I've Been To One World's Fair, A Picnic, And A Rodeo, And That's The Stupidest ONT I Ever Heard!
Just a fair warning here. I'm going to open tonight's ONT with a bit of NSFW content:
Commentary
Watching a film about communism, I realised I had been lied to as a child in ChinaIt's an interesting story. She grew up in China, then moved to the US and discovered freedom, now she lives in Europe. Still, I wonder where she really stands, I'd love to have a conversation with her, to find out what she means by, and what she thinks “freedom” means. I wonder if she's a progressive, it's not a bad bet, she seems to be a perpetual student. She talks about the trappings of western life, but that's a result of prosperity, not freedom (and yes I realize that the later usually leads to the former). If she is a progressive, does she realize that it's a totalitarian ideology, just like the Maoist one from her childhood, only with guilded trappings. I dunno, it seems like it could be an interesting conversation. Turning Point?
A Victim Too Far: How Transgenders Will Bring Down the Lefty Marxists Who Want to Destroy America
Will the tranny madness be the straw that breaks the Marxist left's back? I dunno, I truly thought it would have happened before now. I'll tell you this, however. If it does happen it won't be because of any organized “conservative” resistance, it'll be because the loony left gets too extreme for itself. How many blacks are all in on making transgenders the civil-rights-issue-of-our-time? Most of them still believe that racial equality is the only civil rights issue going on, being told to abandon that for a dude in a dress will not sit well with them. How many women are going to be willing to (figuratively) suck it up and deal with dangling male genitalia in their private areas? Sure, some of them are gung ho for it, but many aren't. And what happens when the wheel turns another notch and it's on to normalizing pedophilia? It would be the ultimate irony if the left destroys itself rather than the right defeating them.
On Russia This first link is quite long, I'm not even through it all myself, but it is very interesting. Finnish Intelligence Officer Explains the Russian Mindset
Authoritarian rule has followed Russian rule since the Mongol era. It hasn’t changed since then. The name of the leader has changed but authoritarian rule itself has always remained the same. Russia sees itself as the heir to the Soviet Union, as it is in some respects. There are 11 time zones in Russia. These huge distances also affect Russia. From the Polish border to Moscow, through to the Urals, is a plateau that is easy to attack with both horses and tanks. That is what has been done. Napoleon attacked, the Germans attacked, and so on. That idea is also in the genetic inheritance of the Russians, that someone is always attacking. “We will be conquered.” They have no shelter, no mountains, no rivers. There are no lakes between the east and the capital. Geographically, Russia has always been easy to conquer, which also influences their thinking.It's pretty interesting stuff.

Here's A Solution To Groomers That I Can Get Behind
Indonesian court sentences teacher to death for raping 13 students “This guy was grooming girls and then having sex with them”, trans groomer apologists will claim, “we just want to talk to trans children to let them know they're OK the way they are”. Sure thing, Spartacus, and if you pull this leg it plays Jingle Bells. So, fair trade. You can talk to kids all you like about sex, but when we catch you with your pants down whispering “Don't tell your mom about this” you get a quick .45 round to the back of the head, deal?
Thursday Night Poll
The Real Thing
Cola Wars in Mexico It's in a Leftist rag, but the article is interesting. I like the response of the Mexican politician, when told he should get rid of Coke because of its corruption: “We have a way to get rid of Coke. We will drink every last bottle.”

Sleep Lost: None
Man Jailed for Murdering Toddler Killed by Inmates I'm supposed to be against vigilante justice, and I suppose I am, but I have a hard time being emphatic about it.
OUTRAGE! Chinese outrage, but it's still problematic. P&G apologizes after sparking outrage with social media post claiming women's feet smell '5 times worse' than men's The story is trivial, but of course P&G did the requisite shuck and jive apology, etc, etc. What gets me is who cares? I mean honestly, why would you care. A company makes a claim in an ad “Women's feet smell!”.......so? So what? Really, if it pisses you off don't buy the product, that'll teach them as well as anything. The sheer hysteria today “Sexist! Racist! “Boycott!” of absolutely nothing of consequence and thus absolutely everything seriously boggles my mind. My wife calls it a Muppet flail, after Kermit.

Putin's official spokesman today admitted that the heavy casualties taken by the Russian military have been a "Great Tragedy". It appears that this is why Putin is redoubling his efforts to bring in troops from various middle eastern countries like Syria; even if he does, I don't this will work out well for him. Arab armies in serious combat have shown that they generally break and run as soon as they face any heavy opposition.

Putin is a traditional paternal autocrat. He wants to do what is good for his country and what is good for him...Most certainly not in the order of course.
America has been antagonizing him since 2014. America is weak. Putin has a reasonable claim for war - since Ukraine/US have broken the agreements they have with him on autonomy for the Russian enclaves and no NATO in Ukraine.
Its really that simple. No Biden? No War.

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned before that I was out at the shed, talking to the neighbor, while his granddaughter was buzzing around our yards on the mower.
Suddenly, she runs up to her car, grabs a cute little pink pistol, and runs off. Told the neighbor, I bet your kids all put in some range time. He confirmed. Then six shots ring out.
I wandered over. They'd found a rake and dangling from it, still wiggling for a few moments, was a water moccasin with four big holes in it. Pretty good shootin'!
Never go mowing the tall stuff without a sidearm!

In many respects, the attitude that Putin himself developed but also imposes on society is that nuclear blackmail is okay. And it was like that even before the war. But when the war started, I think it got even worse. Because there was just this deep belief that the more we're bragging about the ability to start a nuclear war, the more concessions we will get. The belief is that the United States is weak and is not going to start a nuclear war over some country in Eastern Europe or Europe in general. And for that reason, we just have to be strong enough, and that will be enough for them to give us whatever we want.
The biggest patriotic holiday of the year in Russia is May 9th - Victory Day, celebrating Russian victory in WWII.
Putin badly wants a victory by then. The next month is likely to be very, very interesting.

"While your participation is voluntary..."
The last actual census was apparently mandatory, as they kept calling and threatening me after I ignored all their written communication. I finally gave in, but I gave the caller a piece of my mind before answering everything as tersely as possible.
In your case I'd just ignore it.

I've had two. The majority of the time the first one doesn't work permanently, and the doc has to go back a few years later and burn the sh*t out of the inside of your atrium. The whole point is to slow down the nerve impulses (they travel slower through scar tissue) so that the "beat" impulse from the pacemaker gets there before the one from your nervous system, and you stay in rhythm. It sounds like a big deal, but it's really not.

Then, the word went out, he was "The One", and they acted like he was some bright new shiny thing, and were revealing him to me for the first time. He was the Rorschach candidate. An empty suit, or an empty vessel that could be ascribed whatever properties the viewer wanted. Talk about a Cult behaviour.
Romney was a Snake, and I said so at the time, and predicted he'd get his sorry ass handed to him. He was the designated failure theater candidate, the assigned Pinata, to "Lose with grace and dignity" and all the other bullshit the Uniparty prescribes for the benighted ignorant hick rubes outtn here in flyover Jesusland.

well, the globalists wanted it, like they wanted plandemic.

The Whole Country (essentially), and keeping him there while he withheld successful early treatments. Hard to figure, unless They were threatening to prosecute Ivanka for something.
DeepState proceeded maybe a little slower under Trump, but trade deficits with China were still huge, pipelines not built, border still mostly open. ... Biden the puppet, any other puppet would have done the same. ... But they stole the election, nothing was done ... were they not always in charge? (Strzok "We will stop him", and indeed they did)

it may be indiscreet to say, but Romney is doing EXACTLY what the Mormon Church Leadership wants him to do. There are plenty of good individual mormons, but the leadership is rotten to the core.
The sad truth is that yes, there are plenty of Mormons who are good people trying to be good people, but the founder was a conman who finally hit on a scheme that worked and as far as the leadership goes, it's the Mafia. Elders = Five Family Commission.

pretty true for all centralized power. Checks and balances, good concept ... separation or powers, yeah, great theory. Only specific powers listed allowed for federal government to control .. yeah, worked kinda/sorta, for a little while.
Now ... Technocracy (run by ? oligarchs and puppets) might cancel you for not loving the trannie, or denying global warming, or supporting liberty. They've extracted trillions, really plan to own everything ... you will own nothing, they say it out loud.

there are some interviews of Russian citizens that seem to be largely "Ukrainians have always hated us, let them all die, better for us". On the other hand, some soldiers seem to feel they are just committing terrible genocide, they are ready to walk away, go home.
Hard to get an overall "zeitgeist" ... and there is probably a wide range of empathy and/or divisions. sad ... many Russians have Youtube channels ... seem not so happy, would rather be more like ? The west, I think.

The point of the video was to show some Russian leaning people giving out food to the locales - the person leading the effort was an Donbas Russian leaning pol who I saw discussed back in 2014...so she's real, and locales complaining about the Azov Battalion people committing atrocities in Mariupol...who might be actors, bought off, or telling what they saw.
Its interesting to see the other side's propaganda. Clearly they are trying to get some air time in western countries since it was in English. And to give them some credit they didn't pull something from a video game. I can't tell from the video if they are really in Mariupol or in Donbas somewhere. But...that part of Ukraine did support Yanukovych before our coup.

Presumably you'd have to pick some historical event, describe it accurately in some way that shows you are talking about it ahead of time, then show people that...
Probably too much for a 6 year old...but give it a few years....especially if you have a good relationship with your parents.
This would be good fodder for an SF movie. Your kid claims an alien invasion or something is coming up because he lived it and was sent back. You laugh about it...and he tells you tomorrow the news is going to report a new comet with some weird name...and tomorrow they do...

Yet, it appears that a good portion of women do wear shoes sans socks. Is that, perhaps, how the 5x stank factor was derived? How *does* one measure stank, anyway?

Some of us will forever be pessimistic despite evidence to the contrary. There are fortunate and unfortunate good (and bad guys) as well as pretty girls who are good wives to good men.
And when people engage in deep pessimism and cynicism, they will refuse to embrace happiness if it gave them a big wet smooch on the face because that would contradict their attitude to life.

I had that done a few years ago. Honestly, he'll wake up a little sore, with some sensation of burning in his chest, but after a good night's rest (I stayed in the hospital), I felt great. Before the procedure, I was having days of feeling really crappy and my ICD was having a lot of 'issues' recorded. I actually left the next day walking down one flight of stairs and jogging to get the local bus home. When I later told the Doc that, he was happily amazed.

I understand the theory that if you go back and kill young Adolf, a more competent Nazi might take over Germany and Europe and possibly the world. But, knowing what I know, I'd be willing to take that chance. Just like I'd go back and kill Vladimir Ilyich. Without Lenin, there'd be no Stalin because Stalin rode Lenin's coattails. Without Stalin, well, the world can only be better. Or at least I'm willing to make that bet and take that chance.

Yep. He's one of the 'little people' who had such a tremendous negative effect. He just didn't kill Archduke Ferdinand and Sofie, he killed millions in WWI*.
One thing I did not understand about Princip was that he was not executed for the assassination, back when Europe was still executing murderers and traitors. He died in prison in April, 1918 of malnutrition and the effects of tuberculosis. Don't know why, but I always just assumed he was executed.
* Interesting tidbit from Wiki: From February to June 1916, Princip met with Martin Pappenheim, a psychiatrist in the Austro-Hungarian army, four times. Pappenheim wrote that Princip refused to accept responsibility for the consequences of his actions and that he claimed to believe the World War was bound to happen regardless, and that he "cannot feel himself responsible for the catastrophe".

The Brits had a reasonable shot (heh) at killing Hitler in 1944. Churchill nixed it, because Hitler was his own worst enemy. Never told Roosevelt about it either.

Crazy thing is, most of the 19th century European despots were pikers by 20th century standards. Read Sean McMeekin's superb history of the Russian Revolution (you can tell he's not a fan). Apparently the czars only executed about 6000 prisoners during the last few decades of their reign. The commies exceeded that within the first few months of taking over.
If you read the book, you'll be amazed at 1) the remarkable (and scary) parallels to the present moment and 2) how lucky Lenin was. As the author says, he was very fortunate in his enemies, who were worse than the Keystone Cops. Kerensky in particular was a world-historical fool.

Read about Stalin's 'imprisonment' and then read about Stalin's imprisoning others when in power. Same goes for Hitler. Read about his time in Landsberg prison to what he did when imprisoning others.
They both played at revolutionary but, when in power, made damn sure no others were ever allowed to play that game against them.

Related, anyone confronting a typically mindless rah-rah cheerleader for Ukraine and acting like this is one of the crises this same person completely pooh-pooh'd when prior ones, which were the real thing, came along, one question to fry their circuits.
Why, by 2022, was Ukraine not a NATO member? Why?

Baseball isn't really well know in the UK so some of the terms would not have the same meaning or be recognizable. 'First' could be mistaken for 'which player goes in to bat first', etc. Still funny. Now think of cricket where there are two fielding positions: Silly-Mid-On and Silly-Mid-Off, for example. If you are the First Slip, is it lacy on the bottom hem?

WASHINGTON --- Today, Representative Ronny Jackson (TX-13) introduced the No User Fees for Gun Owners Act.
This legislation would amend Title 18 of the United States Code and the National Firearms Act to ban any state or unit of local government from imposing any insurance requirement or any tax, user fee, or other similar charges as a condition of continued ownership of a firearm, pistol, or revolver.

Several commenters were kicking around the possibility that the Dems may have backdoored their way into packing the court. That is an interesting hypothetical. What's to stop Breyer from un-retiring, or Roberts from seating the new Justice immediately? The 6-3 "conservative" becomes a 5-5 tie with one defection. Probably Roberts but Kav and ACB have shown squishy tendencies.

We don't. We try not to be *over*-influenced by the people we read, but there's always an influence. If you mean by their opinions and advice rather than their work, well, you develop an instinct over time that tells you what works and feels right for you for a given story and bunch of characters. If the advice fits and improves things, fine; otherwise it can be safely ignored. But that instinct takes time to develop.
