Brett is at the doctor’s office this afternoon, starting his rounds of plastic surgery to repair the alligator bite wounds. So, following SP’s morning links, y’all get me and my inimitable afternoon links. It was a tossup between Lucky Pierre and Sloppy Seconds, but I felt that the former was more apropos.
I feel empowered now that I know how to put lines between each story like a real grownup. Ironic that it was SP who showed me how to do this, albeit with much sighing and eye-rolling. Well, whatevs, let’s look at the news.
In big news that for some reason has totally escaped the notice of the Trump-obsessed media, the House has actually passed a piece of legislation that INCREASES the strength of private property rights. And the vote was unanimous. There is one teensy little obstacle, though…
The House vote didn’t have much drama to it, but the issue directly aims at the relationship we have with government and the nature of private property, a core right recognized in the Constitution. Kelo perverted that relationship, putting everyone’s property rights hostage to politicians who want to hand off spoils to bigger entities. The case prompted some states to step in and redefine eminent domain to prevent another New London abuse, but despite four attempts by the House to correct this injustice, the Senate has remained obstinate.
And of course, a president with a veto pen who has declared that he LOVES eminent domain. I very often disagree with Clarence Thomas, but his dissent in the Kelo case is delightful invective.
Of course, any of us little people, after stealing over $100k by fraud, would have gotten off with no jail time and no felony conviction. Right? Her family connections were of course completely irrelevant.
Caroline, 31, offered an apology while promising her wild ways are behind her, as she accepted her sentence of two-years probation. ‘I not only acknowledge my conduct and take responsibility but deeply regret the harm caused,’ she told Justice Curtis Farber. ‘I can assure you that I have made amends, full restitution, completed community service and that nothing like this will ever happen again,’ Biden said, according to the New York Post.
As part of her deal she plead to a lesser charge of petit larceny.
Decked in a fitted black dress and ankle booties with her blonde locks flowing, Caroline happily had her felony conviction tossed.
Some animals are more equal than others.
The investigation revealed that the couple had been asleep in their bedroom when they were awakened by the unknown suspect speaking to them and asking to use their WiFi network. The suspect was wearing something covering over his face. The male victim got out of bed, confronted the suspect, and pushed him down the hallway and out the front door of the house before calling police. No one was injured.
Chez SP/OMWC, if he had managed not to get eaten by our rather large guardian dog, he would have taken the Room Temperature Challenge, assuming SP (a crack shot) had a gun within reach of where she sleeps. Which she totally doesn’t because it would be illegal. Totally.
Grewal, the country’s first Sikh American attorney general, took to Twitter in response to the comments, which were made during Wednesday’s episode of “The Dennis & Judy Show” on New Jersey 101.5 radio. Grewal wears a turban as part of his religious beliefs.
Hosts Dennis Malloy and Judi Franco brought up Grewal’s turban in a conversation about his recent order to suspend marijuana prosecutions. Malloy said he could not remember Grewal’s name, telling Franco, “I’m just going to say the guy with the turban.”
“Listen, if that offends you, then don’t wear the turban, man, and I’ll remember your name,” Malloy said at one point.
Me, I’m Yarmulke Man.
In 2012, the New York Army National Guard paid the Buffalo Bills $250,000 to conduct on-field re-enlistment ceremonies. In 2014, the Georgia National Guard paid the Atlanta Falcons $114,000 to sing the national anthem. In 2015, the Air Force paid NASCAR $1.5 million in part for veterans to shake hands with racing legend Richard Petty. Your tax dollars. At work.
If you skip the usual SJW drivel in this article, the main point still stands.
McFarland pleaded guilty to felony charges of wire fraud, bank fraud, and lying to a federal officer in an 11 a.m. appearance before Judge Naomi Reice Buchwald on Thursday, according to the Justice Department. The plea deal carries a federal sentencing recommendation of 135 to 168 months in prison, though he could be sentenced to as many as 75 years under the felony maximums.
The alleged fraud happened while he was out on bail awaiting trial on the Fyre Festival fraud. Well, you do have to commend him for consistency.
Old Guy Music yet again. I think I’ve posted a Leon Thomas song before, but there’s always room for more. This time, a short piece from an album that ought to be much better known than it is, with Thomas, Oliver Nelson, and Johnny Hodges, a real supergroup. This song is basically a vocalese version of Duke Ellington’s “C Jam Blues,” which beats three chord rock by being basically two note jazz. Thomas does his usual “holy shit, how can he make his voice do that?” pyrotechnics, Nelson’s arrangements are pitch-perfect, and Hodges is… well… Johnny Hodges.

” Kimberly Guilfoyle: Don Jr.’s Girlfriend Reportedly Forced Out of Fox News
The former host allegedly left amid accusations of sexual misconduct and “emotionally abusive” behavior
Last week, Fox News announced that host Kimberly Guilfoyle would be leaving the network after more than 11 years to head up a pro-Donald Trump super PAC. The network framed Guilfoyle’s departure as her decision, and as Donald Trump Jr.’s girlfriend, there had long been rumors that she would eventually be involved with Trump administration in some capacity. But according to Huffington Post, Guilfoyle is not leaving voluntarily; following a human-resources investigation into allegations of inappropriate behavior including sexual misconduct by Guilfoyle, the network decided her time was up.
Huffington Post’s reporting is based, in part, on interviews with 21 anonymous sources within Fox News and 21st Century Fox over the last year. They say that Fox News decided to part ways with Guilfoyle over allegations that she showed colleagues pictures of male genitalia (and identifying the men photographed), and regularly discussing sexual matters at work. Vanity Fair and The Daily Beast had previously reported that Guilfoyle misused network makeup artists for personal outings, but Huffington Post’s sources also say she’s accused of “emotionally abusive” behavior towards support staff at the network, including hair and makeup artists.”

Caroline Biden: would.
Just don’t leave your wallet on the night stand.
Based on the self entitled resting bitch face, I don’t think it would be that good.
She exudes bad news.
You know that CC belonged to some sugar daddy . She’s probably had the card for a while and has been banging him the whole time. She not a cheap ho.
“Decked in a fitted black dress and ankle booties with her blonde locks flowing,”
Would.
Those aren’t the forearms of a thirty year old.
Yeah, that would explain it.
Drug addiction would explain how she spent $110K at a pharmacy. I would have at least blown it traveling the world, getting drunk and leaving huge tips everywhere.
In 2017, Biden used a borrowed credit card to make purchases totaling more than $110,000 at the high-end Bigelow Pharmacy in Greenwich Village.
…
But instead Biden opened an account at Bigelow Pharmacy and spent more than $110,000 between April 2015 and June 24, 2016, buying the store’s lavish products.
Timeline’s a little screwy. I wonder what “lavish products” is a euphemism for.
Oh hell yeah…..sign me up!
“the Air Force paid NASCAR $1.5 million in part for veterans to shake hands with racing legend Richard Petty”

“Which she totally doesn’t because it would be illegal. Totally.”
Well, she’s only nine-years-old. But couldn’t you just say it’s your gun?
As long as you’re there to supervise…
What am I doing here? It’s the PMs Lynx.
You never help out around here!!!!!
“Which she totally doesn’t because it would be illegal. Totally.”
Ah Cook County.
Man the Count and I are on the same wavelength this afternoon.
Thank Yahweh we don’t live in that godforsaken county.
Nothing left to regulate
Food, glorious (and free) food, that classic tech company perk, may soon be off the menu here.
Two city supervisors have introduced legislation that would nix the installation of nonretail cafeterias in office buildings, a measure aimed at encouraging legions of workers to patronize often struggling neighborhood eateries.
———
“We’re in the process of entitling 6 million square feet of new office space, so it’s the right time to ensure that the vibrancy of our neighborhoods is preserved,” says Safai, an urban planner by training.
“San Francisco has a rich history of culinary expertise and cuisine,” he adds. “We’re not talking about taking away a perk. You can still provide it, through vouchers or food accounts or catering. There are lots of ways to enhance and support the local economy.”
Nothing says “vibrant neighborhoods” like piles of bum shit on the sidewalk.
Festively festooned with discarded needles.
“You’re bound to prick yourself with the antidote!”
What’s next? Mandate on open plan offices because everyone should be equal?
SF gov needs to DIAF.
I have some young in-laws studying Urban Planning. Talk about a field where you can fuck everything up and never suffer any consequences for it.
Urban Planning, along with Public Health, where people go to become the cogs in the crushing wheels of state.
I need to check on specifics, but I believe the new tax law changed how/when companies are able to deduct employee food expenses. It makes me curious as to whether this proposed regulation wasn’t seeded.
That’s just so bizarre – I mean, unless the offices are literally in the middle of downtown…who leaves the office daily for lunch? Our “team” has lunch out maybe once every month or every other month when our supervisor comes in from out of town, but everyone else (including me) eats at their desk with what they bring in. Or they go to the cafeteria and bring it back to their desks….we’re on the clock people /contractor
I leave the office daily for lunch, and it’s a 5-10 minute drive to food.
I’d lose my mind if I didn’t get out of the fucking building to recharge.
Not taking a chance losing my parking spot either – 7-3 and I’m done. (plus having to go through security each time, ID cards, etc – not worth the hassle).
Understandable, and validates my refusal to live or work anywhere that infringes upon my god-given right to ample and free parking. Some things are non-negotiable.
“Listen, if that offends you, then don’t wear the turban, man, and I’ll remember your name,” Malloy said at one point.
I’m terrible with names, and often do associate people with basic appearances, i.e.: “I spoke with the lady with the neck tattoo last week, who said my dry cleaning would be done by now.” now I wouldn’t remember her name anyway, and quite frankly I narrowed it down enough for the other person I am speaking with to know who I am referring to.
Does that make me a racist?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCUADvwyPUE
This is exactly how I memorize names.
Listen if calling you an ignorant asshole offends you then stop being an ignorant asshole.
No, being a racist is what makes you a racist.
WOO HOO
One of my startups was in a shitty old office building that had an “eclectic” group of tenants. One of the was a gal who was about 5′ tall and at least three bills. Her nickname in our office was “Ms. Short-Fat”.
Later she got the stomach stapling and probably got down to 150lb. She was still Ms. Short-Fat though.
* One of the most horrifying overheard conversations was when Ms. Short-Fat was telling a coworker in the elevator about her upcoming surgery to trim her “fat apron”. The fat apron was a big gob of flesh around her tummy that used to be full of fat, but was now being hacked off. Uffda.
Does that make me a racist?
Probably not. Now, if you had said, “The one who looks like she should have a bone in her nose”… maybe.
“The outing comes just hours after Kristen was revealed to have joined the Charlie’s Angels cast.
Kristen will star opposite Naomi Scott and Ella Balinska, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Elizabeth Banks is set to direct the film and will also play the role of Bosley, the never-seen owner of the detective agency Charles Townsend Detective Agency.”
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6000309/Kristen-Stewart-puffs-cigarette-Stella-Maxwell-joining-cast-Charlies-Angels-reboot.html
Bosley and Charlie were two separate characters.
She’s playing both, as well as two Angels and the bad guy.
One can easily see the appeal of creating an in-house oasis that offers meals: It’s a chance for workers to stay on the clock longer and collaborate together, and it has become a standard perk for recruiting and retaining in-demand tech workers.
But sending those same employees into the neighborhood could revitalize it, city officials and restaurant owners argue.
Fuck off, slaver.
“But Britney Spears won’t be tempted to drink as her team has reportedly banned alcohol from being backstage, according to Page Six.
This comes just days after Demi Lovato suffered a near fatal overdose during a day off from her tour. The former Disney star allegedly was on meth and heroin while doing shots before being found unconscious in her bed.”
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-5999501/Britney-Spears-team-bans-alcohol-backstage-tour-Demi-Lovatos-drug-overdose.html
So meth and heroin is still OK?
Would.
Isn’t there some advice to ignore about sticking it into crazy?
There’s a segue to Madonna in here somewhere.
I worked on a stop of the Paul McCartney tour a few years ago. The road crew said meat was completely banned, not only did catering never serve any, if you brought any tasty flesh to the gig or tour bus you were immediately out of a job.
McCartney should have taken advice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QL2oHg1GwjI

Speedballs are totally safe.
In case you needed yet more evidence that Cory Booker is a retarded buffoon, well, here you are.
The whole thing with Alyssa Milano makes me sad 🙁
There’s apparently a Charmed reboot that is totally woke.
The Power of Rheeeeeeeee!
Speaking of Cory, I saw him on tv inviting all his constituents to visit his office “and get in his face.” Well, not his face of course, but the face of Trumphitler representatives.
And speaking of retarded buffoonery…..
Does anyone think that rounding up some Russians and making an example of them is going to stop cyber crimes in the future? The CIA has done 100x worse. That kind of behavior between countries is just going to happen. They should just shut up and quietly fix any weaknesses in the voting system. Shooting their mouths off is going to result in some real hypocrisy being exposed.
I am not going to read the root. Let me guess, the circumstantial evidence is that Herself lost.
It’s the latest Trump isn’t legitimate memo being sent out to Democrats everywhere – now we KNOW the Russians actually hacked voting machines and changed votes!
And expecting actual, you know, evidence to support the claim means you’re either part of the conspiracy or one of its dupes.

Not sure if you know the back story to that pic of the deer being shown on the main page.
The photographer had been following a herd of deer for a while. He would give them all names. There was one little spike buck that he named Charles. Charles wasn’t like all the other deer. Instead of leaving the does and going off on his own (or even joining a bachelor group) little Charley kept hanging out with the females.
After a few years, Charles would spend all summer knocking his antlers off so he looked like a doe. Eventually Charles would even start pissing on him/herself just before rut to be like the gals.
In fact, he became so proficient at mimicking a doe that some of the other bucks would be fooled. One of those moments where the males were fooled by a trans deer is what the photographer captured and made famous.
He calls the picture: Two Buck Chuck
*throws rotten vegetables*
Vegetables? Or fruit? Specifically melons.
No rotten melons, only the freshest. YUUUUUGE melons.
We’re all Keynesians, now.
“To drive interest rates lower would run the risk of accelerating an international monetary crisis,” Burns told Nixon on March 19, 1971, in response to the suggestion about “goosing” economic growth.
But Nixon kept at it.
In July, he told aides to leak a story that he was considering pushing to expand the size of the Fed’s board, which would weaken Burns’ influence.
Even a personal warning from legendary economist Milton Friedman didn’t dissuade Nixon from continuing to push for lower interest rates.
“If you let the inflationary pressure build up over us, we might be able to hold it down at least through the election,” Friedman advised Nixon on Sept. 24, 1971. “After this, you’ll have a great upsurge in inflation.”
On Oct. 10, 1971, Nixon told Burns that concerns about too much liquidity in the financial system are “just bullshit” and worried his will be “the last conservative administration in Washington.”
That Nixon. What a conservative.
“Amazingly, not one major media outlet picked up on this”
Media outlet. I dont think of them as that at all. Leftist propaganda mills? That seems more accurate. If there is anything leftists hate it is private property rights, the single most important attribute that has made this country what it is and so different than all of the others. It is the bedrock of liberty. We still have a way to go though.
FFS. I should not be teaching the WFM software devs the DB Schema for the ACW DB.
Yeh, I hear ya.
We’re talking about deep dish right?
FFS = For Feminism’s Sake
WFM = White Feminist Male
DB = DudeBro
ACW = Anti-Capitalist Womyn
For those who care about the two rarer acronyms:
WFM – Work Force Management – software used in Call Centers to anticipate call volumes and predict necessary staffing levels
ACW – Should have been ACD, I typoed it. ACD – Automatic Contact Distribution – Software that assigns calls to call center agents based on different criteria. ACW is After Call Work, which is something else entirely.
The middle C in ACD is/was call, not contact.
Was. Now most of the vendors have shifted to Contact since the systems will also support chat and e-mail (which lead to their own headaches).
Hang on. I have to go yell at some kids that are on my lawn again.

I think .380 is a good round for small pocket pistols. I have no problem with it.
https://www.shootingillustrated.com/articles/2018/7/26/the-380-acp-built-right-for-pocket-pistols/
I think it is underpowered, and limited by outdated, all steel direct blowback pistol designs that generate an unreasonable amount of felt recoil for such a small pistol.
Lets duel.
“Lets duel”
.380s at dawn.
To be honest modern ammunition mitigate the underpowered loads a bit and there are more modern pistol designs that deviate from the Walther PPK style blowback. Its a hard sell though, because the same pistol in 9mm isn’t all that much bigger and ammunition is significantly less expenses.
The PPK though–its classy.
Ehhhhhhh……actually the 380 has a good bit of penetration. It packs a punch. The problem is that the bullets are generally very hard round nose bullets. They punch pinholes. If you can get hollow points to feed properly the effectiveness goes up exponentially.
I don’t always carry my .380, but when I do, its loaded with hollow points.
Lets duel.
Actually, that was meant as a joke. Note my next comment.
I knew someone who carried a German-made PPK loaded with silver bullets.
Lycanophobia?
I can’t pontificate on the merits of the cartridge, but my dad has a Ruger LCP in an external holster on his belt that looks just like a cell phone case. Easy to bring everywhere.

Springfield clone of the Sig P238.
I’ll wait for them to make a 9MM clone of the P938.
I have a P238, I’ve always wished I’d waited until the P938 came out.
Came very close to buying the P938 last fall. Splurged and went the Springfield 1911 EMP instead. But one of these days, I will go back and pick up a P938. The EMP is a nice carry pistol, but it won’t fit into a pocket.
I’ve bought lots of pistols but my P238 is my go-to carry pistol, I can conceal it easily in shorts and a t-shirt. It makes carrying anything else seem pretty darn inconvenient.
Love my EMP. It’s a .40 so it is a little heavy with the steel frame.
I’ve got a 938. Ideal carry gun for me.
I just ordered a SA 911 today off of Gunbroker.
I got it because my gf scored a HK4 this week and .380 is now a stocked caliber for us.
I was sorely tempted by those Browning 1911 .380s, but not at their prices.

What did these young rubes have to say?
Asked whether he’s an outlier among his liberal classmates, he says:
A majority of kids in my high school are liberal. I do know a few conservative kids. All my teachers are very liberal. Whenever I’m in a class and I share my political opinion, I’m basically the bigot, that’s what I’m called. In my literature class we were reading “1984,” and my teacher compared “1984” to President Trump’s America, and when I refuted that, the class just shut me down.
Damn, sorry, sounds like you probably deserved it, though. I’m sorry, but you’re 15 and you support a guy who’s big thing right now is separating babies from their parents??? This does not compute to me.
Eww, sorry about the failed formatting.

“I thought you were listening to the other side to potentially have your mind changed? Oh well.”
Yes, because your weak sauce snarky ass is so open minded you have to rip on teenagers.

If you are going to “roast” some kids, go for it. Be fucking cruel and funny. Instead she is more like a librarian at a jr. high. Scolding and prudish.

No real company being run by adults would really publish this right?
Obviously someone didn’t understand that unlimited immigration was one of the central themes of 1984.
Katherine Krueger, Managing Editor, Splinter has a child’s grasp of life without the imagination. She’s also a boring writer.
Abortion has long been an issue that social conservatives feel a moral imperative to oppose, and one in which liberals have largely ceded any perceived moral high ground. (It’s a messaging failure, not one of ideology!) But if college freshmen start trying to tell me that Jesus said “Thou shalt have lots of guns,” I’ll swiftly lose my mind.
immorality of abortion is a messaging failure. got it.
I’d like someone to ask her which parts of the progressive platform have been actual moral failures, not just messaging failures. I suspect I know her answer.
Those 100 million dead had it coming.
They stood in the way of progress. Was it the communists’ fault the Kulaks, saboteurs, and wreckers didn’t want to live in utopia?
SIGNIFICANT messaging failure.
Did Jesus ever say thou shall disarm thyself in the face of evil?
You can beat your swords into plowshares, if you wish, but you are going to wind up plowing the fields for those who kept their swords.
The only time was when the disciples wanted to go down fighting, but Jesus wanted to go to the cross peacefully.
“…a guy who’s big thing right now is separating babies from their parents???”
“No dumbass, Obama isnt president anymore and in any case I never supported him.” should be his response, but then he is 15. Hopefully this experience will cement his will.
I’m not surprised in the least.
I enjoyed the comment that because it’s still possible to get a gun, no matter how difficult it might be, nobody’s rights have been infringed.
From people who think their right to get an abortion is infringed if a minor is required to get permission from a parent.
And a photo ID to vote.
and my teacher compared “1984” to President Trump’s America
Your fuckwad teacher should be keeping his/her political opinions to him/herself. Also, and as already stated, way to miss the point of the entire story portrayed in ‘1984’.
– Blind obedience to an all-encompassing, all-intrusive state.
– Overt manipulation of history, media, and language to conform to a political agenda.
I mean, if that doesn’t scream “Republican” to you then I just don’t know what to say!

Article idea: home security systems?
Yes, when you are home with an intruder it helps to be armed, but what about when one is away?
I have SimpliSafe and I like it.
Does it come with a camera? I have a really cheap Chinese camera hooked right in to my router. It sends me pictures of my empty house when the light changes each day, and usually fails to capture me or my guests coming and going. But hey, no monthly fee.
“Lucky Magic Rock Security System”
Would read if it was about constructing lethal traps.
“What about when one is away?”
Woof!
I had ADT but their monthly fees got outrageous. I dropped the monitoring and added a card into the alarm controller that allows me to do the monitoring myself now. Keep the signs in the yard, because that’s what does 99% of the work of the alarm system.
United Airlines providing free flights for separated Illegals:
United Airlines revealed the company will provide complimentary flights to families who were separated as they illegally crossed over the United States border.
United is partnering with FWD.us, an advocacy group known for defending illegal immigrant rights, which made the announcement Wednesday.
In a statement on Facebook, FWD.us welcomed United to the partnership and thanked the airline for joining the ‘Flights For Families’ campaign. The effort is working to reunite parents that have been separated from their children when they were detained illegally hopping the border. United will be donating flights to rejoin the families. (RELATED: Delta, United Scrap Discounts For NRA Members)
“A growing community of support is coming together to reunite families who were separated at the border. We are so thankful and happy to announce that United Airlines is jumping in and helping,” FWD.us’s statement read. “Thanks to this partnership with United, we are able to provide travel to the recently reunited immigrant families to get to their next destination with dignity.
http://dailycaller.com/2018/07/27/united-airlines-free-flights-illegal-immigrants/
So, what; Open Societies Foundation offered them a shitload of money to do this? It’s hard to see this being a positive business decision otherwise.
Marketing guy: Did you see how many retweets we got on this!?!
Finance guy: *thumbs edge of letter opener*
Any large business seems to be totally prog kneelers at this point. The airlines dumped the travel discount to the annual NRA meeting, then they quickly came out that they weren’t going to sell seats to ICE for moving illegals, now they’re providing free seats for illegal reunions.
For ultimate irony, try to board an international flight without a passport or visa if required at the destination.
Awesome. There must be some obnoxious prog-hatin’ youtuber out there willing to film that.
You are kidding me right?
Who else would you pick to fly people to places they might not want to go. United is the logical choice
Wait until they try to find their luggage at the carousel.

I like to think that picture is of Chicago dragging him back…
Well. I’m inclined to say the have suffered enough from their own poor decision making. I mean, inflicting United on anyone seems a little severe.
As much as they want to they aren’t going to be able to import a zillion commie votes, at least not for another six years.
Are they flying them back to their home countries?

Almost three decades ago in the depths of a recession a certain job in government came up right when first wife and I needed a salary and insurance. I’d learn a lot and leave in a year…..at the very first opportunity.
The various agencies in that city’s government met monthly, ostensibly to organize and manage projects for safety, quality, cost, and time. I eventually stopped attending because my interest in codifying the details (oh, you know: timeline and milestones and who’s doing what sort of stuff) was thought to be kidstuff and too much trouble and not knowable or manageable.
I still rage whenever I remember the many elective utility jobs that we installed (buried) AFTER a road had just been freshly re-surfaced. The easiest thing in the world is to reschedule the paving to after the installation…..so you get to keep that sweet, sweet asphalt smooth as can be for at least a year or so before it needs cutting into for whatever subterranean reason.
I would like to testify that the private sector is infinitely more thoughtful along these lines but………
oh well
“People are asking us if we shadow ban. We don’t.”
https://twitter.com/shoe0nhead/status/1022811775480340480
IOW, their tweets don’t show up on your timeline, which is what most people mean when they say “shadow ban”, but it’s not actually a shadow ban because we just defined shadow ban differently, so STFU.
which is what most people mean when they say “shadow ban”
I’d wager most people have no idea what they mean when they say ‘shadow ban’, they just know that it’s bad and SJW websites do it to Milo and Jordan Petterson!!!?!!
“Mayonnaise Is the Most Controversial Ice Cream Flavor”
https://www.foodandwine.com/syndication/mayonnaise-ice-cream-scotland
“Controversial” implies that there are people who actually like it.
It’s Scotland.
Whale Ice Cream begs to differ.
It isnt controversial at all.
Baby harp seal ice cream is more controversial.
What Gwyneth Paltrow isnt selling vagina flavored ice cream?
She’s still trying to figure out how to steam it without melting it.
You couldn’t make some inoffensive fetus-in-a-blender joke, you had to assault our sensibilities with this?
“A growing community of support is coming together to reunite families who were separated at the border. We are so thankful and happy to announce that United Airlines is jumping in and helping,” FWD.us’s statement read. “Thanks to this partnership with United, we are able to provide travel to the recently reunited immigrant families to get to their next destination with dignity.
Will they be flying them back to their point of origin?
I still rage whenever I remember the many elective utility jobs that we installed (buried) AFTER a road had just been freshly re-surfaced.
Back when I lived in Colorado Springs, this happened so frequently it was hard to believe it was unintentional.
Every time the city did a major resurface job on a street, the gas company would show up about two weeks later and start digging trenches from one side to the other about every fifty feet.
This is the journalism that is apparently dying:
Home Depot’s Discrimination, Harassment, Low Pay, and Poor Management, By The Numbers
Hundreds of Home Depot employees wrote to us to describe their struggles with low pay, coldhearted or incompetent management, union busting, harassment, dangerous working conditions, and much, much more.
Though we ran four separate installments of excerpts from those messages, we only published a very small fraction of the emails we received. To leave it there would be a waste of many heartfelt stories. So we decided to analyze the 212 substantive emails we received (the ones containing enough specific information to categorize, out of 600 total emails) in order to give you with a quantified picture of life at “Big Orange.”
212 employees from a company that employs nearly half a million have given us everything we need to know.
212 self-selected employees responding to a call for grievances.
They make it sound like they’re forced to work there and that they’re entitled to more.
It’s all stupid this.
I’d be more impressed if the paper ran the content of their own employee suggestion boxes.

Feminist sure do love their drama queen antics.

I’m so sick of hearing about the Handmade’s Tale. Yeah, women are totally oppressed by a puritanical patriarchy just like in the books. *sprains an eye muscle from rolling eyes so hard*
I keep hearing about it but didn’t know what it was until I read that. Yeah, owning slaves is right around the corner again too. The only slave masters are the government and who wants the government to have more money and power.
Any the puritanical cultural enslavement is coming from the left, not the religious right. Projection, all projection.
*And
Yeah exactly.
Pretty much this. Speech codes? The left. Prosecution for drunken hookups? The left. Destroying people’s careers for their views? The left.
Well, if and when it happens, I hope we all get one of Q’s “handmaiden” candidates and not some Lena Dunham type.
Everyone I know who watches that show is convinced we are one week away from real life being just like it.
Do you mercilessly troll them?
“Fact: Anyone who obsesses about something this much secretly wants it.”
can confirm. You have no idea the number of feminist women who are in the kink scene and whose most heart-felt desire is to be naked, collared and leashed, and kneeling in front of a bearded man who plans to use them roughly.
Go on…
Hmmm, I have a beard…
And where might one meet these women?
Which is utterly and totally retarded. Look, I can get when the play came out. The religious right, at least its modern incarnation, was a new thing. And it had made huge moves in politics and society at large in a relatively short period of time. Someone who was an urban feminist could undoubtedly look at the developments and think “Holy shit! These people really do want to throw me back into the kitchen, barefoot and pregnant!”.
But that was more than thirty fucking years ago. The religious right, as a political movement, is mostly pretty much spent. We’ve actually had a president very sympathetic to them. And there’s simply no there there. Socons are proposing women be given second class status as citizens. Heck, your average socon voter is as likely to be a woman as a man. There’s enough evangelicals and people you’d call the religious right that a reasonably worldly, educated person would probably know at least one or two. And, for the most part, they’re just normal people who vote their conscience and are trying, pretty much like the rest of us to get by. Seriously, does any rational person even entertain the idea that we’re within hours of a dictatorship by the people fighting to get to decide which customers they want?
Cripes. Edit twice before posting. Should read “WHAT socons are…”
Reminds me a lot of Alan Moore (and a few other folks since) obsession with a radically conservative UK government (V for Vendetta, etc) – eternally spooked by the ghost of Thatcher. They just can’t let it go.
Yeah, socons at this point seem to have retreated to a position of “okay fine, just leave me alone,” which of course the left refuses to do.
Seriously, does any rational person even entertain the idea that we’re within hours of a dictatorship by the people fighting to get to decide which customers they want?
These same people think Trump is Hitler incarnate but also want Trump to disarm them. Do you think they really ‘think’?
I don’t recall the religious right getting many laws passed.
Interesting take on how most ostensible “political controversies” these days are not political at all.
Majority of Democrats favor giving illegal aliens the right to vote.

And this is not retarded and treasonous because….?
They live locally. This is just for local stuff. They pay for it, why shouldn’t they vote on it. It’s just local.
Certainly they won’t be slipped a federal and state ballot. Why, the very thought!
Although, they live in the state and federation, and pay for them, too…
MUH PURMANENT MAJORITTYYY!!!!!!!
I would absolutely support this, if my goal was to instantly and thoroughly demolish the legitimacy of whatever government allowed it. I honestly think it might be enough to make a critical mass of people throw their hands up in the air and say “fuck it, I’m out”. Said government would be wise to make sure the citizenry are disarmed first if they’re still expecting compliance.
Im not sure why at this point they just don’t grant automatic US citizenship to the World.
Have we polled that? I’m guessing it’s at most a few points behind.
Because then the Russians would steal the election.
Why should they have to live in the borders. The whole world should get a ballot.
A conundrum
Having reached political awareness during Barack Obama’s administration, Emma Tehrani, a 23-year-old law student from Phoenix, thought the United States was on an irreversible path toward greater tolerance of differences in race, religion, and sexual preference. Then, the election happened. “I think a lot of people my age viewed the progress of the country as linear,” she said. “So it was definitely somewhat shocking.” Vanessa Guerrero, a 28-year-old from Los Angeles working in customer service, was equally blindsided. “I didn’t think people would actually believe him,” she told me. “I’m just in shock, and months later it hits home even more because I’m Mexican and my parents are immigrants.”
———-
It may well be the safest course for Democrats to choose a 2020 nominee whose primary strength is their ability to reassure older and mostly white Americans who vote reliably, but do not reliably support Democrats. A strategy focused on mobilizing less consistent, but more liberal, younger and nonwhite voters would likely require Democrats to accept some vanguard policy positions that could rattle swing voters. Signs at the L.A. rally, for example, called for abolishing the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, and speakers occasionally railed against the “imperialist, white supremacist … patriarchy.” That’s not a program, or tone, designed to soothe suburban voters outside Philadelphia or Charlotte.
Whom do the Democrats appeal to, a bunch of ignorant, emotional, ahistorical children, or the people who are likely to show up and vote?
I have a suspicion.
Emotionalism, FTW!
I’m almost sympathetic because I thought too that we had fulfilled MLK’s dream of a colorblind society, until the rase hustlers & grievance mongers, supported by the last idiot for the past eight years, set things back 40+ years. Except that those bigots were almost exclusively from the left and not surprising since their whole ideology is built on evil.
Also, “path toward greater tolerance”. Hah! Those leftist authoritarians thugs will never be satisfied with mere tolerance. Forceful & enthusiastic support is necessary. First one to stop clapping gets shot and all that.
It’s odd how to her “American” is an arbitrary distinction that doesn’t refer to borders or citizenship, but Mexican has a definitive meaning.
Then, the election happened.
Her Shrillness forgot to drink her hot sauce before calling adolescent black men “super-predators”.
That’s not a program, or tone, designed to soothe suburban voters outside Philadelphia or Charlotte.
Quick! Everyone put the masks back on!!
Oooohhh…horizontal lines…wow….edgy…
A chance to hate everyone: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=12094539
Basically Matt Lauer is complaining that the NZ government is changing the rules on him when it comes to providing an easement through his land to public lands. There’s heapin’ helpin’s of “public access to public land” crap. But Lauer claims that “”I believe the groups that are behind this are in some ways unfortunately taking advantage of some difficult times I’ve been through over the past six months and I think they see me as an easy mark.” Yeah, asshole, you’re the one who’s been through difficult times.
“Difficult Times” = outted as a fucking creep. Hold on, let me find my violin Matt.
The rule of law should apply even to creeps.
No arguments here. His self pity is palpable though and the irony delicious. Try as I might I can’t muster any sympathy for him even if the public land people are dead-wrong.
Matt, surely you see that any action taken by any government is, by definition, for the greater good.
The greater good!
“I bought land in a country without strong private property rights, now they are fucking with my private property.”
No shit?
The irony is lost on him.
‘Difficult times’ entirely of his own doing one might add.
At least we know where in the world he is now.
To combat this expansion of power, H.R. 1689 would make any state or locality that uses the economic development justification for eminent domain ineligible from receiving federal economic development funds for two years. This creates a major incentive for governments to respect the private property rights of its citizens.
While you’re at it, could you end the Federal economic development funds too?
It will die in the Senate.
“The Plastic Straw Ban Sucks”
https://www.newsweek.com/ben-shapiro-plastic-straw-ban-opinion-1045589
Had a sweaty 9 mile run, a good shower, and just woke up from an hour long nap. It’s a good day.
Dinner will be 1.5” bone-in pork chops fried in bacon fat on the flat top, and a simple chopped romaine salad with a little shredded cabbage, sliced red pepper, pickled red onion, shredded cheddar, and crumbled bacon, dressed in a sour cream ranch dressing.
Sparkling lemonade, no booze. Giving the liver the weekend off.
Completely phoning in the entire day. Chicken stir fry with garden vegetables tonight. And yes, there will be booze.
Pretty remarkable burgers, our first fresh tomatoes of the year, grilled asparagus, and some bubbly.
That’s not a burger.
SP says it’s disturbingly real (the Beyond Burger). I would love to have your opinion after trying one since I obviously don’t know.
Ribeye and red wine. Already had enough red wine thatI’m saying “vegetables, shemegtables, meats good enough for me”. I’m gonna eat a ripe mango for desert.

I received my Whiskey Rebellion Flag (thanks Amazon) and its flying proudly from my porch. I like it, obscure enough that my landlords prog wife and friends won’t know what it is, but it gets the point across to anyone who does; Fuck taxes and fuck the Federal Government. Makes me smile.
Note to self: follow Bob’s lead
I like this. Looks patriotic (and is patriotic).
Which one of the Amazon flags did you get? The ones I found all seemed to be cheap construction that wouldn’t hold up any longer than the original rebellion did.
I got this cheapie:

For $5.95 I’ll just buy another next year if it doesn’t hold up. It looks nice enough fluttering in the wind.
It’ll last at least 3 years, if you rotate out your Flags at all, I fly six different flags, and it works out for me

“NEA signals full withdrawal from suburban and rural school districts.”

The only thing interesting about this is how the Daily Beast cooks up stories by finding older clickbait tidbits online, and refreshing them to make it seem like they’re discovering something new.

““Even the Black Knight is a white man,” said Prof. Pheare M. Unger by email. “Not only is that false advertising, but it’s representative of the white male-dominated Eurocentrism that has come to plague Renaissance Faires nationwide.””
WTF??
OK, that article is parody. But I don’t think the Daily Beast article is.
someone quoted the DB story. they mention the same “professor”
So, I assume this means that now Rachael Maddow and Whoopi Goldberg will be taking over as the prime time anchors of Fox News? Not like I care, since I don’t watch TV.

Superhero movies would be so much better if they were R-rated.
Watchmen, Blade I, II, III, Deadpool – 2 out of five is about the same batting average as the family friendly offerings.
Watchmen was the best superhero movie.
It does mean that a lot of Fox stuff that used to be on Netflix will now only be available on Disney’s own streaming platform.
No, but since Fox currently owns the rights to M*A*S*H, it does mean Cpl. Maxwell Q. Klinger is now a Disney princess.
So Radar is Doopy?

Fox News isn’t part of the deal.

Marginalizing and isolating large numbers of the population rarely works well in the long term. Keep pushing people towards feeling like they have nothing left to lose. This will end well.
Nah, what’s wrong with you, shitlord?, offending 50% of your customer base is the best business practice ever.
Nobody they know voted for Trump.
Being attractive and not a brainless sheep is definitely 3 strikes and you’re out to the left.
I work in a retail environment, and on average deal with about 120 customers a day. The ones that come into my shop ranting against Trump and his supporters are invariably the ugliest people. That, and they can barely manage the complex transaction of mailing a letter. They’re usually dumb. If they aren’t dumb, they usually have mental problems. I’m pretty sure a good number of them are drunk or high, in the early afternoon. Oh, and they’ll complain about the price of a fucking postage stamp; because they’re poor. Ugly people, ugly souls. Losers.
Anecdotal, but definitely a trend.
I’ve worked in this neighborhood shop for 3 years, so I know these lefty creeps pretty well. A good number are straight up degenerates. Horrible people. Sick minds, sick bodies.
In contrast, most of the TDS people I know are PhDs or at least very educated. However, they are also intellectually lazy and cowardly when it comes to politics and would rather just go along to get along than to put themselves into an uncomfortable position. Guys like Jordan Peterson are heroes with balls of steel. You really have to be in one of these environments to appreciate that.
i don’t understand any of this.
that said: go ahead, bitch about twitter and facebook interfering with your shit. just don’t go crying for the govt to get involved and idgaf
i think the shadowbanning/throttling stuff is interesting, but mainly as a technical matter to expose and mock them over. i think they’ll eventually learn that a more hands-off approach is in their own interests. but who knows.
No, they will not learn. Once you’ve let the left in the door, it’s all over, it’s a fatal disease and there’s no cure except burn to ashes.
As time goes on, I more & more think the Romanians had the right idea with Ceausescu. They fucked up a lot else from Pie’s comments, but they got that one right.
On 25 December, after being tried and convicted of economic sabotage and genocide, they were immediately executed by firing squad, and Ceaușescu was succeeded as President by Ion Iliescu, who had played a major part in the revolution. Capital punishment was abolished shortly thereafter.
Well, that’s convenient.
Eventually some smart person is going to vie for these jilted consumers.
For me, this is a thing of great frustration. Surely, some wrong thinker, like Peter Thiel has the damn money to spin up some serious alternative media. I ever remember him talking about an effort. How do these fucking leftist shits have such a hold on media?
They don’t, good god man, Fox News, Breitbart, World Net Daily, Human Events, Townhall, Red State, etc…and I’m not even going to get into talk radio. The ‘leftist shits’ have a hold on ‘media’ in the same way Budweiser has a hold on ‘beer’. Yes they may have a large market share but that’s by the choice of the consumers. No one is forced to drink Bud Light (thank God) or watch CNN, bitching because a lot of people chose to is childish.
Sure, and they don’t have any type monopoly on education either. Sorry, but most people still get their news from the alphabet media, or CNN. That is changing, but slowly, the leftist media still have a tremendous amount of power.

or they’ll create technical ways to make the methods the FB/Twitter/YT’s of the world more difficult.
the first step is knowing their algorithms (provided that’s the primary m.o.); the second step is fucking with them.
that said, the creepy thing YT did was hire an elite-class of “Super-Censors” which was naturally staffed with a bunch of asshole-progs and orgs like SPLC.
but the best way to fight those people is to simply expose their existence and make them targets of mockery. destroy their credibility.

Costco replaces Polish dog with acai bowls
“Man, we aren’t moving these acai bowls, we’re seeing a fraction of the revenue that we used to get from our prepared foods section……people just must not be as hungry”
Not as hawt as I expected. Also, that last pic tells me she may be doing it wrong. *New Yorker but still NSFW
Feelings Irish whiskey is very good. That is all.
Teelings that is. Fuxx auto correct.
Dont write a poem or limmerick, please.
No chance of that. Maybe a Haiku
Wo wo wo feelings?
My proggie friend is trying to tell me he is a libertarian socialist. I have googled the term and I am still very confused. Can anyone explain this idea to an asshat?
“People should be free to do what we say”
He’s a socialist that wants to dilute the meaning. Kinda like lite beer.
I’m heterosexual male that likes sucking off other guys.
he wants to have the choice of washing the people’s truck or build the people’s bridge.
uhm, hello? you’re genderqueer
Yes: Your proggie friend is a dumbass.
“My proggie friend is trying to tell me he is a libertarian socialist.”
I can explain it. Oxymoron = David Weigel.
Tell your confused friend that those two terms are irreconcilable and then slap some sense into him if needed.
Nuff said.
You can’t slap sense into people. The best you can hope for is to knock the stupid out of them.
libertarian socialist
Chomsky peddles this crap. I figure they treat this like they do “democratic socialist”. They think adding the modifier “democratic” makes “socialism” ok.
The ‘Democratic Socialism’ bullshit is the recently most annoying shit ever. Getting slapped about as usual, the progs most recent defense is (I mean, you don’t even know what socialism is, has stopped working I suppose), it’s not socialism, it’s democratic socialism, totally not the same thing! Sure it’s not, just like communism, socialism, collectivism, progressivism, etc, etc, are not the same thing. Sweden is better than the USA because they have Democratic Socialism! Sure they do and sure they are, then move there. What’s stopping you?
If you think you can redistribute wealth and still have civil liberties.
You just need the right people, it will work this time. All we need is a wild eyed, wild haired aging commie and a wide eyed clueless bartender from NYC to make it happen.
This is definitely where I am getting stuck reading the wikipedia article he sent me to.
Their first principles don’t include property right protections. Lower left quadrant of the Nolan chart. Your inherent rights as a human being do not include the fruit of your labor, but you have a right not to be spied on, a fair trial, free speech etc…
“Libertarian socialism (sometimes called social anarchism,[91][92] left-libertarianism[93][94] and socialist libertarianism[95]) is a group of anti-authoritarian[96] political philosophies inside the socialist movement that rejects socialism as centralized state ownership and control of the economy[97] including criticism of wage labour relationships within the workplace,[98] as well as the state itself.[99] It emphasizes workers’ self-management of the workplace[99] and decentralized structures of political organization,[100] asserting that a society based on freedom and equality can be achieved through abolishing authoritarian institutions that control certain means of production and subordinate the majority to an owning class or political and economic elite.[101] Libertarian socialists generally place their hopes in decentralized means of direct democracy and federal or confederal associations[102] such as libertarian municipalism, citizens’ assemblies, trade unions, and workers’ councils.[103][104] All of this is generally done within a general call for libertarian[105] and voluntary human relationships[106] through the identification, criticism, and practical dismantling of illegitimate authority in all aspects of human life.[107][108][109][110][111][112][113][114] As such libertarian socialism, within the larger socialist movement, seeks to distinguish itself both from leninism/bolchevism and from social democracy.[115]”

It’s always a rejection of freedom of association or of private property. Or, in this case, both.
Leninism without the brutality. Lol.
