Damn, dude. Keep it professional. Weird that he did the SIL fetish thing but waited until the organization hired her to do it. But I suppose it’s wrong to kink shame. And across the pond, a soccer game turned into a circus. No idea what happened, but a few players seem to have developed some after the fact hearing, because they didn’t even react when the incident occurred, aside from Vini, Jr. But they sure had things to say later. I’m skeptical. But then again, I’m always skeptical. And that’s pretty much it for sports.
“We have no idea how this happened!” If I knew how to put pics inside the piece, this is where I’d post the “You shouldn’t have been talking shit” Katt Williams meme.
Talk about burying the lede. But it’s to be expected nowadays, I suppose.
This judge is a fool. He should have stopped it before they even started the proceedings. I can only hope the contempt hearing is less of a circus than jury selection apparently was.
You get what you deserve. Anybody feigning surprise who voted for this guy should be put in stocks and have rotten fruit thrown at them. But after Ramadan ends, so as to not offend the non-eating guy in Gracie Mansion.
Canada should be burned to the ground. I’m not sure about salting the ashes. At least not a few of the prairie provinces that have decent cropland and oil.
I wonder if this will catch on. They’ll have to find a way to tie it to communism for it to become mainstream with their side, so probably not.
Somebody needs to stop these political assclowns. Covid and the flu have no business being on this list.
Let’s wait for the follow up. Expect there to be one, if he’s from the right. And expect there to not be one if he’s a leftist.
Gavin knows how to pick em. I won’t make a “politically illiterate” joke here because I don’t want to be accused of anti-dyslexic bigotry.
I’ll post this without my own commentary. I’ll give my thoughts in the comments, but I want to see yours first.
Here’s some good shit. What a great band. And what a difference four years makes. An interesting transformation in style. And I think they did great. Enjoy them both.
And enjoy this lovely Wednesday, dear friends.
Who reenabled the suck factor?
We too shall overcome
I blame Tosu. :-p
Nobody, AFAIK. I tried deactivating all plugins just now and that didn’t fix things. That’s the only thing I know how to do to try to fix this. I have reported this to WebDom, but it may take her awhile to get to this.
Thank you for your efforts, Tonio.

I’ve got no idea. But it works better on a phone than a desktop. At least with the phone you can see the article below all the other stuff.
For any who don’t already know – I find if you “unmaximize” a desktop/laptop browser window and narrow it until the topics dropdown list no longer overlaps the text, the post is readable.
That fix only sorta kinda works, because I don’t have my windows maximized, but the topics didn’t disappear until I narrowed this window to half the size of a regular window, which makes it read worse than a phone screen
Desktops.
You guys are old.
Narrow your desktop browser window and it’s useable. Below 980px for me.
The dedication is admirable
Slumbrew is correct.
I just submitted the GlibFlicks for the week and the preview looked completely normal. I take this as a good sign.
Thank you!
Good news everyone, a lessor member of the Nazgul has rightly told a man to GTFO on trying to sue B-Dubs over boneless ‘chicken wings’. However, the fact the case went so far and not denied from the onset, is par for the course
I would not have ordered these if I knew they weren’t really buffalo wings.
*Goes to Panda Garden, has a sad*

I can guarantee you if any such thing happened there were similar insults hurled from all sides and in multiple languages but of course only certain of them get to complain about it. This character and one or two of the white knights (lol) mentioned in the article are already well-known for pulling this routine.
It certainly seems like the UHers are engaging in creative sentence-by-sentence redefinition of terms.
They looked at themselves and judged them to be faultless.

Which is fine as far as it goes. Choose your pediatrician accordingly.
Unfortunately, I suspect these same asshats would be at the front of the line to remove licensure from – at the very least, more likely actually support criminal prosecution of – pediatricians who don’t follow CDC guidelines once their particular brand of Mengele is back in charge.

At this writing, only two potential candidates have double-digit support in the RealClearPolitics polling average. Both are vulnerable.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris leads with 31%, followed by California Gov. Gavin Newsom at 22%. From there, the drop-off is steep. Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is in third place with 9%. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is close on Mr. Buttigieg’s heels. The only other Democrat to earn more than 5% in national polls is Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro.
Got TedS, Rhywun, UnCiv:
Gun club shitweasels. NY Coworkers when lying (which doesn’t happen often) lie within salesweasel parameters, which is to say not directly in the face of direct question.
The South, Japan, and the UK* all have “polite” ways of lying that specifically communicates the actual meaning of the communication so that the person being “lied” to knows the actual truth. Lying to actually deceive (as opposed to lying so that everyone saves face and social harmony is preserved) is a BIG no-no where I come from because of this practice.
There’s been a string of deceptions towards me that has got me enraged but I don’t know if I should have known what they were saying earlier and that the hatred I have for these people is not actually justified. ‘Cause at this point I’m at the “watch them die instead of administering first aid” level towards them.
The story:
Two of us were in charge of running a group activity with a minor gaggle of regular helpers. One of the helper’s boyfriend picks a fight with me. I webuff him wather wudely. Helper has a tantrum/meltdown and quits.
Guy who is running the activity also quits, saying he no longer has time (his girlfriend/common-law wife had a stroke two years ago and he’s her primary caregiver).
I find a guy to take Guy #1’s place. Because this season involves me being away at least five weekends, I make him the Guy In Charge.
My credentials to the piece of software that the club uses to communicate/register participants get yoinked. This software is used for multiple club activities, not just this particular one which results in my last question before communication ceases. This happened the last time the helper chick quit (yeah, I know now I shouldn’t have let her back) but they were restored by Guy #1. This time Guy #1 has (supposedly) quit. I ask Guy in Charge to restore my credentials. He gives me the following excuse:
“I don’t know how”
Then I find out that Guy #1 and helper chick have unquit and are working with Guy In Charge. So I ask Guy in Charge to have Guy #1 restore my credentials and I get the folliowng response:
“He can’t”
Then I mention that he not only can, but has demonstrated that he can and the response becomes:
“We voted. I really wanted to restore them, but got outvoted sorry.”
I ask if they’re going to be changing the locks on our shared storage areas and he goes radio silent.
*The UK also has the counter to this with pseudo-polite acts used to clearly communicate insult while shielding the insulter from blowback. AFAIK, neither Japan nor The South have this feature.
No, there is no “I’m lying, but the truth is” communication mode in New York English.
There is no way I’m signing up for Gravatar.
I would have to agree with this sentiment.
That said, it has always been pretty obvious to me what “kind” of lie is being presented. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That’s all wonderfully petty.
There has to be a board of some kind here and a treasurer who pays the software bill.
That’s my thought. If you’re the leader designated by the club board, you should check with the board to see who authorized your effective dismissal. If not, well, there’s not much you can do but go Galt.
One of the helper’s boyfriend picks a fight with me. I webuff him wather wudely.
The boyfriend is Elmer Fudd?
I was channeling my inner Pontius Pilate in honor of Ash Wednesday.
Sorry to hear that, NA. I feel your pain. There is nothing worse than having a hobby/volunteer gig that is a big part of your life suddenly go to shit.
I am trying to determine if it’s me as the outsider that’s violating the local norms*. If as Rhywun says it only takes normal social awareness to judge intent, then these lying shitweasels are the same kind of xenophobic assholes that they appear to be.
*The last time I was in England, my friends and I were subject to what seemed to be extremely rude behavior. However, in (almost?) all of those cases we were the ones who initiated it (by not having exact change ready when walking onto the bus, that sort of thing) and when we made an apology they backed waaaay down on the aggression level and accepted the apology.

Only certain “difficult” topics, and only in certain directions.
Generally Id say the State can get their nose out of the college and let the market of ideas dictate discourse, but this doesn’t seem unreasonable given how those who exhibit wrongthink against professors are treated.
The Avatar thing really throws me. The pictures were a quick way to figure out who was saying what. Now everyone has a different “Face” so to speak, and I have to double-check the name, since everyone changed.
I like my new avatar. It’s sufficiently Putrid.
At least you dont look like a stripper in yours
Reading is hard.
Yes, yes it is.
Not gonna lie, Rhywun’s gravitar does NOT match him. Your winking crab is act not anti-you, it at least conveys mischief.
Being a square tomato is undignified. I simply don’t feel saucy.
lol What a piece of shit. He will now conveniently blame someone else for all of the ruin he is about to cause.
But hey, those rolling homeless shelters won’t pay for themselves. Tough decisions have to be made.
There’s actually a clause somewhere that gives the Governor the authority to declare the NYC Mayor incompetent and remove him.
It won’t happen, but it’d be funny if it did.
Who gets to declare the Governor incompetent (other than an ineffectual minority of the voters?)
I don’t know, maybe impeachment by the legislature?
Wonder if this will catch on
Don’t know, but even if it does, I will predict that it will not ‘move the needle on global warming’ even a tiny little bit because we are noise on the thermal evolution of the earth-sun system.
Local NPR ran a story about the last (AFAIK) tranny shooting. They used masculine pronouns, never mentioned his transness once. The closest they came was a single line in which they said “who also went by Roberta…” He “also went by.” Not “She identified as,” or “had transitioned to,” but phrased it as if it were an alias that was occasionally used.
They did mention that the ice rink victims were his ex-wife, who divorced him when he transitioned and his son (who didn’t want two moms).
Sister-in-law? Brother’s wife or wife’s sister? There is a distinction in my head for some reason.
There is a distinction for blood related spouses that is almost universally ignored.
At this point it’s almost common usage to use “in-law”.
I can remember when Tony Clark played for the Tigers at old Tiger Stadium. Stadiums built in the early 1900s had dugouts not designed for 6’7″ dudes.
https://mlblogssnaggingbaseballs.wordpress.com/2013/01/16/71098-at-tiger-stadium/
You have to scroll down a bit but there’s a picture of #17 by the dugout. He always seemed like a classy guy. Maybe he has a classy relationship with SIL.
It worked for Marty Brodeur.
Not only was the shotgun dude wearing a tactical vest, he was wearing TACTICAL GLOVES!
The story claimed he also had an actual Kevlar(tm) helmet, but left it behind in his Mercedes SUV.
I thought only UCS wore tactical gloves.
Mercedes SUV: Lefty libtard confirmed.
Yep, Mercedes SUV is going to be AWFL or libtard male or a cuck who borrowed his AWFL’s ride because his Nissan Leaf couldn’t make it that far.
My wife’s car was totalled last week. Test drive a Mercedes GLA last night. She did not like, despite owning the Infiniti clone for the past 8 years. The Infiniti seats were much softer.

I was originally shocked. That AP article is titled The Clown that wouldn’t go away and had a picture of St. Barack and his family, but of course that photo was a teaser and the article was about Trump.

Jury nullification is valid but must be used with principle IMO. We all know if it were Rittenhouse in 2026 these leftists wouldnt dare think it was overreach and ‘resisting’ tyranny.

How to Make a Movie That’s Actually Romantic
‘Pillion’ is often scandalous, but it also offers classic rom-com warm and fuzzy feelings.
When I used to ride we referred to “pillion” as something slightly different.
https://www.wsj.com/arts-culture/film/pillion-movie-romance-interview-832f7e84?st=59KLRo&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink
Reading the beginning of that, I think your alternate term would be totally apt.
Did you have one of those shirts that said on the back: “If you can read this, the bitch fell off.”?
I had a Japanese bike. We didn’t do those things…
I didn’t know what pillion was so I googled it.
Found this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillion_(film)
Read the plot of the worst movie I had never heard of.
Awww BDSM luv
Definitely awards show bait.
Hard pass
That’s the movie the WSJ is reviewing.
I assume the pitch was, “Like ‘Secretary’ but totally gay.”
Never seen Secretary, just read the plot summary of it.
Also sounds awful, but I think you’re right with the Pillion comparison.
‘Secretary’ is actually pretty good.
I’ll take your word on that, definitely not for me.
Secretary is good.
Weird but good.

Good thing I already have the rugers that I want.

I find the RXM intriguing.
Yeah, if I had sufficient money I’d pick up a GP100, an Alaskan in .454 Casull, and a pair of Vaqueros at the very least
If it means the Benelli M4 becomes cheaper, I’m all for it.
I also imagine some of the nice, but too expensive options (like the new Cheetah) could be made in AZ for less.
Finally, if you’re a gun manufacturer and you’re NOT trying to increase your presence in the US market, you’re insane.
It’s cheaper in construction, but more expensive in price.
If you ever get a chance to visit the Beretta factory in Brescia, do it.
TIL that the ‘980px’ magic number is the threshold many website themes use to switch from multi-column (desktop) to single-column (mobile) layout.

Huh. Even at 1900+ pixels wide on Safari/macOS I get the usual single column.

Consciences were shocked
Millions of files related to the convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein suggest the existence of a “global criminal enterprise” that carried out acts meeting the legal threshold of crimes against humanity, a panel of independent experts appointed by the United Nations human rights council has said.
The experts said crimes outlined in documents released by the US justice department were committed against a backdrop of supremacist beliefs, racism, corruption and extreme misogyny. The crimes, they said, showed a commodification and dehumanisation of women and girls.
“So grave is the scale, nature, systematic character, and transnational reach of these atrocities against women and girls, that a number of them may reasonably meet the legal threshold of crimes against humanity,” they said in a statement.
United Nations sliding scale morality strikes again.
Was he actually convicted of child sex offenses?
The 2026 Jeep Wrangler Willys 392 will go on sale in March starting at $71,990 (including $1,995 for destination).

“In filing this litigation, we are taking a stand for the soul of our national parks,” said a written statement from Alan Spears, senior director for cultural resources at the National Parks Conservation Association, one of the groups that sued.
“Censoring science and erasing America’s history at national parks are direct threats to everything these amazing places, and our country, stand for,” Spears added.

The suit was filed by the National Parks Conservation Association, American Association for State and Local History, the Association of National Park Rangers, the Coalition to Protect America’s National Parks, the Society for Experiential Graphic Design and the Union of Concerned Scientists.

Oh yeah, the unread count is still sometimes persisting even when it shouldn’t.
Ah, it’s acting like ‘Unread comments persist’ is always on – you gotta manually hit the ‘R’ button to mark them as read.
I can fix that…
4.5.1 pushed, which should have normal behavior – new comments counter reset on page load (unless ‘unread comments persist’ is set).
Rhy, the CSS I added is
.new-comment .comment_area {background-color: #e0f2ff}
so feel to override (and/or suggest better classes/colors)
cool, I will make an update in my CSS
no my colors and fonts are greatly customized, I don’t want open up that can of worms
Thanks!
COnfirmed. Thx!
Hm, on Safari it’s giving me perma-sidebar.
I did have one small customization in the js (to add a keyboard shortcut to the Next Unread Comment button) but nothing to affect the sidebar that I recall.
OK the sidebar must be WebDom monkeying around again.
Never a dull moment! 🎉
Seems to be working.
Some clashing colors but that’s on my CSS customizations I bet
Thanks, Slumbrew!
I can’t get 4.5.1 to work. 4.5.0 does though.

No Win10, but 4.5.1 seems OK with Firefox 147.0.2 & Greasemonkey 4.13 (as well as VIolentmonkey).

It’s no Rubicon, but the Willys 392 will still come with everything you need to make loud noises in remote locations. The locking rear differential, Dana 44 front and rear axles and 4.56:1 axle ratio are standard, as is a set of 35-inch BF Goodrich KO2s. You even get the trick cold air intake from the Rubicon 392; no need to tell people that it’s the only way to route the incoming air with the V8 in this platform. That’ll be our little secret.

Great job Tonio!
That’s a relief, I was afraid you were going to have to run some of Swallwell’s erotic poetry instead.
Thanks, but this is all WebDom. I’m just the messenger, here.
I have the sidebar, but it’s better than it was.
Thanks Tonio, WebDom and all.
Thanks. I looked to see if I could turn off the sidebar, but that control isn’t where it used to be. This is one of those things we’re just going to have to live with until WebDom figures out which plugin was stomping on our new design, and why there was a phantom active plugin even after the deactivate all plugins thing was done.
Verified that I see this page and the main page in a readable format.
Not going to complain about our old friend the sidebar, it doesn’t cover up content.
Something’s working now. The crazy header is gone, and I can restore my Firefox window to full size…

The so-called enthusiast press
Science historian Naomi Oreskes scoured 929 scientific abstracts in the ISI database from 1993 to 2003 and said in the journal Science, “Remarkably, none of the papers disagreed with the consensus position.” Trump’s response to this kind of scientific agreement was to shoot the messenger—NOAA’s budget was cut 30% to 40%.
According to Union of Concerned Scientists CEO Dr. Gretchen Goldman, “The science, the facts, and the law are unassailable: EPA has the obligation and the authority to regulate this pollution under the Clean Air Act, an act of Congress it’s now blatantly violating. By scrapping vehicle global warming pollution standards today, the Trump administration has co-signed the release of more than seven billion tons of planet-warming emissions nationally in the decades ahead.”
The science is settled!
