Literal Violence Duckling Cafe

arobello.jpg
Alberobello, Italy

That's probably a repeat but I don't want to bother checking.


Icy seas.

Lava flow in the ocean.

A crashing wave extends its peacock feathers.

Monaco's sea wall is the best television I've seen in months.

Meditative mutt.

Fugitive cow is arrested.

Faking a moving train for a movie.

More of the Literal Violence Duckling.

52 In progressive politics when someone from a less privileged position than you, like trans people, say you did something to offend them it's traditional to listen

There's a reason why the phrase "check your privilege" arose in progressive and left wing politics. You can't be from the left and think it's ok to ignore the concerns of people with less privilege than you. If trans people say you are being offensive perhaps you could sit down

---
They don't want you to just listen. They want you to listen, then conform to whatever they demand. And this leads to a never ending fight for the bottom of the oppression ladder, because the person who holds the bottom of the ladder in this perverse system wields the most power.

66 I haven't paid much attention to the bank shooting (beyond noting that if the media jumps immediately to blah blah blah so much anger in the world and we need healing, it must have been an out and proud leftist) so maybe it bucks the trend, but pretty much all of these incidents are dysfunctional and rather well to do white people shooting other white people. It occurs to me that if any of the usual-suspect race hustlers were in it for more than the cultural Marxism, they'd roast the bejeezus out of people like Camera Hogg for only caring about heavily honkified gun violence while blithely ignoring the fields of black bodies in gun-grabby Donkey Town.

78 Supermarkets are already renegotiating floor space for Bud Light and other Bud products. I'm hearing rumbling of stores refusing entire pallets. I've actually never seen anything like this and I lived through New Coke.
Do you know what happens when a very large supermarket refuses half a semi? There is a cascade. That driver then has to return without an empty trailer, half a load taken up with unsaleable product. This is a disaster the likes of which I've never personally seen, really.
And previously delivered product anticipating nice weather is now being yanked for something anything that might sell. I'm kind of in awe, it takes real work to create a catastrophe of this magnitude.

104 I had to change this to tiers because of the spam rules but this is the order from first to last of Official Intersectionality Chart as I saw it almost exactly one year ago. I don't think much has changed. Maybe pedophiles have now leapfrogged to #2 right behind trannies, it's getting close. You can expect blacks to make their every four year Election Year climb sometime in 2024.

Since I started tracking it (half-jokingly) in about 2013 there have been moderate changes. Mostly how far muslims and gays have fallen since they used to rule the top.

Tier 1 - Trans, Violent Felons, Illegal Aliens, Pedophiles, Blacks, Muslims
Tier 2 - Gay, Lesbian, Hispanic, Leftist "Republicans", Communist Dictators
Tier 3 - Other Dictators, American Indians
Tier 4 - Dead People, Ugly Women
Tier 5 - Pretty Women, Actual Aliens, Everyone Else
Tier 6,000,000 - Conservatives, Jews, Christians

141 Speaking of epic corporate fails and reinforcing stereotypes through thuggish wokery, also hilarious to hear that Drizzt was supposed to be in the D&D movie but got cut because ermagerd racism. For the uninitiated, drow are a dark-elf race that were written to be always evil all the time. Drizzt Do'Urden is a drow character created by a very well known fantasy author who is not evil, is a total badass, and gets into a lot of fights because his personal code of honor conflicts with grimdark fantasy stuff. In other words he's a walking, talking, in-universe example of broad racial stereotypes are bad, mmkay, and it was all done in such a way that isn't overly preachy or artificial. An *actual* anti-racist character, not to be confused with the explicitly racist "anti racism" of putting everyone in one of two classes based only on skin color. Oh, yes, and he's probably also the most popular and broadly recognized character in the entire canon.

So of course Woke D&D can't have something like that in their movie. Idiots.

I guess this will be a "get off my lawn" rant, but...damn. Whatever happened to a sense of duty? And humility? And personal dignity? What force made too much of a whole generation, and one relative of mine, become put-upon, passively-aggressive losers who wallow in self pity?

The part that irritates me is that nothing serves any purpose other than showing off special effects or having three to eight seasons of "these people talked and then went here and talked"

There are no morality lessons taught any longer because America doesn't share any sense of morality. And that's terrifying to recognize.

178 A thought on the Bud Light thing. Seems to me that Old Spice, in the face of similar pressures (old fashioned primarily) chose, instead of woke, hyper-masculine and funny. I think they even said good enough to get your grandpa laud, good enough for you. A similar campaign would have probably paid dividends for Bud. But wholesale insult of existing base plus Bud, the beer for the queer? Seems like a really bad move.

The Republicans *support* it. This part:

"Republicans support warrantless searches to be followed by jail time if someone is found to have TikTok installed on their phone?"

I've contacted both of my NC (R) Senators and my (R) House rep. They all have told me it has to pass because Tik Tok is bad. And - not joking - if it infringes on our rights we can just take it to the Supreme Court and they'll overturn it.

I can't believe it, but I saw Mercury tonight, with a good bit of angular room above the tree line.

Tonight is the maximum eastern elongation of Mercury (the angular distance between it and the Sun is at maximum to the east, offering the best chance to see it at sunset).

This was around 8:50PM EDT, when I saw it. Longitude roughly 81W.

Check it out an hour after sunset, or before.

The six-year plus global temperature pause continued for another month in March. We live in a Globalist Empire of Lies.

World Surface Temp in March:
"March of 2023 was jointly the second warmest March globally. While temperatures were above average over southern and central Europe, over most of northern Europe temperatures fell below average."
(March 2023 tied with March 2017, 2019, and 2020. March 2016 is the hottest global March "on record.")

https://tinyurl.com/mrywf5ea

US March 2023 average surface temp:
"The average monthly temperature across the contiguous U.S. was 40.7 degrees F (0.8 of a degree above the 20th-century average), which ranked in the middle third of the 129-year climate record.

Temperatures were above average from the southern Plains to New England and in parts of the Great Lakes. Florida had its eighth-warmest March on record. Below-average temperatures were recorded from the northern Plains to the West Coast, with Oregon seeing its third-coolest March, and California, Nevada and North Dakota each having their fifth coolest."

We Catholics pray to St. Joseph for a "happy death" because he was surrounded by Jesus and Mary when he died. I told Jane that step one was in place for her husband, as his wife and son will be there with him. I will pray to St. Joseph to do the rest, and may the Lord take her husband home in peace.

Yes, 10 am Eastern. I will post something in the art thread to remind everyone so we can "be there" by sending out prayers.

250 Prayers up for Jane and family. Thank you bluebell for keeping us updated.

At 10am tomorrow, a chorus of Hordeling prayers will arise

251 I've been out for a long time and I didn't know about. Jane's situation. are we doing anything besides praying? A fund, anything?

I've asked her to let us know what she needs. You probably didn't see this, but he had a relapse yesterday afternoon, a repeat of what happened in December, which was a sudden onset of double pneumonia. He was without oxygen for a very long time while they did CPR on him and waited for an ambulance. He's been in the ICU since then and has not regained consciousness. His family and Jane's sister came today to say their goodbyes, as did many of their friends.

253 You know, it's kind of funny that there is only one article from one (R) on fighting the RESTRICT Act, isn't it?

A campaign piece in a way, I guess.

Huh. Zero results. Probably a coincedence.

255 They will be taking him off life support at 10 am tomorrow morning. Please, let's send all the prayers we can to ease his passing and also ease the grief of Jane and her son.

Whoa. That is heartbreaking. An extra prayer from me for Jane and her hubs will be forthcoming in the morning.

I'm pretty sure they are one of the good guys.

Posted by: Tonypete at April 11, 2023 09:47 PM (4nwqc)

269 Given the (still bizarre, hysterical) overall response, it was a near-certainty that special forces and Other Government Agencies would have people in UKR since the unpleasantness started (and it was known that plenty of both were already there, for years, prior).

And I wouldn't be so sure returning remains are from those elements. Lots and lots of "soldiers of fortune" on the UKR side. A Russian social media channel runs a regular feature on individuals who were/are part of the "international legion". They're from all over the world. Sometimes their demise is part of the individual profile, sometimes their date of departure from the theater.

And several NATO "allies" have had training and other missions there, for years. Some connected to military sales, some not. UKR was in a "creeping de facto NATO membership" mode for several years. Which is almost the entirety of Russia's motivations and objectives in all this.

Can attest to the power of Horde prayers - being 14+ months in similar shoes to the ones Jane D'oh is soon likely to be in. The Horde and all of your prayers mean more to me than I can ever adequately express.

Posted by: Doof at April 11, 2023 09:52 PM (yUjc0)

274 Thanks for the info about Yuengling. I hear so much here in the threads that sometimes the details get jumbled.

Yep, that was my first year there. I remember she was such a hoot. She reminds me of one of my SIL's. The hair, face everything.

276 Thank you all so much for the prayers on behalf of Jane and her family. I'm sorry to put such a damper on the thread but I know you all want to know. She's been texting me and letting me know how much she appreciates all the prayers you are offering on her family's behalf. She's not reading the thread, but she knows the Horde, and she knows how good you all are. Thank you again.

Why is the roller operator wearing a face diaper?


Because it happened in Mexico back during the height of C19 hysteria in 2020. The beer was past shelf-life and was illegally smuggled in.

278 Lord, my hear is breaking for Jane and doh boy. Mr. doh is just the nicest man and i hate it that he will be gone tomorrow morning.
It was nice to meet them in Texas - mr. doh and mr. snailracer enjoyed chatting, as did mr. bluebell and mr. snailracer. It was a mome to remember.
God bless the doh family. This sucks.

279 One last thing - if you could pray that Jane gets a good night's sleep, as much as possible. I just asked God to life her sorrows to enable her to rest for the day ahead. Thanks again.

I'm heading out - if someone could please let folks in the ONT know about the situation, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

284 Bud Light. The VP of Marketing. She is a product of East Coast asininity. And maybe people can gloat but that VP, has in not even a WEEK cratered a large revenue stream of supermarket and convenience store and gas station income.
My income depends on, oh, selling products to people who want to buy them, and this absurd creature has been put in the tip of the spear, with either her actually given the power, or being the straw woman, to destroy a major selling brand of blue and no collar beer.
It's a major financial hit. MAJOR.

295 As pointed out, Budweiser distribution is independent franchise. These are local businesses. I'm already hearing verifiable stories of retailers refusing entire trucks. This is serious, liquor/beer is a major revenue stream.
This imbecilic bitch is now the spear point of Trans Attack nationwide, so she/he/it whatever can suck anything.
And she appears to have oozed out of some isolated cocoon in the East Coast. I looked her up, and despite most of it now scrubbed she's a vicious piece of shit. Bud Light is swill, yes: but it WAS a top selling product to working people.
Now it's not.
