Superstar Limo, Disney’s worst attraction ever?
Dave Chappelle, scourge of mentally ill deviants?
Sometimes I feel like Patrick McGoohan, except I don’t have a weather balloon following me about.
…and nothing else happened (local edition.)
Today’s music is selected with Nephilium in mind – These rude boys are having a great time.
“Social Host – no person having control of any residence shall allow an open house party to take place at said residence if such person knows or has reason to know that any alcoholic beverage or drug is being unlawfully posessed, served to or consumed by a minor at said residence – $250 to $500 fine or 15 days imprisonment.”
Lame.
That one has “college town” written all over it.
I just feel like Patrick McGoohan when I get a bee up my butt about some punk kids making cider when I’m just trying to off the guy looking to fire me.
“However there were no signs of any strife onscreen during the rollicking episode, where Dave, 49, hilariously sent up Game Of Thrones prequel House Of The Dragon.”
I’ve never seen either.
I see from last night the wokety wokester brainwashed idiots are going after Yellowstone. Now, Chappell.
Whocouldaseenit coming?
They’ve been after Chappelle for years. It is nothing new.
There was a commercial with three black females next to him – presumably cast members? – questioning him hosting.
That seemed like weird optics.
“‘I’ve been to Hollywood and I don’t want y’all to get mad at me, this is just what I saw: It’s a lot of Jews. Like a lot. But that doesn’t mean anything. There’s a lot of black people in Ferguson, Missouri, but that doesn’t mean we run the place.’
‘I just feel if you go out to Hollywood you might connect some kind of lines and come under the delusion that the Jews run Hollywood. It’s not a crazy thing to think. But it’s a crazy thing to say out loud at a time like this!'”
I can’t believe those clowns couldn’t even win the Senate.
TMITE?
We are well and truly fucked,
Mornin tater
Verging on off-topic — but an opinion column I read this morning makes a pretty good point that a good chunk of it was Dame Lindsey and his brilliant idea of saying “Screw Federalism that all the other conservatives have been pushing for Dobbs! Lets live up to the worst Blue talking point! Yaaar!” back in September, right before early voting kicked in and after the post-Dobbs fervor was starting to die down.
As stated there, there’s more blame to go around than just that — but yeah, that’s doubtless part of it if all the exit polling about how important unrestricted Moloch worship was to the donkeys (and given Prop 1 here in the People’s Republic of Kalifornia, it seems to hold) was accurate.
I did not know there was an actual bill out there.
Yeah, that is epically stupid and it does explain why the Dems went apeshit. Is he working for the Dems?
It’s more likely he’s working for those who want the Ukraine gravy train to continue.
“is he working for the Dems?”
I read a few opinion pieces yesterday that explore that very question: did the GOP deliberately fuck up this election in order to destroy Trump once-and-for-all and sink any other non-establishment republicans?
I think it’s plausible.
If the GOP elders reject and destroy MAGA (candidates at least) they will never win another election, not that they care.
Well, they pulled money out of some potentially winnable races and sent it to Alaska to help somebody who wasn’t a Republican win her re-election, so there’s that.
I admit that i don’t understand why there wasn’t a red tsunami.
Was it the dobbs decision?
Easing of gas prices (thanks strategic petroleum reserve)
Z- generation?
Printing of ballots? (and this is what concerns me the most. If they did “cheat: how did anybody do it? Is there a way to counter it?)
Were we ever a republic?
With a potential nuclear war in Ukraine? How is that not discussed?
Was it the propaganda networks?
Or did the republicans not want to win? The DC uniparty “won”
All of the above?
RE: Dobbs, they’ve been pushing the ‘handmaid’s tale’ for 6+ years, and then they finally get evidence it is really true!
There really are people who buy into it. They also buy into the ‘dignity of office’ stuff, and not all these people are super leftwingers, but they’re surrounded by the 90% leftard propaganda. It seems obvious to most of us the pieces that are hit pieces and fake (according to ‘anonymous sources’ and ‘people familiar with his thinking’), but most people cannot identify these tricks of the trade.
They also buy into the ‘dignity of office’ stuff, and not all these people are super leftwingers, but they’re surrounded by the 90% leftard propaganda.
Fetterlump, of course, is a terrible candidate by virtue of being physically unfit for office, which is why the media kept this a secret for as long as they could. Getting it to after early voting probably helped get him over the top.
Also, Oz is an assclown.
We can talk about candidate quality all we want, but we see that if TEAM RED has an “imperfect” candidate (by the standards of the Establishment/Beltway Class/whatever appropriate name you want to call it), the media will trumpet it to high heaven, but when TEAM BLUE has one, with Fetterlump being the stark example here, the media will cover for it. That’s why I quoted Lack’s part about “90% leftard propaganda”.
There’s also the phenomenon of anything idiotic one Republican does anywhere (eg. Lindsey Graham’s abortion bill) is tied to all Republicans, but any idiotic thing the Democrats do (eg. Merrick Garland trying to get domestic terrorism investigations against school board protestors) is overlooked.
Yeah, there is that. Ugh.
Retard or fruit loop. Douche or shit sandwich. Take your pick.
With a potential nuclear war in Ukraine? How is that not discussed?
The withdrawal from Kherson is an interesting development. By the accounts I read, it was an orderly and scheduled withdrawal. Russia also prioritized the evacuation of Kherson citizens who were not aligned with Kiev before their own military.
The whole thing is perplexing. Kherson is now legally considered Russian Federation territory by Russia and Russia’s allies. It’s a massive military defeat for Russia but one voluntarily ceded with few losses. The most reasonable explanation I can find is that Russia knows they can’t hold Kherson long-term as NATO arms are being pushed to the front and chose to withdraw now, in what is still a major defeat.
Russia has been explicit that their doctrine allows the use of nuclear warfare if Russian Federation territory is threatened, which they now consider Kherson to be. Russian military and Pro-Russia civilians have already been evacuated, and Kiev is now pouring a massive number of troops and NATO weaponry into the city. I’m wondering if we’ll see a couple tactical battlefield nukes go off in Kherson over the upcoming week or two. I won’t go so far as a prediction, but it wouldn’t surprise me if we see mushroom clouds there later this week or next.
I watch this guy. (kid really)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QToaSR0O_dE
about war analysis.
The idea that Russia was talking about a tactical withdrawal openly while doing it is unprecedented.
They seem to have gotten more serious about this?
I expect a nuke or two as soon as Ukraine tries to cross the river.
I don’t think it’s likely that Moscow will resort to tactical nukes over Kherson.
Even Milley is saying that Ukraine needs to negotiate now. The winter does not bode well for Kiev’s prospects.
If the ground freezing helps with potential offensive maneuvers, not sure why that favors the Russians, who are currently on the defensive.
The lack of heat in a Ukranian winter can do wonders for forcing people to the bargaining table.
It is/was a strategic withdrawal.
Countering the cheating requires acknowledging it first. The Democrat media apparatus won’t allow that.
I am asking how would the republicans counter it. Its clear the media won’t cover it.
They can’t because of all the bad names the media will call them.
I don’t know how they can do that if the republicans do what the dems do.
Its black pill all the way down.
Tracy Beanz, on her “Dark to Light” podcast on Friday, argued that it was never seen as a red tsunami until the past couple of weeks. It was thought the GOP could take the house and maybe the Senate, but the idea that it would be a 55 member majority in the Senate was recent.
She suspects it was a demoralization tactic.
Ballot harvesting is a big reason. Going door to door and courteously picking up people’s ballots for them so that they don’t have to take the trouble to walk out to their mailbox.
One theory I saw is that young people don’t vote, but they had ballots mailed to them. Ballots that could be collected, filled out, and dropped into conveniently located voter drop boxes. An older voter may show up at the polls on Election Day and find he’s “already voted”, and raise a ruckus. A younger person probably won’t do that.
The Democrat/media propaganda machine has convinced large numbers of people who are otherwise uninterested in politics that “Democrat” is the default position of all normal people. Combine that with mail-in voting/ballot harvesting and a big propaganda push about the importance of voting and you’ve got a bunch of lazy, low-info voters suddenly voting D.
The “muh Democracy!!”, “fighting to save democracy”, and “democracy dies in darkness” rhetoric is deliberately slathered all over TV and internet media to reinforce the mass hypnosis that
1) Democracy is always good (screw individual rights; mob rule baby!)
2) Democrats = democracy
3) Democrats always good👍
QED.
Does the name Fetterlump ring a bell? Nothing is beyond belief at this point.
I think it’s three things.
CNN and the corporate media have been fear mongering about the “Big Lie” and “Our Democracy”. Although no one can explain what the latter means.
Abortion.
Attack ads and media talking heads about how the Republicans want to cut Social Security and Medicare, with no one being able to push back on it.
There are also might be likely Republican voters who didn’t vote because they assumed the Democrats are going to cheat anyway so why bother. I haven’t heard anyone say that though. There are no exit polls for people who didn’t vote.
This is the first election that I made a deliberate decision not to vote.
Everyone on the ballot either conducted lockdowns in the past, or promised to do more lockdowns in the future.
I vowed not to vote again but did it anyway.
Now that it has become obvious that the country will not be returning to actually secure voting ever again, I think it’s time to brush off that vow and stick with it.
The election result defy fifty years of economic and political reality.
The Dems are cheating. Period.
It is hard to come to any other conclusion.
The explainers are asking us to believe that some combination of multiple phenomena, none of which could have reversed the polling on its own, just happened to fall together on election day and completely upended many of the expected results.
This practice of ‘ballot curing’ is the one that gets me the most. It is allowed to have partisan groups run these operations to contact voters and walk them through correcting their ballot days after they cast said ballot.
Is that what they mean when they call for “national healing”?
“The Dems are cheating. Period.”
Regardless whether the Dems are cheating, they can’t cheat by huge margins. If 60% vote Republican, the Republican wins.
The total vote count for Reps far exceeded the vote count for Dems.
But that is not relevant.
The Dems only need slim majorities in a handful of states to control the whole country. And this is what they are doing.
That is the same argument the left used about Trump.
Trump squeezed out narrow victories in a bunch of blue states.
The Dems paid attention and will never let that happen again.
I am crying/laughing because I am seeing articles “Should the Republicans develop a mail-in voting strategy now?”
Don’t like we went to it and it definitely is a breeding ground for shamfuckery, but that question and answer should have been handled on January 22nd of 2021.
Contemplating the results of a rigged election makes me feel like Patrick MGoohan. Çould be worse.
‘Sometimes I feel like Patrick McGoohan, except I don’t have a weather balloon following me about.’
These don’t look that surprising- I thought they were going to be worse. The parking fines are comically low.
The mayor did some backroom deal with a digital parking fee service provider not too long ago. Nobody bothers to pay as one has to use a telephone application (at least in NYC, the on-street kiosks take cards, with some taking cash.) Happily the town has two rather libertarian cops who don’t care about parking tickets, but one chief who gets a wee bit too excited about being top-cop and occasionally goes on ticket writing sprees.
I’ve seen that other places- required to download their app, etc.
And it is always the most overpriced parking.
Ugh Asheville had that. I wanted to park, drop some cash in a meter and be on my way…as someone visiting. Instead had to download an app, find out what lot I was in (the lot was split in two on the app so had to determine which sublot I was parked in) and then pay via the app.
10 minutes later we finally had paid for the parking spot.
There was normal meters on street parking but there was no open spots. There also was a kiosk but none were working that day. So someone who maybe doesn’t own a smart phone couldn’t pay to park and would have to circle the city until a street spot opened up.
Progress! Like those stupid QR code menus resturants are using.
A town near where I grew up went to an app to pay for parking.
So many people refused to go into the downtown area that local businesses bitched.
The town brought back the ability to pay with quarters.
There’s a handful of parking lots here in CLE that require an app. When the girlfriend and I went to brunch a couple weeks back, we parked in one. That app is the spammiest app I’ve ever had (it has since been uninstalled).
I want off this ride.

“ He made explicit jokes about trans people’s bodies and referred to trans people as “transgenders,” among other comments, Vulture said.”
Oh noes
Nobody has ever made vulgar jokes about the human body.
referred to trans people as “transgenders,”
Uh… aren’t they? Oh right, People of Transness.
No such thing as transgender. You are born male or female. A tenth of one percent are genetically in between.
The rest of these people are just plain nuts. They cant tell day from night, up from down and if you tell them water is wet they get confused. They are crazy.
I think there are people with a mental disorder that causes them to feel discomfort with their own bodies, generally termed dysphoria. When their specific dysphoria relates to their sex, they would be transexual?
What else do you want to call them? I am fine using our own terms, but just abdicating the lexical battlefield isn’t going to work.
The latest thing is … people are not wheelchair-bound. They are wheelchair USERS. As if people who are permanently in one can choose to walk or not.
In the Tenderloin here in SF (hard drug user area) that is a frequent sight. I’ll often see someone in a wheelchair propelling themselves along with their legs.
Heh yeah I’ve seen that action before.
We don’t have anything quite like the Loin in NYC but you see that in random areas.
It’s yet another example of them trying to use language to put you in the defensive. They can piss off, I don’t care about their feelings.
“In the two officers’ depositions, they admitted that statements they made in police reports, the search warrant and other documents were inaccurate.”
…and then they were arrested and charged with contempt of court and perjury.
J/k!
“The problem that Mr. Yezek and I have with the Village of Gowanda’s response and the police department’s response is they didn’t care,” Rupp said. “There was no internal affairs investigation. There were no consequences for these officers.”
I heard Chappelle was working on a bit about a chic named Tucker.
In the meantime, Chappelle is undoubtedly making hometown heads explode in hippy-dippy Yellow Springs – he’s so unwoke on QUILTBAG issues, but he’s also a hero for blocking a big new residential development in the village (no matter how big they get, I bet they’ll never admit to being larger than a “village”) by buying all the land himself. “Affordable housing is for Dayton!”/prog NIMBYs
The no Cushy Furniture on your porch law is bullshit.
Tranquility Base hardest hit.
Like rhywun posted above that college town stuff. Frats like to drag furniture outside.
I’m at the point where if all of Disney burned down, I’d consider it a gift to humanity.
Candidate quality matters, to Republicans.
Rude boy music for Nephilium.

My moms yard suffers from a new critter infestation
https://photos.app.goo.gl/aqd9tSBKGSDCd22y9
I need a gun a horse and 50 beagles
A bunch of other critters are about to de-infest the place.
other problem critters are occasion moles not much else
Border Terrier should take care of them.
What a gorgeous view! I’m sure you’ve posted pics before, but this really shows it off.
it is ridiculous how many leaves are on trees for this time of year. very warm year. no frosts by mid November. frosts usually tell the trees to shed the leaves
The last couple of years, we’ve gotten a late Spring frost that wrecks our magnolia’s blossoms. 😢
so did we. the magnolia is usually fine. the apricots are usually fucked
Same here.
Then we moved anyway. I really miss my old yard.
They are harmless and eat a lot of rats and mice.
Put some food out for them.
Indeed a highly useful creature to have around. Quite beautiful as well. Last time in Montana we had a large red fox that would come saunter by the back porch every dusk and have a look at us before disappearing.
*zooms in*
Oh what a cutie
But what did it say?
👍 thanks for the ear worm.
https://youtu.be/jofNR_WkoCE
Fox or not, that is a pretty nice yard. Decent water feature!
Neat
When I was working one summer at Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland, we were in a non-air conditioned metal hangar-like building so we kept the garage doors up all day.
A red fox started coming around closer and closer daily. The techs were feeding him doughnuts.
One day he ran into the hangar, grabbed a high voltage glove ($110) and ran off with it.
Another day, he grabbed my purse (my leather purse is more tool bag than purse; Duluth Trading Company) and was running away with it. I chased him, yelling, and threw stuff at him (foam blocks) until he panicked and dropped the purse.
He had bitten through the purse strap. I put it on my expense report for that trip as a lark, but they actually reimbursed me for the purse strap.
I still have that purse. Good ol’ Duluth Trading Co.
More glad tidings
The Senate’s steady confirmation of President Joe Biden’s judicial nominees will continue for two more years, after Democrats retained the chamber Saturday.
With control of the House uncertain, but Republicans still favored, the legislative agenda for the next Congress remains up in the air. But the outcome in the Senate provides Democrats with at least one guarantee: that they will be able to unilaterally confirm Biden’s judges and executive branch nominees.
The depoliticization of the judiciary can continue.
Yup, we’re screwed. I expect Thomas to die suddenly in the next 2 years.
Judges can make their law. Let them enforce it.
But don’t vote for OZ, he’s yukky!
My moms yard suffers from a new critter infestation
Lock up the henhouse.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer vowed the Senate would continue its momentum on judges.
“Senate Democrats have been committed to restoring balance to the federal judiciary with professionally and personally diverse judges,” he said in a statement. “With two more years of a Senate Democratic majority we will build on our historic pace of judicial confirmations and ensure the federal bench better reflects the diversity of America.”
Diverse.
“Professionally diverse” = unqualified to be a county court clerk, much less an SC justice
And now will “precedent” be a good thing or bad thing?
I get “personally diverse” – let racism and sexism guide your choices – but I wonder what “professionally diverse” is supposed to mean.
I’m not sure it means anything, just bafflegab. Otherwise, it could be a euphemism for “unqualified”.
Go fuck yourself, Schmoobs.
Lobot, “Be seeing you”
Good morning everyone.
Mornin’ all. I should eat breakfast, but… links.
The Village of Alfred has many unique laws and ordinances that new residents may not be familiar with.
Oh boy. Diving in.
Money is required in the parking meters weekdays, 9am – 11am & 1pm – 5pm.
What else would the parking meters take except money? Straw? Dick pics? Welsh rarebit?
No parking on the front or side lawn of any residence with in the B1, B2, R2, R3 zoning districts-
My family would have been in trouble had we lived in one of those areas.
No parking on Village streets and Town roads from 2am – 6am
Drunks hardest hit.
Open Container – no person shall possess an open container of or consume an alcoholic beverage on any public lands within the Village and Town of Alfred
Drunks hardest hit.
no person having control of any residence shall allow an open house party to take place at said residence if such person knows or has reason to know that any alcoholic beverage or drug is being unlawfully posessed, served to or consumed by a minor at said residence
But closed house parties with minors consuming alcohol are OK?
No person(s) shall: use obscene or abusive language or gesture in a public place
I don’t know if this is the right place for Glib’s Gulch.
No person shall operate or permit to be operated any mechanical or electronic device for the production or amplification of sound in such a way that it produces unnecessary noise.
My boom box is producing necessary noise.
No person shall kindle or maintain an outdoor fire within the boundaries of the Village of Alfred unless it is an approved conatiner (outdoor fireplace, metal or clay chimnea, manufactured metal fire pit with a mesh cover).
KKK hardest hit.
the storage of upholstered furniture (not manufactured for outdoor use) in outside areas is prohibited. Outside areas include rooftops, yards, unenclosed porches, decks, patios, and balconies visible from the street. Storage of indoor items and construction materials in outdoor areas is prohibited.
What a buzzkill. I can’t have a couch on my porch? Fuck.
“We’re hoping that with the financial impact that this could have on the village and the need to pay $775,000 that maybe they’ll think twice before they do it again,” Rupp said.
A gullible attorney. I wonder if he’ll buy my bridge?
The old men in this morning’s music are awesome. The song is good too.
COOL LINK BRO!!
I can see a lot of those ordnances being justified as an attempt to keep a nice, quiet peaceful community that way, without blowout house parties or all-day drunkfests in residential neighborhoods. As someone who would be pissed about either in my neighborhood (and I bet I’m not the only one), I don’t have a strong objection to any of them.
That’s not what they are there for.
Morons, who want to live in a college town but not be around icky college students, push for these ordinances so that the government can bring the hammer down on the icky college students.
There’s a certain “coming to the nuisance” vibe, sure, and always the potential for abuse, but as written, eh, the community gets a say. Look around here at the periodic complaints about neighbors for which there is no peaceful self-help. The complete breakdown of community norms is not a pretty sight, either.
It’s a college town. The norms are… different.
I have no sympathy for those who “come to the nuisance.” None. Fuck ’em.
“I moved next to the airport/gun club and I don’t like the noise. We oughta have a law!”
Yep. Large tracts of development out here in Nevada right in known and established flight paths of a known growing executive airport and people are batching of airplane noise daily to city councils and to the FAA.
Obligatory.
It’s not like all these people are newly arrived residents to the town. What about the people who have lived there for 50 years with no issue, then suddenly someone starts buying and renting out neighborhood houses to rowdy college kids?
They lack the desire for progress Mike.
Which was there first? The town or the college?
If the college, and I can think of some college towns like this, then no, they have no room to bitch as the college was there first.
Except these “norms” you cite are different today than the “norms” from the many decades prior when the school was established. And, really, the rule you’ve made here applies to the entire town? So someone many blocks from campus who suddenly finds rowdy college kids are now living next door to him has no room to bitch because the college kids get to decide what the “norms” are for his neighborhood?
Lastly, a college existing before the town in which it is now located must be exceedingly rare. I can see it happening on the east coast, bit anywhere west of the original 13? Towns were settled first, “civilization” and schools came later.
I lived in Merced CA when the town was just starting to get going on putting the new UC campus in. Everyone was excited about how much money would start coming into a fairly depressed region of the state, and no one would listen to me tell them how much the town would change. And, lo and behold…
Something something chicken egg… (Just one example, but I wouldn’t be surprised of others couldn’t cite other similar west-of-the-original-colonies sequences of development, even if they were near-simultaneous.)
And, really, the rule you’ve made here applies to the entire town?
If the town grew up around the school, yes.
And yes, I lived in one of those towns. School went in first, town grew up around it.
I knew someone would latch onto that “west of the 13” line and find exceptions. I stand by the main point I was making that it is exceedingly rare.
That’s ridiculous. Something that in many cases happened well over 100 years ago gives a free pass to current residents to act like assholes and ignore the rights of others to live peaceably? College town “norms” are vastly different today than when most of these schools were established.
I stand by the main point I was making that it is exceedingly rare.
It being rare or not is irrelevant.
Either the college was there first or it wasn’t. That’s the basis of my rule.
You started with a broad generalization about “morons” who want to live in college towns. So did you really mean they’re only morons if the college was there first? If the town was there first, as I contend is the case in the vast majority of “college towns”, then what? Then you’re fine with laws trying to prevent party houses from popping up in the middle of peaceful neighborhoods?
There was an Olympic class shooting range in the Oakland, CA hills that was shut down not too many years ago, even though it had been there for decades. The reasons were BS, and when the city would come up with some barrier to being there, such as lead runoff (seriously? bullets don’t “run-off” and lead is a naturally occurring substance) the range would easily meet the new requirement. And then the city would put up some new BS to meet. Also, see Laguna Seca, and newbies complaining about the noise during race weeks.
I grew up in a college town, and every townie hated the parties, but loved the property values.
Fuck ’em.
I grew up in a college town, and every townie hated the parties, but loved the property values.
Fuck ’em.
Yep. See my note above about living in a town that grew up around a college.
I had no sympathy for the townies that bitched.
I also didn’t much care for college students. I worked as a janitor in the dorms my first year. But… the college was there first.
And the Indians were here before both. I guess we have some societal norms to get reverting back to.

It’s good you got the check. It went to a good cause.
PA House appears to have flipped from a 23 seat GOP majority to a 2 seat deficit.
Ouch.
Maybe the state senate will act as a roadblock. Heh. Is Corman going to be Senate President next term? Then probably not a roadblock.
I haven’t seen an update yet on the NH House. The last I heard was 203-197, Republican majority, with about two dozen recounts expected. NH Senate is firmly in control of Republicans, with two libertarians who ran as Republicans. We’ll see how things changed as we have some typos in the state’s election results.
Don’t know yet if Corman will be Senate president. He represents a district that includes increasingly Blue Centre County, so I imagine he will be treading lightly going forward.
Enjoy turning into New York, Pennsylvania.

The U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on Sunday said that the Democrats’ clinching of U.S. Senate control makes things easier for the Biden administration, but she would still like to see a debt ceiling increase approved before year-end in Congress’s post-election “lame duck” session.
Yellen told reporters on the sidelines of G20 summit meetings in Bali that Senate control by Democrats would ease the path for approving nominations and other legislative actions.
“We want to see the debt ceiling get done. If it got done in the lame duck, that would be great, as far as I’m concerned,” Yellen said.
A tofurkey in every pot. A gussied up golf cart in every garage.
I want the debt ceiling to be an actual ceiling.
If push came to shove, how would you prefer to be executed?
Snu-snu.
+ 1 shattered pelvis.
I personally would not recommend that.

Exactly who I hoped it was. We saw them on a regular basis, and went out drinking with them after several shows. We saw them back in 1998 at Kalamzoo Brewing (later renamed to Bell’s Brewing).

Look, I’m not saying that forming a Traditionalist monarchy somewhere in northern Idaho with the plan of reconquering America over five centuries is a realistic plan, I’m just saying it’s more realistic than thinking voting Republican will get anyone out of this.
Sorry, linky crapped up with tracking garbage, so no posty linky.
Ha!
An American reconquista?
Where would all the visiting crusaders come from though?
There is no francia.
Might have to liberate Canada first.
I kind of wish you would call people names.

Rhetorical civility in politics is 1) overrated and 2) not actually practiced.
“SOCIAL MEDIA BOTS: Your disapproval is duly noted but your upvotes and retweets will not be part of this year’s totals. This is not meant as an affront to your robot overlords, it’s just not allowed for in Arizona law.”

“Please watch this fiery video and remember that Katie Hobbs is now overseeing an extremely disputed and tight election in Arizona while at the same time being a candidate for Governor in what appears to be a very close race, all because she refused requests to recuse herself:”

Totally normal, nothing to see here.
It’s like you don’t even want to save Democracy.
As if Maricopa county follows AZ law.
Thank you, sidebar fairy!

So I have Disney+ because I could get a package that included Hulu and ESPN. The lady decided she wanted to watch a Disney movie so she turns on Aladdin. Disney is now putting woke disclaimers before their own movies. Our cultural revolution continues apace.
Yes, they do that with all their old content. Just stupid. It was the first thing I cancelled when family stopped watching.
Wasting no time
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Sunday said President Biden should run for reelection in 2024, calling him a “great president for our country” who has “accomplished so much” for Americans.
“He has just done so many things that are so great,” Pelosi told ABC’s “This Week” host George Stephanopoulos. “He’s put money in people’s pockets, vaccines in their arms, children back in school, people back to work — for starters.”

Pelosi on Sunday said Biden has worked to pass huge bills in Congress, citing the historic climate and health care legislation the Inflation Reduction Act and a bill that helped to assist veterans exposed to toxic burn pits.
“All of it with justice, with equity, with inclusiveness,” Pelosi said. “He has been a great president and he has a great record to run on.”
The only meaningful measure of a President is how much money he spends.
Nancy Pelosi, CCC

Today California, tomorrow the WORLD!!
Jesus. I wonder how many cocktails she had to knock back in order to come up with that flapdoodle.
Good morning l0b0t!
These rude boys are having a great time.
Those guys are awesome!
All systems GO!
Lol. Dog is like…thus? This is what you think will replace me?
There’s a funny Corgi one in the comments.

I love these.
If we could drop modern medicine in to that scene I wanna go back to that. Cause I don’t wanna die when I stub my toe

Back in the day, I’d have been institutionalized or dead.
Further back in the day, I’d have been burned at the stake.
Q: Did you hear about the judge who faced death on a charge of practicing witchcraft?

*adjusts tinfoil* Laxalt leads for 4 days but the minute CCM surpasses him by a couple hundred votes is like “oh…she won!” All while NV election officials said vote counting will continue until at least Monday.
No tinfoil required
I bought the lot dammit, let me use it!
Cover for whatever shenanigans are needed to seal the deal.
It’s called “fraud.”
Well, crap. I hyperextended my right knee Friday evening (no external cause, no slip; just random popping out of joint), and have been doing “RICE” — rest, ice, compression, elevation since then. It was a lateral hypertension, meaning my right upper leg tilted toward my left leg while the lower right leg splayed out sideways. It was loud, and I had to use my hands to restore it to its proper place. Maybe “dislocation” is a more accurate term than hyperextension. Either way it was nausea-inducing.
It’s still swollen and unstable feeling but it’s going to be a busy week. Not sure urgent care clinic could help, but perhaps it’s worth it if they have a good brace.
Of course, a handful of Vicodin would be nice, but we can’t be prescribing opiates in quantities over 5 pills to injured patients, can we?
Ouch. Sorry to hear that.
How much movement can you tolerate? I would perhaps do more M than R today and see how it feels.
How much of your busy week will be on your feet?
