Yay! STFU and get the shot!
“Sentient hairpieces”. My day is complete.
Seconded.
Thriced.
Ah. That reminds me of a good tune I haven’t heard in a while.
I never heard that before. It was good.
Back before I got tired of Octane pushing new pop-flavored rock on Octane (SiriusXM) I learned of a handful of good bands like Thrice out there making good music.
Bands like Royal Blood
No shit.
I really liked that one.

You were warned.
“Warned”. Why didn’t you just say, “Don’t click this link!” I mean, I basically had to click it.
It’s your duty, right there in the social contract.
Oh, yeahāI keep forgetting that I signed that thing.
I did sign it, didnāt I?
The USG signed a contract in 1789 and then proceeded to violate it (with extreme prejudice) over the last 232 years. I’ll have to check with the legal glibs but my recollection of contract law states that if one party defaults then the contract is null and void.

Never in the lifetime of planet earth has a species gone extinct before anthropogenic global warmingā¦
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-declare-23-species-including-ivory-billed-woodpecker-extinct-ap-2021-09-29/
Are they back on the extinction train again?
They havenāt been using that one much lately.
ā Although the woodpecker and some of the other creatures proposed for removal from the U.S. endangered species list have been functionally extinct for decades, scientists have warned that human-caused climate change and habitat destruction could make such disappearances more common.ā
Everybody knows things that happened decades ago were caused by the events of today.
Yeah I don’t know so much about this shit.
You’d think scienticians would have to prove the existence of “human-caused climate change” first.
The Scientistic Method involves a faceless bureaucracy declaring it to be true, and maybe a sympathetic judge if anyone objects.
I guess I have to believe the ‘scientists’ because all of my Facebook friends believe the scientists. I don’t know who the scientists are, but I’m going to play it safe and sound really smart and sciency here.

Mark Steyn has been stuck in a lawsuit with Michael Mann for nine years (Mann sued Steyn, who counter sued and refused to give up without his day in court). But itās the Washington DC court system and theyāve been dragging it out as long as possible.
I can’t believe that shit. Mann is an obvious fraud to anyone who has looked into the data and the way it has been manipulated over decades.
Hence kicking the court date down the roadā¦
Heck, now that they have Covid with which to scare people into giving up freedom and close all the small businesses (leaving only well-connected big businesses afloat), maybe they will tone back the climate change hysteria.
Feh – if anything, they’re feeling their oats and ramping up the climate hysteria.
Even among climate scientist, he is something of a problem. He has a tendency to be careless with his calculations and and his conclusions as a result. His ideas –from their perspective — may be good but they need to be checked.

Buried in literally the last paragraph (kudos for mentioning it at all?):
Yeah, but, global climate change is gonna wipe out all those bald eagles I see. Then they’ll really be extinct, for real.
While I would like to see ivory billed woodpeckers around I must say that I really haven’t missed them. I see the pileated woodpeckers occasionally and I’m always happy to see them as well.
Kind of like dinosaurs, I’m sort of glad I don’t have to contend with them in my garden, the ‘chucks and gophers are enough of a problem.
We have year-round resident snowy and hairy woodpeckers and they’re cool. But when a big pileated stops by for a day or two visit, it’s really a treat. I keep hoping every spring that one will hang around, but they keep moving through.
Was walking across the parking lot of a Target in Middletown, NJ this weekend and my wife says āHey! Look at that bald eagle!ā It was slowly circling about 40 feet above the parking lot. I was all, āThatās not a bald eagle.ā
We watched it circle for a couple of minutes. It was a bald eagle. Then it dove into some shrubbery and probably snagged a squirrel or something.
Circle of life.
Bet all the Ice Age megafauna are pissed they can’t blame humans for all the warming that killed them off.
LOL. You guys are geniuses. Thanks to me, now known around the world.
For all you PC gamers, I highly recommend New World. No worries, plenty of servers in USA and you should be able to get right in now.
For now, don’t talk to anyone in chat, period. Voice or Text, don’t do it. Apparently, their moderation is automated and every bit as stupid as Twitter.
I’m having a lot more fun with a game I just spent $2.49 on than should be reasonably possible. It’s a puzzle game so not everyone’s cup of tea but I like it.
I started playing āSlayaway Campā on mobile. Really enjoyable funny puzzle game.
https://bluewizard.com/slayawaycamp/
Adorable! I missed that one. Actually, I miss a shit-ton of games. I don’t play nearly as much as I used to so it’s easy to miss a lot of stuff that would appeal to me.

The three deadliest letters for any video game’s appeal: MMO
Yeap.
Nyope.
My favorite thing about MMOs is that they keep going. It would always piss me off when the next game in a series (Ultima, Xeen, Bard’s Tale) would come and you’d have to start over as a level one tard.
Now, if the game is set up where you have to interact with people, that would be a game breaker. But for games lie Star Trek Online of Lord of the Rings Online, you can solo those forever.
Also, City of Heroes (before the CoV expansion) had no real PvP and no option to play as a bad guy, so it attracted an amazingly non-douchebag playerbase.
The thing about MMOs is that they’re boring and cluttered with other people. Plus, having to cater to the individual games of all those people limits what can be done. Oh, and it’s online. Every MMO I’ve tried whether I lasted a short while or a long while died with the same realization – “I’m not having any fun”.
PtP?
A distinction without a difference, I know.
This is a MUMORPUGER!
Well, it’s no longer true since you can play solo for hundreds of hours. If you don’t need PVP, it’s good.
‘For now, donāt talk to anyone in chat, period. Voice or Text, donāt do it. Apparently, their moderation is automated and every bit as stupid as Twitter.’
https://youtu.be/gv_f-8pt9wE
That’s pretty much it.
Yeah its fun…but I have had to bounce to three different servers now cause of their server caps on the worlds. I pick a lightly populated server and now I am in a que for an hour. Sorry, I will not just sit around for that shit.
If a few things go my way soon I’ll save myself around $800 dollars a month while improving my living conditions.
The point being: I may be able to throw some fetti at CPRM again and reclaim the contributer status he’s let me coast on in the credits for the past year…with back pay…no interest. We never settled on those terms..
…The Donald Level Shall Rise Again!
Jealous. I just signed another year’s lease when I really would rather move.
OTOH the new-ish landlord has been trying to scam me out of hundreds of dollars in security deposits by claiming they don’t have any record of my topping it up every year when the previous owners raised my rent. And I sent the lease in a couple days late.
If they choose to be assholes and try to demand that security deposit or tell me I have to move out, I’m prepared to move and I know I will save hundreds of dollars a month. But moving is expensive AF and shit is too up in the air thanks to Uncle Joe.
Good luck.
Thank you. I’m cautiously optimistic that this going to work out.
I’m sorry to hear about the troubles with new ownership. You’d think that they’d give your rental history a quick scan and realize that “Oh, this is a reliable cat. Let’s not treat him like a jackoff.”
And as I’ve stated before: the strategic placement of one’s self around a Midwestern city within a Maroon State with Bluish/Purple urban areas isn’t a terrible existence.
You’re a firmly middle-aged man now. How much overpriced excitement in a densely populated, increasing authoritarian city do you really need in your life now?
You have an in demand skill set across the country. Explore your options, dude.
And it’s not like I have a social life any more.
Move to Toledo! Find yourself a in demand job and marry a slightly pudgy man with a short trimmed beard who works as management in a discount tire outlet who also enjoys horticulture and Antiques Roadshow marathons. There’s wost fates in life!

Oh, I was just adding on to the extra characteristics of the mythical Midwestern husband I conjured for you. I have no idea if you’re into that shit.

“horticulture and Antiques Roadshow”
“bingo and … Taco Thursday at the Legion”
Wow. Is that what you guys imagine he’s into? He’s a middle-aged gay man, not a Golden Girl.
So hurtful.
(maybe not Taco Thursday. Who doesn’t like tacos?)
slum…”Midwestern” is the key word here.
All I’m saying is when you make a big geographical and cultural leap one must adjust and settle.
slumā¦āMidwesternā is the key word here.
Fair. In fact, that _is_ what I imagine middle-aged Midwesterners are into, regardless of sexual orientation.
I stand corrected.
*pictures rhywun in Toledo kinda like this*
‘I like it, TH. They will also play bingo every Friday at the VFW. And go to Taco Thursday at the Legion.’
And they’ll enjoy serving their friends a cream of mushroom/green bean casserole topped with cornflakes lickety-split!
I grew up on the other side of the Appalachians. That’s Midwest as far as I’m concerned.
” Who doesnāt like tacos?”

I just cleaned up a lot of credit and got out of a messy and costly under the table rental agreement that I desperately needed at the beginning of the year. It was ugly. Remember when I had a breakdown and begged you all for a few hundred bucks last fall?(You glorious pricks responded with around $1200. God, I love you people.)
Things went sideways on me and I was on the edge of homeless/suicideal around that time. I’m finally able to tell these people I no longer need the cover at a premium price.
A few weeks ago I was convinced that things were getting darker. Maybe not.

Hilarious. Local city has plans for shed homes available in their quest to densify and destroy SFH zoned neighborhoods (fees waived, build now!). 500 odd sqft studios. No interior walls except for the bathroom to save costs and then put a crawlspace on top of a full slab instead of just using the slab.
Be a shame if a raft of unexplained fires burned those down while they were being built.

Nice work, CPRM! Judi just got the mandate yesterday. Mine is soon to follow. We grasshoppers have no choice but to submit. I feel like a weakling and a loser but we’re old and it’s too late to start over. She was in tears when I called her. All of this is meant to grind free-thinking people underfoot, to let us know who is really pulling the strings. It’s a long weekend for me but it won’t be pleasant. I kinda barked at her yesterday when she suggested that we pack up and move into the wild. That’s gonna leave a mark… She’s been doing the rally thing and I’ve been merely holding out. Divide and Conquer. Split families, set people against one another. Now I feel like crying. All of this because populists were gaining traction against the entrenched powers. It will get much worse before it gets better.
I do believe that part of their plan is to divide people (families, too) over this nonsense. Grind on.
Illegitimi non carborundum!
This will schism our Family, our Neighbors, our Cow-workers and the Populace at large. It’s been planned and executed with blinding speed. Certain family members won’t communicate.
