“Here, take a bite of this,” Donald said, thrusting the Finnish Big Mac into Sarah’s face. She moved away from the dripping sandwich.
“Take a bite, Pie,” Donald insisted.
“My name is Sarah, sir,” Sarah protested.
“Take a bite. I insist,” he said.
“What’s wrong with it?” she asked.
“Wrong? Nothing’s wrong. It’s a Big Mac. It’s delicious.”
“Why is it, uh, dripping?” Sarah asked. Her stomach rumbled audibly.
“I always ask for extra-extra secret sauce. Because it makes it better. And because it’s secret.” He reached out and smushed the edge of the sandwich lightly into her face. Sarah licked her lips reflexively and gagged.
“See? I told you. Just tremendous. I made this Big Mac so much more delicious,” Donald said. “Me. I did that.”
He devoured the Big Mac in three enormous mouthfuls, except the small part that had touched Sarah. He looked at as he chewed the last giant bite and then dropped it on the floor. He turned back to rummage through the McDonald’s bag.
“Shit. The fries are cold. I can’t eat these,” he said with roiling disgust. “I bet Vlad never has to eat cold fries!” He threw the large order of cold fries at Sarah and they dotted her white dress with grease and salt where they struck.
Get up off my dick, New York Times. I am going to cut you.

Tim Tebow Dating Alleged Woman
Tim Tebow has confirmed he is dating Miss Universe Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters.
The 30-year-old football star, who has made a vow to stay chaste until marriage, gushed about the 23-year-old pageant queen to ESPN.
The former NFL quarterback, who famously switched from football to baseball, told the outlet on Sunday: ‘She is a really special girl and I am very lucky and blessed for her coming into my life.’
Imagine a world where everyone was judged solely on the opinion of the exes. Do you think the cat ladies of Jezebel really want to live in it?
Yvette Nicole Brown Will Fill In for Chris Hardwick on Talking Dead Following Abuse Allegations
Last month, actor Chloe Dykstra posted a lengthy, harrowing essay on Medium detailing extensive sexual and emotional abuses she says she faced during a three-year relationship with “a mildly successful podcaster to a powerhouse CEO of his own company.” It didn’t take long for readers to realize she was accusing Nerdist founder and AMC’s Talking Dead host Chris Hardwick, and it didn’t take long for noted dumbass Adam Carolla to come to his defense.) AMC is currently investigating the accusations, and because of that, Hardwick will be replaced, temporarily, on Talking Dead by Yvette Nicole Brown (Community, Drake & Josh).
And to show you I am not just being biased, here are pictures of my cats:
Turtle man is really just a big ol’ dog…
Scientist Loses Distinguished Award After Acceptance Presentation Full of Racy Photos
The Herpetologists’ League rescinded its annual Distinguished Herpetologist award after winner Dick Vogt showed racy photos during his acceptance address.
The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle reports:
According to several attendees, Vogt, a longtime researcher of Brazilian turtles, showed several pictures of “scantily clad female students” doing field research. The photographs were risqué enough that conference organizers added blue boxes to cover parts of the women’s bodies.
Henry Mushinsky, committee chairman of the Joint Meeting of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists, told the Democrat and Chronicle that the conference did not have a code of conduct. He said that students doing fieldwork near water often wear bathing suits, but that these photos were “not just typical documentary photos,” the Democrat and Chronicle wrote. Several attendees tweeted that they walked out of the talk. The Herpetologists League offered a statement to conference attendees condemning Vogt’s behavior.
With bonus “asking to see the pics is being childish” action in the comments.
Where did he do his research, because the problem might not have been the photographs, but the quality of the students.
Brazil.
Were the students Brazilian? Or did he import them with his expeditions?
It seems that the Turtle Conservancy takes students from all over for field research, but Herpetology draws the hottest students at any college. Everyone knows this.
I think you mean herpes-tology
How long does it take them to figure out that Herpetologists don’t get cured of herpes?
Were the women newt?

Anybody that owns a black cat is alright by me.
She was in my underground parking garage, raising seven shades of holy hell, yowling and screeching, lonely and afraid. I took her to see if she had a chip and looked for lost cat signs for a couple of weeks. Rather than risk taking her to the Humane Society, she just moved in.
That’s awesome. My cat was a wee little kitten when our paths crossed. I was leaving my apartment one evening when he came traipsing up outside the building gate and sat right in front of me. I thought he might have belonged to one of the neighbors, so I let him in to the stairwell. He darted up the stairs and just sat in front of my apartment staring at the door until I opened it. He’s the first cat I’ve ever had, and we’ve been together for about ten years now.
That’s adorable. The tuxedo showed up like that, tiny little thing, howling on the back porch to be let in like she already lived there.
Dogs have owners. Cats have staff.
Dog: These people, they feed me and take care of me. They must be gods.
Cat: These people, they feed me and take care of me. I must be a god.
Heh. I like to tease about cats. Still, they can be cool pets…for a week or so.
Was it here that someone posted a link to an article about how cats would kill their owners if they could (I think it mentioned studies showing domestic cats are just as predatory as they big ones, and as such, couldn’t really be trusted if they were that big).
Also, decades ago some comic made the point that you’ll never see a Seeing Eye cat (at least not a successful one).
Tuxedo cats are always the best.
We have one now that wears an XXXL tuxedo, as he weighs over 30 pounds.
Vet thinks he may have some Maine Coon in him and thus the big frame.
I’m just big boned!
That’s not what she said!
I am actually big-boned, but I’m fat too.
Mine is a rescued cat. We got him when he was a few weeks old. He was skittish and hissed for a couple of weeks. The first time I held him he sang me a melancholy meow tune. Now he’s King Shit of the house.
My cat (we have 3, but one is clearly mine) was a rescue from a restaurant parking lot. She tentatively emerged from the bushes, meowing pathetically, her hunger having overcome her fright. We had leftover lobster pizza (Red Lobster, don’t judge) and she got bits of lobster. It was all over from there.
Now, she greets me at the door and stays by my side as much as I allow. If she’s in another room and I call her, she comes running. And I’ve taught her to stand up on command and beg for food. As well as she has figured out how to ‘ask’ for play times. there’s a toy that’s a ball with a feather. She doesn’t like /that/ toy, but she brings it to me and makes a certain sound when she wants play time with the feather on a stick.
I value her more than most people.
Back it up….beep, beep, beep. Pizza at Red Lobster’?
Well, for certain values of pizza. it was an appetizer with cheese and bits of lobster on a thin crust bread as I recall.
Okay, here is what I want to know. When a big road grater is backing up it goes beep, beep, beep, which can be heard for blocks and blocks. WTF? Who isn’t going to notice a big road grater belching smoke and noise? Seriously, What’s with the F’ing beep, beep, beep…?
Those backup beepers probably come in handy more on construction sites than on roads.
Government regulation in case it rolls over workers on the site.
OSHA and backing over workers
Those things frequently move a little forward, then a little back, then a little forward, then a little back. The beeping is to let the guys working around it know when they need to get a move on.
They just need to fucking pay attention
Who isn’t going to notice a big road grater belching smoke and noise?
Rachel Corrie.
Ouch.
Alright, that’s what she said.
My wife rescued our two current cats. One of them came from the pound and has decided she much prefers me to my wife. My wife is sorely jealous about this. The other cat was found as a kitten, minding his own business in a parking lot. My wife scaled a 6-foot chain link fence to “rescue” the little asshole. He showed his gratitude by biting the shit out of her hand. Now he sleeps all day, cultivates blubber, and ignores both of us.
So…the second one is a very successful cat then?
I got my mini-panther at an animal hospital a friend worked at. Scared to death of everyone but me. Other than that he’s awesome. Also rescued a tabby that was a little too bitey for families to take, but as it’s just me in my condo and no kids around she’s mostly okay.
Apparently Joe Walsh got suckered by Sacha Baron-Cohen. LOL. I might have to watch the show now.
When Borat was released, I saw an interview on the Today show with Baron-Cohen in character as Borat. I couldn’t believe anybody would find this stuff funny.
The naked fight with his manager and him jamming his tongue down his “sister’s” throat was cringe funny, the rest of Borat not so mich.
I keep wondering what would happen if someone he tried to dupe figured it out but accepted the interview anyway and tried to interview him asking what it was like to go through life pretending to be other unfunny people. Would he be able to maintain character?
Life’s still been good to him so far, though.
He’s living life in the fast lane.
Now days he picks up the dog poop

Dammit, you stole our joke!
So we should ask, for the children?
And still no pics!

“It wasn’t explicit,” she said, “but it was not professional.”
Well, don’t let that stop you.
“Fuck turtles. We look at turtles all day. Let’s look at tiddies instead.”
I sense he is a kindred spirit.
“swiftly and vocally criticized within the herpetology community.”
Turtle scientists had a mad.
Of course, these are academics. I wouldn’t be shocked to discover that, in the era of #MeToo, patriarchal oppression, and the male gaze, any woman clad in less than a burkha is being “exploited”.
You’re in the frickin’ Brazilian jungle, mucking around in mud and water. What do you think you should wear?
mosquito netting + knee-high snake boots
I can see wearing high boots and gauzy fabrics as being pretty offensive to the #MeToo harpies in academia.
And nothing else… ladies.
Well, garter belt and stockings would help.
… Hobbit
Isn’t it kind of natural to position objects near oneself in the center-of-mass area… i.e., the torso?
That’s where I try to center myself.
Nah, that’s the turtle poop.
Your cats have beds made out of Amazon boxes, just like mine do.
I’ve also used them to make stairs for the old lady. (The tuxedo cat just turned 17.)
That’s a pretty good idea. I actually bought stairs for our old guy once he couldn’t jump anymore. Now the other cats use them all the time because they are lazy (and getting middle-aged). We have
threefour sets of stairs at this point. Next time I’ll use boxes if I can keep the cats out of them long enough.Mine sit in them for some arbitrary length of time and then decide one day to never get in or even near them ever again.
Mine take turns. We have seven, so by the time they all get tired of it the box is pretty well trashed.
Seven cats? Seven? Good God man. Do you live on a farm?
Spartacus is a crazy cat lady.
(This is why there are no female libertarians….)
No, I live in a litter box.
That’s just because you have seven cats. Offload some and you’ll be able to clean up…
They’re good kitties. I always know when someone is coming up the driveway because there is a mad scramble to get to the back of the house and hide.
Most of the current group were foster kittens of various kinds that my wife was unable to adopt out. Not that she tried very hard.
SF, ever notice that cats are much like little kids? Buy ’em all kinds of toys and they ignore those in favor of the box the toys came in. But the box must be just smaller than the cat.
Our cats took over the dog bed.
I got my cats a $30 cat bed. They never use it. They prefer cardboard boxes.
See comment above.
Heh. Every time I get a box from Amazon mine always goes in and chills in it.

They wouldn’t be happy with one either.
Technically Trump was right. Obama was well aware of the Russia activity and didn’t do shit to stop it.
To clarify right in regards to both are at fault
He downplayed it, ironically, because he didn’t want Trump parroting conspiracy theories after he lost.
For all the talk of “surrender”, I’m not sure what is being surrendered.
His virtue.
How can he surrender something he never had?
That’s what it makes it all the more shameful.
For Putin…
YOU GOT USED GOODS, VLAD!
To be fair, its probably the smartest move the left has taken against trump in a bit. It is a move made to weaken support among what the left see as his conservatories base. It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out. As i see it this really hits neo-cons who are already a majority Never Trumpers
Most of Trump’s base couldn’t care less about any of this. The “national greatness” Weekly Standard types who are screaming about this already hated him, as you mentioned.
FOX News (and not just Shep Smith) is hitting him hard on this.
Left going from rabidly anti-war to rabidly pro-war depending on political expediency? What a shock. Where is Dalton Trumbo?
Right but again they are completely missing the point.
The Republican Party’s elites are Hamiltonians when it comes to foreign policy. But the base, and particularly the diehard Trump supporters, are Jacksonians.
They don’t give a fuck about Putin, unless and until Putin makes war (war, not “hacking into the Democrats server”). If Putin ever does make war against the US, the Jacksonian response is to wage war, not to levy sanctions or make speeches.
Good Explanation, IMO.
It is a move made to weaken support among what the left see as his conservative base.
And it might have worked, if (a) they hadn’t pissed their credibility away with shrieking hysterics and (b) this wasn’t presented in a tone of shrieking hysteria.
I really don’t think it would have worked.
See, the Republican base needs to be sold on war and they only buy if they perceive an immediate and lethal threat. The Iraq War had to be sold as “Saddam did 9/11 and he’s working on WMDs for even more 9/11s”. It couldn’t be sold as what it was, a Hamiltonian/Wilsonian nation building project, it had to be sold to appeal to the Jacksonians who make up the base of the GOP.
The media and the Left is trying to sell the Republican base on the idea that “Hacking into and releasing damaging information about Hillary Clinton” is analogous to a direct attack on America. There might be one Middle American Trump voter who wants to send his sons off to the Crimea to defend the Honor of the Harridan, but I think you would be hard pressed to find two.
I agree that i don’t think this tactic will work, due to (as viking explains ) the whole basis of “RUSSIA! !!” Is that Hillarey and DNC were exposed as crooks.
This is a part of why i stopped reading hot air and left the conservative movement (as much as i was ever a part of it )
If he had come out swinging against Putin they’d accuse him of creating an international incident, and trying to suck up to Comey (which would be seen as an admission of guilt). Trump will never win with the press, but at least he knows it.
That is his greatest asset. He not only doesn’t give a rat’s ass what the press thinks, he can chose to completely ignore it if he wants.
His famous “grab them by the” brag would have destroyed most politicians. Not only did it not take him down, he didn’t even acknowledge the issue.
I still can’t figure out if it is on purpose, but after a lifetime of defensive republicans mewling at the first accusation of racism or sexism, it really is fun to have a politician who just doubles down and ignores the chattering of monkeys in the press.
I predicted that he would respond to accusations with “yeah, well you are fat and stupid. ” I was wrong. He is even more oblique than that. It really is funny watching the left have a stroke over the fact that they keep landing what they think are killing blows, only to have him completely ignore them.
I was listening to Dave Smith on his podcast the other day and he addressed this phenomenon. Apparently he had some SJW dude come up at an event and grab a microphone and start ranting about how they were all racists. So the Puerto Rican dude on the panel jumps up, ready to fight. So old person of color from Puerto Rico yells at the kid who is in his face and calls him a fag.
At this point the SJW is flummoxed. He thought he had won the day with “racist”, and then was shocked that grabbing some guy’s mic and getting in his face resulted in not only a socially unacceptable epithet, but threats of violence (i.e. “Let’s step outside”). So he says, “well, I might be a fag, but at least I’m not a racist!” (dude wasn’t gay, BTW)
And there you have it. The SJW just absolutely spun sideways that his juvenile tactics not only didn’t work, but resulted in a resounding defeat.
He is even more oblique than that.
I dunno. Neither “fake news” nor “enemies of the American people” is particularly oblique.
I think he’s oblique in that he doesn’t use those every time. Certain stories that the press deem “newsworthy” are completely ignored by him and get no reaction whatsoever. Sometimes it seems like he has some sort of formula for it, other times it seems like he’s just completely winging it. Which it is, I have no clue. I’m just as dumbfounded by it as anybody else.
That is exactly my reaction. He is an expert at keeping people off balance. It is almost like he is a giant magic 8 ball of responses. You shake him up, and something random comes out. Sometimes, like playing Dark Side of The Moon along with Wizard of Oz, it lines up and seems brilliant. Other times, it is an absurd non-sequitur.
The randomness of ignoring something vs going scorched earth vs saying something infuriatingly inappropriate about something completely unrelated really keeps everyone off balance and his enemies chasing their tails.

“We’re just, you know, in general the protest movement and the resistance movement that I would say is exhausted.”
Of the things listed they all seem to pale in comparison to the atrocities of perpetual war. So using that as an excuse makes me doubt their commitment to the anti-war movement.
HAHAHAHAHA
We can only be brave and strong-willed for so long!
I don’t blame them for being exhausted. For the past 2 years (or more) the left has gone over the top ape shit over FUCKING EVERYTHING. Bathrooms, #metoo, Russia, wedding cakes, literally Hitler, you name it. It reminds me of my office, where we have no system to prioritize things, so everything is a #1 top emergency priority.

Thanks for the reminder. I need to make sure my college age siblings see it
When I saw Animal House, I was convinced that it was about Pater Dean’s fraternity, because about 2/3 of what they showed (not including the parade at the end) were stories I’d already heard.
The other stories were more R rated.
Wiki:
“…The film was produced by Matty Simmons of National Lampoon and Ivan Reitman for Universal Pictures. It was inspired by stories written by Miller and published in National Lampoon. The stories were based on Ramis’s experience in the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity at Washington University in St. Louis, as well as Miller’s Alpha Delta Phi experiences at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire, and producer Reitman’s Delta Upsilon experiences at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario.”

Soy-boys of London assemble!
As part of it’s anti-Trump protests in London over the weekend, the British anti-Trump resistance trotted out a mostly-life-sized Trump doll, and implored march attendees to “Thump Trump,” presumably to warm up for the real “Resistance” that doesn’t involve merely milling around and posting on social media (as the London protests mostly did).
The results do little to recommend the modern anti-Trump resistance. In fact, President Donald Trump can probably rest easy knowing they’d be mostly useless in any sort of real rebellion. Put down your coffee lest you spit it across your screen while watching the ensuing display of lethal athleticism.

That Nazi Trump hurt my wrist!
I find the sneer-a-thon over “soy boys” to be amusing considering the fact that the majority of Trumpistani denizens are morbidly obese neckbeards who experience angina whilst lifting anything above a weight of 25 pounds.

That pretty much sums up Rising Storm 2: Vietnam
Yeah Fat Trump Guy is always ready to tell you that his 2 years of playing HS football 30 years means that his 300 pound frame is “all muscle”.
Hey, look, it was 25 years ago and I’m only 260, not 300!
Confession, I’ve started using the term “Cuck” to talk about the unmanly looking left. “Neckbeard” for the idiots on the right. I think both labels fit.
Note to self – trim facial hair.
Lessee, Trump spends two hours trying to
Caption contest?
Twitchy fingers.
mend some fences and tone down some of the strife between the two countries that own 90% of the worlds nuclear weapons, and then he gets vilified for not ripping him a new asshole on the world stage right after that meeting. Trump really is Putin’s cockholster.
What did the pundits think he should do? Deck him in the jaw? Pepper spray him? Piss in his coffee?
The nice thing about Trump is he knows the media will hate him no matter what he does, so he makes no effort to appease them.
Stunning news from Vox. Gotta give credit where it’s due, that’s some razor-sharp analysis there.

I like pointing out that we decide the World Series by who wins the most games, not who scores the most total runs.
There is a wonderful timeline out there where the Cubs are still in their world series drought with this logic. Alas, we live in a shitty reality where Chicago sports fans are happy.
Just Cubs fans, not White Sox fans. And we deserve to be happy. Dammit.
Yep. I’ve heard that explanation before. It’s a good one, provided the proggie you’re speaking with knows anything about baseball.
Trump only won the presidential election because he won the presidential election.

To be clear, that is true of literally every president elected since the Constitution was ratified in 1788.

SHUT UP BRUCE IT’S A CHRISTMAS MOVIE AND THE BEST ONE EVER MADE SO SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTH

Mister Willis, just pretend to shoot the bad guy and collect the residuals. It really makes no difference to you that it’s because people watch the work around Christmas.
Tell that to Run D.M.C.
It’s Christmas, Theo, the season of miracles!
Now I have a machine gun. Ho…..ho…..ho.
Husband linked me that this morning. I said, “Shut your whore mouth!”
If I watch it every Christmas, that makes it a Christmas movie.
He’s right.
It isn’t /a/ Christmas Movie.
it is /THE/ Christmas Movie.
Megan McArdle on twitter:
I guess I’m not a patriotic American. Should I pack my stuff before being sent to an internment camp?
Why’s she still harping on Obama and the Ayatollah?
“American intelligence”….I love that I’m supposed to get the vapors over the supposed honor of a bunch of spooks.
I’m a little unclear on how Trump “aggrandizing” Putin is at the expense of American intelligence.
“the expense of American intelligence”
It’s kind of funny but really it’s deeply terrifying how journalists have been so completely suborned by the national security state. There was a time when journalists thought of the CIA as sort of a mortal enemy of transparency and honesty.
That was before the CIA opposed a Republican they hate…
This. The CIA/NSA/FBI have their sycophants all over the media now. After decades of conspiracy theories, I think it’s actually finally come true.
Journalists moved along to “If you can’t beat’em, join ’em.”
Ever since they learned that the permanent bureaucracy (including the IC) was in the tank for Hilldog and tried to rig the election. That causes them to make a mess in their panties.
Three Days of the Condor would be completely believable today EXCEPT for going to the NYT to publish the story
Well Nixon was a Republican the NYT hated…
David French on twitter:
I guess now I have two reasons to vote for Trump in 2020.
Just two?
And just after that charming Strzok fellow got done showing us all how delightful the hardworking the top brass at the FBI can be.
Always nice to know what the cuckiest of cucks thinks,
Again: nearly a decade of “smart diplomacy” which saw a failed coup in Syria, the collapse of Libya, and the near-collapse of Iraq, Russia annexed the Crimea with no real penalty, Iran given the green light to develop nukes, meddling in Israel’s election, a major uptick in drone warfare and the assassination of two American civilians, and meanwhile Obama making the rounds denigrating and downplaying the United States… but now, because this logorrheic chump mouths meaningless, platitudinous blather at Putin and Duterte and Un and Ping, I’m supposed to take special umbrage.
“I’m supposed to take special umbrage”
Well he is a Republikkkan after all…
this logorrheic chump mouths meaningless, platitudinous blather at Putin and Duterte and Un and Ping in between bouts of kicking them in the balls
Well, dunno about Duterte, but he has certainly kicked the other three good and hard since taking office.

Also a reminder: the chick that wrote the book about Hillary’s campaign said that Reines was a shitheel:
The undercurrent of sexism
Is this a reference to naming all the women, and none of the men? Because that seems kinda sexist to me.
Anyway the real reason the anti-war movement is dead is that it is a leftist movement. Right now the left is all about how Trump is a Russian puppet and destroying the “Liberal World Order” so the anti-war movement is useless to the left.
Well of course; that was confirmed by how the anti-war people disappeared magically into thin air the moment King Zero ascended to the throne in spite of the fact that he loved himself some drone striking.
I’ve moved into a new neighborhood while my house undergoes renovations. The new ‘hood is in the throes of dreaded gentrification. In walking the dog around the neighborhood, I’ve noticed a remarkable abundance of those professionally printed, smug yard signs that have popped up over the last year and a half, with slogans such as “Hate has no home here,” “In this house, we believe Black lives matter, science is real, [list of various other hobby horses],” “we love our immigrant neighbors,” etc., etc. Most of them are in front of pricey real estate. It occurred to me that the purpose is probably two-fold: (1) Of course to let the world know what wonderful, tolerant, righteous people live inside; and (2) to provide a marker that the house should be avoided during the coming race riots, crime wave, or whatever these folks feverishly fantasize their swarthy neighbors are going to get up to during the Great Gentrification Passover.
I can think of a third purpose:
Flagging your house as an easy target for burglary, home invasion, etc.
“This house is weathy, unarmed, and undefended.”
I forget who did it, but someone went around asking gun grabber types to put a sign saying “This House Is Gun-Free!” on their lawn, and no one wanted them.
Wouldn’t that have the opposite effect? If I’m a looter all those signs scream “I’m rich and Anti-Gun! C’mon in and don’t worry about getting shot”
I’m just planning on standing in your front lawn and masturbating, if that makes you feel any better.
At least sit down.
How can he go for a PR on distance if he’s not standing?
Mark Twain wrote a story about this once.
The Jumping Frog of Calaveras County?
Pudd’nhead Wilson and the Extraordinary Twins?
What does HM have against Puerto Ricans?
Or is “shooting” them from a standing position a good thing? I can’t keep up with the kid speak any more.
It’s a rental, so feel free to spread out in one of the chairs on the front stoop.
those signs scream “we’re house rich but cash poor”. most self-respecting thieves have no time for fencing beard oil and thumb rings.
“In this house, we believe Black lives matter, science is real, [list of various other hobby horses],”
My pulmonologist, ICU physician sister has one of these signs. I know her to be objectively intelligent. That’s what makes it so much harder for me to understand her being enthralled by meaningless slogans and thought-stopping clichés.
“Molon labe” is a slogan, but it has historical backing and meaning behind it. “Black lives matter” is a pointless tautology that’s been transformed into racialist propaganda.
I love/hate the “science is real” because it is so absurd to say. It is literally treating ‘science’ as a dogmatic religion which cannot be contradicted when it is a method that thrives off of diversity of thought.
“Indeed it is. Scientific conclusions, however, are always contingent.”
As are policy decisions. This is one of the things that irritates me about people like Skeptic Guide to the Universe, etc. They seem to completely lack any understanding of a distinction between scientific analysis and policies which result from such analysis. Well, that, and their easy default to authoritarianism in order to enforce said scientific analysis.
“smug yard signs”
please post photos
I’m gonna go out on a limb here and guess the owners of those signs are all (or mostly) white.
I suggest you join with your neighbors in publicly voicing your views through signage. May I suggest “science is real, there are only two genders”.
So they got Bill Plympton to weigh in on the Trumputin.

McCain is not happy…
Wasn’t he supposed to be room temperature by now?
Only the Good die Young?
I’m convinced he hasn’t resigned solely to either cast the 51st vote against Kavanaugh, or to cause a deadlock on Kavanaugh by being absent.
I doubt he has anything against Kavanaugh, but he obviously, desperately wants to do anything he can, at any price, to hurt Trump, who humiliated him by snatching victory from the jaws of defeat, rather than politely losing because
blackvagina.i would love to see McCain take some principled stand for democracy and vote against Kavanaugh only to have a handful of red state Dems up for reelection undercut him.
Was he as unhappy as his first wife when John McCain left her because she got injured?
Was he as unhappy as the people who were prosecuted under his law for exercising their Constitutional rights?
“Was he as unhappy as his first wife when John McCain left her because she got injured?”
I never knew this; read about it on Wiki, what a piece of shit he is (even more than I thought before). Basically, she almost died in a car wreck, he didn’t find out about it until he got home from Vietnam and found her fat and in a wheelchair. So he started fucking around and then dumped her. What a classy guy.
Yeah John McCain is a piece of shit, both personally and professionally. He crashed two attack jets and a trainer and still remained on flight status because hes the son and grandson of admirals.
Since the death of Ted Kennedy, there’s not been another politician who has a reputation for personal character and integrity that is less well deserved than John McCain’s. He is human garbage.
Or when he covered up the Vietnam POW issue?
http://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/mccain-and-the-pow-cover-up/
Was it as disgraceful as an American Naval Officer contributing to wartime propoganda for the enemy?
I got my all black cat when he was five. He loved at the shelter that whole time and was never adopted, but he was so adorable they let him stay. He has never weighed more than seven pounds and he’s got enormous green eyes. He greets me every morning and when I come home from work and spends most of him time trying to sleep on top of me. He’s also the only cat I know that adores belly rubs. He’s getting a bit old now and can’t jump anywhere, so I’m putting together a new cat tree with steps so he doesn’t have to haul himself up to his food. Our mostly blind pug thinks he’s a phantom and our 100 pound pit bull mix won’t mess with him, though all three can be found sleeping together from time to time.

They are halfway there already.
Compare:
1) Wearing a MAGA hat today in some neighborhoods of LA and NYC
2) Wearing a yarmulke in Berlin in 1937
Much difference?
Yes. I suppose I was being hyperbolic. I’m fairly sure if they actually tried that they’d get shot. Something like that won’t happen until their gun-grabbing is successful.
Actually I was agreeing with you. I realize now that the phrasing was ambiguous.
Perhaps not quite to the same level, but the harassment, dehumanization and vilification are all there. Throw in a heaping dose of institutional encouragement and we’re not far from something like that.
We are definitely on our way to it. I’m breathing a little easier about my guns with the Supreme Court shaping up the way it is, so it may be a bit longer than I thought it would be.
I think the counter would be “well you can choose your political beliefs, but ethnicity you are born with” which of course glides past freedom of concience. Now obviously a owner should be able to refuse service for any reason but it is a bad sign fot free society that people can suffer assault for their beliefs. Especially because often their beliefs are misrepresented to and by their attackers.
There are two types of cats.
I only ever meet the first.
Mine is the second. Hes wary of people for about thirty seconds until they rub his belly.
You know for a Russian puppet Trump really hasn’t done a whole lot to actually change US foreign policy. And how is demanding NATO countries increase defense spending and tariffs on China support the Putinite agenda?
I can see Putin being reasonably happy with anything that puts a dent in the Chinese. They have a long, historically unhappy border.
These people are just . . . deranged. They can’t see that Trump’s America Firsting, no matter how misguided in detail (seriously, tariffs?), is inconsistent with “colluding” with Russia (or anybody). They have to argue that Trump’s America First thing is just a pose (hard to sell), and that all the things he has done to put a dent in China, Russia, North Korea, etc. are just misdirections, a distraction from what he’s really doing to help those countries get a leg up on us (which is what, exactly?). That’s way deep in the conspiracy theory zone.
It’s all based on political expediency and pure personal spite. They hate Republicans and Trump and hitting him with being a Russian stooge is something they hope will end him and benefit the Democrats in November and 2020.
Just like how the “war criminal” Bush was hated for similar reasons rather than any real objections to the Iraq war. I mean Bush has apparently been forgiven judging by all the articles slobbering over the “Liberal World Order”.
I mean how seriously do these anti-Trumpers caterwauling really want to deal with Russia and China? Do they want to intervene in Ukraine or Syria or try to destroy China economically? Not really judging by their responses to Crimea and Syria. And witness how the MSM pivoted from “Trump is going to cause nuclear war with North Korea” to “Trump is selling out to North Korea!” shows they would hate him if he went all anti-Russia…
“These people are just . . . deranged”
Yes. They don’t care what happens in the world, they don’t care about the consequences, they don’t care what happens to the USA, if Trump does it, they’re against it.
If the Russians launched missiles at NYC, and Trump retaliated, they’d say Trump was being unhinged and aggressive.
They proved that when they defended MS-13.
You being up a good point about China. With Russian forces focused in the west (of Russia) it is probably unnerving to watch the Chinese build-up happening at the other end of that huge swath of territory Putin controls.
For being so anti-American, the Left sure has a very America-centric focus. They really don’t give a lot of thought to other countries’ geopolitical strategies that may not center around America.
Fucking hell I cannot type this morning. More coffee.
Morning? Where are you?
Japan.
There have apparently been like 100 editorials already written today declaring that Trump/Putin have declared some pact to Destroy Democracy and enslave the brown people of the planet, or something.
its pretty obvious most were written well in advance, and just had a few quotes thrown in to make them seem timely.
I think Frum wins the “Soppiest Pampers” award for most-hysterical take
The left has been very forgiving and polite up to now. It’s for the gloves to come off, and impeachment proceedings to start! And barring that, start saying really mean things on Twitter! WE CAN NO LONGER DELAY!
Only 100?
And I see Frum has been forgiven for “Axis of Evil” and Iraq.
Amazing how much of our “foreign policy” elites are purely motivated by personal spite. They are not really trying very hard to conceal it here….
They are not really trying very hard to conceal it here….
I will say that one of Trump’s genuine talents has been demonstrating, in no uncertain terms, that most of our policy elites have the mentality of a second-tier high-school “mean girls” clique. “Like, OMG, did you SEE how much Trump was kissing up to Putin? That is like, so. un. cool.”
Good lord…
Frum just went full Roper, you never go full Roper.
Has anybody actually seen this press conference or whatever it was? What exactly do Trump do or say? Did he get Russian Mafia tattoos? Give Alaska back? What?
He offered to pay them to take California.
Vlad instead gave concessions to make us keep it.
LOL
“I’ve already got all the commies I need, thanks, and I’ve got all the failing states I want on my borders.”
Does it matter at this point?
Those dumbasses are actively trying to instigate political violence. Whether they realize it or not, they’re playing with fire.
He didn’t cut an Ultimate Warrior promo on Putin and then take off his shirt, rub baby oil on his chest and greco-roman wrestle Putin for telling the world about how corrupt the Democrats are.
Facebook is full of hysterics today. I can’t count how many of my normally intelligent friends are posting things like, “United States, RIP. It was great while it lasted,” or, “Trump is siding with an authoritarian over our own intelligence community. It’s treason!”
All of these folks are lefties. Sadly, some of them are smart enough to know better.

Lovely pair of kitties!
We had an all-black cat and a tux. They were littermates and we got them when they were still kittens. The tux died at 11 about 3 years ago. The all-black cat died at 13 about 6 months (we had to put her down because of congestive heart failure). Then we got a pair of littermates who were rescues. They were about 8 weeks old. I was shocked when I read that people don’t adopt all-black cats.
My only concern about another all-black cat was because the old one was my husband’s devoted shadow, and he was devastated. I didn’t really know how he’d react to another all-black cat, but weirdly, Chunky Monkey (new boy) looks *nothing* like Blackberry (old girl), even though they’re both all black. Chunky’s littermate is a girl tortoiseshell with a bobbed tail (Snickerdoodle). First time I ever heard the word “tortitude,” and boy does she have one. Chunky is ornery but friendly and has trained us to play fetch with him.
We’d decided after the first pair that it was good to get them in pairs. Otherwise, one kitten would be lonely.
I have a Russian Blue named Kosmo. Clearly I am part of the vast Right Wing Rooskee conspiracy.
Nothing brings me closer to tears than thinking about how old my little dude is getting and what that means. He has been my shadow for years, greeted me from multiple deployments, and has been just wonderful. I dread that day.
It was more heartbreaking for me to watch Blackberry suffer so much than to see her go to sleep for the last time. She didn’t hurt anymore, yanno? What I had a hard time with was, with husband and kids out all day, there was no other soul in the house but me. I needed a kitty soul in the house somewhere, even if I never laid eyes on the actual animal all day.
Don’t make sad when I first get home You Guys, My kittah is rounding 19 yrs, old, and still going strong, don’t freak me out 🙂
Sorry Yusef!
Whoa, sorry! My bad. My only real point was we got two black cats in a row.
It’s alright, really. When We lost our DubZ the Melon Dog, my house went into mourning for 2 days, no working, cokking or cleaning, the 3 of us were Devastated.
/ Now I got’s My Belly Pooch!
Mo, we’ve had seven black cats spread out over a number of years – all orphans. All of them sweethearts.
Nothing brings me closer to tears than thinking about how old my little dude is getting and what that means. He has been my shadow for years, greeted me from multiple deployments, and has been just wonderful.
Euphemism of the year.
Sorry, Mustang, I couldn’t resist. The sight of gray on the muzzles of the Dean Beasts has the same effect on me.
Easily the hardest decisions I have ever had to make have been when to put my dogs to sleep when they have a wasting illness of some kind. I always put it off too long, which to me means that I have failed them at the last turn.
Superstition, of course, but also most facilities don’t allow black cats to be adopted in October because people want them around as Halloween decorations and then kick them out the door on November 1st.
That’s awful. 🙁
The same thing happens with rabbits on Easter.
Also chicks.
Our tux cat is a good one. She keeps the tabbies in line. She’s the type of cat youd find spread eagle in the middle of the street sunning herself.
My dad has an ailing black cat and my mom has her sister. Both of them got the cats right after they divorced almost 15 years ago. I’m kinda turned off to black cats because of the experience with that litter. Very skittish cats.
I still miss my tortie. She was bonded to me and absolutely hated my wife for stealing me away. She would get in between my beer bottle and my mouth to drink the beer. Even thought she was front declawed, she’d catch squirrels and birds and mice.
We have a pair of tortie sisters. One of them is relatively quiet, but very focused and intense and wicked smart. The other one is six pounds of bile and fury.

Brennan is a worthless POS clown.
Brennan is a worthless piece of shit lying son of a bitch that a lot of people take seriously unfortunately.
All this shit happened on Brennan’s watch at the CIA. What a fuckstick.
And nobody in the DemOp Media will call him on it.
“Mr. Brennan, you criticized President Trump for not holding Russia accountable for interfering in the 2016 election, and wondered how the national security team can continue to abide by this, and why they don’t resign. As head of the CIA while these Russian activities were going on, did you hold similar views about President Obama and his national security team? Why didn’t you resign?”
I’m watching a highlight reel from the Five, on Trumps speech right now, With Kennedy on the Left hand Side
https://youtube.com/watch?v=aofYx0FUHFI
“Man who voted for the Communist Party in an election accuses a political enemy of treason”
“So tell us, Mr. Brennan, as a former voter for the Communist Party (which received support from Russia), when did you stop supporting Russian involvement in US elections?”
Wait, they named the most recent Prince “Louis”? Are the Brits going to Renew the Plantagenet Claim to the Throne of France?
Probably named for his great-great-uncle Louis Mountbatten, who was blown up by the IRA (fuck you Peter King R-IRA).
Yo Tulip – thanks for the great recipe recommendation this weekend! I had some Kielbasa hotdogs left over from the Fourth that I was trying to figure out what to do with. After seeing your recipe I chopped em up, added a can of low-sodium black beans (probably moved with me from my last place in 2016), added a little salt, pepper, garlic powder (apparently I need to re-buy chopped garlic), rosemary, and then tossed in the rest of my leftover sweet chopped bellpeppers (also left over from the 4th). Turned out really well, although the bell pepper probably needed to be softened up a tad more beforehand or in a different pan.
Also pairs great with the new Devils Backbone Golden Pear Lager. Highly recommended.
That NYT Trump Bites sucks. Eleven people in the credits, and CPRM by his lonesome puts together far superior animation with a better plot & audio. Sad.
Somebody with a Twitter account should link CPRM’s superior version in that Twitter thread. Show ’em how its done.
Someone other than STEVE SMITH.
Doesn’t CPRM have a twitter?
I didn’t view it, but when I see 11 names attributed it stinks of an attempt to diffuse responsibility rather than an actual collaborative thing.
Look I love CPRM ( in a purely platonic sense) but claiming that Bill Plympton’s animation is far inferior is a derangement syndrome in and of itself. Like his politics or not Plympton’s animation is top notch.
Plympton’s work looks like a shaky cam version of a four year old’s drawing. I may be deranged, but he’s vastly overrated.
Alright get the cat butt ready, But comparing using a handful of crudely drawn images and then some off the shelf animation software to make them talk to drawing frame by frame, whether the images don’t float your artistic boat or not, is asinine. Shakey cam or no the fluidity and movement of Plympton’s work is one of a kind work and influenced and inspired countless animators.
Huh. It appears that I’m a douchebag Rooskie sympathizer. Putin just echoed my opinion as to why Trump didn’t rip him a new one.
“Why travel all the way across the Atlantic just to insult somebody?”

What is more nefarious of the Russians than supporting gun rights? Some are already dubbing her a spy…when she apparently just graduated from college and did little more than lobby.
What the hell is “Russian advocacy organisation Right to Bear Arm?” Do they advocated for gun rights in Russia? That doesn’t seem like something Puting would care for. Or…does she advocate for gun rights for Americans? You know, which also doesn’t seem like something Putin would give a fuck about, but which the media wants to tie to him to make it some somehow un-American.
The government is talking about putting this person in a cage. For vague assertions that she tried to influence Americans (not even necessarily government officials) in a pro-Russian way. EVERY FUCKING RUSSIAN I meet here in the US talks up Russia and acts slavishly patriotic., Can they call be charged? Or just the ones who support Trump and guns?
Let’s say she was “working at the direction of a high-level official who worked for the Russian Central Bank “. They say that like it means anything she did would be illegal, but I think whatever she did would have to be illegal regardless, wouldn’t it? If a Russian asks you to do something perfectly legal, that doesn’t make it illegal. So, what did she do?
She tried to “influence American politics”. Not a crime.
She founded a “pro-gun rights Russian advocacy organisation Right to Bear Arms”. Not a crime in this country, but probably is in Russia.
She tried to “infiltrate (oooh, scary! why not say “join”?) the NRA. Not a crime.
She wrote a term paper on Trump’s foreign policy. Not a crime.
She bragged she had connections and could use them to get people jobs. Not a crime. If it is, half of Washington would be behind bars.
Some fuckstick judge signed off on indictments and arrest warrants for this?
But much rushhhuh kunshpeerasee

“If a Russian asks you to do something perfectly legal, that doesn’t make it illegal. So, what did she do?”
If you’ve ever even spoken to someone in the grocery store who is a Russian national and you didn’t even know that, you’re guilty of Treason.
Seriously, there is nothing in that article that isn’t 100% protected by the First Amendment. She did a lot of talking (free speech), wrote a term paper (free speech), met with people (freedom of association), tried to join the NRA (freedom of association), founded a gun rights group (freedom of association).
Speech and associating with people can certainly occur in the course of committing actual crimes, but I’m still looking around for an actual crime here.
$20 says that “high-level official who worked for the Russian Central Bank” was more sugar daddy than espionage handler.
Just saw that story on Drudge. How is what she did different legally from what undocumented immigrant advocacy groups are doing? No Mexican nationals are lobbying in DC?
“On her Facebook page, Butina is featured prominently photographed alongside a number of American politicians and other high-profile figures, including Wisconsin Governor and former Republican presidential candidate Scott Walker and David Keene, the former president of the NRA.”
That’s all democrats need to go after some innocent person. Just another brick in the witch hunt wall.
Our Government sucks, and it’s getting scary, one wrong move and your Life is wrecked, it needs to stop
I concur.
What’s really amusing is that all of her activities that are supposedly a nefarious plot were included in her term paper. Its a dead giveaway – just like comic book villains can’t help but monologue about their evil plans, covert agents just can’t help but write term papers about their subversive plots.
“Tim Tebow has confirmed he is dating Miss Universe Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters.”
I wonder if he plans to keep doing this? Because if these ‘beauty’ contests keep trending in their current direction, in a few short years, the Winner of Miss Universe will be Triggly Puff. We’ll hear in the news, thinking it was FL man, about Tebow being bludgeoned to death and stuffed in a washing machine.
One hyphen in a name is a warning sign. I expect that additional hyphens have an exponential effect.

So, I see the media have been working themselves into a frenzy today to see who can churn out the most and most outlandish ‘PUTIN WINS IN FINLAND!’. So, what exactly did he win? Did they have a raffle?
With the eager assistance of the US media, I think he may have won a news cycle? All this breathless reporting about how he totally pwned Trump is certainly not going to do him any harm back home, that’s for sure.
I’d place a large wager that most of these articles were ready to go, yesterday. It is their modus operandi, after all. Reality is their narrative.
Shepherd Smith really hates Trump.

“The President of the United States won’t believe his own government over President Putin.”
Would that be the same government that’s been proven over & over to working for the Democrat establishment’s goals, and has been trying to undermine him
sinceeven before the election? That government?The President of the United States won’t believe his own government over President Putin
Pair that with video from Strzok’s testimony, and ask yourself “Can you blame him?”
Shep looks like he’s 10 years old. And boring, very, very boring. I mean I don’t watch Fox, but I do remember him, although, he’s very forgettable, as are most of them. But he’s now going to be the loony left’s newest hero. They’re going to forget all about Stormy and get right on Shep’s weeney.
For fuck’s sake, day 0 and the hyperventilation over low grade brain lint is already tiresome as hell.
You guys need to change your sleeping cycles. By the time I get up the temper tantrum has died to air sucking whimpering.
One of the good things about my schedule. By the time I get in a position to be able to check the news, it’s likely 4pm and maybe 5. The shitty diapers are getting cleaned up already and a new order put in for tomorrow.
I remember when the Trayvon story first erupted. It was already in full viral hysteria before rational people could parse the facts. If you tried to play it even handed, you were relegated to a game of whack a mole as absurd claim after absurd claim was made by the media. If there is no fire, at least the media can create a shitton of smoke.
I’m up and Ready for Late night links Straff! let the Tantrum Rise!
Unfortunately, I got 5 minutes before I gotta get to work. I leave the shenanigans in your capable hands.
Work smart, not Hard, the Nips will never catch on…….

You know, I remember back when I was a kid. I was curious and so I did watch the evening national and world news, frequently. Back in those days, a president was apparently supposed to meet with leaders of foreign governments. I don’t really remember anyone freaking the fuck out 24/7. In reality, what is going on here that is really sad, is that these irrational psychopaths are trying to prevent the guy from doing his job which he was hired to do. I mean you had Obama who intentionally didn’t do that job, but this is much worse.
I don’t get it either. Wasn’t Nixon a hero for meeting the Red Chinese, Carter for meeting Sadat and Arafat, and Reagan for meeting Gorbachev?
So are Presidents just supposed to meet with countries we are buddies with?
But drumf said nice things about put in, that means there is a conspiracy!
That’s Suderman’s take on it at TOS.
Is there anybody that Trump meets who doesn’t say nice things about to in person? He slathers Chuck Schumer in praise when they meet. He’ll insult someone, meet them the next day and then deny he said it and praise the person and his relationship with them to the heavens. We saw this recently with May.
But let’s look at the other dictator he supposedly admires or said too nice of things about – Kim. I mean, a few months before that he was accused of inciting him and threatening war with his insults.
But this – this being nice to Putin in person obviously means he’s an authoritarian in the pocket of the Kremlin.
The fact that they cannot figure out Trump, despite his very formulaic methods, which he repeats over and over again, only shows just how incredibly stupid they are. Charlie Brown’s, all of them. I mean how smart can you be if you claim to be a leftist? You’re either an ignorant dumbshit or you’re a Stalin wannabe. There’s no other options to choose from.
That’s the way I remember it. Way back when in a more sane world.
Nixon Goes to China, I ‘member…..
That did not turn out so well in the long run.
And let’s not forget FDR’s statesmanship for meeting Stalin in Yalta and giving him half of Europe.
“No George, you can’t go destroying the Soviet Army, they are our friends remember?”

Nope – way too honest.

She forgot the official reply.
‘The Trump tax scam has cost us twenty trillion kazillion billion children dollars!’
Um, it’s like the I-raq and such….
God dammit is there anyone with a literate and enlightened mind anywhere in fucking North American politics?
She is dumb as a box of rocks. “Capitalism won’t always exist. At our founding we weren’t a Capitalist country.”
I got my bachelor’s degree in Econ from a Marxist university. Even then i learned about the flaws in her thinking. Also having a bachelor’s degree in economics does not make you an economist.

Funny, but horribly inaccurate.

Yep. Given what I’ve seen from Shoe0nhead, I think it was meant to be sarcastic/get a rise out of her followers.

I ran across this via the other site, and I was reminded by how the most obvious and blatant cases of abuse and potential racial bias (only one officer involved cited a racial angle to the frame jobs) never generate the traction as the gray area ones. Also, the ring leader is not a white guy and has an obviously not white name, so… Google this and you won’t see a story from a single one of the prominent lefty outlets. Closest you get is one minor story from Politico.
“from Politico”
Dude, Politico, they hold the world’s top record of being wrong about everything, the most, ever. They make CNN and the NYT look like trustworthy guardians of the truth. I mean, on the other hand, it’s not that they try to be wrong, they’re just stupid. Unlike CNN and the NYT who are intentionally wrong to promote the commie agenda.
“An immigrant owner of a kosher cafe in downtown Los Angeles, Asher Shalom, has been targeted by a local anti-Trump group and had his membership revoked from the City of Commerce after it was found out that he is a supporter of President Donald Trump and allegedly holds “anti-immigrant” views.
Ironically, Mr. Shalom legally immigrated to the United States 30 years ago and currently employs 65 immigrants, he told The Daily Wire.
Asher Caffé & Lounge was targeted by an anti-Trump group known as “Defend Boyle Heights” (DBH) with a fierce protest, calls for boycott, and slanderous social media posts because of Mr. Shalom’s support for the president, his alleged “xenophobia,” and the cafe’s “gentrification” to the neighborhood.”

White kids grew up with stories of the civil rights era (im part of that Generation ). Most SJW stuff is White Kids wanting to do LARP of civil rights. I wouldn’t be suprised if they thought that MLK did the same tactics as they do. They don’t comprehend that they are coming from a position of priveledge, harming others for their own ego’s.
This. They seem to be completely unaware of the fact that they are the Man this time around.
As Mustang said upthread, we creep closer and closer to Kristallnacht.
If I were a nefarious and amoral troll, I would try to organize online a “National Night of Broken Glass” for all the #Resistance and antifa LARPers. 4chan should get on that.
Im guessing he might hold anti-illegal immigrant views, not anti-immigrant views. But of course the establishment doesn’t make a distinction anymore.
I wish these fucks would make up their minds. Either white flight is a horrible thing, or gentrification is. You don’t get to have it both ways.
The did make up their minds – anything white people do is bad.
Sure you can have it both ways, all you need is to not have scruples or ideological consistency.
I’m disappointed to learn that the bj league is not what I hoped it was.
