I don’t think I’ve ever watched an episode with him as host. Is this a sign that the age of woke is ending?
That’s all I got for today. I’ll leave you with a song and move along with my day.
“South Carolina braces for Ian’s second coming”
It sure pounded Fla like a sex crazed meathead pounds his $2 ho…
Good luck NC.
There’s gotta be a STEVE SMITH joke in there somewhere.
WHYCOME THERE NO HURRICANE STEVE?
And just like that anthropologists and rapepologists discover that a branch of the cryptid line they had long thought extinct was not at all… And the screaming, running, and crying drowned out the howling wind…
SKUNK SMITH, ONCE YOU SMELL ALREADY TOO LATE.
HURRICANE LE PEU, MERCI BEAU COUP!
HURRICANE LE PEU PREFER OTHER SIDE OF GULF, MONSIEUR. OOH, LA LA….
HURRICANE STEVE HAVE HUGE STORM SURGE!!

STEVE’S STORM ONLY HAVE ONE EYE… AND IT AM BLIND.
“4th Leak Reported on Nord Stream Pipelines in Baltic Sea”
So can we now assume this is just the usual Russian maintenance folly that was common during the days of the heady progressive USSR?
From instapundit….
AN article suggesting exactly what you said.
https://thelawdogfiles.com/2022/09/nordstream.html
I will tell you right now that my first take on the original story was that no sane and competent special forces command would EVER have accepted a task to sabotage anything that required them to do things 17 hours apart and basically risk getting caught, but I kept my mouth shut because in these days of woke military shit, I lack enough visibility in both the intelligence of the people involved with the decision making and the actual doing in most militaries, both NATO and Russian, but especially ours, to accurately make that call.
After this latest shit, I am sure this is now far more likely to just be a coincidence tied to the usual poor maintenance of anything when it comes to the morons that usually end up in charge.
UUVs could do it.
Not without risking being picked up by undersea monitoring early warning networks in that area, and again, what nation wants to hang out for 17 hrs to complete such a mission even w/ UUVs.
Possible that the first was sabotage, and the remainder are due to cascading failures.
A plausible theory, but doesn’t really explain the 2nd explosion 17 hours later. Also it’s a bit heavy on “Russians are idiots”.
They are not idiots: they are lazy. It’s a thig that plagues everything Russian even today. You should see the trouble they have with every single industry, state owned or otherwise…
For years, Americans bought rides to the ISS on the reliable Russian Soyuz, having lost the ability to get astronauts there themselves.
Yeah, that program was plagued with a shit ton of problems that were quickly buried to not damage the whole thing…
Relevant.
Potential cause:
They were trying to pack the line with gas and went over safe pressure levels (or close enough with some defects).
This prompts the question – why overpressurize the line when they didn’t have the replacement pumping turbines that were stuck on a German dock due to sanctions and the Germans weren’t accepting incoming gas?
It is a method of storing gas during low demand, so you can sell it later, rather than having to burn it off.
Not sure about the turbines side as I’m no pipeline expert.
Someone pointed out it was eco terrorism. Greta Thunberg and her frog monkey Spec Force team sabotaged the thing to save Gaia!
Ha!
I entertained that idea for about 3 seconds before realizing they’d kill themselves before they got remotely close to getting tot he pipeline.
Thank you. A good article with solid information.
That was very interesting and entirely plausible
Two separate pipelines. One literally brand new and pressurized but not in use. The other that had been in use for a few years, now in standby mode. Germany about to run out of power this winter and already tempted to turn one or both pipelines back on – effectively breaking with the U.S. in the war in the Ukraine.
Now both pipelines blow up on the same day because of unrelated maintenance issues (taking away the Germans’ temptation to make up with Russia)? That is stretching credibility way past the breaking point. Even western media outlets that would love to blame it on Russian stupidity aren’t trying.
First, they tried to tell us that the Russians blew holes in their own pipelines because…profit? That was absurd on its face, and was pretty much laughed off by sane peopke
So now they’ve switched to “the pipelines are blowing up on their own because Russians are incompetent as proven by..Soviet Union!”
It just has to be Russia! Russia! Russia! once again.
Yeah, coincidences don’t add up this fast.
“US Army’s first trans officer, wife indicted for passing military medical info to Russians”
Now do the massive amount of them doing this for the CCP…. Cause those are the ones really screwing us over.
Yup. Chinese applications to acquire stakes in US companies DOUBLED in 2021 compared to prior years.
The “Biden” administration released a cautionary note yesterday (or at least recently) to the effect that China is acquiring stakes in US companies in an attempt to get access to sensitive if not classified information.
Chinese nationals (or naturalized US citizens born in China) employed by the US National labs are a weak point as well.
Didn’t we just get a link the other day about how much stronger the woke military is?
It is one of our enemies’ finest assets.
The CCP is taking full advantage of the election they won in 2020?
“FBI allegedly engaging in ‘purge’ of conservative employees, retaliating against whistleblowers”
This was the primary purpose of the Obama administration when they told us they were going to fundamentally change things.
Obama’s goal was to make America like every other banana republic that gives leftists scumbags a hardon.
“Biden Admin Names White House Chief Of Staff’s Wife As Ambassador For Plants And Animals”
Which US 3 letter agency makes sure that the plants & animals don’t engage in misinformation?
2028: President Hunter Biden appoints his horse to the Senate.
Post-midterms 2022, Biden appoints a house plant VP after forcing Harris out. The world rejoices.
He already appointed one houseplant for VP.
Caligula claps.
There is probably a greasy fist joke in this somewhere, butt I’m too lazy to fish it out.
Bureau of Animal Security BAS
Run by sheep, I presume.
No that’s the Bureau of Animal Administration BAA
I thought that merged with the Cricket Control Authority and is now BAA-HUMBUG.
Even in Massachusetts and New Jersey when connected pols got their family members lucrative no-show jobs, they at least had plausible titles and job descriptions.
“So about this job.”
“Yeah?”
“What did you do as the Director of Rural Outreach for Upper Manhattan?”
“Sometimes I’d visit Central Park and see if it was still there.”
“And as Tristate Coordinator of Rural Outreach?”
“I’d inspect the ski resorts in Vermont, or the beaches on Martha’s Vinyard.”
So, we can safely indict everyone who works there now under RICO?
Merrick Garland will get right on that.
He’s on the list of people to be indicted. We’ll have to have someone else do it.
I’ll take “Things that will never happen” for $500, Alex.
Not with that attitude, Mister!
It sounds best in the original German: Glauben Sie mir, es werden Köpfe rollen.
Fauci’s net worth jumping during the crisis he created is unsurprising. What is surprising is the piss-ant stakes they are playing for. $12.5M? $400k/yr? I bet a dude who owns a chain of 3 CVSes or a handful of McDonalds or a small car dealership is worth more. Like dude you killed gays, tortured dogs, and ruined the economy just to be less rich than the guy who sells trucks to farmers outside of town? Maybe Fauci has other assets offshore.
You see, the guy who built the business had to work for his money.
That Gnome Fauci only had to lie and let people die.
“Fauci’s net worth jumping during the crisis he created is unsurprising.”
This is a distraction. The crooks have made this asshole their fall guy. EVERYONE involved with the criminal Kung Flu political attack to help the global reset team, made out like bandits. They stole or destroyed trillions of dollars, affecting hundreds of millions. These scumbags are always talking about how the rich stole from the unwashed poor under capitalist systems, to peddle their wealth redistribution rackets, but then show without any doubt that they are the real crooks and that they really hate the middle classes.
I’m reading The Great Reser by Marc Marano.
Depressing.
Yeah — that was my thought when I read it yesterday. I figured with Pharma kickbacks, royalties and insider trading he would have pulled at least a couple hundred million over the last couple of years. Slacker.
I haven’t been adding $1m+ annually to my net worth for the past 6 years…
Slacker.
Most people have trouble adding $1 million to their net worth over their life.
Start now, Sean – with an onlyfans page 🙂
STEVE SMITH NOT PAY TO SEE THE DOCTOR — MAKE HOUSE CALL AND WILL COME IN.
Me either, but my parents’ net worth and income are about the same as Fauci’s, and they didn’t have to leave an international swathe of destruction behind them. They just own a business with two locations in town.
Ah — kulaks and wreckers then, to be sure.
Almost certainly to be the target of the wrath of some of the 80,000 new IRS field agents.
Unreported stock in Pfizer?
Exactly my thoughts. And he’s been on the job for around 200 years.
It would have been higher, but the unions have made exercising your Janus rights absurdly difficult. They’ll probably get sued again over it.
That’s a huge Daily Ray of Sunshine right there.
You have to opt out annually during open enrollment. The form is 20 pages long and will be rejected for any mistake.
If not, they would be saying that the losses would be north of the 80% number, I am sure.

Prove to our satisfaction that you don’t want to be part of our union.
You need five character witness’s.
And the passwords to all your social media accounts and a drug-free urinalysis.
You have to set up a retainer with an amount equal to one year’s worth of union dues to ensure that any mistakes are covered.
It’s for your own good.
“Major government unions lose over 200,000 members after Supreme Court’s workers’ rights ruling”
A headline more reflective of reality would be “Democrat money stealing racket loses 200k people that are too smart to remain stooges being fleeced to help buy votes for a political party that hates them for not bending the knee”…
“Meta freezes hiring as CEO Mark Zuckerberg blames economy”
My product is an evil thing that sucks ass, but that’s not the problem for why the lemmings are not ponying up fucking cash?

A fourth leak on the Nord Stream pipelines has been reported off southern Sweden, the Swedish coast guard said Thursday.
“We have leakage at two positions” off Sweden, coast guard spokesperson Mattias Lindholm. There are two more off Denmark, he said.
This is fine.

US Army’s first trans officer, wife indicted for passing military medical info to Russians
I believe it was technically passed to the fbi.
Is this a sign that the age of woke is ending?
All of those things, and add that Noah is less funny and charismatic than Stewart (of course even if he were Stewart’s equal woke sucks the fun out of a room). No, the age of woke isn’t ending, it just doesn’t sell well. It will still be used as a bludgeon to virtue signal and for amoral unimpressive people to illegitimately raise their position in hierarchies.
Noah is less funny than a scream coming from the basement of an abandoned house.
“GM Delays Return-to-Work Plans to 2023”
Most employers are realizing that if they embrace the practice for employees that don’t need to be on site to perform their duties (keyboard jockeys, being the big example) they can save a lot of money as long as they put some minimal monitoring to verify performance does not degrade. You fire a couple of slackers every 6 months, and the others will keep productivity high.
I have repeatedly told management types that you hand out work w/ a deadline and you leave your work horse alone to deliver. As soon as all you want to do is micro manage so you can suck more effort out of people, you can kiss productivity goodbye.
True. We had a guy leave this year – productivity not the issue- because one year of family law only burned him out. Now the bosses are making sure everyone else isn’t burned out. We have little micro management & high level of trust in the firm so I’m happy.
From what I’ve heard of Family Law, that is.. uh.. a… somewhat stressful field to work in.
because one year of family law only burned him out
It wouldn’t take me even a year to get there. I’d get way too wrapped up emotionally in my clients’ outcomes and would burn out very quickly.
I know people that have paid their lawyers tens of thousands of dollars to prevent their ex spouse from getting something worth a couple of hundreds of dollars. I get spending a fortune and going on for ever if you are fighting over the kids or to prevent getting fucked in the ass when you have a lot of property/equity that was not equally obtained, but when you fight just to get revenge, you are not being too bright. Especially if your costs will be higher than your rewards. But people are people.
I got lucky that my ex knew I would accept a equitable divorce in order to get it over with quickly, since I had made it very clear to her that I would go scorched earth on her ass if she tried to get the upper hand like her lawyer sister was telling her to do to fuck me over even though the divorce was all hers. So we settled quickly on that she kept hers, I kept mine, and I would give her half the value of the house and kept that. Most important was that we did equal time w/ my kid who decided to stick w/ me after he became of adult age (and moved back in now that the Kung Flu destroyed his ability to find roommates that are financially reliable in todays climate). it was all over in record time.
I feel bad for people that drag these things out for whatever reason.
The reward is not monetary, it’s spite. They have decided that thousands in legal fees is acceptable if it spites their ex.
That’s my problem the: I prefer to not lose financially, or for that matter in any sense, just for a short lived and sad emotional win. Then again, this is one of the main reasons women end up mad at me: appeals to emotion fall on deaf ears.
My brother went through the opposite… everything got dragged out… the only thing of value that they could have fought over was the kids and who would get how much of their debt. fun times for him I’m sure.
“Is this a sign that the age of woke is ending?”
I don’t see how. I never saw him or many of the replacement late-night hosts either.

That’s right. I wonder whatever happened to him. He quit the show to go be a movie star and then didn’t.

passing military medical info to Russians
Did they pass a list of
known traitorsvaccine refuseniks to the enemy?Who was not doing enough trans treatments in the US military…
I wonder if the Russians would have even cared about the information they were trying to pass.
“Uh, thank you for this valuable information, comrade … ” ::hucks papers into trash::
It would not surprise me in the least if the Russian Embassy didn’t just pass on the info to the FBI, rather than it being “intercepted”.
President Joe Biden’s Department of Agriculture (USDA) is spending tens of millions in tax dollars to bring fiber optic internet to rural southeast Alaska.
As part of USDA’s “Reconnect Program,” it awarded a roughly $33 million grant to the Alaska Telephone Company (ATC), the agency announced last Thursday. Fiber will be delivered to 92 households and a total of 211 people and five businesses in two Alaska native villages called Skagway and Chilkat, according to a federal grant award listing.
Worth every penny.
Well, it is spent now — no sense blubbering about it, especially compared to the sink hole of Ukraine.
I wonder if ATC considers their biggest spending customer (the USDA) a “whale”.
Tens of millions is nothing.
It was only $150K per person.
It’s an investment into the future!
Chill cat? Not hoopy frood?
Can’t we get Alaska to raise their own pigs instead of getting federal pork?
Ask them if they all would have preferred $200k a head instead of internet access. Pretty sure they could get starlink or some shit.
Also, why is your rural ass the fedgov’s responsibility?
Just like people who don’t like the crime in cities should move, so too the rural if they dislike their lack of services.
I wonder how many of those people will then forgo installing their high-speed internet when ATC wants to charge them $50-$70 for access.
The FBI is allegedly engaging in a “purge” of employees with conservative viewpoints and retaliating against whistleblowers who have made protected disclosures to Congress by revoking security clearances, the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee Rep. Jim Jordan told Fox News Digital.
Jordan, R-Ohio, said that more than a dozen FBI whistleblowers have come to him and Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee with allegations of misconduct within the FBI.
But MAGA Republicans are the fascists.

Dems hate her because she married a black man.

So what else is new?
Go ahead, try impeachment.

Biden Admin Names White House Chief Of Staff’s Wife As Ambassador For Plants And Animals
What the actual fuck is this shit? (Never mind the nepotism that the left would be shrieking about if this were an R…)
“Medina and the department will crack down on “nature crime” such as illegal mining and logging, to promote biodiversity and keep water supplies clean, the department stated. The special envoy will also implement the White House’s water security plan and the Global Water Strategy, initiatives that seek to stop droughts across the globe without increasing greenhouse gas emissions.
Medina will continue to serve in her current role as the Assistant Secretary of State for Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs in addition to taking on her new responsibilities as special envoy, according to the announcement. The envoy will also represent the U.S. in global climate conferences like the 2023 United Nations (UN) Water Conference.”
It’s more climate pork.

I’m up early sitting with my little kitty. He has an appointment this morning at 7:30 to get vaccinated, chipped, and neutered.
Poor little guy has no idea what he’s in for.
If he did, I strongly suspect he’d be under a bed where you couldn’t find him or something.
Enjoy the next week of cone of shame — our youngest girl (a few months back now) was a real artist at slipping out of it.
Get the kitty some chicken afterwards. He’ll forget all about the ordeal.
Maybe he identifies as a eunuch and you’re just affirming his identity?

Wow it takes 30 seconds to figure out that 9 years ago DeSantis actually identified the Sandy relief package contained spending into 2021. He didn’t oppose the idea of a bailout he opposed THAT specific stuff. What a horrific oppo party research dump dressed as news.
They would lie even if silence or telling the truth would benefit them more, because their nature is to gaslight the idiots that pay for their content.
The purpose of the NYT is simply to confirm the world view of the sort of people who read the NYT.
In case anyone thought we’d be stopping this insanity anytime soon.

FL never got a major hurricane before DeSatan questioned climate change dogma.
The View thinks that hurricane Ian is a direct result of Governor Desantis’ stance on climate change.
“And now his state is getting hit with one of the worst hurricanes.”

No… God smiting was the 700 club (or one of the other evangelical morning shows). This is GAIA smiting. Completely different.
Animists.
Superstorm Sandy wasn’t the act of a vengeful Gaia, naturally.
I can’t believe The View isn’t some sort of performance art. It’s so over-the-top stupid and evil.
I know plenty of people who are stupid evil. Once they’ve picked a side, it’s mendacity and vileness towards anyone who doesn’t agree enthusiastically and wholeheartedly.
The first Spanish attempt at a settlement in what is now Florida took place on August 15, 1559 when eleven ships and 1500 colonists sailed into Pensacola Bay. Five weeks later, on Saturday, September 19, a major hurricane struck the nascent colony, sinking six ships and damaging supplies to the extent that the fifty survivors eventually made their way back to Veracruz, Mexico.
When latter-day lackwits try to point out some connection between Anthropogenic Climate Change and Florida getting whacked by the occasional tropical cyclone, I enlighten them about this nugget of state history.
“Clearly Gaia was protecting the poor indigenous folx from the evil Colonizers!”
Florida literally has indigenous palms and trees that have evolved over geologic time to become essentially hurricane-proof (namely Sabal palms and live oaks).
I’ve seen clips of them saying “Oh now DeSantis wants government money! Isn’t that SOCIALISM! Hahaha!”
Been watching “Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story”. The first 3 episodes were pretty good, if a little overdramatized. Starting with episode 4 it’s gone to hell mostly because it, like everything else made in the past 5+ years, can’t be content with telling a story, it has to align with THE MESSAGE.
It’s now going on absurd diatribes about how he unconsciously selected his victims based on race and he wasn’t caught sooner because of “systemic racism” and that his crimes are just an expression of white supremacy and blah blah blah tedious proggy bullshit. AFAICT there is no evidence whatsoever that his crimes were motivated by race and the reason he wasn’t caught sooner was garden variety lousy police work + blind luck on Dahmer’s part. But what good is telling a story, especially a true story, if you can’t lie and twist it to fit your agenda?
You wonder if they’re really that convinced of their arguments or if they’re just rubbing your nose in it because they can.
There may be some true believers, but there is definately a culture of “Stay on Message or you’ll never work in this town again!”
This phenom plagues all content from Hollyweird nowadays. Some of it you can watch if you dismiss the dreck. Most of it is so bad however, that it costs IQ points. What really scares me is how the young people of today gobble this shit up. it tells me Ideocracy is here 500 years earlier than the movie predicted.
I’m going to need a citation on the gobbling of this content. All the data points to pathetic viewership and audience abandonment.
All the shit Disney puts out? Especially in the Star Wars universe?
They burned through all the goodwill their recent numbers are abysmal.
People were not going for The Message, and are turning away.
What really scares me is how the young people of today gobble this shit up
They get a full court press from media (traditional and social), school, and just about every other major institution. They had no chance.
Because “racism” is worse than all that other stuff now.
Dahmer’s real victim was *insert identity group here*.
This is the pattern they use. The downplaying of the crime against the individual and the elevation of the crime against the “group.”
appropriate
LOL
Huh… I would have assumed you’d be watching this Monster, Q.
I knew there had to be someone, somewhere who enjoyed fake boobs, but damn, wanting to lick the scars is kinda sick.
I’ve only seen through episode 4, so I am not sure what you are talking about. That episode was how he failed out of OSU, got kicked out of the army, and then kicked out of the bathhouses.
It’s episode 5 then, the one after that.
Ah okay. Overall in the episodes I have seen there is a huge effort being made to humanize him. Sure he is human after all, but seems a bit over the top for you know, a guy who ate people.
He was a Humanitarian!
A humanophile, if you will.
He sacrificed
forothers.He loved people food!
Dammit, he’s a people person!
It’s a cookbook!!
Also, he wasn’t caught because of homophobia? That’s implied in the episodes I have seen and also, a very reasonable take!
It changes from that to “hE gOeS aFtEr BlAcK pEePlE bEcUz He KnOwS hE wOn’T gEt CoT bEcUz ThE wOrLd DoEsN’t CaRe AbOuT bLaCk PeEpLe!!!111!!!”
Also, kinda funny I guess: Netflix originally had it in the LGBTQ+ category and had to remove it due to social media backlash. Now, I think that 90% of their categories are stupid anyway and the focus of the series is not the “gayness”. But, he was gay and his victims were largely other gay men he picked up at clubs, so if anything seems like it deserves to go in that category, it’s this. But we can’t allow a single unflattering portrayal of [insert protected group] because that goes against THE MESSAGE.

Freaky Friday: Russ Hanneman In the Hood
The west/NATO are going to make sure of it.
“You see a crisis in every part of the world,” Vucic told the Serbian state broadcaster RTS.
“I think realistic predictions ought to be even darker,” he added. “Our position is even worse, since the UN has been weakened and the great powers have taken over and practically destroyed the UN order over the past several decades.”
The Serbian leader cautioned that the war between Russia and Ukraine had moved on to a far deadlier phase.
“I assume that we’re leaving the phase of the special military operation and approaching a major armed conflict, and now the question becomes where is the line, and whether after a certain time – maybe a month or two, even – we will enter a great world conflict not seen since the Second World War,” he said.
Smithfield Foods Inc has agreed to pay $75 million to settle a lawsuit by consumers who accused the meat producer and several competitors of conspiring to inflate prices in the $20 billion-a-year U.S. pork market by limiting supply.
Talk about a ham-handed attempt to make a quick buck…
Seems like there was a lot at steak.
SOMEBODY needs to bring home the bacon.
No motive
A British defence source told Sky News the attack was probably premeditated and detonated from afar using underwater mines or other explosives.
“Something big caused those explosions which means … Russia could do it. In theory, the United States could also do it but I don’t really see the motivation there,” Oliver Alexander, an open source intelligence analyst, told Reuters.
The United States had long called for Europe to end its reliance on Russian gas, he said, but Washington had little obvious motivation to act now because Nord Stream was no longer pumping gas to Europe at the time the leaks were found, although the pipelines had gas under pressure inside them.
“They already succeeded in stopping Nord Stream 2. It was already dead in the water, it wasn’t going anywhere,” he said.
Case closed.
It certainly had nothing to do with the protests in Germany demanding that they turn on the pipeline.
Former CIA Director and famously scrupulous truth teller John Brennan has been going on CNN to promote the “it was Russians what dun it” theory, which pretty much confirms for me that it wasn’t an industrial accident.

Baghdad Bob had more credibility.
There’s plenty of motivation to go around.
1. The Poles have vehemently opposed NordStream from the beginning and have attempted an attack against it before.
2. US/NATO wants to keep Germany in line over the winter.
3. Davos wants to create a full-blown crisis in pursuit of their unified EU commie dreams.
4. Ukraine has its own obvious reasons.
5. Not to mention the various financial interests at play in the LNG trade.
The obvious thing is that nobody gives a shit about the civilians here. No matter which explanation you take, barring the preposterous maintenance one, the psychopaths in charge are willing to the sacrifice the population to achieve their goals.
Given the timetable of failures, IF (and I stress if) the pressure-storage scenario is accurate (and it is plausible on its face given what I’ve seen of the domestic glut the problem has caused and the issues of scaling production at the wells) then I’m leaning towards the maintenance stories. Even ignoring the soviets, the post-cold war track record for Russian infrastructure is not that great. And if it’s being abused even well maintaine dinfrastructure can fail.
Too many coincidences for me.
Whoever sabotaged it certainly is willing to use the German people as a pawn. Not just them freezing this winter, but the job losses their industrial sector will have.
“The Poles have vehemently opposed NordStream from the beginning and have attempted an attack against it before.”
They have? Why were they opposed to it?
A German/Russian alliance is anathema to Poland given both their histories of rolling over the Poles.
Euphemism?
I had forgotten about the incident in 2021 as it didn’t get much Western press at the time.

Huh
They could lose transit fees from an existing pipeline that runs through Poland.
(Natasha Bertrand). Yeah, it smells about the same as Hunter’s laptop.
Under no circumstance do I believe the Russions would intentionally damage the pipelines.
Well, that confirms it, we did it.

Her reason for their cold period seems dubious as fuck to me. They had a falling out because he stood bye a friend she didn’t like? Really? I bet there is something else that caused this falling out, but if she told you that, she wouldn’t be able to pretend victimhood here…
This seems to be a big problem w/ women….
They feel that because they don’t feel like having sex – for whatever reason – their partner’s need for it is wrong…..
But if the dude tells her that he doesn’t want to spend time listening to her bitch about her friends cause he isn’t getting enough poon-tang to make it worth the pain and mental anguish of hours of that same shit every fucking day, she feels justified to be mad at him and accusing him of rape.
Playboy once marketed a magazine to married men.
It had the same centerfold month after month after month after month….
How many months did that magazine stay viable? I figure after about 6 months their would have been some kind of income problem, because all men would have seen the same thing twice in a row and decided to spend their cash on Shwank or Big Ones.
Its a joke
So was my reply, man…
Freedom is slavery, etc.
A professor at the University of North Carolina recently sent me an article on a “free speech event” held at the UNC Center for Media Law and Policy as part of the University’s 13th First Amendment Day celebration. What was striking about the free speech panel was not just that it was decidedly opposed to core free speech principles but it lacked a single panelist who spoke primarily in favor of free speech and against censorship. The panel, “Weaponizing First Amendment Rhetoric,” was clearly designed to offer the opposing view to traditional free speech and First Amendment values, but the lack of a dissenting voices allowed these views to go unchallenged. The panel could have served a more valuable purpose if they had allowed a single panelist to voice opposing views.Overall, the North Carolina “First Amendment Day” celebration seemed more like a condemnation event on the threat posed by free speech. Indeed, it often seemed like a collection of vegans assembled to “celebrate” meat-based diets. One professor even chaffed at the very purpose of the event in celebrating the First Amendment: “what about a Reconstruction Amendment Day? … Why is it that this particular amendment is what takes on outsize concern, both in our imagination on our campuses and in our rhetoric?”
They’re getting more brazen.
Popular speech doesn’t need protection. You only need speech protection for speech that would piss off people that then demand you be silenced from getting their fucking way.
On another note, back in the 60-70s it was the left demanding freedom of speech so they could indoctrinate people with marxist pap. Now these people feel they have the upper hand and want to remove the very same protection that allowed them to get here to prevent their political enemies from using that tool against the campaign of lies the marxist cadre now needs to keep telling to protect their racket.
It’s never that they’re against their targets’ power itself – e.g. the patriarchy, white privilege, slave owners, capitalism, the wealthy – it’s that they’re envious and want that power for themselves. It’s not that The Woke are unprincipled or hypocrites: Power is the principle, neither freedom nor equality. They don’t seek to destroy power but to replace the powerful with themselves, culturally evidenced by the Hollywood Woke re-imagining existing hero characters into woke versions, rather than creating their own original heroes. It’s “Occupy Wall Street” not “Destroy Wall Street.” It’s ok to be racist, so long as you’re not white. Etc.
When you remove objective truth and replace it with postmodernism, power is all you have left to settle disputes. There can be no compromise when there’s nothing to agree on.
Yup…
“My dear friends, I think you are in big trouble. Whether you believe it or not, YOU ARE AT WAR. And you may lose this war very soon, together with all your affluence and freedoms, unless you start defending yourselves. . . . The driving force of this war has very little to do with natural aspirations of people for better lives and greater freedoms. If at all, these aspirations are being used and taken advantage of by the manipulators and progenitors of the war. The real driving force of this war of aggression is IDEOLOGY — something you cannot eat, wear or store for a “rainy day”. An integral part of this war of ideology is IDEOLOGICAL SUBVERSION — the process of changing the perception of reality in the minds of millions of peoples all over the world. The late comrade Andropov, the former head of the Soviet KGB called this war of Communist aggression, “the final struggle for the MINDS and hearts of the people”.”
–Yuri Bezmenov
Funny how much credibility is given to a system that failed so spectacularly.
If you’re referring to the USSR, it did last nearly 70 years. And Marxism/Technocracy is still being tried and utilized in countries today. And it does appear that there is a worldwide struggle between freedom and Marxism/Technocracy, so I’d hardly say their system has failed. But I may be misunderstanding you.
If you’re referring to their “process of changing the perception of reality in the minds of millions of peoples,” well Commie China is still working on it…
https://www.foxnews.com/video/6309696840112
Wow, 70 whole years! In all of human history has there ever been such comparable longevity? And Marxism is dead – it may have some strange offshoots, but the core is deader than that fucking Monty Python parrot.
It’s amazing that they can’t seem to imagine that their opponents might ever be in a position to decide which speech is legitimate and which speech is banned. Or maybe they just stupidly assume they will always be in charge.
Long term thinking is racist.
That is exactly what they [very stupidly] believe.
“we’re on the right side of history!”
They’re all civil rights larpers. They think they’re Rosa Parks.
They’ve always been incredibly short sighted. Same thing with going after Trump. They gave up all due process. It’s easy to imagine the Republicans winning and them using the same anti-Trump tactics on Biden.
They have no problem tearing down institutions to get what they want, and yes they assume it will never come back to haunt them.
It’s easy to imagine the Republicans winning and them using the same anti-Trump tactics on Biden.
They lack the stones and desire. The RINOs/Neocons do, anyway.
I find that hard to imagine. The national Republicans don’t even seem to want to win, or at least not to win big.
They’ll have some hearings, then pass another aid bill for the Ukraine and funding for the FBI.

Great Orange Whale, off the starboard bow
New York Attorney General Leticia James’ office is pushing to take the Trump family to court before the end of 2023.
According to the letter filed by James’ office on Thursday, her team is looking to move fast on its $250 million civil lawsuit against the Trump Organization.
James filed a sprawling case against former President Donald Trump, his three eldest children, and his business on September 21. She has accused the former president of falsely inflating his net worth by billions of dollars and is also looking to bar the Trumps from conducting business in New York.
The letter states that James’ office seeks “an expedited preliminary conference to set a trial date before the end of 2023.”
To the ends of the earth.
Banana. Republic.
That’s a new one.
Gambino Family, OK; Trump family, absolutely not
They also want to ban him from conducting any real estate transaction. Not taking the chance he wants to move back, I guess. I had no idea states could 86 people. I learn something new every day.
Bill of attainder? Corruption of blood?
accused the former president of falsely inflating his net worth by billions of dollars
Because he bloviates about it? Because of some property value assessment that is not his job to confirm?
“This is not political. No one is above the law.” …
Half the Forbes 400 are probably guilty of inflating net worth. And the other half of deflating it.
But those guys ain’t orange.
The NY AG is just racist against orange people.
before the end of 2023
The grinding of the wheels of justice. You have a case, don’t you? Then you should be prepared to go to trial tomorrow. The defense may want more time, but not the plaintiff.
“Sprawling case”. For some reason that makes me think of a wall with lots of red string connecting the dots.
A lot of neurologists on the internet this morning after Tua’s concussion last night. No one knows what the protocol is, but the protocol is lacking!
What’s a Tua? (Seriously… I have zero idea what you’re talking about, CPA…)
Dolphins QB.
Thanks. Being football, I can continue in blissful ignorance.
I’ll even spare y’all a snarky joke about it being hard to pass with those little flippers and all…
Long story but, Dolphins QB took a hit Sunday before halftime. He gets up and stumbles, goes to locker room. He comes back after halftime with a “back injury” and continues playing, beats the Buffalo Bills (a good team) even! He did not have a concussion per the team, he passed the protocol*. The Dolphins have a short week and he plays last night in Cincinnati, takes another hit, this time is stretchered off with a concussion. Everyone is furious because they know for a fact he had a real concussion Sunday and should have been out last night. The protocol* is lacking!
*None of these people know what the protocol is.
Dan Marino didn’t need no protocol. He threw a million yards in a leather helmet.
“Laces out!”
The protocol is to see if he stays awake and doesn’t puke.
Protocol.
Perhaps. It’s kind of a conundrum though. If concussions are so bad, why would it ever be advantageous to quickly get the guy who touches the ball back in on every play? Same guy calls the plays out too.
I don’t know, I’m just an asshat.
I was being a bit facetious because I remember hitting my noggin at home one night and my dad keeping me up most of the night to see if I were going to fall asleep or puke. Well, dad, it’s way past my normal bedtime. How would you know?
Ah gotcha. I was mostly just irritated with all of the armchair neurology this morning (and for making me defend the NFL!).
It looks horrible and I would 100% support Tua retiring if he came out today and said that (perhaps a bit rash). It’s also entirely possible nothing nefarious occurred and the guy just had a series of unfortunate incidents.
When I was a hockey coach we had a bunch of concussion training. Also, the kids did baseline neurological testing before the season started. And this was 10 years ago.
No, they know he had a concussion and didn’t give a shit.
“Given the fact that this action involves allegations of an ongoing scheme and conspiracy to obtain millions of dollars through fraudulent activity, and that defendants repeatedly have sought to delay the conclusion of OAG’s investigation, it is imperative that this case proceed quickly,” wrote Kevin Wallace, senior enforcement counsel and an investigator on the case.
The letter argued for the retention of Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron as the case’s presiding judge, citing his familiarity with the probe. It also stated that the case should “remain before Justice Engoron and not be transferred to the Commercial Division in the interest of judicial economy.”
Wallace’s letter came in response to a request filed by Alina Habba, Trump’s lawyer, on Wednesday to move the case to the New York Supreme Court’s Commercial Division. She also accused the attorney general’s office of trying to prevent the case from being reassigned to another judge.
We don’t want some openminded judge wrecking our show trial.
I just heard a rumor that the reseters are hard at work stealing all the valuables, because a delegation of space alien ambassadors, upon meeting Kamala & Joe told them that if these morons were the leaders of this world, they felt all life in the universe was being insulted by the people that put them in charge, and that instead of sending an invitation committee to talk joining their federation, they are sending a space armada to cleanse the planet of that human rot… Attempts to point out they had “fortified” the election, fell on deaf ears because of the fact the aliens looked at the work of the checkers to find if that was true….

They’re all civil rights larpers. They think they’re Rosa Parks.
They think they are the French Resistance, bravely fighting to overcome Nazi propaganda and disinformatio in order to bring the truth to the people.
In reality, they are the French Committee of Public Safety and can’t wait to go town to town with guillotines to prevent disinformation.
The hilarious part is they have nothing to “resist” – they already control everything.
They are fighting against any who resist.
So I went through Ian, with nothing but a few brownouts. Winds blowing fiercely, rain coming down in a torrent. Nothing bad happened. My power stayed on. Then, while sitting here at my computer a few minutes ago, it goes out for no apparent reason.
I guess Buck Murdock was right. Irony can be pretty ironic sometimes.
Any flooding in your area? I saw that people were wading out of Orlo Vista.
Glad to hear you made it through safely.
Thx, Neph.
Atanarjuat – no, nothing real bad. There’s a storm drain down the road that’s bubbling up water, but it’s near a hill, so there’s no pooling. There’s tree parts all over, but I haven’t seen any trees actually down. Also, got my power back. I’m a little surprised to hear about Orlo Vista, that’s (relatively) close by. OTOH, it’s a relatively flood prone area.
I thought it’d be kind of meh around here, and was pretty much right. I hope it’s even more meh when it goes after KK, and any others in the Carolinas.
Good to know our selfless public servant, Dr. Fauci, is being rewarded for all the sacrifices he’s made.

Was the Dolphns’ QB forced onto the field by the coaching staff? Did they pump him full of drugs to get him upright?
I guess toughness and dedication are in the dustbin of history, along with the rest of western civilization.
No one knows, yet everyone is asserting that they do know.
As far as last night goes, if they didn’t think he was healthy enough I am not sure why they would risk him in a week 3 road game against the AFC Champions from last year. There are 17 games (ugh) so statistically they are likely to lose this one but need him healthy for the long run.
Are we talking about the NFL or the White House?
We did force someone who has had brain surgery into the White House. Fair point.
LOL. Hope you are here all week.

Seriously, read the speech. It’s amazing really.
That’s pretty much the point. Gaslighting is their main tool until they solidify control and are willing to come right out and use the boot without any shame whatsoever.
So the solution is to elect Democratic governors who will “run” their states and affect how votes are counted?
Did they let Joe off the leash again? Much of the speech isn’t even in complete sentences.

Good morning, Banjos.
Ans a good morning to the rest of you.
That’s all I’ve got. I need a weekend.
Good morning Tundra. I missed your comment last night about my hockey schedule. No, I don’t need to you yell at my coach. While part of me is disappointed I’m not playing up this year, another part was hoping I didn’t have to play this first tournament because there’s little chance our team will win any of the games. It will most likely get ugly. I intend on being great in the games I do play, and maybe by the end of the season I’ll move up.
That is a very good attitude.
But I was pretty stoked to light up Coach!
Good luck this season! I can’t wait until y’all make it out this way.
For B team, we tried to start our own league last year, but that fell apart. However, for the rest of our A team trips, the hosts also have a B team, so both teams will travel so we can get games in. This means I should be in Denver early next year regardless of what team I’m playing for.
Nice!
I’ll be there!
Assuming risk is un-American
Hundreds of thousands of Florida homes lie in flood-risk areas that are not designated as such by the federal government, leaving many homeowners vulnerable to massive out-of-pocket costs for damage after Hurricane Ian.
Nearly 350,000 properties in the state face flood hazards but are not recognized as high risks in the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s flood maps, according to data by First Street Foundation, a nonprofit research group.
More than half, about 186,000, are in hard-hit areas along Florida’s west coast, where residents were given mandatory evacuation orders.
“Many very likely will not have flood insurance because they would not have been told they’re at risk for flooding,” said Matthew Eby, First Street Foundation’s CEO. “With a storm of this magnitude, the impacts of that are going to be catastrophic to those homeowners.”
Ian is one of the most powerful storms to hit the United States. After making landfall Wednesday, the Category 4 hurricane decimated many areas, although the full scope of its destruction is still unknown.
Nobody could have identified a hurricane risk to those properties in the absence of a government decree.
THAT’S NOT WHAT IT MEANS!
*autistic rant off*
“By order of the Homeowner’s Association, all residents are required to meet at the ruins of the neighborhood. At this meeting, lots will be drawn and every tenth member will be beaten to death by the others for the overall failure of the association to prepare sufficiently for this incident.”
Patently unfair. First, MAGA supporters should be identified and then one of them chosen to be beaten to death. After all, the hurricane was Trump/DeSantis fault.
Decimation is normally random, but thank your for volunteering to be beaten to death.
Sorry, not a MAGA supporter so I’d be o.k. Unless they beat the libertarians to death first ’cause we are responsible for all the bad things in the world.
Shirley Jackson would like to inform you that you won the lottery!
Not being marked high risk doesn’t mean there’s no risk, dumbass. Wonder what his angle is?
Those properties aren’t eligible for the highest payout of fema lucre
They aren’t paying into the high risk fund and subsidizing actual high risk properties
Not subject to more stringent building codes restrictions or costs, or some other automatic tripwire for high risk designation
“Wonder what his angle is?”
Taxpayer funded bailout, of course.
Now do the Hamptons and Martha’s Vineyard.

Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, told the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack she still believes the 2020 election was stolen from former President Donald Trump.
Thomas made the declaration during a four-hour interview with the committee’s members on Thursday.
That’s got to be very frustrating to know there’s no way they could FORCE her to change her mind.
Muh precious back yard!
Gov. Gavin Newsom signed two laws Wednesday that would open up much of the state’s commercial land for residential development. It’s a long-sought victory for affordable housing advocates, who say such sites are ready-made for apartments because they are often near populated areas and come with ample parking.
“This is a moment on a journey to reconcile the original sin of the state of California, and that’s the issue of housing and affordability,” Newsom said in San Francisco before signing the bills into law. “We need to all be a little bit more accountable to this crisis of affordability.”
Local government officials say the laws undermine their authority and upend years of careful planning that reflect community preferences. But there’s also a financial consequence, they say, because stores generate more property taxes for local governments than homes do.
“It’s a concern when state law is going to override these local decisions, particularly when these local decisions are made in a public process with the community as part of a larger housing plan,” said Jason Rhine, assistant director of legislative affairs for the League of California Cities.
Not even Gavin Newsom can be wrong all the time.
Fuck single use zoning. And planning boards.
*I saw a couple of stories which talked about “conversion” which I took to mean some sort of remodel process, but this one sounds more like levelling the existing structure to build apartments from scratch. Whichever is fine with me.
Whaaa? The original sin of California is racism, just like everywhere else.
Federal power > State power > what local people want.
“levelling the existing structure to build apartments from scratch.”
After it is taken by the state and given to a developer, of course.
And-
Are the planners going to turn the traditional “despoiling the neighborhood” argument on its head and claim letting people live in office parks will destroy the character of the area?
People living in commercial and industrial areas is literally the definition of environmental racism. Unless he right thinking people promote it.
Amusing if true.
Titled Confidence Man: The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America by the New York Times, Clinton believed that Trump was in cahoots with the Russians, planning a secret plot to poison her via a handshake.
“Democrats found themselves almost perpetually disoriented by autumn. During preparations for the third debate, Clinton’s team was disrupted by a warning from the husband of Senator Dianne Feinstein, who said he had been told that Russians might try to poison Clinton through a handshake with Trump, to inflict a dramatic health episode during the debate,” author Maggie Haberman wrote.
The alleged threat came from Richard Blum, the wealthy husband of Sen. Dianne Feinstein, claiming that the Russians wanted Clinton poisoned so that it would “inflict a dramatic health episode during the debate.”

But right-wing terrorism is the biggest threat…
In June, far-left pro-abortion terrorists firebombed a Compasscare pro-life crisis center in Buffalo, New York.
Amherst police reportedly investigated the fire at CompassCare in Eggertsville as arson.
Fire officials say the firebombing caused at least $150,000 worth of damage to the structure, Buffalo News reported.
Jane’s Revenge also took responsibility for vandalizing a DC crisis pregnancy center around that same time.
It has been months since the attack at the pro-life center. The FBI was given the security camera footage but is not investigating this political bombing. Paster James Harden asked for the FBI to return their security camera footage but the FBI refuses to turn it over to the pro-Life group.
Anarcho-tyranny
“Paster James Harden asked for the FBI to return their security camera footage but the FBI refuses to turn it over to the pro-Life group.”
How stupid would you have to be to not keep a copy?
This must be fake news. The abortion terrorists are pro-life, right? Anyone see the new “Law & Order” last night? Pro-life Texas governor’s teen age daughter needs an abortion, can’t get one in Texas, is conducted to NYC by a do-gooder pro-abortion activist. Yada yada. Girl is murdered by her brother. Brave enabler testifies but is murdered on the courthouse steps by a gunman who steps out of the pro-life demonstration. Except for one cynical cop on L&O it is all wok all the time. At least “Blue Bloods” provides some balance.
