I am calling on the fine people of this community to help me out here. NPR Lady has pretty much resigned herself to the idea that she’s involved with a (gasp!) libertarian. However… she absolutely hates the “NPR Lady” nickname. And honestly, though I don’t hate it, there’s ambiguity because I used that term for everyone I’ve dated in the past year. And (I say somewhat abashedly), this one might stick around for a while and deserves a unique sobriquet. So I’m taking suggestions. She’s very much a save-the-world type, free spirited, loves her weed and music, avid and skilled dancer, very intelligent, and almost as short as Banjos. So go with that description.
And we’ll go with birthdays, including the subject of one of my favorite poems; the ancestor of Pearson; a rather fringe character; the Yin to Lucas’s Yang; Spudalicious’s spirit animal; a hero of mine who died before I could see him in action; a vastly overlooked guitarist, and the recent subject of Old Guy Music; Larry David’s alter ego; and a pioneer of combining music with activism, thus making shitty music and moronic activism.

UAW strike is blowing up used car prices again. Just when it looked like there might be some relief.
Looking at the new car side, and it’s been fucked for so long, I’m not sure it will ever be normal. Makers have been
loading updumping inventory. Meanwhile, some dealers are still applying markups on top of the msrp increases…Manufacturers aren’t really happy about the dealer gouging and the impact on the brand and customer satisfaction.
Have they done something about it?
You know how dealer franchise and state lobby works. Depends on state and dealer.
They will mess with allocations and discretionary spend. But they really don’t have a ton of options. So mostly behind the scenes soft power.

“Just like with breasts, there is a wide variation in the shape and size of labia,” Dr. Lyndsey Harper, founder of sexual wellness app Rosy, tells Yahoo Life. “They can be short, long, uneven and everything in-between. There is no perfect size and shape of labia.”

Wasn’t this pretty obvious from the NSFW photos that Q used to post?
“There is no perfect size and shape of labia”
Well, that just ain’t true.
Every guy… and probably most every lesbian too…. knows that the perfectly sized and shaped labia are the ones attached to the lady who says “yes. Yes, I will have sex with you.”
All the others probably are pretty danged perfect too… but they really don’t count.

Members of the US Congress are not to be molested during their duties. It’s a duty to be “available” to their constituents, and what says “available” more than “open for bribes?”
Or… maybe they just outnumber everyone else and vote for “their own”. Oh, I guess that is “progressive” now.
As just as I suspected, this has nothing to do with the narrative the “progressives” are attempting to set up.

And from Taibbi, a public post that is a deep drink of disturbing.
The innumerable cut-outs for various programs, contractors, and NGOs that all spy on us are going to be next to impossible to uproot without dismantling the federal government itself.
It all starts with Google and their collection methodology for advertising. The almighty dollar has driven more of this than any desire for power.
Fair observation, but it’s expanded way beyond that now.
Apparently some semblance of ‘it cant happen here’ still remains in the American mind. It can happen here and it is happening right now right in front of our noses.
It is disturbing but not surprising.
Strip away all of the bullshit and let’s see what is left.
Ex.: I think it was Rep Spartz during Garland’s grilling in front of congress who got him cold. She pointed out that no matter how many answers and excuses he had, no matter how he protested that the DOJ is as pure as the driven snow the end result of his leadership is that Americans are scared of him and of his department in the same way that Soviet citizens were afraid of the KGB.
No matter how many answers excuses, explanations and protestations this administration puts forward the end result of their border policy will be the end of our country as we know it. It simply doesn’t matter how many times they tell us to believe them and not our own lying eyes that is the result of applying their policies.
I suspect the average American just cant admit to themselves what they are seeing happen in real time. It is too monstrous, too frightening. We still have too much to lose but that will change soon.
Wait, Google’s defense was “We’re not ratting out people interested in human rights to the ChiComs, we’re ratting them out to the CIA?”
The thing that is terrifying me is that nobody seems to care.
I mean, there’s us weirdo libertarians. And a few real conservatives. And a tiny handful of true liberals.
And that is all.

Yanno, regular people who aren’t paying attention get shat upon a lot around here.
Regular people are busy surviving and they know what the economy is doing to their bottom line and they know the gummint’s got something to do with it;they just don’t know what and they don’t have the bandwidth to go searching obscure conspiracy websites, not knowing what they’re looking for (my personal google-fu is shit) and may not have the life experience or education to make connections if they do find them.
And then let’s say they do find them and do make the connections and then get outraged. What are they supposed to do about it? They’re struggling to make rent and groceries and gas, wages aren’t going up, Now they KNOW that their vote doesn’t count for shit and they feel more powerless than they felt before they started looking and making connections.
Now what?
They’re still spending their time working and trying to enjoy their lives with their families (or not). But now instead of vaguely suspecting it’s hopeless, now they KNOW it’s hopeless.
People have survival concerns, yo. Most people don’t have the bandwidth for anything more than “Thanks, Brandon.”
So I wrote a bit on this, but I damn stuck trying to make a non-fatalistic follow-on piece.
I need to think on this piece a bit before commenting too much.
At first skim, I would just say that people aren’t generally content. Contentment (perhaps a substitute word for happiness) is, I think, aspirational.
I also agree that it’s difficult not to slide into fatalism.
One thing I explore in 1520 Main is the idea of savings (of money) being hope for a nebulous, vague future that you could maybe have, when, like Marina, you really never thought about having any kind of future at all. [This comes up later with Marina’s real mother, but that’s not really a spoiler.] It’s also why romance novels exist—they are hope for a future with someone.
People need hope, and they don’t get that keeping up on shit and knowing it’s hopeless, so yeah, hard to find a non-fatalist way to follow that up would be difficult.
*Ron’s Friday midday post has entered the chat*
And let’s not forget that the people trying to tell them what’s going on in plain language are actively being suppressed by governments and big tech, so whether they can find these voices or not is iffy.
THEN you have intergenerational conditioning which boxes you in from birth. IF you can think past that, you’re one in a million. That is the human condition. Who said “abject poverty is the natural state of mankind”? We didn’t know any better until thie Grand Experiment which seems to be coming to an end.
(I will admit that I’m very bitter right now because the ONE family member I thought I could depend upon to argue in good faith and listen will not. He just shouts over me with nonsense [not even talking points, just nonsense] and will NOT believe a word I say, even when backed up by proof, because my “proof is suspect.” And that’s IF he doesn’t shout over me first.)
There are a lot of things going on here in people’s lives that they should be given some grace for, in not knowing what’s going on. Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is a thing.
I think you misread that – it was more why be disturbed by ratting them out to the ChiComs when we’re already doing the same with the US national security apparatus. See, we aren’t evil – we’ll fuck over everyone equally.

One of my favorite things in life since moving to Florida was talking to my mom when they were hunkered down for a snowstorm. I’d listen to her talk about how they have plenty of bread and milk and salt, and how cold it is…

Ah…. good times.
I get the impression Poland is engaging in the same sort of tactics that Greg Abbott is; namely, an attempt to get Brussels (which hates the current Polish government and I wouldn’t put it past them to deliberately engage in policies that damage Poland for having elected the wrong people) to look at what several central European countries see as the negative consequences of the “imports” of a new tranche of cheap agricultural products.
In theory, these crops are supposed to be transited through Europe to bypass the Black Sea which was used to sell Ukrainian grain to third world countries. Grain being fungible, however, it’s allegedly winding up on the domestic European markets and pushing down the prices local farmers can get (which I’d guess are inflated by the Common Agricultural Policy). The current Polish government is heavily dependent on the rural regions, so pushing back against the imports is also liable to be an effort to fire up their base.
Poland and the Baltic states more than anyone else have experience with Russian aggression. All those third world illegal immigrants Belarus just let transit their country on their way to invade Poland (TW: BBC link) didn’t just get to a landlocked country like Belarus organically.

The Pitfalls of Arrogance
An unpleasant encounter with a critic, and how we can learn better argumentation from it.
https://planetocracy.substack.com/p/the-pitfalls-of-arrogance?sd=pf
There are plenty of people who criticise the concept of space colonisation. Some are more reasonable than others. Often, unfortunately, a lot of critics are aggressive, ill-informed and unpleasant. I have locked horns with one such person recently.
Philip Ball wrote a scathing attack on the concept of space colonisation in the Guardian, and I in turn picked it apart in a Twitter post. Ball was unhappy at this and attempted a counter rebuttal, which honestly was even worse than the original Guardian article – in terms of factual errors, quality of argument, and tone.

But Jey Rence B Quilario was this week accused of heading a doomsday cult where ‘rape, sexual violence, child abuse, forced marriage was perpetrated on minors’.
Quilario, who claims to be a reincarnation of Jesus, was named using congressional privilege as well as his group in connection to ‘widespread exploitation’.

“In the middle of a never-ending war with Russia, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky has asked Serbian Satanist Marina Abramovic to become an “Ambassador” for the war-torn country as reported by the UK Telegraph….
Now, apparently, the war effort rests in the hands of a 76-year-old self-described ‘artist’ most famous for holding severed, bloody, goat heads. “An attack on Ukraine is an attack on humanity and has to be stopped,” Abramovic has said….
She was briefly a featured artist for Microsoft in 2020 until her ties to Satan became too much even for a company responsible for Windows ME.
Abramovic has been photographed in front of a painting by Thomas Lawrence titled “Satan Summoning his Legions” with controversial left-wing billionaire Jacob Rothschild. Abramovich also had transgressive art installations she called “Spirit Cooking” in 1996 that featured the consumption of bodily fluids while chanting phrases that some allege are Satanic. In 2016, when Wikileaks published the Podesta Archive of emails, Clinton advisor and powerful left-wing operator John Podesta was revealed to be attending “Spirit Cooking” meals with Abramovic as late as 2015.”

Craftsmanship is what I think of when I see the UAW logo.
And as usual, “fair” is being used for the sake brevity versus the more accurate “this is what I want”.
I’ve boycotted anything built by the UAW ever since I bought my first Toyota and realized some brands don’t constantly break down due to shoddy design or workmanship.
Melanie Haber?
Audrey Farber?
how about
Betty Jo Bialowski?
Why is she currently called “NPR Lady”? Does she spout lines she heard on NPR?
Yes. All of his post-SP ladies have been NPR-spouting lefties.
Akschually, I think I came up with that.
You did.
Almost all of the plethora of women I dated during the search for Mrs. Prole were leftists, though not by design, minus the ones who were screechy about their men having to be in lockstep with them politically.
Y’all are better men than I, Gunga Dins. I couldn’t deal with being in a mixed politics marriage.
We just avoid talking about politics, for the most part. Plenty of other stuff in common. If you can agree to disagree, that’s half the battle.
“Snuggle Buddy” is the substitute for “NPR Lady” I’d suggest.
Headline I just saw:
‘California moves to allow insurance companies to factor in climate change risk’
Is that what you call it when you charge higher premiums to insure houses out in the trees with no readily available fire suppression?
I would avoid an insurer who based their rates on such bullshit instead of actual risk based on actuarial analysis. Projectuarial analysis seems like a piss poor substitute for “actuarial”.
Though, if using those buzzwords was just a way to get the insurance commissioner to not reject a needed rate increase, then good on them.
You could always call her Little Queenie
If the Ukraine War is reframed as a conflict over your right to tell Polish jokes, I think the aid package could be passed very quickly
