The Ravens are inexplicably within striking distance of the Steelers now. The Browns and Bungles are not. Somehow the Dolphins beat the Bills. The Patriots are red hot. The Texans pulled off a miracle comeback. And the rest of the NFL weekend was pretty nutty. Getting caught doing roids in the clubhouse would be smarter than this. Talk about brazen stupidity. Across the pond, Arsenal had a hiccup and Man City throttled Liverpool. And way down south, Max had a hell of a run through the field after starting from the pit lane and might have challenged for the win if not for an inopportune puncture. The championship is all but done now, and the second least likable guy in the field is going to win it. And that’s it for sports.
Team Blue got what they wanted out of it, so it’s about to end. That’s politics: playing with peoples lives to consolidate your power. Sadly, all too many Americans are reliant on the largesse of the state, which makes this kind of shit politically useful.
This would be fantastic. I hope it works.

“Somehow the Dolphins beat the Bills.”
Color me surprised.
By the transitive property, that means the Browns should beat the Bills, right?
I wouldn’t bet on it.
It can happen.
The Bills are looking distinctly average lately.
The players might.

“Prosecutors at the Eastern District of New York, the Brooklyn-based United States Attorney’s office that levied similar charges against NBA player Terry Rozier and multiple coaches in late October, said in the indictment that Clase arranged with a bettor as early as May 2023 to throw specific pitches for balls so the gambler could place prop bets and profit. Ortiz, prosecutors said, joined the scheme in June 2025, and between the two, gamblers won at least $450,000 wagering on their pitches, while Clase and Ortiz were given kickbacks for their participation.”
Sports betting has become way too specific.

So I hear the republicans caved and the shutdown is ending?
Although it seems they didn’t really concede anything. They said they would agree to a vote on extending the Obamacare subsidies, not that they would actually support it. And the workers coming back wouldn’t have been furloughed anyway if it wasn’t for the shut down.
Allowing fired government crooks to come back instead of firing 5 to 10 more for every one they send away to tell the democrats to fuck off, is a big loss IMO. And not getting rid of the filibuster, considering the democrats plan to cheat & steal elections to do just that and permanently rig the system they now see being rebalanced against their favor, is going to be seen as a major fail moment.
What the Democrats want when they win back power.
Go home, James. You’re drunk.
They are so confident they will pull this off they do not even feel compelled to lie abut it like they used to in the past…
“The agreement also includes a reversal of the mass firings of federal workers by the Trump administration since the shutdown began on Oct. 1 and would ensure that federal workers receive back pay. ”
Boo!
Like I said. What a waste. And the worst part of this is that the democrats will kill the filibuster the moment their cheating gets them enough power, and then they will permanently rig tit as they come after everyone they see as enemies of the evil cabal and its agenda.
Didn’t see that.
That is bullshit.
The complaint, filed by former employee Tava Martin, focuses on a routine familiar to many in the modern workplace: unlocking encrypted drives, signing in through multi-factor authentication, connecting to a VPN, and launching business-critical applications. According to the filing, these tasks could take up to 30 minutes each day and were required before employees could access the company’s timekeeping system to clock in.
Still using 90s desktops and dial up?
Maybe Tava was just really slow.
In other Bank of America news I heard an add paid for by them urging people to call Congress to push for a $25 minimum wage.

Alligator rug? I mean holsters, belts, boots…but a rug?

“”The couple secured the 12-foot, 597-pound alligator, affectionately nicknamed “Chomp Norris,” after many grueling hours hunting it through the marshlands in September….
They already dropped the gator off at a family business that has been processing wild game for generations. The workers were able to take the carcass and make more than 100 pounds of meat products that were preserved for display, the outlet reported.”
Only 100 out of 597?
Based on the short lived tv show “The Butcher” where they butchered a whole gator in the final round, that does seem light.
I did learn that the best meat comes from the tail.
can you make an alligator skin duster?
The Browns and Bungles are not.
The Jets’ only wins are against the Bengals and Browns.
“The complaint, filed by former employee Tava Martin, focuses on a routine familiar to many in the modern workplace: unlocking encrypted drives, signing in through multi-factor authentication, connecting to a VPN, and launching business-critical applications. According to the filing, these tasks could take up to 30 minutes each day and were required before employees could access the company’s timekeeping system to clock in.”
They could just get a regular time clock.
A regular time clock would mean RTO, from the sound of the complaint, the employee wants to stay remote.
The several minutes per day it takes to log in will also be counted against the employee’s uptime.
I did a quick calculation: I have to enter my ID and password four times every morning, plus a 2FA password and a bunch of “OK” prompts. Easily 3-4 minutes a day before I can clock in. Not 30, but it does add up to 12-15 hours a year off the clock.
What’s the difference between it taking time to securely log into a server remotely vs. a driving commute to an on-site job if both take the same amount of time?
I mean, with the former the time needed to log off is always less, whereas your commute home isn’t a physically shorter distance than it was when you drove in. And depending on the time of day, it would take longer to get home than it did to drive to work.
This would be fantastic. I hope it works.

That’s Guardian Ball!

Guard ball.
I hate it. At the stadium, they’ve tried to replace the fanfare with the crowd response of “Charge!” to a crowd response of “Guards!”. Even the kids don’t fall for that bullshit.
Is there a movement to return the pre-woke name?
That would be nice.
ZWAK:
Not really a movement as much as resigned realization that it’s likely not coming back. However, Wahoo is more popular now than he was near the end of the Indians name (when you could only get new Wahoo gear at the stadium), and it’s the Guardians garb that’s in the smallest amount from what I see among the fans.
Now, that’ll change in time as there’s little new Wahoo/Indians stuff being made, and a lot of new Guardians stuff being made.
I’m no marketing expert, but Cleveland Guards sounds much better than Guardians. Come up with a better logo than the goofy 3-D baseball with wings and it could work.
My old high school went from an Indian name mascot to a “packer” because of our local stock yards. We referred to the team as the “fudge packers”. Results of team name changes rarely go down well.
The correct answer, as it has always been, is Cleveland Spiders.

I dunno man you have a suspicious amount of children… Mighty suspect….
There was a sense among many at NatalCon that, with Trump and Vance in power, the moment to jump-start American baby-making had come at last.
Won’t happen. It’s a simple matter of incentives. In most western societies, children have evolved from an economic necessity to a luxury good over the last hundred years. Kids are expensive — if you’re going to raise them right. Of course, if you let the government raise them for you, they’re cheap — which is how you get Kla’Midyah with her four kids by six different “baby daddies.”
four kids by six different “baby daddies.”

It’s not just in the West. It’s every society that moved on from an agrarian based economy to an industrial economy.
Even more for those going from industrial to information economies.
Kids are expensive — if you’re going to raise them right.
Eh. Theyre certainly not free, but most of the “kids are expensive” thread comes from daycare, fancy extracurriculars, and new luxury and disposable goods.
Simply buying used takes most of the sting away. Acknowledging and avoiding the temptation to live vicariously through your child goes a long way toward avoiding bankrupting yourself by spoiling your child.
You still wearing an onion on your belt too? [I keed. I wish there were more like you.]
Simply buying used takes most of the sting away.
They frown upon buying children on the secondary market around here.
In Korea kids are expensive because of all the tutoring and other educational costs to get them into a good college.
That is why they are only having the one kid

Distantly-related, my Mom will be moving to San Antonio next year.

My sister lives there and honestly, I agree with her that I’d rather be old in TX than NY.
By the early ’90s there were zero pure coyotes, wolves or wild dogs in the continental US. They have interbred so much that, like the ‘ghost wolves’ they are all mutts. This has been well known by mammalogists for decades. The wild canines around my house are obviously mutts and look exactly like the ones from the photos in the article. The words ‘wolf’, ‘red wolf’ and ‘coyote’ are essentially meaningless. ‘Wild Canine’ would be the best description. Domestic dogs figure heavily into the genetics as well.
so canid racism has been solved and they all live in peace !!!
They still have a rape gang crisis though…
They still have a rape gang crisis though…
Nope. The bitch had it coming.
If they can all interbreed and produce fertile offspring doesn’t that mean they were always the same species? I thought that was the definition.
I’ve heard many people say that, but it isn’t.
spe·cies
/ˈspēSHēz,ˈspēsēz/
noun
1.
Biology
a group of living organisms consisting of similar individuals capable of exchanging genes or interbreeding. The species is the principal natural taxonomic unit, ranking below a genus and denoted by a Latin binomial, e.g. Homo sapiens.
“I thought that was the definition”
So, you have spotted the problem. Definition.
The human brain sees the universe as a collection of entities, sometimes where none exist. Like ‘species’. They are more than a little bit fuzzy.
That is kind of my point.
Ok, I should be clear. Dogs, coyotes and wolves are closely related, so closely related that the concept of “pure coyotes, wolves or wild dogs” is kind of meaningless. They are not genetically distinct in the way that that phrase implies. There was always interbreeding, even in the wild before the wolves became endangered and then were reintroduced. You weren’t really making this point, but there is a strong current of bemoaning the corruption of the ‘pure’ animals by nasty humans that annoys me so I was trying to push back at the notion that cross fertile populations are ever purely distinct.
You were clear. I was reiterating your point.
I find exactly the same thing annoying.
I am a free speech absolutist regarding everything save one: ‘Bambi’ should be banned and never shown again to anyone, ever. Especially not children.
I am so old that when I was in high school, dogs wolves and coyotes all had different scientific names.
That’s changed now, where they’re all subspecies.
To both of you two’s points, it is as silly as trying to distinguish between Caucasoid, Negroid, or Mongoloid.
Or Great Dane, Akita and Ridgeback.
Are you new to the dictionary? Even their example doesn’t work (many Homo sapiens are part neanderthal).
Go look up “species problem”.
Now ask CT for the definition of “transgender.”
Meow.
Condescending Tater, I am actually making the point, or a point adjacent to it, that you are sniping at me for not understanding. The traditional definition of a species, the one that formed the concept of species is the one I gave. The problem you think I am missing is that it turns out that you can have a very wide range of behavioral and morphological characteristics inside that definition which means that it doesn’t actually divide things as neatly as needed. This matters to biologists obviously, but it has implications that go beyond the academic precisely because of the example you give.
Sorry, didn’t mean to sound condescending, but no idea why you quoting the dictionary at me, when you agree.
“Now ask CT for the definition of “transgender.””
Asked and answered.
Oh, it’s much much worse than you think. In Orchids, and presumably other plants, and Killifish, and presumably other fish, there are inter-generic hybrids. Orchid breeders don’t so much encourage as absolutely indulge in inter-generics. Killifish breeders attempt to discourage inter-generics, at least in the hobby.
cladistics solves this definition shitshow.
After the Canadian wolf reintroduction here in Idaho the packs would push out young males and they would extend their range looking for females. The wolves would occasionally find a female dog in heat they didn’t immediately eat. On the Rez there are plenty of loose unfixed dogs. About 15 years ago there was an obvious wolf Shepard mix in my area.
Likely reincorporated with the new local pack. We had a black wolf come through my neighborhood a few years ago during g the day. Not affraid of people and likely looking to eat pets.
“Were they working? If so, pay them. This suit looks like a slam dunk to me.”
Turning on your computer and logging in takes, what, five minutes? Are you even working before that happens, or are you just doing something so you can work? This strikes me as analogous to time spent commuting to the office so you can work, which has never been “on the clock”.
Also see dressage rules. I didn’t get paid for the time it took for me to change into my chef garb before clocking in. This strikes me much like dressage.
Or, and this is an odd concept that won’t fly, maybe there should not be any ‘rules’ about this at all except the basic one that people can contract freely.
Ladies and Gentlemen we have a Winner!
Well, if you have a required start time, say 8AM, and no matter the time it takes to get to the work site, you have to start then. That is a commute issue, and is entirely on the workers choice of were to come from. If, on the other hand, you have to start working at something, say unblocking doors, that requires you to be on the spot before you can clock in, then you have a problem of a different sort.
Which is what we have here today.
Hiring back fired government workers…
Trump vetos this if he wants to save his Presidency.
Outside of this place, no one gives a shit about that. No effect on the presidency if they come back.
Save his Presidency? From what?
From himself, from Congressional Republicans who pretend to support him but don’t, from Susie Wells and other neo-con rats he’s allowed to infiltrate his administration….
Oh you’re really going to hate the ’26 and ’28 elections, aren’t you?
I’m pretty sure I will, yes. Not that that has anything to do with anything under discussion.
They have everything to do with it. Since the first couple of months of the administration, Trump has allowed his agenda to be sabotaged. The people who voted for no new wars and the reforms aren’t going to bother voting for the people who sabotaged that plan.
This your first time at a rodeo, Drake?

That would be the Chief of Staff that Trump himself chose, right? Man, for a guy who’s so brilliant he sure can’t pick staffers to please his base.
Nope – doesn’t mean I’ll make an effort to support it.
Somebody has actually talked Trump into supporting a primary challenger against Thomas Massie while endorsing Lindsey Graham.
The problem with the formulation you offer there, someone talked Trump into is that Trump is so pliable.
Yep. He hires bad people and takes their bad advice.
Lousy way to implement an agenda.
Evil wins again. Sigh.
I like when Liverpool lose.
Kicking the can down the road? They didn’t get full bennies for illegals (yet!) which is what they are demanding.
They get to hang yet another record shutdown on Trumps neck right next to 37 felonies!
And people are buying it just the same: not at all.
The left lost media coverage a long time ago, and only TruBlu dead enders pay any attention to this. No one is blaming Trump at all.
Chaos and talking points for the elections?

“BBC Director General Tim Davie and BBC News CEO Deborah Turness stepped down after a whistleblower told The Telegraph newspaper that the corporation’s “Panorama” program spliced together two clips of Trump speaking to suggest he had instructed his supporters to storm the Capitol in his speech at the Ellipse.
“We’re going to walk down to the Capitol … and I’ll be there with you, and we fight. We fight like hell,” Trump was shown saying in the program, which aired the week before the 2024 presidential election.

Spring Airlines, the country’s first budget airline, said in late October that it was seeking female flight attendants between 25 and 40 years old, preferably those who are married or have children. The airline plans to hire between 30 and 60 women with a bachelor’s degree, a height between 162 and 174 centimeters (5-foot-3-inches to 5-foot-7-inches), and experience in hospitality. The roles are based in Shanghai and Lanzhou and come as the airline looks to expand its services.
So far, so good? The problem arose when a recruiter described the applicants as “air aunties” who would bring more empathy and life experience and better care for elderly passengers and children.
The reference to “aunties” did not go over well in China. Social media users criticized the wording, which many saw as referring to older women.
I suppose they could call them “sky waitresses” the way we do.
What happened to ‘stewardess’?
Read it and weep.
In short, racist misogynist etc etc. All the horribles from the backward years.

Interesting how nobody on the left ever talks about making things better for anyone. It’s just opposing everything Trump does, and getting their power back. And holding on to power after that. They’re not even pretending they want to do anything good for anyone.
Just like they don’t want to really improve poor people’s condition by empowering the poor, but by keeping them dependent. All the while howling about how the rich have too much.

An elderly Vietnam War veteran turned the tables on a naked madman who broke both his legs — shooting the attacker dead in Los Angeles’ Studio City neighborhood, cops and witnesses said.

That just like your opinion, man.
All of the reviews highlighted a tentative link between paracetamol use during pregnancy and autism or ADHD in their children, but over 75 per cent of these studies urged caution when interpreting the data because they could not rule out other factors.
Maybe, maybe not.
Funny how this study just conveniently pops up a few weeks after the controversy. I always thought that controlled double-blind clinical trials took years, not weeks…
This was an analysis of existing literature. Very normal and within the window of that gets called a “study” these days.

“A ban on transgender women in Olympic sports is edging closer and is strongly expected to be in place for the LA Games in 2028 – but it remains unclear if there will be barriers against athletes with differences of sexual development (DSD) after the boxing furore at Paris 2024.
Under the existing rules, each Olympic sport is empowered to decide if transgender women can compete if their testosterone levels fall below a designated threshold.
But the International Olympic Committee, under new president Kirsty Coventry, is in discussions around a dramatic policy shift that would impose a blanket ban across all sports, preventing the kind of scenario that saw Laurel Hubbard contest the weightlifting at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. Hubbard transitioned in 2012.”

There are few obvious threads connecting the group who broke the partisan impasse this time. Some of them helped broker the agreement with Republicans over the opposition of Schumer and most other Democrats, who wanted a guaranteed extension for expiring federal health insurance subsidies.
Most, but not all, previously held state-level office — including four former governors. Most, but not all, come from presidential swing states. Two have announced they are retiring from the Senate after their current terms end, and two are senior members of the Senate Appropriations Committee.
None are up for reelection in 2026.

If I’m going to watch group masturbation it better be a bunch of college cuties.

JFC you can’t even parody these types any more.
And they wonder why the rest of the world is sick of their shit.
Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia
Kaine represents about 150,000 federal workers affected by the shutdown and backed the deal that includes a key provision for his state: reinstatement of federal workers impacted by mass “reduction in force” firings during the shutdown.
“This legislation will protect federal workers from baseless firings, reinstate those who have been wrongfully terminated during the shutdown, and ensure federal workers receive back pay,” he said in a statement. Kaine admitted Sunday night that he was a latecomer to the group, saying, “I joined it 48 hours ago, not for lack of interest.”
The best kind of compromise.
Jumps in front of the parade so he can later claim he organized and led it.
“The fevered rumors have exposed not a secret affair but a political liability: Vance’s marriage is an increasingly poor fit for his political brand, which has become increasingly based on praising the virtues of white supremacy and retrograde gender roles…
Based on the xenophobia and anti-South Asian sentiment that courses through the MAGA body politic, the vice president could be better marketed as President Donald Trump‘s successor if he had a wife who looked more like Erika Kirk….
Everyone with two eyes can see he’s in a pickle, having burdened himself with a wife in his youth who quickly became unacceptable in the political fantasy he is trying to create, one that is increasingly indistinguishable from Nazi propaganda imagining a “homeland” populated only by strong-jawed Aryan men and their buxom blonde wives. If Vance doesn’t like these rumors about Erika Kirk, maybe he should pause to consider why they are just so easy for people to believe.”

Well, that settles it.
Vance has grown increasingly loud about his obvious embrace of blood-and-soil nationalism. While never coming right out and saying so
It couldn’t be more obvious.
He needs to be unburdened by what has been?
If Vance doesn’t like these rumors about Erika Kirk, maybe he should pause to consider why they are just so easy for people to believe.
They are very fine people.
The projection is strong here.

Amanduh needs to seek help for her terminal case of racism exhibit MCMLXIX.
I didn’t even realize that was Amanda. It’s a toss up between her and Rachel Maddow for the most delusional lefty.
Whenever I lay eyes on a passage this completely unhinged, particularly one that is on the subject of gender relations and such, I know it’s Amanda.
Once again – no matter how much you hate the pundit class, it’s not enough. They are all horrible people.
so easy for people to believe
Because you are Amanda Retardacotte. Stop making it to easy.
I dont get it. A decade or so ago Amanduh wrote an extensive article outright admitting she is mentally ill, has a long history of it and is receiving treatment for it.
They still let her in front of a keyboard? WTH? DEI?
She has the unique and sought-after skill of confirming people’s existing biases, while pushing them even further to the left.
‘ Vance’s marriage is an increasingly poor fit for his political brand,’
The only people I’ve heard complaining about his marriage are Democrats. Not surprising that the party of actual racism in the government hates it when people marry outside their race and faith.
Just crazy shit.
But I am getting a bit tired of seeing, on Fox, Erika Kirk wiping tears from her eyes.
It’s a thick pea soup of her, and faith, and country singers, and Jesus commercials, and on and on over there now.
Meanwhile, right-wing podcasters are still talking about Israel being behind Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
There is that chart going around showing how there is more variety of thought on the right than on the left, and I think that’s good. But this is just the right returning to the mean, which includes a bit of crazy-ass conspiracy theories.
True, although it seems part of this far-reaching trend to blame Israel for everything. Followed by “Tucker is not MAGA!”
“Meanwhile, right-wing podcasters are still talking about Israel being behind Charlie Kirk’s assassination.”
It gets them a lot of clicks form scummy people..
So why wouldn’t they when they are just out to make a profit? My point is that people should choose whom they listen to for commentary, wisely..
It doesn’t seem about money.
I watched the first couple of episodes of Wayward over the weekend while drunk. So very, very stereotypcially Netflix.
Which is funny, because so far the narrative could very well be antiwoke, but the hero is a transmale cop who looks like pre-puberty Justin Bieber (and had me LOLing when “he” managed to fight off a panicking male teenager) and the tiny VT town where the 1960s hippie/commie New [Woke] Man school/cult indoctrination center is just choc-a-bloc with PoCs loudly performing queerness at the community grocery store.
You infringing on our woke-Charmed (and whatever other absurd show she was reviewing) turf?
I am far too lazy to do a writeup to MLW’s standards.
You could do it as a mashup of MLW and The Critical Drinker (since you’re watching in suitable non-sobriety).
Hmm. Maybe with the proper voice transcription app…
I do wonder exactly how into the joke the showrunners are. They do a disturbingly good job about making one of the Canadian high school girls overly sexualized jailbait with the appropriate loser 20-something boyfriend.
Pass.
Yeah…I was just imagining Theodore Dalrymple doing ten thousand facepalms.
I think they even gave the dude a Bieber haircut (not really sure, not a belieber myself), which again makes me wonder if they’re leaning into the joke.
From the trailer:
https://youtu.be/2kSNuohhKyc?t=24
I enjoyed the first few episodes of the show, but kinda fucked up/depressing to watch.
“Robinson has been reported to have played pornographic video games featuring furry characters and followed accounts that shared cartoons showing pedophilia. Online accounts that were unearthed allegedly belonging to Robinson on gaming platform Steam reveal that Robinson was a viewer of gay pornography, including that which involved “furry” characters. He had downloaded and played a game called “Furry Shades of Gray,” which is described as being about “love, queer relationships, hot gay sex, and slapstick humor.”
Robinson reportedly played so frequently that he’d earned an anthropomorphic cat character who dresses as a French maid. The game also has “24 hot animated voice sex scenes.” The username he had to play that game, Craftin247, was also used to view content by “RedRusker,” who is an artist that creates gay furry porn, including furry characters using drugs and engaging with under-age furry characters. He followed another artist, called “Obure,” who shared and created furry content and very overweight women eating.”

“He argued that the ongoing decline in police staffing is not due to his policies or rhetoric but rather to the strain placed on officers. Mamdani reiterated his plan to remove certain responsibilities from police and transfer them to social workers through the creation of a new Department of Community Safety.
“When we began, there were about 200 officers leaving a month, and by the end of the campaign, it was about 350,” the mayor-elect said. “And a lot of that has to do with the fact that we’ve asked police officers for far too long to do much more than just police work. We’ve asked them to be responding to the mental health crisis and the homelessness crisis, and that’s why we’re going to create a Department of Community Safety that will be tasked with accomplishing those facts and allowing police officers to be police officers.””

WCPGW?
True to form, he’s already blaming everyone else for the inevitable failure of his shitty policies.
No different from Trump in that way….
Not even a stretch for him to name his Emmanuel Goldstein, is it?
These idiots all fail to mention that when the going gets tough, social workers always call the police, and the going is always tough for them.
So, less cops, just as much BS crime.
Dead social workers.
Is that wrong?
What’s wrong with that?
It’s good for the culture.
I hate social workers more than I hate cops.
They can catch bullets all day as far as I’m concerned.
Why not just call it the ‘Bureau of Public Safety’? No appreciation of historical cachet?
What he really needs is a committee tasked with city security.

“Rip health coverage from11 million insureds”
Right. That is what Obama did when he outlawed cheap catastrophic coverage and basic policies. Working people on Obamacare previously had coverage they wanted, which was affordable. Burn it all away and go back to how it was. All Obamacare did was fund healthcare for illegals. Even the homeless could get healthcare services before Obamacare. It was all a giant lie.
BTW, RJ –
Not sure if you saw my earlier message but hit me up at my handle at proton and I’ll send over our careers link – well established, good-sized tech company with most jobs eligible for remote work.
Sorry to hear about your impending work troubles.
That was the point.
Precipitate the collapse.
Wait… isn’t it just ending the subsidies, not the plans? So it’s not taking health coverage away from people, it’s not paying for health coverage for people. That’s a hell of a difference there.
Oh, thank you. I will do so.
Not giving is taking.

Throughout this whole thing, I don’t understand why Republicans haven’t been shouting from the rooftops, “Wait. You assholes already fixed health care. You promised cheap health care, big savings, keep your doctor, everyone insured. What happened?”

“Leaked Call Exposes State Department-Backed “Color Revolution” with Global Partners — Ex-USAID Staff Admit Coordinating Encrypted Networks and Foreign NGOs Against Trump Administration”

Those that still believe, after the revelations of how coordinated and evil the globalist marxist leftist agenda is and how deep it has infiltrated our government bureaucracy, that you can vote your way or fairly win this fight, are going to be the end of our ability to stop this evil. The cabal that wants to murder 3/4 of humanity and turn the rest into serfs serving the new permanent global feudal lords and systems, is playing for keeps. They know they have wrecked the planet’s economy with their ineptness and self serving criminal enterprises, and are desperate to prevent any populist movement from reaching the point it can hold them accountable as the system the elite have broken, collapses.
it is an existential battle. We fight to win, or we lose ugly and return to the old feudal ways.
“A reportedly transgender high school history teacher in Virginia is on leave after posting an image to his Instagram of a “rainbow gun” pointed at a person’s head and the demand “PUT THE PRONOUNS BACK IN THE EMAIL.”
The image (pictured), posted on X by Libs of TikTok, depicts an arm holding a pistol (both colored as a rainbow) held at the back of a man’s head, with the “pronoun” demand written directly above.
According to WSET, Sabrina Morris (pictured) teaches at George Washington High School in the Danville Public Schools (Virginia) district. A district spokesperson said local police are involved in the matter, and that Morris “will not be present on school grounds while this matter is under investigation.””

Two comments – first, Virginia dems have already demonstrated that they’ll happily elect murderous sociopaths, so expect to see more of this. Second, Danville public schools are already among the worst in the state. You’d think that the employees would have other shit to worry about…
Yes, it is incredible the people Virginians will elect. Pretty grim stuff.
Are they Virginians? Or DC leeches who happen to live in VA?
Oh come on.

“Somehow the Dolphins beat the Bills. The Patriots are red hot.”
Basically the nightmares of all Bills fans have come true over the weekend. Sucks hard.
The Patriots are just hugely benefiting from an easy schedule. Sure, they beat the Bills and Bucs, but they also lost to the Raiders. I think they’ll be one-and-done in the playoffs this year, but as a Pats fan I will still be okay with it.
She’s got what he wanted
“The government needs to open and it needs to open immediately. We need the president to demonstrate leadership, bringing people together, endeavoring to get through whatever negotiations need to get through, whether it’s before or after,” Spanberger told CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday, before senators came to an agreement that could potentially end the shutdown.
She added that her priority as the incoming governor of Virginia is “focusing on the needs and the devastation, frankly, that more than 300,000 Virginians are facing.”
Asked whether congressional Democrats should view Democratic victories last week as a sign that voters support their push to keep the government closed until they reach a deal on ACA subsidies, Spanberger said, “Absolutely not.”
As long as my voters are covered, who cares about anything else?
devastation
TIL some of the most highly paid people in the country live paycheck to paycheck and can’t handle even a temporary delay.
‘The agreement also includes a reversal of the mass firings of federal workers by the Trump administration since the shutdown began on Oct. 1 and would ensure that federal workers receive back pay.’
What the fuck are the repubs doing??? I heard this on the news and thought I had to have misheard. You already got past the election, let the Dems keep taking L’s. It is majority their folks not getting payments. ffs.
They’ll probably put the subsidies back too. Fucking hell.
They always manage to snag failure from the jaws of victory.
Every damn time.

Hey now, some of us live here.
This was the best read of my morning, no my month. It’s not really groundbreaking for everyone here, but it is amazing how little the vast majority of Americans know this, including the entire left and most of the “center” and a fair portion of conservatives. If one single piece of knowledge could become as well known as Kim Kardashian’s ass, this would be the most transformative. Little wonder why it is not discussed aside from those into such things as Austrian economic theory.

Many times over the last decade or so I have interrupted discussions of the economy by asking the other person to explain what money is. Invariably I get sputtering and non-answers. I then explain simply and carefully that the dollar is a unit of measure. Like an inch is a unit of measure to measure length, dollars are units of measure for measuring resources. Dollars are not resources any more than inches are lumber.
When I see the light come on I ask them “Did anyone ever explain this to you in school? Ever? Even allude to it?”
Invariably the answer is no.
More so in the rest of the world but here in the US also to a degree is the unspoken premise that the general population individuals are born into bondage. The notion that the populace are a resource to be exploited and from birth they are conditioned to be such. They are lied to every fucking day of their lives and kept as ignorant as possible.
Interesting anecdote: I had written some sputtering start for an article and while I was working on it one of my stepson’s friends was at the house. She walked by, saw what I was up to and asked “What are you writing?”
“Oh, trying to stir shit. Here, read this and tell me what you think.”
She sat down, got to the second paragraph and saw “Every person’s mind, body,conscience and the fruit of their labor are exclusively their own property by virtue of their humanity”
She literally started trembling, stood up, jabbed her finger at me and said very emphatically “THAT IS A LIE!” then angrily stomped off. I was shocked. I never actually saw the girl again except once at some formal function. She was very friendly to me then but I dont know what that meant.
Heheh, love it. I wish your school curriculum would be well disseminated across the lands. I guess you got a bit too close to an uncomfortable truth for the young lady. To us here that sounds axiomatic, but it is still, amazingly, a revolutionary idea to most. Outside the US, and maybe a couple other places, it is pure heresy.
Pick any mark and confront them with incontrovertible evidence that says “You’ve been had” and you will get a similar violent reaction.
I wonder what that girl is doing these days. That’s been fifteen years ago.
She likely has a No Kings tshirt and swoons over the NYC commie.
I tickled the top 3% before covid.
I think I’m still I. The top 10% but with the massive inflation it feels like I’m back to when I was making about $70,000.
So much for ever retiring, buying a nicer house, or any investment property.
My wife took a new job in late 21 before the economy really hit the shitter and inflation went rampant. That new job was about a 45% raise over her previous job.
Unfortunately we’re not significantly better off than we were before the economy took a dump. And despite what the numbers (or Trump) says about the economy, it still sucks.
Paid for house and business and I feel like I’m treading water making good money.
I’m glad I have no debt. Otherwise it would be tight.
I refuse to send my kids to the government schools, even here in Idaho they are woke AF and nothing but throwing an iPad in front of your kids.
I’ll bust my ass so that my wife can avoid working outside of the home and my kids aren’t turned into gay communists.
An interesting exchange on the news this morning. A protestor calling ICE agents “Gestapo.” And an ICE agent responding that “we aren’t the Gestapo, we are just enforcing the laws.” It somehow doesn’t seem like a fitting rejoinder. Weren’t the actual Nazi Gestapo just “enforcing the laws” of Germany?
Yes, but they were also doing a bunch of other stuff that was outside the law, even for Nazi Germany. And that’s without even going into what the laws actually were.
But I agree that, “…we aren’t the Gestapo, we are just enforcing the laws,” isn’t a good rejoinder.
A better one would be, “Shut the fuck up, Karen.”
The best rejoinder would be “Dems had years of complete control, and could have changed the law at any point. They didn’t, so they knew what they were doing was wrong.”
Tim Walz called them “gazpacho”. Because he’s retarded.
Wait… isn’t it just ending the subsidies, not the plans? So it’s not taking health coverage away from people, it’s not paying for health coverage for people. That’s a hell of a difference there.
They’re still doing the bait and switch of insurance vs “health care”.
TIL some of the most highly paid people in the country live paycheck to paycheck and can’t handle even a temporary delay.
Their cars are being repossessed as we speak. Their mortgages are being foreclosed. Their children roam the streets shoeless, begging for scraps!
