As SC_Reviews says in his Australian accent: "Not even once, mate."

In other words, I wouldn't f*** that with a busted-up duct-taped dick I borrowed from the Tijuana Cock Library with a fake ID card.

Not even once, mate. Not even once.

That's the Biblioteca de Pija, by the way. A bit rank, a bit semen-y.

Oberlin College is another lawsuit that stems from their defamation of a bakery's owners as racists: Now they're suing their insurance company for refusing to pay the $37 million that Oberlin owes the shop owners for slander. Serves them right.

This article doesn't say why the insurers aren't paying. My speculation is that the insurance company would say that the defamation was intentional bad behavior, not accidental or negligent behavior, and the policy does not cover intentional acts.

Most (or all) policies do not cover intentional acts, as that would simply grant the insured the right to wrong whoever he likes without personal consequence, and decide when he's going to mulct his insurer out of a couple or twenty million here or there.

I think that's right, because Oberlin is claiming that the insurer promised they would pay "some if not all" of the damages. I think Oberlin is attempting to claim the insurers made a superseding oral contract which supplemented/replaced the actual written contract for insurance -- which would assuredly have a provision stating that they will not pay for damages due to intentional acts.

Oberlin College has sued four of its insurance providers to make them cover the multimillion-dollar judgment that Gibson's Bakery won against the school in 2019 over false claims of racism.
The wealthy liberal arts college in northern Ohio filed a suit in April against four insurance companies, saying they wrongfully refused 'to honor promises they made in their respective policies to protect' the school.
Oberlin seeks the money to cover the $36.6 million it paid out last year to Gibson's Bakery.
In that case, jurors ruled the school had defamed the small business by describing it as racist, after the store owner chased down three black students who stole from the business in November 2016.
The incident sparked large student protests and a boycott that nearly tanked the business.
Oberlin's new suit is against Lexington Insurance Company of New York; United Educators Insurance of Bethesda, Maryland; Mount Hawley Insurance Company of Peoria, Illinois; and StarStone Specialty Insurance Company of Cincinnati.
It was filed at Lorain County Common Pleas Court and was assigned to Judge Chris Cook.
In its lawsuit, Oberlin says it had 'at least $75 million in total insurance coverage' at the time of the bakery incident.
That was 'more than enough to pay the underlying judgment and substantial unpaid defense costs' from its six-year legal battle with Gibson's.
This included $25 million in commercial umbrella liability coverage from Lexington; $10 million from Mount Hawley; $5 million from StarStone; and $25 million in overlapping educators legal liability coverage from United Educators, court papers show.
The college received $1 million from one of the insurers, but 'also incurred millions of dollars in defense costs pursuing its appeals,' says the lawsuit.
'The defendant insurers have failed to pay a penny toward the $36,590,572.48 sum that Oberlin paid the Gibson's plaintiffs,' the lawsuit says.
'They also have failed to pay for the full cost of Oberlin's appeals, which were pursued at the behest of the insurers in order to reduce their collective exposure.'
The insurers had told the college that 'some, if not all, of the damages' would be covered, the lawsuit claims.
Instead, Lexington and United Educators 'engaged in a systematic, multi-year effort to avoid their coverage obligations' by passing the buck to the other insurers, the suit claims.
They could have settled for less than $10 million before going to trial, it adds.

That money also would have come without a decade of abuse and suspicion of the bakers, and before their patriarch died. That man died with Oberlin's vicious slander still uncompensated.

The left are really vile, despicable "people," aren't they?

There's so much white supremacy and minorities are so oppressed and disadvantaged that white people just can't stop pretending to be minorities for professional, financial, and social advancement.

Three University of Kansas professors now accused of falsely claiming Native American ancestry

Accusers say all three professors are white and have built careers on false claims
Three University of Kansas professors, historian Kent Blansett, biologist Raymond Pierotti and geographer Jay Johnson, now have been accused of fraudulently representing themselves as Native Americans.
Blansett (pictured, left) was accused of misrepresenting his lineage by journalist Jacqueline Keeler, who investigates those who falsely claim Native American ancestry, as well as by AncestorStealing, a website that publishes research on the subject, The College Fix reported earlier this month.
On the heels of that article, The Kansas City Star recently reported that "some Native grassroots groups and researchers allege [Professor] Raymond Pierotti in the department of ecology and evolutionary biology and [Professor] Jay Johnson in the department of geography and atmospheric science are also 'pretendians' -- slang to designate someone faking Native American heritage."
These accusers "say, based on independent research of the men's family trees, that the professors are white, and white only, and that they've built careers and profits off of a lie," according to the Star.

But there are so many, many advantages to being white -- why would they not admit their true race and reap the bountiful harvest of White Privilege??!!!

Is this real? I don't even know anymore.

claim against his ex-boyfriend demanding the return of his amputated testicles which he says are being kept in a jar in the refrigerator.
Brianna Dee Kingsley, aka Zahrah Bri-Zee Muharib. Source: Facebook
Brianna Kingsley, 40, filed the claim against William Wojciechowski, 37, in Pontiac's 50th District Court on Thursday. In a handwritten affidavit, Kingsley wrote: "Defendant retains possession of my surgically extracted testicles, preserved in [a] Mason jar, kept in [the] fridge next to the eggs. Demand immediate return of my human remains specimen and damages of $6,500."
Kingsley is also known as Zahrah Bri-Zee Muharib on social media, an Arabic name, and appears to have recently converted to Islam.
In April, Kingsley uploaded a video to his TikTok account titled "The Unboxing of Dee's Nutz," which depicts him removing a clear bag with a biohazard label while wearing a lace veil and a pink dress.
The video is captioned, "Transgender woman unboxes her surgically extracted lady balls that was [sic] packaged by the Hospital that performed her gender-affirming bottom surgery." Smiling and laughing, Kingsley holds up the bag containing his testicles before returning them to the box and performing a curtsy. In the background behind him, a painting of a nude woman with testicles can be seen.

It is in fact real, says the Daily Caller.

"America, the Shining City on a Hill." Maybe 30 years ago.

A transgender-identifying person in Pontiac, Michigan, is suing his ex-boyfriend for allegedly keeping his testicles in a jar in the fridge and refusing to return them, the Detroit News reports.
"Defendant retains possession of my surgically extracted testicles, preserved in (a) Mason jar, kept in (the) fridge next to the eggs. Demand immediate return of my human remains specimen and damages of $6,500," Brianna Kingsley, a 40-year-old biological man who identifies as a woman, said in an affidavit, according to the outlet.
Kingsley made the claims against 37-year-old William Wojciechowski in Pontiac's 50th District Court in a two-page affidavit Thursday. Wojciechowski says he sees the affidavit as a continuation of his ex's prolonged pattern of harassment and threats against him.

Axios: Joe Biden's surprising weakness with working class voters.

Is it surprising though? You want to force their kids to be sexually indoctrinate in transgenderism and then take the kids away from them when they protest, and send the kids off to Groomer Sanctuary states to have their dicks and tits cut off.

Did you expect to be congratulated? You did, didn't you?

One of the main reasons President Biden is struggling in polls against former President Trump is his glaring underperformance with a constituency that has long been overwhelmingly Democratic: non-white voters without a college degree.
Why it matters: As Democrats have made major gains with suburban and upper-middle-class voters since Trump's political ascendance, they've been losing support among blue-collar voters.
Pundits have focused heavily in recent years on white, working-class voters who changed their allegiances from former President Obama to Trump -- and have made up a key part of the new GOP coalition.
But Democrats have lost significant ground among their non-white counterparts as well, turning a political weakness into a major headache heading into 2024.

NBC "News:" The Biden "brand" is damaged.

That's too bad because the Bidens were selling it for $5 million a pop before. What can they get for it now? Every day Joe Biden is closer to the grave and every day that Biden brand value declines.

It's tempting to ignore/dismiss the Hunter Biden problem, and I was trying, but I've changed my mind. It's time for Dems, allies and the president to get nervous, tough and practical. We can't afford a Benghazi/emails debacle in 2024.

I suppose the good news here is that the article acknowledge that there is at least an optics problem with Joe Biden getting on the speakerphone with Hunter's "business" associates, while the Biden family -- out of love, you understand -- accepted tens of millions of dollars from foreign governments and gangsters.

What I mean, is: This writer says she's been "trying to ignore" the Hunter Biden issue but no longer can, and wants the White House to "manage" Hunter Biden and keep him out of sight.

Combine that with NBC "News's" grudging admission -- and soft wake-up call for their fellow liberals -- that this Hunter Biden influence-peddling story is real and "challenges" Biden.

The media always falls back from hills they've lost in staged retreats. First they claim there's nothing at all to a story, and that it's nothing but Conspiracy Theories and RUSSIAN MISINFORMATION.

Then they concede: Well we might have an "optics" problem. Or even a "messaging" problem.

That's the most the propaganda Regime Media will ever concede. But these "stories" taken together mean that even in the paid shill leftwing propaganda media, there is fear.

God knows what normal people think.

40 I don’t know what Insurance companies Oberlin have but I’ve never worked for one that did not send out a Reservation of Rights letter in cases such as this where coverage of a claim may be in question because of the cause of actions and the policy exclusions.

If they didn’t then Oberlin does have a case whether the policy excludes or not based on the courts rulings.

Usually though Insurance companies will provide a defense with this reservation of rights because plaintiff attorney’s are smart enough to include cause of actions in the suit that are covered under the policy or make possible excluded causes ambiguous .

Don't ask me how, they just are.

A very interesting question, from all that I've read it was a 2 pronged settlement process. Asians walked over the land bridge (permafrost) from Asia to Alaska and continued south all the way to Central America.
The 2nd prong was of Polynesian origin and came up thru Chile, Peru and Ecuador.

82 I don’t know what Insurance companies Oberlin have but I’ve never worked for one that did not send out a Reservation of Rights letter in cases such as this where coverage of a claim may be in question because of the cause of actions and the policy exclusions.

If they didn’t then Oberlin does have a case whether the policy excludes or not based on the courts rulings.

Usually though Insurance companies will provide a defense with this reservation of rights because plaintiff attorney’s are smart enough to include cause of actions in the suit that are covered under the policy or make possible excluded causes ambiguous .

Posted by: polynikes at August 08, 2023 06:36 PM

Gonna go out on a limb and say that oberlin is lying about everything. They have lied in court and under oath right out of the gate and there is zero reasons for them to claim their insurance would cover the judgement.

Pretty sure each of the four insurance companies they had retained let them know from day one they would not be covering any judgement in this case because oberlin was a bad actor from the get go when the unleashed those students saying the bakery was filled with racists and should be destroyed.

From that point on, Archer tried to not work, and slide from one politically connected thing to the next, hoping to somehow strike it rich by knowing people and stumbling onto something good, by accident.

Everything wrong with Washington is exemplified by this POS.

142 Concerning Oberlin College. They likely have a huge self-insured retention plan (think of it as a huge deductible) They would handle the claim in house until the reserves they set tipped the reporting threshold. Then they would be obligated to officially report the claim to the Re-insurers and Umbrella carriers. I'll bet that Oberlin severely under reserved it, and didn't report it to the carriers in reasonable fashion, and those carriers picked it up under a hold harmless agreement and disclaimer (not guaranteeing coverage due to this behavior). So, in short, Oberlin assumed that their position was the only reasonable one, and they are going to have to pay most of this out of pocket for that ignorance and conceit. Bummer

From that point on, Archer tried to not work, and slide from one politically connected thing to the next, hoping to somehow strike it rich by knowing people and stumbling onto something good, by accident.

Everything wrong with Washington is exemplified by this POS.

Otherwise, if you look at a map of the country with the red/blue counties colored by means of who they voted for, its clear that the vast landmass (rural/working-class) voted for Trump. It was the urban core comprised of welfare deadbeats and criminals who voted 110% for Biden.

Older Oberlin alumni ought to be bailing, if they haven't already. Oberlin was founded by two pastors. One of its early Presidents was Charles Grandison Finney who is known in many evangelical circles as a fine preacher and evangelist and theologian. I knew someone who went there in the 1950's. She was a wonderful Christian woman who got a fine education and later become a pastor. I would call her an actual moderate Democrat. She was appalled at what Oberlin did to those shop owners and stopped giving to the school.

231 My favorite ancestor was a cranky old Scot who got kicked off his land in the 1730's or so, so he emigrated here. When the Revolution came he insisted on going to fight with his two sons, even though he was almost 80 at the time. They recorded , and it has always been remembered by his descendants, then when anyone would ask why someone as old as him would want to fight he'd reply "I been waitin' me whole life for the chance to kill Englishmen, and I ain't gonna let nothing stop me now!"

239 What I think they really fear is Biden dying soon. That would make Kamala President, which would lead to serious bloodletting in the primary. They'd have to choose between sticking with their weakest possible candidate, and rejecting the first woman president - a woman of color, at that. Note that Biden resigning wouldn't help.

They HAVE to figure out a way to Agnew her.

(That is also our one hope to win, IMO. I know it makes me a bad person, but fuck it. The sooner Joe is dead and in Hell, the better. There. I said it.)

I thought that if the insurance companies were on the hook, they handled the legal defense. Sounds like Oberlin handled the case to score woke points, lost horribly, and then demanded that the insurance company pay for their ineptitude.

Posted by: The ARC of History! at August 08, 2023 07:04 PM

This is my understanding. oberlin did everything the insurance companies said not to do and kept attacking the bakery as a white supremacist racist business trying to intimidate them into silence and make them into being bad guys and having to apologize to oberlin. They doubled down on their attacks after any reasonable person would have backed off and said....hey maybe this isn't working.

Pretty sure all of their insurance companies sent them cease and desist letters and said they would not be covered if they kept up that behavior.

(Ice age) tracks of giant sloths, sabertooths, mammoths, and yes, groups of human footprints mixed in with them. Conventional archeology had said no humans got here before 12k - 14k years ago, but all of these tracks are being dated as 20k - 22k years old. It's almost haunting - no artifacts or bones, just their footprints preserved for all this time in hard dried gypsum mud.

Clovis was mostly a south-central US technology that utilized savanna and open forest. Although there is an argument that the form follows function for big game points it is an interesting argument.

For a long time "Clovis was the first peoples" was the only acceptable position to take, all others would get you thrown out of your teaching position. Now there is proof of earlier peoples, back to the middle or older Dryan glaciations, predating Clovis

310 Many tribes keep changing the requirements to be considered a member. It was 1/8, or 1/16. but kept getting diluted. Some have said any direct descendant of member as of a certain date, and that means eventually everyone.

Yeah, I thought that most tribes had switched to "must be a direct descendent of an enrolled tribal member".

A buddy of mine was a research assistant working on a dig in Montana. The lead researcher removed and threw away some horse bones they unearthed where they "didn't belong." Everyone knows horses came from Europe in the late 1400s, so in the bin they went.

My buddy was shocked. Sure, he doesn't believe horses were here before, but you don't just throw real archeological evidence away because it doesn't fit your beliefs, right?

Made a habit of conducting fighting retreats when the Rebs made the infantry run at Second Bull Run, Chancellorsville and Gettysburg. They then went out west and some credit the Battery Commander with pot shotting a Reb Lt General in Georgia. Got a shot in a foot at Kennesaw Mt and survived to go home and get a pension for him, and after for his wife.

It's not how it works. It is statistics and no population is 100% distinct. It is like seeing a male who is short and saying they must be part woman because they are in the 2.5 percentile for men. No, they are a man who overlaps with female height characteristic.

Eventually we will be able to test enough to make a distinction but never trust the BS from the genealogy companies.

Well Lewis and Clark did stumble onto an Indian tribe that they called "half white" in their travels, they called the Mandans. Most likely they were descendants of Norse explorers in the area hundreds of years before Columbus even thought of coming to America but they were pretty much killed off by other tribes, most notably the Sioux and disease before they could be studied.

351 Ngāti Hotu was a Māori tribe that, according to tradition, lived in the central North Island of New Zealand in the area surrounding southern Lake Taupō, where the Ngāti Tūwharetoa tribe now resides.

Ngāti Hotu were believed to have been part of the Tini o Toi Tribes of the Bay of Plenty and tradition describes Ngāti Hotu as 'a very fierce and warlike people' whom it took many generations of warfare to destroy, beginning from around the year 1450. Other traditions describe them as spirit people, which as is typical in Māori tradition, had reddish hair and skin, symbolising their tapu nature.[1][2]
