16 Businesses can now identify as LBGT and be recognized.

This is one gay man's response to that on the local online paper:

As a Gay man I find this unacceptable. Extreme Activists have hijacked gay rights. I wanted equal treatment. Not special treatment. We achieved equality but these Leftist Progressives have made too much of Trans, 87 Genders, indoctrination of gender and trans with kids and are just plain too weird. I want to know who added the Q because being called a queer was not complimentary. It is like the N word as far as i'm concerned. The more letters they add the more they divide us and take us backwards. I fear a backlash but also fear if the Left continues to win they will eventually turn on gay people. There was never a Socialist/Marxist regime that was friendly to gays. Instead of trying to obtain preferential treatment and demanding we find purple haired 14 year old girls who want to be boys the norm we should be concentrating our efforts worldwide in countries where they throw us off roofs. Maybe some of these Marxist Gays should take a trip to Chechnya and see if they can make it out of there alive. After all this, is the type of government these fool

40 Top o'the morning y'all! Yeah Buddy!

It's Sunday and you know time it is, amirite. Tee time. And a rant before I go.

So my daughter moved to Maine from SC last year. She left some stuff in storage. Well, she finally figured out she couldn't afford to come after it and she couldn't afford to keep it in storage at $90 per month. So guess who's gotta clean out all her stuff AND clean the appliances and sell them.

The washer, dryer and range weren't too bad, but her idiot boyfriend had ratchet strapped the doors closed on the French Door fridge...yeah, it was nasty. And that's not even the rant.

So I list the appliances on Facebook marketplace with what I think are great prices for fairly new appliances. $250 for a less than four year old washer and dryer? So far, I've been stood up by the first two people who said they wanted them. I set the meet up at a very public place for their "safety" and a time to be there so I could take them to where the appliances are stored. I gave them my phone number and implored them to please call me if they were running late or changed their mind. But Nooooooo...I sit there and wait for an hour in a damn parking lot for them to show up.

Decided to pull off the shelf Bjo Trimble's Star Trek Concordance second edition to refresh my memory on war in the universe. There were three major wars in this timeline.

1. Late 20th Century the Eugenics War - "Space Seed."
2. Mid-21st century there was a WWIII in which nuclear weapons were used. 37 million were killed and large parts of Earth devastated. - "Bread and Circuses"
3. Earth-Romulan War which occurred 100 years before Season One of TOS - "Balance of Terror"

Will have to re-watch "Bread and Circuses" to get the full skinny on this passing reference.

In supporting the ongoing National Mandate to murder the unborn, they claim death and murder as a birth right, and opposing their National Mandate is somehow dangerous to this disgusting little pet hyena they trot out and call "democracy."

128 So I wanted to get on Facebook for one reason and one reason only - the local marketplace. It has largely replaced Craigslist - at least in my area. However I am NOT allowing FB to know my true identity, my browsing on other websites or anything about me.
So I setup an Azure virtual machine Windows instance, used a protonmail alias, Brave and a Google Voice VOIP number to register an account. Joined 3 different buy/sell groups and was on my merry way. Then FB disabled my account and told me that I had to verify it using a picture of me. Oh hell no. So I sent a rather inappropriate picture and now my account is permanently disabled.
Oh well.

That makes sense. Just about every baby formula item on Amazon is same or next day delivery.
Here's some prices:
Amazon Baby Formula various brands:
(4) 32 ounce $216.98
(4) 22 ounce $136.00
(4) 19.5 ounce $149.96

Some advertisers say that amount is a years supply. So a little more than $10.00 a month. Am I a heartless conservative in thinking that's not a lot of money? Compared to an average adult costing around $150.00 a month for food.

Why do you meet the devil at the crossroads? And the answer is, most fundamentally, because when you come to a place in your life where you have to make a choice you aim up or down. And there is always an agent of temptation at every choice point, enticing you to aim down.

It turns out, when the Court ruled that Honest Elections were dispensable, it didn't appease the Syndicate, it only encouraged them.

CNN says the danger to the Court which necessitated the barricades isn't from left-wing mobs. It's from right-wingers planning to attack those mobs.

I'd call it bullshit--except Pelosi and Wray may well be planning another False Flag-Riot for their Concertina Government.

188 "earlier this week, a draft opinion revealed the Supreme Court is preparing to overturn Roe v. Wade. This would deal a devastating blow to Americans' fundamental freedom to make their own decisions about their health care and families"

Without context, one would naturally think that this is the primary complaint against Obamacare.

But we are talking about killing babies. If "own decisions about families" is this open-ended, then where is the weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth over kidnapping? Isn't that the whole point of an Amber Alert is to notify everyone around that someone made their "own decision about families" and decided that they needed to have an additional member or to see their spawn, taken by the courts, more often?

I'm pretty sure the way the Facebook algorithm worked for facial recognition is if anyone had 'tagged' a picture with your name, anywhere else your picture appeared it would recognize it and supply your name.

The 'tagging' process was you scrolled over the face, a box would appear, then you typed in the persons name.

Facebook seems to have halted the process of supplying the name on untagged images, for now. But they have it all ready. It's evil.

Because this is an insane world I know of people who would ask/demand that any photos taken at group events not include them; things like church photos, or graduation classes for martial arts. Mostly because those taking the photos can not be trusted to NOT put them on social media.

Someone, somewhere would abuse that knowledge.

226 A remembrance of Mom: As a young 20 something, I helped my Dad to trim a monster maple. I climbed to the very top of a fully extended extension ladder to cut a big branch with a chain saw. Naturally, I did a poor job of it and the cut branch swept down and took out the ladder. I fell hard and suffered a concussion, fractured skull, and broken arm, collar bone, and leg. The squad was called.

While waiting for the EMTs to arrive, I came to (sort of) and mumbled "I think broke my f*cking leg."

Mom, who was kneeling beside me, said in her (very rare) scolding voice "I know you hurt, but we just do not talk that way here!".

I want to have a team of people call '60s oldies stations in Leftist cities and ask for all the depressing songs of the era. Leaving on a Jet Plane, etc.
----
I was dating my future wife, just spending ALL our free time together but nothing official and I liked all the different versions of that song [Peter. Paul and Mary; John Denver]. It played on an occasion when I was scheduled to fly off back to South Africa (months yet to go) and a few minutes later I caught her quietly crying. That had the effect of focusing my attitude from a casual relationship into what it had developed, for one person at least since I hadn't got there yet. Typical man. Never had doubts though. That song remained special for us particularly in our 'dusty' abode. Unfortunately, after 45 years in March 2021, I suddenly lost her to a pulmonary thrombosis. .... Typing this must have caused the pollen to arise.

258 He never comments about stuff like that, but it's so bad that even he is noticing the pain. F*ck Joe Biden. 'Bout all I can say.

259 63 How did Venezuela become Venezuela?

Look around at what is happening around you.

Yep in Geography I learnt that Venezuela was a beautiful country, rich in natural beauty, rich in minerals, oil and gas. Place names that sounded either adventurous or romantic -- Caracas (noise, dancing); Maracaibo, a name that looks complicated but instead rolls off the tongue (at least for an Italian speaker); Valencia -- we're almost in Spain; Margarita Island -- those wonderful cold sundowners flowing all day?
What could go wrong?!

Venezuela - were with the help of Dominion you can vote the socialists into office but to get rid of them you have to shoot their asses into Kingdom Come - or further south.

Usually no response.

This week out of the blue I got a reply "I'll be praying for womens rights".
i replied with "What rights do I have that women do not have? I like to be informed and I pray about it too." The response was several pages of text straight out of modern acedemia and BLM/Tranny/LGBTQ bullshit.
I am still stunned.

262 4 Disney has cut ties with Fred Savage as the executive producer and director of The Wonder Years after an investigation into allegations of "inappropriate conduct" was launched.

They do not say what the inappropriate conduct was.

He liked to fondle young girls' freshly shampooed hair.
