Sunday Morning Links of Exhaustion

The week has been too long, and dealing with tards makes it even longer. One small ray of hope- we just hired a new waitress whom we might be able to ease into the Tard Waitress’s hours. She scored major points with me during her training on wine when she asked, “How do you keep from getting shitfaced when you’re tasting so many wines?” I responded, “In serious tastings, you spit the wine out after tasting it.” She smiled and responded, “I always swallow.”

Well, let’s change the subject to birthdays, of which today’s include Tres Cool’s hero; a rather brainy fellow; a pioneer of integration; a guy whose movies will be canceled any day now; another argument for term limits; the guy who wanted you to mention Lucy; the punchline of my favorite Milton Berle story; a guy whom I had the pleasure of helping to boo off the football field; and a bullshit artist who was the best part of the Trump regime.

Links are no bullshit.

“For the 753rd time, we mean business!”

Well, points for creativity.

I noticed two new slogans: “carbon pollution” and “climate breakdown.” And the reliably stupid WHO trots out the always-useful “nuanced” to explain why they oppose air conditioning.

“…give it to them good and hard.”

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn’t stop to think if they should.

Betting against Elon is a sucker’s game.

Let’s be honest, Canada did them a favour.

“I don’t want any of them blowing me.”

Couldn’t happen to nicer people.

So the writer of these fake letters doesn’t know how ChatGPT works and assumes Slate readers don’t, either.

The Father of Modern Drumming, the only guy that Buddy Rich admitted was better than he was. Late in his life, but still. The band isn’t credited, but I recognize Milt Hinton and Stan Getz.

    Is she trying to sell wine or blow jobs?

      • Sensei

        Nice…

        So, now its the sweet Terra Cotta cafe, and Den of Iniquity!

    • Pope Jimbo

      A guy comes into a bar and orders six shots of whiskey. He downs them all in quick succession.

      The guy sitting next to him at the bar asks what the occasion is.

      “First blowjob” said the first guy.

      “Congrats, let me buy you another” said the second guy.

      “Don’t bother, if the six shots didn’t get rid of the taste one more won’t do it either” said the first guy.

      That pic above looks like the new waitress is trying to get the taste of her “training” out of her mouth too.

      • Grummun

        I am not a wine guy at all, but whatever she has in the glass doesn’t look like wine to me. Maybe an amber ale, or brandy.

      • Old Man With Candy

        FWIW, that’s almost exactly the color of so-called orange wines, white wines made with extended skin contact.

      • Threedoor

        Extended skin contact.

    I got that one wrong because I guessed Donald Trump.

    ““Despite the Division’s assertion that Mr. Sullivan may be excluded from the ballot because he lacks ‘good-faith’, there is no statute which provides such a criterion,” Matthews wrote in his Friday ruling. “The concept of ‘good-faith’, or pure motive, or bona fide intent is simply absent.”

    Having two different people with the same name is still stupid.

    They should build those stalker toilets in Canada. Then you would say they “dance the Can-can!”

    “So the writer of these fake letters doesn’t know how ChatGPT works and assumes Slate readers don’t, either.”

    Can someone explain this to me like I’m five?

    • Old Man With Candy

      Try the prompts suggested in the article with ChatGPT. You’ll get the equivalent of “Sorry, Dave, I can’t do that.”

      • Common Tater

        I’ve never used AI, so I have no idea which ones let you do what.

      • Old Man With Candy

        The article specifically called out ChatGPT. So clearly bullshit.

      • Old Man With Candy

        Ironically, it wouldn’t do the image heading Links today, so I ended up using Grok.

    “The UFC match plot: how a far-right group tried to assassinate Trump at his own event

    After the story broke, it was partly eclipsed by breaking news about the Iran war and the excitement of the World Cup. Yet the facts are shocking, and perhaps confusing: the plotters had far-right views, but hoped to kill Republican officials. They chose their targets with the help of a leftwing website that tracks politicians who receive donations from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (Aipac), the pro-Israel lobby group. And one of the plot’s alleged ringleaders, Abraham Alvarez, 31, is reportedly an undocumented immigrant from Mexico…..

    That framing is disingenuous – Trump, as much as anyone, mainstreamed conspiracy theories about Epstein – but it does point to the fact that the plot, viewed from the outside, might seem ideologically incoherent. Yet it is coherent, said Michael Edison Hayden, a journalist and analyst who studies extremism.

    Far-right communities online are often as hostile to Trump and the Maga movement as they are to Democrats, he said. People like the alleged UFC plotters are “anti-government, and the government happens to be run by Republicans”, he said. He suspects that the plotters have fairly standard anti-elite views with antisemitic and accelerationist characteristics.”

    Is there anything that isn’t far right?

    • Sensei

      Scott Weiner. He’s “center right” according to The Guardian.

    • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

      Anything that isn’t “left” and down with The New Thing.

    • rhywun

      That take is hilariously wrong even by Guardian standards.

      Who’s going to tell them who actually hates Jews now?

    • Common Tater

      I was running some errands and doing some shopping yesterday and saw several Latino couples wearing matching jerseys of their country of origin. I thought it was cute.

      • rhywun

        Tangentially… if there is one term I never want to hear again it’s a match at an American stadium full of some third-world diaspora being referred to a “home game” for that country when the United States team is not present.

      I, for one, did not know that Rob Halford had a sex dungeon.

      • EvilSheldon

        Rob Halford was actually really vanilla in his personal life.

        Didn’t stop him from getting an entire generation of metalheads to adopt the fashion of the east London leather scene, though.

      • Common Tater

        I thought the leather thing started with Eric Bloom of BÖC? Some fans even threw whips onstage. Although that might have had something to do with dog sledding?

    • Threedoor

      He didn’t even bother to paint the OSB?!

    In one of the most underwhelming “Firsts”, Sacramento Sheriff’s deputies “disarm” a suspect using a drone.

    Drone pilots located the suspect hiding in a corner of a garage. One of his hands was concealed under his body, and the other was holding a knife. He was obviously alive, but not responding. Was he pretending to be dead or simply lying in wait for deputies to approach?
     
    Rather than rush into a potentially deadly encounter, one drone pilot came up with an innovative solution. By attaching a powerful magnet to the drone, the pilot was able to safely remove the knife from the suspect’s hand before deputies moved in. It was an incredible display of creativity, skill, and precision by the drone pilot.

    I guess it is better than the deputies rushing in and panic shooting the dude.

    “A radical, Israel-hating California teacher claimed she married a Gaza resident online to help him gain American citizenship — and push her pro-Palestinian agenda.

    Laura Pinho, a dance teacher at Canoga Park Senior High School in California, announced her nuptials in a wild June 16 CODEPINK Zoom webinar called “Challenging Zionism In Our Schools.”

    When CODEPINK activist Marcy Winograd congratulated her on her marriage and asked her to share details about her life, Pinho, 51, launched into a pedantic monologue about how she only married Salem S.E. Abu Amra to advance “Palestinian rights and freedoms.”

        i assume wild pin cherries are different from red currants, which are also tart, but they sound interesting.

        1. City freezes rent.

        4. Landlord goes bankrupt because he can’t afford to pay for all the bullshit repairs the city decides need to e done due to the complaints filed.
        5. Landlord tries to sell property.
        6. City says the landlord has to give favored groups the right to make offers or to match existing private offers, which could take a couple of months each time a new offer comes in.
        7. Property value plummets while this intentionally drawn-out bullshit process takes place.
        8. Fines continue to mount up for not paying for bullshit repairs.

      Cut open sport coat pockets?

      Are the pockets on them sewn shut? Why if so?

        The jacket drapes better.

      Good luck Ev.

      Anti decoys?

      A dog barking affect?

        Yes.

        A lot of federally protected shore birds are a PITA.

        If you are a restaurant you can fly a bunch of flags over your seating and sometimes it will discourage them, but not when there is no wind.

      Rhode Island needs to be a county and stripped of its senators. In fact MA, CT and RI should be one state.

        You want an internecine war over clam chowder?

      • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

        Manhattan Clam Chowder or GTFO!

        North east goes to war with itself.

        That’s fine with me.

    • Chafed

      That sounds inclusive.

    Northern MN needs to be part of NoDak. Better taxes, etc. The 7 county metro area can do what they want. Throw in St Cloud and Rochester as a bonus.

    Slaves of fashion

    In the basement of the Paca House, a kitchen reveals the grueling work it took to get the food on the Pacas’ table. The Pacas were not cooking their own food, and neither were the Founding Fathers — they relied on the enslaved.

    “A few of our biggest cuisine definers are Washington and Jefferson — famous enslavers,” Lohman said. Both men had well-known enslaved chefs: James Hemings, a chef for Jefferson, and Hercules Posey, Washington’s chef. Jefferson even took Hemings with him to Paris to train in French cuisine. Macaroni and cheese recipes exist to this day that likely came from Hemings.

    In the Pacas’ kitchen, a meal on a small wooden table resembles what an enslaved cook would have eaten: stewed kidneys, boiled hominy, pickled beets, collard greens, roasted sweet potatoes and black-eyed peas. As Connett pointed to the food on the plate, she said it would not be enough to satisfy hunger.

    “When we’re remembering: What did the Founding Fathers eat? We have to remember all of the people in the kitchen,” Lohman said.

    America, land of lies.

      “stewed kidneys, boiled hominy, pickled beets, collard greens, roasted sweet potatoes and black-eyed peas”

      Sounds like enough food to me.

    My brother in law found this one.

    That’s not a barndominium, that’s a luxury log home.

      It’s a little too close to the road but I’d take it.

    “Two Utah court clerks have been arrested for allegedly helping illegal immigrants evade ICE and escape out the back door of the Logan City Municipal Justice Court earlier this month….

    “After sneaking out the back door of the courthouse for the first time with an alien, Morrow and Joma were allegedly spotted on a surveillance camera waving and smiling at it, and Morrow used her middle finger in an obscene gesture at the camera. On the second trip, Joma allegedly drove off with three aliens in her car before returning alone to the courthouse for work,” ICE added in a statement.”

    That’s one punchable face.

    Gross, the chef of 50 years, tries to keep himself from thinking too much about the past. Like many chefs before him, he’s dealing with the present — procuring the tavern’s supply of food for the coming days.

    “I come in here almost every day, and the building is just old,” Gross said, laughing.

    He’s not tormented by the incessant weeping and wailing of his enslaved predecessors? He doesn’t obsess about how much better off he’d be in his “homeland”? What is he, some sort of race traitor, focused on the here and now?

    Noted authority

    Former President Biden late Saturday slammed President Trump over his Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and other Washington renovation projects in a rare public appearance.

    “It’s not just his vanity projects,” Biden said in remarks at a Saturday night gala hosted by the Maryland Democratic Party. “He’s tearing down the East Wing of the White House, making room for his ballroom. Putting his name on the Kennedy Center. Building an arch in his own honor. Even hiring his own pool guy to fix his Reflecting Pool.

    “Whoa, what a loser.”

    Did his attendants lure him off stage with a bowl of ice cream?

  41. The Late P Brooks

    “Now folks, it’s not just that,” Biden said on Saturday. “The Reflecting Pool reflects something even worse than the narcissism and incompetence at the core of this administration. It’s the corruption, the brazen, blatant corruption. Corruption on a scale never seen before in American history in any administration.

    “Trump has made billions of dollars since his return to the White House,” he added. “It’s simply stunning to me. He has no shame. And frankly, it’s embarrassing to the country. But Trump could care less. Making money off the presidency is one of the reasons he wants to be president.”

    You sound envious, Joe.
