Red Sprites at Night Cafe

Red sprites over Western Australia by JJ Rao

It's like night and day.

Someone made a nice little hang-out for this squirrel.

When you're such a mensch that you'll even splash through a flood to save a raccoon.

Piebald (?) horse has riz.

Bro's ears are so big he can hear the future. (This is probably AI.)

Dog is made of speed atoms.

It takes this raven a little doing, but eventually she works the problem.

The white ghost elephant has two trunks.

Dude is just "wrassling his wombat," if you catch my drift.

Baby whale is a real scamp.

Mama tortoise is proud of her baby.

Rolling up to an animal shelter and telling them "I'll take whatever poor creature's been here the longest."

When your fighting cocks start their own dog-fighting ring. "I learned it from you, dad!"

This story starts off sad and anger-making, but it ends well.

8 The often repeated phrase, there is no end to ricing your linux, is a true maxim.

I just spent the last couple of hours setting up figlet an lolcat to randomly select a phrase from a phrase txt file and random font to display every time a terminal is open, the phrases are well known movie and tv phrases.

I have now put together another list of bible verses, I will now spend the next several hours trying to create a method of taking the movie phrases and bible phrases and mashing them up.

The hardest part is how to parse each phrase and put them together so they make sense and aren't either gibberish or simply a non-contextual concatenation.

12 The following statement appeared in the comments section of a previous post:

NO AI is used in the production or distribution of Penguin Facts.

This statement is true. Communist front organizations typically insist that their agents write their own copy, which is then reviewed by a handler. In this way, the party maintains strict control over the narrative. As pointed out previously, agents of Penguin Facts first type out their comments on vintage Woodstock typewriters (in homage to Alger Hiss), then their handlers, after carefully reviewing the text, post the comments online.

I make what we call 'PA German Stuffing' - but it's not. It's mashed potatoes mixed with cooked bacon, butter, sausage, celery, butter, onion, a few bread crumbs, butter, a bit of garlic, butter, and then place in a baking dish and bake at 325 for 30-40 minutes or so. Oh yeah, top with more pat of butter.

65 lMy day. Frantically fixing code this morning. I thought I had it working but there was a bug and it was spamming about 15 people every hour. Finally I got it working correctly. Did some other things, and was dragging and I made the mistake of waiting until shortly after 3:30pm to finish up a couple of other things. Of course everyone had quit early. For the day before T-day its actually good that they were around till a bit after 3. Sometimes on thursday afternoons earlier than that I have merge or other requests and they will sit until Friday morning. With luck the person that has to do the 15 minute ops check this evening will do my merges. Life is simpler when the system is a bit out of whack and we can do our own merges.

I'm invited to neighbors and "you don't have to bring anything". I'm not a horrible cook but its been a busy work week so I'm glad they issued the invite that way and I just bought some K-cups to bring for a hostess gift.

87 Another billion-dollar boondoggle is sinking beneath the waves.

The 'low risk' Constellation class of next gen FFGs has been cancelled because the US Navy has not learned from the Zumwalt class or the two LCS classes. Delivery date of the lead ship has slipped from 2026 to 2029 as the Navy kept on adding requirements.

As a result, there will only be two Constellation class ships - USS Constellation and USS Congress. Both built in Wisconsin. The other four ships of the initial flight have been cancelled before keel laying.

From law-enforcement source:

Afghan National, born in 1996, armed with a revolver ambushed a female guardsman, shooting her in the head, and a male guardsman, shot multiple times. They never saw it coming. Both guardsmen were armed.

A Major in the National Guard, who was unarmed and doing his spot checks of the guardsmen was in the block, heard the shots and turned to see the shooter who spotted him. He took cover behind a truck.

The suspect came for the Major who pulled out his pocket knife, and bravely took on the suspect who was reloading his revolver.

The Major began stabbing the suspect in the head.

Another guardsman in the area who was armed, them drew his pistol and shot the suspect twice, once in the leg and once in the buttocks.

The Major stated that when the suspect began shooting he heard him shout, Allahu akbar!”

I just briefed [omitted].

Now, you know too.

There’s more: we trying to confirm if the suspect, an Afghan national was an interpreter brought over by Biden, because he has a Department of Defense record. Again, we are trying to confirm.

The suspect has a home address in Washington State.

104 Sometimes we would do our T-day meal on Friday-Sunday instead of Thursday. Always traditional, no trying new twists. Turkey, dressing, mashed taters and gravy, usually a baked squash and green beans and a relish tray with the cranberry sauce etc and pie and or pumpkin custard for dessert.

One year after my mom had died it was just dad and me and I was going to cook on Thursday but when I started to get ready I had forgotten to buy celery. Cant have that meal without the sage dressing with celery and onions so it got punted for a couple of days.

105 >>Yeah, looks like this guy popped in to the US illegally in 2021. So, you know all those experts that used the tired phrase "When, not if." Well, they were correct.

Fox is reporting that he was allowed in by Biden as part of an operation in 2021 to bring in Afghanis who worked with us during the war. But there was no real vetting, the allowed in pretty much anyone who asked.

And then this asshole overstayed his visa. There were tens if not hundreds of thousands of Afghanis allowed in. This is going to get worse before it gets better because leftists are doubling down on their rhetoric, everyone who opposes them is a Nazi fascist.

151 Constellation-class cruiser is the latest mega-debacle of NAVSEA (section of Navy that designs/builds ships). Adding to the Zumwalt and LCS debacles Anna mentioned. Even better, this was a "low risk" design approach, starting with an existing European design and messing it up, er, "adapting" it to US needs. And apparently many of the personnel involved in the earlier disasters are involved in this one.

Afghanistan is just a small piece. Biden allowed in millions from all over the world. I remember seeing a report on the number of unaccompanied military age men that were flooding in from China. Nobody leaves China without permission. How would we know how many came in from jihad countries other than Afghanistan?

Instead, the 29-year-old stayed here illegally, then apparently hatched a plan to kill American troops."

Not dealing with Iran
Not dealing with Hezbollah after the Marine bombing
Sandra Day O'Connor
Not ending affirmative action (see Sandra Day O'Connor)

Yea, that's bullshit. Tucker is now saying Netanyahu is no better than Hitler and Israel is a criminal state while his company is being paid by Qatar.

And Fuentes is and always has been a smooth brain grifter who said he was going to work to elect Harris because he hated Trump. They fucking nuts.

Not quite correct. I'm critical of Reagan, but also fully aware of his manifest talents and accomplishments in a different American era. Setting us up to collapse the Soviet Union without a shot being fired in active war was an enormous accomplishment. At least 30% of the world's population was freed of Communist tyranny and influence. That's no small feat and deserves a place on Rushmore by itself. Sticking with Volcker when the Rs got shellacked in '82 was a feat of intestinal fortitude that set us up for 40 years of economic gains. That deserves another place at Rushmore.

His misses were big, but his hits were much bigger, on the whole.

It is also an opinion he has backed up by explaining his reasoning. It is something you can disagree with, but calling someone an anti-semite is not an argument.
Arguing, for example, that he is doing the only thing possible in the situation IS an argument. However that argument would require an analysis of WHY that is a valid tactic requires more typing than "rasiss" so.

Tucker Carlson has laid out why he objects to it. You are not required to agree with his argument any more than Scogg's.

Tucker challenges the neo-con argument for foreign involvement, and that argument is central to much of how the US government is organized. Once again, you are not required to agree, but calling him an anti-semite for his position is not an effective argument, any more that the local fundamentalist church condemning card playing is an effective manner to encourage moral behavior

It's not difficult. They are a functioning democracy, the only one, in a region full of religious, tyrannical and murderous psychopaths that despise us as much as they do Jews and Israel. For all of your whining about Israel I've never heard you say a word about all of the money we give Egypt. Because in both instances it's we pay to have them do shit or we do it ourselves.

And why do you never mention what we get for the money we give Israel? Most of it comes back to us for weapons purchases and in exchange we get missile and medical technology and much more. Why don't you ever mention any of that?

Israel isn't perfect. Obviously, the US isn't. None of us are. But pretending our relationship with Israel isn't a net positive for the US is dumb.

Or we could just let the jihadis continue to spread and attack more Americans like they did today.

Israel is our "unsinkable aircraft carrier" that dominates the Midde East, that is its value.
The question Tucker has is if that is a valid use of a country, or if it is a proper thing to do, his stated position is that it is not.

By the way, I have friends who think it is not only proper to do such things, but they should bomb more. They served there, you see, and they hold a grudge

to displace, I don't disagree with your position, I disagree with silencing argument. Part of this is because of my feeling that argument is essential, but even more because it is a terrible tactic.

Bill Buckley silenced argument from his position at the head of Conservative Inc, and turned a major strain of political thought in the US into a country club for people who agreed with him. He should not have had that power, and it made Conservatism into a voice crying in the dark.
