Daylight saving time begins on Sunday, March 9, and that means for the majority of the United States, the clocks will spring forward one hour. Losing an hour can really mess with your sleep. It can take days for your body to adjust to darker mornings, and the shift to more light in the evening can leave your circadian rhythm out of sync, reports NPR's Allison Aubrey.
Was he on Gilligan's Island? Genius Award Winner.
Man nearly neck-deep in mud rescued along Mt. Vernon Trail Police and firefighters rescued a man precariously stuck in the mud near Roosevelt Island this morning. Initial reports suggest that a man in his 70s became stuck in the mud while trying to retrieve a walking stick between the Mount Vernon Trail and the Potomac River. Per scanner traffic, he sank in the mud until he was nearly neck-deep, prompting a large rescue response.

Morgan Geyser, the infamous "Slender Man" stabber who was sentenced to 40 years in a mental hospital, is set to be released by a judge after only serving 10 years.
Morgan is reportedly now identifying as a "transgender male" named Ethan, is using a chest binder, and told staff to use male pronouns.
This trans criminal is about to be on the streets again.

As I lay here unable to sleep I realize this administration is liable for all mental health diagnoses and lives lost during this time. As of yesterday I’m pretty sure I now have a full blown stomach ulcer. At work I could barely function, and was fully disassociating. My meds have been doubled but the face-numbing anxiety and c-PTSD symptoms are returning after the years of talk therapy and EMDR I did to heal.
All I wanted to do was my job. When I look in the mirror I have aged so much since all this shit began. I fear I’ve stayed on this ship for too long and am going down with it. If I get spat out on the other side, I doubt there will be any jobs left in the private sector, since we know the market is already flooded. I have nothing profound to say, just that I’m sure this stress has cut years off all our lives.

You boyos spent the last three decades playing Game of Thrones with hundreds of thousands of human lives and the fates of entire countries. And that's just externally. Never mind all the domestic shit.
Fedboy, do you know what it's like to look at the flaming shit trashfire that is the Middle East today and you always remember, "Yep, I was there. I helped them do that."
This is why you don't abuse your position, your power, and treat others like shit and like they don't matter. Because the wheel will eventually turn, and all those people you shat on, that you chewed up and spit out, they have friends, they have family, they have communities, and they remember. And they'll light cigars and lean against the fence and silently smoke and watch you thrash around, while you sink into the quicksand.

Sunni Moslem agents of the new government are busily killing Christians and Alawites.
They'd be busy killing the Druze too, except that Israel has extended protection to the Druze areas near the Golan Heights.

Glenn Beck did a spot on what's going on there. Assad was a piece of excrement, BUT he protected religious freedom to some extent. However, as he is gone, the Muslims are going about their usual business of disposing of Syrian Christians or any of the other religions not their own. I think I read that without a couple of months Christians went from about 12% of the population to less than 2%. And, it's not because they left.

Whatever is, or is not, happening in the diplomatic sphere, the fighting goes on.
1. It looks like the Kursk salient in the northeast, which the Ukrainians poured an incredible amount of men and equipment into for unclear reasons, is finally starting to collapse.
2. In the eastern sector, the Ukrainians have conducted several counter attacks, apparently hoping to break up upcoming Russian offensives. They have been temporarily successful, however the territory regained can be measured in city blocks.
3. Elsewhere, the Russians continue to grind forward.

Sweetie, there have been plenty of RIFs throughout the years, and personnel changes with the change of administrations Fed employees work at the "pleasure of the president." Granted, career fed jobs are more secure than appointees, but no job is guaranteed for life. If you are so weak that the thought of the current administration is giving you palpitations, you aren't cut out to serve the American people, because THEY are your actual boss, THEY pay your salary, and you are working to ensure THEIR interests are first and foremost in governmental decisions. Sadly, that dictum has been non-existent too long in the Fed government. It's time to bring it back.

I heard that some epidemiologists went to talk to egg-industry fold and pointed out that "free range chickens" are crammed together in open pens, they are now not given antibiotics because organic, and they are liable to disease from the overcrowding.
Also they noted that about 15% of the egg laying chicken population have been culled but eggs are up over 100% and maybe they should start asking about why that is and if it is gouging.

I work for a construction company, a very large one. Your options at this point are public pressure and lawfare, probably related to permits. Projects get delayed for years and killed because of permits.
I would also float the idea of getting everyone who's willing to scream at every elected official who's relevant in public forums about why Germans are being allowed to buy farmland out from under American farmers. Yes, it's their American subsidiary; leave that out.

Also, I thought that Quebec (which exports power to New York and New England) wasn't going along with this.
Pro tip: BC Hydro, the Alberta utilities, Manitoba Hydro, Ontario Hydro, and Hydro Quebec make tons of money selling power to the United States, and use that money to reduce electrical rates to their Canadian customers.
Cut off those export earnings, and electrical rates will rise sharply for Canadians.

The biggest solar farm here in MN runs under 6% rated capacity in December. Because the sun is low in the sky. And it's always cloudy. And the days are short. And it's not cost-effective to sweep the freakin' snow off 'em.
They do run at a scorching 30% of their rated capacity in July, though!

This was an issue in the last election.
Commercials whining about how farmers wanted to control their land and pass it along to their families bombarded the airwaves. It was a total scam. The proposal actually took local zoning for farms away and handed it to the State, so that the State could determined where solar farms could be built.
It pissed me off when I saw what they were doing, and now the effects if that fucking vote (it passed) are coming home to roost.

At this point, my only hope for the US to avoid becoming an ally to Russia is a violent resistance by our military. Tragic to say that because the military are trained to avoid any politically motivated intervention. Firing all the Joint Chief of Staff military leaders and replacing them with military acolytes of Trump anticipated that possibility and acted swiftly to minimize that type of intervention. Ultimately, we will get what we deserve by giving Trump a second chance to destroy our democracy.

A drive to get everyone vaccinated
A celebration that more people were vaccinated than ever
An explanation that so many people were getting sick because once again they chose the wrong strain to vaccinate again
and then lean into the next season by declaring the previous season so successful.
I finally decided the shots were more important than preventing the flu, and that meant what was in the shot was not important to the people pushing it.

mRNA was originally used as a cancer therapy, which was shut down because it killed all the test animals.
It also killed animal test subjects when they tried it for vaccines.
If you remember there was talk in 2020 that mRNA was toxic, but not bad for just the two small shots in muscle.
which is one of the reasons why I was going nuts when they started saying we needed boosters every 6 months.

Similar to my Granddad. Monster farm, depression young adult. After he died and we started going through the barns, one on them was stacked floor to loft with nothing but firewood. This was no small shed, it was, at one time a dairy barn. Apparently, he was cold during the depression and no way was he going to let that happen again.

Definitely something to be said for living within your means. Debt is a bitch. I have friends and family that are always in debt. Always have to have the latest and greatest, and yeah, the uber expensive vacations. The worst things we ever did was credit card dept, which usually happened when we did major work in the house, but it wasn't insane amounts because I always did the work, so really it was material costs. It usually got paid off in a year or 2 at the most, so it never was an issue. Yeah, I pissed away a kings ransom on music gear, guitars, amps, etc, over the last 3 decades, but I still have it. Its not like it went down some go-go dancer chicks G string and gone forever.

We have a hdepot card & have used it when major appliances crapped out or we wanted to build our barn.. using either the discount or no-interest payoff plans.
Sometimes, it's worth it.
We took 401k loans to pay off the house, rather than re-fi when interest rates went down. Saved a boatload on fees, plus 40k of interest due to early payoff. (Suck it, Chase Bank!) Plus! The 'interest' on 401k loans got paid TO US, by us, and wasn't much more monthly than our original house payment.

Looking back on it, yeah there was nothing like it. I wouldn't change a damn thing. I did it for decades, and then gradually, very gradually, slowed it down over the years, but from 1980 to the early 2000's I was practically in the army of the immortals. I only stopped when covid hit. A lot of bands fell apart during that. I miss it a lot, but I'm not done yet.

Ah, so you know then, lol. I'll tell you one thing, the different genres of music all seem to have different cultures. Metalheads were more like vikings, give a long house with booze and chicks and we'll make our own fun. The more mainstream a genre was the more weird the people were. I was at this one party, big fancy house down the shore. It was for a band of a different genre. There were candy dishes of coke in every room, and a hot tub and sauna. There was a room with white sheets laid out on the floor, and people were hitting the sauna, then sprinkling coke all over the sheets and then just rolled in it. It was nuts. Naked chicks rolling on white sheets. Better than mud wrestling. lol

There was never any happiness, it always ended..really... bad. You don't get out alive. One of the other guitar players in a band I was in years ago died just a couple years ago because he picked up bad habits again. He's lucky he survived the first time around. He didn't the second time. I gave him a lecture, and he was dead in a month anyway. Its like being the last dude to die in a war.

I'm drinking some weird scotch as we speak. It was a leftover from the christmas party that somebody brought. Its called pipers clan. Never heard of it. Could be cheap shit for all I know.

For you and ScaryMary, may I recommend Alexander Solzhenitsyn's "August 1914." It gives you a glimpse of how the Communists came to power. They were terrorists, murderers, bank robbers, blackmailers. The worst people you could imagine, financing their quest for political power through a series of unspeakable crimes.

Nobody has a nice history. 99% of "history" is military history.
I've always chalked that up to the fact that nobody thinks nice things are worth recording for posterity. If it bleeds it leads. Could also just be the innate warmonger-ness of Europeans who are the ones who decide what "doing history" looks like. Even Alfred's little book about England over 1000 years ago was pretty much an unbroken list of who was stoving whom's head in at any given moment.
Some countries are still far more miserable than others, though.

Yup, I was born there, but before the riots. My parents were from the area, but got out a few years before it went to shit. I would see pictures my parents had from when they were dating in the 1950's. Yeah, all gone. Its a cesspool.

All because of you white folks fleeing to the suburbs and leaving slums for us poor black folks to live in. You and them Greek homos stole all our technology and our brains. IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!!
