For us football fans, December means actual meaningful games as the teams sort out who’s going to the playoffs and at which seed. Mojeaux’s beloved Mahomeses are, of course, going to be sitting this one out, much to the distress of the Swifties. But the Ravens are still in it, if just barely, and play the Sunday night game. So I’m spending the day pre-gaming, casting spells, kidnapping Christian babies for sacrificial rituals,
People turned their year-clock up another tick as of today include a guy who was a rare breed; a guy who was not glad to get stoned; a switch hitter who struck out both ways; a guy who was just someone else’s mouthpiece or vice-versa; a guy for whom “Come to papa” took on a new meaning; a guy who was a massive contributor to the toilet death-spiral of network TV; a specialist in anti-aircraft artillery; arguably the finest American composer of the 20th century; one of the inspirations for San Francisco’s Vibrator Museum; the leading spokesman for the American Academy of Stupid Eyeglasses; TV’s finest MILF; an athlete whose name should have made her an assassin; and someone whose name was truly his destiny.
And our destiny is Links.
Can anybody keep track of all this shit? The separatists separating from the separatists, or something. Meh, let them fight it out among themselves for control of a shithole, as long as we stay the fuck out of it. Archive version.
That said, it only took them a day to fuck it up.
Roll that beautiful propaganda footage. It’s incredible to me that anyone buys this shit.

Hey, Nephilium! Look at this! Someone thinks December has meaningful football
/kicks rock
Kicking Mike Brown, Katie Blackburn, and Duke Tobin would be more helpful. Especially if you kick them hard enough, enough times.
*snork*
I get the once-a-year Browns appearance today here. I can’t remember how many QB’s they’ve cycled through since the last time I observed them.
Well some crap teams will look good as opponents which have already clinched playoffs rest their starters for a game or two.
Yeah, some idiot was talking about a scenario where the Cowboys go to the playoffs. Ain’t happening.
Looks at schedule for who Ravens are
playinglosing to tonight.Vikes are out too.
I still think it is better to miss the playoffs and rebuild than it is to keep getting into the playoffs and then get whupped in the first round. The Vikes keep limping into the playoffs and don’t get enough draft picks to rebuild.
a guy for whom “Come to papa” took on a new meaning
Happy birthday François Duvalier!

I thought that was Al Gore.
Not Chuck Barris either.
I was thinking Geraldo.

I respect the hell out of Zappa’s politics and persona, but his music… Oy vey.
I know I heard a good deal of his work because for whatever reason my dad liked it.
It’s so forgettable I have to be reminded it exists, and still can’t remember any of it.
I think it is generational. On a parr with Green Day.
I’ve never seen the appeal myself but de gustibus and such.
I’m younger than both of you, and while I’m not a huge Zappa fan, you should collectively be beaten with sacks of oranges for the Green Day comparison.
I started listening to Zappa after running across The Persuasions singing his songs acapella
I like Zappa, but don’t understand the love he gets from other musicians. Sort of like Albert Brooks getting raves from comedians.
I am a prog rock fan and a lot of prog draws on Zappa. But for me, the music is not enjoyable to listen to. It’s sort of like he’s a lab scientist that invented some cool stuff but then the engineers had to come in and figure out how to actual turn that shit into something useful that people might want.
Happy birthday John Lennon?
Happy birthday Milo Yiannopoulos?
I don’t think he’s gone to bat the other way.

rough sleepers?
Apparently all right-thinkers know this term. Although my understanding was we had switched to
“unhoused”“persons experiencing homelessness.”We’d never have to change terms if you people would stop stigmatizing!!! /tards
change terms
I don’t understand how people think the words used to describe a condition *create* the stigma vs. being a descriptive term for condition that posses elements that people find distasteful, disturbing or worthy of pity. Whatever term you come up with will inherit the stigma because the words are not what’s creating it in the first place. Very primitive/totemic thought process.
PM because these morons really believe words create reality. Which is a play on that ancient Greek John “In the beginning…”.
I think “sleeping rough” is more of a British English thing.
Which is a play on that ancient Greek John “In the beginning…”.
Those silly superstitions held that there was a being capable of creating a new reality simply by speaking it into existence. That is so silly, that being didn’t even have a degree from an Ivy! Obviously it is up to us to create the brave new world, but first we really must do something about the fascists standing in our way.

Crying and whining aren’t going to really do anything, but that’s par for their course.
If you cry loudly enough you can motivate some of the pet lunatics to do something.
The only Jim O’Connell I know dude this spring and had a pile of machine guns. Never could afford to buy one from him though. I wanted the Finnish 20mm he had.
I think it’s a Brit phrase.
Also used in Australia and NZ.
Same same
I think it’s the currently-fashionable euphemism on the other side of the Atlantic.
And I’m guessing “federal funding for housing” is supposed to refer to the spectacularly-failed “housing first” policies which put mentally ill people into new housing at great taxpayer expense.
Also, “centres.” Brit-speak confirmed.
As a kid, “sleeping rough” was often used for anyone sleeping outside.
My buddies and I coined “jean jacket camping” to describe a trip where we went out drinking in the woods and it was expected that you’d drink so much that the only camping gear needed was just your jean jacket. Anyone who complained about being miserable because we had no tents or sleeping bags was proclaimed a pussy.
“I admit to being disappointed that my favorite congressman has taken the lead on the distraction from important things like”

“Albanese, under pressure from critics who say his center-left government has not done enough to curb a surge in antisemitism since the start of the war in Gaza, was not scheduled to speak at the event.”
What was he supposed to do?
No idea how that’s “A preview of our politics after the next Team Blue takeover” though.
Team Blue guy/gal/theythem leans into antisemitism, bad shit happens, acts faux-concerned in direct opposition to years of statements to the contrary, gets roundly booed in public whenever he/she/it appears outside their Prog City bubble. And hopefully voted out (but it runs so deep in the urban areas and in “intellectual” circles that this is questionable).

Don’t you DARE say that about my sweet, sweet Bailey.

“The missing files, which were available Friday and no longer accessible by Saturday, included images of paintings depicting nude women, and one showing a series of photographs along a credenza and in drawers. In that image, inside a drawer among other photos, was a photograph of Trump, alongside Epstein, Melania Trump and Epstein’s longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell.”
I’m guessing they were removed because of the nudity.
Nudity on the intertubes? Well, I never!
The government of Ukraine may be corrupt, but ordinary Ukrainians saw themselves as—and were—fighting to defend their homes and their freedom against invasion by an external empire that appeared to have all the hallmarks of evil.

“Starting March 2024 the Federal law required microwave ovens to be equipped with an electronic door lock safety function. The oven door is locked automatically after it’s use to prevent burns, access, and accidentally being operated by children or anyone unfamiliar with its use when removing hot food or beverages after cooking.”
Everyone responsible for this law should be beaten and thrown into a vat of hot soup.

“Health-conscious City Councilman Oswald J. Feliz is taking a stand against absurd levels of sodium, targeting some of the Big Apple’s most popular restaurants.

Huh, almost like it was designed to get rid of a certain kind of restaurant.
Who tend to throw a lot more salt in their food than chains do.
How many milligrams is a handful anyway?
Don’t salt more than your palm can hold?
I thought people had gotten over this whole ‘salt is bad for you’ thing. Maybe I was confusing a politician with a rational, thinking person though.
Someone tell my PCP.
Hey, Angeldust, Salt is a vital nutrient.
my PCP
If he’s adhering to the guidelines – and that’s what most physicians do, whether partly out of laziness, partly out business, and partly out of fear of legal reprisal/loss of licensure if they don’t – he’s advising you to eat way less salt than is necessary for optimal function.
Obviously, one can eat too much salt and maybe eating out 3 times a day every day gets you there, but salt is another one of those classic linear dose relationship errors and confusion of chronic and acute impacts.
Either way, fuck Oswald J Feliz in the ear with a rusty q-tip.
You expect doctors to remember their stats course?
I can think of two, maybe three, current pols who understand statistics.
This is probably the least outrageous proposal we are going to see from a NYC council-critter following The Zohran’s ascension. The crazy is going to go off the charts next year and he will sign all of it.
“Trump administration reps have just revealed a grandiose $112 billion plan to rebuild war-torn Gaza into a futuristic international destination dubbed “Project Sunrise.”
The 10-year development plan, drafted by first son-in-law Jared Kushner, US special envoy Steve Witkoff, and two top White House aides, is currently courting investor countries with a 32-slide PowerPoint presentation detailing the bold plan to renovate burning rubble into beach resorts.
Gaza would see the development of luxury hotels, high speed rail and AI-optimized smart grid features that would revolutionize the small slice of the coveted Mediterranean coastline into a bustling metropolis, the Wall Street Journal reported….
The total $112 billion cost would be spread out over 10 years, with the US agreeing to cover $60 billion in grants and guarantees on debts.”

*but
Buy works.
with the US agreeing to cover $60 billion in grants and guarantees on debts.
Fuck THAT shit. Might as well pile up the $100 bills into a stack the size of the World Trade Center and have a huge bonfire.
At least that would reduce inflation.
Indeed, fuck THAT shit. Not one dime of taxpayer money should directly or indirectly support any project in Gaza or the West Bank. If the Arab world decides to fund it, whatever.
🙄
It’s much more useful to the UN in its current form.
This makes those “Ski Afghanistan” t-shirts seem less absurd.
Gaza should be on the hook to pay us several billion a year. Just because they are a nuisance.
Last month, the Trump administration kicked off its latest effort to end the Russia-Ukraine war with its “28-point peace plan,” reportedly authored by Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner and delivered to the Ukrainians on Nov. 20. In an abrupt 180-degree turn from what had looked like the increasingly pro-Ukrainian drift of administration policy, the plan endorsed maximalist Russian positions on territorial concessions and was delivered to Kyiv as an ultimatum, backed by the threat of total abandonment if Ukraine refused to comply.
Yeah, I’m not reading that.
“‘And the whites were quick to say this. They said, “Charlie Kirk is this generation’s Martin Luther King.” No, he’s not,’ Chappelle said.
He added: ‘That’s a reach. You know, they both got murdered in a terrible fashion, they both got shot in the neck, but that’s about where those similarities end.’
Chappelle continued: ‘Charlie Kirk is a mother—in’ internet personality. By design, fundamentally, he can’t function like Dr. King. Internet n—-s are negative because they have to be, ’cause nobody will engage them unless they say s— that makes them upset. That’s Charlie Kirk.’
Then he quizzed the crowd by asking: ‘Could you imagine if Dr. King was behaving like Charlie Kirk? “Smash that like button and subscribe! Follow me for more content like this! I believe all Black people should be free — change my mind.”‘”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-15402365/Dave-Chappelle-stuns-audience-Charlie-Kirk-comment-surprise-Netflix-comedy-special.html
It was a different time.
King was a preacher. He absolutely would have.
To say nothing of the question of how MLK would have approached his activism in today’s media environment, that’s, IMNSHO, a mischaracterization of what Kirk was doing. He wasn’t saying ‘shit’ to piss people off and get notoriety. He was actively promoting ideas he believed in, some that were an anathema to certain sectors of society. Much like MLK in fact. While I admittedly didn’t really pay much attention to Kirk, only a vague awareness of the name, I don’t think he was much of the ‘smash that like button and subscribe!’ kind of actor.
Fair enough. MLK Jr. was a demagogue, not a debater, if you want to sanctify that. Nevertheless, he used the mass media that was available at the time. It’s like saying Abraham Lincoln would never have appeared at a televised debate.
Muslim criticized Christians.

Congress is wrapping up the year in the shadow of the longest government shutdown and with a growing reputation as the least productive in modern history.
“Congress is in a coma. It has a pulse, but not many brainwaves,” said former Rep. Jim Cooper, a Democrat who represented Tennessee for 32 years. “It’s hard to tell that it’s even alive as an institution.”
Knock it off with that “least productive” crap. That just means they haven’t pounded enough money down the progressive rathole to suit you.
I thought NPR died without govt funding?
NPR is fiercely independent, and only gets 0.000001% of its budget from government funding, which is why it needs government funding to remain fiercely independent…
If he wants to be productive, get all the congress tards to line up, dip in the tar vat, then jump in the pit full of feathers.
This bizarre notion that you want an active legislature needs to be beaten out of people. Even if you love the State and want it everywhere, surely you don’t want its demands to constantly change. Legislation is the rulebook. It is never good when the rules of the game are constantly changing.
At least half the country couldn’t pass a middle school civics exam. They don’t know or care what role legislation serves, they just want to be assured that someone, somewhere, is working on procuring their pony for them.
Every time a progressive rule fails, it must be doubled-down on – sorta like dragon’s teeth.
Too bad the rules of the game changing is exactly what the left is all about.
You’ve got an automatic baseline of around half the country that demands constant change.

Nice. I prefer that to turkey and ham.
That’s a lot of sausage! Depending on how many people get to partake, that might last (frozen, of course) until Easter!
some will be frozen
Looks good.
I usually do a pork tenderloin, but I’ve had a hankering for chicken tacos lately, so I’m making that for Christmas dinner this year. Plenty of red and green on the plate, so it’s still festive.
We’ve postponed getting together with my siblings until the Saturday after Christmas (when we’ll meet at a restaurant,) so we’re planning to make ourselves a big pot of tortellini soup (with little Italian sausage meatballs! 😋) on Christmas Day. (Too many carbs for my diabetic sister, so we haven’t had it on Christmas for a few years.) And of course, now that we have all the fixings for the soup, it’s going to be unseasonably warm on Christmas, with a predicted high of 60 degrees. 🙄
Nice!
The Christmas forecast is 83 here…
83? Have you gone to a land downunder?
Low 72 and high of 79 predicted for XMas here.
Happy Solstice to you all! I hope that you have a great next trip around the Sun.

“A Florida woman was arrested Wednesday after allegedly killing both of her ex-husbands in separate shootings that occurred on the same day.
48-year-old Susan Avalon faces murder charges in connection with the shooting death of a 54-year-old ex-husband at his home in Manatee County around 3 pm. Investigators said Avalon had traveled more than 50 miles from Tampa, where she allegedly killed another ex-husband earlier in the day. Authorities believe ongoing custody battles with her former spouses contributed to the murders.”

The incident occurred on August 15 at the Sacramento City College light rail station after bystanders called 911 to report a man on board the train waving a “machete type of knife.” Police arrived and found 44-year-old Dante Dwaine Day alone on the train holding the knife, after other passengers had already fled…
After de-escalation efforts failed, officers fired a bean bag shotgun at Day, which appeared to agitate him. Police said Day then lunged toward officers with the knife, prompting an officer to open fire with lethal rounds.”

Pope – out of curiosity, what are implications of Da Bearss victory over the Packers for the Vikings playoff position?
Just addressed it above.
I’d rather see the Vikes miss the playoffs and get better draft picks and an easier schedule next year, than for them to limp into the playoffs and get bounced right away.
I’m also looking forward to the opportunity for the Vikes to fuck over the Packer’s and Lion’s playoff hopes.
The Bears are having one of those lightning in a bottle seasons. Everything has gone perfectly for them. Lucky bounces, all the good QBs they were supposed to face ended up hurt, easiest schedule in the division.
They almost lost to the Vikes twice. That should tell you how bad they really are.
Won’t anyone think of the poor Minnesoda Somalis?

“I believe many of them will need therapy following the crackdown.”
Appears they’ve assimilated better than I would’ve thought.
I’m sure our vibrant new neighbors will set up thousands of Childhood Stress Therapy Centers and use them to defraud the taxpayers.
Cutting their daughter’s clits off with rusty tin can lids, committing genocides, and battling other tribal warlords for control of the best raiding grounds did not prepare them from the unbridled cruelty of Americans not liking them!
(((Jarflax:
To be fair, we got the sissy Somalis that ran away to Ethiopia when things got tough.
The Blackhawk Down bad-ass Somalis are still there shooting at each other. The Delicate Somalis that we got don’t have the same grit, so they might not be able to handle Command Sgt. Major Walz and his administration’s draconian policies.
It is funny that the Somalis are now claiming to be victims of racism against black people.
The rub locally here has been Somali vs American black people. The Somalis have been very vocal about the fact that their ancestors were never slaves and therefore are way better than the local blacks.
For some reason the local blacks haven’t been receptive to that message at all.
To us whities, it is amusing because the Somalis are a very ugly group. It is pretty easy to pick them out from the natives. Big forehead, pot belly, no muscles, buck teeth. That is what the typical Somali looks like.
Some of the women, including Ilhan Omar, are pretty. No one has seen anything besides her face though.
So if their ancestors weren’t slaves, then what were they, slave catchers? Hard to believe their are any ethnic groups in the world that weren’t one or the other, and likely both, at some point in history.
Don’t believe it
“The downside surprise reflects weakness in both goods and services, but may be partly due to methodological issues. The BLS might have carried forward prices in some categories, effectively assuming 0% inflation,” Michael Gapen, chief U.S. economist at Morgan Stanley, said in a note, deeming the November reading as “noisy” in a way that’s “difficult to draw strong conclusions.”
“If these technical factors are the main source of weakness, we could see reacceleration in December,” Gapen added.
You can’t believe government numbers (when Trump’s in charge).
The data doesn’t match the model, so clearly there must be a problem with the data.
Although I don’t trust the government numbers, regardless of which numbnut is warming a seat in the white house.
I remember when Biden was in charge and it was decided that the old definition of a recession (2 quarters of decline) was no longer correct. It was a recession only when The Man decided it was a recession.
I wonder if anyone decided to update the Econ 101 text books with that new definition?

Outrage
The Delaware Supreme Court ruled late Friday afternoon that the Court of Chancery was wrong in its decision to rescind all of Musk’s pay package, though it still accepted that some sort of penalty (“nominal damages”) is warranted.
It set that penalty in the amount of $1. In addition, the attorneys who sued Tesla (the plaintiffs) will be able to recoup attorneys fees (which will end up amounting in the hundreds of millions).
The court stated that while it may have accepted an argument that Musk should be entitled to part of the package – in recognition of how excessive the final package ended up being – the plaintiffs didn’t actually make that argument. The plaintiffs only offered complete rescission as a remedy, which the court decided was too “extreme.”
——-
And so, because plaintiffs didn’t make an offer for partial rescission of the pay package, and because the Court of Chancery didn’t itself craft a decision that partially rescinds the package (which it is allowed to do), the Supreme Court had to choose between giving Musk everything or nothing, and it chose to give him everything. Well, minus the attorney’s fees.
You wouldn’t want the guild members to lose out. That might discourage the next round of claims.
CEOs are overpaid, plaintiff’s attorneys are hard working middle class artisans who deserve more, why they are practically proletariat!
Delaware, a medium sized county should not have a Supreme Court or two senators.
Musk moved to Texas hoping that he would be able to benefit from corruption there and push policies that would help him personally and harm shareholder rights – like a new law that bans shareholders from bringing actions like this court case unless they hold billions of dollars in Tesla stock.
Texas is a third world corruptocracy. Everybody knows that.

What he did not initially disclose is that those “decisions” resulted in four felony counts, including first-degree and second-degree child molestation, and contributing to the delinquency of a minor….
Despite prosecutors recommending a 40-year sentence, a Superior Court judge handed English a 20-year sentence with more than 90 percent suspended, meaning he served just 15 months before being released early for “good behavior.”
If that were not disturbing enough, English later violated a court-ordered no-contact order involving the same victim. In 2009, the victim reported that English drove to her home and attempted to initiate contact.
He was found guilty and sentenced to five more years, ultimately serving nearly two additional years behind bars before being placed under house arrest.”

WTF??
Perhaps, if I dare say, providentially… there was a contemporary Christian music singer back in the ’90s by the same name who got run out of the industry after siring a love child during an affair with a married woman with whose band he was touring.
Musk is bad for Tesla
He’s been an unbelievably bad CEO in recent years, making threats against his own company, causing business chaos, and stealing Tesla resources to channel to his own private use.
This was accompanied by an unwise entry into politics both in the US and abroad, driven by his twitter addiction. His politics have largely focused on pushing white supremacist nonsense including support for German neo-Nazis and agreeing with a defense of Hitler, and funding and supporting groups that oppose renewable energy and vehicle electrification.
Why haven’t the shareholders voted him out?
“vehicle electrification”
He’s obviously against that.
“TV’s finest MILF;”
Don’t recognize her. Was expecting either Donna Stone (Donna Reed) or Laura Petrie (Mary Tyler Moore).
Pam Bundy?
