Seen: A representation of the NFL yesterday.
Yesterday was some dreck NFL slop. The first slate of games shouldn’t have even been seen by prisoners. The next set didn’t do much either. Man, I hope tonight is entertaining. On the site front, I have enough material to get us up to Thanksgiving week, so keep those articles coming, please! Tonio is ready with the truncheon for a little of the old ultraviolence otherwise…
So that brings us to the links;
- Honey pot worked.
- Feeding the alligator.
- One note to this. He did not have far right affiliations, he appears to have been Antifa and rainbow-centric. That correction will either come days from now or never.
- No way! Way.
Music. (sorry, couldn’t resist a bit of an NFL thing).
Comments are open and all yours.
“That correction will either come days from now or never.”
Remarkable that this weirdo is on video killing a bunch of innocent people, and they still won’t say his last name.
Priorities, it would seem.
It’s pretty standard in Europe to use only the first name and last initial. I think it’s a way to preserve the presumption of innocence until proven guilty.
Reporting for Chinese honey pot duty, sir!

Gustave is an intriguing nom du comment for a Chinese hottie.
You misunderstand. I’m willing to take that 中国人 bullet for the rest of y’all.
Two Huangs don’t make it right.
Waited until a fresh thread.
Thanksgiving vacation postponed. I’m now going to my brother’s house, where all the dishes have already been assigned.
I get a complete wild card to bring whatever I want. Expectations are high. People are expecting meat from me, although I am considering a potato dish from Fallow.
Ideas?
I’m considering a Wagyu picanha with truffle. Yes, some people will complain that it’s too rare, but I’m not catering to the tastes of the ketchup and dino nuggets crowd.
Jojos and turkey tenders.
google is telling me that you made a highly regional comment
Jojo Dancers?
But did it give you a recipe?
I saw a menu with a decent looking but deceptively priced burger. 1/4lb burger TOTAL. Each patty is 2 oz. Lame.
He isn’t BBQing, teds
Pangolin chili.
Sounds like an INO triple.
Mix mashed plantain, wheat flour, egg, and turmeric. Pan fry in seed oil. Make sure it gets cold and greasy so they hate it.
This is one my husband likes for special occasion – I generally do variations of the peppercorn sauce (sometimes with brandy):
https://tomkerridge.com/recipes/onglet-steak-with-green-peppercorn-sauce/
Looks pretty close to the (alleged) L’Entrecôte recipe, which is one of my favorite steak recipes, although I’ve never had the real thing.
Do you generally find that freezing beef degrades the quality? I can find hanger in abundance here, but only frozen at Wild Fork (JBS retail outlet 1/2 mile away).
I’ve found hanger at a grocery store exactly once, and when I went back for more, they snarfed at me.
Currently, Black Angus Choice $17/lb, Wagyu $27/lb.
Outside skirt, another of my favorites, has somehow doubled in price in the last 6 months.
In this period of time you should be OK if you vac-pack and freeze right away (preferably in a freezer that isn’t frequently cycling).
To clarify, it comes frozen; I can’t find it fresh anywhere.
Just wondering if I’m missing out.
I would purchase frozen. Skirt (as you noted) and flank are options – I typically use a NY Strip b/c always nice and tender and has the fat for those who like it.
Standing rib roast with the fancy hats
Thousand layer potatoes
Hari Covert (Haricots Verts) Green Beans
Haven’t had prime rib since Father’s Day, but I’m too nervous to try and pull it off on thanksgiving.
No matter how good your cooking technique is, you don’t know if you’ve gotten a bad cut until you slice it open, which seems to happen almost 25% of the time. Just a massive seam of sinew and gristle right down the middle of the roast.
Hmmm… I might give it a shot this week, though.

And they’re correct. But the companies are also Swiss, so they’ll still run with the precision of a Glashütte or an A. Lange & Söhne.
They’ll be fine — just you watch.
At last, somebody who knows a bit about watchmakers.
I stopped in an A. Lange & Söhne boutique in Paris when I was there in September.
Objects of desire but I’d be beside myself if it got stolen or broken and would be unlikely to replace it. So less expensive watches it will remain.
(surprisingly few on display – I think they just pull them out as you talk to them)
Surprisingly common in major cities with lots of vibrancy. Ring a doorbell to get in, double doors with bullet-resistant glass, security guard keeping a very close eye on things while you talk with the clerk.
Even in Reykjavik, where the diversity are northern Italian or Polish, we had to endure this setup. All I wanted was a unique, inexpensive yet rugged work watch. Alas, the company doesn’t make them anymore.
They are still wound up, however.
Free trade Democrats!
Democrats have made no secret of their plans to bombard Trump and his associates with investigations as soon as the next Congress is sworn in. They are also preparing a first-100-hours legislative blitz, putting forward a series of bills that would unwind much of Trump’s agenda.
Both prongs of attack will take aim at Trump’s unprecedented use of tariffs, which Democrats have quickly identified as a main target following their landslide victory in Tuesday’s midterm elections.
Ending Trump’s tariff regime, and especially his trade war against Canada, is something Democrats “absolutely have to do immediately,” Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed, D-Mich., told MS NOW’s “Morning Joe” Thursday.
Open the borders.
Shoot to kill. Let God sort them out.
Heads on the border wall.
That’ll be a wasted 100 hours, unless Trump TACOs and signs whatever they send him. Which, after his “Ima giving up on immigration” comments, wouldn’t surprise me.
I’m not sure what you expected him to say. “Hell no, I’ll never work with those people” just makes him look crazed. He said he’s willing to make a deal. That’s like saying you’re open to discussions, even if you know there’s no way in hell you’ll ever agree to what the other side is likely to offer.
He’s right that they did a terrible job of messaging on immigration. There was very little positive. ICE was made to look like the Gestapo. Sorting out that many illegal immigrants was going to require some harsh measures and the public thinks everything can be done without anybody being hurt or upset. They needed a great PR strategy and they blew it.
They didn’t communicate well regarding the Iran war. I don’t know if it was necessary or not; they seem to feel that it absolutely was but they didn’t get that message out. It also didn’t look like they had their strategy together early on and it’s hard to dig out of that hole. I think they figured the public would get behind them since nobody likes Iran, but America at this point is sick to death of being in the Middle East and even the Republican base wasn’t convinced.
Not really sure what he’s supposed to do at this point other than manage a hostile situation. He’s looking at a Congress that’s going to be completely stacked against his administration. The current Congress has done little to advance his agenda despite having Republican majorities in both houses. Sure, they passed the Big Beautiful Bill, but that wasn’t really going to deliver any lasting gains to fire up the base. They’re hopelessly bogged down on all of the current priorities. He’s going to have a hard time getting anything done in the next two years unless he does at least some compromising.
ContraP is right. You play the hand you are delt, and you need to know how to call, raise, and work the other players. This admin did shitall in the way of working things. They knew they were not going to get a fair pass in the media, they knew everything they did would be made to look bad, and then they leaned into it. Stupid.
And as far as RINOs go, of course they are going to be hard to corral, they have constituents to worry about, and if they are an R in a left leaning area, they are gonna be that way. Dealing with them is called politics. Used to be the same on the D side, but the blood bath in ’10 wiped those out, just like this wave did. And so it goes.
I still see people claiming Kirk got shot by a far-right MAGA, so my money’s on never.
Regarding yesterday’s football:
https://x.com/TylerDBrooke/status/2119817324920230215
I stopped watching years ago when I could not recognize whatever fucking game they are playing cause it ain’t football anymore.
Well, the QB did stomp his foot, pull out his handkerchief from his sleeve and throw it on the ground. That right there is a roughing indicator. Good call, Ref.
they still won’t say his last name.
Something something ongoing investigation.
That, of course, does not preclude speculation about the far right demonology of his motives.

Where does a complete 100% newb go to watch decent games with at least semi-informative commentary?

I have notes for a couple articles. I just need to get off my ass and write them. Though I guess when it comes to writing I’m typically on my ass.
Potentially adverse
The Food and Drug Administration said Monday that GLP-1 drugmakers must add a warning label about a rare eye condition that can cause sudden blindness.
The condition, called nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, or NAION, affects the optic nerve, which carries signals from the eye to the brain. When blood flow to the nerve is reduced or blocked, it can cause sudden vision loss. The condition is permanent with no known treatment.
The FDA said “there is a potential increased risk of rare NAION” in people taking GLP-1 drugs.
That’s interesting.
What’s the mechanism by which the drug interrupts that blood flow?
They don’t know. All they have are data that shows an incidence in the patient population of roughly 2x the general population, which is enough to require a warning.
Doesn’t significantly change the risk/benefit profile.
My late wife lost vision in her right eye from that. Stress induced.
It is possible we’ll find out next week if Lyndsay Clancy gets retried.
For some reason I thought this was a Bee article and Lindsey Grahms upcoming retirement.
To those of you who think you’re past your prime, there’s always hope.

Magical magnet
Erin Sullivan had only visited New York City once before she decided to take a job in the Big Apple.
But that visit made a strong impression: “Having the freedom of just hopping on the subway and getting anywhere was so magical for me,” she says. “I knew that I wanted to end back up” in the city.
After graduating from the University of Oklahoma in 2023 with a computer science degree, Sullivan, 25, landed a role as a software engineer at Bank of America in New York City.
She’s part of a growing contingent of tech workers who are drawn to the city.
Crowded, noisy, dirty, expensive, It’s got everything.
It’s no mystery why workers are drawn to New York City, according to Corrinet: “Everything’s here, and it’s just such a rich and engaging place for people to live.”
But New York’s high cost of living can pose a challenge even for tech workers “who make six figures right out of college,” according to Samuels. On the other hand, there are valid concerns that an influx of highly paid tech workers could worsen the affordability crisis for other New Yorkers, she says.
Her goal is to ensure that New York’s growing tech presence benefits all New Yorkers, not just those who work in the industry.
Fuck off, slaver,
Get a roommate.
It’s amazing how the answer to so many cost of living issues are get and job and get a roommate.

Mass hysteria event
A “Call of Duty” gamer’s FaceTime conversation overheard on a plane at the Inland Empire’s Ontario International Airport led to evacuations and a detainment on Sunday night, according to police.
Sometime before 10 p.m., the Ontario Police Department said a passenger aboard a Frontier Airlines flight waiting to depart heard someone say the words “bomb” and “explosion” and reported what they heard to the crew.
Evacuations then ensued, including the plane and the east wing of Terminal 2 inside the airport.
A person was detained as a result of the incident. While detained, the individual explained he was on FaceTime with a friend while playing an online game of “Call of Duty.”
The top-selling video game franchise simulates war with realistic-sounding gunfire and explosions. While playing it, the passenger told police that the words “bomb” and “explosion” were used to describe his gameplay.
Crews conducting the sweep of the plane found no bomb or explosive device aboard and deemed that no crime was committed.
See something, say something.
FFS.
We somehow won Dubya Dubya Dos in a previous timeline.

Last chance to throw a tantrum
“Wherefore, Secretary of Defense Peter Hegseth, by such conduct, has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to the Constitution if allowed to remain in office, and has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with his duties and the rule of law,” the articles, which Massie read from the House floor, read. “Peter Brian Hegseth thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States.”
The extrajudicial killings deserve a serious hearing. The rest of it is just kicking and screaming, as far as I can tell.
this, but it does show how much of a little bitch Massie has become
This is why Massie is gone. Nobody gives a damn about blowing up drug boats. It’s a losing issue except to hard core international law types. He knows damn well nobody is going for this.
He went hard on Epstein too. None of the voters gave a damn. They want lower prices, economic stability, no wars, and jobs. You’ve got to pick your fights in politics and he decided to die on a hill that both parties really want to forget.
Remember when he was a bulwark to Obama and Biden and had principled push back against Trump 1.0? Ya…then he just lost the plot and blamed the Jews
Racial gestures?
Is it just me or is Swiss flag face paint guy giving a sultry look from the shadows? Like the ally he’s coming out from is a special place.
The World Can’t Get Enough Anime. Can Japan Cash In on Its Success?
Sony is building an anime empire, betting that global fandom can fuel growth for both the company and the country as foreign rivals and A.I. swarm the scene.

In no small part because it’s not as woke as domestic content. But never fear they can change that! I don’t watch dubs, but from my reading lots of the English dubs are certainly done with keeping that in mind. However, in conversations and from my reading Japan is getting increasingly more woke as well, but decades behind the West.
Ive noticed a lot of alphabet stuff in manga in recent years.
Yes. Plastic bag bans, too. ☹️

Jersey’s governor, Mikie, just named a black woman to the vacant Lt.Gov. position. Said black woman vowed to help Gov. Mikie implement “the black agenda.” Imagine a white politician saying he or she would advance a “white agenda.”
But this racism is fine.And Mikie is a helicopter pilot!
see! now we have proof of the black helicopters!

I wish when they named Jensen Huang’s fling they couched it with “Alice Huang, no relation, to our knowledge”.
What is the German word again? Schadenfreude? My stepson was crowing last week about the Blue Wave. Today, he read some article about Dems possibly removing the Social Security and Medicare wage caps. With he and wife earning about $500,000 a year, he suddenly realizes his taxes are going to soar! Wait until they open their 401ks after Bernie and Fauxcahontas and friends wreck the economy.
