”Captain’s log. Its Veteran’s Day and everyone is at the house today. Well…maybe not. I’m still working because my company doesn’t recognize it as a holiday in exchange for giving us the day after Thanksgiving. I have a floater, I just don’t want to use it just to do the Cotton Hill thing and walk in the Veterans Day Parade and headbutt people at the VFW. Though the latter has a lot of appeal.

Still, the news from DC is welcome and would infuriate me in any other circumstance. I need to figure out how to make more money (legally) so I can build my dream of living on an offshore oil rig.
Anyways, given my son’s penchant for Roblox videos on YouTube, I might accept a true crime show from the mid-90’s today. WILL YOU TURN THAT SHIT DOWN.”

Imagine the chutzpah needed to cop a feel on the sitting president. I applaud this guy.
Not a terrible idea, just make it look like a cartel hit.
El Presidenté Mujer declares Mexico will be finished with their infrastructure projects in time for the World Cup.
They’re all colluding against us….
Lula wants to censor climate deniers. Lets start with Bill Gates.
Death metal singer crowned Miss Chile. Best headline, ever.
Let’s see if she can sing? Have a Happy Veteran’s Day!

Spicy.
As previously reported, Fernández garnered worldwide attention after performing an original song by her band during last week’s semi-finals broadcast — with the frontwoman bringing massive gutturals to the pageant stage, while flanked by Decessus guitarist Carlos Palma.
That schtick might play well in Santiago, but the world finals are much more ritualized and formal. I’m guessing she’ll have a Chile reception.
If you wrote that plot in a book, nobody would Bolivia.
If she doesn’t make ya feel *somethin’*, Uruguay.
I’m not sure it’s possible to make that vocal sound without intense use of autotune and much processing. If I am wrong, I’ll be remarkably impressed and will bed her as penance. If it *is* ultra-processed, I’ll also bed her as penance. (For something, I’m sure.)
Niger, please.
I get the feeling that everyone wants to Thai one on with her.
El Presidenté Mujer declares Mexico will be finished with their infrastructure projects in time for the World Cup.
They should just play the games in bull rings. Preferably with picadors on horseback.
“Not a terrible idea, just make it look like a cartel hit.”
Know who else had issues with ambassadors in Mexico?
James Polk?
The world must “defeat” climate denialism and fight fake news, Brazil’s President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has told the opening meeting of the UN climate talks.
There is no climate. Only weather. Come and get me, coppers!
They all come out of the factory programmed with these lines it seems.
No, but they receive regular OTA updates.
Well, how else do they get the pallets of cash?
“I told Trump that Latin America is a region of peace,” Lula said.
Sure, pal. Pull the other one.
“rejection of scientific evidence”.
I know you are, but what am I?
I’m in love.
She’s no Otep.
Has Q been around?
Reddit mod jailed for sharing movie sex scenes in rare “moral rights” verdict
https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/11/reddit-mod-jailed-for-sharing-movie-sex-scenes-in-rare-moral-rights-verdict/
“A Reddit moderator known as “KlammereFyr” was recently convicted by a Danish court after clipping and posting hundreds of nude scenes that actresses filmed for movies and TV shows but apparently never expected to be shared out of context.”
The mind boggles at someone so naive? Stupid? Sheltered? As to think their nude scenes wouldn’t be clipped and posted.
My favorite heavy and death metal singer:

“Fight fake news and defeat climate deniers.”
Pick one. You cant have both.
The nudity thing. FFS this is just the way we are formed. Everything doesnt have to be about sex you bunch o’ fuckin’ monkeys. Grow up and come to terms with it.
She said, “Faculty are people. Faculty have lives, livelihoods, families on the line… Faculty are part of that student experience.”
You know what else is people?
You cant kick us out of this failing institution. We need paychecks.
Math is hard?
I remember some commie shitbird during Clinton’s campaign saying “We know the numbers dont work but what we are too important to be held back by math”
Depeche Mode?
Strangely I see no mention of administrative staff being sacked in that article.
It’s there….
Guardian “ Peanut allergies have plummeted among US kids since 2017 – what happened?”
I don’t know, maybe the fucking healthcare “experts” finally came to terms with their awful recommendations for children?
That is, in fact, exactly what happened. May it continue.
Now do asthma, Attention Deficit, autism (that’s just the “A”s)
“Faculty are people,” she claimed without evidence.
Faculty are people……and?
People get fired all the time. Businesses collapse and people get laid off with no hope of ever going back.
Welcome to real life people.
People are people.

They’re people-like.
People-shaped, at least.
Mostly.
No. No they aren’t. I’ve seen the movie.
Is that death metal real? How does she do that voice? It is a Millie Vanillei, right?
Looks like a whole lot of distortion and other effects. I can’t imagine that she can actually sing that way.
There’s a whole technique to singing like Cookie Monster without fucking up your voice. Anyone can do it.
Tired pilot? Load shift? Really sad. Too early for anything, but speculation.
Man and daughter flying hurricane relief supplies to Jamaica identified as victims of crash
Recent purchase. I wonder if unfamiliarity contributed.
On the college thing….how many DEI administrators and tranny counsellors? Gender studies professors?
If there’s even just 1, it’s too many.
And I’d bet there is more than one. I’d bet they have entire degree programs devoted to it.
Space rescue services needed? 2 ‘stranded’ astronaut incidents are a ‘massive wake-up call,’ experts say
“
We won’t actually do anything, but we get some cash and talk big.
Consultants. That’s what people stranded hundreds of miles above the planet need.
The band is better than she is, even if their sound is pretty much a direct rip of Meshuggah (though, TBF, I suppose the whole of Djent sounds like Meshuggah).
The song is too slow and droning.
Uh, does anybody really care if she can sing?
RC gets it.
Even regardless of *how* autotuned+ it is, if that’s a legitimate interest of hers?
Uh, yeah. That’s a solid schwing up in my book.
Oh, I’ll note I don’t like that type of music. Double bass drumming is ironically (to them) quite boring. (He can play, for sure.) I also really don’t ‘get’ the impulse to have screamy vocals for a whole song. Makes it pointless.
Welcome to real life people.
If she had wanted to live in the real world she wouldn’t have become a college teacher.
creating an initial space rescue capability does not have to be expensive or involve setting up a new government agency or the like.
Now you’re just being silly. What would be the point, then?
He wants a completely incompetent new agency that will never accomplish anything other than being a bottomless pit for more tax money. How much more? MORE.
These fuckers never quit.
Although stranded in space sounds horrible, I’m thinking that, at this point in space exploration, it’s a hazard of the job.
Uh. I’m from Miami. You can’t say you admire Castro and expect to win a dog catcher race, much less Mayor. Really you can’t say that out loud anywhere.
I’ve sat with abuela while she tells her stories. Best friend’s dad escaped in 1960. Admitting you like Castro might be enough for a Miami version of SSS.
But watch the video. She’s been to Cuba 3 times! And she’s read some books! That oughta show those who actually lived under him and had everything taken from them.
Seriously. White women are the root cause of our predicament.

The broad in the green dress has a severe case of RBF.
And I love that the black dude is talking to her like she’s 5 years old.
But she has big glasses! She must be smrt!
It’s a bold strategy, Cotton.
Dog-in-the-manger social activism
“Fascism is on the march in America and around the world. Institutions and elites are caving. We’re fighting back. No one is doing more to fuel the rise of fascism than Elon Musk. Now, Tesla shareholders want to supercharge his assault on democracy by making him a trillionaire. Yes, with a T. That will make him even more dangerous. The good news is, we CAN stop him. His insane trillion-dollar incentive package depends on hitting huge benchmarks. That’s where all of us come in,” the group wrote.
We’ll do our best to destroy the company to keep Musk from benefitting from its success.
I guess those polar bears will have to die on iceflows. We need to enact our envy fantasies.
But Soros, his kid, or Klaus Schwab as a trillionaire is cool, right?
I’ve been having fun today scribbling a new story for falling, I finally have a keyboard and a screen. Gibson look weird not on a phone, yippee!
Y’allins, fucking auto correct
HEY YUFUS!
TALL CANS!
Many!
It’s San Diego beer week, and tomorrow is the Beer Fling, many local breweries bringing their craft and we finish with lunch at a local brewery, I love this place
Intentional drunkenness
The Mercedes Benz S-Class | Here’s the Unfortunate Truth
One of my car YouTube people. He is an independent Toyota specialist with 1M subs and this is his car review channel. His twist is thorough mechanical construction reviews.
This particular German POS lease special has 42k miles and a leaking air shock already. But if you want to focus on one part of his review just jump to the interior of this $140k cost cut special designed for the Chinese market. MB is lost worse than BMW. Never thought I’d say that.
I sat in a tree this afternoon for a couple hours, practicing some squirrel moves. Didn’t see anything other than the great outdoors but it was warm out so not so bad. I’ll be back out tomorrow.
I hadn’t planned to hunt but it’s hard getting the boy out of the man.
Just put a cow catcher on the front of the truck and you’ll get 3 or 4 in a day.
Just took an online assessment for Data Annotation, one of those companies that has folk correct, edit and prioritize AI responses to prompts. Gave me a few example prompts and two responses to ’em. My talk was to pick which was best based on the criteria the ‘client’ asked it. Then I was to write a short paragraph on why I thought one was better than the other.
I’m fairly convinced that much, if not straight-up all, of this is just free info about various prompts their LLM can add to its databank. Interesting process to get used to, for better /worse. This would be like my old SEO gig where you pick from a pretty big lists of assignments. Payments back then, ~2018, were weird on PayPal, which this place and others also use to deposit pay.
Has PayPal become more reliable since? I can’t imagine it wouldn’t have, but still seems strange. But such is the life of most freelance work these days, yeah? Trying to make sure my internal barometer on ‘sensible’ properly calibrated.
