Bourbon is so much easier to spell, and you don’t have to worry about adding letters to it.

I have no Colt 45 in my house, and probably never will. I do have a large selection of bourbon, gin, beer, and Irish Whiskey.
Does Glenlivet count as scotch? I’ve been meaning to try it and that was the closest thing I could find.

Neoliberalism Is Creating a Mental Health Crisis
https://www.thomhartmann.com/blog/2018/02/neoliberalism-creating-mental-health-crisis
***
So why would this be happening? Well, it turns out that this is the result of neoliberalism, which you could also call Reaganism or Thatcherism. Both the United States and the United Kingdom have been badly infected by this, and Germany to some extent. This is part of the battle that’s going on right now in the conservative base in Germany. The German conservatives are neoliberals.
So what they write about is neoliberal ideology. What is neoliberalism? Neoliberalism is the belief that looking at markets and noting, as Milton Friedman pointed out years and years ago, millions of decisions are made every second in marketplaces and therefore Friedman suggested marketplaces are perfect because they’re crowd sourced.
Well, it’s BS, because marketplaces are actually created by both government and companies and manipulated by both government and companies. But nonetheless neoliberalism is the ideology that what works for markets should work for politics and should work in our social lives.
…
See, prior to Reagan we had a we society – from the New Deal in 1933 all the way up to 1981 it was a we society – we were strengthening Social Security, we were strengthening Medicare and Medicaid, we were building free college education all over the country, we were all in this together. Post-Reagan it’s the me Society – me, me, me, me, me. And it’s atomizing, breaking up, shattering society and the standards of the we Society of the “I’m my brother’s keeper” as one of our callers talked about recently.
Neoliberalism destroys that. Reaganism and Thatcherism destroys that.

Selfishness didn’t exist until 1980. All of humanity was living in a happy Smurf village before then.
Hartmann has no idea what the UK was like in the 70s.
Back in my callow yoof, I enjoyed the rambunctious fun of chasing rats out of the piles of trash in the street and on waste ground and beating the fuck out of them with a cricket bat.
That’s Charlie work.
Growing up in rural SW Ohio as a teen in the time before every phone had cable-TV and them interwebz, it wasnt uncommon to go to somone’s farm for a “rat shoot”. A 30-pack of something or other would be conveniently left in a barn, and we’d descend with tied-closed pants legs and .22s.
Those were simpler times.
Sevo used to link to those videos all the time at Reason.

The “Winter of Discontent” was a huge fuckin’ problem. Like living in Venezuela.
Scheduled power cuts 4 nights a week, no garbage collection, fire departments stood down and the army covering fires using equipment from the 40’s.
And the Brits are going to vote for that shit again in Corbyn.
Every thirty-to-fifty years, a nation has to rediscover really, really bad leadership.
As opposed to the just very bad leadership they normally have.
Hartmann should go and die in a fire. And by die in a fire, mean die in a fire.
Asshole: some of the mental health problem is due to conservatives trying to save money. But there’s also those who see this as a civil rights campaign and work against mandatory treatment. I’m not sure if mandatory treatment is particularly libertarian, but I think it’s possible to make a case for it in some circumstances.
To be clear: I’m calling Hartmann an asshole.
I listened to that guy for awhile way back in the day when I first bought a Sirius Satellite Radio.
He’s the left wing version of Rush Limbaugh – a peddler of talking points, playing on people’s biases, and generally full of shit.
Overheard today on Jebus radio
“I was watching TV and eating pizza, pepperoni and mushrooms with a stuffed crust, with my kids when the show started mocking the values I tried to instill in them. I knew then that I was dealing with soul pollution.”
Thanks, Helen Lovejoy. The detailed description of the pizza lends a lot of verisimilitude to that story.
Stuffed crust pizza with pepperoni? Her coronary arteries may like a word about “pollution”.

A bunch of dinosaurs are at a meeting. An ominous asteroid fills the sky above them. The caption reads “we are aware of the problem and are working to solve it.”

It’s even funnier because the ‘Gulag Queen’ looks almost exactly like the chick he’s already with.
That meme may even be better than the writer intended.
on the psyops implications of drone strikes
I think drone strikes are a propaganda freebie to the enemy. They can say: “See? the Americans are such cowards they are afraid to even get with in range of our weapons.”
on a side note
I practiced shooting with a .22 today. It was surprisingly good at 100 yards but not good at all at 200 yards. I don’t how much of that was me and how much was the rifle/ammo.
The series of tubes sez .22 is good to about 150 yards.
You’ll start to experience bullet fall and the sights are probably zeroed for about 100 feet, then there’s going to be variation due to ammo, and of course 1 moa becomes 2in instead of 1in (close enough for USG work) if you double the distance.
What was the 22, and what brand/spec ammo?
some Zastava bolt action; ammo was CCI
i had about 10 misfires out about 200 shots. The clerks said it was probably because the rifle hadn’t been cleaned in a while.
The CCI is pretty much the gold standard in plinking ammo.
A dirty rifle – especially in 22 – will screw up just about everything. The gun might be getting hot might too.
.17 hmr stays supersonic longer and flys flatter. It is better than .22 in every aspect except cost per round. If you don’t have a .17 hmr rifle, get one. You will like it.
Past about 130-140 yards, things get real interesting with the .22LR. The bullet starts to drop like a rock, and wind and spin drift become major factors.
My local club does a long-range .22-only match a few times a year, shooting out to 300 yards. It’s a blast.
Got to Port Hueneme. Picked up a 4 pack of North Coast Pranqster and a 6 of Figueroa Mountain Danish Red. (not as many breweries in the vicinity here).
Honestly…while Coronado or the SD area is decent for this time of year – good gravy, the drive from Coronado to Port Hueneme this morning was crazy. All urban sprawl all the way from SD to PCH 1 with the exception of Pendleton. Just a concrete hellscape – and what pisses me off the most are the useless exits – no service signs for any of them – no idea what’s where or why/whether I should pull off at a particular one for “needs”.
Given how warm it is now and how hot I know it gets – dry heat or otherwise – and the lack of rain, clouds, etc that I like (ie. the Pac NW…or Charlottesville) – I can see no reason whatsoever to live in this hellhole.
Even PCH 1 was a waste of time until I got past Malibu and the traffic lights and things opened up for a few miles. On the plus side, I’ve hit some of these “locations” – and I have no reason to come back on my own dime. I’ll drive to Santa Barbara airport at the end of the week – and that should cover a few more of the relevant coastal miles.
I assumed In ‘n Out was a little more widespread, but apparently the closest one to me is 20+ miles. I’ll try lunch there tomorrow.
Picked up the beers at the NEX, not off-base. Still a fairly small selection overall.
Wtf? You’re in SoCal? We could have mustered a decent glibs drink-o-rama. Thanks for the heads up.
Decent for this time of year??????
It’s been 72 and sunny for month straight.
I have a summer tan in February.
Decent compared to Virginia this time of year. I’m walking around in a T-shirt and feeling great. That wouldn’t be happening in Cville.
It’s gonna be 65 here in NoVa tomorrow. Granted, it’ll be pouring most of the day.
Go on about these “needs” of yours…
I’ll give a thumbs up to both beers I noted: North Coast Pranqster and Figueroa Mountain Danish Red. Worth checking out.
I didn’t even think to ask when I was at Half-Door last night…if they don’t bottle and only sell from the brew-house/pub….do they take Growlers? They weren’t listed as growlerable on my little San Diego Brewery map…but is there really anything stopping the bartender from just filling up a growler from the normal tap?

Back at you, big guy. Trying to work through a hangover from hell this morning. My buddies at the bar last night: “Do your Bozz Skaggs/Tom Waits mashup imitation again. We’ll buy you a beer!”. My throat is fried today. I sound like Nick Nolte being choked out by a NY cop.
“Bozz Skaggs/Tom Waits mashup imitation”
wait, wtf.
those 2 things are like “Barry White meets Pee Wee Herman”.
tom waits has a gravelly baritone, bozz scaggs a nasally… something.
what you describe reminds me of a drinking-joke my friends used to do, which was “James Earl Jones duets with Bob Dylan”. One person would read the lyrics the way JEJ would do his Darth Vader/Shakespearian voice, and the other would be like … bad bob dylan.
it was funny if you were high.
The contrast was the point. There was third singer in the mashup. The dude without the sunglasses. What’s wild to me is how close Bozz and Kermit sound.
“”how close Bozz and Kermit sound.””
yes, the ‘nasally, short-throated’ sound is the bozz thing.
i actually like a lot of bozz stuff. I jacked a drum break from this a while back

I’ve been saving this article for while, intending to link it in an MS beer review article. Then I forgot to do it earlier today. So the hell with a theme, I’m dropping it here.
The science of better beer
It’s a pretty cool article. There’s some low level explanation on how brewing works for the uninitiated, but there’s also some in-the-weeds stuff for
Nephiliumbeer nerds. If you have even a passing interest in how beer is made, you should give it a read.College friend just posted about how much he luvz and respects Chelsea Clinton…
What the actual fuck has she ever done to make people think she’s actually human, let alone earn love and respect?
My ex….eh….’fling’…… I guess….. texted me a photo of her out doing Lindsey Vonn cosplay in the bars with some anti-trump shirt on. I really think these people just love to hate, it’s less about who they are for and more about whom they revile. The fact that the only banner they have to carry is people like Chelsea Clinton is… SAD!
It’s just signaling. There’s no rationale beyond the desired results of professing your position.
Yes that warm, fuzzy feeling when you say you hate that icky Trump and ipso facto, are on the side of the angels, no matter how horrible your own ideology and/or character is on its own merits.
Smarmy prog pukes. Ugh.
What the actual fuck has she ever done to make people think she’s actually human

So I took the car up to Georgia for a track day at Roebling Road, outside of Savannah. It’s a great little circuit to learn on, but tricky at the same time — several double-apex curves, but a lot of runoff area. And through most of the afternoon, I was reminded why I love track day. But you always have to keep in the back of your mind that motorsport can be dangerous.
Track day is aces! I used to take my lil suzuki up to Nelson Ledges and try to break it. I never did.

And who thought it was a good idea to have a 70 year old man doing high performance driving?
Two totally unrelated things:
1) I hate the term “partially blocked” by basketball announcers. I get what they mean by that, but if a player shoots the ball, the defender makes contact with the ball, and the ball misses, that’s a block. But the “partially blocked” call by Mark Jones just now in the Spurs-Warriors game made even less sense than usual: Danny Green shot a long jumper, Kevin Durant got a hand on it, and the ball popped straight up. The ball didn’t get within 15 feet of the rim. THAT’S A BLOCK, DAMN YOU.
2) Monday late-night smug alert: Stephen Colbert’s guest: Neil DeGrasse Tyson.
Ah, we may finally see the smugness singularity so long postulated.
Can a head be inserted into an ass so deeply, that not even another smug ass-head can pull it out?
Can God create a comedian so bereft of jokes as Stephen Colbert? Well, he did, so we just have the burrito too hot question left.

I get irritated by a lot of shit basketball commentators say, esp when they try to invent new lingo for the same old shit
they all say “Bigs” now for any centers. the noun is “bigs”. its not ‘big man’, its the ‘bigs’.
then they have to say “going downhill” anytime someone has the ball. yes, there are two sides of the court, and when you run a fast break offense, you try to move it quickly from one side to the other. but they fucking say “AWW THEY GOING DOWNHILL” as tho this is some new and exciting idea.
i see similar stupid shit in football, lacrosse, even the olympics today. media people trying to use lingo like they’re teenagers. i cringe.
If I were king, all sportscasters would adapt prison lingo for sports.

Reminds me of some football announcers and their propensity for “trips left” or “trips right.”
its not some grassroots change in the way language works; its not something driven by changes in the way actual athletes talk about their game. you can tell right away its some media-driven attempt to create lingo-hooks
its like Bud and their “dilly dilly”. just make some shit up and hope it sticks.

I work with a guy who’s got “DILLY DILLY” on his rear windshield.
It’s made “Philly Philly” legendary in Philadelphia (was the term that Foles and Pederson used to call the play that resulted in Foles’ TD catch at the end of the first half of the Super Bowl).
I knew that the world was due for SMOD the day I read a respected sportswriter on a major site, in the course of explaining a complicated multi-sided contract dispute, use the phrase “Individual X has beef with Team Y.”
I was downtown with the family where there was some ACLU dude shilling for signaratures /sign-ups/whatever to “Defend the constitution against Trump ‘ and similar shit. If I’d been alone I’d probably have tried to pin him down on exactly (a) what Trump was doing that was so unconstitutional, and (b) what he wanted to do about it. But man, it was annoying as hell listening to him yell the same things at all the passers-by.
“DO YOU HAVE A MOMENT FOR YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR? HATING TRUMP?”
That is why I never go “downtown” without having a couple beers and/or shots in me. However, behaving like that is why people refuse to go “downtown” with me.
In the interest of Full Disclosure, my “downtown” is like 100 people.
I thought for a second “downtown” was yet another euphemism until this part:
And now I’m sure of it.
“and that’s actually ChapStick in his pocket- for a reason!”
Years back (2003 or so) I was wandering bored around Center City Philly and passed by a mall (Gallery at Market East, I think, before it went to complete shit and they closed it to rebuild it). There was a guy with a table for the Socialist Party sitting in front of the mall handing out pamphlets.
I was on the phone with my wife when I walked in, and I made a comment about it. Didn’t know he could hear it, but whatever. When I came back out he made a comment. Tried not to go off on him, but did ask him how in the hell one could be “free” if they weren’t free to do what they pleased with the money they earned. He said something about the rich stealing from the poor… it was like 15 years ago, can’t remember what he said. I walked off. Wasn’t worth it.
I find I can’t help myself anymore. I don’t bring up politics to people I don’t know, but by god if they bring it up I can’t help but ask questions. A guy I run into pretty regularly started talking about Bernie and, “how he had some good ideas”. I did a surprised head shake and before I knew what happened I blurted out, “name one.” He couldn’t of course and just kept repeating, “well, he had some good ideas.” It surprised me. This guy is retired military and thought an outright communist had some good ideas. It was very strange.
It’s blurry, but I like this guy’s sense of fashion.

There are these “hard right” groups that are trying to restore the emperor to the head of the government. Or some crazy shit like that. They drive around all black vans flying the flag of imperial Japan. Today was some demo against them. Looks like two idiot groups squaring off, so I’m just watching from the coffee shop on my lunch break.
What are they going to do after the abdication? It’s going to be like Society of Pius X after Vatican II.
So there’s a group of people that prefer tribalism and the “shogun dynasty” and just 1 Imperial Ruler? And they’re fighting with people that don’t? That sounds really familiar, I just wish I could place it but its…..I just dont know.

Ewww.. Give me the crab juice
Speaking of crab juice, I dumped lobster stock on myself earlier. Almost scorched the little fella. I have a question for you. I think I am going to pull the pin and get a sous vide stick. Are the ones under$100 worth it, or must I spend more?
I got this one It’s a little more than a c-note on sale but It’s held up for over a year and has served me well, although I don’t use it as much as I thought I would.
800W sounds decent for that price. The 1000W ones seem to be closer to 200 clams and I don’t want to spend that much. I couldn’t find the wattage for the cheaper ones I was looking at.
Power wise I haven’t noticed any issues, but I am usually only cooking one or two servings at a time. I did make about 3 lbs of pork shoulder for Carnitas once, and a brisket that took 48 hours, the Carnitas were great ,the brisket was meh, but that was on me not a problem with the Anova’s power.
Once you get the water to target temperature, an 800W is plenty to keep the water at that temperature if you use some insulation.
All you need is a device that will keep the water at temperature.
Under 100 is fine. That’s what I’m using right now. Twice today, in fact.
We have the Sansaire. Got it because it was the simplest (I don’t need an app to heat water).
