16 And he told them this parable: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded an abundant harvest. 17 He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.’
18 “Then he said, ‘This is what I’ll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store my surplus grain. 19 And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.”’ 20 “But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’ Posted by: rhennigantx at November 05, 2024 09:26 AM (gbOdA) 48

I'd no idea Mark Cuban was the subject of a Rembrandt. Looking at this, Rembrandt has a justly deserved reputation as a artist. Posted by: blake - semi lurker in marginal standing (tT6L1) at November 05, 2024 09:26 AM (tT6L1) Posted by: 18-1 at November 05, 2024 09:26 AM (oZhjI) 51
The Parable of the Rich Fool, also known as The Money Changer,[1] is an oil painting on canvas of 1627 by Rembrandt, now in the Gemäldegalerie, Berlin.[2] Produced early in the artist's career, it depicts the eponymous Biblical parable. The model for the figure is said to have been Rembrandt's father.[1]
===== He spoke a parable to them, saying, "The ground of a certain rich man brought forth abundantly. He reasoned within himself, saying, 'What will I do, because I don't have room to store my crops?' He said, 'This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. I will tell my soul, "Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, be merry."' "But God said to him, 'You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared—whose will they be?' So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God." — Luke 12:16–21, World English Bible Posted by: andycanuck (hovnC) at November 05, 2024 09:26 AM (hovnC) Posted by: Hadrian the Seventh at November 05, 2024 09:26 AM (EsZUh) 53
The rich farmer in this parable is portrayed negatively, as an example of greed.[1] By replacing his existing barn, he avoids using agricultural land for storage purposes, thus maximising his income, as well as allowing him to wait for a price increase before selling.[1] St. Augustine comments that the farmer was "planning to fill his soul with excessive and unnecessary feasting and was proudly disregarding all those empty bellies of the poor. He did not realize that the bellies of the poor were much safer storerooms than his barns."[3]

(Hopefully, I'll keep this comment within the 100 rule bounds.)
I just got back from voting (red-flags going up) and unfortunately, they moved the election place from my old location which was a retirement home served up cookies for each voter, to a new location which also is a retirement home but they didn't have any cookies. Probably a good thing since today is also Dracula Day for me. I have to go in to have some blood drawn in a couple of hours for my annual checkup, so no need for prayers for me unless you wish to help the new location think about serving cookies for the voters in 2026, in which case if you do offer up prayers, I and the rest of the voters in precinct 18 will appreciate the thoughtfulness greatly!

Really like this one, both for the meaning and the technical aspects.
He is almost imprisoned by a fortress of old and untidy ledgers, his gaze is focused on one coin. The candlelight emphasizes his age.

So it's not that rich people, having so much at their fingertips, choose deviance for the challenge, but that they choose deviance to get rich un the first place.
Sadly, that makes sense. We see this in a lot of areas honestly - think about hazing rituals for fraternities. Oh and the guy from NVIXIM did this as well - to join the club you had to give him something he could use to destroy you if you went against him...

Rembrandt is Dutch, but he cannot help that, and so Werner does not hold that against him. He is not Belgian, at least, and that is a point in his favor. The luminosity in this one is most diverting. It reminds Werner of The Night Watch, where the Dutch Civic Militia is depicted emerging from a dark background into the glare of daylight, on some mission of importance.
If this seems inconsistent with the work's title, it comes down to the fact that the work never had that title. It was applied by an English critic, after years of wood smoke and other environmental pollutants darkened the canvas. A proper cleaning revealed it to be an assembly of musketeers stepping forward from a darkened interior into the light of day. There is also an in-joke among art historians and critics about how Rembrandt's use of shadow reveals a romantic relationship between two individuals within the painting. Werner will not reveal the details of this, but it could prove quite amusing for those who undertake the challenge of ferreting it out. A clue - prolific comics artist and all-around douche Alex Ross employs a similar technique in one of his Kingdom Come splash spages.

All three Bewalskis have voted. Almost no line, maybe 15 or so people in front of us when we lined up. Two electronic tabulation of the vote. Mine had 271 previous ballot counts. I couldn't see the other one,but it is the primary one and mine is only used when the pri.ary one has a blue hair asking g questions and holding up the line for some reason.
'Bama poll worker asked for my driver's license, scrutinized it for state issued watermarks and forgeries, handed it back to me after the checking machine scanned it, printed out my ballot ticket (registered that I had voted) and then sent me over to the ballot table where I exchanged the ticket for a ballot. Voted straight Republican ticket. One oval and all done. No desire to select any Libertarian or Donl on any of the rest of the down ballot choices. Twenty minutes end-2-end. From parking to leaving.

I don't usually think of Rembrandt paintings making a moral statement but he gets his point across with his typical brilliance. The dim (golden) light puts the emphasis on the miser with his intense examination of something. But the light is enough to show the ledgers that surround and hem him in. They are stacked haphazardly and so high it makes the viewer wonder if they will eventually bury the miser. The level of detail throughout the painting draws in the viewer's attention as he keeps noticing more and more about the scene.
The fool's expression is intent and he doesn't realize he is alone, with the implication that he will always be alone. A nice touch (if I have it right) is the cup under the single candle to catch the wax to be reused. CBD, thanks. I hadn't seen this Rembrandt before. I wonder if this image served for Dickens' Ebenezer Scrooge. Posted by: JTB at November 05, 2024 09:58 AM (yTvNw) 238

Luke 16:19
There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: and there was a beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, and desiring to be fed to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, tat the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; and in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

Kind of like how skull and bones and all of those weird rich people social clubs / fraternities allegedly force guys to do some really weird gay sexual stuff with each other to get initiated.

Beginning in June 2024, Philippi told a confidential human source (CHS) about his desire to commit a mass shooting at a YMCA facility located in or around Columbia, Tennessee. In July 2024, Philippi told another CHS about the impact of attacking large interstate substations and said that attacking several substations would “shock the system,” causing other substations to malfunction. Philippi researched previous attacks on electric substations and concluded that attacking with firearms would not be sufficient. Philippi, therefore, planned to use a drone with explosives attached to it and to fly the drone into the substation.
In September 2024, Philippi drove with undercover employees (UCEs) of the FBI to an electric substation previously researched and targeted by Philippi, and Philippi conducted reconnaissance of the substation. While driving, Philippi ordered a plastic explosive composition known as C-4 and other explosives from the UCEs. Philippi later purchased black powder to be used in pipe bombs, which Philippi intended to use during the attack on the substation. ... C-4 and black power are a WMD ?

I had to take Second Junior to his 5 year well check this morning, but on the way back I went out of my way (way out of my way, it seemed) to pass by my voting location (I voted early, though, so it was just a passby).
The elementary school had a pretty full parking lot. Didn't see a line. I also drove by a second voting location, a small church. A good number of cars, but not exactly full. We're pretty rural in a state that has embraced early voting for many cycles. No idea what to make of any of this!

today. A woman in the booth next to me was crying.

Posted by: olddog in mo at November 05, 2024 09:57 AM (ViCCR) I actually had a very similar and scary experience. I was at the polling place and a pregnant woman next to me said to her husband "if you and my boyfriend don't both for Kamala, I will have to keep this baby and you two will be forced to raise it." and her husband, with tears in his eyes, let out a soft sigh, whispered "MAGA" and said "this is my role as a cuck.

Little Dagny La Siberienne deigned to accept a tummy rub from me this morning. (She loves that)
Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere How do you achieve this, Herr Wolfus? Werner loves the kitties, and has great affection for his feline, Commander Star Sprinkles, but any attempts to give her a tummy rub leave Werner with abrasions and bites. She rolls over on her back and stretches out, signaling, hey, Kraut, give me a tummy rub. And every time Werner falls for it and he must spend significant time mending his wounds. She is like the Ayn Rand of felines - if Ayn replaced Lucy in the Peanuts comic strip, coaxing Charley Brown to kick the ball, the results would be the same, except that the injuries to Herr Brown would be far more severe, and except that Rand would taunt the battered and bleeding Charley Brown, saying What did you expect, Playah? You goin' up against the Rand and you got youtself a lifetime membership in Ayn's Bitches Club. She would lean close and whisper Don't hate the playah, fool, hate the game.

TJM,
You can blame Ed Rollins for a long running consent decree during the Reagan years in NJ that finally ended right before the 2020 election. He was bragging about paying black ministers to have the flocks stay out of voting using cash pmts. He said some other stupid things as well leading to a lawsuit against the RNC for voter suppression. RNC settled and basically abandoned election integrity. They outsourced it with predictable effects. Posted by: whig's phone at November 05, 2024 10:28 AM (ctrM5) 450

I always read that as a rich man can't buy his way into heaven not the more successful you are financially the less likely you are to go to heaven.
Posted by: 18-1 at November 05, 2024 09:35 AM (oZhjI) *** That’s part of it, but I read it mostly as an exhortation against greed. People who have been blessed with wealth will be judged on how they use that wealth. Do they hoard it and think only of themselves, or do they care for their fellow man? Do they tend to the poor and pay fair wages? Put another away: with great wealth comes great responsibility, and the rich will be judged accordingly. It’s much harder for someone who is poor to be miserly than someone who is rich, so that sin is one that wealthy people must contend with. Same as there are some people who struggle with lust or wrath more than is typical. The “camel through the eye of a needle” scene illustrates something similar. The rich man is very devout, willing to do almost anything to serve the Lord. He believes in Jesus, but when Christ commands him to give away his wealth that is too much. His attachment to wealth is a stumbling block to salvation, just as we all have our own stumbling blocks.

The “camel through the eye of a needle” scene illustrates something similar. The rich man is very devout, willing to do almost anything to serve the Lord. He believes in Jesus, but when Christ commands him to give away his wealth that is too much. His attachment to wealth is a stumbling block to salvation, just as we all have our own stumbling blocks.

393 When you hear anecdotes about packed polling places, remember Tucker's speech at the MSG rally.
They're not excited to vote for Kamala. They're not suddenly inspired to support her because she's so damn impressive. She's not winning converts and she's not driving people to the polls. Her tent was as large as it was going to be the day she ascended to the nomination. In that time, Trump has gone everywhere, spoken to everyone and put himself in front of millions who had formed uninformed opinions of him. Bask!

It seems like this campaign is the weirdest I've seen for identical allegations being leveled at both sides. Both candidates have been accused of tiring and skipping events, both have been accused of dodging tough interviews, etc. Now, I'm seeing both accused of "melting down" and internally accepting defeat.
I'm not sure who Tim Alberta is, but he tweeted: @TimAlberta Re: my comments on CNN and MSNBC this evening... yes, there are Trump staffers who no longer much care whether he wins or loses. Not exactly breaking news. Hard to overstate how terrible morale is inside of this campaign—and how much anger/resentment is felt toward the candidate. And The Hill: Hawaii Sen. Brian Schatz (D) declared Sunday that former President Trump is having a “thermonuclear meltdown” in the final days of the campaign, citing what he called “violent talk, paranoid fantasies and promises of retribution.” I'm hoping we'll have some great on-air Dem meltdowns like 2016, to make all the crap we've endured worthwhile.

Say you wanted to test a single die, so you roll it 10 times, in a certain number of sets. (1 set =10 rolls, 5=50, 10=100 and so on). By adding more sets together you'll get closer to the "true" average the die rolls. The representativeness issue is that testing die A doesn't necessarily tell you how a different die B will perform.

Beautiful Fall day here in WNY ... temps in the high 60's. No reason not to go vote.
Walked over to vote, a nice mile stroll. Very quiet, maybe 5 people voting. The other party self identified by the wearing of WhuFLu masks. Once again, the Erie County GOPe beclowns themselves: no signage for any Republican candidate. They also supported every candidate for higher Court Offices that the Dems did. There were no Republicans running for the three Family Court offices ... but at least they didn't run the Dems on the Rep line. I was surprised that there wasn't one Trump sign. Last campaign, his placards were everywhere leading up to the polling place. Also of note was the fact that signage was noticeably lower for all parties ... election fatigue?

A mentally ill 40-year-old man, whose health rapidly declined after receiving three COVID-19 shots, was euthanized in Canada under Justin Trudeau’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program. Millions of vaccine-injured citizens are seen to be a “drain on the system,” so rather than pay out insurance compensation, the Canadian authoritarian Government has opted to kill off its own citizens. Under the new program’s assessment, the man was allegedly suffering from post-COVID-19 “vaccination syndrome,” known as myalgic encephalomyelitis or chronic fatigue syndrome.

Jones specifically pointed to poor Philadelphia turnout for Democrats and concerns over Jewish voters. "Well, I’m just nervous all the time. So I don’t feel good about nothin’ and I’m not gonna feel good about nothin’ ’til it’s over. I’m worried." "Philadelphia is where we’ve gotta run up a big margin, but Philly overall has been trending down, not in terms of going toward the Republicans, just people not getting out to vote." "And so you got people out there like Pastor Carl Day, who’s got a bunch of young men with him knockin’ on doors, trying to get people to come out."

You can't go wrong with a Rembrandt. Even a so-so Rembrandt is still very good compared to the majority of artists.
