We Finally Know What a Dinosaur’s Butthole Looks Like
Now I finally have a clearer view, thanks to a fossil of a horned dinosaur called Psittacosaurus, described in a paper online earlier this month. These dinosaurs, which lived over 100 million years ago in what’s now northeastern China, were odd little creatures. While belonging to the same branch of the dinosaur family tree as Triceratops, these Labrador retriever–size dinos walked around on two legs and had beaks like those of parrots, cheeks that were each adorned with a flared horn, and, jutting from the tail, a spray of featherlike bristles. Now we also know that they had buttholes like those of crocodiles.
Fact: Crocodile Butthole was the worst favor of Four Loko
It really is Hope Hicks’ birthday today. She said all she wanted was dick pics and quote “only meaty ones.”
File Under: Cool story, bro. But the tard fight in the comments is entertaining in a “watching human history decay into maggots and shit” sort of way.

reporters have now viewed the emails, photos, and videos on the #HunterBiden hard drive. We can confirm: There appear to be not one but several images of a minor that justify immediate attention. We have reason to believe the minor is a US citizen.
And, finally, in an update to last week’s Cardi B mutilated nipple news, leaked photos of Cardi B’s butthole have appeared on the internet. She has a quite quotidian exit chute. I expected to at least be prolapsed or bedazzled.
I look so you don’t have to.

“these Labrador retriever–size dinos walked around on two legs and had beaks like those of parrots, cheeks that were each adorned with a flared horn, and, jutting from the tail, a spray of featherlike bristles”
Now you are just making shit up.
So, they danced for Madonna?
I think he is implying that Cardi B is a dinosaur…or that Dinosaurs had WAP…not sure which.

That a British reporter thinks the only two countries in the world are China and the U.S. is kind of funny. So much for that better knowledge of geography that Brits have.
What the Brit twit doesn’t grok is that China has a lot of things under control that America doesn’t, and that’s why America is a better place to live.
North Korea has had zero reported cases and zero reported deaths. She ought to move there, they have this virus deal under even better control than CHina.
I can see the twitter link. That’s probably for the best. Happy Hump Day, Sugga.

Mitt Romney is a shitstain.
Something tells me he didn’t even vote for himself.
He’s lying about 2016. He wrote himself in.
Fuckin Massachusets Carpet Bagger.
Mike Lee needs to beat the shit out of him.
*swoon*
He’s so dignified and his smarmy and calculated sense of ethical self importance makes me all tingly in my nether regions. Thank God Obama beat that fucker.
Did they ask if Mitt regrets his decision to vote yes on impeachment now that it turns out Trump was right and Biden was using his influence to enrich his crack head son?
Didn’t vote for him, but still asked him for a job when he won.
So principle. Much brave.
I guess Rudy CAN Lose.

1. The girl clearly does not look 15 and was pretending to be a reporter. Giuliani is stupid, but at his age I guess it’s best to take any risk for a chance at a fling with a hot piece of ass.
2. “He’s gone as far to claim, without evidence, that he’s in possession of raunchy photos and videos involving Hunter Biden and underage girls.” – The actual pictures themselves are of course not evidence.
I keep getting server not found errors. The Matrix has me, boys!
Guiliani is definitely stupid. No matter how old she looks, as soon as she says she’s 15 he’d better assume she is.
She didn’t claim to be 15. She presented herself as a foreign reporter of age, and then when they got him into the hotel room Cohen as Borat comes running out saying that’s his 15 year old daughter and that she’s too old for him.
He was engaging in perfectly legal sleaze.
As a goof I watched “Boo: a madea halloween” there is a scene when some feats boys find out some girls at the party are 17. They flee like their life depended on it. I chuckled and thought this was a great PSA.
I chuckled and thought this was a great PSA.
Although it would be a bit misleading, as 17 is perfectly legal most places. Still, better safe than sorry, of course.
I’ll go out on a limb here and say this will be bigger news than whatever is on Hunter Biden’s laptop.
Yep.
Just checked online — every mainstream news site is leading with ‘Giuliani inappropriate with young woman’
Zero mention of Hunter Biden or the laptop — if you dig really deep you can find a several day-old reference still attributing everything about the laptop to ‘Russian disinformation’
Also, many sites saying “Biden leading Trump polling in double digits”, no doubt hoping to discourage Trump voters from going to the polls
It would be more amusing if so many people I know weren’t so ignorant and could actually see what’s going on
every mainstream news site is leading with ‘Giuliani inappropriate with young woman’
Incredible. Another pol punked by Borat, and that’s the lead story?
TMITE.
The article that I read basically said that it was deceptively edited to look bad when he was really trying to get his mic wire out of his pants. I’ll not be watching the movie to find out. If he’s a creep, I hope he crawls back into whatever hole he was hiding in pre Trump
I don’t see how skewing the poll helps Biden. If Trump is down, then every Trump voter needs to show up.
Moreover, if Biden is up, then any given Biden voter doesn’t need to bother.
Does anyone remember “Mr Smith Goes To Washington” where they’ve doctored all kinds of conspiracy evidence against Jimmy Stewart’s Senator Smith, and he goes on an hours-long filibuster hoping the truth will come out while he talks? And any newspaper or radio that tries to support him is getting closed down by thugs? And then the boy scouts who support Mr. Smith decide to print their own newspaper with the truth on it, and they’re out delivering it with their red wagons, but the thugs even come and rough the little kids up?
I kind of feel like we’re in that scene right now with the Hunter Biden stuff. The regular media is absolutely determined not to let anything bad about Joe Biden to get a second of airtime. All we can hope for now is that Biden pulls a Claude Rains’ senator character from the movie, and falls down during the debate on Thursday, sobbing ‘it’s true, it’s true, everything he’s saying is true!”
Unfortunately that only works if you are the plucky, naive but honest, progressive politician. If you are the evil shitlord promoting
liberty and the free marketvirtual enslavement of the poor by forcing them to work for a living, your opponents know that even if their tacticswould make Heinrich Himmler gagare questionable, the goal of socialist utopia is worth the minor sacrifice of your honor.But he can’t fail.

Thank you.

Well, everyone acts like the “Pizzagate” thing is crazy talk, like a chemical cause male pair-bonding among tree frogs, but we know people who are pedophiles exist, and we know people who are rich and powerful exist, so why not the both?
I don’t know if they were talking about pedophilia in those emails, but they were talking in code. Which raises questions.
It was drugs.
I’m sorry, but you are going to be denounced as an evil conspiracy theorist. Our leaders are only the best people. Except the republicans.
Pizzagate probably is crazy talk. But you are right that there are some sickos out there and some are probably pretty high up. Heck Marc Dutroux seems to have had some help with his crimes albeit on a different continent. And this stuff would be a gold mine for intelligence agencies foreign and domestic.
I don’t think Pizzagate is a thing, but after the recent bout of alphabet agencies looking the other way pretty much everywhere; to claim it couldn’t happen is absurd.
So even 100M years ago China was asshole!?
How similar is Card B’s bunghole to the dinosaur variety?
94% of the DNA is the same, or something. So say the evolutionary biologists.
Deep structures were similar but I’m not a trained strippertologist.
It’s gonna take some strenuous analysis.
Did you happen to sleep at a Holiday Inn?
It’s good enough for me.
Based on the nipples, I don’t want to know.
Paleontologists are still perplexed by how dinosaurs mated with those big, thick tails in the way. Did they have to contort into difficult positions to align their butts, or did males have the necessary equipment to bridge the gap?
More than a few euphemisms in that article.
Because I had never Googled the slow, sensual mating rituals of crocodiles before. Truly gentle giants.
Huh. Alligators really go at it way harder. Where do you think the term “knocking boots” came from?
Can’t they just watch kangaroos screw to figure it out?
Duck-like corkscrew dicks.

Paleontologists may never be able to decode that mystery.

The True Believers In The Magic Of Masks will just blame folks like us that don’t wear masks.

Ah yes; If everyone goes full retard, we won’t wont look so retarded!
He’ll have a black bag thrown over his head shortly.
Masks would work if they were fused to our faces!
And no taking them off – ever.
Point missed. Which was that wearing masks in public, as per policy, appears to have failed.
If the reason is that you are more likely to catch it at home, you still have to admit that wearing masks in public has failed. You then have two options: demand that people wear masks even when at home, or call off the failed current policy.
^^^ The guy’s counter point is to completely conced the original argument. Masks in Public don’t work because they don’t target the most likely spread. Masks in private is unenforcable.
Or at least if they tried to enforce it i’d hope you’d see lightposts decorated with politicians
China says hold my beer while I bolt your door shut.
Mandating masks at home it is.
Our “betters” won’t admit they are wrong.
Do I even want to know how many people would read that and think “yup. We better extend the mask mandate to inside people’s homes too”?
Way too many, including just about everyone in a position of power.

I look forward to seeing how the MSM will squelch this new front in the Biden play for pay scandal.
Some reporters using access to the gmail account of the convicted business partner of Hunter Biden have made a pretty compelling case that Hunter and his pals sold access to Joe and other Obama administration officials. In addition to the email, they have visitor logs to the Whitehouse, stories by the Chinese themselves and other stuff. In a sane world, the Dems would be scrambling to figure out how to replace Biden on the ticket right now.
All the way back in 1996 the Democrats (the DNC and Clintons) were caught taking donations from the Chinese. Nothing else happened. Some people actually went to jail, though of course those not too big to fail.
The media ignoring shit like this is, sadly, nothing new.
Those crafty Russians! It is amazing that they were able to get a Chinese publication to print a story 9 years ago that would be used by their US assets to “prove” that Hunter was selling access.
I wonder what kind of shit storm we’d be seeing if this was Eric Trump’s e-mails and the Big Guy was you know who.

Hey, look over there! Is that Toobin whipping it out? Hey, buddy. Stop doing that!
This AM Lynx I was mildly freaking out about an increase in covid cases and deaths in Indiana, but in the governor’s press conference it sounds like that is mainly in nursing homes. He is sending emergency staffing and the national guard to help in long term facilities.
To enforce a true quarantine (things go in, nothing goes out), or to provide additional trained medical personnel?
They’ve promised the families the bullets will not appear on their bill.
Well, yeah, cause they can’t afford the ammo on top of the hospice bill. Least we could do.
Sounds like medical personnel to assist in testing and to enforce best practices, and focusing on stopping outbreaks.
That’s actually . . . not terrible.
I don’t think so either. In the same news conference, he says he’s trying to be more targeted and trying to avoid an across the board lockdown. Apparently the Libertarian challenger has gotten his attention.
“How to retweet using Twitter’s new temporary format
The changes will be in place until ‘at least’ the end of election week”
https://www.theverge.com/21524092/twitter-temporarily-changing-retweet-quote-tweet-election
How is that not election interference?
Election interference isn’t really a thing. Or if it is, it’s something everyone engages in and it’s actually a natural part of democracy. Even when it comes to foreign players. There are certain things like laws that restrict things.
But like everything Russia is accused of in 2016 outside their supposed hacking of Podesta and the DNC? That’s just legal shit done by foreigners. A Russian troll farm posting memes on social media is protected speech. And Twitter as a free company can engage in what ever biased bullshit it wants. It’s on voters to make up their own minds and people who whine of interference are basically saying that you can’t actually trust voters to sift through information.
I agree with this, and my only qualm is that Twitter the company should just drop the charade and say “we support Joe Biden” and Twitter the platform should stop pretending to be politically neutral. They have every right to exercise what bias and agenda they wish, the only responsibility they owe to anyone is a modicum of honesty about it.
That might be the one unforgivable sin that Twitter could commit in the eyes of their users.
How many twitter blue checks would be shocked (SHOCKED) to find out that the platform that they’ve been using is actually totally biased? I think a lot of their self-worth is built on the idea that Twitter is totes neutral and the reason the results seem to skew so far to the Left is because that is what the smart people think and those ideas will win out. It wouldn’t be healthy for them to discover that the reason they are winning is because the Boss rigged the game for them.
And, although this will require statutory reform, Twitter and Facebook should be treated like publishers, not platforms, if they are going to act like publishers, not platforms, by determining what will or will not appear on their site based on editorial standards. They are clearly not platforms as envisioned when the CDA was passed. They exercise far too much control over content, and not on narrow grounds (legality, copyright issues, that kind of thing). They have a special immunity, but they aren’t doing what got them that immunity. Take it away, unless they truly start operating as open platforms again.
Their choice. If they think exercising editorial control will be more profitable even with exposure for defamation, go for it. Otherwise, stop pretending to be an open platform while controlling the content you “publish”.
Well, by that standard, this here website is a “publisher” who should apparently bear liability for all potentially defamatory content posted here. I don’t understand why Twitter and Facebook have to be singled out while Democratic Underground or InstaPundit or any of a thousand other websites get to curate and moderate content according to bias and agenda while remaining immune to liability for user-generated content.
They should be held liable for their own statements and the contradiction between those statements and their actions, but not more.
Thissssssss
I’m more worried about any “fixes” to the law to bring Facebook and Twitter to heel than I am about their outsized influence.
It is frustrating to see jerks control so much of the communication market, but I’m pretty sure any reforms would pretty much leave them alone and instead be used against other platforms that allow wrongthink to happen.
In other words, FB and Twitter could afford to pay off the pols and regulators, but Glibs would be shut down after the first installment of Joe-Mala.
You and kbo make excellent points. Still, its frustrating to see a legal privilege (immunity from liability) abused the way it is.
Never mind that 230 was initially meant for hosts and ISPs and not these managed platforms.
just leave the composer blank and hit the retweet button to retweet like you normally would.
OMG, those fucking bastards!!! I have to leave something blank and then hit a button I use to only have to hit a button, no leaving things blank involved. That’s it you guys are right, these big tech companies have far too much power, burn them down!!! Leave something blank and then hit retweet?!? mother fuckers!!!!

So with all of this #MeToobin and the possible pedophilia within the Hunter Biden stuff, I was thinking about some of the comments I’ve seen, and what David Smith talked about in his podcast yesterday, of normalizing what would have been seen as sexually deviant in the not-so-distant past. It got me thinking of Brave New World and Huxley’s hypothesis that what people love would ruin them (read: us) as a people. It is telling that heads aren’t rolling. If as everything is revealed there isn’t outrage, I might need to take some Soma, because Huxley was right.
When you replace the eventual reward or punishment of Heaven and Hell with earthly rewards and punishments a lot of people are going to crawl into the slime. Everybody needs to start going back to church.
I’m religious and agree, but I can also see why people would be areligious or have other belief systems. I have a hard time getting how people can have such a flimsy moral code that they would toss everything aside so wantonly.
Oh wait, I get it: Principals, not principles.
^^^
I hate when people classify sex/attraction with a 15 year old as pedophilia.
It’s illegal but if they look like a woman and not a child there should be a different word.
There is
I concede that one to you. Development and “maturity” occur at different ages in different people. There could be a better classification or term, I was just going with the commonly used one.
Also, I have never seen Borat and don’t see the appeal of Cohen-Baron and his schtick.
in a different context, 15 would be considered young adults. doesn’t make it any less creepy when 40 year olds creep on them.
that said, you’re right that it’s a completely different situation when they’re 8 than when theyre 15.

Hey hi Glibs,
Haven’t been here in a while now that I’m retired, so it’s not like I’m in the office everyday with tons of free time.
I have a question. I have a Dell laptop that I bought about six years ago. Works fine, but the battery stopped charging, eventually dropping down to 7%. Picked up a new battery yesterday and slapped it in. My laptop said it was charged to 57% and plugged in. Great, thinks I. Today, it says the exact same thing. I thought a new battery would correct things, but it didn’t.
So my question: is there a charger built into my laptop and if so, is it something that can easily be replaced or is the new battery faulty? As big as the battery is, I figured that the charger would have been part of it. Please advise.
– EAP
PS After working 70 hours a week for years and years, retirement is wonderfully stress-free and provides ample time to make things like shrimp & grits and chicken & sausage filé ‘ gumbo.
May I suggest abandoning it, unencrypted and full of, ahem, personal information, in a computer repair shop?
You mean the shop run by Russian spies?
Do you have Dell Power Manager installed? If so open it and change power settings to standard.
A general troubleshooting guide. Depending on what type of Dell you have have a faulty board inside your laptop. Maybe look up the parts for your particular model here and see if it lists a board that has something to do with power.
Glad to hear that retirement is going well. Since you have all this free time, you will have to show up (if not host) the next Minnesoda Glibs meetup.
Good to see ya, EAP.

Hola Gliberinos.
Been thinking about my yard stuff some more given the “mostly dry” weather we’ve been having recently where my yard is still too soggy in many spots to actually mow or even walk through.
Made a rough sketch here (hope I’m not doxing myself with the link).
Basically, I think in the next couple of years, I could realistically dig a French drain – going the “long way” due to my fence – but I need to raise the level of the yard ALL the way around.
So I’m thinking about retaining wall stones along the base of the fence and adding dirt in all the areas that I marked as “soggy” and then reseeding with grass in the spring – and then in a year or so, it might be more realistic to dig a retaining wall. It’s particularly frustrating that the ground by my gate is one of the soggiest/muddiest areas – slopes down from the house, but my neighbor also has a very soggy lawn on their side of the fence there. (which is also where I’m thinking about dropping stepping stones – at least in the short term before I figure out something more professional/permanent.
With this image, does it appear that adding dirt first might be a decent short term fix until I can dig out the ditch (or the city does it) and put in a decent french drain – given the grade requirements for adequate drainage?
Turn off any sprinklers. Plant fast growing water tolerant trees. Sand, then gravel, then stones.
I have no sprinklers – it’s all just soggy from rain (we live along the potomac so lots of fog/condensation/etc all year – with the occasional dry summer month). I do want some shade trees in the back yard – if some trees in the middle would work to siphon off water from the edges….that might be an alternate solution.
The neighbor on the side of the fence where I have no gate – has retaining stones along their yard and the level is a little higher there – and i might be getting drainage from them – not sure. The neighbor along the back seems to be on the same level as me, but about the same right by the fenceline.
Dunno what trees would work that far north, but my permaswamp area has sycamores, river birch, and bald cypresses planted to eventually soak it up.
Willows grow super fast in the wet, if you don’t mind a constant rain of debris and them starting to die in 15-20 years. I’d steer clear of those if big limbs crashing down would be a problem.
I’m in Jersey and river birch does fine here. They soak up a lot of water, as you can guess from the name.
Ok…not dig a “retaining wall” – dig a “french drain” once the overall level is high enough to allow a draining grade to the ditch – such as it is.
Experts say it may even be the most important election since the formation of the universe over 6,000 years ago!

We Finally Know What a Dinosaur’s Butthole Looks Like
Does STEVE SMITH care to comment on this story?
I would hope that STEVE SMITH at least keeps his affections inside the mammalian family. Banging dinosaurs (which are reptiles if I remember my Memphis State learning correctly) is something I don’t think even STEVE SMITH is cold blooded enough to do.

You have to go way, way, waaaaay back to find a common ancestor of dinosaurs and reptiles. So far back, in fact, that one more clade is the common ancestor of reptiles and mammals.

Results of homemade bacon using a hot smoke. First slab that was salt cured is a tad on the salty side but not overwhelming. Crisps up nicely and I was able to hand slice some goodness. I give it a 7 out of 10.
Yhe other slabs were just smoke cured after brining/marinating the pork belly for a few days in the icebox. I used a receipe from online. 8/10 and probably the recipe I will use as a base from here on out.
Next goal is to build a cold smoker if I have time or money.
Now where are my oreos so I can wrap them up.
You can build a cold smoker out of a hotplate and a cardboard box, barrel, etc.
Yeah been looking up stuff. Might want a nice little smokehouse though. There is a british guy who builds random stuff and his videos are fun to watch
Alton Brown’s flower pot smoker, perhaps?
Nice. I’ve done both hot and cold smoke. The texture is slightly finer with the cold smoked but I thoroughly enjoy the hot smoke too.
I don’t what recipe you’re using, but I do a 14 day dry cure followed by four days of drying after rinsing before smoking.
Ill do that next time.
Just an example.

Cleveland has extended the sidewalk seating until June of next year, and are planning on extending it until November 2021

Similar here in Boston-ish – they’ve graciously allowed outdoor dining through the winter. That’ll work just great here…
Same here in NYC. It’s obvious that the lockdowns are never going away. Not sure what happens next year when all those jobs are gone for good.

Meh, more people are cutting cable and going streaming only It’s only a matter of time until ‘broadcast” is just a memory, also they are offering it free to non subscribers for a limited few days right around the holiday, same with the Peanuts Thanksgiving special. Arguably it is more widely available and more assessable now than when it was only shown a handful of times on network TV, watch when you want, however many times you want, etc…..
Which streaming service is best for ornery curmudgeons with a penchant for playing devil’s advocate?
Not being an ornery curmudgeon I don’t know, maybe ask the person saying “They aren’t doing it the way it’s always been done consarn it!”
Exactly
One of my colleagues says I’m the only true curmudgeon she knows
“Not being an ornery curmudgeon I don’t know…”
3 words- Garlic. Dill. Pickle.
It being broadcast once a year made it special. It’s like when Rocky Horror was first on TV. It lost all sense of occasion.
So there.
Without the ritual (which isn’t as much fun when you know you’ll have to clean up your own house,) you figure out it isn’t that good a movie.
What’s a Charlie Brown?
/millennials
Pretty sure the hipsters are into it. Just like they’re into shag rugs.
If you haven’t seen it, just look up Linus’ speech from It’s Christmas Charlie Brown. Then be shocked that was on broadcast television for decades.
I own the whole holiday set on Blu Ray. I’m properly shitlording by exposing the next generation to it.
This. I’m a Peanuts fan as it is, so my kids are very familiar with “old Chuck.”
On our living room wall is a framed drawing by Charles Schulz of Charlie Brown and Snoopy making a generic joke quote about my father-in-law. Apparently these were given out at some promotional cocktail party at the ad agency FIL worked at in the late 50s, where they paid for Schulz to be the guest and do these little cartoons for the execs present. It’s actually kind of cool, seeing the FIL’s name in that recognizable Schulz lettering, although I’m sure Schulz probably hated every second of it — but in the days before the first Charlie Brown Xmas special, the extra cash was probably pretty sweet for a guy only getting compensated for a syndicated comic strip.
That is awesome. One day, when I have all the money in the world (or my own printing press, whichever comes first) I would like to get into collecting Peanuts comics and art.
Charles Schulz: best timing ever on a celebrity death? Discuss.
I met Chuck Jones at a Santa Fe art gallery shortly before his death. He was drawing custom cels for folks but seems like they were super expensive so I didn’t get one. Nice guy and very funny.
/recalibrates sarcasm meter
Dude he even signed it /millennials
I have my Blu-Ray copy of the original and only true dramatization of “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” which you can take when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.
Not to mention, who doesn’t want to sit on a sidewalk during a Cleveland winter?
Is Carhart a publicly traded company? There might be an increased demand for insulated coveralls.
I just spent about three hours replacing a headlamp bulb in my dad’s Cadillac CTS. You have to partially disassemble the front of the car to get to the stupid thing. I dread to think what the dealer charges to do it.
At least it’s not one of those infernal LED nightmares.

Who wants to give me odds: Some combination of PC repair guy, Guiliani, or NY Post get charged with possession/distribution of child pornography AND nothing happens to the Bidens.
PC repair guy could get the “charge”. Anyone else and it will be touted “…in an official investigation…” in the media, just so DOJ can throw their weight around.
If he’s charged, the PC repair business is done in this country.
Ima say, no.
Because charging anybody just confirms and highlights, again, that ol’ Hunter had child porn on his computer. Plus, Giuliani and PC guy both turned it over to law enforcement. Keeping a copy is bad form, but I don’t see even the stupidest Soros DA as wanting to make a criminal case out of this, because I don’t see how you charge anybody but Hunter for this, without making it impossible to not charge Hunter for it.
And you threaten Hunter with hard time, who says he won’t roll over on Pops?
Couldn’t they charge people just to gag them? That’s one of the possible motives behind crucifying Flynn.
Four years of seeing some of the most naked corruption and hypocrisy imaginable and not one person suffering any real consequences has my cynicism maxed out. It won’t be until after the election regardless. I sure ain’t no lawyer, but I don’t see how knowingly making a copy of CP and giving it to anyone other than the police isn’t going to be a crime in one way or another.
They impeached Trump for Biden’s corruption that he admitted to on tape. Seems very possible they go after some nobody who fixes up machines to send a message about messing things up for our betters.
(All assuming the CP reports are true)
The nobody also gave copies to unknown associates, like a sort-of deadman’s switch to immunize himself.
The FBI has had the laptop for a year… If its really Hunters laptop they’re actively covering for him.
Roll over to who?
today I learned…..”quotidian”
What a mundane word.
You say that too often.
“I told my daughter this morning that if he wins again he’ll probably start rounding people up. “You might get a call at some point to come bail out Mommy.” We both laughed nervously.”

OFFS!!
it’s good to see that they’re letting families visit the insane asylum again.
Last I checked, Trump wasn’t the one vowing ti create tens (possibly hundreds) of millions of felons in one stroke of the pen simply for possessing items, the right to which is guaranteed in the founding document of our government.
If only the victims of the Nazis had thought to post bail.
Maybe one of these things is not like the other…
lolno
quotidian exit chute was my nickname in col… wait!

Crazy.
Alex, Ill take “people that want attention” for $500
““My husband ran and got the gun and shot back at the vehicle that was leaving.”
Anyone dove into the QAnon stuff at all? any recommendations of where to start?
Unless you’re you’re studying larping and mass psychosis don’t start. It’s nonsense.
SHUT THE FUCK UP, PEDOTARD!
Also, no happy hour today?
You mean a Zoom happy hour? Has there ever been one on a Wednesday?
I don’t know the schedule. I just ask when I’m actually in a position to join it.
Usually only Friday & Saturday. I think the one on Wednesday was for some debate
There was one for the Veep debate or some such?
Im off tonight, but too faded to even jump in. Plus, I still need another TV.

Trump rally live
FBI to hold a news conference shortly about the election. ?
Probably nothing exciting
It has to do with election security. So probably something along the lines of russia and china have hacked voting systems but haven’t changed votes bla bla bla.
Plus Russia hacked the NY Post.

The sign is tilted…
Dare I say, crooked?
Ha!
“The FBI acknowledges that Russia is actively interfering in the election with the express purpose of helping known Russian asset Trump win reelection. As such, the FBI recommends that all negative information about Biden be ignored as it is Russian disinformation. We have asked Twitter and Facebook to assist and they have generously agreed.”
NotTheBee….I actually could hear them say that…if not this year, in 2024 and beyond
Director Wray “our integrity.”
I’m sorry what?
Clown show
A Manhattan federal court hearing for a case that hinges on the allegation that President Donald Trump raped a writer more than two decades ago ended abruptly Wednesday, after a government lawyer was barred from the courthouse due to New York’s coronavirus rules.
Lawyers for the Department of Justice had planned to make oral arguments in person before Judge Lewis Kaplan to support their position that the DOJ should be allowed to intervene in E. Jean Carroll’s defamation lawsuit against Trump.
But one of those lawyers was denied entry to the courthouse in lower Manhattan earlier in the day because he had traveled there from his home in Virginia.
Virginia is among a group of states whose residents must quarantine for 14 days if they travel to New York state, because of Covid-19 precautions.
Can the thing get any more absurd?
I thought she’d been thoroughly discredited but, hey, her story’s more plausible than the Russia nonsense.
Cue articles from the MSM about how Trump is too chicken to visit blue states.
‘ group of states’?
I think we’re up to 45 now. . . There’s barely anywhere you can go anymore.
Chris Christie: I should have worn a mask
…and gone for a jog… and suffocated on your own vomit.
Maybe you should have welded yourself into your home, because that’s the only way it isn’t gonna getchoo eventually.
Unless you blockade yourself in with an indefinite supply of food and water, it’s still gonna get in eventually.
We’re talking about sloopy’s sperm, right?
You guys think about sloopy’s sperm a lot.
Also, hi key jealous over here.
If you want me to think about your sperm, please mail it to our office.
Wait, I thought every conversation was about Sloopy’s sperm.
And yet the fat fuck pulled through, just like the way over 99 percent who do just that.
Lol Iran and Russia…..nothingburger FBI presser
Did you expect anything?
Sometimes.
Yup. Total waste of time.
See something say something! So question is…what did we just bomb and was it an aspirin factory?
So for those with actual memory…this is a direct response from Trump on what he feels Obama should have done in 2016 on the eve of the election.
Here’s a short little song that will bring joy to your dark craven heart.
Dead End America
by the best of Midwest. Or is that the Zero Boys?
Stoned To Death
There is no ‘best’.
The midwest pushed out a ton of great punk, just like the west coast, just like the east coast and just like the UK. Because punk is not geographic.
However…
This is the best.
SoCal garage punk is the best.
If we’re gonna do that, guess who I prefer…
North Dallas post punk disagrees.
Don’t harsh my buzz!
Howabout some The Beltones
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edtEpPhSk20
Buzzes abound.
I dunno.
Everything turns grey.
Some political commentary I can finally agree with.
Let’s go
a different direction.
How about some Dirty Rotten Imbeciles?
Love it!
Have some Suicide Commandos!
Something different?
Do you even punk, bro?
Look at all the links. We all punk.
Trump and Hicks.
The hair is lovely. Just a thought.
I just heard that, because people are staying home and likely doing more hiking, we are seeing at least twice as many snakebites and three times as many scorpion bites as in the Before Times.
Did not see that coming.
So we’re gonna be up to two fatal snake bites a year in this country?
Not sure how many we treat (very, very rare to lose someone who gets treated), but I think its a couple dozen a year, typically. Tucson is crawling with rattlesnakes. I generally kill a couple a year on my property, but I live right next to a national park and probably see more than my fair share.
The US averages about five fatal snake bites per year, out of maybe 5-6k venomous bites.
