The NHL playoff teams are set, as Montreal grabbed the last one on the last night of the season. Boo! Baseball is just plugging along this year, with few teams getting off to hot starts. The Rockies and White Sox, on the other hand…geez. That’s bad. Across the pond, Arsenal went to the Bernebeau and burned Real’s Euro hopes to the ground. And Inter dumped Bayern. Oh, and Van Dijk and signed his Liverpool extension. And that’s it for a moderately slow day in sports.
Wait, but he didn’t even have jurisdiction to issue the order. Not according to the Supreme Court, anyway. This will get spicy.
So there’s no bias after all? Good. They can fund their own research then, and reap the rewards when it results in a breakthrough. (Which is what they do already, btw.) Just like the private sector that everybody pisses and moans about.
It’s too late to spin this, you dumb fuck. I still don’t understand how this repugnant woman got work at such “prestigious” rags.
“Lock her up! Lock her up!” Because, in her own words, “nobody is above the law.”
Looks l.ike Ted Cruz is safe. I knew he had a strong alibi.

Sensei:
Contract brewing is a big and interesting (to me at least) market. I know a couple places here that started down the path of opening up their own brewery, to the point of buying the equipment (before having a brewer, which was a red flag), who eventually opted to stick with the contract route.
A vulva, and goodthinkful opinions?
Don’t forget a bag full of questionable ethics – but that puts us clearly in the political realm.
No kidding about sociopaths – we should be happy she didn’t go directly into politics.
“Because, in her own words, “nobody is above the law.”
There was a whole montage of her saying that repeatedly.
I hope they play it at her trial. Repeatedly.
I’m sure she’ll claim it has tainted the jury pool (if it ever gets that far).
Interesting mention in the article that I hadn’t heard elsewhere — she apparently also owns a brownstone in NYC that she’s renting out for apartments. Claiming 4 when it supposedly actually has 5… because 4 or lower somehow qualifies for a better mortgage rate.
There’s a pattern here of investment/rental properties and getting better loans it seems. And if there’s one think New York loves — it is a landlord fucking around with the law, right? That should go well if it goes to trial…
NY Post has been all over that.
It takes an outlaw to catch an outlaw, if you wanna find a Dunkin Donuts call a cop…she was doing it for the people and deserves a bonus.
“A fight to save democracy,” my ass.
But they voted for tyranny.
Hey, here’s someone else working to save democrat-zi!
Nothing like having a party co-chair that wants to take down half of the party’s incumbents!
David Hogg pees sitting down.
PJ Media speculated he’s basically teeing up for an AOC takeover / the rabid socialist democrat “youth wing”. I could see that.
Because the Party has not moved left far enough.
Which is all just perfect in light of the young, male vote moving rightward.
But as the saying goes – never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.
It seems that they saw the Red Guard as something to emulate.
Just about one step below “As a District Judge, I can order anyone in the government to do anything I want and if you don’t you’re in contempt!” Might as well go for broke and have the contempt “remedy” be “Install Kamala”… Roberts really needs to shut this down yesterday or the Judicial branch is going to be stuck with “Who’s going to enforce any of your crap?” otherwise.
Sure, but he has jurisdiction to appoint a prosecutor? Does anyone understand the three branches of government anymore?
“In my Court — I AM GOD!!!” Or at least, that’s how his rulings read to me.
Not only can he appoint a special prosecutor, but he can hear the case even though he’s already stated his opinion that they’re in contempt, which would mean he cannot possibly be an impartial jurist.
I will also appoint my own police and wardens to enforce my judgements.
Better appoint a lot of them and bring tanks.
Oh.. and issue my own funding laws for my Court and Empire which will be binding on Congress.
Because — fuck it… that’s why!
A court in another district needs to hold Boasberg in contempt and subpoena him.

I can’t believe that so-called “sports genius” Sloopy didn’t link to this story about the next huge professional sport
Yes! They got superstar Angel Reese to join the league. They are sure to make gobs of money. What? Oh, no Caitlin Clark isn’t going to join the league. But who needs her? Women’s Hoops is booming right now.
“We find your terms….. acceptable.”
This must be some sort of tax dodge, right?
Who would invest millions in a league that runs three months and is basically the same product as the WNBA which loses money?
They have an actual ghetto to keep their players in?
Which one is Maxine Bialystock?
The Moist, BC? A much better name.
“Momentum”? Wasn’t it reported that they “only” cost the NBA 60 million or so this past year?
And given they have Caitlin Clarke out doing her “I have white privilege, all the rest of the league is so morally better than me!” tour — that’s likely going to sour some of the buzz she brought in her rookie season. Who wants a sports icon that just has to grovel in interviews and gets beaten up on the court?
But not my money — not my problem. If it works out, more power to them… I’ll just be more than a little surprised.
Not the PPA? Pickleball is the future.

There are at least three periods in every game and with OT possibly more.

Isn’t there already a womens 3-on-3 basketball league?
Would prefer women’s volleyball anyway. At least there are a few attractive women in that sport. Basketball has zero.

NPR had a story on the WNBA draft. It’s that exciting!
NA:
This year’s first pick was Paige “Buckets” Bueckers. She was a high school player in Minnesoda and since she was in Jr. High, we’ve all been preached at by local sportz writers about how great she is and how proud we need to be for her.
I’m wondering if she will get the same “get whitey” beat downs that Caitlin Clark got. If she does, I sure hope she doesn’t also grovel about her privilege.
Also obligatory.

Won’t somebody think about the frigid women?

In fairness to that female deputy who got pepper sprayed, she might not have filled the hole in the door and stopped him from coming in, but she did chase after him and take him down later.

“A recent study found that plastic tea bags release approximately 11.6 billion microplastics in a single cup of tea’, warned the doctor.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-14473919/Doctor-issues-major-warning-tea-drinkers.html
This is getting silly.
If a plastic tea bag was broken down into all of its individual microplastic pieces, how many would there be?
And please Mr. Journalo don’t just give me a straight up number. Make it accessible to the masses by converting it into something like bathtubs of rope.
“bathtubs of rope” for the WIN! I’m stealing that.
Those bogus, contrived journalo units of measurement are one of my pet peeves.
Tonio:
I stole that from a guy I used to work with. If some guy named “puppy nips” accuses you of plagiarism, just plead guilty.
“Tea and plastic is stored in the balls” stories coming in 3…2…1
“He was shooting Airsoft Pellets — so we couldn’t have kids!”
I’ve got the solution:
Just make the teabags out of microplastics. Then when they break down they’ll leave nanoplastics, which will be inherently safer and easier to store in the balls.
It’s fucking dumb, and the tiny volume of microplastics produced by tea bags is a stupid thing to focus on.
… Having said that, loose leaf tea brewed in a tea infuser is a thousand times better than tea bags. They even make reusable tea bags you can fill with your own leaves.
“Wheelchair-bound Jocelyn Pierre has filed 113 federal lawsuits against restaurants, pharmacies, clothing stores and even a charity in Brooklyn and Manhattan since 2018 for their alleged failure to provide handicap access to their establishments.
In each case he cites the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), according to the filings reviewed by The Post. Once the lawsuits are filed, his lawyers move in and offer to settle if the businesses pay thousands of dollars, according to those who have received them.
All of Pierre’s lawsuits have been brought by Manhattan-based attorneys Bradly and Darren Marks and have targeted everyone from high-end clothing store Paul Stuart on Madison Avenue and a Duane Reade to Electric Lotus Tattoo, a tattoo studio in Fort Greene.”

I don’t know if the Minnesoda group who sued everyone for ADA compliance made millions, but they sure filed a lot of suits back in the day. But they have a lot of great people as part of their group.
They should all be branded (on the face) as vexatious litigants, barred from filing new suits, and forced to repay every cent (with interest) levied against their victims.
Years back when I worked at a large insurance company, they handled a slew of these kinds of suits against car dealerships and the like. Even though they knew it was basically a racket, the filing attorney/s were willing to settle for small 5-figure sums. So, they just kept settling.

What It’s Like to Retire in Paris: One Couple’s Experience
Today I learned that the French are assoles.
Sacre bleu!
Germans don’t do this, not strangers at least.
/assumes superior visage
Parisians are detested by the rest of France, so they really put themselves into the worst of it.
In my experience in Paris and elsewhere in France, the French are happy that you attempt to speak French and only give you attitude if you start right off with English. And if I was learning a language, I wouldn’t mind being corrected if I make a mistake. It’s certainly better than having the other person pretend they don’t understand you. The only people that really gave me attitude in France were the Arabs and the Quebecois.
::Gallic guffaw::
My dad’s cousin had a great way of correcting me, basically asking questions to clarify what I meant but using the proper grammar in the hopes I’d pick up on it.
Sounds like you learned the wrong lesson from it.
My teacher does similarly.
I lived that in Japan/Korea and my take away was: Man do I miss not having my own wheels.
Not just for the independence of being able to go where I want, when I want. The other thing I noticed about being in a “walkable” city is that you better hope the local businesses aren’t greedy because you don’t have any convenient options if your local grocer decides to pad his profits. Taking a train with a bunch of groceries isn’t convenient at all.
You also get to walk to that grocer a lot more than you’d think. No driving up and getting a week’s worth of food, putting it in your trunk and driving home. Nope, you have to walk down to the grocer every few days to get a bag of food.
I was lucky in the fact that my in-laws had cars and were happy to drive you somewhere if you asked. But that still sucked to not have my usual freedom to go where I wanted.
I’ve done both. I also much prefer having wheels.
I see merit in both. As a confirmed bachelor I like the walkable thing. But under most other circumstances I would probably go with the flow.
I lived/worked in small villages in France for 5 years. My French was broken, GI accented but yet had no problem spending money and buying what I wanted. Often some young English speaking French person would help me out.
Maybe the ’60s were different.
Small towns are also different from the big cities.
You had the luxury of being around frogs who had survived the war and were grateful for what America had done to free them from the Nazis.
The people there now are more likely to be dealing with a different, ungrateful French people.
Most of the stereotypes of the insufferable French are based on the behavior of Parisians and Quebecois. If you talk to people from the rest of France they share the rest of the world’s opinion of Parisian manners. Quebec copied Paris and dialed up the intensity.
I was in Paris in late 70s. Young waiter was very rude and condescending, etc. I called over the manager (looked to be in his fifties), showed him a photo of my father in uniform, and mumbled something like “morte Ste. Mere Eglise” (no , he didn’t die in WWII). Manager chewed out the waiter, comped my meal.
a policeman—enjoys nothing more than gently correcting any linguistic error I make
The language police?
It does help you learn the language when you get correction. I almost always was receptive to it when I was learning Portuguese. But then again most Brazilians are super happy when a foreigner makes an attempt to learn their language.
“By letting a New Hampshire school district ban parents from wearing “XX” wristbands at their daughters’ soccer games to silently protest male participation, calling the female symbol a “demeaning and harassing assertion” in that context, U.S. District Judge Steven McAuliffe may have doomed the political viability of gender identity-based athletics policies.
The President George W. Bush nominee’s denial of a preliminary injunction against Bow School District’s XX ban this week, after mostly rejecting an emergency temporary restraining order last fall, sparked outrage among high-profile activists for sex-based distinctions including swimmer Riley Gaines, but also criticism from within the movement about the legal strategy….
McAuliffe believes that gender identity is “immutable,” ignoring the phenomenon of gender fluidity and rapid-onset gender dysphoria most common in adolescent girls, and says that demeaning it “strikes a person at the core of his being,” quoting a 7th Circuit ruling about a phenomenon based on sex – sexual orientation….
McAuliffe paraphrased testimony by Superintendent Marcy Kelley that the XX symbol “conveys a well-understood anti-trans message” in contrast to the “Pride” symbol, which she might allow at games because it “conveys a message of inclusion and does not target or harass any specific student.” (Morrison, the student, testified otherwise in his 1st Circuit case.)”
https://justthenews.com/government/courts-law/judge-spurs-grassroots-backlash-upholding-ban-demeaning-xx-symbol-girls-games
The root of the problem is that both sides conflate sex and gender. Sports are segregated by sex, not gender. Wearing pink to support females is no more “anti-trans” than wearing pink for breast cancer.
Sue the district to the point the administrators are left starving and living under a bridge to pay the judgment against them.
There is no personal liability for official conduct, the district (i.e. taxpayers) must pay.
That is what tar & feathers/running out of town on a rail/lynching used to be for.
Get two hundred parents and fans to show up, put on XX bands and dare the school district to do something about it.
Sit ins at Woolworth’s were illegal 65 years ago but civil disobedience eventually won the day by creating sympathy and then change of thoughts.
Once you accept the idea that people have a right not to be offended there is no end to the mental contortions that become possible or even necessary.
I’m offended by their attempts to control my thinking.
The root of the problem is that both sides conflate sex and gender.
No. The root of the problem is that this retarded judge doesn’t understand that the first amendment covers speech and apparel that might make someone else uncomfortable.
There is that too, but there wouldn’t be biological males playing in girls sports in the first place.
Although, I think a school can impose limits on free speech.
My God, the hatred of women out there is unbelievable.
But I’m curious what the judge has against straight edgers.
Maybe the judge knew some?
“Maybe the judge knew some?”
LOL

At least locally, the old joke used to be “Vegan, straight edger, or atheist” before Crossfit was a thing.

Replace the XX with “20”, or a Dos Equis logo.
Fall of 1986, the best female distance runner in KY ran in mostly boys X-country meets for the competition. Dual and tri meets, invitationals she ran girls. When she tried to run against us, our coach told their coach that if she ran in the boys race, he would enter all our guys in the girls race. So she ended up not running that day.
I guess my coach was just 40 years ahead of his time.
It’s just the denial of a preliminary injunction, right? The case is still to be heard and, while I agree with the sentiments of the parents, schools and their functions can ban all sorts of shit.
Re: The DNA situation. I would consider it too sketchy to be used in court unless another lab can also verify the information. Not that they aren’t doing it right, just if they are the only ones able to do it, it can lead to some shady situations. If its science, its repeatable.
The root of the problem is that both sides conflate sex and gender.
The root of the problem is that there is a side pretending that a difference between sex and gender exists and is forcibly seeking to impose this view on everyone else.
There is a difference between sex and gender.
The difference is a delusion. Plenty of people have all sorts of delusions. Live and let live. The problem is when a delusion is forced onto others.
“The difference is a delusion.”
No, it’s easily observed.

I don’t know. They keep putting up headlines about a Maryland Man, then go on to talk of a violent Salvadorian Illegal alien gang banger
Maybe the Maryland man is his FBI handler?
It reminds me of the choice of who to protest when a cop kills someone.
There are plenty of no-brainer cases of police misconduct that would cause no controversy. Perfect cases. And instead we get George Floyd. Philando Castile would have been much better, to stay within MN. The El Salvadoran situation seems similar. Not the guy to be the face of the protest.
Not the guy to be the face of the protest.
Nope, this is exactly what they want – the worst to rub in all of the rest of our faces.
Oh, I know. It is intentional. They want the divide, the conflict. They don’t want to actually make changes for the positive.
It shouldn’t matter if he is a baby raper or mother murderer. If he warrants Due Process, then he warrants it.
The left doesn’t choose these cases to rub anyone’s nose in it, but, rather, they believe that the process, and the rights that this comes from, are just as important. Edge cases get greater coverage due to the fact that they highlight the differences, not that they only care about the worst of us.
If we only cared about the speech that we agreed with, there would be no need for a first amendment. This is really no different. This is an area that the Right misreads as badly as the Left misreads the root of the Right’s moral grounding.

Of course, the cops were the true victims:
It is kind of amazing that illegal immigration has pushed most people over to supporting LEO’s again.
I agree completely.
No, sorry, I don’t believe that the modern left gives the slightest fuck about the abstract notion of “due process”, any more than they care about abstract notions of “free speech”. If they’re standing up for someone, it’s either because that person is a political ally and/or that person’s opponents are their political opponents.
Due process means you get notice of proceedings against you, and a chance to appear to answer them. Due process has nothing whatever to do with a police shooting, except that the police officer is entitled to notice and a chance to appear if they are charged for the shooting. George Floyd was not deprived of due process. He was either wrongfully killed or he was not, but since this was manifestly not a judicial proceeding talking about due process indicates a deep misunderstanding of what the words mean.
And everyone who is against abortion just wants to keep women barefoot and pregnant…
There are plenty of things wrong with the modern left, but deciding their motives are pure evil is just as silly and blind to the issues.
“If he warrants Due Process, then he warrants it.”
I very much agree with this. I also think there’s a big chasm between deporting a guy to his home country and the country tossing him into CECOT in a nudge nudge/wink wink manner. The details are pretty blurry in this case. I’ve heard that the Trump administration admitted that he was deported by accident. I’ve also heard that he was afforded due process years ago, and has a deportation order. Due process in this particular case may mean he’s returned to the U.S. and gets (another round of?) his day in court. Then he’s deported again. The administration needs to be very careful about not cutting corners. I’m also to understand that the guy’s wife is a U.S. citizen, along with his kids. Was there no movement on this guy’s part to seek citizenship?
“…they believe that the process, and the rights that this comes from, are just as important.”
They also believe that any poor person, or person from a poor country, who touches foot on U.S. soil gets to stay here forever, no matter what. This is something that just about zero people believed until maybe a dozen years ago.
Substantive Due Process which is what the left is obsessed with is nonsense and every reasonable decision that has come from it could have been based in actual Constitutional provisions. Most Substantive Due Process decisions are Federal overreach.
Given his multiple rounds of being officially found to be a member of a violent criminal gang, I think he wouldn’t have made it past the basic application stage.
I saw a montage of that — almost parroting word for word.

I remember for a small time on Fox News of all channels, were leaning towards criminal justice reform but then the Riots of Spring/ Summer 2022 and Defund the Police happened and that all but disappeared. The Left thrives on injustice and has maintained their power through the lens of the oppressor/ the oppressed, so why on Earth would they want reformation? It would eliminate one of their monopolies on being for the oppressed.
This story is a collection of rakes the Dems keep stepping on. They need to cut their losses and hope it’s forgotten, but of course they won’t.

I had a thought last night. I keep getting riled up seeing lefty posts on FB. But I should be encouraging them. Allow me to explain.
The Dems are controlled by the batshit crazy faction of their party. They are on the wrong side of every 80/20 issue, and as a result their recent approval rating was 26%. The FB posters aren’t advocating for their party to change, they are doubling down on the batshit craziness and Trump hatred. That’s not going to convince anyone, and in fact they are the anchor that is dragging the party to the left.
As JI said today, never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.
I had a similar thought last year. There were people outside the grocery stores and etc getting signatures for a ballot measure in order to make sure abortion rights were protected in the CO constitution. CO may have the most open abortion laws in the nation. There is zero chance of it changing. I wanted to rant on these people telling them how much they were wasting their time, then I realized it was a good thing. If they weren’t doing that, they would be spending time on an issue that might actually matter. So I just shut up and walked on.
You should have signed something like “John Galt, Galt’s Gulch, CO” Increases the phony signatures when the petitions are scrutinized.
Both parties have always been controlled by the fringe as they’re the only ones who show up to vote in the primaries. The current Dem fringe does seem particularly crazy though, no doubt.
They really embraced the 80s video trend with that song.

You start fucking with Harvard’s all-holy endowment, and the regents will have strong words to the president and provost, who will have talks with deans, who will start to work on the prof’s. They know this, and they are scared of the repercussions; it is visible with all the posturing already.
Isn’t the fact that international students pay full tuition what makes them so sought after by these universities?
If they can’t subsidize the domestic student’s scholarships, that will get rid of the 2 or 3 actual farm kids who are trying to better themselves.
Absolutely!
I was seated yesterday at a luncheon next to a woman who had a PhD in History from Harvard and retired after a long career at Penn. She admitted being a woman “right place at the right time” in the 1960s advanced her career. Anyway, she started in on what a travesty it was that Trump wanted to punish Harvard, and that there should be no strings on federal aid. Unfortunately, I was a guest at the luncheon and she was a member of the club, so I didn’t want to embarrass my host by getting into a debate with her. I’m pretty certain, however, she wouldn’t have any problem putting strings on where her money is invested.
I’m sure she loved her some Title IX strings.

From JI’s linked article on masculinity:
“This disconnect often falls along class lines. Some of us are afforded the emotional and social freedom to distance ourselves from masculinity without fearing a loss of our identity or belonging. For men who have been raised to see work as a central part of who they are, performing the masculinity they were taught to admire is important to them, even if the labor market no longer supports it.”
This article was written by a woman, or at least a they that uses the name “Alice”. The left is aware that theys have a problem with men, but has zero clue on how to approach that as evidenced by that wonderful example of academise and condescension.
Yes, masculinity is a social construct, not an evolutionary imperative. I’m not sure you – or anyone for that matter – will like where that little experiment ends up if you insist on forcing it.
“performing the masculinity”
