No love for Star Control 2 (link goes to open source port of the game) from Toys from Bob?
The hurdy gurdy is purdy.
That was an awesome video. Never seen one played before.
Hurdy Gurdy is a droning device. It was killed off (in common use) by the bagpipes.
You know what else is a droning device?

—“That was an awesome video. Never seen one played before.”—
I agree 100%. For some reason, I had always thought a Hurdy Gurdy was that organ box that the monkey guy in the street played in old movies and cartoons. The beauty and complexity of the instrument and the skill of the player is amazing (but I know nothing about Hurdy Gurdys, just my opinion.)
I’m still waiting for the sequel to Corvette Summer.
Anybody playing Helldivers II? I’ve been thinking about joining up. I think I’ve got what it takes to be a Citizen.
Yes.
Run, don’t walk, civilian.
I got the impression it was multiplayer, which makes it an ungame to me.
That’s a pet peeve of mine as well. Not into multiplayer games. I game for quiet time.
I think that’s optional, though it’s supposed to be a lot more fun if you team up.
It is and it is.
From the dead thread:
“trshmnstr on March 1, 2024 at 1:30 pm
It wasn’t true, even at the time. Plenty of people have caught OG covid after clot shotting it.”
My experience, with the people I personally know, is that the more shots they take, the more likely they are to get COVID or something worse.
Me: zero shots. No COVID. The worst outcome I’ve suffered is from people trying to ostracize or otherwise punish me for my noncompliance.
One of my wife’s brothers: All the shots. On his third bout of COVID.
My daughter’s boyfriend: Healthy young athletic guy. All the shots. Got a stroke that would have killed him, except for my daughter giving him emergency treatment.
Yup, similar observation here. We’ve had covid once confirmed, likely twice, possibly three times in the trash can. One bout of it was akin to a moderate flu. I remember taking off work an hour early to take a nap. The only lingering effect was the weird taste. The rest of the times were on par with a bad cold, if they were even covid.
Meanwhile, I know of people roughly same age still battling “long covid”.
I was born with a condition called dick, and it’s persisted my entire life.
Same here, and ditto on the no shots while watching others go down like dominos.
I’ve heard something similar from a lot of people. They had covid once, got all the shots and boosters, then caught it again and it was MUCH worse the second time. This is what really woke people up about the shots, and why hardly anyone is getting boosters. Their lived reality directly contradicted the narrative. I’m hoping people are experiencing the same thing with the economy and the border.
Had COVID late late late in the game, never shot, never boosted. It was about the strength of a moderate cold. I mean, well, it IS a cold, after all.
Tangentially, I’m sick of people being broadly labeled “anti-vax” when their only objection is to the COVID vax (and maybe the HPV vax for their prepubescent kids). People aren’t “anti-vax.” They’re anti-that-one-very-specific-experimental-vax.
Hep B for newborns? It was initially only intended for the babies of drug addicts, but somehow found its way to the schedule for everyone.
The broad “anti-vax” label is intentional. Can’t have people looking too closely at the others. Some of the vaccines are critical, some are helpful, some are useless, some cause more adverse events than they provide benefits.
Opposition to mandatory vaccinations gets labeled ‘anti-vax’ in a lot of places.
I tested once for Covid, and it was positive. All I had was some chills and plugged ears. They forced me to not go to work for a week.
Here’s some metal with a hurdy gurdy.

Of course Ron beats me to it. Great minds and all that.

Godly wrath and vengeance
“You senselessly took the life of Kaylin Gillis and you have the gall to sit here and talk about how you plan to finish up the work on your house and race motocross in the future. You don’t deserve that. What would make you think that you deserve those things?”
In killing Gillis, the judge said, Monahan “took away a friend, you took away a girlfriend, you took away a daughter, a granddaughter and a sibling. You took away so much unrealized potential, her potential to enrich other people’s lives and to contribute to our society.”
Michelini added, “Any remorse you have isn’t for the harm you’ve caused. The only regret you have is that you’re finally facing the consequences for your actions. You murdered Kaylin Gillis. You shot at a car full of people and you didn’t care what would happen and you repeatedly lied about it. You deserve to spend the maximum time in prison allowable under our law, and I don’t make this decision because it’s easy. I make it because it’s what’s deserved. I make it because it’s what’s just.”
You have no legitimate right to defense of your property or person.
Are we really going to defend a guy who just opened fire because a car pulled onto his property? I think I’m allowed to call him a reckless asshole.
No.
Could there be more to the story than what’s reported? I’m not familiar with this one, but I remember the guy in Florida was portrayed by the media as just a kid who loved skittles and went out for a walk to buy more.
Yeah, he’s a liar too.
https://www.news10.com/news/kevin-monahan-takes-the-stand-in-his-own-defense/
Doesn’t look like they were there for anything other than what they said. The dude told a bunch of different stories about what happened, which probably didn’t help his case any.
Mind you it was several cars and motorcycle so I get him being on edge. I’d lay money that the Harley was equipped with loud pipes saves lives.
However, that doesn’t mean you get to shoot first and aske questions later. So yes, reckless asshole.
I read a few stories on it, never could see any reason to open fire. News stories by nature leave things out. Still, how in the Hell do you start shooting into a car in your driveway? Where is the threat? Reckless asshole it is.
Gillis was fatally shot just days after a Black teenager in Kansas City was shot twice by a White homeowner after going to the wrong address to pick up his siblings. Both cases made national headlines.
Just had to throw that completely unrelated case in there to rile people up, huh? Fuck you, CNN.
“…legitimate right to defense of your property or person.”
From what I read there I am not seeing a justifiable shooting. I see 2nd degree murder.
Most charitable I can be is…there is some previous event not mentioned causing him to be afraid?
I should also add the NYS doesnt exactly have a lot of credibility in this area. Piss on your credibility and you have no credibility.
…And then there is what Fatty says about CNN. Fuck those lying cunts.
Yeah, between a NYS judge and CNN “journalism”, I’m just gonna keep quiet on this one for now.

Jordan said the stern rebuke from the court on Friday “showed what the vast majority of people who’ve paid attention to this view this as: It was the act of an angry, selfish male who had no regard for the life of other people.”
“The judge was spot on – that he is a grave risk to society and if he’s released back into society he would do it yet again,” said Jordan, referring to Monahan.
The guy is a fucking idiot, but he’s not some sort of mass murderer snatching little children from their beds and eating them. He didn’t hunt that girl gown and blast her while she was eating her cocoa puffs.
Love the choice of words….replace the word ‘male’ with ‘nigger’ and see what reaction we get.
It looks to me like there are a lot of assholes involved in this story.
Gillis was fatally shot just days after a Black teenager in Kansas City was shot twice by a White homeowner after going to the wrong address to pick up his siblings. Both cases made national headlines.
An unmistakeable nationwide pattern of rage-induced white male mayhem.
Try as the media did, this happened twice in a year. Not a trend.
Whycome?
Two weeks ago, Green announced his retirement, insisting that Congress was “broken,” and it was “time for me to return home.” Two weeks later, as Roll Call reported, the congressman changed his mind.
Given his intraparty support, and his Tennessee district’s partisan leanings, it’s very likely that Green will be re-elected and won’t pay a meaningful price for his recent vacillating.
Stepping back, it’s not common for members of Congress to announce their departures, only to reverse course soon after, though in recent months, it’s happened with unusual frequency.
——-
When a member of Congress retires, and then soon after unretires, it’s weird. When several members do it, it’s a reminder that this Congress really isn’t normal.
It’s a dadgum mystery. There is no explanation possible. Their party colleagues would never urge them to reconsider the effects of their decisions on the razor thin majority the Republicans are desperately clinging to.

In response to RJ’s (not sure if serious) offer from the dead thread: I wear the short sleeve shirt, tie, and shoes from my old Army dress uniform to job interviews. Never understood why shiny shoes impress people, but I might as well wear them if I have them already.
If RJ lives near Gainesville, FL, he could meet up with me and shpip sometime. BrettL and another glib or two also live in the Meth Lab of Democracy if I remember right.
I remember being in the Army and having some overweight medic who used spice and hacked constantly suggest they needed to bring back the shiny boots as part of the uniform because it showed who really cared.
Shining boots does not win wars. There is no correlation between shiny boots and what wins wars. There is very little that occurs during peace times that has to do with winning the next war and time and time again this country has to learn that lesson the hard way. The wrong sorts of leadership moves up the ranks based on shit that doesn’t matter, mainly being political kiss asses from the gold’ol boy network, and then those guys fuck up and slowly get replaced by generals who are slightly more competent than they are. Once in a while you get a Patton.
Heh, I immediately thought of Sky Marshal Dienes being replaced by Tehat Maru. The Federation can ill afford another Klendathu.
Yes. Chiang Kai Shek said the best-dressed soldiers are always in the rear. Patton had a lot in common with Grant and Sherman. Grant was famous for dressing simply at a time when many generals did not. He wore muddy boots as he accepted the immaculately dressed Lee’s surrender.
an article for you: https://johntreed.com/blogs/john-t-reed-s-blog-about-military-matters/60879683-the-u-s-military-s-marathon-30-year-single-elimination-suck-up-tournament-or-how-america-selects-its-generals
Also, I did remember to wear pants to the interview.
The school I interviewed at today is next to an emu farm, which is one of least weird things that can be near a school in Florida. Also, they just called me back to ask me to fill out some form. I’m sure they want to hire me. Yay. Soon I will rejoin the ranks of the tax cattle, at least as farm as Uncle Sam is concerned. I’ll be a state employee, but Florida has no state income tax.
I polish my leather boots & shoes and find starched shirts more comfortable. And I make my rack every morning before I go to work.
There’s a time and place for everything.
I’m still a shoe shining nut. The Marines made me psycho about it. (Also laces must be left over right).
When I used to work in an office, I always got comments from kids about shiny shoes. And more than a few of them came by to find out how to do it because they had to go to a wedding or something where they couldn’t wear sneakers. (Also tie tying advice).
I wasn’t a spiffy Marine at all, but shoe shining seemed easy enough.
I was always told that the purpose of shining, just like cleaning the shit out of everything else, was to be able to easily determine usability and serviceability of a given issued item.
I am serious. Would like to meet all of you someday. I have mostly long sleeves, and lots of ties. I vacation in Panama City Beach yearly. Next Zoom We can exchange info and I will arrange some mailing.
Huzzah! I have a 42-inch chest, so whatever shirts you want to give me may not fit. I’ll probably just buy a few button-up shirts from a thrift store after they hire me. It appears I have been slated to teach “math for college” once more. They were pleased when I said I don’t mind teaching remedial students. I’d rather be an NSA code breaker, but it’s been 2.5 years since I applied to that job. Of course, alcohol abuse is a common disqualifier for such work, and my track record on that is not good.
I look forward to doing my impression of Jaime Escalante. How do I reach *these kids*?
My arm span is also close to my below average height, so the sleeves will probably be too long unless you are also 5’4.
My old shirts are for a 5’10” space alien with long arms. You can roll them up.
Now I’m reminded of my HS algebra teacher – sleeves rolled up, usually hungover. Took his first class of the day, just be quiet, turn in your homework and you had it made.

Unity agenda
The president will make the case that he is on the side of the public, the official added, citing efforts to lower costs, proposals to increase taxes on wealthy Americans and corporations, measures to protect democracy and reproductive health care, and the focus on his unity agenda, which includes ending cancer, protecting minors from big tech, aiding veterans and curbing fentanyl.
If you’re not with him, you’re a target.
Efforts, proposals, measures. But not results.
Joe just wants to end cancer. Why are you people so pro-cancer?
Vote for Pedro and all of your wildest dreams will come true.
Team Tammy for the win:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eh3TXsx8B40
Start by following election procedures that you recommend in every country except the United States, where you instead practice the opposite.
Psst. “reproductive health care” is not a federal issue and neither is most of that other flapdoodle.
WTF has he ever done to curb fentanyl?
Well TOK, he has completely fucked up absolutely everything he has touched. That is not easy. A guy with a 100% record deserves some credit, doesnt he?
Joe is on track to be the first president not just to lose 2 wars, but to lose 2 wars in a single term. Even that clod LBJ managed to avoid being scapegoated for the defeat in Vietnam.
It’s like a weird reverse game of musical chairs. The goal is to be eliminated before the music stops for the last time. In this case, the goal is to be out of office before the war is lost.

I saw some speech the other day. ‘Puddin’ Joe doesnt really describe what I saw.
I have the vaguest memory of some movie where the supreme leader is a fictional character that no one ever really sees. Word of his whereabouts and activities are passed on through spokespeople and he is only glimpsed occasionally as an actor moving between house/car/plane/office but he never speaks publicly.

I have to admit that the fact that they had CBS News on site for the initial drilling makes me a bit suspicious. Wouldn’t be at all surprised if this was a giant scam where they used credulous journalos to dupe investors.
Since they poked a hole in it, now its all going to leak out.

U.S. interest payments on its debt are set to exceed defense spending. Should we be worried?
——-
Americans are familiar with the impact of higher interest rates, which are making it more expensive to carry credit card debt or buy homes and cars. But the federal government is also getting walloped: Spending on interest on U.S. debt is now the fastest growing part of the budget, and even projected to overtake national spending on defense this year.
Federal spending on interest payments is forecast to hit $870 billion this year — exceeding the $822 billion that the nation will spend on defense in 2024, according to a recent analysis by the Congressional Budget Office. This year’s outlay for interest payments represents a 32% increase from last year’s $659 billion in interest expense.
To be sure, higher interest rates aren’t the only factor raising the cost of servicing the country’s debt. Over the last decade, the U.S. has almost doubled its outstanding debt, which surged to $33 trillion last year from $17 trillion in 2014, according to Treasury data.
to be sure. But every penny was absolutely necessary for the good of the nation.
The nation’s ballooning debt stems chiefly from tax cuts enacted by former President Donald Trump in 2017, as well as the surge in federal aid to keep the economy afloat during the pandemic (assistance authorized by both Trump and President Joe Biden). On top of that, with the Federal Reserve turning to its most effective anti-inflation tool — higher interest rates — the U.S. is paying more for its growing pile of debt.
Haha, never even saw it coming, did you?
Wow. That’s quite the assertion.
🙄

from a current Facebook comment battle:

In that email Fauci says most of what I said above. Masks stop you spreading the virus to others if you have it without knowing. if Newsweek headline writers think devices which stop you killing old people are ineffective at the important stuff, that says something about the values of people at Newsweek. Finally, fauci’s personal opinions early in a pandemic aren’t that interesting as science. We don’t need extra proof that Fauci lied: we do need better proof than this that masks offer zero protection; and all I said in my comments above was that the protection masks offer the wearer isn’t the main point of wearing them, and also probably isn’t zero.
***
I was tempted to ask if him if he plans on wearing a mask the next time he gets pink eye, but I decided to let him have the last word.
“…we do need better proof than this that masks offer zero protection…”
No, we dont. We have known this for over 100 years. Since then dozens of studies have been done all showing either A) They dont work or B) They dont work and increase your chances of catching a bug.
If the mountains of evidence we already have is not enough more won’t make any difference.
Masks dont work.
EVs dont work.
We cannot wish our fantasies into reality. It doesnt work like that.

Mitch McConnell’s sister-in-law Angela Chao’s car crash death is being investigated as a CRIME: ‘This was not a typical accident’
I’ve seen the headlines for the past week or so.
The story kept changing, I think.
recently in “kill, kill, kill da white man” news:
https://www.npr.org/2024/03/01/1235376563/removed-during-protests-louisvilles-statue-of-king-louis-xvi-is-still-in-limbo
***
Local leaders in Louisville, Ky. are trying to figure out what to do with a statue of its namesake, King Louis XVI of France, nearly four years after it was moved into storage.
The 200-year-old statue was damaged during protests over the police killing of Breonna Taylor in 2020. Protests broke out across the country that summer, forcing local governments to address long-standing racial disparities and police misconduct. It also caused them to rethink controversial monuments.
***
The city is named after the guy because France under his leadership helped the US win its independence. Replacing it with a statue of Mama Lookabubuday will do nothing to prevent police brutality.
Ona related note, the Sons of the Confederate Veterans should have raised funds to buy up all the statues of Southron generals and then build a park in which to put them, if they really cared about statues.
Same for Founding Father statues.
Put them somewhere beyond the reach of the modern iconoclasts until the current cultural fads go away.
I don’t think anyone thought of that in time for some of the statues. Also some cities refused to sell the statues, it was their property, they could do what they wanted.
It wasn’t a money thing for the cities who allowed this. They wanted the statues fucking destroyed. It was less about the statues being in the wrong place than the statues existing at all.
So I don’t think that would have worked.
Well, it makes sense, since Louis XVI initiated an unbroken chain of events that directly led to the death of Taylor. Or something.
Anyone still ’round?
I’m glad the week is over. I have a psychiatrist appointment on Sun at 5pm. Strange hours, but cool. Tuesday I have the day off work. Instead, I’m going to the Indy Zoo’s job fair. Resume’s ready. They certainly know me. I’ve applied and chatted with folk, but never worked out. Then another psych appointment, but whatever. The two newspaper gigs don’t seem like they’ll work out. One, I voluntarily withdrew from. Haven’t heard from the other. They deserve an email.
Well. My brain feels less cloudy. I gotta get my game on for the zoo. That part comes easy to me, though I know I’m acting. I love how when my parents put me in acting class in 2nd grade I hated the monologues they had for us. I did both Gollum and Smeagol’s riddles in the dark. I wish I had video of that. Meh!
Si!
