Sunday Overnight Open Thread - February 16, 2025 [Doof]
Howdy Hordelings, and welcome to the Sunday ONT! Hope you enjoyed Valentine's Day weekend. No details, please - this is a family friendly establishment. Actually - go ahead and share whatever details you want as you step inside!
Here is an extended look (4 mins) at the 3 fights. Another short video recap. "The red, white, and blue went north of the border and bullied Canada."Last night Team Canada learned FAFO:
— Byron Donalds (@ByronDonalds) February 16, 2025
1–They booed our anthem
2–So we get into 3 fights in the first 9sec
3–We then net 3 unanswered goals
4–We blast Free Bird after each goal
5–And we blow them out in their OWN STADIUM
6–AMERICA IS BACK
Congratulations @usahockey on a huge win! pic.twitter.com/75qmJeE5WU
In the UK, a funeral company says they can now bury you in the ‘world’s first living coffin’, which is made out of mushrooms. Containing no wood, the coffins are formed out of a mat of fibers including pliable mycelium—the root structure of mushrooms—and up-cycled hemp plants. The thread-like mycelium, aids decomposition by breaking down biological matter—and it biodegrades within 45 days. Made by Dutch company Loop Biotech, the coffins can be grown in just a week and the eco-friendly burials “feed the earth” as they mix with nutrients from the human decomposition.

100% accurate...
Gen X loves DJT.
Such a versatile word.
This was mentioned in the comments to a recent thread. Better than a Big Wheel!
Born on this day in 1990: Canadian singer-songwriter and record producer The Weeknd, (Abel Makkonen Tesfaye).
Born on this day in 1961: Andy Taylor, guitarist with Duran Duran.
Born on this day in 1935: American singer-songwriter, producer, actor, and politician Sonny Bono.
Tonight's ONT brought to you by tough questions.

Yes she does and I'm getting bugged with X and the lack of follow up. I was going to post a dumb cop vid here tonight but impulse caused me to dig. Come to find out it was three years ago. Time stamp indicated 3hr but that's actually how long it had been up at the site.
To the subject, It gives no indication or link to who she is or what she was playing. People are getting paid for clicks and GAS less and less for provenance.

I can't look at it without worrying that the tree's roots will damage the foundation of the house.
At my old house, there was a huge oak tree that was too close to it. Cost me a buttload of money to have that tree removed.

Add a minus sign to it and you've got our lows for this week. It finally snowed and it's too cold for Pookette to enjoy it. Right before the cold snap, though, she and her friend from across the street played in it for an afternoon.

Dan Senor interviewed Benny Gantz. I won't go into the details of the actual 90 minute interview. If interested, it's on YouTube. Anybody else (besides me) NOT know that Gantz worked for a year as a commercial fisherman in AK?
What I wanted to comment on was this: Senor was well-prepared. Always polite & professional. And all of his questions were designed to elicit real information from Gantz. The home audience never got a WHIFF of Senor's own political views.
The interview was a throwback in that respect to the days of Lawrence Spivak and John Cameron Swayze.

Supposedly he upgraded the electrical and re-wired his home, and it passed code inspection. He demanded to do things around the house despite his blindness. His wife Rosalie was not a fan of this notion, and didn’t want him on the roof replacing shingles or re-orienting the TV antenna

I'm so old my first vote was for Ford in 1976. Amongst our college group watching the election we voted something like Ford 9-1. And we were in college in IL, finally being influenced by the hippie mindset.
Ford would have been better than Carter and we might not have had the fall of the Shah and subsequent results, like 9/11 really if you think about it.

There's another eco option, and that's donating your body to one of these (or maybe there's only one) outdoor corpse decomposition labs. They just throw your dead body under a tree or onto a pile of rocks and come around and observe the decay at regular intervals.
That or donating it to a medical school to be cut up by wisecracking, irreverent students is my plan.

Culling Poultry is an Ineffective and Costly Biosecurity Measure
Mallard ducks continually reinfect farms with mild H5N1 bird flu. Paying farmers to kill healthy flocks is driving up price of eggs, creating egg shortages. Agriculture policy should shift to allow natural immunity, increase the egg supply, and quell the outbreak.

Generation as in "how old were your parents when they had you?" is one thing.
Generation as in "everyone born between Year A and Year B is a member of Generation C" is something else.
They don't have much to do with each other. Since the Boomers got 20 years, a lot of early boomers had late-boomer kids.
"Generations" since then have been about 15 years.
Baby Boom = about 1945 to 1965
X = about 1965 to 1980
Y/Millennial = about 1980 to 1995
Z/Post-millennial = about 1995 to 2010
Alpha = about 2010 to 2025?
Beta = incoming
It's about time to give Alpha a real name. "Generation Covid," so we never forget?

Wait! You're saying Boomers were more chaste than other generations? Waited longer, I don't think so, lol.
Seriously it is just a long tradtion that a generation is 20 yrs. And is really an estimate on the short side. If you dig into your history the average is much older I've found.
Posted by: Farmer at February 16, 2025 11:45 PM (55Qr6)
I would propose splitting Boomers into Boomers I ('46 - ~55) and Boomers II (~55 - 64), because speaking as a Boomer II, we suffered from all the fallout from the older boomers stupidity. From dumbed-down high school curricula and 'double-sessions' (half the school went in the morning, the other half went at night) ridiculous housing prices (thanks Prop 13 in Calif), hardly any jobs or career advancement because there was always a more experienced boomer ahead of you, we caught the worst of the boomers selfish 'I got mine' mentality.
I would bet the senior citizen support for Trump diverges along Boomer I and Boomer II lines, with Boomer II's being the far more conservative bunch.

Middle boomer 1955? Boomer from '64??? I thought I was a late boomer from 1952. I suppose my younger sister would still be a boomer from 1958. Barely. The post-WW2 baby boom is the only generation that has statistical significance.

Eventually Brian got around to asking the female guests if they wouldn't date a guy below a certain income and Ms Socialist opined she would not date anyone making below $80k. Note that would put you in the top 40% or so of earners, and of course since earnings weight older very few men her age would earn that much.
He gave her a shocked look and Ms Socialist opined "I can't fix the system but I'm not dating a loser"

An important point. My parents were quite unconventional even by today's standards. Mom was two years older than Dad. They married in 1955 when they were in their late 30's. Mom was 40 when she had me. Dad fought in WWII, a lot of my friend's dads were barely even school age in WWII.
So I had 'old' parents compared to many of my peers which gave me a different perspective on many things.

Strauss and Howe's generation archetypes are interesting, and if you're aren't familiar with them, give it read. There's some curve-fitting and shoe horning going on there, but it's interesting.
According to their theories, we have a cycle that takes 4 generations. It's sort of the children rebel against the parents, but that cycle takes 4 generations.
The boomers are what they call the "prophet" generation, and GenX is the "nomad" generation.
In the last cycle, the Nomads were called the Lost Generation. Eisenhower and Patton were Nomads.
Elon Musk is Gen X.

Canada-USA sure don't like each other. 3 distinct fights, at 2 seconds, 3 seconds and 9 seconds. That brought a tear to my eye. That was the 1980s hockey I saw at the Garden and love. Real rivalries out for blood. Rangers vs Isles/Flyers/Bruins/Canadians. Those Islander-Ranger games were lit, even pre-season ones. (That was when the Isles were winning their 4 Cups.) I've seen the goalies go at it numerous times. I saw one preseaon Flyers game where each team only had about 7 players left on the bench there were so many fights/game miscondiucts. That game last night, though I only saw the highlights, was a bone-cruncher. Old school hockey.

Having a grasp of LBJ is to understand how political and presidential power can be used. He was a master of that for sure and a complete son of a bitch. I highly recommend Robert Caro's soon to be five volume biography of LBJ.
Relevant to today is one idea he had is that power is where power goes. Today at the Daytona 500 with Trump flying over the racetrack and then that lap in the Beast reminds me of one LBJ campaign where he used a helicopter and a megaphone over small Texas towns. Genius stuff. That whole political theater exemplifies power is where power goes as does Trump projecting his political power indirectly by having JD give that speech in Munich that completely scrambled the entire established European order.
Felonious D. 2.0 understands power like nobody I've witnessed since LBJ.

In that Fourth Turning theory, the Boomers are of the "Prophet" generation archetype. During the last cycle, of which the Depression/WWII was the Crisis, the previous prophet generation was dubbed the Missionary generation. FDR (and the elders during WWII mostly) were of that generation.
All the archetypes have their pluses and minuses, with common themes of such running throughout.
The hippies and beatnik types were the prophets in their youth. They reject the existing system, and go off in some spiritual direction. The previous ones were more explicitly religious, while this last one was well, it had religious character, just not explicitly religious and even rejecting of traditional religion and all that.

This is pretty accurate. Every generation of so-called liberals since then has gone further and further left until we are where we are today which ideologically is pretty indistinguishable from the Bolsheviks in the 1930s and is a light year or two away from Freedom Riding for civil rights well, at the same time not being afraid to let the KKK have a march.
Reading Prairie Fire, the Weather Underground's manifesto is worthwhile reading and enlightening about what's happening with the left today.

Donald John Trump, born in June of 1946, is a Boomer I, indeed one of the oldest Boomers.
The term "Grey Champion" is used for the leader during a Crisis, and that comes from this from Nathaniel Hawthorne:
"Who is this gray patriarch? His hour is one of darkness, and adversity, and peril. That stately form, combining the leader and the saint…could only belong to some old champion of the righteous cause, whom the oppressor’s drum had summoned from his grave."

The Bolshies sucked, but they would have shot our leftists. At least they had a halfway reasonable ideal of the people who do the hard work in society benefitting more fully from their labor.
Their methods and results were awful, but the Bolsheviks would have been disgusted by our commies who valorize sloth and criminal behavior, fetishize LGBTQ, emphasize race/ethnicity/sex/gender over class, and look down on coal miners, farmers, and factory workers.
The modern left love billionaires like Taylor Swift and hate anyone who works for a living.

But on the rear third, trunk and fenders, the metallic gray paint had turned into a fine grayish powder. The rest was dirty, but okay. Though this was a hot day, there was still some snow (!) on the rear bumper and the taillights, which I brushed away, and found that part of the bumper was gone. Getting into the car, I found for the first time that the steering wheel was *retractable* -- when you turned the key, the post emerged from the dash, and then it sprouted the horn and wheel.
Then I was driving down a busy state highway. Steam began to plume from a vent on the hood (which the real car didn't have) and a "tow truck" light blinked on the instruments. I pulled over into a wrecking yard, got out and lifted the hood to let the steam vent, and walked in to ask for some water. The guy grinned evilly at me. "Yeah, we got a hose." And then I woke up.

Ahem. BC Alum here. Although Boston College's address is on Commonwealth Avenue in Chestnut Hill, an unincorporated village/suburb that straddles Newton and Brighton, on the Newton side), the main campus actually is partially in Boston city limits (and significantly so: i.e. the whole lower part of the main campus is in Boston, it includes the stadium, the field hose and several major dorms, and there is the Brighton Campus (the old catholic seminary). When the college was founded in 1863, it was located on the South End of Boston, so it was very much inside city limits. It moved to the current Chestnut Hill site sometime after 1907. In a bit of randomness, the President of Boston College, Father John Leahy, SJ will be in Singapore and we are having a local dinner for him with BC Alumni, this week!

Well, I wouldn't exactly call this one a nightmare. Though I loved the big 420SEL and would have hated to see it decline like that. And I was afraid I'd damage the engine if I kept driving without coolant, just as in real life.
That big car and I drove all over Denver and a good part of eastern CO until I left in late '01, and it brought me down to Da Swamp when I came back. And while the streets here were not kind to it, I continued with it until its totalling at 198K miles. I still miss it. In late '19 I spotted a similar one for sale in Michigan, in an *indoor* classic car shop, and you could tell it had been cared for, no corrosion. I thought of flying up, having it checked out, buying it, and driving it back down here to be a second car. Then I got what I think was the Coof and when I looked again, the car'd been sold. Darn.
