In case you are not terminally online, this is the reference point for the last post:
Can this be anything but a sexual fantasy? I actually enjoy this level of self-reporting through unhinged rant.
This is one of the dumbest fucking slogans imaginable. What does it even mean? Aren’t <em>Gazans</em> supposed to be living in Gaza? Or if she supports Palestinian wiping-out Israel, then should it be “A Jew-Free Israel Is Our Home?” Which still has nothing to do with this dry cat-lady unless she is saying she is going to live in the terrorist state of Greater Palestine, and, well, that’s going to be a real eye-opener for her, I bet.
She is the best possible example of why we should defund NPR forever.
I don’t care how long ago it was or how far away… Han Solo punching a giant otter is America. This is what we are all about.
You want more America? Here you go:
DIO!
Early Dio.
On the social media, I’m noticing something any time there’s a post on Greenland. You have a bunch of prog bots come in talking about how great the welfare they supposedly get from Denmark is. Which is obviously why the average Greenlander is poorer than the poorest American state.
Ain’t much to spend money on, except winter clothes. OTOH they all seem to speak English, something that not everyone in the US does.
That’s vast swaths of Europe as a whole, including the UK. Spain, Portugal, Greece, and several others, I’m sure, all are poorer than our poorest state. Yet they still fear being called a racist even more than the quickening breakdown of their standard of living and way of life.
When I was in the Army there was a hot bartender I was into who used to flirt with me. I brought my dipshit NCO in with me and he proceeded to ask her if she wanted to see a picture of his kid. It was a picture of that bum who had his face gnawed off by the guy high on some form of bath salts.
She ran into the backroom of the bar crying. Best wingman ever.
I had an artist friend who would go around and ask people if they wanted to see her pride and joy, and then she’d show them this photo.

We did not hang out with the same crowd.
There was a senile old guy in my neighborhood who did the exact same thing.
I asked my wife “What’s the ZIP code for Gaza, I need it for the return home address”
She has the mental health people on speed dial.
I work with pretty much all NPR ladies and it is fucking exhausting. I’ve trained them not to try and talk to me about politics.
It’s the “we’re all ______ now” performance that is so common when someone is trying to show how much they care.
It doesn’t have to make any sense or imply that the person employing it has the slightest clue of what ______ is actually all about.
rhywun:
It also enforces the collectivist mindset. “We’re All %Current Thing%”
“I’m not.”
*Invasion of the Body Snatchers point and yell*
She’s also pulling for the Head Mistress McGonagall look, cuz fuck it. Why not?
I know where you work.
All NPR ladies. All. Of. Them.
Why are their hands lathered in blood? Blood is a terrible lubricant, especially for fisting…
There are weirder fetishes.
Go on…
Washing his hands would ruin the vibe she has going.
She’s been relying on MS CoPilate too much for her speech writing.
The things one learns on here, and the things behind the things one learns…
“Behind.”
*insert Beavis and Butt-Head laugh*
How about tears?
More of an aphrodisiac than a lubricant.
Can this be anything but a sexual fantasy?
“Hey, this ditch is full of dead people. I am so incredibly horny right now.”
I may be crazy, but not that crazy:
https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/judge-restraining-order-tro-minnesota-ice-operations/
Minnesota judge won’t issue restraining order to stop ICE operations in state, for now
And they’d fucking laugh his ass out of court if he tried. He has no authority to order fedgov to stop anything.
Call out the National Guard!
Bug girl’s real name Sophia?
No, I just didn’t want to call her bug girl and get into Kafka territory.
That otter adds a new meaning to ring-tailed.
I assume the rings are magical and increase his otter powers. +5 attack on mussels, for example.
Is that actually an otter? Looks more like a mink, which are fierce.
Is there a lot of face eating going on by non-bathsalt-zombies that I’m unaware of?
It’s one of their favorite metaphors. It derives from their strained and unfunny meme attempt about supposed people who vote for the Leopards Eating Off Faces party, and then allegedly being surprised when their faces get…
IOW, it’s a reworking of false consciousness.
*insert “It’s all so tiresome” clip here*
(has anyone watched all of “Empire of Dust”? If so, worth it?)
Jeez, I’d almost forgotten that bit of historical progjection…
The girl behind NPR Lady is checking the script to see which chant comes next.
Re: “Gaza is our home” — Jamie Lee Curtis has really let herself go…
Yeah, if she were “home” in Gaza she wouldn’t be showing her hair, the slut. LOL
I don’t care how long ago it was or how far away… Han Solo punching a giant otter is America. This is what we are all about.
It almost looks like it could be a Conan cover.
Conan the Veterinarian?
Conina just wanted to be a hairdresser.
That would be a great paperback cover.
Joe Jusko, who did both Conan and Edgar Rice Burroughs cover art. Still working. Has done a lot of comics covers as well.
One of his Conan covers.
That Poor Horse!
😱
Did Joe Jusko do any of the cover art for the Chronicles of Gor novels?
None are listed on his isfdb page: https://isfdb.org/cgi-bin/ch.cgi?79513=
Poor horse? There’s also a corpse raging an impressive boner. Only discovered after basking in Conan’s babe. I was looking around to see if she was safe, but, well. Conan. Find fun where ya can, I s’pose. *kicks corpse-cock*
Damn, how did I not know about ISFDB before now?
Evan – that’s a foot.
I don’t know, that site looks like it’s stright out of the late 90s.
I hate it when I’m right.
@UCS: No, you’re afoot!.. with your typical shenanigans. And the babe’s dazzling blue is awfully distracting.
America, who needs it?
Dewey Bunnell?
The horses name was Frank,
I remember that episode. Solo received quite a stoat thrashing.
Boo. Boo this man.
Nay nay. He otter get a medal.
Leave it to RJ to ferret it out.
15 yard penalty for badgering Shpip.
We mustalid on this right now, lest Swiss und-ermine us with his baleful look.
Lately on Instagram, I’m seeing a lot of “suggested” posts with photos of mid women, but they somehow have 200k followers. What is happening?
Begun the bot wars have.
So it’s just a bunch of people in China with 100 phones in front of them?
TOK:
People? Why would people need to be involved?
Lead generator for your gym?
AI generated women with AI generated followers going for the AI generated big bucks.
If these were AI generated I’d demand my money back. I generally don’t use the word mid, but these are just ok-looking women. Maybe there is a service out there to generate x number of followers, with the hopes that seeming popular will get them more attention.
Take your pick of almost 2,000.

They look like cartoon characters. How am I supposed to masturbate to that?
Close your eyes and think of Smurfette?
This pretty much sums up all of social media now.
See in a non-union job when you insult a guest of your employer you get fired.
If you are union you are a martyr and a hero.
A Ford worker called out Trump. The president flipped him off. Now, he’s been suspended.
I don’t care what you do, if you break decorum in the shop you are fired. The guy was a self-identifying idiot. Let him go find a job with the poison-frog-hair crowd.
Exactly. Do that shit on your own time.
I guess that is supposed to be a reference to the Epstein files that Uncle Joe and the Dems sat on for years?
Do better with your insults, the left.
Thank you Guardian for meeting expectations.
That’s some ZeroHedge level predicting.
I wouldn’t have a problem with some level of funding if it was done right but as it stands right now it’s largely a racket.
See prior post and my SF, CA racket.
I feel bad for the 23 people this would have helped.
Don’t feel bad for the administrators.
After some research, I got a Lenovo Chromebook Plus to replace the Windows 11 thingy I got a few months ago. That thing sucked. Just, all of it. It was fiendishly slow, despite being newer and with better or the same memory and processing stats. Yeek. Like TVs, it continues to amaze me how cheap and good computers and tech in general has gotten.
Had to convince myself to get it, cuz the WIndows shitbag still *worked,* but fuck, stupid not to. Reminds me of McNulty about something or other. “I’m Irish. We can put up with anything.”
Of more importance to me, I took Singing Lesson #2 w Mom, a very good choral singer and singer- musician in her own projects. She went back ‘n forth seeing where my most comfy range is, and she thinks I’m more bass than baritone. Interesting how that ‘works,’ with me at 5’6″, ~135lb.
Great family project, purposefully done when Dad was napping, cuz last time he got ‘snapped at’ by Mom when he “jokingly” joined a long for a bit. Speaking of, finishing a story for y’all about the sitcom I live in with the two of them.
Mrs. TOK and I were in a church choir for a few years. The choir leader was an old guy who taught music at the local high school, and had sung in a choir with Mrs. TOK’s grandfather (who had passed away decades earlier). It was a lot of fun. I too was a bass (5’1″, 135#). I couldn’t hit the right pitch on my own, but the WWII veteran next to me had great pitch and if I followed him I did fine.
Every once in a while we’ll hear one of the songs we did at Christmas, and we’ll sing our parts.
And it took him about 2 minutes to determine my part. I was observing choir practice one day, and he told me to come over to the piano. “Sing this note. Now this one. Now this one. Ok you’re a bass.”
It’s a talent I know I have and have stupidly ‘ignored’ cuz I have a pretty typical ‘fear’ of it or, rather, doing it in public. Seems dumb and stupid to hang on to that, when, rather, I could get free lessons from her.
Also in my mind, it’s an opportunity for Mother+Son time we don’t take enough advantage of. Actual discussion with Dad is.. not stimulating. Mom and I are fine, but we all follow the No Politics rule.
Sucking up
Fintech giant Bilt announced an overhaul of its credit cards on Wednesday, which notably will include an introductory rate on all card users’ interest rates at 10% for one year.
The promotion comes at a time of heightened political rhetoric around the cost of credit cards, with President Donald Trump announcing last week that he also is seeking a one-year cap on credit card interest rates of 10%.
Never heard of them.
Very east coasty. They also got in trouble with their rent rewards.
Bilt Rewards is a payments and commerce network that is known for its rent-focused credit offerings.[1] Founded by Ankur Jain in 2019 and headquartered in New York City,[2][3] the company offers point-based rewards on rent payments, amongst other purchases.[3] The card is issued through Wells Fargo.[4]

SLD (though I’m not sure I really identify as libertarian anymore), but I could fucking use a 1 year reprieve in interest rates. When inflation took hold, we got in a bad spiral just to keep up with our lives. I’d love a year’s break just to get that back in check. Unfortunately I’ll likely have to dig into my IRA and pay the penalty to get things under control. We started converting IRA funds to a Roth IRA, but the minimum 5 years hasn’t passed, and isn’t close enough to be able to wait.
Same here. Opening a business during the Biden admin was brutal. Doing much better now, but it will be a while before our personal finances are “good”.
Single Glibs, I believe we’ve found ourselves a keeper!
She’s like Sigourney Weaver in Aliens, if Ripley just drove past the xenomorphs yelling insults at them for TikTok clout.
The soft, quiet wisdom of “find ’em, fuck ’em, forget ’em” speaks to me.
It’s not the “speaking her mind” I’d be afraid of. It’s all of the actually crazy shit this woman so obviously believes. Like the idea that 40-something cat ladies will be the saviors of “ICE “occupied” America.
Bitch. Shut. The. Fuck. Up. You’re a goddamn piss ant. If ICE were what you claim it is, all of you stupid fuckers would be mowed down in the street. She’ll be lucky if she doesn’t slip a hip or tweak her back.
She wants an “anarchist”. I don’t think she’s really thought this through too much.
Then again, I don’t think she’s really thought much.
She says she a “relationship anarchist.” I’m not sure of the precise definition of relationship anarchism, but I think I’ve experienced it.
Someone linked to an article about how the AWFLs in particular feel like their especially entitled to be taken seriously and given *full* deference, like doctors arriving to save a dying child.
I link this with Participation Trophy Culture, though more recent than her menopausal grays. (Tech makes culture accelerate, and implode(?), quicker than before.) Without actual individual struggles and accomplishments, people are much more eager to latch on to the ‘Group Accomplishment’ that they desperately want to be a part of.
Now they’ve picked their team and stewed in it for decades, they’re far too chickenshit, and actually *have* no actual skills that’d actually ‘help’ The Cause, their Must Do Somethingism kicks in. Screaming and shouting, and blocking traffic, seem to be hot, these days. That’s been rewarded with praise and now, with martyrdom! What a way to contribute!
When that girl says, “Let’s go fuck some shit up” I hear Billy Bob Thornton saying “You won’t shit right for a week.”
[insert shrug emoji]
“Going door to door and kidnapping people from their homes.”
You betcha.
Germany joins European partners with troop deployment to Greenland
They should send at least a brigade.
They don’t have a brigade, those 13 are the bulk of their land forces.
I thought that was Larry David simping for some more of that Palestinian chicken.
