Hey guys, how’s it going? Happy Thursday to everyone. We’re working on a rule in my house: it’s okay to be unhappy when you don’t get your way, it’s not okay to cry about it. Step 1 is: the crier goes to his room until he can express himself without crying. Step 2, coming December 1, is that I start revoking privileges and sending people to their rooms. Hopefully, Step3 — Operation I’ll Give You Something to Cry About does not become necessary January 1. Call me sexist, but there’s nothing worse than boys who whine. They’ll become men who whine if not corrected.
Beloved certified crazy-Glib dbleagle was kind enough to share with us a PDF version of Ain’t Nobody’s Business If You Do which we have available on our downloads page. It was a heavy favorite from last night’s book post. I will be taking the time to read it in the near future.

Finally, returning to the subject of toxic masculinity, I’d like to take a second to honor Ventura County Sheriff’s Sergeant Ron Helus. We always complain that the cops don’t go right in to these active shooting situations and he did, losing his life. Godspeed, Sgt. Helus, you did the right thing putting yourself in harms way.

Nothing is over until we say it is! Broward County is still finding and counting votes.
As a Broward County resident I can tell you with 100% confidence that this is due to sheer incompetence and not anything nefarious.
I don’t care. There should be severe repercussions for fucking with the election. If they are that dumb, they should not be involved in the process.
My money’s on “both”
Everything’s totally on the up and up in Broward County, nothing to see here
Ho. Lee. Shit.
What the fuck? The whole county should be void. There is no way that is protocol if that video is true.
“We don’t need no stinking photo IDs.”
I was just on here and TOS talking about my incompetent election supervisor. It is amazing.
She’s the same one from the 2000 election.
We are the last to report in, every year.
And the big chunk is from early voting.
How in the hell are early votes late being counted? BTW, they use the exact same machines for early voting… .so why in the world were they not tallied at the time?
I’m calling shenanigans. It is an electronic process. They give you a ballot, you fill in the ovals and then you scan your ballot in. The machine totals and sends the results by modem at the end of the day.
So what happened with the early votes? Why are they “counting” them for days? I have a suspicion that they are double counting votes in there.
Early voter turnout in Florida was heavily republican. And at record levels. Yet only the heavily democrat areas seem to have trouble counting the votes.
Yeah…. shenanigans.
Snipes said she would stay and keep counting until they found enough votes to ensure a win by Al Gore back in 2000. Nobody seemed to be impressed by that statement at the time. And we’ve had long delays with wild swings in vote totals in every election. This isn’t their first time around on this merry go ’round.
Plus, they are claiming that there was a significant “undervote” in Broward… with people voting for lieutenant governor but not governor and senator. So they are claiming that this must be due to a configuration error in the scanners and there’s thousands of uncounted votes – but just for the disputed elections… And somehow exclusively in heavily democrat areas.
Yeah…. shenanigans.
People need to stop tucking their tails between their legs over this. Voter fraud happens, everyone knows it happens (JFK winning by cheating is a mainstream joke), anyone with a lick of sense (i.e. anything less than blind Pollyanna faith in strangers) ought to realize that – given the stakes – it’s inevitable in democratic elections; but few are brave enough to say the truth outright, let alone actively counter it.
That might’ve been Reason’s biggest “we’re just a bunch of fucking tools” moment, the denial of the existence and significance of voter fraud.
Democrats are going to win District 3 in NJ with provisional ballots. That leaves one Republican Rep for the whole state. The rest were all gerrymandered or frauded out.
Hunting in a random jungle, what sort of game might the characters find?
STEVE SMITH FIND THEM!
Are we talking a jungle similar to South America, Africa, or Asia? They all have different things.
Yes.
This is a fantasy setting and all I have in my mental map is “Jungle”. I know the coast has mangroves and there are ferns…
In that case, how about a blue dog democrat?
Boar seems to be a fantasy staple. Could have a threat from some kind of big cat. Rodents of unusual size?
I had the first two thoughts. I was also wondering if that was too common. That’s why I’m asking for ideas.
Capybera?
Okapi if you want exotic
I’m still looking that up. Haven’t heard of it before.
I thought the okapi was a grassland ungulate.
[goes off to check]
So apparently the okapi does live in forests.
You learn something new every day.
Or Saola?
Trouser snakes.
This is a fantasy setting and all I have in my mental map is “Jungle”.
Wood elves.
They already slaughtered the elves. They narrator just barely escaped being sacrified to their diety, so they aided a rebellion, stole a ship and are bringing the handful of surviving slaves to their home ‘nation’ (loose cluster of nomadic peoples) The problem was lack of food.
“The problem was lack of food”
Wood elves corpses
Too late, they burned them when looking the settlement.

NYMPHS!
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jesse Ventura.
The MOST most dangerous game
Correct answer.
How many future governers were in that film?
Look at the animals in any random Jungle and compare them to any other jungle’s fauna. You will find similar critters occupying similar niches, 99.99999% of which will be insects.
Forest cow (tapir) – elephant. Tiger – jaguar. Python – anaconda. take your pick of birds feeding on flowers, fruits, nuts, insects, small animals. If you are looking for game there isnt much: tapir, capybara, monkeys, okapi, various asian buffalo….that’s all I can think of off of the top of my head.
Jungles dont have a lot of animal life. Even the ones that are there are there in small numbers.
How about they go to hunt and find nothing. No birds, no insects. No animals. Nothing.
Boom!
Isn’t that a Star Trek episode?

RE: Emu and donkey.

Hard to say but one of them is hung like a donkey.

Sgt. Helus had some serious balls. Maybe not the best tactics, but I wasn’t there so maybe it was a no-win situation and he went in anyway.
A man who actually took his duty seriously; far too rare nowadays.
Indeed. Within a year of retirement and still charged in. RIP.
Yep. Credit where it’s due.
Yeah, a smoke filled bar filled with gunshots seems like it might be an impossible situation. The guy was a stud.
I don’t think they are filled with smoke any more.
Certainly not in California.

True story: I take a team to a major truck supplier’s engineering offices to show off our lane maintenance system which included self-parking. First thing that morning, the client’s engineering lead was in our demo vehicle when we put our system in charge for a test in the parking lot; it promptly crashed itself into that very engineer’s new car, innocently parked nearby.
That afternoon, my lecture/demo/pitch in their main corporate auditorium (capacity ~1,000) went basically unattended.
Yay team.
Yikes. Hard to salvage that.
but we were wearing matching logo button-downs and ties: oozing with competence!
Been there. Nothing quite as invigorating as a failed demo.
I’m not sure there is any other kind.
BTW, not my product, just my embarrassment: I took a sister division to see my client.
international conglomerate FTW
I remember working on a project for a company that made outboard motors. One of the best things about it was I got to visit their boatyard where they test out the motors on all sorts of boats. I remember one 30+ft cabin cruiser that was pretty banged up. When I asked what happened, the client said “you know that self-docking software? Doesn’t always work first time out.”
I made a ton of points with the client on that trip. I was like a kid in a candy store, gushing about all the boats they had there. The client liked that I knew a lot about the boats. What sealed the deal though was when he asked me what kind of boat I owned and I said “None. I just have dumb friends who bring me along in their boats. That way I don’t have to waste my own money.” He laughed out loud at that and told me I was a smart cat.
BTW, I hate all this glommed on man-steps and other “idiot-proofing” but sometimes the company you work for wants to sell sizzle instead of steak.
It has not been my world for a long time.
Fuck that. I have the step on my truck and it’s the bomb. If they keep making these fucking things so tall I’m gonna need a ladder.
I remember buying a Chevy S-10 and being dazzled that there were no holes for stakes (or any other tie down points for that matter). How the hell was I supposed to keep things from flying out of the bed of my truck?
Granted the S-10 drove a LOT smoother than the Ford Ranger that I got next.
It would be interesting to know how many trucks/suv’s never ever leave the pavement and drive on gravel or dirt roads.
I ran the bolts out of the bed and installed D-rings. Easy mod.
I did something similar. I was just flummoxed that a large truck making corporation wouldn’t think something like that was mandatory.
It also made me never tailgate S-10’s. My gut feeling is a lot of morons aren’t as worried about tying down their load as I am.
Probably true.
I’m kinda embarrassed that I can’t just hose out my truck anymore: even 15 years I couldn’t find a basic work truck on a lot anywhere.
Mine’s been through every stitch of back-country I could find between Houston and Casper, often dragging four tons of trailer as I went. But I’m no hero: it’s just being careful with 400 lb-foot of Chevy, the unbeatable 4L80E trans, and letting the Michelins get it done. Most risky flat: several miles off-road in the Big Bend, but that worked out. Hardest escape: so deep in some ruts that the trailer foot buried like a middle-buster in a stratum of eight inch rock…took over an hour to dig out.
I had a Jeep CJ7. Need to clean it? Pull out the ‘carpet’ and just hose the thing down. I do miss that.
I used to just hop up from the tailgate into the back of my truck (work topper style on the bed), until I was coming out of it one time and lost my footing/grip and went backwards onto some cardboard boxes and the asphalt. I keep a fold up stool in the back and use it if I have to reach in any further than arm’s length.
I’d use that man step and wouldn’t think twice about it.
Love the musical selection!
RIP Mariska.
Looks like a new Subaru Forester is coming out on top in my hunt for an AWD vehicle. They are apparently the only company in America that will provide a price quote. Like a good cheap ass libertarian I’ve been contacting pretty much every dealership in the state to make those assholes compete for my business.
Literally every dealership I contacted for the other companies responded with ~46 emails offering me dealer financing and discounted options, extended warranties etc without ever quoting me a price and telling me I really need to talk to them on the phone so they can tell me all the wonderful options available to me. Then they proceeded to call me EVERY. SINGLE. DAY to ask if they can answer any questions even after I told them to go fuck themselves.
Every single Subaru dealership just sent me a quote like a normal fucking business. They did not call me or harass me in any way. Seems kinda hard not to go with them at this point.
Did you miss the Wednesday night posts in October. At your own risk.
Nice. All the other lesbians will be jealous of your new ride.
^^^ ROFL
One of the perks of buying a Subaru is 20% off coupons on your next 5 U-Haul rentals.
I understood that reference
Hardly. They all have their own.
In Northern Colorado roughly 70% of the cars on the road are Subarus and the remainder are trucks (like 70% of the trucks are Tacomas and all other trucks combine for the remaining market share)
Once I get a little dirt on the new Forester I’ll be pretty much invisible around here.
Subarus are also the official car of northern Minnesota. Install a storage pod on top and a coexist bumper sticker and you will fit right in.
The storage pod conceals the mounted minigun, right?
No, an ancient pair of cross country skis and some empty growlers.
I had a sketch idea for an “honest backup camera” that would repeat “LESBIAN LESBIAN LESBIAN if you were coming close to hitting a Subaru or “REDNECK REDNECK REDNECK” if you were close to hitting a truck with a gun rack in it. There were others I can’t remember now
Negroni outed as a lesbian.
Slum beat me to it.
Nice car.
Way cooler than the old ones.
The same thing with Hyundai. I love their cars and we were looking to buy 2018 Tuscon (we already have a 2014 Sonata). I called around and none of the dealerships except the one in Lincolnwood gave me a semi straight answer. All they wanted to talk about were how to finance the car. I went to one on the near the Northwest Side of Chicago and I overheard one of the managers say, ” I don’t give a fuck what you have to do to get the guy to buy the car. You aren’t his friend.” Like I know that on a fundamental level, but for the love of Bob don’t say out loud that a customer near by can hear you. I immediately left.
We have a 2010 Sonata and will either be adding another one of similar vintage for a stop-gap second car, or buying a Tucson or Santa Fe. (Really, a Kia Sportage would do.)
Our current Sonata was purchased used from a dealer in Austin. It had been a rental agency car. We picked it up with 27k miles on it for half price, with the remainder of the 100,000/10 year warranty on it. Been a champ and now has over 180k miles on it.
I’ve been looking around at Hertz Car Sales lately.
I had a Santa Fe. Great car. Absolutely no complaints. Thinking about getting a little Kia hybrid soon.
And I have done my car buying via the “internet sales” route since the 90’s. Research the price you want and see if they can beat it.
Old school dealers want to do “the grind” with you… .making you wait for hours. Just leave if they do that. They’ll come around.
Car Max will give a straight quote – for both buying and selling. That’s the benchmark. You can beat their prices, but they make it really easy.
Yup. I almost ran over a sales guy by accident as I was leaving once.
I rented a Sonata when we were in Hawaii in July and I was really pleasantly surprised. Comfy, handled well, plenty of power.
We got a Jetta when we went to Maui and I’d take the Sonata over that in a heartbeat (Jetta was less comfortable, less power, and didn’t handle as well).
i was looking at Subarus lately after borrowing the inlaw’s Outback for a week, then stumbled over to Toyota to checkout their v6 Highlander. way too big. that thing is like driving my living room around. now i’m waiting for the new Rav4 to test drive. Toyota revamped their Rav4 for 2019 but it won’t be out until December. switched to the larger platform used for their Camry so it’s roomier with more cargo than the 2018 model. AWD available. same 2.5L 4-cyl engine as the Camry so 204HP 185ft/lb. price competitive with the Forester.
/infomercial off
The new RAV4 was on the list, but I prefer the Subaru’s true AWD to the Toyota FWD with a sensor that will activate the other wheels as you slide to your death. I also like the Subaru having a higher clearance (helps with all the shitty roads around here and when bouncing my way out to a trailhead)
That said I would be happy with a Toyota (my dad drives a highlander and my brother a RAV4 and my other car is a 2018 Camry) but all of the dealerships pissed me off with their obsessive hardsell bullshit.
the 2019 has three different AWD options. one is the “dynamic” option but there’s also the standard one.
“way too big. that thing is like driving my living room around”
Know what you mean. I drive a Ford F150. A few years back I flew to Denver and was really exited about renting and driving a car. It had been years. When I got to the rental counter, the only vehicle they had was a Ford Excursion. And it too was like driving my living room around. Hated it.
Yeah, we had the 03 Highlander and it was big enough, but the newer ones are basically Sequoias now. Ridiculous.
Big but not roomy at all. The third-row seating is a death trap.
Bought a Honda Pilot instead. It’s big but easy to drive. Second-row captains chairs mean lots of room for the kids (15,11) on vacation.
My Explorer got 18.5 mpg. The Pilot gets me 23.5.
About 15 years ago, pheasant hunting on opening week near Presho, SD, we had like 10″ of snow at night mid-week. The next morning, one of my cousins who’d had to drive there in his old 4WD Subaru SUV had to pull-start the host/guide’s great big 3500 dualie Dodge twice on snow-covered gravel roads. Guide was a little embarrassed at the sight. Since then I’ve had a soft spot for Subarus.
Did you try to get a web quote. I made out getting several online quotes from multiple Ford dealers. The best part was that they provide a written record.
That’s all I did. I don’t pick up the phone if I don’t have to. The Ford dealers I contacted were among the more egregious offenders, but not the worst. Toyota had em beat by a mile in the “FUCK OFF AND DIE AND NEVER CALL ME AGAIN” category.
Heh, I made a few Toyota dealers quote me on a truck years ago. They didn’t want to do it. When I selected the lowest bid, one of the other salesmen got pissed and asked why he didn’t get a second chance. I told him “What part of give me your best price didn’t you understand?”
My VW chick is the best. Aggressive, honest and smoking hot. I’ve bought two cars from her and both times it was flawless.
I wish VW made pickup trucks…
They used to. In fact, I learned how to drive stick in one.
https://www.foxnews.com/auto/volkswagen-tarok-pickup-is-a-transformable-truck
Lol. Yeah, I saw that, but I don’t think that’s gonna replace my F150…
Hold on to your butts. Likely coming soon.
I’ve seen new VW Amaroks down in Mexico.
I had this happen years ago when I bought my Ford Ranger. A guy in out state had such a good deal (and delivered it) that I went with him. The Ford salesman who worked across the street from me sent me an email IN ALL CAPS when he found out I bought it from someone else. Even bitched that I should have given him a second chance because he could have beaten that deal.
Like you, I told him that he needed to work on his reading comprehension skills.
“Berating me has just cost you any chance at my business in the future. Good bye.”
Pretty much exactly my response (and I cc’ed the sales manager at the lot). You forgot “I am also going to tell anyone who will listen to me about your poor business practices.”
That’s only because nobody listens to me.
Has anyone used one of those services like TrueCar (or whatever it is) that is supposed to tell you if you are getting a good deal or not?
My wife usually handles all the bargaining when it comes to cars in our family. Like you, she calls/emails everyone. Then she decides which one she wants. My only contribution is to show up when we pay/pickup the vehicle and tell the guy he has an hour to get everything done. If it isn’t done in an hour, I’m walking.
I used cargurus .com for my used car. saved alot of time searching.
I wanted an AWD with a manual transmission, I got this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcMH9xYdujE
I’m enjoying it.
Do you have Geico? They have an excellent car program to provide the you are talking about. Edmunds.com also has one.
You just input your car model and you’ll immediately receive the lowest 5 quotes from participating dealers around you. At least one is usually excellent from a dealer who offers their rock bottom price. Just make sure you use a throwaway email.
Yeah, USAA has a similar type deal. Pretty sweet if you hate dicking around with salesmen and know what you want.
Speaking of sales, had a meeting with a Bloomberg Law rep today to look at their in-house counsel product. Their rep was one of the prettier women I have seen in a long time, and she knew how to do that “business dress that isn’t at all revealing but you can’t stop staring” thing. Reasonably smart, too.
No idea what their product does. I think I scheduled a followup, though.
Bloomberg Law isn’t half bad. Not head-and-shoulders above Lexis or Westlaw, but certainly competitive. They have some more business related features that the others don’t do quite so well.

Some interesting Elon Musk comments regarding the press:
Q: But the ones that I think I do want to ask about is the press. You pick fights with the press over Twitter, and then you have all your fans, of which there are many. Are you aware of what they do once you start them off?
Elon: Well, I have to say, my regard for the press has dropped quite dramatically. The amount of untruthful stuff that is written is unbelievable. Take that Wall Street Journal front-page article about like, “The FBI is closing in.” That is utterly false. That’s absurd. To print such a falsehood on the front page of a major newspaper is outrageous. Like, why are they even journalists?
Q: Do you understand — Elon: They’re terrible. Q: Do you hear — understand the mood in this country … Elon: Terrible people.
Q: I get that, but do you understand the mood in this country around the press and the dangers of attacking, especially when the president is doing that? In quite an aggressive, “enemy of the state” and everything else. It’s disturbing when someone like you as a leader does that, too, or goes along with it.
Elon: The answer is for the press to be honest and truthful, and research their articles and correct things properly when they are false. Which they don’t do.
Q: Okay. But I’m asking if you understand where it goes to. Elon: Yes, of course I do.
Q: What do you think of that? Are you worried about unleashing a dangerous cycle that a lot of the press are worried about? Justifiably.
Elon: I suggest the press take it to heart and do better.
Q: What about what Donald Trump does, about “enemy of the people”? Do you look at it that way? Elon: No.
Q: Just that you don’t like falsehoods.
Elon: Yeah. There are good journalists and there are bad ones, and unfortunately the feedback loop for good versus bad is inverted, so the more salacious that an article is, the more salacious the headline is, the more clicks it’s gonna get. Then somebody is not a journalist, they are an ad salesman. Not a journalist, an ad salesman.

Are you trying to get me to like him?
Seconded
I never liked him and regarded him as sort of the monorail salesman from The Simpsons, but that was golden.
I like that journalists as a class have found their position in the victimhood stack.
I like that some people are calling them out on their BS.
lol, that’s exactly what they’ve done, huh?
Victim points and entitlement for everyone!
Pretty much. I also like the interview tactic of, “Hey Elon. I’m here to talk to you about your various pursuits, but can we take a good long while to talk about my profession and all the hardships we endure in this dark age?”
I had a big rant about this on TOS this morning. The press conference with Trump yesterday was a glaring example of how terrible the press is. Nearly every question was about some irrelevant, made-up controversy. And even after he called them out on it… twice… the next guy from YahooNews asked multiple questions about allegations from some rapper that he used the words “Uncle Tom” while filming “the Apprentice” 20 years ago.
So unbelievably incompetent. You have a chance to ask the most powerful guy in the world a question, and that’s what you come up with? Yahoo should replace that guy post-haste. But they won’t, because he’s doing what they want him to do, instead of doing journalism.
After watching a Trump press conference for the first time yesterday, all I have to say is people are insane if they think Trump is unrestrained. Trump is stoicism incarnate. It was painful to see adult professionals behave that way.
I can’t imagine what the media would say if a Fox News reporter asked Obama 1/10 of what the MSM was throwing during that conference. If I was pres, I would have revoked every press pass there and started over with alternative news sources.

Totally not the same thing in any way. Saying “enemy of the people” is a million times worse than trying to kick in someone’s front door when their wife is home alone with the kids. And a million times worse than grabbing someone’s food at a restaurant and throwing it out on the street.
Trump actually said it twice! TWICE! The guy is literally worse than Hitler. Journalists are heroes for simply having the courage to get out of bed in the morning after Trump sent out a tweet.
Let’s get our priorities straight.

You know Democrats don’t really have appear to have that great a hold on Hispanics. Republicans have a stronger hold on Whites.
I was just about to say that: the more interesting numbers to me are the Republican numbers among Hispanics and Black men.
It’s long been a talking point here in Texas that Republicans need to do a better job courting Hispanics, and can absolutely do so.
Although I read some negative things from Republicans sometimes, the Hispanics I know are not all lefty socialists. They are hard working, strong family values, pro-life, and mostly want to be left the fuck alone.
The ones here legally really don’t care much for the illegal ones either.
I think the right-leaning types should take care with that rhetoric. This is really about simple, easily enforceable rules and not about race. We should want to make it easy to work &, hard to become citizens, and encourage people to come here for the right reasons.
I’ve read several stories that claim that, the longer they are here, the “whiter” Latinos get and the more they vote Republican.
Well, it was exactly the same thing with the Irish, Italian, and Polish catholics, and would not be surprising at all.
Half the kids on my daughter’s soccer team, btw, are a hispanic mix now of some sort. The whole identity of Hispanic is even dubious in the first place. Is it really deserving to be call en ethnicity? It’s definitely not a race.
the “whiter” Latinos get
When they start going to Taco Diner, let Ray Washburne know he can relax.
Makes sense to me. One of my best friends in the Marines was a Texan named Valdez. His family had been in Texas going back to the 1800s and the dude was indistinguishable from your average white Texas redneck – cowboy boots, hat, dipped Copenhagen, went hunting, drove a lifted F-150. If his name had been Smith, you’d think he was just a white boy with a tan.
It’s long been a talking point here in Texas that Republicans need to do a better job courting Hispanics, and can absolutely do so.
True on both points. Re: the second point, see Abbott’s reelection exit polls. In his English-language ads (that I heard, at least), he basically went with the Trump message (strong economy + secure borders) in a more polite manner, and he walked away with 42% of the Hispanic vote.
I was just about to say that: the more interesting numbers to me are the Republican numbers among Hispanics and Black men.
Not really: the gender gap is, and has been (at least as long as I’ve been paying attention), universal. A good rule of thumb is to take any group’s average vote for the Rs and +5 for the male vote and -5 for the female vote of that group.
And IIRC inside that gender gap, there’s an even bigger one between married an unmarried women.

When I was a kid I met Chris Roberts playing tennis on another court at a country club. Once we knew who he was my friends and I were excited to meet him since we were huge Wing Commander nerds. Roberts totally blew us off and big timed us about how he was too busy to chat with fans for 2 minutes.
What a dick.
Yeah dude you’re a huuuuuuuge celebrity. Too busy getting all that wing commander tail to talk to some kids.
Oh yeah?
Well then fuck that game!
I met Richard Garriott once at a conference, and he was awesome. Totally took time out of his day to talk to me about one of my projects too.
He was also wearing a shirt that was a big Texas flag. Goofy guy.
Honestly I’m not surprised. He seems like an amiable goofball in every interview.
I have absolutely no idea who Chris Roberts is, so I’m skeptical as to how huge a celebrity he is.
I’m like that with basically any movie star someone names.

Asshole. He probably thinks the Red Army Faction was a force for good.
What I said in the last thread applies here – while it’s a violation of the NAP, and I am not a violent person, I would really like to see this asshole take a few shots to the face.
That’s the thing about guys like him. They tend to be limp wristed cowards in real life. They’re well aware of this, so they spend years honing their agitation skills to get other people to do the dirty work for them. I’d bet a paycheck that any fight this guy ever gets into ends almost immediately with him on the ground clutching his jaw.
No, there’s also the possibility it ends with him clutching nose, gut, or groin, and the chance that he’ll just be KO-ed in one hit.

He advocates genocide for whites, but he looks pretty pale. Maybe he should start with himself.
The always the thing, lol. Anti-white rhetoric derives, in my estimation, mostly from white people. Self-hatred is powerful. Or they’re hoping that claims of “I’m not, like, a regular whitey; I’m a cool whitey” will give them a leg up among their progressivist peers. (It seems to work, mostly. I hope the temporary aggrandizement is worth it.)

What about a Dodge Caravan?
Is he concerned about the etymology of all vehicle names – or only those built by Dodge?
This person apparently missed the airings of Caravan of Courage.
I thought words meant what we wanted them to mean?
Someone’s got to think real long and hard to come up with something this stupid.
Oh, and I guess we’ll go back to using “mob,” then.
Caravans in the American mind are foreign to the Western Hemisphere or western culture.
WTF? Its not super-common, but I hear the word used to describe any identifiable assemblage of vehicles, like when a bunch of fans go to an out-of-town game.
Fine. It’s not a caravan. It’s an invasion column.
Convoy!
I haven’t seen that movie, but the clip makes it look pretty libertarian.
It’s an entire movie about ignoring regulation and casts cops as shitty power hungry petty dictators, so yes.
It’s also another word for “trailer”. As in, “You know, I bet a lot of those Central Americans are riding up to the border in caravans”.
Caravan…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySyBMTo-1sc
And the name “caravan” was benighted upon the travelers by their left-wing immigration activist organizers, not the President nor the GOP. The media in the US dutifully reported on the existence of the “caravan” from the moment they organized.
The entire thing was clearly a “progressive” NGO idea that backfired. The plan was to have a mass of people at the border getting “mistreated” by Trump right at election day. But they failed in that mission. And then, as with everything, Trump stuck it in their ear.
Fake news was their creation too, if you will recall.
Not to mention that the Caravan is a popular family vehicle.
But yes, it’s totally a word that is only used to whip up fear of scary A-rabs. Gotcha.

“How can I explain periodicity to those to whom this is remote? ”
Since my major was chemistry it is not remote to me.
The fact that emotionally unstable nuts like that are given megaphone is a testament to the complete moral and professional corruption of our mass media industry.
It would be almost worth it to write a column rebutting this shit.
“You know why were are big and violent? Because of you women! When it came to deciding who to fuck back in the cave, you boned the big violent men who came back successfully from their trips jabbing mega-fauna with pointy sticks. The bigger and the more violent the guy, the more meat he brought back and the more action he got. Those genes got passed along way more than the genes of runts.”
There’s a lot of truth in that.
It’s one reason I’m especially irked by women who complain about “toxic masculinity” – they know damn well that they are most attracted to men who are physically strong, assertive, confident, respected, and wealthy, yet they disparage men who try to be all of those things.
Everybody knows that’s not true. Cave ladies swooned over the sensitive guys that brought home organic nuts and berries and sang love grunts to them on guitars they fashioned out of coconut husks and twine.
Love Grunts would be an awesome band name.

Counter-point: a lot of ancient copulation was less than consensual, and whichever tribe had the biggest, strongest, most aggressive males often got to steal the females and kill the male competition.
Counter-counter-point: the women who raised bigger, stronger, more aggressive sons (“come back with this shield, or upon it”) generally had a secure retirement program – a share of the plunder.

BBC on Climate Change:
8. Should I think about how many children I have (or don’t have)?
Nicholas’s study concluded that having fewer children is the best way to reduce your contribution to climate change, with almost 60 tonnes of CO2 avoided per year. But this result has been contentious – and it leads to other questions.
One is whether you are responsible for children’s climate emissions, and the other is where are these babies born.
If you are responsible for your kids’ emissions, are your parents responsible for yours? And if you are not, how should we consider the fact that more people will likely have more carbon emissions? We also could ask whether having offspring is a human right beyond questioning. And we could ask if having children is necessarily a bad thing for solving climate change: our challenges may mean we will need more problem-solvers in future generations, not fewer.
http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20181102-what-can-i-do-about-climate-change
To allow children, or not… it’s a conundrum.
Not really.
Child tax.
Only woke smart people are allowed to have children without restriction.
If only there was some historical evidence somewhere of a people putting in practice a policy of restricting childbirth.
Encouraging these Chicken Littles not to have children. I can get behind that.
Only if they are also prevented from teaching other people’s children.
Oh, right. It’s a matter of force agains the hoi polloi, not personally acting out your supposed beliefs.
First they said they needed third world immigrants because the native birthrates were too low. They are still importing savages and now they are encouraging the natives to stop reproducing. It’s almost like the elites are deliberately replacing the common folk with a peasant class.
One of the issues I have with having both depressive disorder and being on the autism spectrum is that I have a lot of trouble processing things when they go wrong, and I get angry very easily, with little way to release that anger. Which means I bottle everything up, which creates a pretty awful feedback loop.
You ever see that episode of The Simpsons, where a hurricane hits Ned Flanders’ house, and he finally flips on everyone, and it comes out that he’s been repressing rage for decades?
It’s kind of like that. Except I can’t let it out.
So I argue with random people on Twitter.
Which makes things worse.
Bah.
Sorry. Needed to rant and ranting to you chucklefucks is all I can do.
I have anger issues. Have had them all my life. To avoid inflicting my anger on the people in my life, I yell about things a lot online, and I feel better. What you said sounds perfectly normal to me.
I used to love arguing with random people on Reditt. I havn’t been there in a year or so and have yet to get into a good argument on twitter. Nothing wrong with owning idiots regardless of where they are JB.

*JB flees in terror*
To be fair, I’m not only fleeing because you’re Florida Man.
I always found the ‘you have to vent or you explode’ narrative to be false.
I have a lot of repressed anger and no outlet.
Even on the anonymous internet, saying the sort of things I often want to say will either 1) result in a subpoena (which makes it even worse because folks of other political orientations can say far, far worse and be promoted) and/or doxxing or 2) have no effect because its like yelling at a brick wall (an NPC even) or playing chess with a pigeon.
Hell the chilling effects of the totalitarians had me on the verge of wiping this comment rather than hitting post, and this is a pretty innocuous statement. If you don’t hate white men, you have no safe outlet to vent.
That likely won’t end well. Since all the vents are pointing at one distinct group, that group is likely to overheat at some point.
This is why I oppose any kind of “treatment” for gender dysphoria in minors other then psychiatric.

Socialist paradise
Rafael Toro, a student at Venezuela’s top veterinary school, suspected something was amiss when a beloved horse called Miss Congeniality didn’t greet him at the fence one recent morning along with others in the campus’ small herd.
The bright-eyed, bay-colored mare had earned her nickname for helping disabled students overcome their fear of riding horses. They say she was smart and even trotted up when you called her name.
To his shock, Toro discovered the horse’s skin and dismembered bones hidden among trees in the corner pasture of the sprawling campus in the central Venezuelan city of Maracay. Thieves overnight had hopped the fence, slaughtered the horse and made off with her meat — either to sell or to feed their hungry families.
“I burst into tears,” said Toro, who delivered the grim news to other students. “We came here, and together we all cried.”
The slaughter isn’t an isolated incident. Across Venezuela, as the once-wealthy oil nation’s economy collapses and sky-high inflation leaves residents struggling to afford scarce food, crimes of hunger and desperation are soaring.
Ranchers across the country complain their livestock herds are meeting the same fate. There are media reports of small groups of men caught smuggling stolen horse meat — accompanied by gory pictures of dismembered horses.
Helping disabled kids ride < Helping kids eat
Yeah, I have to admit I wasn’t rooting for the horse.
I have little sympathy. The majority cheered Chavez on and kept cheering for years while he looted the country and passed out token amounts to his supporters.
They did this shit to themselves.
It is the same pattern as always. The envious cheer for the strong man who will loot the rich on their behalf and then when the host dies from blood loss they start crying and pointing fingers. Same ol’ story over and over again.
The fuck? You know he rigged the elections and persecuted his opponents starting at least a decade ago because he would have been tossed on his ass then?
I mean, fuck Russians, they cheered Lenin when promised to end the war in 1917, clearly they deserved Stalin’s purges good and hard!
I have sympathy for the minority, but sympathy is pretty worthless to them.
I really fear that it could happen here, in time, and I certainly won’t be cheering for it. :/ (I hope I’m just paranoid.)
This is hysterical:
That made my day
Comedy, right?
I have said it before…once you go off of the rails, you are off the rails. One crazy bit of nonsense is like any other.
‘Smash Racism DC’ Organizer ‘Involved’ In Ambush At Tucker Carlson’s Home Issues Statement.
“Protests are a disruption of the peace, that’s the point,” starts the statement. “‘If we don’t get no justice. Then you don’t get no peace’ was a common slogan during the height of the Black Lives Matter movement.”
“Being a target of a direct action is uncomfortable and Tucker should sit with that,” the statement continued. “Maybe he can show more empathy toward Queer people, Black people, the poor, refugees, migrants, and the many other people who hold scars from our society. Tucker’s promotion of white supremacy has real world consequences and he knows this.”
“While Tucker’s wife may have been scared and hid in the pantry, imagine the trauma from across the board from right wing attacks,” the statement adds, noting nonspecific apparently victims of the right, which includes people with “gender dysphoria,” “being homeless,” people “dying” without healthcare, and sexual assault victims.
The statement concludes, “Tucker is a propagandist for the status quo and promotes fascist politics. He should be held accountable and forced to think about the affects his views has on other people.”
Words that have no meaning: white-supremacist, fascist/ism, right-wing, attack, propagandist, etc.
Classifying yourself as a victim justifies all kinds of evil shit
“Status quo.” You know, like being able to feel safe in your home. Smash that status quo, baby.
Whoever wrote that should be held accountable for their fucking grammar…
“Affects” is inadvertently more accurate.
I noticed that as well. Stupid is as stupid does.
The idea of showing up at someone’s house is to let them know you know where they and their family live and all the implied threats of violence that entails. It’s a shit thing to do.
I’m sure this organizer would be totally okay if a nice number of people decided to chant and protest right in front of their home late at night.
So this thug has been arrested, right?
So he’s going to be banned from Twitter any minute now, right?
What algorithm are you looking at?
You’re right. Who am I crapping? They’ll ban Carlson instead.
