference at the link. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Ugandan General Muhoozi Kainerugaba insisted on Wednesday morning that his nation would not participate in any event without approval from Charles, adding that he felt motivated to quash 'that Harry-Meghan nonsense'.
The move came less than 48 hours after the King outlined in a letter that the duke and duchess are still not working royals despite the couple relocating to the UK a fortnight ago. The letter was said to have blindsided Harry and Meghan, who claimed they did not have enough time to clarify the King's points before the guidance was released to the media. And the Sussexes have now reportedly blamed Uganda's decision to withdraw from the Invictus Games on the letter, which was released on His Majesty's instruction by his Lord Chamberlain on Monday. A source close to Harry and Meghan told ITV News tonight: "Intended or unintended, this is clearly a consequence of the Lord Chamberlain's guidance regarding the Duke and Duchess of Sussex that was rushed out without consultation on Monday. Sadly, the only people who will suffer are the Invictus Games competitors." Posted by: AoSHQ Celebrity News Bureau and Rumour Centre at September 09, 2026 05:29 PM (0sNs1) 12

As I mentioned before, this is great news because it shows how this weirdo twerp hasn’t locked down his rabid commie jihadi base yet. No sane candidate would risk the devasting oppo to come out of speaking at this Thunderdome conference of jihadi lunatics … unless they were worried they still had to appeal to those lunatics.

A guy in my fellowship had a dad with a plan ... for when the blacks attacked en masse. He would get his armed kids on the four corners of his house (I assume with reinforced walls, or at least sandbags) to fend off an attack from any approach. He also helped his son and me get our first handguns.
Of course that was New Orleans, and there had been "race riots" around the country. But it is still hard for me to imagine we will go so far down the "shoot the enemy in the streets" path to where we have to be that defensive. Being remote on a farm, I'd be pretty easy to pick off while spraying my weeds, or doing anything outside. But I did move to a conservative area of Illinois last century, so maybe they'll come for me last ... and "we" can overwhelm the lunatics before they get here?

Everything Hunter touches turns to crap...
Hunter Biden’s LAPTOP memecoin fell 99% in its first hour of trading on Wednesday, as the son of former US President Joe Biden officially entered the market for politically themed cryptocurrencies. The token, which we previewed here, issued on Ethereum layer-2 network Base, traded below $2.00, after opening at $199.50, according to CoinGecko data.

A lazy theory:
Carlson and his fellow travelers don't hate Jews. They love Jews. Jews give them the infinitely malleable, ever changing magical excuse to attack the people they really hate: "Goys". All their fellow white gentiles of whom they found this exciting new way to perch above and preach their own enlightened superiority. It's like a game, or a challenge, to come up with more creative new bombastic shit to say. Jews are just a made up cartoon in their heads. It's gentiles they really hate.

I don't light up a room today, sadly. I read this often in obituaries and wonder how true it is for some people. I pick and choose every few weeks, based on their photo. Everyone seems to light up rooms.
Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at September 09, 2026 05:42 PM (hzuYO) I think they typically mean in a quiet way, not as the life of the party. It appears to me that Father Time treats our personalities like a sculptor, shaving off all the material that is not the shape he sees beneath. Each becomes more purely his or her self; those who collect peeves become made entirely of them, while the generally kind let go of what few grumps they had. So I think those obituaries are simply referring to the latter kind of old people, who instead of losing their ability to enjoy small pleasures, have lost their ability to be bothered by small troubles.

The central problem with the GOP foreign policy is that it has no real hawks.
On the left end of the GOP you have people like Chuck Hegel who want to avoid war and turn everything over to the UN, which BTW always ends up including completely domestic issues like guns as well. Go a little bit to the right and you get the neocons, who want to fight wars for strategic reasons, but don't have the stomach to win them outright... and who also want the government to have the final say on who is good enough for the Second Amendment, or even the First Amendment. Because you know, we can't let the terrorists win. Go further "right" and they want war all right: with Israel, the nation actually on the front line, because they ain't afraid of them damn Joos. And although they will swear that they love the Second Amendment, they never seem to put it on the same level as their obsession with the Joos, and they ultimately end up de facto supporting mass immigration, including illegal immigration, which will guarantee the nullification of the Bill of Rights. In any case, they are openly cheering the jihadists and the Democrats now. Posted by: Ken at September 09, 2026 06:20 PM (qs8Hw) 142
