The Morning Rant: Buck Shots [Friday 7/8/2022]
Is Europe Heading Toward a “Versailles 1789” Moment?
The farmer uprising in The Netherlands is starting to get some attention. It’s in response to their government’s “climate saving” requirement that livestock be eliminated and fertilizer use be slashed.
By going green and abandoning domestic petroleum production, Europe is also dealing with the reality that there will be blackouts this upcoming winter. THE EU is on red alert as six nations brace for blackouts over the coming winter [Express – 6/28/2022] The European elite, in obedience to their apocalyptic climate religion, have reached a point where they have decided that commoners will just have to live without food and electricity if that’s what is necessary to please their angry climate God. Well then, how are the elite faring? They’re doing just fine. Remember the World Economic Forum just a few weeks ago in Davos, attended by the most fervent believers in the Sustainable Organic Church of the Carbon Apocalypse? They might think you shouldn’t be allowed to eat hamburger, but THEY were not going to be denied some gourmet beef.
Steakhouse Ochsen, which is famous for bringing punters slabs of meat on a hot stone, said that they were still as busy as usual. “They come for the steak,” the waitress remarked.
Did you hear that the EU has voted to ban the sale of gasoline powered cars by 2035? Do you know who this hurts? Commoners, who can’t afford electric vehicles. But what about the super-rich? Don’t worry, the EU is looking out for their Davos buddies who still own yachts and fly private jets. EU Carbon Pricing Plan Has Special Exemption For Yachts [The Blaze – 01/14/2022] Corporate jets to escape EU’s ‘green’ aviation fuel tax [Irish Times – 7/13/2021] Europe is rapidly approaching a “Versailles in 1789” moment. The modern equivalents to King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette are patting themselves on the back for how they will save the planet by subjecting commoners to a cold, dark winter without food. They ought to start reading some history.
Angel Hernandez alleged in a legal filing with the Second Circuit Court of Appeals that Major League Baseball manipulated its internal umpiring metrics to disadvantage minorities, thereby excluding them from becoming crew chiefs. Hernandez is a controversial umpire, at times known for missed calls and confrontations with players and managers.There is no doubt that Angel Hernandez is a bad umpire. He’s probably the most well-known umpire in MLB, because of his difficulty in getting calls right. But I don’t care. He has accused Major League Baseball of being racist and I believe him. Actions must be taken against the racist sports league. Remember back in 2021 when - based only on emotion and not facts - MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred yanked the All-Star game from Atlanta and moved it to Denver, just because his left-wing media pals told him that Georgia’s new voting laws were racist. Well guess what, Manfred and MLB are now accused of racism. And as a taxpayer I’m not going to countenance their racism. Congress needs to revoke the anti-trust privileges of Major League Baseball. MLB, unlike any other sports league, has a peculiar Congressional privilege – it has been granted exemption from anti-trust laws. Dating back about 100 years, MLB has been given the right to act as a monopoly, with the full blessing of the federal government. I don’t know about you, but I would not be OK with the KKK receiving anti-trust exemption from Congress. Why then should we be OK with Rob Manfred’s racist sports league having an anti-trust exemption? And just for fun, here is some video of Angel Hernandez at work.

For all the screaming, the quality of umpiring in MLB is probably the best it's ever been. If we were to apply the analytics tools we have now to games from 75 years ago, we'd be shocked.

I'm pretty sure Our Betters are tired of hearing about how CO2 comprises less than one third of one percent of the atmosphere. And how in hell does that affect the weather?
So, nitrogen gas comprises about 80% of the atmosphere and now they can say ''80%!!!!!! it's 80% of the atmosphere!!!!!!!! We're all gonna Die!!111!!11

It's phosphate that causes algal blooms. Nitrogen, in the form of nitrate and ammonia is also problematic. Elemental nitrogen is inert and not a problem.

Blucher, the Prussian general, was a very interesting man. Probably their best general and also bat shit insane.
Posted by: 18-1
72 years old at Waterloo, he was a hard charger. [The] Prussians sustained a serious defeat at Ligny (16 June), in the course of which the old field marshal lay trapped under his dead horse for several hours and was repeatedly ridden over by cavalry, his life saved only by the devotion of his aide-de-camp Coun.t Nostitz, who threw a greatcoat over his commander to obscure Blucher's rank and identity from the passing French. . . . After bathing his wounds in a liniment of rhubarb and garlic, and fortified by a liberal internal dose of schnapps, Blucher rejoined his army." And pulled Wellington's chestnuts out of the fire for him.
Rhubarb, garlic, and schnapps is OK but he should've slapped hot iron to it.

In fact, Our Betters were talking in the 90s about using fertilizer or iron in the oceans to encourage algae blooms which would then die off and sink to the bottom of the ocean, where the carbon would be trapped.

Eastern Europe is still fighting the spread of progressivism and globalism to some degree, but most of Western Europe is still too comfortable and soft to strongly resist. Only the UK, the oddball of the area, managed to break free to any noticeable extent, and I think that was an unexpected and unforced error that globalist technocrats will not allow to occur again.

The new Save the Wildlife and All Other Living Things Crusade is against emissions of Nitrogen Oxides and Ammonia produced by livestock.
This insane anti-emissions crusade will never end until all humans are dead. Because at the end of the crazies' anti-emissions rainbow lies: Oxygen. High oxygen levels can be unhealthy to every aerobic organism. The breakdown of water and O2 in animal cells result in Oxygen free radicals (atomic Oxygen lacking one electron) that are believed to contribute to aging. This why anti-oxidant supplements are big sellers.
When the end of the woke harmful emissions rainbow is reached, I suppose we will be told to kill all plants to prevent them releasing oxygen. Or we'll be told to kill ourselves before oxygen kills us.

Things are certainly getting worse over there, and the people restless, but as far as trends go? At best, the government puts a temporary pause on the current unpopular giant leap towards tyranny, and pushes the agenda in some other area. While right-wing parties in Europe are seeing some gains, the far(ther) left socialists and commies are also seeing gains, as France's recent election shows.

Partially true. It's not that they didn't know how to have sex, but there was some odd thing about the shape/size of their junk that made conception very difficult. The doc finally figured it out and suggested they do X rather than Y. Maybe. Personally, I'm convinced that many of these royal couples had "children" that was not theirs. The royal houses were so desperate for heirs that if conception wasn't immediate, they would secretly bring in surrogates to get the job done.

The stone was smoking hot, 500+ degrees.
The steak was blue (basically completely rare, save for a slight exterior sear) and you cut slices off and brought them to the temperature you preferred.
It was actually quite nice, though I did have a good laugh at my daughter who ordered the chicken, which kind of defeats the point of cooking your entree to your desired temperature.

Given how important it was to have an heir (especially in many cases for the queen) I’ve often wondered if there was an oral (huh huh huh) tradition passed down from father to son and mother to daughter that’s been lost today on how to ensure conception.
This could also be something that both of them missed out on, though more likely Louis than Marie. And of course it could have been complete voodoo, too, assuming it did exist. It just seems like something that important and random would have all sorts of pigeon dancing attached to it.

The last Spanish Habsburg, "Carlos the Sufferer" was the offspring of an uncle-niece marriage, but due to all the other inbreeding the "uncle" and "niece" were actually genetically closer than a normal brother and sister. He was descended from Queen Joanna the Mad by no less than 8 separate lines.
He was, in modern terms, a "funny-looking kid" who had many grievous problems. Which, of course, were blamed on witchcraft.

They're wrong by definition, because their power lies totally in their ability to control the systems you just laid out. And when everything starts devolving, those very systems crumble. Which will leave our current elites with exactly jack shit.
Because they have no inherent power. No personal ability to project power. Their one ability is their willingness to grasp power over a very complex, chaotic system. And that ability is largely aided by the fact that no sane man or woman wants it, so these maniacs get their wish by default.
Let these systems start to fail, and it'll be off with their heads in no time. And they will be completely powerless to stop it. Clueless, even.

She's the true governor of Georgia, in exile after the election was stolen by racist Republicans (denying the results of this election does not undermine democracy).
She's also an effective lefty public speaker...kind of like Beto. She gets more points because she's uglier and has multiple oppression checkboxes ticked. Say outrageous lefty stuff in media to plant the seeds and trial balloon stuff, but dont actually hurt any incumbent Dem politicians. Plus, she does speak more eloquently than Beto, although the words are even dumber.

Usually an image search for artist works yields images that have been posted and re-posted all over the web. So you're basically just getting what some rando, or some pyrsyn with an actual agenda, has decided is representative of the artist's work.
It doesn't take much more digging to find out where the particular artist's work is housed, then go directly to that institution(s) to see what's there.

I took a look at the link and I see a bit of what you're saying. I think a lot of the photos could be seen as lewd especially the children but I see he is very interested in structure, form, and proportions and you can't view them outside of that context. They are probably most useful for artists like Divinci's Vitruvian man is. Like Divinci he also did a bunch of studies of cadaver anatomy and made castings even.
I think the search bias may be related to all those famous time exposure photos of that one naked dude that probably got him the interest of some crowds.

Hardly. People as dumb, uneducated, incurious, unworldly, and besotted with idiotic ideas and frameworks as these require no discipline to pump out the crap they do.
There's more spectacular - and real, and material - scandal in one day of the Clinton Obama or Biden administrations (or in the lawless behavior of national institutions during Trump's term) than in the previous 75 years of US history put together.
About 1% makes "the news". The useless dumbed down unworldly incurious *electorate* that makes this all possible gets more dumbed down, more misinformed.

yep.
Artists spend a lot of time around unclothed pyrsyns. It's the only way to learn how to draw the human figure. And honestly, after one gets used to seeing all that nekkid flesh in all kinds of poses, one starts to see the nude form as just another subject, like a bowl of fruit.
So the artist has a much different perspective on the human form than the normie does. Normies tend to project their own hang-ups, desires, wishes, fantasies, etc. onto an artist and s/his work.

I'm confident of one thing, the basic level of technology available to the average man in twenty years will be something less than what is available today. We ARE going to regress.
Here's the thing - since nobody wants to play along regarding what is driving all this, I guess I'll just talk to myself out loud - I think there is a collective gestalt that WANTS to regress. I think that's part of all this. I think we've hit a point where there is simply more going on that the average person can handle. They want less, but they don't know how to simply not partake.

That's the GOP for you. They ought to banish all open primaries. No one is stopping them, as the party sets the rules. No one, that is, except for the NT/RINO crowd who love open primaries, it helps them to keep down hard-core conservatives.

This has led to newborns having problems with oxygen uptake and thus "blue babies".
The Spokane River Valley and the Willamette River Valley are two areas that come to mind.
Sometimes rural farming communities get annexed into nearby cities and connected to city water and sewer (rural septic tank systems sometimes, also, contribute to nitrogen perking into aquifers) to solve the problem.
