Saturday evening Links

Yep! Big footballs weekend. We’re not far from entering a six month football drought, and Spud is melancholy. The spring league just doesn’t cut it. Oh, well. Guess I’ll go somewhere warm next month.

Links?

Good luck with that, Lou.

Everybody hates the Dutch.

DHS has always been a bad idea, you stupid fucks.

It was around long before Good got popped in the head.

“It’s an extremely ambitious goal.”

Putting his money where his mouth is.

OMB is just pissing people off all over the world. That’s like half their population.

Ideology, above all else.

Shout out to whoever raptor4916 is. This is why this place exists. From the Twitters:

@raptor4916

The reason commentariat went to shit when reason refused to cover a female relative of a commentator got the absolute tar beaten out of her by the police in order to run another Trump bad piece.

@wartyhugeman

probably can give more details.

Alright, that’s it for me. Peace out, Glibbies.

I do enjoy me some Blues Traveler.

    Liberal academics have been diagnosing what they see as the problem.

    Preach, sisters.

    /dedthread alleyoop: re: NFL – It’s good I don’t care about football cuz I’m always rooting for an exciting game. Hopefully I get ’em. But I kinda like the Bills cuz Buffalo’s a small market and underdogish. I kinda like the Broncos cuz Dad like Elway, who *was* fun. And Manning won there, too. So that’s nice. Go good games. And fuck the Dodgers. (We may agree on that, yes?)

    • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

      I am now a Dodgers fan. ish. My grandfather was born in LA, and since SF has no baseball team, just cheaters and junkies, I will root for them now that the A’s have moved to LV.

    • rhywun

      Overtime. Huh, wasn’t expecting that after giving up hope multiple times across several quarters.

      • Chafed

        This is a tight game.

  3. Evan from Evansville

    Have repeated aloud what many here said: Take away the helmets if you don’t want head on head contact. Start of the 3rd? Same tackles, no helmets? Uh. 911. For both dudes. (Likely four, actually.)

    • rhywun

      That gets you about half of the way to rugby or Aussie Rules. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      • Evan from Evansville

        I think rugby’s great! My favorite sport after baseball and hockey. (I did play both.) I mentioned the other day, my favorite sporting moment was a surprise ‘Join us!’ ticket to the World Rugby Sevens in Hong Kong. I stand by it.

        I ‘get’ football, but never played, so I don’t ‘get-get’ it and have zero care. Basketball sucks cuz each point doesn’t matter. (You’re gonna score 100 more, so no worries!) Soccer is…damn. Just boring. “Center holds it. Holds it… HOLDS IT!!!” I’d rather watch figure skating or just dancing if attractive girls are involved, and I hold dancing in a level of hell lower than Judas and Brutus know.

    There are signs that the categorization of Ms. Good as a radical may not be taking hold among the broader public.

    More a pathetic hapless dupe than a terrorist.

    • R C Dean

      Pathetic, hapless, deluded, entitled.

      But no, not a terrorist.

      Arrest the AWFLs, charge them with felonies, and the supply will start to dry up.

      • Nephilium

        /looks at SugarFree’s Wednesday post

        Are you sure “dry up” is the turn of phrase you want to use?

      • Aloysious

        Wither away, like a Wicked Witch?

        Devolve to a puddle of sticky goo?

        Begin to resemble zherz spirit animal the Green Slime?

      • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

        This. Flood the zone with black SUVs, when they pull one of the roadblock tricks, pull them out, cuff them, arrest for interfering with a federal officer, and tow the car.

        Continue the deportations.

        (the point is cost: time, money, dignity.

      • EvilSheldon

        Or…beat them into a three week hospital stay. Certainly a bad look, but probably cheaper and more effective.

      • Nephilium

        EvilSheldon:

        Give them probation. Make them check in every week and piss in a cup. Shame them.

      • EvilSheldon

        Neph: That’s even better. For a lot of reasons.

      • Muzzled Woodchipper

        Agree. Unless there’s a legit assault, of which there have been many, shaming is as likely to be effective as beatings (for a variety of reasons) or jail.

        Of course these dumb cunts will likely wear it as a badge, Instagramming their piss tests.

        Some people are completely broken.

    • rhywun

      And so what?

      Of course, she and the many like her are radicals but more importantly they are being trained for some sort of lame-ass “insurrection” by a web of billionaire-funded NGOs.

      I would expect it to continue and probably get worse and more “serious” leading into summer. Buckle up.

    • JaimeRoberto (carnitas/spicy salsa)

      I’d say she qualified as a radical, but it’s over the top to call her a terrorist.

  5. Evan from Evansville

    Woah. Indeed good on, observant of Raptor. Either lurker or possibly someone we ‘know?’

    William Vanderhoop, a member of the Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head Aquinnah, has run Tomahawk Charters, a whale-watching and charter-fishing business for decades. In a statement announcing the lawsuit, Vanderloop said his business has also been devastated by the turbines.

    “The Biden Administration chose a big, foreign-owned wind company, Vineyard Wind, over local businessmen, hurt my business and jacked up our electric rates in the process, all in the name of a big green lie,” Vanderhoop said.

    Vanderhoop. That’s an interesting Indian name.

    • SarumanTheWoefullyIgnorant

      Dutch-Indian intermarriages during the colonial era were surprisingly common. In those days Albany was practically a frontier town and had a thriving trade going on with the Indians. Quite a few Iroquois have Dutch blood. I wasn’t aware they interbred with the Wampanoag, but them traders got around.

      If I’m drinking CVBC, it means I’m having a good day because it means I’m on vacation near the brewery.

      Surprised the beer made it all the way to your area.

      • DEG

        I got it on a road trip.

      • Ted S.

        Welcome back!

      • Toxteth O'Grady

    DHS has always been a bad idea, you stupid fucks.

    Yes, rather funny to read that in The Atlantic now.

    Nonpaywall

    • rhywun

      [it] has turned against Americans and been twisted into a trolling operation infused with white nationalism

      I selected all squares with motorcycles for this bullshit?

      Fuck off, The Atlantic.

  8. Aloysious

    So we had protests at the Capitol in Boise this morning. I hope that they were protesting the words ‘stagnant air’ used constantly by the modern weather services.

    • Spudalicious

      We did? Yeah, they better be protesting this fucking inversion.

    • Muzzled Woodchipper

      My huge beef with modern weather services was their switching out the scientific and mathematical term to describe temperature, “average”, and subbing in a personal judgment call and using “normal.”

      They’re telling you how much a temperature deviated from the average, by calling it normal.

      “Today’s high was 37 today, 3 degrees above normal.”

      Is so goddamn dishonest it makes me want to choke a bitch.

  9. rhywun

    Student/Refugee Horror House sounds like the new apartment building across the street from me I’ve mentioned a few times that’s about 2/3 working poor and 1/3 drug-dealing meth-heads they rounded up from the urban campground behind the WalMart.

  10. Rat on a train

    A judge has ruled federal agents can’t retaliate against peaceful protesters or stop people in their cars if they aren’t obstructing operations.
    ICE is finished.

    • Muzzled Woodchipper

      So the judge means to say that ICE can carry on doing exactly what it’s been doing?

      Because they haven’t been “retaliating” against peaceful protestors, if they even exist at this point, or stopping people who aren’t stopping them.

      There’s a very simple solution to the entire problem, but the sanctuary idiots won’t have any of it.

      It seems to me that it’s about time the Justice Dept brought these sanctuary state/city leaders to court and settle this shit once and for all. Mayors can’t just ignore federal law.

      • rhywun

        The sanctuary idiots want more violence in the hopes that public pressure will open the borders and flood the nation with more millions of illegals who can pump up Dem representation at census time like in the good old days.

        settle this shit once and for all

        Yes. We know the dirty tricks the Dems will stoop to in order to keep the game going. It’s gonna get much worse if they aren’t stopped soon.

  11. Muzzled Woodchipper

    How out of touch do you need to be to believe that AWFL is new, and how deluded to think it’s BECAUSE of the retard?

    The paper of record, my ass.

  12. EvilSheldon

    I like Blues Traveler. I especially like that time when John Popper got pulled over doing 110 in his G 63 AMG, with three ounces of Northern Lights and about a dozen top-shelf firearms (including one custom .50BMG) concealed in cargo area. Be like John Popper.

    • rhywun

      Not a fan-fan but I liked the big hit or two that were everywhere way back when and I liked his appearance on Roseanne.

    • The Other Kevin

      I think he was also stopped in an airport with a sword concealed in a cane. We need more interesting characters like that.

      I saw them a few times in the 90’s, great band.

    • Chafed

      I’m not a fan of his music but I a fan of his life choices.

    • Chafed

      That first one… Oof!
