The first week of the year is really fun for me professionally. I get to spend all day every day doing yearly regulatory compliance documentation, which adds exactly zero value and redefines the word “tedium.” This has not improved my mood, so don’t be pissing me off in the comments.

I like how Team Blue doesn’t even pretend to principles. There’s a refreshing honesty about it. Team Red has not gotten to that level yet- they still pretend that they’re honest, even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

Fun facts – Jacqueline Cooke was the product of a 73 day marriage between a 75 year old Jack Kent Cooke and a 32 year old woman. She demanded a $15 million divorce settlement at the conclusion of said 73 days. In 1987 that was real money!

Mittens to the rescue!
“I’ve been told that Romney has said he wants to be a McCain-like figure in the Senate,” says Dave Owen, a longtime Utah Republican strategist who doesn’t count himself a Romney supporter.
With the 81-year-old McCain battling brain cancer and likely serving his final term, Romney sees a coming void for an elder statesman in Washington who can take on Trump with unfettered earnestness and without significant political consequence. Carrying overwhelming popularity in a place where he still basks in “favorite son” status for rescuing the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics, Romney has tremendous capital to spend in Utah.
“Likely”? That’s some crackerjack reportage, Cletus.
I don’t think “McCain-like” is something to strive for. Stay clueless, Mitt.
^^^ Seriously.
I didn’t care much for Romney before, but now I really dislike him.
Synonymous with brain damage and/or affected cognitive degeneration?
It would seem that with Mitt’s terrible likeableness that there is no chance he can sport a McCainian war-boner.
It’s a pity McCain and Romney can’t be in the Senate together, they could form the Sore Losers’ Whining Caucus.
Throw in Hillary and you have the three members of the “I lost to Obama” club.
I wouldn’t put it past McCain to have his death hidden and a pull string put in his taxidermied body, so he can remain important.

Cool, this means Romney will be tortured in the jungle for the next 3 years.

The FBI has been quietly investigating the Clinton Foundation for months, according to people familiar with the inquiry, US media report.
The investigation is reportedly being led by FBI agents from Little Rock, Arkansas, where the foundation was founded.
They have interviewed at least one witness in the last month, reports the Hill, a Washington DC political news outlet.
Agents are said to be looking into whether policy favours were traded for unspecified donations to the foundation while Mrs Clinton was secretary of state.
But figures within the Justice Department and FBI doubt any charges will be brought, the Washington Post reports.
After exhaustive review of the facts made available to us, we find no evidence of wrongdoing.

Around 2000, some friends of mine did a few shows where they played live music to the movie Freaks. They set up TV monitors around the bar and stage while also dressed in costumes. It was quite bizarre. Their song Gooble Gobble / 97 mushrooms played during the scene you linked. The song was written about my antics on 12-31-96. Never take twice as many shrooms as the recommended highest dose. Lesson learned.

It’s news to me that the FBI has a Little Rock office. Is there really enough going on in that area to warrant one?
Or by “office”, they mean 4 guys that go into an office building and play solitaire all day waiting for the phone to ring.

Consider the fact that the campaign last month against the Met to remove a Balthus painting that shows a young girl in a suggestive light was organized by two young Manhattan feminists. Fortunately, they were unsuccessful. This is the kind of censorship practiced by religious zealots.

I’m I the only one who thinks that a federal crackdown on State legalization efforts is a good thing?
Ignoring the law is the wrong way to go about it if you disagree with it.
Exactly so, civil disobedience is fine for individuals.
I have no problem as long as they make it loud and clear it’s something people need to take up with congress. “Don’t want us to do this, make congress change the law. We can’t change the law. We are only enforcing the laws passed by congress.”
Which is basically what they’ve said as far as I’ve been able to pick up from those about me who follow the news.
I mean, states that have legalized in some form have 267 congressional votes and 54 senate votes (by a quick count that may be off by a few, but it’s close)
This is why I’m confident they’ll act. Nobody want’s off the gravy train and there isn’t a contemporary temperance movement to shame them.
Save that the war on drugs kills people and ruins lives I’d go along, you guys sound like Judge Smails “Didn’t want to do it, felt I owed it to them.”
Living under a system where the executive wields the power to change the law on a whim is what scares me. I don’t agree with presidents doing it for policies I don’t like, and I don’t like it when presidents do it for a policy I do like.
Law enforcement is a resource like any other and is always going to be prioritized. You could ticket every dip shit that doesn’t use his turn signal but at what cost, less cops to stop actually dangerous traffic crimes? Deciding to spend limited resources on things other than killing drug criminals is way down my list of things to get worked up over. It’d be one thing to break a few eggs to make the decriminalization omelet if those broken eggs were just some fines or wrist slaps, but I find wanting people to die/have their lives ruined so that maybe congress will act morally unacceptable.
If its too resource intensive to police then it should not require force of law. If the only way to make this understandable is to break the system trying to police stupid shit then i’m all for it.
I’m not saying it is too resource intensive, just pointing out that trade offs and opportunity cost play a role in prioritizing which laws are enforced and how vigorously. And again I have little problem with TPTB deciding to use those resources on bigger fish/actual criminals instead of medical marijuana farmers.
The Hyperbole indeed.
To paraphrase Solzhenitsyn – they voted for it, they should have met the Chekka with their guns.
You’re right , I’m sorry. I should have said – I find wanting policies enacted that will get people killed and ruin lives morally unacceptable.
I find wanting a President to merely put something on hold the killing and caging of people until another President changes the rules and resumes morally unacceptable.
I find leaving the ruining of lives and the killing people to the vagaries of administrative policy rather than the written law to be morally unacceptable.
*looks at CPRM* Did we just become best friends?
I too have a high life hat!
That’s the great thing about everyone having their own morals, you guys can be wrong and still feel good about yourselves.
I suppose you’re being hyperbolic, but I’d like to better understand your principles. As I understand, you are advocating a principle – “to want policies enacted that will get people killed and ruin lives is bad.” Therefore, the moral test is whether the actor wants polices enacted that will get people killed an ruin lives. We must distinguish between policy and law, I presume you mean policy to be “an individual’s course of action with respect to the law”. And the law to be a government prescribed course of action backed by force.
What is your moral principle on following law?
Does the content of the law determine whether it is moral to follow it?
Here, I believe it is axiomatic that which is not backed by force is not law and enforcement of any law will get people killed an ruin lives. Further, it is axiomatic that securing liberty from government requires law ergo the individual qua government cannot apply your moral principle. Hence my confusion. I am presuming, of course, you aren’t an anarchist. A better moral principle is really two, 1) approve laws that ab initio are not morally determinative and then 2) always enforce them. This system works individual qua government and individual qua individual.
Not sure if this will answer your question, and I’m probably falling into some utilitarian trap but here goes.
Moral principle- Follow just laws ignore/break unjust ones
of course content matters legality does not equal morallity
Your two point system works great except we have hundreds/thousands? of laws that violate point one, following through on point two isn’t going to make those laws magically jibe with point one. The question at hand seems to me to be should we push for enforcement of an unjust law in the hopes it will help bring about it’s repeal and thus eliminate it once and for all. I would buy that given two conditions, that the law wouldn’t be repealed otherwise and that the immoral enforcement doesn’t cause irrevocable harm to innocent people. If we can push for the unjust law to be ignored or even less vigorously enforce while we work to repeal it, and that course may save lives in the aggregate then that is the course that I would endorse.
Assuming you meant “am,” then yes. This is because you want to force congress’ hand, right? They have an incredible resilience to suffering, combined with moral cowardice. And if one party is fer it, the other will have to be agin’ it.
Looks for nearest orphan to cuff.
I have little faith in congress acting. What I do expect to happen, however, is more States starting to make State’s rights arguments once their legalization tax dollars are impaired. Not that it will be a painful enough lesson for them to learn ‘in their bones’ but it does shift the Overton window and, with the right cases, may claw back some liberty in the long run. Come the midterms, it may become a campaign issue which is also good.
Ha – you’ll be free to consume a recreational substance only because the state you live in wants its tax action. Genius fucking argument there.
Whether they act or not, it’s going to be hard to close Pandora’s box at this point.
And the President too, who can (and could) have rescheduled MJ.
I think it’s good, too. I’m hoping it will call attention to the issue enough so it’s taken care of the right way: congress passes a law that legalizes it, and leaves it up to the states to pass their own laws.
Presuming congress doesn’t pass a law and people are pissed, Trump now has an excuse to legislate by the pen and just reschedule the stuff. A brutal crackdown on MJ enforcement is political win for the administration any way you look at it because it creates problems which the administration may be seen to solve:
1) People upset, Congress acts in changing the law -> Trump credited for enforce laws as written and leading congress to pass historic change.
2) People upset, Congress fails to act -> Trump may act to reschedule, credit for appeasing people and historic change within scope of current powers.
3) People not that upset, nobody acts -> Credit for enforcing law as written
There really is no bad outcome for the administration unless they behave stupidly.
My guess is that it will go more like this:
People upset, Congress fails to act, Trump fails to act -> Non-violent offenders continue to fill the prisons, cops get new toys, credit for enforcing law as written with a small minority of voters.
Right. The worst case scenario is the status quo. The States aren’t going to disestablish their MJ apparatus just because the fed is ramping up enforcement.
Are you saying there is no scenario in which they might lose* therefore put something into action to score some kind of “victory?”
*Unless Trump dons an SS uniform and the justice dept. files drug charges on Obama.
Almost as if… they’re politicians…
I don’t know if I’d go as far as “good thing”. I would prefer if congress would do something. or whoever is in charge of the schedule (DEA?) would do it.
but I can see that acting as a bad guy might get congress of its ass. that’s a good move, strategically.
Scheduling is the purview of the executive branch. So, DEA, Surgeon General, NIDA. But effectively this means the president has to want this.
And don’t forget to remind your liberal friends that the previous administration could have done this AT ANY FUCKING TIME, but chose to not act.
Congress could also do this, but as noted above, lack both the spine and the motivation to do so.
Trump could throw it on Schedule 5 and that would solve a lot of practical problems. Of course, congress repealing prohibition would be better but I have no faith whatsoever that they will do anything. They couldn’t even get rid of Zero-care for crying out loud.
It’s these same assholes who want e-cigs treated like tobacco products. Even if they wanted decriminalization they’d still fuck it up.
I’m curious, does any of the beltway types actually like Jess Sessions? I guess he might have an ally or two, in the sense the Soviets were allies in WW2, but the bad man greasing the wheels theory is interesting.
Two points: 1.the Constitution doesn’t say the federal government has the power to regulate drugs, so tenth amendment says they can’t 2. The president can reschedule Mary Jane anytime he wants. The DEA is an executive agency, and they are the ones who made pot schedule one drug, not Congress.

“Seth Meyers Promises A Politically Charged Golden Globes
Late night comedian Seth Meyers will be hosting the 75th annual Golden Globe Awards on Sunday, and he is already poised to sink the show’s ratings by promising ahead of time to make the show political.
In an interview with People, Meyers pledged to inject his brand of political humor into the Golden Globes opening monologue. Though Meyers leans hard left, he did indicate that the humor will focus on the #MeToo phenomenon sweeping across Hollywood following the Harvey Weinstein scandal.”

Well that was strangely addictive.
Since it was cheap and I needed other things from the store, I decided to try scrapple (sighting was mentioned in the whiteness article).
Sliced and pan cooked, then put inside an English muffin with Colby Jack cheese it was oddly tasty.
I hear it’s good with grape jelly.
On its own, It tastes mostly of oats and onion. If you want to add grape jelly to that, go ahead.
Hey, just reporting what my Pennsylvanian friends tell me.
It’s a Philadelphian abomination, like pepper pot soup, and shouldn’t be linked to Pennsylvania in general.
Actually it’s Lancaster County. And it’s no one’s fault but your own that you don’t appreciate wonderful food.
Oh, I like scrapple just fine; it is a breakfast staple. But grape jelly on anything other than peanut butter is heresy. Chunky peanut butter.
And the Pennsylvania Dutch may have come up with the idea, but they keep to themselves. I’m blaming Philly for spreading the travesty.
My apologies. I know apple butter is supposed to be the go-to for scrapple.
Personally, I don’t like covering it with any sort of sugary spread. I like the taste of it on its own.
Fried up with a little bit of bacon and use the leftover grease to cook the eggs I’d my go to way of cooking scrapple.
No worries, as a NEPA native, I just enjoy taking potshots at Philly, especially now that I’m living there.
Oats and onions?? It is pork trimmings, cornmeal and buckwheat flour and some spices. And yes, the Amish traditionally like it with grape jelly.
I did not taste the pork.
*disclaimer – being unfamiliar with the flavor of buckwheat, it is possible my mind suggested a similar enough grain to be plausible.
I knew a guy once who would put grape jelly on grilled cheese sandwiches. He also liked to dump a lot of sugar on his mac and cheese.

My favorite pizza in college was shrimp (with a large number of baby shrimp).
I will not eat scrapple in any form. However, the way you made it is similar to how we ate spam (well, Treet anyway, but it’s the exact same stuff) in Iraq. Swipe an English muffin from the DFAC along with a tube of cream cheese (or you could use MRE cheese spread instead) and heat the whole sandwich in the toaster oven we had in the radar van.
…a tube of cream cheese…
Um, you sure that was cream cheese?
Of course it was, guttermind!
I mean, it was right there next to the baskets of English muffins and bagels!
*thinks back to KBR chowhall*
Again, are you certain that was cream cheese?
Why not just hold it on a stick out in front of the main lobe?
Because it was winter and cold outside!
Supposedly, the old ASR-8 they used before my time would light up a string of Christmas lights briefly every time the dish passed it.
Makes sense with that long wavelength stuff.
who knew that everything but the oink could taste so good?
The scrapply goodness that is scrapple claims another victim.
Evilly contemplates scrapple and pineapple pizza.
Equally evilly, remembers the time (pre-TSA) of taking a half-baked pesto-pizza from Oakland to Portland and making an entire 737 reek of garlic to please my then-missus.

The Davis’s do have a sort of habit of overreaching, but it turns out ok every once in 3 decades or so. They should make him general manager instead of coach.

“According to the Crown @CountDankulaTV is colluding with his pug to use adorableness to trick people into gassing footballs stadiums full of people. No I’m not joking.”

“The two year ongoing trial on whether or not it is an offence to have a sense of humour in Scotland is to culminate today.
The subject of this monumental waste of court’s time is YouTuber Mark Meechan, otherwise known as his alias Count Dankula. Meechan taught his girlfriend’s pug Buddha to do Nazi salutes on command as a joke for a video, and to largely annoy his girlfriend. The authorities were alerted to this incredible display of Nazi propaganda, and Meechan was arrested.
Meechan, also known as ‘Literally Hitler’, states at the beginning of the video: “My girlfriend is always ranting and raving about how cute and adorable her wee dog is so I thought I would turn him into the least cute thing I could think of which is a Nazi” but Scottish court decided to ignore the concept of ‘context’ and ‘freedom of speech’ and have instead kept Meechan on trial for the best part of two years.
In the crackdown against free speech in the United Kingdom, it would appear to be an oversight on the police’s behalf that they did not arrest Meechan’s Nazi pug as well. It is clear to see that man’s best friend can easily be indoctrinated with Nazi ideology and that unless Buddha faces a fair trial he could potentially go on to deny the Holocaust. Hate speech should not be tolerated in any form, even if a species is unable to vocalise speech that humans can interpret.
If found guilty Meechan could face up to one year in jail to keep the public safe from his memes, but Buddha will remain free to spread his Nazi propaganda across Scotland.”

And before you know it, the damn thing is leading a canine army into Poland. And setting up concentration camps for all the cats.
How do we know the pug intends it as a Nazi salute as opposed to say, the Black Power fist salute? This trial will require the same kind of canine mind reading abilities that every case involving a drug sniffing K-9 does.
As long as every dog is sworn in, should be fine, right?
Pugs are white, obviously. Black dogs are those poodles, labs, and pitbulls, duh
Clearly that dog should be punched in the face.

Raven Nation mentioned the new season of X-Files in yesterday’s morning linx, but I didn’t have a chance to watch it until last night when it became available on Hulu, Sweet mercy was it ever so fucking terrible. It may be the most phoned-in piece of television I’ve ever seen. Watch only if you’re eager to see Chris Carter dig up the corpse of your childhood hero and then casually proceed to give it a Cleveland Steamer. Raven Nation was far too charitable with the overall rating – I give it 3/10. The only redeeming aspect of the show was the (quite possibly unintentional) homage to the chase scene from Bullitt. I’ve read that subsequent episodes will be much better, but this one set an astoundingly low bar.
Yeah. I commented on it. Wife and I were eye rolling through most of it. The ‘scientifically banging’ Scully still has us giggling.

“Vegans furious after police share cooked breakfast photo to support farmers
A police force has been met with a tirade of abuse after sharing a photograph of a cooked breakfast.
Vegans criticised the North Wales Police Rural Crime Team for posting a picture in support of local farmers, after National Farmers Union (NFU) Cymru (Wales) had hosted a ‘farmhouse breakfast’ campaign meeting.”

any recommendations on good Mouse?
I’ve had this Logitech VX Nano* which i’ve used everywhere for everything for almost 10 years. which is amazing for anything made of plastic in china and which you bang on every day. but it was always very responsive and worked with everything, and i especially liked the smaller ‘travel size’ and the quality scroll-wheel. (not round rubber like cheap mice, but more like a faux-metal roller with either click or smooth scrolling) It still works but i find myself taking it apart to clean it every couple of weeks when before it was once a year.
(*weirdly, i’ve seen them listed in three places for like $200-300+. I think i paid like $50. Why anyone would pay more is…. i don’t get it.)
i’m actually considering buying replacement parts and fixing the old one. But wondering if anyone else has some porta-mouse that they are particularly fond of.
I normally just wait until my cube neighbor leaves and switch mine for theirs.

I’ve been using my Logitech Trackman FX wireless trackball since 2000. I have no idea what I’m going to do when it dies; it is pure ergonomic perfection. IIRC, Logitech was sued by some fellow who held a patent for a trackball that fit the hand and they discontinued the model. Sigh…
Yeah, to each their own.
I need something that can be moved around/traveled with if needed. This seems like the successor to the VX things. I’m not down with the ‘rechargable’ thing tho. I don’t care if it eats AAA batteries, i just don’t want it to crap out 100%, which i suspect any re-charger will at some point.
I’ve been won over to Steelseries side, they have some wireless stuff.
looks nice, but not really into the charging dock, or the pointless use of neon lighting
i should have emphasized that i really want something portable (wireless+battery operated).
That sounds awfully expensive.
I use a Logitech M500. It sells for around $20. It has a cord, which means I don’t have to charge it or replace batteries.
as i said, i think it was like $50 new.
i don’t know who wants $100s for them still, but apparently they do. they have them on Ebay for $200+. I suspect the reason is that Logitech over-engineered that particular model, and everyone who owns one realized they’re far more durable and functional than anything made. since so they command a premium. there seems to be a robust trade in replacement parts for them as well.
but in any case… yeah, i should have emphasized, i’m looking for travel-sized, cordless, non-rechargable…. etc.
I have the Logitech mx master. It was a bit pricey, but I love the programmable buttons. With a flick of a thumb, I cycle through virtual desktops and with a click of a thumb, I open launchy.
It’s not a Porta-mouse by any stretch, but that doesn’t stop me from taking it home
Yeah, it seems my best bet is to just go with one of the things in the MX series. they’ve got a half dozen i could probably use (the “anywhere” is probably the one i need). I don’t care much about the side buttons but i do like the programmable center one and alternate scroll-modes.
Logitech M705. Has a wheel like you mention, and its two AAs last three years or better (even with it never being turned off).

And not a word from ENB.
I just remembered, I need to go to Greece. For reasons.
Remember to pack some sandwiches.
Eh, what kind of a sandwich?
Jerrod had lots of sandwiches before he went to jail…
Well, as long as they don’t make you the sandwich, I’m sure she’s fine with it. Can’t have them demeaning themselves, after all.
A sandwich or a Gyros? I’ll pay a premium for good Gyros.
No MS, the prostitutes aren’t giving you sandwiches to have sex with them, you have to… Oh nevermind.
I am paying equivalent to the price of good Gyros what should I expect? Is bondage okay? What if I just want to watch her clean my toilets?
Why do you want to tie your sandwiches up? You’re a sick fuck, mang.
Its true. There’s a pic of me at Potbelly that says, “do not serve this customer.”
Just guessing about what their typical Greek clientele might be, I would say cleaning toilets would probably be a nice break.

So how long has it been since Methuselah reappeared as Letterman? They said it was the end of days and that the Great Orange Trumpalo would be the sign.
They beaming the show directly to your brain?
If you think excerpts of the lightbringers new speech is not going to plastered all over the front page of every single news outlet for a week after the show airs you obviously have not been paying attention.
It must be tough going through life with the inability to ignore things. Snark aside, I suspect many of you would be upset if Obama and Clinton went away and the MSM became responsible, the bitching is so constant that there must be some pleasure involved.
Oh yeah, we would really hate it if they did their jobs. I love having to read between the lines and check 4 different sources for every goddamn story to get the truth.
*laughs an Eastern European laugh*
Why would you ever not do that? You just want to hear what you want to hear?
I find Letterman much more obnoxious than Obama. And I find BO very obnoxious.
Yeah… I saw that and figured it’ll be a hard pass for at least the first episode for me.

“The first week of the year is really fun for me professionally. I get to spend all day every day doing yearly regulatory compliance documentation, which adds exactly zero value and redefines the word “tedium.” This has not improved my mood, so don’t be pissing me off in the comments. Get it? GET IT???”
I spend 365 days a year, when I’m working, hearing about, discussing, and writing software that is about nothing but regulatory compliance and tracking regulatory compliance. For the medical research industry. You haven’t seen regulatory compliance until you’ve seen that miles deep pile of shit. First week of the year? Heh.
That does sound like hell.
Yeah, but it’s not actually his job.
Well, it’s not mine either, but it is. I just look forward to the added job security of having to build 37 gender checkboxes for all of my clients. If I was the one who was actually responsible for this stupid and had to deal with the agencies, I’d last about a week at best and you’d probably see me on the evening news a ‘white hispanic’. Also, I do other stuff part of the week.
Please tell me you’ll have a check box labeled “All of the above.”

Which beat what I used to do, which was
– Identify via statistical analysis anomalies in the data.
– Investigate further to determine anomalies were actually government personnel not following proper procedure.
– Then, document they were informed they were identified as not following proper procedure.
– Then, document their latest excuse as to why they were going to ignore the proper procedure.
– Document that it was presented to the proper authority.
– Document the proper authority reviewed it.
– Document the proper authority didn’t give a shit either….
Repeat the following month.
So was she complying with the regulations?
Serious question, though: on some level, do you enjoy it? I mean, do people who talk to you run the risk of having you go off, explaining how you implemented such-and-such?
Because I always wonder about that; I definitely think my work is tedious in its own way, but on the other hand, it still manages to hold some fascination for me, such that I could talk your ear off about how I implemented such-and-such vector algebra classes as templates that delegate to free functions, so that callers can choose whether they prefer saying a.dot(b) or dot(a,b)… which is very tedious in the implementation, and which I have to assume would be just mind-numbingly boring to normal people.

Based on interviews with 8 female STEM students, two professors recently concluded that “masculine” norms are to blame for the lack of female STEM graduates.
According to the professors, these masculine norms include “asking good questions,” “capacity for abstract thought and rational thought processes,” “motivation,” “independent” thinking, and a relatively low fear of failure.
…
Unfortunately for the female students, many of them indicated difficulty embodying these traits, reporting that they tend to ask fewer questions in class than do their male peers, and have noticed that other women in their classes share the same inclination.
“When I think about it, I guess the females rarely ask any questions, or they’ll go and ask the professor like after, or um, if we’re doing homework, and we have questions,” recounted Julie, a junior majoring in physics.
Taking risks was also a problem for female students. Although STEM professors often highlight the importance of students willingness to take risks, many female students expressed reluctance to do so for fear of failure.
Madison, a senior in math, told researchers that her fear of failure definitely had an impact on her academic performance. At the time of the interview, she indicated that she was “taking a class that I dropped last year because I was, like, thinking I could fail it.”

Marine veteran fighting to fly American, Marine Corps flags outside Texas home
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/01/05/marine-veteran-fighting-to-fly-american-marine-corps-flags-outside-texas-home.html
According to the article they moved into a neigjborhood with a HOA and their flag poles are too high, not the flags themselves.
True, although I still think it’s a silly rule, and if you make silly rules, you should not be surprised when people break them.
and if you break silly rules in an HOA, you should not be surprised when people make your life miserable over them.
And because you’re a *veteran* doesn’t mean you get special treatment.
It surprises me when people side with the HOA in these stories, especially when most of them ignore the speed limit and other rules they don’t like.
Most people ignore rules they think are silly. Why then, do they get upset when others do the same thing?
Im not. I despise HOAs.
but the stories of their fascistic-rigidity about rules are legion. it doesn’t matter who it is or why, if you break HOA rules, they’ll make you miserable. If you didn’t know this when you bought your property, you’re an idiot.

Bonobos show a preference for jerks
The research suggests humans are truly unique in their preference for people who help others.
***
Scientists hypothesized bonobos behave this way not necessarily because they prize poor behavior, but because they perceive the mean characters as dominant. It’s advantageous to maintain relations with those of higher social status, as such relations can lead to greater access to food, mates and reduce the chance of getting bullied.

Served with Caesar salad and asparagus pea risotto.
So, I just got done reading the previous day’s links and comments (time zones, etc) and there was a brief discussion towards the end about Americans and savings.
A few years back, and after learning my lesson when college debts came due, I never wanted to be a victim of my own financial decisions again. Being a millennial, good financial advice can be hard to come by from the “normal” sources millennials look to, so I just began researching and within five years of following age-old financial tips, I paid off $50k of student debt and a $20k car. I could have paid it off in two if I wasn’t modifying the car at the same time. I’ve now got a sizable emergency fund and a very diverse investment portfolio and you know what? I’ve never felt more confident about, well, everything. So when I hear my fellows complain I burn white hot. When they go after “shareholders” I immediately turn on them and ask why they’re targeting me. What I’m discovering is that these idiots were never taught to do it for themselves so I know it spreads across multiple generations.
This simple decision, to become financially independent, led me straight to being a libertarian. I openly challenge my peers to save, or, if they think they can’t, to send me their budgets to analyze and find savings. Some do and their entire mindset immediately flips. It’s truly remarkable. I guarante-ffucking-tee nearly every American can find the savings they need (maybe not want, but need), even if it’s just enough to pay for things in cash.
Anyways, that was my caffeine-fueled Saturday morning rant. Now I’m going to read the links.

We just saw “The Darkest Hour” and reflecting back, for once a contemporary movie allowed an old white male to be an unabashed hero. Nothing about him oppressing anyone, no mention of the horrible privilege, or patriarchy, just a guy who led England from the brink of defeat into victory in WWII. How nice to see a biopic where they didn’t feel the need to deconstruct a historical figure into something decrepit.
No wonder for a Friday noontime matinee the theater was entirely full, two weeks after the movie came out. Lots to like in the flick. I’m going on record now to say that Gary Oldman wins the Oscar for Best Actor this year.
That looks like a good one. I’m going to have to check it out.
Look at what they did to Star Wars. There is no objective truth anymore except the objective truth that only white people can be racist.
Yeah that’s one I want to see
Really looking forward to seeing this. Oldman is a fantastic actor. Also, he’s not your typical brain dead lefty actor.

You’re one of the styxhexenhammer fans here right? You might find this interesting:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UiUH-tWHbr8
A very long (4 hrs) livestream recording featuring Styx, Sargon, and the always affable Richard Spencer that aired last night. It occasionally devolves into a back and forth muddled shitshow but it was pretty good overall, at least the parts I managed to listen to.
I like Styx well enough and Sargon has his moments but fucked if I’m signing up for a Four (!) hour long discussion with Spencer.
I don’t think I could take 4 hours of any of the above. A few Styx songs might be fun but their lyrics are so melodramatic. It’s funny when I hear them now actually.
Equinox is a solid album said every 14 year-old Festus, everywhere.
Equinox was worth it just for the groovy fire-melting-ice cover art.
Oh, and Suite Madame Blue.
Great grope song when your hands were simultaneously spider-like and boxing glove clumsy.
Seconded.
That Styx is freaking terrible except for *thinks a bit* nah, that sucked too.
Guess I’m a fan. His videos are better than 95% of political videos on YouTube. It’s not a problem that they talk to Spencer, but I can’t imagined hearing anything new.
Thx though. I’ll give it a little listen.
Even though I found it interesting I could only make it through an hour or so. Four hours of people trying to pin Spencer down and him dodging and weaving was just way too long.
That was arrogant and ignorant of me to say I wouldn’t hear anything new. It’s interesting. Spencer sure does like slipping flowery yet meaningless phrases in and when he gets called on it, he gets all eye rolly.
They are thumbing their noses at Google. Drawing a line in the sand, as it were. They’re using Spencer and he’s using them. It’s disappointing that it has come to this.
We all knew white identitarians would gather more support in response to racist identity politics by the left. Spencer is a pretty mild expression of a backlash that could be coming. I think many people on both sides actually want the big fight. Clubs and guns instead of ideas. Dangerous times indeed.
This is the image that adorned my T-shirt at my 30th high school reunion. Behold! https://youtu.be/wqxW_KnQeLQ
Sargon is a passive aggressive asshole that is using sophistry to derail Spencer. Styx is effectively dismantling Spencer’s arguments despite Sargon chiming in with snide comments aimed at Spencer. Losing a lot of respect for Sargon.

Food stamp recipients down 2M under Trump, USDA figures show
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/01/05/food-stamp-recipients-down-2m-under-trump-usda-figures-show.html
***
Data released by the Department of Agriculture show that the number of participants in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), otherwise known as food stamps, dropped to 42,182,443 for fiscal 2017 – a decline of 2,036,920 from the fiscal 2016 total of 44,219,363.
USDA figures since show that the program has gone from costing taxpayers about $250 million for about 2.8 million recipients in 1969, under President Richard Nixon, to a peak of costing nearly $80 billion for nearly 48 million recipients in 2013, under President Barack Obama.
The numbers have declined since then, in part because of the booming economy and because some states have restored work requirements needed to qualify for SNAP, Fox News reported. In many cases the work requirements had been waived because of the recession of 2007-09.
The 2017 figure of 42.1 million people assisted is the lowest figure since 2010, when the program assisted 40.3 million people at a cost to taxpayers of $68.2 billion.

Yet another story you won’t see anywhere but on Fox News or the right-wing blogosphere.

I just call everyone Bitch. That way if they have a sense of humor they’re not offended and if they don’t, we’ll then F’em.
Call everyone a motherfucker, then explain that you’re a Freudian.
You’d be surprised how many people get offended by me saying “you guys.” They want me to say “y’all” like we’re in the South or something. I’d love to see how they’d react if I switched to “hey bitches.”
Do it!

I guess it’s a good thing we’re not humans here, just a collection of tulpas and lizards.
Don’t forget Dancer
I’ve already been outed as Tulpa.
But I thought we all were.
We’re not all tulpas, some of us are lizard people, and then there are some ((others)).
And Canadiens.
“Guys”? Did you just gender me?!
I just saw Dunkirk. Pissed me off quite badly. If those guys could see what their progeny are doing today they would shoot them.
Now you do have to see “The Darkest Hour”, which I mentioned above. It’s really like a companion piece for Dunkirk. It shows what is going on in England during the whole Dunkirk episode, including what the situation in Dunkirk was leading the British leaders to do (many were ready to negotiate for peace with Hitler to avoid a Dunkirk bloodbath). You also see Churchill’s involvement in getting the pleasure yacht brigade together. And both movies end with the same speech.
I thought it was great. Depersonalized and therefore highly personalized. Giving the back story to characters the director wants us to sympathize with is my biggest complaint with Hollywood.
Since about 1900, I’d guess.

Yes, Russian Marxists faced conditions of illegality and police persecution. Hence, building a revolutionary party involved a significant activist cadre becoming professial’nyi revoliutsioneri. Normally translated as “professional revolutionaries,” it really means “revolutionaries by trade.” In the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, professii or professial’nyi were words applied in Russian to skilled workers “in an efficient organization.”
There’s nothing innately elitist about such terms. Following the SPD model, these underground activists “will rise from worker ranks.” Such revolutionaries must become experts in the skills of konspiratsiia. This term doesn’t actually mean an elitist “conspiracy,” merely “the techniques of illegal political work.”

See? Completely different.
The difference between a chef and a dumbshit is the chef actually can make an omelet, the other merely makes a mess. Nearly all revolutionaries are dumbshits.

My wife has been putting her Christmas present to good work. I got her a cricut
The main reason I did so was so that she could learn to make awesome t shirts (along with whatever she wanted to do with it). Here’s the first one she made. In the future, she will make many more for me. If any of you Glibs have suggestions for good ones, I’d appreciate it.
I want Aim to Misbehave, black text on Yellow Shirt, I’ll send you the Shirt, how much for the Wife’s Labor?

little to nothing. The shirts are 2.50 and the printing material is about a dollar. how about 7 bucks?
Cool maybe Paypal?
Size Large, 2 if you can, and 25$ to help with shipping, send me your info,

Not to sound like a one note guy, but I loved the line “Don’t Worry, The Jacket Will Save Us” from Bacon’s hilarious video (I miss you Bacon Magic). That’d be a funny shirt
I have a couple homemade shirts; one says “Beer Time” the other says “Blame it on the System”.
You could always do “Fuck Off Slaver” but maybe you don’t want to be walking around with that.
I’ve flogged this one relentlessly because it’s the best shirt I own (even though it’s not homemade):

Low-carb egg noodle recipe:
Servings: 2
Calories: 111 kcal
Ingredients:
1 ounce cream cheese, room temperature
2 eggs, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon wheat gluten, may omit but it creates a better texture
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 325F. Add the cream cheese, eggs, and gluten to the jar of a blender. Blend on high for 1 minute, or until smooth. Pour our on a silicone mat that’s placed on top of a heavy baking pan. Smooth out into a rectangle, keeping the batter very thin. Bake at 325F for 5 minutes, or until set. DON’T over-bake! Remove from oven and let set for a couple of minutes before cutting and using as desired. These are best if they are gently simmered in a sauce or broth for a few minutes.
Thanks!
Cool! I mail order “Carba Nada” noodles for convenience, but this sounds fun to try for comparison.
Thanks.
I’m going to try it tomorrow. Hoping wax paper works in lieu of the mat.
I’d probably try parchment paper instead of wax paper.
Ahh… good call. I don’t normally use anything but foil.
Trump retweets Rand Paul’s bill proposal to remove aid to Pakistan and reallocate the funds to infrastructure. Chances of a bill like this passing with the headwind of a bully pulpit? Well, maybe not .01% anymore. Maybe 35% or something. Good for him regardless.
“Infrastructure” means reducing the national debt? I suppose blowing the money domestically is better than giving it to Pakistan, but that doesn’t mean it’s a good thing.
I don’t like that part of it from a libertarian perspective, of course, but this is clearly about trying to get this bill GOPe support. Cutting foreign aid anywhere possible is a noble goal regardless.
A less bad way of overspending doesn’t seem a good slogan. Ron Paul would make the same argument Rand is making. It’s strategy at this point and my option isn’t on the table, so I suppose I’ll shrug and say, “yeah, I don’t like foreign aid either.”
Infrastructure means giving a dozen lack-wits Hi Vis vests and letting them watch while a backhoe rips up shit to no good purpose. “We Are Helping! We Are Helping!”
“”infrastructure.”‘
sigh
I saw that earlier. Very well said.
Lord help us.

I suspect both people were immigrants from muslim countries. and wherever they came from, problems like this would normally result in, “Lash the woman 100 times for sex out of marriage”.
But now that she’s in the west, she has some notion that the Western Imams (judges) now make her the empowered one, and she can use that power to have 100 lashes dealt out to the man who she feels shamed her.
that’s half a joke, half serious. i think there are lot of very-huge differences between systems of justice in the ‘west’ vs. almost everywhere else. and many immigrants really don’t understand the principles beyond knowing “what you can get away with here that you can’t there”. Dark-Humorous examples follow.
Hammer to the head and flush to the board! “What you can get away with here that you can’t there” should be on the reverse side of every Country’s welcome sign. Those fuckers have to leave.
Currently watching one of the new Chappelle specials (Equanimity). And holy shit, he’s still got it. I can see why the SJW’s are pissed about him now. He’s a black Muslim comedian, who tells jokes about transgender people. Who’s got the current hierarchy calculator?
I wondered about that Show, now i must watch, and Thanks for Boardgames.com ,Yahtzee anyone?
Still haven’t tried Can’t Stop yet? It’s a much quicker press your luck game (that is grossly overpriced in the real world).
Currently drinking a Kronenburg 1664 Blanc and it tastes of hairspray and Sir Arthur Harris. This is the area bombing and wypipo of beers. (I’ll finish the case.)
Sounds pretty good to me. How’s the weather up there?
I heard a strange sound when I opened the window this morning. Drip, drip, drip. The cold has gone and it is currently above euro zero. No, you do not want to drink beer that tastes like vile soap candy.
Where abouts you at, Festus?
Prince George, BC. The first time that a glib asked me that I was like a 15 year-old on a first date. Now that I’ve been rode hard and put away wet, I could give a shit. The trust is earned. Good people here.
Um..Ok…we’ll gloss over that and say Canadian. Checkbox done.

I’ve had that beer, and it’s a terrible European lager. I’m giving the Europeans the benefit of the doubt, and assuming it was drinkable before it was shipped overseas. Worst random foreign beer I’ve had was Hue from Vietnam… brewed from the fragrant waters of the Perfume River. Fruit flies avoided this shite.
Don’t you people drink?
Just laundry soap but you’ve probably never heard of it, so…
Nope, we have laundry detergent in the USA.
Infused with laundry soap essence, then! Fuck you Aspies are hard to please…
True, I can only find one shirt at a time that fits ‘right’ at a time, everything else is always shit.
That’s why I only have a dozen grey t-shirts and five pairs of jeans.

Never.

I don’t get this show Hot Ones. they are supposed to be consuming these hot sauces on chicken wings, yet all these wings look naked, so are they like putting one drop on? Is spicy the new black?
Not watching the show, because what the hell, it’s worse then reading links. I would assume that if they’re really going to the uber end of hot sauce, then they are only using a drop or two. I’ve seen entertainment when someone tried to use a ghost pepper hot sauce the same way they would a Chipotle Tabasco. And I’m fairly sure that spicy is the new wypipo, although I’ve finally found an Indian restaurant that I don’t have to argue with to get spicy food.
I was going with the one drop black thing.
^ points up to a reply on comment 73.
I don’t really have a defense here…
also, fuck putting a drop of hot sauce on something to see how spicy it is, take a damn shot.
Whassamatta you guys? Always keep a bottle in your purse in case of Black folk. Have you shitlords learned nothing?
I have been known to carry these around with me at times.
And purse? The worst I carry is a messenger bag.
Convenience satchel. Saddle bag. Hollow thing.
So what? In the summer I carry a purse. You wanna throw down?
I drive a truck instead, Mary.
I drive past all them pussies driving 4×4 trucks driving all dainty on the winter snow every day in my 2 wheel drive little toy car.
If you ever come to Cleveland, I’ll gladly watch you do a shot of Barrio’s Carolina Reaper sauce. At one point, they used to serve it on the tacos, I know this because I was one of the first who suffered through it. I loved their Ghost Pepper sauce, but the Carolina Reaper went a step too far. Since then, they only serve that sauce on the side. I will however be thankful for that sauce being introduced for me to learn of a new way of tamping down capsaicin… lemon juice. The girlfriend decided to try a drip of the sauce, and immediately melted down (in general, she thinks pepperoni is spicy), we were out of chips, but our waitress said that she would bring us a lemon. The lemon actually cut down the burning in the girlfriend’s mouth.
Tacos? Cleveland? HAHAHAHHAHAA!AHAAAAA!
Don’t make me send you Skyline chili.
We may not have a lot of Mexican immigrants, but we culturally appropriate better then most. I mean, what’s an empanada but a pierogi by another name? And we have a small (but thriving) community of South Americans coming up to our community and offering up awesome food such as arepas.
Chili ain’t Mexican
I’ve had commercially available ghost pepper sauces, not impressed with the heat. I think they tend to tamp down on it. I tried growing ghost peppers, but the plant died before it matured. I’d love to find somewhere I could find something like that reaper sauce.
I’ve got some home grown ghost peppers that scared off chipmunks (a story the girlfriend loves to tell). If you want some, feel free to hit me up at my handle at gmail. I use one in a pot of chili, and it has a nice level of heat. I’ve learned the plants really need two years to throw off fruit, and they do not survive under about 65 F.

Ugh. Best wishes to you, friend. I hope it turns out to be a big sack of nothing,
TY, I think I’lll have to quit smoking.. everything
I had one a couple months back because my doctor is more scared then I am. Good luck to you, and anything dealing with cardiovascular shite, at least check with the experts.
TY, I think I’ll be OK if I pay attention to my Dr.s for once,
Saturday? That Office Manager Mohammed is a hard ass about not giving time off…
Good luck Yusef. Hope it’s just a waste of time and money.
All the best.
I reinvented the Gunfire cocktail. We’re out of mixers except earl gray tea. Not bad.
Pony tails and cocktails, two things that will always rock.
You could always make an Elevenses as well. Tea, Irish Whiskey, lemon juice, and jam.
Iced tea, sweetened or unsweetened, and gin is very nice too.
I think I’ll have to try that. I’m drinking this cool with rum.
