Has it occurred to anyone we will never get to see commercials like this, or like this ever again?
Freaking clown world.
Mexico gives its citizens exactly what they want: a non-binary option on their passport. Personally, I support the measure because that implies TransMexicans would travel across borders legally.

The answer is no. BRICS cannot save the Argentine economy any more than the EU was able to save Greece. Javier Millei on the other hand, can save them
This sounds like BLM, which if I am not mistaken it still hated by anyone in the western US that’s bothered to look at it with nearly any level of curiosity. Elsewhere in Brazil, I am certain they are all going to die.

LA PAZ, Bolivia (AP) — Pope Francis has sent one of his top
sex crimes investigatorscover-up operatives to Bolivia at a time when the Andean nation is being shaken by an escalating pedophilia scandal involving priests.That il Papa even has a “top sex crimes investigator” tells you all you need to know.
The “bottom sex crimes investigators” were all busy.
You misspelled “instigators.’
Boo, Drake, boo. Everyone boo this man!
If the tops are all busy, just what are the bottoms doing?

Other countries that offer non-binary passports include the United States, Argentina, Austria, Australia, Canada, Colombia, Denmark, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Malta, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Pakistan, India, and Nepal.
It would be interesting to see what happens when a “non-binary” travels to a country that is still populated by serious people. Does he/she/it fly into hysterics and die from being misgendered?
Good question. I’m not sure if we’re still supposed to “respect other cultures as long as they’re not American”.
Since their outrage is mostly performative in the first place, I suspect they are silent.
India?
That’s a little surprising.
Yeah, a lot of places you still fill out forms on entry, that often have an “M/F” box to check.
Here’s hoping hilarity ensues.
For the sake of argument, is there any reason that sex or gender needs to be on a passport?
Determines who gropes you when you clear customs.
Gender? No. Something purely subjective serves no purpose as an identifier.
Sex? Maybe, as it has utility as an identifier. Like race. We all laugh at crime reports where they don’t give the race of the perp when asking the public for leads, after all. Imagine if the “black guy, 6 feet tall, 180 – 200 pounds” was just “a person, 6 feet tall, etc.”

Someone called the guy who rammed a barricade in DC: “Indian U-Haul Hitler”. I laughed.
We need immigrants to do the job as we seem to be fresh out of homegrown white supremacist terrorists.
The joke going around is that white supremacists are now the most inclusive group.
In the old days cops used to carry “drop pistols”.
Now the Feds carry drop swastikas for these kinds of opportunities.
Yeah, a completely empty U-Haul, except for (1) an empty backpack and (2) a Nazi flag.
I’m sold. I expect we’ll get his neo-Nazi social media history as soon as it can be planted on an obscure foreign website.
Given that he’s Indian, he may well have a swastika somewhere, which then gets reported as a Nazi flag.
I saw the picture. It’s got a Nazi flag.
Don’t believe anything you hear, and only half the things you see.
1. Nazi flag, neatly laid out, brand new.
Right hand rule. Its not the “good” swastika.
Actually, vedic swastikas can go either way.
Thats how you libertarian
Yes, we all watched Kama Sutra repeatedly in college.
The whole “there is only 1 thing in this rental, but we must lay it out on the ground so that it can be photographed and published by the media” thing is weird.

I remain unconvinced that U-Haul Hitler actually had the flag (and nothing else) in the truck. If the FBI was, err, “monitoring” him, they knew he was coming and had plenty of time to get a drop flag ready to go.
Radio news made sure he was only identified as a young male from Missouri and is a citizen. That was what they reported

Maybe Pat can chime in here, but through the FedGov firewall I would assume ads that do appear on my work computer are an aggregate of all users on that firewall. If so..FedGov people look up some weird shit.
*Closes work computer, grabs plant, heads for exit*
It’s quite a bit more than just client IP these days (browser fingerprinting, etc., so it shouldn’t be that aggregated.
So, who’s been using your computer?
I was going to say, it kind of depends on the ad network/platform. Some are less intrusive than others in their targeting and data collection. Anything that came by way of Facebook or Google is usually going to be as targeted as they can get it for your device and network.
I’m just happy the ED pills from the early 00’s are close to the generic stage so I don’t have to watch suggestive commercials portrayed by people over 55.

For some reason that reminded me of “Lowered Expectations” from MadTV:

I don’t watch live TV all that often, mostly I watch something streamed, or recorded where I can fast forward through commercials. And on YouTube you can skip after a few seconds.
Youtube keeps giving me commercials in Spanish even though all the videos I watch are in English. Must be some of their super smart algorithms.
My favorite was google serving me a bunch of Dutch ads when I was in France.
uBlock Origin + SponsorBlock and you will never see another YouTube ad again.
There are? I haven’t noticed, at least on broadcast and cable channels.
I have noticed that the 30 second skip option seems to be disappearing from a fair number of services/devices.
On Demand, where I can fast-forward thru everything but the commercials is how I really like to watch my commercials.
El Presidentè Dude Bro inches closer to helicopter jokes.
Just as long as he’s joking about helicoptering journalists.
Well, leftists, so yeah, they’re on the list.
Just when I finally got used to thinking of BLM as Black Lives Matter instead of Bureau of Land Management, he pulls the old switcheroo on me.
*Arms raised in V for VICTORY*
Srsly. Way before I got married, I had an internet friend who was a BLM firefighter and we usually communicated by chat. He said, “If I ghost you, I didn’t ghost you; I went to put out a fire.” Okay. That never happened. Till one night, he types “Fire” and then nothing. And I’m like WTF!!! getting all pissy and whatnot, then I remembered he’s a firefighter.
He also said being a BLM firefighter was the best welfare program in the country. He bred Jack Russell terriers in his off time.
Point: I cannot think of BLM as anything BUT Bureau of Land Management.
The other BLM starts fires too, also.
I’m still not over WWF.
If it don’t involve the Camel Clutch, it ain’t the right one.
But are you over Macho Grande?
I’ll never be over Macho Grande.
I was taking some engineers out to our remote site and was explaining how we have to be aware cause people think its BLM land and they go out shooting (It isn’t) and the Asian engineer looked at me side-eyed and cautiously stated “I didn’t know that BLM claimed land out in Vegas…should we be worried about navigating through it like that place in Seattle during the riots?”
I laughed.
My 20yo XX is texting me anti-woke screeds before work. I suspect I’m the only person in her life she can vent to safely.
One of the things I hate the most about the modern web is that total destruction of quasi-anonymity. Everything is a permanent record attached directly to your real name, phone number, device, email address, or other PIA. There’s no space anymore where a 20 year old kid can just say something controversial, shitpost, explore an idea by taking on a persona, things like that. Back in the late ’90s/early aughts, you weren’t worried that one day the racist or sexist jokes you told, or the hot take you had on a political controversy, or the misogynistic shit you said after a bad breakup while venting to a group of equally immature dudebros was ever going to define who you were as a person. __xX-FreakDaddy6969-Xx__ on a Usenet group or BBS didn’t have to be you. The young people who were born into web 2.0 don’t even understand that concept even once it’s explained to them. Even on their Telegram and Discord groups, they don’t shy away from sharing EVERYTHING about themselves.
Relevant.
I told my kids that the internet is forever. I have come to determine that not only does this generation know that, they want to hang it all out there forever and hope it goes viral. A whole fucking generation of attention whores.
My kid says, “I just want them to stop telling me who they’re having sex with.”
That’s it exactly. As fast as the Overton window shifts left nowadays, I suspect a good many of them are going to eventually come to realize what a terrible fucking idea that is once even the formerly-correct opinions they expressed turn into social poison and begin costing them their careers and reputations, but they’re so inured to living in a panopticon that I honestly don’t know if they’ll ever turn against the monster even once it starts devouring them.
It will never cost them careers. The still-working boomer and GenX middle and upper management is spending its time appeasing the greedy little twats in the workplace, and the twats aren’t workers worth their salary. They haven’t been taught much in high school or college, so they can’t really do the jobs anyway. By the time GenX retires or dies, all the managers will be these people who were catered to and their social media barely registering because they all said the same stupid shit.
This is a twilight time where your social media can wreck you, and only GenX has managed to thread that needle. Soon it won’t be necessary to thread it at all.
And then everything collapses because the people running it are empty shells of human beings. They make nothing important, they contribute nothing of value, they know nothing of worth.
Ah, but today’s GoodThink can easily become BadThink tomorrow. In fact, it pretty much guaranteed to be objectionable at some point as the purity spiral goes asymptotic.
And when the social credit scores roll out, Daddy Gubmint won’t be there to help them, either.
The only thing it might cost them is in credit scores and insurance premiums.
And even if their careers ARE affected, their credit scores affected, their insurance rates affected, they will either not make the connection or they will scream that it’s not fair and government will do something about it.
Can’t get a place to rent? The gummint will force the landlord.
Can’t afford insurance? The gummint will regulate prices and “discriminatory practices.”
They will never suffer the consequences of their actions because they are building a world that will enable them.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it was far fewer of them than we know of. I remember when my son, who is 28 now, and his friends all left Facebook due to their mothers and some fathers friending them. They all went to twitter, and made plans over there for whatever was going on, as they didn’t want family to either try to get them in trouble, or, worse, try to join them and be part of the gang.
You’re right, “Pat”.

The clutch pedal in the Element has been hanging up, recently. It was coming about halfway back up, but I could pull it up with my toe. “I should really look at that,” I said. Coming back from running errands, I pushed thr pedal down and it stayed there. I managed to get it to come up, but the clutch would no longer fully disengage. Those Honda transverse gearboxes do not like clutchless shifting, btw; I found that out a long time ago.. Fortunately, I was on the home stretch. I only had to run one stop sign. I had to stop at the last one, but I started it in first gear and lugged it through the intersection until it fired. Disabled clutch switch, FTW! When I got home and looked. there was a clevis pin lying on the floor right under the pedal. I wonder where the cotter pin which used to hold it in place went.
TFW you have leftover parts after a reconstruction.
Leftover parts!
Wow, that triggered a great memory. My dad and I rebuilt this Lionel train with chugging smoke and whistle sound. The smoke had ceased working years ago, and now the engine didn’t work.
We took everything apart. Dozens of tiny gears and parts. We didn’t find anything obviously wrong. So we put it back together, planning to take it to a repair shop. We had one, important-looking gear left over. No idea where it went.
So, just for giggles we try it out.
The thing works perfectly. It has performed flawlessly since the rebuild 1978. All without the extra part.
That’s happened to me before. I do keep the part. I put it in a little baggie and label it, date it, document it so thoroughly the TSA would let it through, and put it in a safe place. Then I forget where that safe place is. But it doesn’t matter, because the thing works without it.
Just wait until you have a hazmat train derailment due to your incompetent maintenance of the engine and your whole train layout burns down! Then Pete Buttigag decides it is time to show up and fine you biggly.
There is a simple little shear pin on the shifter of my Cobalt that connects it to the transmission.
It only takes removing the PCM and fuse box, and then disassembling the wiring harness to be able to get to it.
Replacing it only requires a second joint, somewhere between your wrist and elbow to get the pin to slide in.
But it ain’t as easy as it sounds.

Out for my evening walk/smoke when a patrol car flies by at about 90mph, lights flashing, silent. I start walking in that direction and 2 minutes later a second patrol car does the same. Now I am really curious, we don’t have any crime to speak of here in paradise. 10 minutes later three cop cars and four cops are surrounding a car, out of which emerges a fairly normal looking if somewhat large dude. Watching from a distance, looks like they’re questioning this guy; he gets in and out of his car a couple of times before he is finally cuffed and spirited away.
This might be the first time our cops have actually cuffed someone, I was surprised at how smoothly it went. I can’t wait to find out the charges. We don’t get much excitement around here.

I think it may have been me, back in the TOS days. There was a back and forth about whether the expression is “toe the line” or “toe the line”, and I think that was my contribution. Although its been a long time.

Hostile environment
The Department of Education has found that a Georgia school district may have created a hostile environment for students by banning certain books from its libraries, the agency’s Office of Civil Rights said.
In late 2021, several parents complained at school board meetings that Forsyth County Schools were carrying books with LGBTQ+ and sexually explicit content. Opponents of the bans said the district’s book screening process deliberately left out non-white and LGBTQ+ authors, the Department of Education said in its memo released late last week.
The agency concluded the district limited its screening process to sexually explicit books and did not violate two laws governing institutions receiving federal aid: Title IX, which prohibits discrimination based on sex, and Title VI, which bars discrimination based on race, color or national origin.
But the Department of Education also said that if a sexually or racially hostile environment was created for students as a result of the process, the district did not do enough to alleviate those concerns.
What the fuck does that even mean? Not too long ago, it was the explicit policy of the education department that students had no rights at all.

The other week I semi-accidentally stole an avocado from a Target.
You see, I don’t usually put the avocado in a plastic bag. I don’t eat the skin and it feels like a waste.
So for whatever reason I put it directly in the drink holder of my shopping cart. That day it was an avocado holder.
I went through self checkout forgetting I had it in there and then wheeled everything out to the car.
As I was putting groceries in, I realized my mistake and that I owed Target 49 cents. However I was late to pick up my kid so I rationalized it was ok. I’m only stealing to feed my family, you see. Guacamole and chips to be specific.
Anyway all I’m saying is that if this keeps up I’m stealing a second avocado.

When the Covid-19 vaccines rolled out, public health officials took great pains to downplay how the vaccines spread from the injection site. Articles with language like this were common: “Most of the mRNA vaccine stayed in the injection site muscle—where you get the shot.”
We now know the truth. The lipid nanoparticles, or LNPs, travel widely throughout the body. These LNPs carry the Frankenstein mRNA that causes the cells to produce spike proteins.
The FDA tried to hide all the documents.
The Japanese biodistribution study confirmed these results within two months of the vaccine release. It’s been complete denial since then.
Hang them all.
Somewhere there is an alternate reality where Trump won the election despite fortification, and all the people who shilled for the vaccine were forced to oppose it because it was Trump’s vaccine.
Say, how’s that drop in fertility going?
Fine thank you for asking
Somehow the expression “Know what I mean, Vern?” slipped out of my mouth today. Just out of the blue.
Then I tried to explain the origin of that phrase to my puzzled kids and it did not go well.
That’s a throwback. My cousin used to use that catchphrase constantly.
The best Ernest movie was the one Homer was watching in the Sideshow Bob Cape Fear spoof.
“Hey Vern, help me get my head outta this terlot.” The real ones were pretty damn bad though.
I suspect they very much do not stand the test of time.
I liked them as an 80s kid though.
Now I like Carlson even more.

“Mr. Carlson will not run for President in 2024 under any circumstances, and therefore your misrepresentations are damaging to Mr. Carlson and defrauding his supporters,” Dhillon wrote in the letter obtained by The Hill. “If you do not immediately cease and desist your efforts to solicit money to ‘draft’ Mr. Carlson, we will use every legal means at our disposal to vindicate his rights and protect his supporters from these misrepresentations.”
Carlson should be hosting The Tonight Show with an obsequious sidekick named Ed Macmahlon.
Heeeeeeeeeeere’s Tucker!
I haven’t seen much of Jack Black lately, maybe he’d take the job.
He voices the villain in the most popular family movie of the past few months.
I think he’s still managing to avoid poverty and obscurity these days.

OFFS!!
I had to use Google for some street view maps yesterday and saw that. First time I’ve actually visited Google proper in probably over a year. I was utterly unsurprised.
