This would definitely improve the game.
It’s been a strange week. I’ll leave it there. Thank god we have Division playoffs this weekend to distract me. History doesn’t repeat itself, but it does rhyme.
Shall we do some Links?
The circumstantial details here do not say good things about this dude.
Okay. That’s my phone it in Links for the week. How about a little Southern fried rock and roll?
So speaking of sleep, my tinnitus is really out of control today. Not sure why. Anyway, I take Tylenol PM to sleep (Benadryl by itself wires me up). In a choice between insomnia and tinnitus, I’ll tell you. I’ll take insomnia first.
Congratulations on your First, Mo.
I learned it from you, Dad! I learned it from watching you!
And I’m proud.
First!
Go out to your yard, and get a switch. Beat yourself with it. I can’t be bothered.
Too cold, brah
Just be glad it isn’t one of the more Firstlical of punishments.
No, I mean it’s too cold outside. And dark. Not doing it.
You could get eaten by a grue!
Mine’s been bad lately too. Last time I went shooting it really flared up even though I was wearing earplugs. I immediately ordered some better ear muffs for next time.
Last night I had my headphones on, listening to some music super loud, which was stupid.
Muffs AND plugs are the way to go. Also, never ever take aspirin, that’ll really make it go nuts.
Aspirin is the worst, but Tylenol and ibuprofen also will do a number on you. It’s a side effect of all of them.
Tylenol isn’t an NSAID. First time I’ve heard it cause tinnitus.
Benzos work for both insomnia and tinnitus.
It is true that Tylenol isn’t an NSAID. Liver damage isn’t the only thing it does.
I ONLY take Tylenol because I have a delicate gastric system that eats itself if aspirin or ibuprofen arrive. I haven’t had aspirin or ibuprofen in a couple of years. But I take Tylenol every night and my tinnitus is getting worse.
https://www.ehealthme.com/ds/tylenol/tinnitus/
I am not interested in benzos. I took 1 Xanax one time and it took about 3.42 seconds to knock me loopy and then drop me on the bed for hours. I just can’t deal with that kind of loss of control.
What dosage was that xanax?
0.5 mg
Hmm. I know I’m a big guy and all, but it’s always taken 30 mins or more for me to feel any affect, and I usually need at least 3 times that to even notice anything. Then again, I don’t think I’ve ever had real Xanax, only the generics. I know there is a difference between generic Vicodin and the real thing. The generics don’t do anything for me, but the real thing I felt like I was laying on a bed of feathers.
I have tinnitus worst in my left ear that doesn’t even work for actual hearing. It’s no fun.
Gawd I hate tinnitus. I feel ya.
I have it, too.
They both suck. This week has been an absolute insomnia clusterfuck. I ordered some Doc Parsley’s sleep formula. I will report back.
I had a shot ton of tests, including an MRI, to figure out wtf was going on. No luck.
Do you have any hearing loss in that ear?
No. Or at least, not yet. Too many years of heavy metal in my yute, too.
My ENT thinks it was a virus that killed mine. If it was music I should have been deaf 20 years ago.
I can pinpoint aspirin as most of the cause of my tinnitus.
Does Doc Parsley’s old fashioned formula include codeine?
Lol. No.
But I’ve heard from a bunch of people that it is solid. I’ve tried a bunch of pharmaceutical products and I’m done. THC kind of helps, but not consistently.
So no “Harrelson’s Own”? Those commercials crack me up for some reason.
My wife went to the hearing center for tinnitus. They tested her hearing and she came back with hearing aids.
Tinnitus is a brain problem. They program the hearing aids to play soft ocean sounds at a very low volume. It helps to train the brain to stop trying to find sounds where none exist.
My wife started getting relief from the tinnitus within days. It is now gone in one ear and nearly gone in the other.
When she takes the hearing aids out at night, she uses a cheap sound machine from walmart to play ocean sounds all night. I have been sleeping better since then. Best bang for the buck.
Stupid brain.
Okay, I’ll try ocean sounds. Rain and crickets don’t do it for me.
There’s no real details. I have no problem with him going to fight in Ukraine if he believes it’s worthwhile. Or if he just wants to kill some Ruskies.
But he had been AWOL since 2019, after an arrest warrant was issued.
The timelines do not indicate he deserted to fight in Ukraine, but nothing in the article indicates why he deserted. I will reserve judgement on that. Does not seem to be a matter of cowardice.
The US was using him for other purposes in Ukraine – there was no AWOL.
*spitballing*
I’ve become so cynical that I instantly had that thought. Sheep dipped.
Considered it, though I’d think they would just sweep his death under the rug rather than even acknowledge it. And presumably there was a warrant out for him if he deserted in 2019. They’d have to go back and fabricate that.
We have guys on the ground in Ukraine. Not sure if this was one of them. Definitely possible.
It was a Dirty Dozen kind of thing. But they got him off the street instead of out of prison.
Guessing that the Navy is doing that guy dirty. Probably a lot of other guys dead from natural causes coming home from the Ukraine soon.
Where the bottom-feeders get to dictate what you are allowed to trade in. Yay!
“He made it very clear he had no intention of letting it move anywhere or hiring anyone to start the agency,” Krueger explained.”
This may be the best explanation of why he got me too’d all of a sudden.
I think being an egomaniac is a better explanation.
It’s a Saturday, and I’m here at home. So I’ll be kicking off the Zoom/Happy Hour/Gabfest at 20:00 Eastern.
I’ve been pre gaming with the neighbors
Jaguars are averaging 6.6 YPC. Etienne 6.5. Of course, they’ve given him the ball 8 times through 3 quarters and are putting the game entirely in the hands of their shaky QB.
And Lawrence is averaging an absolutely putrid 3.9 YPA…
Bro watching the NFL
I do agree they should have run more. If you ever had a chance to beat the Chiefs…
I must admit a 4 point game in the 4th qtr is not what I was expecting. I thought this would be a blow out by half time.
Mahomes is a shell of himself at the moment.
He’s got less than two wheels.
Yeah, it’s painful to watch.
Cars falling through ice compilation:
https://youtu.be/uT06Dya9Lv0
I watched most of it and don’t think anyone died so it’s OK to laugh.
Pinned post at Idiots In Cars?
I’m so damn glad portable video cameras weren’t a thing when I was a kid.
Right?! Good grief.
Last winter some dood drove his snow cat out on a lake near here. They recovered his and his buddies bodies the following summer.
Some is these are so stupid, like, the ice is clearly already broken up, or extremely thin and melting… What did they think would happen?
Alcohol was likely involved on a few.
I always waited a few days after several other people had driven on the ice. I always drove with no seat belts on, door open, window down. Mostly I liked to fish smaller lakes and walk out.
As a Minnesotan, that made me laugh.
A lot.
Chiefs would be better doing squib kicks…
The kicker taking a foot to the face saves a TD return. Well done.

Ha!
At the Apple store. My 7 year old Macbook blew a key. Hoping it can be fixed easily. Just told it isn’t covered under the lawsuit. Arg.
Nope. No can fix. I am not paying $500 to fix it
Bummer. Of course a 7 year old win pc would be so slows as to be unusable.
Haha, yeah. You keep drinking that Kool-Aide.
My son is the only Mac user in the family.
If you don’t update windows it will work on the generation it was released with. But after updates, patches and the latest virus programs watch it slow to a crawl.
Desktops are generally better than laptops in my experience.
/s guy with 7 pcs running win 7, 10 and 11. Add another 3 if you include my wife and my work machines.
This is true.
Long experience with both.
I prefer one, but the other one is more useful.
My wife has a an older Mac laptop as well. Still chugging along, but I think it EOL for updates.
I don’t touch it.
I’m not anti, just no interest.
/is currently still gaming on a 4 year old Windows PC.
Mine is also 4 years old, but new 3080 GPU.
Still running with an eVGA GeForce RTX 2070 Super. Some games will no longer run at max graphics.
I’m fine with that.
I have the laptop version of the 3080 – working out pretty well. I don’t play super graphically-intensive games but I do want to keep playing new stuff for some years.
Only problem is Windows sometimes wants to choose the “integrated” graphics which is shit for games. And
somemany games don’t allow the v-sync thingie which is supposed to fix tearing.As opposed to Macs, where the few games that are actually advertised to work, work without issue.
It’s almost never a fair comparison, because the Apple products are loaded with matched, top of the line components while a Windows machine can be anything from a smoking super computer to a cheap piece of shit that barely works right out of the box.
The problem isn’t with the hardware, but the OS you are choosing to run on it.
That sucks.
Maybe this?

Saturday night news dump
It seems as though the “there there” is definitely expanded to there as well.
Team Blue keeps ignoring that these are biden’s VP era documents which means they have been improperly stored for a minimum of six years.
Worse than that: “ some of which were from the President’s service in the Senate”
I’ve noticed that too. The Presidential Records Act gives Trump a plausible reason to have his documents when he left office. I’m not aware of any law letting Biden as Vice-President take records with him. Unless I’m missing something, it’s a slam dunk Biden broke the law.
Again, buried in the story is that some were from his time as senator. Not even part of the executive branch at that point.
I noticed that too. Now I want to know how, as a senator, he obtained classified material and was allowed to take it.
LOL this is so obviously a political operation.
Oh, hell yeah. And people think their vote actually matters.
Right? I voted for you to send me a bottle of your best whisky, but the fix was in and here I sit drinking sub $100/bottle liquor. Sad!
He only drinks whiskey.
Dammit. I still get the spelling mixed up.
No, you didn’t. https://www.totalwine.com/discover/learn/whisky-vs-whiskey?&pid=cpc:Performance+Max%2BUS%2BCALI%2BENG%2BSPART::google::&gclid=Cj0KCQiAt66eBhCnARIsAKf3ZNGZ28j5lFSQW5rpx0YWh1GTiMuq0Z8psi1PNemJmvutF1CzLAPOXLUaAqvAEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
Spud wants to destroy democracy.
Yes, I do. We’re descending into the mob mentality stage of democracy.
So, Trump had documents for months, and the Archives knew he had them. That is a much more serious situation than Biden having documents nobody knew he had for years. Am I following correctly?
Not to mention the VP can’t declassify at will as the President can.
I guess Obama made a
dictatorial pronouncementexecutive order that the VP can declassify any document he classified. The articles I’ve seen fail to leave out the part about he can only do it if he originally classified them. And, as Juris Imprudent and Adam Schiff will gladly tell us, going thorough the bureaucratic theater of getting some lackey to stamp them as declassified is super fucking important, so I don’t see how Biden can get out of this.Which of course is the point. He’s being shown the door.
Shit, at least Trump took them on purpose; this is just rank incompetence.
Biden knew he had them, but was hiding them in plain sight?
Have to assume their ability to be accessed without anyone knowing was on purpose.
‘The FBI search was done with the consent of the president’s attorneys, people briefed on the matter said. The FBI also previously picked up documents found at the residence, which the Biden team disclosed last week.’
This is the part I want sure about, so he withheld or didn’t know about 6 documents? Wtf, they gave you warning so you could get rid of everything and you still let them find more?
I like to think he was using the docs for random things around the house: Napkins, paper towels, extra stuffing in the sofa cushions, a big bin of paper to light the fireplace with- all classified documents. It’d be hard to account for all of that.
Let’s not kid ourselves. Biden took them on purpose, too. Obama has classified shit he isn’t supposed to, as well. Bill probably uses a classified folder of documents for a coaster.
They all take shit when they leave office, and it wasn’t really a thing to go after people for it until Trump. Hillary had classified material on an unsecured email shoulder and the FBI basically shrugged and said what do you want us to do about it…
They are only going after Biden for it now so they can ditch his ass for 2024 and they had already set the precedent with Trump.
Exactly. I bet all the congress critters clutching their pearls (and the ones who aren’t) also have unauthorized classified info at home, or at a bare minimum have verbally passed classified info along to others.
So if Brandon resigns and Commie-la ascends, doesn’t that put Kevin McCarthy in as VP? Isn’t that how it worked with Ford?
Nixon appointed him after Agnew resigned.
And Congress confirmed him.
And Ford was the minority leader.
It looks like “The Eddie” will occur on Sunday. 10’s of thousands will go to Oahu’s North Shore and watch on local TV. It is the largest sporting event out here. What is the Eddie? It is a big wave surfing championship. These crazy men and women will be competing on waves that must have 30+ feet of wave face. Tomorrow the expectation is for 40 foot waves. If the proper conditions aren’t generated the contest is CX. That last one was in 2016.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Eddie
The power in this water is immense. Last week the same location hosted the “Pipeline Championship” with around 20 foot wave faces and two professional surfers ended up hospitalized. These waves will be twice as big on average with the surfers looking for larger than average waves with a good shape.
In a bit of irony these beach is known as a great family beach in the summer when the swells don’t come from NE. There is an annual sail race to this bay in the summer and the anchorage area is inside the reef that causes the break.
Here is some footage from the last Eddie conducted.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePNL4RA2SJY
Excellent! Good stuff.
Fucking cool. How do they score a coemption like that? It looks like pure chaos.
I have no idea. A friend of mine tried explaining it to me and it seems to be a mix of wave height, length of ride, cool turns etc. performed, not falling, and what the chicken livers reveal.
I never learned to surf but, for me, it is the coolest freaking sport in the world.
Guess no Germany visit for me. Wonder if this has changed…

I just returned from Germany. Nobody even asked to see a Covid Card when I entered. The only restrictions I encountered were you were mandated to wear a mask on a bus/streetcar/train and that only had about 50% compliance. If “zee Germans” can only muster 50% compliance then they are clearly through with the drama.
Yeah. I’m preparing to go and everything I’ve seen says nothing to worry about. I wonder:
When was his trip?
Did Germany require it or did the Tesla factory require it?
If it was anywhere during peak freakout I have no doubt it was a national requirement.
Never forget about fucking “vaccine passports”.
Oh absolutely. That’s what I mean; if he was there a year ago, it was national*. If it was after June 22, 2022 (IIRC) than it was apparently his own factory’s rule.
*I’m not positive, but I believe they also accepted recent infection instead of vax.
Nice.
Just remember Nancy Reagan was crazy…
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/nancy-pelosi-called-priests-perform-exorcism-husbands-hammer-attack-daughter-says
All of San Francisco needs an exorcism, hope he’s a hell of a priest.
Haha. Oooookay.
‘ I think that really broke her.’
But not all the babies she supports being killed.
Right?! She’s such a devout Catholic that she’ll have priests over for prayers and a fucking exorcism, but she thinks killing unborn babies is a sacrosanct right given from God.
Funny, I had similar thoughts.
Well, she is a Catholic. 🙄

Huh. I actually like that one.

https://www.npr.org/2023/01/21/1150397853/gas-stoves-became-part-of-the-culture-war-in-less-than-a-week-heres-why
Without reading, is it because the left tried to take away or culture like usual?
Republicans pounced again….
Well Team Red did make it seem like guns and the Bible were next…
I mean, if the left could get away with it, wouldn’t they go after those too?
Well you do realize just how many people have been killed for improperly interpreting or denying the contents of the Bible.
Gotta ban that just to be safe…
The left has been working on those a lot longer than gas stoves.
It’s not like there were any cities or states that banned natural gas stoves and the like already…
No one is crazy enough to do that. Especially not California with its shaky grid.
Hm, the quote from AOC fully on board with banning gas stoves seems to be missing. Just an oversight, I’m sure.
They’re just informing their listeners on how best to rationalize the issue in the Democrats favor and ignore the outrage.
The woke media that hates guns in all forms are not bemoaning the wrongful charges against Alec Baldwin. It wasn’t “murder-murder” I guess.
Well the NYG/Phi game is turning ugly early.
Yes it is. And some people thought this would be an upset game.
The breakthrough came when wiretaps of his relatives revealed Messina Denaro had colon cancer. Investigators obtained lists of all patients aged over 55 undergoing oncological treatment for the disease in the provinces of Agrigento, Palermo and Trapani.

Having listened to the interviews with dGT and Harris I learned two things:

Going through my sister’s receipts at work. She bought $350 sneakers for her 14 year old daughter. Some Adidas that were shipped from London.
My daily WTF quota has really shot through the roof lately.
That’s all just so enraging. Sorry you and your folks have to deal with it.
She did buy that personally, but her spending habits are lunatic.
I think she spent $20k on houseplants this past year. It’s bonkers.
Does she have some kind of mental illness to go along with the evil?
It’s definitely compulsive. I’ve figured out her pattern.
She researches a particular area and finds the most “vintage” or esoteric item she can. She then obsesses over it for a while before buying a few variants of it and then most of it never comes out of the boxes. Literally. She had thirty pairs of designer boots and shoes squirreled away at the office that has never been worn. She’s been hoarding expensive unworn clothes at our parents house, they didn’t even realize it.
She is most definitely not in control.
Were those boots made for walking?
Sorry you are dealing with this.
So sorry
y, Scruffyy. Does her daughter have a stable parent in the picture?$20k on houseplants?! I’ve been in conservatories that probably didn’t spend that much on plants.
Believe me, I had no idea that you could spend $6500 on a houseplant. But you can.
“I think she spent $20k on houseplants this past year. It’s bonkers.”
WTF??
I could have fuck-you money and I wouldn’t spend that kind of money on that kind of shit.
Exactly
I have a couple relatives that have gotten P’ o’ Attorney over their parent ‘s money. In both cases it was because the parent wasn’t competent in money handling. In both cases I’m confidant it was the right thing to do and it’s not like it’s a lot of money but SS for the most part.
We’ve had to hide my mom’s checkbook because she just keeps writing checks to charities that send her mail. Most of them are legit as far as charities go, but you don’t need to send a check to everyone who sends you junk mail, and you don’t need to send a check every couple months. And because she’s one do many mailing lists, the important things like bills and dividend checks get buried in all the crap she gets. The checkbook is like a drug to her. She even tried to get my son to try to find it for her.
Oy.
Yeah, that definitely happens with old folks. Seen it multiple times myself.
Damn, Scruff. I just can’t even. I really feel bad for you, and especially your folks.
Thanks, I’ll be fine. My financial bottom line just got a lot better.
But my mother is not handling it well and dad is just pissed.
I imagine it’s the betrayal more than the money. Heartbreaking.
They would forgive her if she tried to reconcile, but she’s excommunicated herself. I guess avoiding the situation suits her better.
Meh, I’d go bury myself in shame also.
Family businesses are great until they aren’t.
Sorry, Scruff. I’m not far behind you.

Everybody hurts sometimes.
Yeah, but I just saw a commercial that featured this song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCsGRCf8T9Y
So that’s pretty cool.
Awesome tune. What was the product?
They played it when rolling to commercial during the game.
Wa that what it was? I wan’t paying close attention – just love the song!
Yeah, I perked right up when I heard that… harmonium?
More than meets the ear, apparently:
https://www.songfacts.com/facts/spacehog/in-the-meantime
The opening tones were sampled from a song called “Telephone and Rubber Band” by an experimental British group called the Penguin Cafe Orchestra. The section sampled is a recording of a phone line when wires get crossed, along with (as the title implies) the sound of a rubber band. Langdon told Songfacts:
I had no idea he married Liv Tyler.
I mean, I don’t really care, but I don’t remember hearing that.
That’s super-cool; now I’m hearing it in my head mashed-up with Pink Floyd’s “Young Lust”; the ring is partly the same tone, I think.
Yeah, I had no idea either.
She’s pretty cool, too.
Shall we geek out?
https://telephoneworld.org/landline-telephone-history/pink-floyds-young-lust-explained-and-demystified/
I haaaaate that the operator “knows” he’s going to hang-up. “This is the United States calling, are we reaching…” and then he hangs up. After she stops talking.
Goddamn server errors.
Anyway “Telephone and Rubber Band” is in one of my favorite Aussie films I can’t link but it’s called Malcolm.
Shall we geek out?
*places magazine on lap to conceal erection*
Two possibilities: it’s blanked out during editing or the operator has a visual indicator on her console.
MF tones are melodious. I could listen to those all day long.
Their label and topic of the song reminded me of these guys. Kick ass band and the drummer is now a woman.
Not unless he got bottom surgery.
Good band, regardless.
Like I said, the drummer is now a woman.
And was long before the current transteria.
I respect anyone who goes all in.
“Not unless he got bottom surgery.”
That seems an odd criteria.
I have high standards.
I give Blaire a pass though.
Odd that someone who calls themselves a woman has a vagina? I get his is your hobby horse, but come on.
*this
“Odd that someone who calls themselves a woman has a vagina?”
Well, no, almost all women have vaginas.
Most MTF are non-op though. Transitioning is mostly about gender expression.
You mean mental illness.
“You mean mental illness.”
No, I do not.
You should. Having a penis, but being quite certain in your head that you are actually a female, is a mental illness. And there is nothing inherently wrong with that, but pretending it’s normal is not healthy for the individual or for society.
Please let me know if I’m wrong. I hear “gender expression” and it sounds to me like, “I want to look like a [boy/girl], so I will make myself look like one.” Is that right? I’m not being snarky. I’m lost in all these terms and phrases.
I saw them live, with God Lives Underwater opening. That was a good time.

This difference is “terrorist” has just become a useful label for governments. E don’t declare enemies anymore, we declare “terrorists”.
The implication being that these people are enemies of all humanity and we can drop all legal limitations in the pursuit of them.

Hopefully there will be two good games tomorrow. Plus I can follow the Eddie during commercial breaks.
There is no way in hell I would try to attend live. There are basically two roads (one from the north and one from the south) that will be parking lots and there is limited parking so people end up walking for miles along the road to reach a view.

This reminds me of Tim Robbins and Sarah Sarandon standing on stage at the Oscars, talking to millions of people on TV about how the Bush administration was denying their First Amendment rights and using the power of the government to silence them.
So what’s the deal with German
sexmetal cruise? Are you still going to be able to come here and sell Hyperbole a STEVE SMITH drink holder? If you don’t come will your brother still come? Will Judge Nap be here?The cruise likely won’t happen, but I am going to Germany…at the same time as your party. I don’t know if NoDakMat will go, but I doubt it. I still want to try and get some STEVE SMITH drink holders your way, we’ll see how that goes. Judge Nap…man, who knows about that guy.
I’m sorry little buddy. I really am. But I can’t turn this opportunity down.
Good luck with your shit porn Nazi trip! *runs away crying*
It’s called Scheisse videos, and it’s ART!!!!11

Haha. Dammit. You got me there.

Great. Now next time I head out west on a rockhounding trek I risk getting waylaid by pyrites.
Wow. For sure. That would not be a gneiss way to end a day.
Don’t ever take anything for granite.
Schist! If you piss off the wrong conglomerate they’ll breccia your ass.
Imma call bullshit.
23:30 in god’s time zone and zoom after dark is already closed.
I can haz sad.
Hyperbole left at 9:45, I kept it up alone until 10:20 to see of anyone showed up.
Well, I even kept the tie on. You know, for the ladies.
And how is swiss going to yell at me for not turning
in my article if he’s not on?
We’re having negronis in consolation.
Ok, it was just because we watched some italian
video about negronis earlier today.
Also, stupid autocorrect should know
both “negroni” and “autocorrect”, but no,
red wavy underlines for me.
I’ll Zoom with you.
You’re not even man enough to give an old fashioned heavy breathing. You just sit there with no audio or video. You cuck.
System of a Down? Fuck. I’m glad I’m not going to your party.
I actually prefer their songs as adopted by Richard Cheese, but he didn’t cover that one.
You should check out Dread Zeppelin
Also, I really should have used this, given the reference to heavy breathing, but it’s rather long.
It’s an Enigma really.

Let me be the First to say: “GAY!”
I’ll Zoom under the condition that MikeS admits he has never been First.
I also need some legal advice.
Always read before you sign.

I thought that was a badge of honor these days.

That’s every year at our house.
Oops, looks like a news site lied to me. Or my early morning eyes read 22 as 23. Always a possibility, sigh.

“Hollywood actor Jeremy Renner has said he broke more than 30 bones in his body when he was accidentally run over by a snow plough on New Year’s Day.”
Man, that’s rough. I can’t even imagine.
I guess its a miracle that he lived through that.
This is the health care i would hope to expect, not a clot shot.
Imagine how bad it would have been had he been run over by a plow instead.
