That’s all I got for today. I’ll leave you with a song and move along with my day.
I need inflation to drop before the midterms.
I also need to blame small business owners for the consequences of my disastrous policies.
How long before he blurts out “kulaks and wreckers”?
That’s the “MAGA Republicans” which apparently represent a “clear and present danger”.

I guess he thinks that unleashing the strategic oil reserves isn’t going to buy enough votes. Pity.
He probably thinks that we just pump crude oil into our gas tanks. Refinery capacity has nothing to do with supply or prices.
Biden doesn’t think. He is handled. But his handlers know this, they just care about optics and being seen as if they are doing something.
This way they can blame 0bScEeeen PrOfits!!! for all of our financial woes.
I wish he’d ask Dow Jones to raise the industrial average while he’s babbling nonsensically.
I wonder what Jill wishes he could still raise?

NPR was using Unicorn Riot as a news source.

Well, they ARE the foremost expert on how the Proud Boys and Patriot Front are swarming peaceful antifa protests and bringing violence to noble BLM demonstrations.
Seriously. And also as part of the story they were horrified at the inexcusable ignorance of the state police not knowing that Patriot Front was a hate group. At some point “there’s nothing wrong with repeating a lie, as long as you didn’t originate it” became standard journalismist practice.
You have to appreciate their persistent clinging to the labor theory of value.
Oh yes, a thousand guys digging a trench with spoons contribute so much more value than one guy with a backhoe clearing it in hours instead of weeks.
“not valuing what Occupy Democrats does”
No doubt trashing a park and shitting on the sidewalk next to it, is hard work.
Meh, I can understand wanting to oust Madison Cawthorn. As far as crazy members go, he seemed to be less successful than MTG, and the crippled vet bit wasn’t working as criticism armor.
His mistake was spilling the beans on the coke orgies attended by elected officials from both parties, and selected aides.
iirc, he’s not a vet. Was in a car accident.
While driving to attend an orgy?
I think he was a vet who was crippled driving to an emergency situation where a dog had been poisoned
“Biden demands gas stations slash prices at the pump: ‘Do it now’”
OK, comrade Maduro, we’ll get right on that.
The only question in my mind is what other batshit crazy shenanigans the Biden administration is going to pull between now and November.
October is starting to scare me a little.
October is starting to scare me a little.
Home Depot has their largest chest freezer at 40% off through I think tomorrow. Just saying.
Do you have a dedicated windmill to power it?
Does it get much crazier than destroying a couple pipelines in the Baltic Sea?
Yes, Brandon says hold my beer, nuclear war with Russian is more crazy, Jack.
Biden’s actions both domestically and internally are the most reckless of any president since…I don’t really know when. It is absolutely comical that this is coming from the administration that touted how the “adults” were back in the room. I have avoided the talk about us being on the brink of war with Russia, but after they attacked those pipelines they really have put us closer to that than at anytime since the Cuban missile crisis. And at home, we are one indictment of Trump away from the system losing all legitimacy in the eyes of half the country. The 2020 election wasn’t quite enough for some of them.
Not only his actions, but he keeps opening his yap and saying the dumbest things. He’s the president of the US, he’s got the bully pulpit, and people actually listen to what he says. Well maybe not so much now. Even Trump didn’t have dozens of people telling us what he “meant” to say on a daily basis.
All of our current problems are self-inflicted.
“what other batshit crazy shenanigans the Biden administration is going to pull between now and November.”
Oh, I dunno, send Hunter Biden’s crack dealer, Zelensky a boat load more tax payer dollars? Sabotage Russian pipelines and starve Europeans of fuel to heat their homes this winter? Start a nuclear war with Russia? Brandon says ‘Hold my beer, Jack!’.
But – No. Mean. Tweets!!!!
“A winter of death for the unvaccinated” was kind of mean… just saying.
…and kind of incorrect.
October is starting to scare me a little.
Just wait for the surprise. It’ll be nuclear.
Boo! An extra special scary Halloween!

Sure would be nice if maybe we had elected officials who had spent even 10 minutes in the private sector. My guess is that Biden’s lifeguard job was also a govt job and not a private pool.
Completely. His entire crew seems unacquainted with economic reality.

Morning, Banjos.
Not too many co-workers in the office yet, but a bunch o emails.
Morning everyone. I am officially outside the cone of sorrow. Anyone on the southwest side of the state, be safe and let me know if I can help afterwards. Seriously, if you need someone to help you rake leaves, whatever. I’m going to spend the next two days trapped in a house with 4 kids. Give me an excuse.
I am going to need someone to step up the Firsting in my absence around here.
*wet spot forms on front of pants*
Am I doing it right?
trapped inside the house
Countdown to L5 begins. At some point those 4 kids are all going to take a nap at the same time. All kids napping at the same time is the most powerful aphrodisiac in the universe.
I’m almost bummed nothing happened here. I know it’s still incoming, but seems like we will also be missing the worst.
When I was young, the world was a more innocent place. We were warned about razor blades in Halloween candy.
Take your haul to the station for an x-ray.
If you had saved those razor blades like a good kid, you’d have something now to chop those free drugs up into lines with.
This goes along with the reports of gastrointestinal bleeding in nursing infants whose mothers took the vaccines.
Yeah, but just think how much worse it would have been for the nursing infants if not for the vax!
Also, does it count as a vax for the infants?
COVID Vaccines Detected In 45% Of Breast Milk
Not in my house. I got the clotshot because I was being pressured in order to keep my job. But wife and I had a discussion. Theres just too many risks and unknowns for her to get it, especially since she was pregnant when they really started pushing it hard.
When we got sick a few months ago, she did have it slightly worse than me, with the fatigue and taste loss, but she also recovered a lot quicker. I got stuck with lingering bronchitis that took a ZPack to get rid of. Cowpoke was fine in like 2 days.
In the end we both feel we made the right decision. A family friend vsccinated her babies and plans on giving them boosters. Thats crazy to me, but to each their own, I guess.
It is crazy.
x 1,000
Fucking idiots.
Wife and I were in Walgreens yesterday. There was a long line of people wearing cloth masks there waiting for Covid booster shots. These people are institutionalized and will line up like sheep, still wearing their cloth masks, to get in the train cars.
I talked to an Asian friend in Houston, she got the flu shot yesterday but said no Covid boosters. She said many still wearing masks, including her, all store employees, etc.
She was shocked, shocked tell you, when I told her that we never got the flu shot, ever, and skipped all the covid hysteria. It’s tough for me to understand that so many that escaped post 1975 communism are concerned about catching a cold. Elderly people…I don’t know…
The other end of the Women and Rona fun… New study says Rona shots did affect women’s periods
Shut up with your whining! We are telling you that the shots are 100% totes OK.
Sadly this will be the shit that has the most impact on turning the public on the Rona shots:
Wait? The Rona shots are bad for trans, nonbinary and indigenous people? STOP EVERYTHING!
I also think that my new go to response for why I haven’t gotten boosted will be: “I’m concerned about the effects the shots have had on the periods for many men”
I dare them to push back on that!
“5 migrant buses arrive in NYC as Mayor Adams’ tent city construction begins. More than 10,000 migrants have been bussed since April from Texas to New York City, which has a right-to-shelter law requiring the city to house anyone in need. ”
Dumb rethuglicans, now the real Americans in NYC who are totally not trying to relocate to FL, are going to have people to now their lawns! Oh wait, they don’t have any lawns…
I’m sure some could use a nanny or cleaner.
They’ll have to pay those and claim it on their taxes.
I like how the tent city is going up about as far as humanly possible from city residents and still within the city.
That’s only because the rethuglicans who control NYC are forcing them to do so. C’mon rhywun, don’t you still live there? Are you even able to go outside without being chased down the street by a mob of Ultra MAGAs in full Nazi attire?
That made me laugh. Running away from people who can goose step at 12 miles per hour.
“I can hear them! They’re right behind us!”

“Researchers sampled breast milk for five days post vaccination, and trace amounts were detected in seven samples belonging to five different participants.”
Is drinking trace amounts harmful?
All FDA approved vaccines are good for you, mmkay?
Medications never have side effects or adverse reactions.
Not any that I have ever heard of yet, according to the AMA. Like mama’s breast milk used to be, back in the old days before it was full of industrial contaminants from prescription meds and FDA approved vaccines.
Is it FDA approved?
Regardless, I have trouble seeing more eating tiny amounts of RNA could do anything.
What we should do is start a government agency to investigate the safety of drugs so that we could know those kinds of things with certainty.
Everyone there would probably end up getting bribed by big pharma until the whole agency was worthless.
It was an emergency, there’s a pandemic raging all around you!
I thought the whole point of this vaccine was that the rna hijacked a cell to pump out gobs of spike protein. Perhaps one strand of RNA entering one cell isn’t enough to create an enough spike protein to cause an adverse reaction, but I don’t know enough to weigh in on that.
It raises the question of whether they were testing for mRNA in breastmilk or the spike protein.
It sounds like they were testing for the former. But the real damage is coming from the spike protein.
Nursing babies aren’t getting it straight into their cells though, they’re eating it. I’m sure every time we eat plants or sushi we’re eating uncooked mRNA in the tissues of those organisms. The mRNA is then subjected to all the acidity and enzymes of the digestive process. Still, I wouldn’t want this experimental shit in my baby’s milk just in case.
The concern that I would want more info on is whether it can breach the digestive barriers. If it can breach the brain blood barrier, the placental barrier, and the [whatever it’s called] barrier to get into milk, it wouldn’t shock me if it could get into esophageal cells and work its way to a blood vessel.
I guess it’s still better than drinking formula.
Biden fixed that too by making formula hard to get.
https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/the-data-says-you-should-never-breast?r=itux0&utm_medium=ios
IIRC we were assured that the mRNA would stay clustered around the injection site and not disperse through the rest of the body. If the mRNA is showing up in breast milk, then the mRNA is spreading out, and consequently potentially causing organ cells (heart, lungs, etc) to generate spike proteins.
There is a lot of conclusive research showing the mRNA goes—and stays—in the liver, the ovaries, and a few other choice locales.
There are also new reports coming out from medical doctors and medical examiners (doing autopsies) finding blood clots that can be inches long in which the spike proteins have interlinked with one another and also have had the spikes stick into blood vessel walls.
The spike protein itself is the damage mechanism. There will never again be a vaccination enter my body.
In one of the myriad sources, I saw a hypothesis that the action of the immune system against the spike protein produces amyloid fibers, which would result in those stringy clots. This could also be described as the proteins interlinking.
Inmate serving life sentence for murder escapes from Nevada prison
Why is a convicted murderer in only a “medium-security” prison?
Prisons are overpopulated. What do you want us to do, let out dangerous marijuana addicts?
I know this is snark, but when I lived in Pennsylvania, this is exactly what was happening.
He’s hiding out in a casino walking around with weapons of war, where security cameras will never see him until after he’s done shot up a music concert across the street.
Ugh. I drive by that joint regularly. There are “No Hitchhiking” signs along the local highway.
Dude is probably in Pahrump even now.
It’s probably the DEA behind the candy a la Fast and Furious. Why would drug producers spend all that money producing fake candy to potentially kill people (customers). None of it makes any sense. But people lap it up.
Adulterated product costs less, and since the customer has no legal recourse, there’s little incentive not to kill your customer.
You two are proof why we cannot support dangerous libertarian types like you and that Rand Paul guy. You support letting dangerous marijuana pushers on to our playgrounds.
Heroin is based on repeat business.
This. And news media is based on scare tactics.
But who’s buying it and why is it getting into typical product streams? This is described as something potentially widespread (which I doubt). To what end? Someone is supposedly giving it away.
My guess is a scare tactic like the razor blades in candy that seemed to pop up regularly. Mostly to keep people afraid and prove the DEA’s worth.
It was probably disguised as candy for smuggling purposes.

The Jones Act Strands Hurricane Aid in Puerto Rico
So cartoon villain Trump grants a waiver of the Jones Act to reduce suffering after a hurricane on Puerto Rico, and Congress tightens the requirements to waive the Act. Just plain dump.
Precisely.
On September 11th, 2022 the Army Of The First established an elite school for the top one percent of its Firsters. Its purpose was to teach the lost art of Firsting without highspeed internet and to insure that the handful of men who graduated were the best fighting Firsters in the world.
They succeeded.
Today, the Navy calls it Fighting Firster School. The Firsters call it:

“We haven’t seen the lower prices reflected at the pump though. Meanwhile, oil and gas companies are still making record profits — billions of dollars in profit,” the president said Monday.
“My message is simple. To the companies running gas stations and setting those prices at the pump: Bring down the prices you’re charging at the pump to reflect the cost you pay for the product.”
That’s not how this works.
It’s how it works to a wannabe dictator.

IRS Sent Out Over $1 Billion In Child Tax Credit Payments To The Wrong People

On Tucker Carlson’s show last night he played clips of both Biden and Victoria Nuland threatening to stop the flow of the Nord Stream pipeline. It strains credulity that Russia would sabotage their own pipeline and starve themselves of its revenue. This is a psychotically reckless act which might escalate into a third world war.
Next time some Democrat tries to lecture me about the importance of upholding “norms” I’m going to roll my eyes so hard it will affect the tides.
Next time you are called a “domestic terrorist” it will be by an actual terrorist.
It strains credulity that Russia would sabotage their own pipeline and starve themselves of its revenue
Never mind that it removes their bargaining chip. Also never mind that they don’t need to destroy it because they can just close the spigot.
might escalate into a third world war.
Which is likely the goal. What better way to kill off millions (billions?) for the Great Reset than a nuclear holocaust?
If Russia did it, it would undermine their credibility with other customers while they’re seeking long-term partners in the energy business. It would be beyond stupid.
It’s entirely possible that Russia did it as a false flag. They can use it as a way to drive a wedge between citizens in the West and their governments, especially given the statements by Biden and Noodleman.
He’s not wrong that Russia has no motive. Even as a false flag attack, I think Russia is way down the list of suspects.
He does a lot of dancing around “I can’t accuse the Biden administration” while presenting all the reasons he thinks the Biden administration did it.
As I see it the question is, who benefits the most? And, the simplest explanation is most likely the correct explanation.
Those who benefit most obviously: war mongers in the west, who want to reduce the chances of a negotiated peace; and alternate providers of gas and oil. The US sits in both camps, but also (some) Ukrainians, UK, Norway, others. Chances it was China and North Korea are vanishingly small.
AT LONG LAST, THE CHESS DRAMA IS OVER.
Okay, not that chess drama. A couple of weeks ago, on a podcast, Fabiano Caruana (the top ranked US player) promised Eric Rosen he would play the Stafford Gambit in the online Titled Tuesday tournament. Last week, he reneged, saying that after analyzing, it was just losing to every move by white. After a week of pressure, yesterday he sacked up and played it. And won.
Quote from Rosen: “This makes me so happy. I guilt-tripped one of the best players in the world to play a really bad opening.”
Eric is an International Master (level below Grand Master) and youtuber, who has made a bunch of videos about the Stafford. It is a dubious opening, at best. But very trappy to the unsuspecting opponent.
Ginger tits would have taken up the challenge that afternoon and celebrated victory by dinner.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy reportedly worked to sink the re-election campaign of Madison Cawthorn while trying to weed out “controversial Republicans” who might cause disruptions to his agenda.

Book review: “Hitler’s National Socialism” by Rainer Zitelmann (Part 1)
https://iea.org.uk/book-review-hitlers-national-socialism-by-rainer-zitelmann-part-1/
“Since this renewed interest in fascism has been preceded by a revival of socialism as a popular mainstream ideology, it is perhaps unsurprising that most of the new self-declared “anti-fascists” see fascism through a Marxist lens. The orthodox Marxist perspective is that fascism is not a system or an ideology in its own right, but simply the most brutal form of capitalism. In this interpretation, liberal democracy is the form that capitalism takes when the ruling class feels secure in its position, and can afford a few superficial niceties, such as democratic elections and civil liberties. Fascism, on the other hand, is the form that capitalism takes when the ruling class feels under threat, and lashes out – it is capitalism with the gloves off.
One problem with the Marxist perspective has always been that Hitler’s rhetoric was often stridently anti-capitalist. The way Marxists usually deal with this is by dismissing it as a mere rhetorical trick. They argue that when Hitler railed against capitalism, he never believed a word of it; he just tried to deceive working-class voters, who supported the Communist Party (KPD) or the Social Democrats (SPD). But actions speak louder than words: once in office, Hitler viciously persecuted socialists
Some people on the political Right, meanwhile, have been more willing to take the “socialism” in “national socialism” at face value, arguing that “national socialism” really was a variant of socialism. They point out that in actual practice, there were some striking similarities between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union.
Yes, Hitler persecuted socialists – but so did Stalin, and so would future socialist regimes. It’s what those in control of socialist states do once they are in power: they kill other socialists.
Then there’s the liberal interpretation, which sees fascism as meaningfully different from socialism, but which sees both as different versions of collectivism, which have more in common with each other than either has with laissez-faire individualism. They point out that while the Nazi economy was not state-run, it was heavily state-directed.”

Two explosions were recorded before the leaks were detected, with the first explosion occurring early Monday, followed by a second, stronger explosion that night that was equal to a 2.3 magnitude earthquake, according to the Associated Press.
This is exactly the sort of thing Navy Seals train to do.
And Russian Navy folks too. The Ukes could have hired some undersea pipeline dudes to do a little “reverse maintenance”, I am not sure if the UK could pull this off, but probably. I am less sure of France. The Scandis or Poles, not seeing it.
I am going to be reckless and rush to….wait and see what we find out. I can only hope the same folks that have sussed out all the activity in the Black Sea (pointing out that the Moskva did in fact sink, reminding the Ukes that the missile frigate they claimed to sink had gone through the Straits of Kerch a few hours before, etc) can do a little digging to see if any “exploration vessels” or “maintenance ships” were in the vicinity at relevant times (the Ukrainian version of the old “Russian Fishing Trawler” that always happened to be around every USN base, NASA site, etc).

They would have bragged about it.
I can tell you Romania is off the hook
*squints suspiciously*
OK….this time.

I am going to be reckless and rush to….wait and see what we find out.
But Russian to conclusions is way more fun.
He just want the investigation to be Finnish.
*narrows gaze*
Why would Russia do this? 1. The pipeline is a source of revenue for them. 2. They could just shut it off if they wanted to mess with Europe? I guess they could use it as propaganda and blame the US or Ukraine but that’s a lot of money to lose for propaganda.
Why would Russia do this – have reason to claim Nato directly attacked their infrastructure ?
You all are forgetting China, North Korea, Israel, or France there are many options.
Then there are the non-state actors such as the US and other countries oil and gas companies.
North Korea does not have that kind of reach. France has no reason to do so. Israel…why? China…that is a stretch for their Navy, but I suppose they could.
I’m being as serious as every other theory being touted.
North Korea: Has a submarine fleet however shitty. Possible means, motive could be made that it destabilizes their enemies.
France: Definitely has the means. Has the least to loose and the most to gain from a loss of Nat Gas as they are mostly supplied by Nuke energy. Motive, they could take a grater role and control in the EU over Germany and drive the chaos to a favorable position for France.
Israel: Likely has the means, motive is shaky
China: Has the means with a submarine and underwater drone capability. Has plenty of motive as it destabilizes nearly all of their currency rivals and allows lower pricing to them for Nat gas. There is not a good motive from a exporter’s economic perspective, but certainly from a war monger military’s perspective. Rumors last week about a very serious upper CCP conflict and possible Coup in China.
What I’m saying is there are a lot of possible reasons. some make sense, some make as much sense as Russia sabotaging their own pipeline. The US makes as much or less sense than China.
We are also forgetting the crab people of middle earth, Blue whales, and the Atlanteans.
The US as a culprit makes vastly more sense than China. It starves the funding for the Russian war machine that the US is fighting in its proxy war. It makes Germany more dependent on shipments of US-sourced LNG. It punishes Germany for announcing it will slow weapons delivery to the proxy war.
That is why the Ukes are the ones I am leaning toward.
Don’t sleep on the UK.
I don’t think we know if it was sabotage for sure yet. If it was, the lack of subtlety has me leaning away from the US or UK.
The fact that we all can see that the US is one country with the most capability to pull this off doesn’t make it the most likely to commit the act.
The Russian war machine is still starving and would still starve without the US committing one of the most blatant acts of war against a friendly nation I could conceive of.
If this was a preemptive strike against all of the EU by the US to make them poor and freeze to death to ensure that they don’t pay Russians for their gas, that is movie level motivation. It would be much easier and less messy for the US to directly supply weapons’ to the Ukraine in the open than have our allies in NATO do it. NATO = USA for all intents and purposes.
In addition, I can’t believe that the CIA would perform this act without some other more likely suspect as a patsy. If they did it there would have been some blatant electronic intelligence and faked or real hard evidence nearly immediately to implicate a third party or country.
I’m open to being wrong, but I hope I’m not. Something like this could unravel all of our alliances and cause an incredible level of chaos in the world.
I have not heard of any possible natural or mechanical explanations for these issues. Could the pipeline burst due to some pressure shock at either end?
Gee, I don’t know. Fading superpower with a spectacular history of proxy fuckery across like 128 countries since 1990?
Who the fuck knows. Regardless of whoever did this, our “leadership” wants war and they want it soon.
The bottom line seems to be that it would be brain-dead stupid for just about anybody to do this. Given that as a baseline, I lean toward the CIA/US.
Regardless of whoever did this, our “leadership” wants war and they want it soon.
This. This is the real takeaway. It could’ve been SEA SMITH who did it, but the pending horrible responses by Russia and by the US are going to be each party’s respective responsibility.
Patrick Duffy?
Must be decades since I though of Man from Atlantis
I keep thinking about fishing trawlers dragging their anchors and undersea fiber optic cables… haven’t most of the strange severings of those been stupid mistakes like that?
“I tell you, Georg… we keep going very slow after we let Sven pull up the anchor.”
“I thought *you* told him to pull up the anchor!”
Probably outside the realm of possibility (since I would hope the pipeline is much more sturdy), but there are a lot of fishing trawlers running around the Baltic and North sea areas, so it leaps to mind.
That doesn’t explain the explosions, as posted above: Two explosions were recorded before the leaks were detected, with the first explosion occurring early Monday, followed by a second, stronger explosion that night that was equal to a 2.3 magnitude earthquake, according to the Associated Press.
Pipelines are designed to be armored against anchor hits.
Though it might be breached by repeated strikes to the same location over an extended period of time. But that’s what inspections are for. The pipline was regularly inspected, wasn’t it?
It was brand new – and there were 3 separate ruptures.
The Poles have the capability to do it and they have been getting feisty with the Germans and Russians lately. Now most of what’s left of the flow of gas from Russia to Germany goes through Poland.
I don’t suspect Norway – but they could have done it. They are going to make a lot of money as a result.
There are tons of listening, radar, and sonar stations in that area – but I doubt anyone is looking too hard for the culprits. Like the FBI investigating Antifa.
WHY WON’T YOU RUBES SHUT UP ABOUT ELECTION IRREGULARITIES????!!!!
Uffda. This is going to make it much harder to stuff that ballot box. All those “found” ballots are going to have to be redone.

The last couple of days has seen an explosion of videos and commentary about the Russian election in Ukraine to annex part of Ukraine. Armed soldiers going door to door to collect ballots. Suspicious turnout and margins. Everyone says they are a sham…..
And…
Do you think any of these people who crow about the most secure and fair election in history will notice that there are some uncomfortable comparisons with these Russian elections to the most secure election ever?
Somehow I doubt it… But they did use features that are universally rejected in secure and secret elections around the world… Things that look very familiar to the American electorate.
As I’ve noted before, nearly every facet of US elections is now conducted in a manner that the US condemns when countries we don’t like do it.
A buddy of mine has been an election observer in Bosnia, Ukraine and Tajikistan. Some of the things they look for are voter intimidation and someone submitting multiple ballots. For example, in Tajikistan there was a site with 3 booths, but everyone was lined up at one booth because that’s where the village enforcer was making sure everyone was voting the right way. In Bosnia the man of the house wanted to submit votes for all members of the family. Mail in voting enables these things.

No state in the eastern U.S. has grown faster in recent years than Florida, which has added nearly 3 million residents since 2010.
Now, the state is yet again in the path of a major hurricane, with Hurricane Ian expected to make landfall on Florida’s western coast Wednesday. It is now classified as a Category 4 storm, according to the National Hurricane Center.
Tampa, Fort Myers and Sarasota – all among the state’s fastest growing metropolitan areas – are within the range of predicted paths, the NHC said. Ian may bring a “life threatening storm surge, catastrophic winds and flooding in the Florida peninsula,” the hurricane center said in it’s 5 a.m. ET update.
More people — and more buildings to house them, often in coastal areas — mean that a major hurricane could become more costly and destructive.
The population boom in hurricane-prone Florida is an example of the “expanding bullseye effect,” said Stephen Strader, a professor at Villanova University who studies how human environments are vulnerable to natural disasters.
Those people never should have left New York.

(I’m not knocking secretaries, I miss when we had the aid of one. I do not know these processes half as well as they did.)
(To clarify, though performing a vital function, the EA was not a manager and did not need management/leadership skills for the job, so it was a direct response to Pie’s observation.)
Back when I had the misfortune of reviewing candidates, bullshit was a fast track to reject. I even caught a few obvious lies, which was unfortunate for one candidate who looked good on paper and interviewed well for the targeted area but clearly lied about other experience.

We should get back to traditional human family values, along with the very natural warm acceptance and celebration of gender and sexual diversity that is most authentic to human beings. Families should have the opportunity to come in all of their various, beautiful human shapes and sizes.

Let’s get really traditional. Let’s make families about kinship again.

No other possible reasons?
Because nowhere else on the Gulf or Eastern seaboard are people vulnerable to hurricanes.

How physics in the USSR was saved from ideology
https://hxstem.substack.com/p/how-physics-in-the-ussr-was-saved
At the end of 1948, preparations began for the All-Union Conference of Heads of Departments of Physics, scheduled for March 21, 1949, with the aim of an ideological pogrom in physics on the basis of the idealism of quantum mechanics and Einstein’s relativity, which allegedly defied Marxist philosophic principles. The campaign was instigated by second-rate physicists, near-science administrators, “philosophers,” Communist party apparatchiks, and other zealots.
“Is it true that quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity should be banned because of their idealistic, bourgeois and anti-Marxist nature?”
Kurchatov replied “If they are banned, then the bomb will have to be abandoned.”
In response, Beria said that the most important thing is THE bomb, and everything else is nonsense.
Too bad agriculturalists werent working on the bomb.
Scott Adams has his snark turned up to 10 today. He’s comparing the idea of Russia blowing up its own pipelines to the sheriff putting a gun to his own head in Blazing Saddles. And he’s calling the video of Biden clearly stating they’d shut down the pipelines as a crazy conspiracy theory.
So what is his theory? Accident?
Someone in from the west protecting their own energy interests. Judging from the sarcasm, definitely not Russia.
Here is a theory: unbeknown Russia and the US both attacked the pipelines at the same time in different places, some some explosions are US some are Russia.

Salvation is at hand
The Biden administration is proposing that nutrition labels go on the front of food packages rather than the back. It’s part of a strategy to end hunger and diet-related diseases in America in eight years — some 40 pages of ideas to try to make the nation healthier.
The White House unveiled the plan ahead of a conference on hunger, nutrition and health being held in Washington on Wednesday — the first of its kind since 1969, a when a similar effort sparked programs like food stamps.
——-
The White House is buying into the idea of using food as medicine. It wants Congress to pass legislation for pilot programs that would cover medically tailored meals for people who are on Medicare, and to expand access to nutrition and obesity counseling for people on Medicare and Medicaid.
The administration also wants to encourage private health insurance companies to cover medically tailored meals and more nutrition services.
All the school children in America will begin their day by singing “Biden loves me, this I know, for the Constitution tells me so”.
a strategy to end hunger and diet-related diseases in America in eight years
Lololololol.
They’ll have a cure for the ‘beetus in eight years? Really? Someone wrote this with a straight face?
Nah, anything with ‘too much’ sugar will be banned from food stamp purchases.
Food manufacturers will be able to buy a certification of acceptable sugar levels for a slight fee, payable to the certifying officer.
anything with ‘too much’ sugar will be banned from food stamp purchases.
That’s actually a good idea?
Turns out people are buying the wrong foods with their food stamps. Let’s flush a few more trillion dollars down the toilet and see if we can get it right this time.
Probably not a coincidence that everyone got fatter when the government became more involved in nutrition.
There is also a certain correlation between the decline in smoking and the increase in obesity.
I don’t recall smokers being less fat than non-smokers.

The White House says it wants the Food and Drug Administration to conduct research and propose new rules for nutrition labels to go on the front of food packages. The system should “quickly and easily communicate nutrition information … such as star ratings or traffic light schemes to promote equitable access to nutrition information and healthier choices, and can also prompt industry to reformulate their products to be healthier,” the White House said in its strategy.
And the, they will ask in wonderment why the landfills are piled high with unsold, unopened packages of healthy food.
Just make it mandatory that all food be healthy! Why do I have to be the one thinking all of this up?!?

Act of God
But a mysterious gas leak that occurred Tuesday on the Nord Stream 1 natural gas pipeline that runs from Russia to Europe is raising concern about how the Kremlin will lash out as it falters in Ukraine.
Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, called the gas leak “sabotage”.
“Paramount to now investigate the incidents, get full clarity on events and why,” she tweeted. “Any deliberate disruption of active European energy infrastructure is unacceptable and will lead to the strongest possible response.”
Secretary of State Antony Blinken, speaking during a press conference earlier on Tuesday, said the U.S. had not yet confirmed initial reports of an attack or sabotage.
“Now, my understanding is the leaks will not have a significant impact on Europe’s energy resilience, and what’s critical is that we are working day in, day out both on a short-term basis and a long-term basis to address energy security for Europe and, for that matter, around the world,” he said.
Just a bizarre coincidence. A fluke of engineering.Meanwhile, we stand ready to divert gas from American customers.
“BREAKING: Clinic featured at child trans summit sends legal demand to Post Millennial to censor our reporting
Children’s Minnesota demanded that the article be deleted. They did not want the video of the panel where clinicians discussed the medical and therapeutic gender transition of young children to be exposed to the public.
The Post Millennial wrote about the World Professional Association for Transgender Health conference in Montreal, Quebec, in September. We wrote about the panels at that conference, and what clinicians and activists were saying on those panels, including one on “Navigating The Changing Landscape With Littles And Their Families: Exploring The Role Of Mental Health Across Different Practice Settings With Transgender And Gender Diverse Pre-Adolescent Children.”
As a result, The Post Millennial received a legal demand from Children’s Minnesota, which publically available information states is the seventh largest pediatric health system in the United States, and advertises as “The Kid Experts.””

“Trans health providers for ‘littles’ explain why kids should be transitioned without mental health treatment
“The pathology is not being trans; the pathology is the transphobia that the kids and their families are winding through the world with,” said Kerry McDonald, a therapist with a private practice in California. “So we’re there as a mental health support if that causes really normal stress.”
A consultation team of Minnesota mental health professionals that treat pre-pubescent children who have been led to believe they are transgender got together on the first full day of sessions at the 2022 WPATH conference, to discuss their experiences helping these children on their “gender journey.” Dr. Rachel Levine was the keynote speaker at the conference.
In a session called “Navigating The Changing Landscape With Littles And Their Families: Exploring The Role Of Mental Health Across Different Practice Settings With Transgender And Gender Diverse Pre-Adolescent Children,” they discussed the various therapeutic approaches to dealing with these children, whom they refer to as “the littles”. These “littles” are often as young as three years old. Many of them, they said, are perfectly fine and don’t need mental health treatment before being socially and medically transitioned.”
https://thepostmillennial.com/watch-trans-health-providers-for-littles-explain-why-kids-should-be-transitioned-without-mental-health-treatment
That they are calling children “littles” is creep af.
I am usually hesitant to use the “evil” label on people, but these evil monsters deserve it.
The pathology is not being trans
Yes, it is. And by their own terms, too. If its not a pathology, why does it need treatment?
The more I am exposed to “trans,” the more I believe that for the vast majority of girls, it’s a desire to remain hidden and/or their conditioning that liking “boy stuff” actually means they’re a boy. I’m coming to believe that for a vast majority of men, it’s autogynephilia.

Re: US blowing up the pipelines. (I posted this in a dead thread and wanted to bring it forward just to cause trouble).

We might not immediately conclude you did “X”, but you sure as shit would be among any sane, reasonable investigator’s prime suspect. And we’d be asking for alibis, checking your phone records, etc.

The BALTOPS-22 6th Fleet exercise in June, right down the street from where it happened, could never have been a cover story to allow SEALs to use an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) to test some new toys, put everything in place to make boom-boom if it became necessary.
COMPLETE CO-INKY-DINK.
I still don’t get the credulity and sensibility that people project onto Fascists who have (a) rigged elections, (b) faked a pandemic, (c) locked people in their homes, (d) targeted and collapsed small businesses, (e) sent infected elderly people back into homes that undoubtedly killed thousands more, (f) faked a FISA warrant, (g) tried to overthrow an elected President, etc, etc.
They would NEVER RISK DOING SOMETHING LIKE THIS!!1!1!
Eventually, the Normies will come to see. It’ll be too late, if it already isn’t.
Right?
And ten there’s this.
I had the same thought about BALTOPS, but I don’t know, technologically, how realistic it is that we could place charges in deep water, leave them there for months and then reliably remote detonate them.
How it would be legal for the US to blow up the pipeline? No war was declared.
How quaint.
😉
I’m thinking this could be used for Biden’s third or fourth impeachment.
ONLY in politics does the happening of “A” immediately produce media explanations about why it MUST BE someone other than the politician MFer who explicitly threatened to do it.
This is bizarre to me too. Biden explicitly said we would do it. Seems like you have to go through mental contortions to put the cause elsewhere.
It’s like, I threaten to kill my neighbor’s dog if my petunias get dug up again. Petunias get dug up, dog is dead the next day.
“IT COULDN’T POSSIBLY BE ME!1!!1!”
(Act insulted, indignant, and smugly condescending at anyone who could possibly suggest I might be a likely cause.)

Yes and yes.

Just got an email from a Brit car parts place. A brand new Healey alyoumineeum cylinder head is almost $600 less (in USD) than is was this day last year. Over 20% less.
On the other hand, yesterday day I paid $15 for a five-pound bag of flour.
Can you eat cylinder heads?
And for my next shitposting…!
On breast feeding and mRNA –
“Just think of how bad it would have been if I hadn’t gotten the shot…”
I’m sure it’s NOTHING to do with the SAFE and EFFECTIVE mRNA shots that have always showed problems in animal studies in the past and is why they could never get green-lighted to conduct human trials.

The chocolate ration has been increased
Consumer confidence rose for a second straight month in September, as moderating gas prices and the hope that inflationary pressures might be easing helped lift the nation’s collective mood.
The Conference Board reported on Tuesday that its baseline index rose to 108 from a revised 103.6 in August, the highest it has been since April.
The monthly survey found that Americans are feeling less pessimistic in both their assessment of current conditions and their outlook for the future. The Present Situation Index portion of the survey rose from 145.3 to 149.6. The Expectations Index, which is based on the short-term economic outlook, rose from 75.8 to 80.3.
The reading comes as welcome news, since the consumer outlook lately has been buffeted by the growing fear of an economic downturn. Last Thursday, the Conference Board said its Leading Economic Index notched its sixth consecutive drop, which the organization’s senior director of economics said is “potentially signaling a recession.” The index provides visibility into a range of economic activity, ranging from jobs to manufacturing to markets.
Praise Biden. His omniscient stewardship of the nation will save us.
Last Thursday, the Conference Board said its Leading Economic Index notched its sixth consecutive drop, which the organization’s senior director of economics said is “potentially signaling a recession.”
Fuck these lackeys. We are in a recession and have been for months.
Our cultural revolution continues apace.
“We want to make this a national monument to the ‘Invisible Founders,’” said the Rev. Larry Walker, a trustee at Montpelier, the home of James Madison, father of the Constitution, in announcing plans to build a national slavery monument right on the grounds of Madison’s home. The Montpelier board is planning on a massive scale: “Our memorialization project is not going to be limited to a bench and a plaque,” Walker declared, as the board compared the projected monument to the Lincoln Memorial. If this thing is built, future visitors to Montpelier will come away with one overwhelming message: James Madison was an evil man who enslaved other human beings.
Board chairman James French showed the photo of the Lincoln Memorial in order “to illustrate…our desire to create a national monument for the legacy of those who were enslaved.” Montpelier CEO Elizabeth Chew said that the plan for a national slavery monument was one of “big future projects” planned for Montpelier. The board announced its big monument plans on Sept. 17 at a little-noticed panel session (the video of the session has all of 91 views as of this writing), “Equal Power-Sharing at Montpelier,” at the mansion’s David M. Rubenstein Visitor Center. The New York Post has noted that David M. Rubenstein, who got the visitor center named after himself by donating millions to Montpelier, is “on the boards of the globalist World Economic Forum, China’s Tsinghua University, and the Council on Foreign Relations, among others.” What a surprise!
Huh, maybe the Italian bird isn’t as based as she was portrayed.
She wants in on it, I guess.
Dear @ZelenskyyUa, you know that you can count on our loyal support for the cause of freedom of Ukrainian people. Stay strong and keep your faith steadfast!
She was to liberate Ukrainians from both the Russian and Ukrainian government?
“Looking ahead, the improvement in confidence may bode well for consumer spending in the final months of 2022, but inflation and interest rate hikes remain strong headwinds to growth in the short term,” Lynn Franco, senior director of economic indicators at The Conference Board, said in a statement.

“We’ve been surprised with just how correlated consumer confidence has been with energy costs and fuel costs,” said Keith Buchanan, portfolio manager at Globalt Investments. “It makes people feel better when the weekly stop at the gas pump costs 30% less than it did three months ago.”
Although the average national price of a gallon of gas recently reversed course, breaking a 99-day streak of falling prices, it remains well below June’s record high of $5.02.
It’s like Biden gave you a raise!
I’m not sure why Biden is jaw-boning gas stations (well, I am, but it doesn’t make sense). Crude prices are down 33% from their peak, gas 26%. It seems that gas is following crude.
Re: the pipeline.
Let’s see, who would do this? This is some Bond villain stuff. Everyone pointing fingers at everyone else, potentially escalating to a devastating conflict while simultaneously pushing a green agenda. And who looks and acts like an actual Bond villain?
Klaus mutha fuckin’ Schwab.
I mean, the dude’s got the wardrobe. I guarantee you he was standing at the helm of some 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea-looking submarine, gripping the railing of the bridge, shrieking incoherently about his new world order while he torpedos the pipelines.
Cause untold suffering and loss of life due to cold and conflict? Check.
Stop pumping Gaia-killing fossil fuels? Check.
No doubt his XO, Greta Thunberg, was standing next to him screeching.
Look, it makes as much sense as anything else.

It was Sean Connery
Could have been Xi, he has been out of sight for a while.
The whole coup thing was really just a distraction.
Biden: “If Russia invades, there will no longer be a Nordstream 2. We will bring an end to it.”
I mean… it seems reasonable enough to go with Biden’s own statement on this unless if further evidence points in a different direction. We have a direction admission right here. Anything else is baseless conjecture.
The theory about Russia doing it to themselves is a bit bizarre. I’m not sure how else to take Biden’s statement that we would destroy the pipeline other than meaning we would destroy the pipeline. Either directly or through a proxy.
See my link above. Russia destroys their own pipeline but leaves the Norwegian one intact?
That’s a good point too.
They invaded in Early Feb. We waited 8 months to make good on the threat?
We waited until Vlad started talking about using battlefield nukes.
The pace of the war significantly changed last week. It will be much more intense and Russia is now committed for the long-haul. The start of this new phase is exactly when I’d expect the US to do it. The State Dept’s goal is to topple Russia, not defend Ukraine.
A billionaire bought one of America’s biggest newspapers. Then he put his 28-year old daughter with deep ties to socialist organizations in charge
You may have seen the articles, but it’s actually worse than reported…
And the consequences could affect every resident of LA

1. Meh other things are worse for the residents
2. Good way of getting wokie points for daddy i assume
Luckily for us, no one actually reads newspapers.
This interview doesn’t go well.
Climate change activist Izzy Cook tells everyone not to travel to places like Fiji by plane to save the planet and then is asked where she flew last… she flew to Fiji
She was clearly joking. You can’t fly some place that’s underwater because of global warming.
I am not saying the vaccine breast milk study is wrong, but it was done with about a dozen participants. I’d say it’s a start but I wouldn’t make any decisions based on it. It’d be nice to know when they were no longer able to detect traces of the vaccine as well.
Yeah. I definitely need to sample more breasts here.
You and Q could milk it for millions in research grants.
Better nip this in the bud.
I think I could nurse this for a long time.
So far, I’ve seen studies that show the synthetic mRNA remains in the body for as long as 8.5 months post shot (because that was the longest study to look at it so far).
Normally, natural mRNA is used up by the body and then gone in short order. It is a virtual certainty that the clotting related problems are because the amount of payload in the shots has to be high enough to induce an effect, but for whatever reason, the synthetic mRNA with the spike protein encoding is hanging around in recipients for months and months afterwards.
This is completely separate from whatever harms there may be from the LNP components that encase the synthetic mRNA payload.
Jes’ keep on jabbin’ though!
If its not a pathology, why does it need treatment?
Your nitpicking and sophistry are not helpful.
