    I happen to be a fan of the clam. I have references, too.

    “CHICAGO (WLS) —
    Dozens of people were wounded in shootings across Chicago since Friday, police said.”

    Does that still qualify as news? It’s like reporting the weather in San Diego.

    Hey Bill, in case you missed the reply in the last thread, I’ve heard a few people recommend the slow and sear for the kettle grill.

    1. trshmnstr

      Even without it, you can get decent results.

        You can also get a lot of info from this guy.

          Be careful with that site. There’s a few recipes loaded with derp.

      2. $130 is a little steep, but if I wind up doing a lot of smoking with this grill it might be worth it. I’m definitely going to give it a shot tomorrow with what I’ve already got, so we’ll see what happens.

      May 13, 2015

      A 17-year-old Cocoa girl suspected of being high on a hallucinatory street drug faces felony charges after police said she ran toward officers nude, covered in blood and yelled that she was Satan.

      It is the latest arrest in Melbourne believed to be connected to the highly potent street drug flakka. The drug is causing growing concern and has gotten the attention of Brevard County’s top law enforcement officers.”

          Ahh, Heavy Metal. One of my favorite flicks of all time. Nothing better than seeing it at a midnight showing. Much..uh, “intoxication”.

          1. Tundra

            Yep. Underrated movie that deserves more attention.

            Even Sammy was tolerable.

          2. egould310

            Tuesday morning at 11:00 am EST, the Garbage Man plays Heavy Metal by Don Henley. It is the most “liked” song in the WFMU library. Do your ears a favor and tune in to the fun 91 in the greater NYC area, or download the WFMU app. Station Manager Ken is losing his mind over the fact that Heavy Metal is the top song.

            Matt plays that song, then spends the last hour of his show playing stoner rock/space rock/motorik/prog/metal.

            Tune in.

    I love clams. White wine, dark beer, butter, lots of garlic, flat parsley……. Works better for mussels. Why I am where I am is still a mystery. We are short on clams around here. There is some bearded clam here, but it is hit or miss when harvesting them.

      A long time ago, I worked at a place that received shipments of “breaded clams”. One day, the boxes were labeled “bearded clams”.

    4. I like clam chowder. Well, New England clam chowder at least.

    Nuts

    The first Netroots Nation conference in a Trump-era election year opened with not one, not two, but five keynote speakers of color, all of whom underlined the potential of a “multiracial coalition” of voters made up of African Americans, Latinos, Asian Americans, and progressive whites. Their prescription for taking back the House in the November mid-terms was not winning back Trump voters, but expanding the electorate. “Our swing voter is not red to blue,” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the 28-year-old Bronx Democrat who upset Democratic Caucus Chair Joe Crowley in a June primary, told an audience of progressive activists on Saturday. “It’s non-voter to voter.”

    The line was met with huge applause from the audience at Netroots Nation, the annual gathering for progressive candidates, activists, and organizers. Where as last year’s conference attendees saw a gubernatorial candidate’s speech interrupted with shouts of “trust black women,” this year’s felt like a very intentional tribute to people of color, especially women. The conference offered more than 20 training sessions and panels specifically addressing how to reach those voters, as well as the millions of eligible Americans who aren’t registered to vote. The majority of panelists and presenters, according to Netroots organizers, were people of color.

    Democrats have been grappling with key questions about coalition building since the 2016 election: Should they prioritize winning back the voters they lost to Trump? Should they attempt to woo the white voters gradually fleeing the party? Progressives this weekend said, emphatically, no. It’s a genuine attempt to remake the Democratic Party at a time when racial and class tensions are the highest they’ve been since the 1960s—and it’s also put them on a collision course with party leaders and other Democrats.

    Yes, you slobbering morons. Continue your slide into race-obsessed dementia. Go all in on your program to force everyone to not merely tolerate but celebrate your manufactured panoply of genders. Tell every goddam person in America who works for a living to go fuck themselves. Sanity is for chumps. Reality is just like wallpaper; it can be swapped out for something prettier at any time.

    1. juris imprudent

    2. Spudalicious

      Post modernism. Truth is dead.

    3. Chafed

      I think their nuts agenda isn’t going anywhere because we have a strong economy. If Trump tanks it with a trade war then I’m not so certain.

    4. Bob

      The Democratic Party has been turning into the non-white party for sometime. I guess the big reveal is more a change in publicity than tactics. People have long said they want to import voters, they just haven’t been admitting it openly.

      1. whiz

        Yes, and as more and more non-whites figure out that the Democrats are just using them and not really doing anything for them, they will be in big trouble.

        1. Bob

          I doubt that.

    5. ” when racial and class tensions are the highest they’ve been since the 1960s”

      Gee, how did they get that way?

    That doesn’t mean ignoring whites and Trump voters, she says. Instead, “it’s rejecting the notion that our way to victory is having a centrist, moderate right-leaning strategy that feels like we could peel off Romney Republicans, versus investing in communities of color, marginalized groups and progressive white people,” Changa said. “There is this notion that…we can’t address the issues of race, systemic oppression because we don’t want to piss these voters off. We have to find a way to do both.”

    Go for it. Piss them off, good and hard. Tell Whitey MacHonkeyface what you really think of him. Let the patriarchy know you plan to topple them.

    Mini range review. Springfield Armory 911 – 380 acp.
    It was way too fricking hot outside today, but we went anyway.
    This little gun is nice. Great sights, very manageable recoil, accurate.
    Only caveat is that this is with the extended mag. The flush mag still works, but it makes the gun less enjoyable at the range.

    If you have really big hands, this might not work for you…anyone else, this is worth checking out. ???

        I have a PX9151L.
        It’s very nice.

    Did some gardening today, which was a mistake. It was way too hot and sunny.

    Cut about 8 concrete pavers in half, dug a trench to put them in to make an edge then ripped out a bunch of grass and other weeds from around my Lilacs and then put a bit of topsoil and mulch over that. Looked after the kid.

    My brother came over to watch Tremors (6?) with me and we reenacted MST3k. He brought me some nice beer- Southern Tier 2X Stout, which I am enjoying now.

    Well earned after all the sun.

    “Sylvia Jeffreys: ‘A simple act of chivalry made me question my status as a feminist’

    As the seatbelt light flicked off and I stood up to reach for my bag in the overhead locker, a man who’d been sitting across the aisle beat me to it. He stretched out his arms to pull the mini suitcase down and passed it over to me with a generous smile.

    Nothing unusual about that, right? Wrong. Here’s the unusual part: for a weird, fleeting moment, that man’s chivalrous act sent me down a strange rabbit hole of self-reflection.

    ‘Should I feel patronised?’ I asked myself. I was a few centimetres taller than him and I have really long arms – I could have reached that bag. But I appreciated his help. I liked his support. Is that bad? Did I just enforce a gender stereotype by playing the role of “damsel in distress”? Is chivalry all of a sudden… sexist?

    I was one wild thought away from humbly handing in my “Feminist” badge at the exit when I snapped back to reality.”

      1. juris imprudent

        I thought that was only post-coital?

    2. Mustang

      The appropriate response would have been to rip the bag from him and smash it into his gut whilst screaming “REEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAPE!”

    3. Bob

      Yeah, feminism is “we are the same.” Unless there are advantages for being a woman, then treat me like a woman.

    4. Christ, Sylvia, he was being nice. Does feminism mean you have to be offended when men are nice to you? Because if it does, maybe rethink that shit.

      1. Rhywun

        But men are only nice to women because they want to get in their pants.

        1. And if that’s true, is it so bad, really? If someone is willing to go out of their way to give you a favorable impression because they think you’re attractive and want to have sex with you, that’s a compliment.

    1. juris imprudent

      As if there aren’t enough dead bodies in Chicago this weekend.

    2. Chipwooder

      Putting Chicago “pizza” in a case in a museum is a better idea than eating it.

      1. Spudalicious

        I’m okay with Chicago Style. It’s Sicilian I have a problem with. That’s focaccia with tomato sauce.

        1. Sicilian pizza is still pizza, though.

          Chicago-style tomato cheese pie is not pizza. I’ve had some I enjoyed, and I’ll eat it happily, but it isn’t pizza. It cannot be held, never mind folded. The crust is pretty much cornbread. It’s a casserole, essentially. Which is fine, it’s a good casserole, but it’s not pizza.

    1. Mustang

      I’m not sure who is crazier, this Sarah Jeong person or this guy who’s tracking down all her twits.

      Can Twitter just die already?

      1. Rhywun

        I imagine he just clicked on her name and scrolled through page after page of them. Not much tracking down involved? Thought I don’t twat so maybe I misunderestimate the effort.

        1. MikeS

          Thought I don’t twat

          I, uh…yeah.

      2. juris imprudent

        Let’s start a conspiracy theory that Twitter was really invented by Russian oligarchs to poison our society.

    2. F. Stupidity Jr.

      Sarah Jeong was imitating the voice of her harassers. The NYT said that with a straight face.

    3. Chafed

      That’s pretty convincing. Looks like NYT didn’t really vet and has chosen to dig in rather than admit a mistake.

      1. F. Stupidity Jr.

        At this point, I’m thinking they *did* vet her and wanted her voice in their stable.

        The whiteys at the NYT agree with her wholeheartedly; they don’t think of themselves as the same whites that Jeong rails against. They’re the good ones.

      2. Rhywun

        Of course they vetted her. I am pretty certain that finding that treasure trove of crazy takes no effort at all. It is more likely they already knew all this and approved.

      3. Count Potato

        I think the NYT knew, and decided to hire her anyway. Sure, they are very biased, engage in “fake news”, etc. but they aren’t literally stupid or incapable of doing basic research.

      4. commodious spittoon

        I love this story, because all outcomes are equally good. I’m fine with the argument that they shouldn’t fire her because it merely exacerbates the call and response of outrage-driven scalp-taking. Quit giving in to the people demanding scalps and someday they’ll stop calling for them. This is optimal because it sticks it to people I despise, shit-flinging outrage monkeys, and reveals the NYT for being massive hypocrites about what amount of bigotry they’ll accept.

        But I’m also partial to the Alinskyite Right arguing to force the left to live by its own rules. You want rules of decorum vitiating speech in service to your PC guidelines? Fine, let’s all be the most anal-retentive, hidebound refs: you don’t get away with the soft bigotry you peddle to your protected classes, and you don’t get away with the flagrant bigotry you unleash on whites, Christians, conservatives, and men. So, yes, call for her scalp: insist she be fired, if the NYT is to have a voice of moral clarity going forward. Either they’re bound by their own rules, or their rules no longer have any validity. No half-measures, and certainly none of the nuance they deny their enemies.

        In a sense, they made a very Trumpian error: they stumbled into a trap of their own making, and now no matter what they do, it’s the wrong decision. But whereas Trump is brash enough to bullshit his way out of his messes, the NYT hasn’t got Trump’s gift of the inane. They’re going to have to square the circle and insist that, no, A really does equal B, if you squint hard enough. (RACIST!) I suspect what they’ll end up doing is keeping the bigot on but insist she’s been reformed and no longer believes that whites are dogs. And that’s going to piss off people who vibe to anti-white racism.

      5. Bob

        In their bubble people talk like this and nobody thinks anything if it. It’s just telling the truth in their opinions, there’s nothing to vet.

    4. JaimeRoberto

      To be sure the tweets about cooking rice were kind of funny.

      1. I went out and bought a nice rice cooker. His name is Jae-Suk.

      1. God she’s hot.

        Also, found this gem further down the…tweet? Thread?

        “I’m allowed to say and do things that you’re not allowed to do because you hold all the power ” is not exactly the most logically sound or even internally consistent argument ever.

        Couldn’t put it better myself. Also, she’s an “edgy” racist millennial twit complaining because she’s a whiny little bitch, like all her ilk. That the NYT hired her for something other than part-time mailroom intern is yet another sign of how far that rag has fallen. It’s a parody of upper-class leftism.

    No punches pulled at the Examiner. “Obamacare is now optional.”

        LOL, the video with the article was about new ‘RuZZian AccOUnts’ 32 of them! Across Facebook AND Instagram! How can our republic survive such an attack!? Surely everyone in the country, except the smart Democrats, have been swayed by this propaganda!

  21. Gilmore

    So apparently the usual suspects (SJW world) are pissed off that a “guy with hispanic name” (Hernandez) is going to be playing Thomas Magnum in new reboot of Magnum P.I…

    …but that they’re not completely rewriting the character to make him some low-rider driving, taco eating, ai mami yelling, borriqua! loco hombre, ‘constantly-signaling-to-the-audience-how-INCREDIBLY-Latin he is’….

    https://twitter.com/TheFienPrint/status/1026250790871097345

    and then they start bitching that OMG THERE ARENT EVEN ANY HISPANIC *WRITERS* BECAUSE HOW CAN YOU WRITE A LATINX CHARACTER (they just explained, he’s not) WITHOUT LATINX WRITERS OMG THIS IS AN OUTRAGE

    also: Higgens is a lady. I don’t…. whatever.

    I can only assume TC and Rick are married, and Rick used to be named Theresa.

    1. Brett L

      Higgins is a lady? Why would they do that? Now there has to be sexual tension. That… ruins the relationship. If they make her a prissy little downer like the original Higgins, the outcry will be deafening… You know what, fuck it. I’ll just watch old time Magnum in his Ferarri and short-shorts racing around with his old SEAL buddies.

      1. Chipwooder

        Can’t go wrong there, Magnum was a fantastic show. And I have the theme song as the ringer for my phone.

      2. MikeS

        Yeah, she’s an former British commando hottie. I’m sure there will be plenty of girl power.

        I’m with you, I’ll stick with the original. In fact, I’m a few episodes behind in my DVR.

    2. Count Potato

      A Ferrari low-rider?

      1. Gilmore

        Its a 488 (at least in the pic i saw)

        I think a gold Mondial convertible with fuzzy dice, zebra seat-covers, spinning chrome rims, and a ‘la cuceracha’ horn would have been pretty sweet tho

        1. The Last American Hero

          He should roll up in that in Episode 1, before Higgins/Robbin Mistress gives him the keys to the Ferrari.

    3. Chipwooder

      Did you know……the entire reason Magnum PI was ever created in the first place is that the CBS staff that had lived in Hawaii for a decade making Hawaii Five-0 didn’t want to move back to the mainland when that show ended in 1980, so they pitched a new Hawaiian based show.

        God bless ’em. Two great shows and they got to live and work in paradise.

        So, is that why the rerun is coming out, I wonder. Which channel is the Hawaii 5-0 remake on? Did it get cancelled, yet?

        1. Raven Nation

          Nope, 9th season coming up on CBS in September.

          1. MikeS

            Whoa, 9th Season?! Man, time flies. I tried watching it early on but I just didn’t care for it. I suppose because get off my lawn…

          2. Rhywun

            Honest question – who watches this stuff? I mean yeah get off my lawn but isn’t it only like senior watches watching network TV any more?!

          3. Rhywun

            “senior citizens”

        2. Chipwooder

          Hawaii Five-0 remake is still on CBS, actually. It’s been on a while now.

      2. The Last American Hero

        And that remake recycled Lost characters that didn’t want to leave.

    Sarah Jeong was imitating the voice of her harassers. The NYT said that with a straight face.

    What possibly effective solutions to the Chicago massacres are being proposed? It would appear that another March against Violence won’t have any effect. I doubt that more stop and frisk of black males, flooding the streets with cops, giving life sentences to anyone found with a gun, check points where all vehicles are searched, strict curfews, cops shooting first, etc. are going to be acceptable to the BLM/SJW who run the City.

    1. Lachowsky

      Ending the war on (some) drugs would work wonders, but no one ever seems to think of that.

      1. Chafed

        Yup. And perhaps the marchers should examine the problems in their community that are under their control and/or of their own making.

      2. Rhywun

        I would like to think so but I’m not as certain as I used to think I was that the gangs that cause most of this violence wouldn’t just turn to something else.

        1. Count Potato

          But what? There is no money in robbing poor people.

          1. Rhywun

            I dunno… cigarettes? Numbers? Plastic straws?

    2. Old Man With Candy

      It would appear that another March against Violence won’t have any effect.

      It will have exactly the effect desired by the organizers. Money will flow from city taxpayers to “programs” run by the “community organizers.” It’s a protection racket.

    I doubt that more stop and frisk of black males, flooding the streets with cops, giving life sentences to anyone found with a gun, check points where all vehicles are searched, strict curfews, cops shooting first, etc. are going to be acceptable to the BLM/SJW who run the City.

    I don’t think the Warsaw Ghetto treatment would work, even if there were somebody with the stomach and resolve to try it.

    Unfortunately, the economic and cultural changes needed have much too long of a time horizon to be a realistic alternative. Bring on Universal Basic Income and more free shit. That’ll fix it!

    1. Chafed

      That’s perfect.

  26. The Late P Brooks

    Also- re: Chicago

    See the link above about Netroots. The Progressive Insurgency is Hell-bent on beating the racialist drum as hard as they can. They’ll be out there telling black voters how they have been victimized by those genocidal NRA racists, who flood the ghetto with mind altering guns and force those nice young men to shoot each other. Also, Republikkkins are keeping them down.

      Light at night constitutes a massive assault on the ecology of the planet, including us. It also has indirect impacts because, while 20 per cent of electricity is used for lighting worldwide, at least 30 per cent of that light is wasted.

          Tatts on men are gross, too.

        The whole tattoo movement seems to be splitting into two camps. At least for men. You’re either a total badass like Connor McGregor or a total pussy like Adam Levine. Basically, UFC fighter or Starbucks barista.

    2. Gustave Lytton

      Tattoos and tattas, what could go wrong?

      Uh, no thanks. I think I’ll just stay in tonight.

    3. I want to like chicks with tattoos, but when I see women with ink from knuckles to neck my first reaction, like on a visceral level, is that they’ve got dirty arms. Like not morally dirty, more like they’ve actually got schmutz on their arms or legs or neck that they should wash off when they have a chance.

    4. Chafed

      No thanks. There are a number of otherwise beautiful women in that group whose look is ruined by their ink.

      I don’t know if that is your place, but it is just oozing with 侘寂. Makes me happy.

        It looks like a grandpa house, with the boardwalk and fake (I’m guessing) outhouse.

        1. Gustave Lytton

          It’s the pump house. Wife had the idea of putting a crescent moon on the door since it’s just about the right size.

          1. straffinrun

            The crescent moon is one of the things that made me think of wabi sabi. The Chinese would admire the full moon as they drank tea. Wabi sabi suggests looking at the half or crescent moon as a way to grasp the transient nature of existence. Also, the slightly unkempt status of the potted plants produces the feeling of loneliness they loved. I’ve been studying up on wabi sabi lately, so it’s more than likely that I’m seeing examples of it everywhere, especially where it wasn’t intentional.

          2. Gustave Lytton

            Hmmm.. I wonder if wabi sabi would fly with the wifey. No honey, it’s not an unfinished project, it’s a Japanese aesthetic.

          3. straffinrun

            I thinks it a pity to see it dying out. The sterile lines of the department stores, the unblemished countertops, the perfectly clean subway cars… I don’t want NY ala the 70’s, but I don’t want to live in Gattaca either.

    It’s late, so I might repeat this tomorrow, but a lot of those Sarah Jeong tweets made me think of something Richard Spencer would have put out. She talked about the lack of white accomplishment in rice cooking, technology, etc. I suspect the vast majority of white people (along with every other race) give a shit about their own personal accomplishments (or lack thereof), not those of their race cohort.

    Richard Spencer is a definite exception. So is Sarah Jeong, and a bunch of other racists from different ethnicities.

    1. Gustave Lytton

      Lost in the whole muck is she’s hired onto the NYT editiorial board at age 30. That’s about 15-20 years too soon. Yet another millennial that can’t put in the hours first & earn their stripes.

      1. Lackadaisical

        This *sounds* like a criticism of millennials, but is really a criticism of the people who hire and promote them (Gen X/Boomers). Though, I don’t really accept the premise of your statement, as I suspect similar things have always happened, with a few go-getters from each generation doing quite well for themselves early on in their career.

    2. straffinrun

      It’s a necessary development. They’ve been able to throw the “white privilege” idea around without it being confronted by the normies. It was just some academic nonsense that didn’t effect them. This assault on individualism has to be fought back by everyone in the culture because it’s challenge to the simple idea that we treat people as individuals. I have faith that most black people would recoil at someone telling them that a white baby born to meth heads has some inherent privilege. I want Mooooar Jeongs in the public sphere.

      1. Bob

        Yeah, the black voters will rise up any minute against affirmative action since it’s based on race and not wealth. I’m sure they find the idea repulsive they just didn’t notice it the last 50 years.

        1. Lackadaisical

          Yup, everyone (except some libertarians and fringe people like Peterson) likes racial/ethnic collectivism, right up until it bites them in the ass, and sometimes even then (ref: white SJWs). I agree with Straffin that everyone in society would need to fight the assault on individualism occurring now from the left, I just don’t think the ideas expressed by the left on this topic are fringe thought that people as a whole are going to rebel against.

      2. That seems to break along socio-economic lines, in my experience. Middle- and upper-middle class Progressives tend to accept privilege as a given, but working-class people and people who tend to work in careers where they hold their position on the basis of continually proving themselves through competency (sorry, don’t know a better way to put that) tend to be extremely skeptical of it. Of the black people in my social circle, none of them believe “white privilege” is a thing. They believe there’s racism, and they believe that most people who are “connected” are white, but they don’t believe that being white gets you anything special. They’ve met plenty of white people who clearly are not in any way privileged. It’s only college-educated (liberal arts or “soft” sciences) professionals in government or academia who I know that accept the whole privilege thing entirely.

    3. Bob

      Richard Spencer is a choir boy compared to Jeong. She calls for genocide and says whites smell like dogs.

      I don’t see how you can conclude ethnic pride is some exceptional trait in humans. We have nationally recognized months that are based on ethnicity, congressional caucuses, voting blocks, city sections, history books, etc. It’s the most common way humans faction themselves.
