Before Rufus gets a chance to ask the question: yes, some of us DO work. One of those people is apparently Brett. I guess getting loaded on cocaine and blowing strangers is just for fun. In his absence, I’ll be providing links. If someone posted something earlier, I apologize. I haven’t been paying attention.
- Cody Wilson’s no good, very bad day. I want to believe this guy has been caught up in a plot to “neutralize” him, but he seems to have set served himself up on a silver platter by signing up for a site called
SugarDaddyMeet, exchanging nudes with a minor (article says the girl was *under* 17 the age of consent in Texas [you’re welcome for keeping you off a list by looking it up for you]), and then hiring her for sex. The bragging about being “a big deal” may not have been helpful either. - I’m sure all of you nerds have already seen that Linus Torvalds–father of Linux–is taking a breather so that he can think about not being a dick to a group of people volunteering their time. In the wake of this there’s now a code of conduct, which has of course been immediately decried as the SJWification of the Linux kernel. I’m currently fantasizing about Buddhist monastic life.
- Normally, this story would have me glancing at the headline and moving on, but how can I resist linking to a story with the phrase “rape by use of drugs, oral copulation by anesthesia or controlled substance”. The surgeon in question is relatively pretty, and I can guarantee his near future will include rigorous training on the value of consent.
- I assume this is just fake news meant to fluff The Meg, but it’s still neat. “the males would each travel in a V-shape pattern as many as 140 times a day. It’s unclear if the behavior is related to mating or if they are hunting for different species of fish.”
Speaking of unfortunate interactions between adults and minors, Mr. Michael Aliperti threatened to shoot an 11 year old who beat him at Fortnight and got arrested for it. Mr. Aliperti should fix a cup of chamomile and take a long hard look at where life has taken him.
Our user engagement analytics department indicates that we need more Minnesota content, so…here
Is it wrong that I’m amused because my replacement UPS arrive via UPS?
Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom–the Uninterruptible Parcel Service.
Damn… I didn’t realize how much stuff was plugged into that UPS. It’s all low-wattage gear, but still.
As I was corpse-fucking the previous links thread, I’ll throw this down here:
Cody is fucked. Lay-down conviction for statutory rape. He’s going to do felony time, be a registered sex offender, and never be allowed near another gun in his life. What a shame.
It may have been a set up. But he’s the one who walked into that trap. Like RC said. He is well and truly fucked.
Unless the police affidavit is a complete tissue of lies (always a possibility!), he wasn’t even set up.
Yeah the police affidavit could be completely accurate and it would still be a setup.
How hard would it be for certain entities with complete control to monitor any electronic traffic anywhere in the world at any time to note his account on a sugardaddy site, find an impressionable your girl in need that matches Cody’s type, have her message him and encourage said messaging to lead to a sexual encounter and then report it.
It doesn’t excuse him for falling for the bait but it is still a setup.
Also, if not a setup he has to be one of the dumbest men on the face of the planet to not realize that if he ever did ANYTHING even remotely illegal he was going to do hard time for it
Pretty much this. He should not have even considered banging any chicks that looked under 30. And even then he should demand a background check.
IANAL, but what if he could prove entrapment?
I don’t think its possible to show that you were entrapped into fucking a 16 year old. Its pretty well established that it doesn’t matter if they lie about their age, you are still going to do the time for fucking a 16 year old.
You know what’s the leading cause of statutory rape?
Sexy, sexy teenagers.
“I pleads insanity!”
“Yeah, I’m just crazy about that stuff!”

^^THIS^^
Also it may be a 51-year-old police detective posing as a minor girl and you’ll still be arrested and convicted.
I still don’t see how that’s a crime given that an actual under-aged girl is not involved. They will get you for sleeping with an actual under-aged girl even if she lies about her age so you think she is off age and they will get you for thinking you are soliciting an under-aged girl when you are actually soliciting an adult. Shit is backwards.
“I have really pissed off multiple levels of government and got dragged to courts. I think it’s perfectly safe to hire a prostitute. Certainly no one is vindictively monitoring my communications, waiting for a slipup.”
I get being on the spectrum, but at some point, it’s just too much.
All I thought when I read it was “You fucking idiot.”
It is a shame. I mirror what Suthen said; he’s a good looking guy, he’s semi-famous (at least in some circles) he should have no trouble at all picking up as many girls as his appetite demands. I don’t know why he was trolling Sugar Daddy website for hookers. It probably was a setup, but he left himself wide open to it.
It probably was a setup
Not looking like it. The story in the affidavit is that the li’l skank told her counselor after the fact, who told the police. Quite plausible, really.
He must not read the news. These kids always tell someone.
Even if it’s 35 years later and he’s running for political office.
You are assuming he knew she was underage
Does. Not. Matter. Right or wrong, there isn’t a dude over 21 who doesn’t know that it is his responsibility to verify AOC.
I had meant that as a reply to RBS’s comment about the kids always telling someone.
While I agree in our fucked up legal system that his knowledge about her age is irrelevant worrying about whether the kid will say anything is only relevant if he knew or suspected she was underage.
Guess the printed poon wasn’t cutting it.
You can’t print silicone (does a quick search to make sure that’s still true, looks like it is). You have to either print the mold directly, or do lost investment casting with something like ABS.
With an on-topic post out of the way, my prediction on Kavanaugh:
He withdraws. The tactic of baseless smears put forward in the most transparently partisan way will be validated and thus repeated. The Dem minority will be in charge of confirming all SCOTUS appointments going forward, and likely lower court appointments as well because there is no reason baseless and unverifiable accusations can’t be brought against any nominee. A huge opportunity to get some not-terrible judges on SCOTUS and the federal courts will be lost because of the idiocy and cowardice of the Republican Senators.
The Swamp wins again.
“The Dem minority will be in charge of confirming all SCOTUS appointments going forward”
So nothing really changes
The Repubs were actually keeping control of this process, until Flake fucked them by saying he wouldn’t vote Kavanaugh out of the committee until they had another hearing on Ford’s accusations. As near as I can tell, this is 100% Flake’s doing – I think Grassley was going to hold the vote as scheduled tomorrow until Flake stabbed him in the back.
Flake is just trying to ensure that he doesn’t have to take a vote that will endanger his job as an MSNBC correspondent. But, of course, Flake is libertarian-y af (meaning he’s cool with war, spending, and the Patriot Act, but he #Resists hard and likes managed trade, ergo beltway libertarian fawn over him)
Are you sure about Flake? Didn’t he get what he wanted when the hearing was scheduled for Monday?
If they have to have extra hearings, they should do it Supreme Court style with no cameras and just a transcript. Take away TEAM BLUE’S chance to grandstand.
“WHAT ARE THEY HIDING?!”
Susan Collins actually has a good idea.
Two enter (with their legal representation) and then the lawyers for each combatant get to ask questions of each combatant.
But no cameras would be a great idea.
Needs more Thunderdome
Do you really want to see Kamala Harris dressed up in a blond wig and big hoop earrings?
Do you really want to see Kamala Harris dressed up in a blond wig and big hoop earrings?
Might be an improvement.
Here is why the lawyers doing the questioning is such a brilliant idea.
The opportunity to capture a bunch of Republican Senators on camera questioning her about her accusations was part of the Trap. Not only were they going to get a chance at Borking the nominee, they were going to get free campaign commercials about the war on women.
Her story is so weak that some pretty minimal and gentle questioning should be enough to get the job done.
Do you recall where the alleged attack occurred? [No]
Do you recall when the alleged attack occurred? [No]
Did you mention it to anybody before you told your counselor in 2006? [No]
You are a clinical psychologist. I understand that it is a routine part of training to undergo counseling, is that correct? [Yes]
Did you undergo counseling as a psychology student? [Yes]
Did you tell the counselors about this alleged attack during those sessions? [No]
No further questions.
…is this a trick question?
Would she be wearing anything else?
I thought the age of constitutional amendments was over, but I am pretty convinced that an amendment to move the Senate to a parliamentary system, with a coversheet that starts out “Wherein it has been determined that I don’t want to deal with you fuckheads any more…” would get.. I don’t know 98 votes maybe.
I’m not sure, “stout denial” (as Wodehouse puts it) may serve in that it is unlikely anyone can come forth with anything to corroborate her side of this. Remember the Anita Hill allegations were much more recent for Clarence Thomas and didn’t help the opponents.
Is Kavanaugh lying? I don’t know (and neither do you). If the allegations are true, then admitting he got carried away after a few too many might not cost him too highly. IOW, why deny it at all? Unless, possibly, it never happened?
My problem is, I don’t see the Repubs in the Senate having the balls to go the “stout denial” route. They are going to crumble after a week of orchestrated bad press, mark my words.
It doesn’t matter either way; like you said, all it takes is Flake deciding to die on this hill (not even really die since he’s retiring anyway, and this will all but guarantee him a cherry gig at CNN) and it’s all over. Grassley et. al. could spontaneously grow gonads but Flake’s defection would torpedo the whole process.
Unless they can peel a D away. Like one running for re-election in a conservative state like North Dakota. Unfortunately, this allegation does give Heitkamp some cover to vote no, but there is ton of pressure on her to vote yes if she want to go back to DC next year.
The problem is passing him out of committee. If Flake goes thumbs down, the nomination dies before it ever gets to open Senate.
Ahh…yeah. Well, I’ll think of something else. Once I start drinking.
I’m under the impression from talk radio that Grassley can move it out of committee with or without a vote.
Part of my point is that the Republicans di stand fast for Clarence Thomas and the onslaught was much stronger than anything the Democrats have now.
The fact is, what do they have? Some woman who remembers(??) that a drunk seventeen-year-old K grabbed her boobies and felt her up and said he wanted to fuck her her up nearly forty years ago, and didn’t, in fact, do anything else.
First, I don’t know why he would ever deny it, unless he simply doesn’t remember it? Considering the audience judging him, I think they would be mostly men, who were once teenage boys and can remember either doing something like this or wanting to and women, who were once teenage girls and having to deal with the assholes who were teenage boys. How anyone reacts is going to largely depend on ideology rather on how any comparable incident actually affected them. The one exception is how they reacted to the guilt and shame of the whole thing.
I suspect that for most people this will not reflect badly on Kavanaugh.
Part of my point is that the Republicans did stand fast for Clarence Thomas and the onslaught was much stronger than anything the Democrats have now.
I think the current crop of Republicans are a weaker crew than the ones in 1990.
He was drunk, it was 35 years ago, and if her story is true it was obviously nowhere near as big an event for him as it was for her so even if she is telling the truth he may legitimately have no memory of the event
“I assure you, sir, that I remember every woman that I have sexually assaulted, and I did not assault Ms. Ford. Even as a 17 year old, I had standards, you know.”
“Have you seen photos of her at that age? She had a nose wide enough to make Barbara Streisand jealous. I mean, maybe if I was reeeeealy drunk and she was the only female within 100 miles and she was wearing a bag over her head. A very large bag. Maybe. But, at that time, the metropolitan area was suffering no shortage of much better-looking women. And goats too, for that matter.”
If I were Cocaine Mitch, I would have held the vote today. Since it’s Yom Kippur, based on this list:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Jewish_American_politicians#Current_senators
the Republicans would have the vote. Just like Article II, Section 2, paragraph 2 of the United States Constitution doesn’t say anything about being held up by bullshit 11th hour accusations, it also doesn’t say anything about Jewish holidays.
Also happy holiday (((glibs))) (although it doesn’t sound like a particularly fun holiday).
I thought Flake said if she chooses not to testify, then will vote to confirm ?? I just read that last night. And the gal said she won’t testify without a full FBI investigation.
I think Roy Moore already validated this tactic and enshrined it’s regular use moving forward by the Left.
Moore didn’t lose because of the accusations. He lost because the establishment GOP turned on him and actively campaigned against him just like Flake turned traitor here. I believe the vote total for Moore plus the last minute GOPe challenger was more than enough to beat the Dem opponent.
The accusations are not targeted to appeal to the populace, they’re targeted to appeal to the GOPe.
Roy Moore I think was guilty as sin. He had multiple accusers who repeated similar stories with corroboration from others. This woman has some vague story from over thirty years ago that she never talked about until 2012. She can’t recall where the incident occurred, when it occurred, and who actually witnessed it. The only two people that she has named as being witnesses to the incident say they know nothing about what she’s talking about.
This is basically a smear repackaged as a credible accusation.
They were 30-40 year old accusations and several of the accusers were funded by Dem Op groups. Maybe some did happen, but the veracity makes no difference to the game plan itself.
My new belief test is if the accuser immediately went to the police after it happened. If not, then I just can’t take any decades old accusations credibly.
My exception to the police report test is if the accused is missing teeth from where the accuser’s father or brother took care of the situation themselves.
So you don’t believe Juanita Broaddrick?
Of course not. Everyone knows #metoo only applies to the Right, and she not only accused a Dem, but the original African American president himself.
If I remember, Roy Moore didn’t do anything illegal, just very very creepy.
“He had multiple accusers who repeated similar stories with corroboration from others. ”
All that takes is a bit of organization.
Also, we know they were lying because of the yearbook bullshit and their lawyer was Gloria Allred.
“fluff The Meg” ??
Please, like you don’t know what I’m talking about 😉

“I Like pretty Outfits”
The new rights deal for the CL games is even worse than last year, which I didn’t think was possible. They really want to force everybody into streaming. (I simply don’t have enough data to do streaming, and can’t get it.)
Cheer up, City is losing.
But yes. I tried streaming with the amazon stick in my office tv. I didn’t get anything, the TNT app just kept freezing.
From what I read, it’s subscription-based.
Oh it is, I was just trying to watch the one fucking game that was not behind a paywall (Madrid/Roma, because at least it’s something). You can also try streaming (I know) with Univision Deportes. Game will be in Spanish, but at least you can watch it without paying anything extra (if you can get data).
Are you guys talking about kickball?
The original football.
I’m surmising that it will get better since the group stage just started. Could be completely wrong, though. Soccer coverage has gone to shit across the board in recent years. I finally broke down and dropped 5 bucks a month on ESPN+ which has a lot of soccer but of course no CL, in English or Spanish….
At least you can watch Ronaldo every week with ESPN+.
Thankfully, there are plenty of Serie A teams I would much rather watch.
Just read that this “Bleacher Report Live” outfit has the complete rights to Champions League and Europa League from 2018 to 2021. Oh well, those competitions were fun while they lasted.
From what I read they have 46 games on TV, which seems to translate to one per timeslot per match day.
Ah. Which means 9 times out of 10 I won’t get to see the teams I want to see.
I use FotMob to listen to games, since I am usually multitasking and not paying enough attention to the TV anyways.
Mr. Michael Aliperti threatened to shoot an 11 year old who beat him at Fortnight and got arrested for it. Mr. Aliperti should fix a cup of chamomile and take a long hard look at where life has taken him.
You’re ostensibly a grown man, Mr Aliperti. Play the real thing instead of kiddified ripoff for remtards on free dinners!
Fucking hell, if PUBG developers shot up the offices of Epic, I’d vote to acquit.
It’s. A. Game. There is no reason to get that worked up over it.
And another reason not to play multiplayer anything.
Fallout 76 with all the griefing and hacking of GTA5. It’s going to be… something.
Lets see… always online, multiplayer only, no real NPCs, plus a whole new digital loader/distribution platform?
That’s seven strikes right there.
And random script kiddies setting off nukes under everyone’s feet.
My understanding is that it will not be an MMO so a lot of these problems are somewhat minimized, especially if whatever player creates the server world can kick and ban any abusive players.
Doesn’t make me want to play it but shithead players might not be the curse they are in every mmo game
The threat of dealing with online assholes in my escapist post-apocalyptic game is enough to avoid it.
Especially since catering to the multiplayer means my actions won’t be able to change anything.
I hate playing online.
Especially something like Madden. Just let me be both offenses and do what I want.

They were a bit tough to swallow for most. Pretty much every time I saw them it was me and 15 others toward the front freaking out and the rest of the audience toward the back of the room looking at each other trying to figure out what the hell was going on.
Damn, that sounds awesome. One of my big regrets is not going to see them live when I had a chance.

If there’s one think I’ve learned since living in MN, its that if you are going to say that you are playing music from MN it better damn well be Prince. Otherwise you just call it “music.”

Isn’t overrated Bob Dylan from Duluth?
No. Born in Minneapolis. Died in Chanhassen, which when said correctly is even more Minesoten than Minneapolis.
Bob is still alive. You’re talking about Prince.
I thought he was using Overrated Bob Dylan as a pet name for Prince. Why would someone do that? I have no idea.
I didn’t capitalize “overrated”. Dylan is one of the most overrated singers out there, eclipsed by Springsteen.
Dylan does not sing. Dylan whines — sort of on key — but not always.
There is a reason he is called Minnesoda Mudthroat.
His worst sin though is becoming successful as a hobo singer on the streets of Dinkeytown (neighborhood just off THE U of M campus).
Why is that a sin? Because generations of stinky hobos with no talent think the secret to becoming famous is to caterwaul on the streets of Dinkeytown. And I have to hear/listen to them.
Who rates Dylan as a good singer? It’s his songwriting that he’s revered for. Even huge Dylan fans admit the man can’t sing. He’s not exactly considered on a par with Freddie Mercury, or Frank Sinatra.
Bob Dylan died? Is Lou Reed aware of this?
Born in Duluth but raised in Hibbing.

/furious muppet tantrum.
No, I don’t work, because Management filled my calendar with meetings to get status updates on the work that I was otherwise supposed to be doing.
You people have weird jobs.
Management has this compulsion to feel useful, but all they can do is schedule meetings, so they end up delaying completion of the tasks by dragging the technical team out of their work and into meetings.
See, this is why a successful organization has middle managers – to attend the meetings with the upper managers so that the drones can get actual work done.
What do you mean the project is behind schedule?
That’s it! We will now have two status update meetings each day until it is back on track.
Please. I worked until 4am to find a fix to my M$ doesn’t support this thing that is fucking key to CRM in Azure Data Factories, putting me behind with User Testing starting on Monday. I was in a meeting or a call from 8:00 am to 1:30 pm with two half hour breaks. I couldn’t test the fix because the client (rightly) has their Azure environment locked down so they had to provision something for me. I just took a breath between tasks to see what you shitlords are up to. I also gave my manager both barrels I think my words were “I get to chose between working late and delivering late again”. To his vast credit, he is actually a decent facilitator, and cancelled our usual internal hour long call because we implemented a half hour status meeting with client and other vendor this week. And also was very tolerant of me unloading on him. So of course, I’m working even harder to come through and not look like an asshole. But tomorrow, after I sleep some, I’m going to send him the Maker’s Schedule article from the YCombinator guy and say, “that’s why I can code up a fresh solution from scratch in 12 straight hours without meetings but I can’t get my normal work done.”

I see C. Ronaldo got a straight red today. I didn’t see it but I find it interesting that he never (I think) got one before (let alone a second yellow) while at Real Madrid. even though he should have in the past.

Motherfucker. How is that a straight red?
Only adds to my suspicion UEFA/Real have some sort of understanding.
Ramos issued some of the most reckless tackles and they barely ever cautioned him. Ronaldo did worse at Real and was always on the pitch.
Don’t get me going about his offside goals that were allowed.
^More kickball?
I don’t even see an infraction there. Looks like he just pointed at him.
Disclaimer: Ronaldo is a prick.
Yes indeed

I can’t stand him either. At least he moved from one team I refuse to watch to another.

“EXCLUSIVE: Soros-Backed Activists Slip Cash To Anti-Kavanaugh Protesters Before Arrests
Left-wing groups funded by George Soros and other major Democratic donors hand out cash to protesters arrested for disrupting Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings, the activists revealed Monday night.
A coalition of activist organizations including Women’s March, the Center for Popular Democracy (CPD) and Housing Works have scheduled the near-constant disruptions at the Kavanaugh hearings as part of an organized effort to derail the confirmation process in a series of meetings since he was first nominated.
The cash from the donor-funded groups goes toward the protesters’ post-and-forfeit payments — a small cash sum paid to resolve low-level misdemeanor crimes and avoid jail time.”

The Dem rhetoric is so overcooked I’m actually quite surprised that there haven’t been any legit assassination attempts.

” #GamerGate: Where Are They Now?
At the height of #GamerGate, gamers faced mischaracterization as misogynistic monsters by the “allyzone”, a moniker for the male feminist allies of social justice. Years later, many of these men stand accused of stalking, sexual predation and worse.”

I’m convinced that 9 times out of 10, male feminism is a fig leaf for predatory tendencies.
There’s a name for that. Can’t remember it. Same mechanism that leads supporters of big governments to get really quiet when it comes time to make donations to charity.

“A Soros-funded group which is also backed by the New York Times is lobbying YouTube to shut down everyone from Sargon of Akkad to Steven Crowder. This is a transparent abuse of power to shut down competing voices because trust in media has plunged.”

A man is suing the government to force them to recognize that he’s black, as he self-identifies, in order to get in on the DBE program (or, alternatively, abolish it):
It will be interesting to see how this goes, but I’m not hopeful that racial preferences will be ruled racist.
No one would act as a cut out for him?
Uh, one drop rule
I’m going to send this to my buddy who is a federal contractor. He just lost a $750K IT contract to an Asian woman who is newly incorporated with no work history, no employees, no manufacturer certs, and no equipment distribution set up.
She gonna love someone,long time is my bet….
The one drop rule?
you’re late 😉
I go to the box, you know, and I feel shame. And then I get free.
I’ve been saying for a while:
If you can self-identify gender, you can self-identify race. I actually welcome this since it will eventually render meaningless all the intrusive questioning into race by Uncle Sam, gut affirmative action and preclude usage of racial preferences across the board.
DBE is such bullshit. The only experience I have with it is when I interned at a highway design firm and we had to meet with some self-important, otherwise inept and unqualified for any job beyond feeding my cats (maybe not even that) bitch who got to pretentiously check that we and the contractor had made a good-faith effort to hire so-called “disadvantaged businesses”. IOW we had to cross the bureaucratic t’s and dot the bureaucratic lower-case j’s in order for the project to proceed because we can’t just let competition happen, letting businesses live and die on their own.

I know you mentioned last week you did a pistol for your AR 300 BLK build. What brace did you end up using? Which one would you recommend?
I have this and love it.

Cool. Thanks for the info. I am looking at PSA as well, though I was considering the Shockwave instead. How is the recoil on yours?
Minimal. I’ve had several small female shooters try it and they all liked it.
Nice. I might have to reconsider. I’ve read good stuff about the SOB and it’s rubber so likely more comfortable than the Shockwave when you’re… cheek welding.
It’s very comfortable and useful.
It came with the brace and it works well.
Update on Cody Wilson: a friend of the 16-year old (confirmed age) sex worker tipped him off to the bust so he skipped his flight back to the US and is now in Taiwan.
We did it!! Finally, LIBERTARIANS HAVE OUR ROMAN POLANSKI!!!!!!! Or was our Polanski already McAfee?
Not Thailand?
McAfee is our Lyndon LaRouche
Mike Rowe is our William Jennings Bryant.
Rowe is the tits. A true rarity in modern entertainment.
I thought that was Ron Paul…
If he can get to Russia, he can bunk with Snowden for an Odd Couple revival.
Plot bunny!
Pretty sure Taiwan has an extradition treaty with the US. Won’t do him much good for long.
Nope. Since they aren’t recognized by the UN, so there is some tom-foolery with that making it difficult. I have no idea how the Taiwanese would view this, but they could tell the Austin PD to go piss up a rope.
If CNN is reporting this, it must be good news for Kavanaugh.
https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/19/politics/susan-collins-kavanaugh-accuser/index.html
Republicans may be closing in on the votes to confirm President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee if Christine Blasey Ford declines to testify.
“I think it’s not fair for Judge Kavanaugh for her not to come forward and testify,” Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, a crucial swing vote, told local radio station WVOM.
The comments by Collins, who as one of the more moderate Republican senators is seen as a key vote on the nomination, are the latest sign that if Ford declines to testify, it could help Kavanaugh’s chances at winning confirmation to the Supreme Court. Already, key Republicans like Sens. Bob Corker and Jeff Flake — who had been on-the-fence after the new allegations of sexual misconduct from Kavanaugh’s high school days in the 1980s — are saying they’re prepared to move ahead with the nomination if she won’t testify before the committee.
That’s a surprise.
Yes.
And it’s top of the Google Newsfeed which has been totally anti-Kavanaugh in its “algorithm”.
That…was unexpected.
I’d almost feel sorry for Ford. She obviously didn’t think of the repercussions when she sent that letter to her Congress critter. Now she is going to be destroyd on live TV.
If she tries to back out now, she is going to be pilloried by the deranged Left.
If she backs out and they still manage to turn Kavanaugh away, they won’t care. if she backs out and Kavanaugh gets in there, heaven help her.
No sympathy. There was no other reason for her to do this other than a desire to destroy Kavanaugh. She admitted to her therapist that she wasn’t even sure it was him. She’s a #resist professor in Northern California. She knew what she was doing.
I think she is a combo platter of dumb and crazy.
She thought she could just level the accusations in secret and it would sink him. She never thought her name would come out and that she would be thrown to the wolves by Feinstein.
You know who should really be paying attention to this? David Hogg. He should be worried about how the Dem machine will sacrifice him in a second if they think it will help them.
I feel no pity for her whatsoever
I hope the left ends up burning her at the stake
Grassley needs to schedule a committee meeting for tomorrow, and if she hasn’t definitively committed to testify under oath, no conditions, call the question and hold the vote.
Agreed
Should have been done already
I also have no sympathy for her.
I think she’ll back out and choose not to testify, and I think *most* of the left will forgive her for “not choosing to be interrogated by a system where women have no value and aren’t believed”. They still get to screech about it for his entire tenure. It’s probably a better outcome for them than if she testifies and everyone can say they heard the evidence and were not convinced.
Enh… too reality TV for me. Those eyes on Cody, though….
Cody’s a little bit crazy dude.
He has to be to do what he’s doing.
I reiterate one more time; there’s no reason for him to have done this. There would have been any number of willing ladies (or gentlemen) he could have had without having to resort to online Sugar Daddy hookers.
Yeah but sometimes you just want the milk without bothering to talk to the cow

Since someone (Tundra?) already mentioned them, Husker Du was the absolute best musical thing to ever come from the Land of 10,000 Lakes (and yeah, that includes Prince). Zen Arcade and Candy Apple Grey stand up after 30 f-ing years.
Totally agree, and New Day Rising is also damn near perfect. They were so professional compared to a lot of the punk bands (including my Replacements) and Bob went on to do some genius solo work.
I’ll go Replacements but it’s damn close.
Come on. Prince is the guy. Sorry, but that motherfucker could play the guitar AND write lyrics. He could play the guitar so goddam good, you didn’t notice when he was fucking destroying it.
No love for Dylan?
Nah. Sorry, I see Bob as Buddy Holly/Folk mashup. Don’t get me wrong. I agree that is another man who is woefully under-recognized as a guitar player, but they also gave him a Nobel Prize, which I think is too much.

Today’s Tin-Eared Hillary Update:
Like that won’t fire up his base.
Although, you have to admit, the woman who fired the White House travel staff to make room for her cronies does know “wholesale firing”. Odd that she wasn’t asked about that during this interview.
Its astonishing how bad she is at the whole “be charismatic and non-threatening” part of the job of being a national politician, isn’t it. Odder still that the Dem establishment still rolls over for her after she’s proven herself to be a loser.
From the reports I am hearing about the okeefe videos wholesale firings are not just warranted but urgent
These fucking commies have been staging a slow motion soft coup for a long time
The rot runs deep and needs to be cut out
Were it my call we would need a new federal prison
Nah. Rope is reusable and I know how to get plenty of jute nice and cheap.
I understand the sentiment but that’s a bad road to go down

I’m with you. Largely. I have taken to using the phrase ‘X is a commie and deserves a helicopter ride’. I’m somewhere between 90% and 98% being facetious and overstating it. My wife generally replies, “Only after a fair jury trial, dear.” To which I accede with less than good grace.
There’s a barbarian in my soul, but my head largely keeps him under control and understands exactly what you are saying.
The simple thing to remember is this – Citizen Robespierre had a date with Madame Guillotine. So even in the case where you start out deciding who gets the rides, you could just as easily find yourself with a good view and no parachute.
I can see it now. He sets it up like a normal weekly address. Goes through the normal bs. Transitions to trashing the entrenched bureaucracy, culminating in a firm, classic Trump “You’re fired.”

oh yeah. It’s a necessary development of political lesbianism.
@A Leap at the Wheel, you said in the other thread: “Do you really make an income writing genre books without a social media presence? I didn’t think that was possible these days.”
If you were asking me, the answer is, I have a social media presence. No, I don’t make any money anymore. I did 10 years ago when I first started and I was remarkable for self-publishing a good book (GOOD self-pub fiction and was an oxymoron at that time), but when the self-pub thing became The Thing To Do, I was just another voice in the noise. The marketers get the money, not the writers who just want to stay in their garrets and write.
Dammit.
The sad truth is that most good art is a product of compulsion. Commercial success is basically orthogonal with quality.

“Why PayPal’s crackdown on ASMR creators should worry you
In June, China banned and excised videos of sound effects while claiming to cleanse its internet of pornography. YouTube had already demonetized the genre in a sex panic; now PayPal is banning people for life and holding individuals’ funds, ignorant of the facts and marching lockstep to the tune of 8chan trolls enacting a campaign to punish “whores.”
The most bitter punchline in all this? A tiny percentage of the entire video genre is even remotely sexual, and those suffering — female creators — aren’t even making sex content.
This past week, nonsexual ASMR video creators Sharon DuBois (ASMR Glow), Scottish Murmurs, Creative Cal, and Rose ASMR have been permanently banned from PayPal and had their funds frozen for 180 days. Like with YouTube’s July censorship sweep, the women create videos of sound effects and have been expelled from the payment utility under alleged violations of the company’s sexual content policy prohibitions. ASMR community websites are now warning all creators to avoid PayPal.
Capitalizing on entrenched and easily exploitable anti-sex policies by internet giant payment processors and a new internet sex panic ushered in by FOSTA, 8chan trolls have started a campaign to mass-report attractive women who make ASMR videos. Listing names of women making these sound-effect videos in a forum thread called “PayPal lowering the hammer on ASMRtits” they’ve declared war by posting links to report pages for PayPal, and called upon fellow haters to get the women kicked off YouTube and Patreon as well. They’re laughing at the women’s anguish over creating nonsexual content and losing their revenue streams, saying things like “another whore for the deep-freeze” — in between posting anti-Semitic and Pepe the frog images, of course.”
https://www.engadget.com/2018/09/14/paypal-ban-asmr-sound-art-therapy/
This shit is getting ridiculous.
They make videos of sound effects. Is that a thing? Also, what is ASMR?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_sensory_meridian_response
Its at the intersection of hypnosis, drugs, sex, and religion.
If done correctly it can be pretty hot.
Very hot. An ex-girlfriend used to do that to me long before anyone had a name for it. I still bless that woman to this day, even though I ultimately did not marry her.
Ditto. Long fingernails + back of the neck did it for me.
Ypu can tell that the Cody Wilson thing is more than an ordinary arrest by looking at the coverage.
The stories all say he was charged with sexual assault. Every headline uses the same verbiage. The alleged events would better support “charged for hiring an underaged prostitute.” But they took the other angle, making him sound worse to the casual reader.
Legally it is the same thing and he is toast. But perception is important too. And by using that turn of phrase they have fried him.
Looks like its time for the school teachers and priests to come to Cody’s rescue…

Per interview earlier w okeefe lower level fed employees using work computers to send out mass political mailings recruiting for democratic socialist members, causes and coordinating protests
Using work computers and govt databases to dox political opponents and organize protest and harassment
Brazenly refusing any action to further trump orders and agenda
Openly stating they decide and enact policy and can’t be fired
It’s textbook definition of sedition and too many other felonies to list
The rot runs deep
And that’s how you get a Deep State.
The one good thing about my job is that it’s hard to fire me. Of course, I don’t decide policy or any of that. I can’t even keep the trash technologies that break stuff from being used.
I’m damned near unfireable too. I’ve been doing the same job for almost 20 years. No one else knows how to do it, I almost never miss any days, and it’s integral to the company keeping the lights on.
Management and Program Analyst with the Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations.
Oh for fuck sakes he wasn’t passing along state secrets he was using the company computer to post commie memes, He may as well have been doing his fantasy football picks on company time, yes fire him for fucking around on the job but if this is The Deep State™ then the term is meaningless. And the threat is laughingly overstated.
Definition of Sedition
: incitement of resistance to or insurrection against lawful authority
I’ve never been a fan of speech and thought crime laws, so Meh. Not to mention questioning authority is pretty high on my list of admirable qualities.
I was merely posting the definition, not casting judgement on its application in US law or on philosophical freedom of speech grounds. The problem is that this person is actively trying to undermine an elected government for sheer partisan reasons, unconnected to questions of legitimate powers of the government. I am a minarchist, but I also dwell within the current paradigm in which our supposedly limited gov’t operates outside of its supposed bounds in part because of the un-elected and unaccountable bureaucracy.
this person is actively trying to undermine an elected government for sheer partisan reasons
Which sound very damning but what exactly did he do, post some DU memes from a work computer? It’s this kind of bluster that enables the state to start punishing anything they dislike, I see that as a bigger threat than some jackass #resisting on the clock.
One of the prerequisites to have a Deep State is to have a class of bureaucrats who are unaffected/unaffectable by their nominal elected leaders. This guy is evidence that such a caste exists.
If the Deep State were impossible, he would be out of a job. He might not prove that the Deep State exists, but he proves it is possible.
he proves it is possible and as impotent a yeti pubed Toadstool dick. C’mon the guys an idiot and I’m supposed to be outraged at the #resistance? If this is what they got then Trump has nothing to worry about.
It doesn’t prove anything about the efficacy of the Deep State (if it exists).
The fact that this guy my be a schmuck in no way proves that FBI agents are paragons of impartial justice.
I’d say that you’re only supposed to be outraged by things that harm you or yours, but I’m just a rodent.
Fair enough.
For the record while it is hard for a federal employee to be fired, what they are doing is one of the things that will.
Is is anyone here good at office politics? I am not, but find myself in the maelstrom and need advice. Email me at my address.
Absolutely not, sorry. I avoid it like the plague.
Shit, sorry Tulip. I inadvertently stepped in it bad myself yesterday. Unintentionally called out my boss’s boss’s boss in a room full of people including VPs. I immediately sent apology emails to my boss and big boss who each thanked me for addressing it. My office politics skills are rusty, but at least my boss reassured me that it’s been 5 years since my last misstep.
I am atrocious at it.
I rely on the fact that I can’t be fired, and they need me because no one else seems to be able to handle basic troubleshooting.
Adequate at CYA aspects, and can help resolve inter-personal issues to the point where HR has me look over targeted policy updates to make sure they’re productive instead of punitive (thanks immature manager in another department!), BUT I have a hard time with objectivity when I’m directly involved and end up salting the earth a lot (or say making the immature manager in another department cry).
I’m good at contract diplomacy. In office, I’m in charge and don’t do politics.
I’m not sure I’d be much help.
Thanks anyway.
Ford may, or may not show up on Monday. If she does, Kavanaugh will still knock it out of the park. If not, it will be a vote, not a hearing. Either way, Kavanaugh still sits on the Supreme Court. Dems expected the Repubs to cower and give in. They didn’t. Even Flake is now backing off.
Federalist had a good point I thought, that Ford and Co thought they could work this like a Title IX kangaroo court – just lob the accusation to set off “investigations’ and delay, with her never having to get under oath or basically back up anything. Only to find out, nope, you need a bit more.
You know who surprises me most in this? Graham – he has been on FIRE of late. I figured him to be like Flake and want to get on with the Democrats, but he’s really been pretty pissed off about the whole affair.
Graham is a opportunist. Johnny is gone and a much bigger fish(Trump) likes him. So apparently he’s now a conservative.
It went down like this:
Flake: Look, Grammy Poo, you know we gotta help take Kavanaugh down, it’s what Johnny would have wanted.
Graham: Look, you floozy! You know nothing about what Johnny would have wanted! He loved me, me, ME!
Flake: Aww, poor Lindsey, it was me he really adored, I’m purtier!
Graham: Damn you, Flake, you whore! I’m supporting Kavanaugh, you go to hell! And I want my picture and stuff back! I was never into you anyway!
Flake was nothing more than a weekend fling for Lyndsey.
She’s not going to show. How do I know this? She said she would absolutely show and testify. Then Kavanaugh also said he’d be there. Then her and her lawyer said she’s not showing and demanded an FBI investigation before she shows. Which they know good and well, they are never getting. Look, the dems promised all she has to do was claim he felt her up. They promised that would be enough. Oops.
So what you are saying is that DIFi told her “look, you don’t have to like it, just try it one time. It won’t hurt too much, and if it does you can just bite your lip and it will all be over and done with. It won’t even take long! Before you know it, I’ll be done. Just give me what I want from you this one time and we won’t ever make it happen again. But, you know. Maybe you’ll think its ok. Try it and see.”
Ewww!
What I’m really wondering is if some of the stuff going around is actually true. Such as she was had advocated for someone to try the same thing on Gorsuch, on her FB page, before she scrubbed her FB page recently, like, you know, wiped it with a cloth?
In regards to the mammal with the 3D printed hand exploders.
There is a book called Fallen Dragon by Peter Hamilton. In the book the local ‘resistance’ sets up a mansion to look like a brothel. Then recruits a 14 y/o female mammal to work over one of the occupying soldiers. Then the next day she cries rape, goes to the local cops, and does the whole DNA swabs and exam gimmick. Meanwhile the resistance tears down all the fake brothel furnishings leaving an ordinary house. Anyways all of the evidence points directly to the rape charge, and gets the local population to riot.
Oh and he gets executed.

Shika outdoes herself today re Kavanaugh. “The problem is that she has provided enough details to be credible but hasn’t met the burden of proof to be convincing. An independent probe is one way to get past the “he said, she said.” Judge Kavanaugh has denied that he was even at the party where she says the incident occurred. If the FBI can confirm that, that’ll clear him pronto.”
If you can stand any more you know where to find it.
I’m so glad I left, never to step foot over there again. What a bunch of hacks.
Yes, obviously all he needs to do is have the FBI confirm that he wasn’t at a location she can’t recall on a specific date she can’t remember.
It was somewhere in MD, just because she can’t remember where, doesn’t mean it’s not the job of the FBI to prove that he wasn’t there. This is honestly how immature and clueless the majority of the left are. Shikha inclued. How the hell does TOS still let her write there? Embarrassing.
I doubt anyone can prove that a party even happened 36 years ago.
No silly, they just claim to want proof that the party *didn’t* happen.
Burden of proof is on the accuser.
Lol, not in the court of public opinion (as coaxed by the commie left media)
Bingo
Speaking of the court of public opinion
“Burden of proof is on the accuser.”
Not in New Progtopia.
“I doubt anyone can prove that a party even happened 36 years ago.”
There’s a high probability that you are right. It sounds like they were at someone’s house, where no adults were present. So likely, as I chanced upon more than a couple of times I was a teen, some parents were away and the teenager of the house decided to throw a party.
So, except for what teens were there, there were no witnesses. So no adult witnesses.
Also a good chance that none of the kids who were there at the time, still live there, or even recall it.
The likelihood of some proof surfacing from the 1980s is just about zero.
What is the FBI going to do? Take DNA sample from Kavanaugh and whatsherface and scour every home in Maryland looking for traces of their DNA? Over a 36 year old teen feel up?
These people are delusional beyond belief.
An independent probe is one way to get past the “he said, she said.”
There is no way to get past that which is patently hearsay. I fail to see what even an fbi investigation could possibly turn up.
Also, something something nickname something something college.
As I remember it, it was about 35 years ago I turned down Morgan Fairchild. Of course you can expect her to deny it.
Holy shit, you’re Dunphy?
If he was Dunphy he’s be talking about chicks with dicks, and in general making us hate him.
Wait, I thought it was Morgan freeman.
It was 45 years ago when I turned down a threesome with Ann Margaret and Sophia Loren. They both also deny this. If only I had a vagina, someone would have to believe me!

What happened to Styxhexenhammer? And who is that guy in the shirt?
When did the progressive media decide to brand Dennis Prager as alt- or far-right? This bizarre move must be recent. Was it to justify banning PragerU from FB, or was that a consequence of the branding (smearing)? It’s odd. I don’t see, say, Larry Elder (i.e. a comparable figure to Prager) getting that treatment (maybe it’s coming).
Long ago, given that he is quite socially conservative.
Personally, perhaps. But he has stuck me as someone who is what Republicans claim to be with regard to the role of government. That said, I have limited exposure to his work.
I actually exchanged emails with him personally, geez about 15 years ago, over some comment he made about homosexuality in some article somewhere (FrontPageMag? NR?) – I don’t remember any further details. It was some time before I found TOS. Anyway, I still thought he was wrong, but he was gracious and obviously sincere in his reply and I’ll remember him for that.
Yeah, but he’s being linked with young YouTuber personalities whose views are wildly different from his (for one thing, they’re not very socially conservative). He’s an old man doing talk radio.
This is what prompted my curiosity. I mean, I know it’s a broad smear-job and pre-justification for further censorship, but why him over other talk radio conservatives? Did he piss them off uniquely and distinctly recently?
“Did he piss them off uniquely and distinctly recently?”
Nah, he’s just very good at what he does and has a strong following. Used to listen to him. Seldom agreed but he’s intelligent, well spoken and consistent.
Guilt by association. Pretty sure he was published at the likes of FrontPageMag and other “anti-Muslim” (per Wikipedia) sites.

Nope, can’t be a world-class city without strip clubs.
I’m afraid the Intertoobz have been the death knell for strip clubs most everywhere. Why go to some seedy (or even not-so-seedy) joint in the dodgy (or even not-so-dodgy) part of town when you have unlimited PornHub at your fingertips?

“Let me read something into the camera”. Nope. Zero interest in talking-head videos. Their popularity mystifies me.
Many of the ancients would be mystified by the notion of NOT reading things aloud.
Guess I’m just a bit old-school ?
Yeah well Socrates probably never washed his hands after wiping his ass with a pine-cone. So who are you going to listen to, him, or me? I’ll tell you who. Me. The modern guy who always washes his hands after wiping his ass with a pine-cone.

Everything ok from ocracoke. Had to move the boat for a few days to a place w no internet. We got really lucky here. The returning diaspora tend to say it wasn’t the statewide apocalypse advertised. Would still like to find out how deepspeed did and where he was.
Glad you are safe.
So, I finally decided to replace my ancient Kindle Fire. Fire HD 10s are on sale for $110 right now. Ordered one at 10:30pm last night and was here at 9am this morning. Free shipping. I think I paid something like $179 for the original. The screen on this one is so much better. All I do is read on it and don’t really feel much need for a tablet outside of that. Don’t care much for phones either, only use them to text or make calls, check my work email. Desktop is my tool of choice. I have a new laptop, given to me by a client just a few months ago. Never turn it on except when I’m traveling.
Oh, I’m also going to try replacing my 30 year old alarm clock with my new Fire tablet. My ancient alarm clock is starting to fail finally. Now all I have to do is figure out how that works.
‘Alexa, you fucking cunt, set an alarm for me at …’
