A fine recreation of Ford, really
“Ava DuVernay’s Origin is a fascinating drama, but it should have been a documentary”
“Meet the Disney Imagineer Behind the VR Breakthough That Is the ‘HoloTile'”
“Indiana Jones Game’s Version Of Harrison Ford Is Extremely Hot”
I really don’t want to hear much of anything beyond the response to “How do you plead” from the Great Beagle Torturer.
Stop quizzing him and prosecute his lying ass already.
And then fire up the woodchipper.
“Sentence first, then trial.”
In this case, I’d be tempted. Maybe, since it’s getting hard to find execution drugs, we can try out some new methods… death by sand flea comes to mind.
So essentially the boats. Works for me.

I think we’re all on the same page. It would be one thing if they had one ounce of humility and said “Based on what we observe, this is what we recommend. But that may change as we go.” Just that would have been enough. But no, they had to go full authoritarian, “I am the science”, shut down everyone with a different opinion, and arrest people for breaking their made-up rules. I have zero sympathy for any of them.
Not to mention the cult they created with people insisting on mandatory vaccinations, jail for the un-vaxed (or worse).
I’d settle for prosecution for the obvious end run they did around Gain-of-Function research limitations followed by lying about it and instituting social media censorship on a wide scale (making it easier to “steer the national conversation” across the board) to cover their asses.
But there’s so much to loathe that little bastard for….
A little humility would have gone a long way, but I don’t think they have it in them. A couple times I’ve mentioned a Johns Hopkins pandemic simulation that I read, and it’s very revealing about the assumptions built in to their milieu. They are very much top-down thinkers, which I don’t think lends itself to humility.
I got the impression they had “war gamed” a pandemic for years and this was finally their chance to put it all in play and be the big heroes. You could see how positively giddy some of them were when they got in front of the cameras.
I have long thought that wars are only started in the modern era because these fucks in power want to see if their latest and greatest weapons and tactics will actually work. It’s just one big murderous beta test.

You know who doesn’t want humility, who wants confident authority – the masses. You can’t tell them, well this is the best we know, because they’ll throw you out in favor of the big fat egotistical liar who tells them that he knows and he is in charge. If you aren’t any better than the rest of us – you aren’t a leader.
Everything y’all said in this little section is true. The more you think about it the more egregious it is. What they did is one of the greatest crimes in our nation’s history. They did more damage to our nation than anything else, including wars. Yet, nothing will happen to them. There should be firing squads yet they will live out their normal lives.

He’s too dopey in Star Wars and the Indiana Jones franchise never really did anything for me; I haven’t seen one in decades so I can hardly judge the hotness factor.

I miss the Dark Forces series of games (and the later Jedi ones). I recall there being two different versions of the same game available, with one being more action based, and the other being more traditional adventure game.
I wouldn’t mind if they remastered KOTR 1 and 2 if they swore on the graves of their ancestors not to touch one line of the story (barring putting back material cut due to production deadlines in 2).
Never played Dark Forces all that much — I was more in the X-Wing / Tie Fighter line up (until Alliance, which I bought but could never get into). I picked it up from GOG (I think) and it actually runs… but man… younger me had much better reflexes, I think — because I can barely fly it anymore.
There already is a remake of KOTR being worked on (although apparently has been having… issues).
I disliked the X-Wing/Tie Fighter games since it required succeeding at every mission. I floved the Wing Commander series since you could fail missions, and there were branching story paths.
Yeah, I knew about that — but I thought it was shelved last year. I’ll believe it when I see it — and when folks find out if they rewrote the story for Modern Audiences.
I didn’t mind the mission replay requirements — that was the challenge at the time. (I think there were a couple little minor forks story-wise based on bonus objectives… but it has been decades at this point, so I may be wrong).
/realizes no one under the age of 30 has probably every played any of the in house LucasArts games
Sad.
They’re missing out.

Went woke and found out. No more fat tranny swimsuit issues.
Huh. We were getting free copies sent to my office for no apparent reason, but the most recent one was from May. Maybe this is why we stopped getting it. Now the only free magazine we’re getting is Essence. 🙄
So you’re essential workers?
We get Essence too. So strange.
I prefer JET
Admiral What’s His Name hardest hit…
I cant imagine what they were thinking. One would have to live in one hell of a bubble of woke insanity to think that was a good idea.
I listen to Dan Lebatard sometimes from Miami and he was talking recently about SI getting outed for using AI to write some of their stories. How the mighty have fallen. Maybe ESPN will be next?
Keith Olbermann and the other talent at ESPN are not artificial – that’s pure natural stupidity baby!
What is it with these tumblers? Jugsy has a couple of them.
Is it just the new “must have” accessory ?
Study Finds Over 3 Million Millennial Women Die Of Dehydration Every Day Because They Don’t Have A Stanley Tumbler
Yeah, it’s a big fad. The other day my daughter asked me if I’d ever heard of the “Stanley cup”, and I said, sure, why, and she started telling me a very confusing story about it before I realized she obviously wasn’t talking about the hockey trophy. I guess it’s one of those things everybody has to have, even thought it’s practically identical to the hundreds of other brand cups just like it.
Maybe the pet rocks that kept away the Beanie Baby tigers can be repurposed. 😉
Since all the Tamogatchis (however you spelled that) are dead….
I watched the Beanie Baby documentary, which Im told, while based on facts, mostly true.
Wasnt a bad way to kill 90 minutes.
I have a Stanley cup, but not because of all the fad stuff. It’s the first cup that I found that checked all of the boxes I wanted (low price, spill proof, no stupid plastic flappy thing to retain the lid, no gummy bite valve that will start leaking in a few months, enough volume that I don’t have to refill every 5 minutes, carry handle) .
It’s also not one of the ones all the ladies fawn over. My wife has a couple of them and I can’t understand why they’re popular. They’re objectively inferior to many other cups on the market.
Yeah- Jugsy keeps trying to sell me on one. Design-wise, its everything I dont need to haul up a smokestack.
Heavy and bulky isnt what you want for a 100’+ climb, I dont care how many days it keeps shit cold.
No joke. I use the Contigo Autoseal cups because they don’t leak and are easy to use. It’s only going to have coffee in it for a couple hours, tops.
I have a contigo from ca. 2008 thats still going strong. The problems with it are that it keeps things too hot for my normal use case (it’s still undrinkably hot an hour later) and it isn’t entirely clear where the “fill to” line is, resulting in hot coffee bubbling out on occasion.
As a result, I have a few yetis that I got for free that I use for coffee when staying at home, and a couple of contigos of a different design for when I’m on the road.
@tres – I have one of these in 36oz. I paid roughly $25 on Woot. Lid clips into the handle when you open it. So far I’ve been happy with it.

There is a viral video where one survives a car fire.
Start the weekend on an uplifting note:
This Is the Real America
That probably would have been a better idea — but nooooo… I decided to start reading Schlichter’s The Attack — and the description of blocking an interstate then having terrorists just wandering down the lanes killing everyone they can in their cars is too plausible for me to be in a good mood now. So I’m snarking instead.
That probably wouldn’t work well here. In Grant Parish one just assumes everyone is armed because….everyone is armed.
That is one of the things that got me about the Hamas attack on Israel. The victims were unarmed. I vaguely remember that was one encounter where the victims were armed and they managed to hold out and even kill some of the fucks that were attacking them.
If I had the money I would buy a million AR’s, an extra mag and 100 rounds each and pass them out to any Israelite that wanted one. The first Govt fuck that tells me I cant do that gun control yada yada would get his ass kicked.
Yup — I had to assume it was probably in an urban area / overpass (because people would start damned well driving down the median or getting enough room to start running over the gunmen otherwise) and a disarmed or at least “automotive carry strongly discouraged” area of the country.
I wonder how far they would get in Arizona before a gunfight broke out. I’m guessing, not far. And, to the video Fatty posted above, I don’t think it would be long at all before they were under fire from multiple opponents, as people further down the line heard the gunfire and figured out something was up.
Don’t forget – Israel, in an act of bonecrushing stupidity, disarmed their population. Including, I believe, off-duty IDF members and reservists. Without that, Hamas wouldn’t have done nearly the damage.
True — and don’t forget, there are large chunks of our country which have tried to do the same, and even in areas where folks have guns – carrying them to the mall or the grocery store is more rare.
The premise of the book is a October 7th ramped up to the extreme — planning and funding by Iran, foot soldiers from wherever they can get them — all funneled as “asylum seekers” through the border, kept in small cells with no real knowledge and little training beyond “We’ll give y’all AKs, go kill and rape and cause as much havoc as you can”. They aren’t expected to live very long — just to overwhelm the usual domestic authorities and stream it on the net to show America is weak. (And that’s Day One… Two and Three shift targets to keep things off balance).
With enough martyr wannabes and the effectively open border? Yeah, it would be an ugly, ugly mess I believe
Clancy posited something similar in Teeth of the Tiger.
The terrorists who attacked an Arizona mall were taken out by deputies and locals.
Excellent. And true. I grew up and still live in that world.
Two guys and myself helped a young couple out of a ditch about three months ago. None of us had ever met before.
I have a tow chain and jumper cables in my truck all the time. Haven’t had to use them for a long time but OTOH I don’t get out much.
Thanks Fatty, that’s the America I remember and still recognize in Deplorable Country.
That picture of Foochy makes me want to garotte him.
That guy is as crazy as a shithouse rat.
My grandfather had one of those black Stanley lunch boxes with the thermos in the lid. My grandmother packed his lunch in it every day.

Ghost planes
A small airplane that crashed into the ocean off the California coast on Sunday was constructed piece by piece over nearly a decade, one of tens of thousands of home-built aircraft that are part of a high-flying hobby taking off across the country.
Federal investigators said they believe four people were aboard the single-engine Cozy Mark IV when it went down in the evening just south of San Francisco. No survivors were found and only one body had been recovered from the waters near Half Moon Bay and identified as of Thursday.
——-
There have been no official indications of what went wrong, but a witness reported hearing an engine losing power and cutting out.
Thane Ostroth, a retired dentist who began building the aircraft in 1999 and flying it in 2008, said he sold the plane last year to a young, experienced and enthusiastic pilot from Australia for around $100,000, which is about what he estimated went into the project over the decades.
Nobody but Boeing should be allowed to build airplanes.
Surprised it wasn’t a Mooney.
Has Biden admitted to shooting it down?
They really are pushing the it crashed because it was home built aren’t they?
They dust that story off every time an experimental aircraft has an issue.
Good news is John Denver is now too old a story to mention.
Individuals can’t build things. Only collectives can.
Damn. Not the usual kind of Cessna making an emergency highway landing.

Based on where it ended up, I’d guess engine failure on takeoff and they didn’t have enough altitude to make it back around to land. That’s right where they’d be going downwind.
To circle back to the earlier article, one of the Aldis we used to go to is right there.
You’ve got an Aldi in the middle of the highway? :-p
I’m telling you it’s the Biden administration.
They have their collective fingers on the trigger because they can ill afford another Chinese Spy Ballooon(tm) incident.

These admissions are damning, and hopefully, they mark the beginning of a much larger mea culpa from Fauci and his longtime superior, Dr. Francis Collins, the previous director of the National Institutes of Health.
Mea Culpa from Fauci? HAH!
He’s sorry he couldn’t get more people fired or jailed for resisting his edicts.
Oh.
Good point. I should have thought of that.
Thanks to his heterosexual AIDS-scare in the 80s, that little sawed-off cocksucker cost me a lot of unprotected, bareback, sex.
Ill put a bullet between his eyes for that reason alone.
I’ve made the same complaint, but I’m not sure how successful I would have been even if I was born a decade earlier.

Some are bases are really strict, other less so.
Additional supporting documentation for (how stupid people are) the cult that Fauci created.
On the other hand, maybe a lot of doctors hoping for grant money see the risk to their phoney jobs.
