Winter is now far away. If you look closely, you can see a cabin between the power poles. That’s my families cabin.
As with every season here, when it’s about half over, you’re tired of it. Then you wake up one day and it’s the next season. Summer arrived here Wednesday, right on time.
I haven’t worn a mask in a month. We were actually in stage four until they moved it back. Half of the businesses are ignoring the orders.
This should make the next family reunion fun.
You know you’re in an effed up timeline when you find yourself agreeing with Bill Maher.
Couldn’t do worse than the Russian mercenaries.
Just say no to volcanic craters.
Seems appropriate.
Aging boomers are askeert of the virus. Considering that it’s their cohort that are dying of the thing, this isn’t entirely irrational.
Yes. Even in places where I expect such things to be shunned (like a gun store), the older folks are wearing them.
A link to the poll:
https://static.foxnews.com/foxnews.com/content/uploads/2020/06/Fox_June-13-16-2020_Complete_National_Topline_June-19-Release.pdf
The results don’t make sense. Skewed Democrat and they love Bush (that’s an item, not sure why), the local police, BLM, Fauci, and Birx. With numbers like that they’re showing their hand by not having an item that measures the thoughts about people that don’t wear face masks. Just because they like people that do wear them doesn’t they dislike those that don’t like them.
I wear a mask in camaraderie with the workers who have to wear them in places that visit. Maybe it makes them feel a bit better. I do not wear it outdoors.
I refuse to wear on unless I absolutely have to, which was at my sister’s hs graduation recently. I have been into 2 businesses recently that had posted masks required per gov. Coonman’s e.o. (there is an exception for health reasons that everyone seems to conveniently miss…) and not worn one. No one has said anything to me about it. It makes no goddamned sense to wear one to get to a table in a restaurant only to take it off at the table. I do sympathize with the staff of businesses who have to wear them because their employers require it because, I assume, said employers wish to not have legal troubles.
I used to wear a full Plague Doctor getup.
But now I’ve gotten lazy and reuse one of the (apparently unlimited) supply of “real” masks provided by my employer.
Is is cowardly? I don’t think so. Most of the places I go these day I actually know the people working there. And I really don’t want to put them in a situation where they have to obey their employer and tell me to put one on.
Mary L. Trump was embroiled in a feud over her inheritance two decades ago when her uncle Donald Trump and his siblings punched back in classic style. In an obscure court filing, they belittled her, alleging she “lives primarily off the Trump income” and is “not gainfully employed.”
Such a nasty woman.
Must have not been useful in 2016.
The cabin looks like it’s in a nice spot.
One of the best spots on the river.
Can’t really say that’s the first (or middle or last) thing that comes to mind for me.
Senile old pervert is what pops into my head.
The old Joe Biden may have cared about his country, but this one will just go whichever way he will be shoved.
He’s a career politican who now happens to be senile. He pretended to be working class back when working class people actually voted D. Never once did he do anything even slightly outside the mainstream of his party.
They are now suing the cruise line and the New Zealand tour company for what their attorneys from Lipcon, Margulies, Alsina & Winkleman call a “preventable tragedy.”

I haven’t worn a mask in a month.
I wear one everyday I am at work. “Required” attire.
They started that in my office only two weeks ago. I thought we were going to dodge that bullet but no dice.
We have required masks at work since March. We also didn’t shut down over COViD.
We don’t have to wear them in the cubicle, or lunch room.
We limit the number of people in meeting rooms.
It was require by the state to stay open.
I’m public I follow the rules of the store other wise no masks.
Yep, DoD facility. Might have to buy some more with designs that emphasize my moods….honey badger, tits, etc. Looks like this is gonna get tedious real fast.

Thank goodness it’s not really Phil Collins.
First the statues, now the flags.
Mississippi lawmakers on Saturday took the first steps toward erasing the Confederate battle emblem from the state flag, a symbol that has come under intensifying criticism in recent weeks amid nationwide protests against racial injustice.
Republican Gov. Tate Reeves said Saturday, for the first time, that he would sign a bill to change the flag if the Legislature passes one. He had previously said that he would not veto one — a more passive stance.
“The legislature has been deadlocked for days as it considers a new state flag,” Reeves said on social media. “The argument over the 1894 flag has become as divisive as the flag itself and it’s time to end it. If they send me a bill this weekend, I will sign it.””
I agree more with ditching the flag inclusion in modern flags than the statues. You lost.
I guess MD, OK, and HI will need to change their flags as well.
That is the Union jack in Hawaii’s flag, not the Stars and Bars
Exactly. The flag of a country that lost to the US. Likewise MD’s flag is the colors of a English nobleman. Oklahoma has Indian symbols. All losers to the US.

Dunno. Large venues were open. Bars were open, etc. There’s a good chance the roll back to level three will just be ignored.
Interestingly enough, most ethnic restaurants are still only doing take out and delivery. Every place else has dine in.

I like to use the local gun shop to gauge the level of paranoia. Last weekend I went to a small shop in Phoenix. Three guys working there with very slim pickings as far as inventory. I left with 100 rounds of hard cast lead .38spl. Which is fine, I actually did need that.
This afternoon I went to a bigger shop In Scottsdale. It had guns, although an awful lot fewer than last time I was there, and it had ammo. It even had evil black rifles. It also had a whiteboard outside that said, “we don’t have _______”. It appeared they cordoned off the entrance to allow for a line to form, but there were only 10 customers in the store. The only thing they did NOT have, incidentally were shotguns. I left with 50 rounds of .45 Auto hollow points…which I didn’t need but why not?
Both shops are exactly 5 miles apart.
which I didn’t need
My understanding is that the correct answer to “Do I need more guns/ammo?” is always “yes”.
While true, I have 250 rounds of 200gr Hornady XTP on hand. I could blow $40 on something else.
I’ve got a very full gunbroker watchlist. Something’s gonna happen soon.
Just got an email with a shipping notice of moar ammo.
Thinking about pulling the trigger on another case.
I like saving money, so I always buy by the case.
Somehow my wallet is even lighter after saving money.
Firing pin plunger arrived a few hours ago. When I sober up, It’ll be time to finish the G-type conversion!
Then many “BLAM!s”
Organized the ammo today. Had a little more of everything than I thought. Which is nice. Could always use more, but not excited about spending on it. I think I can wait for things to calm down.
Pondering a reflex sight for the new shotgun. If I’m motivated tomorrow, I’ll take down the .45 for a good cleaning.
I picked up a Streamlight/laser combo for the Shockwave along with a side saddle shell holder.
I’ll be testing it out in a couple of weeks for alignment. Should be entertainingly loud.
What I do for a side-saddle shell holder will depend on what I do for sights. These guys have an interesting cowitness mount and shell holder.

Oooooo… Beretta shotgun.
Above my pay scale right now.
I used to want that, until MANY people said I didn’t want a gas-operated shottie.
My 1100 has been flawless for many many rounds, so I’m comfortable with them.
It wasn’t a consideration of will they work or not, it was a consideration of how many times a year is cleaning required. Supposedly gas gunners clean their shotguns in the middle of a match, while intertials clean it after.
That’s true of most older gas-operated shotguns (I’ve never seen an 1100 make it through a 3gun match) but definitely not true of the Beretta 1301.
I got it off the shelf at list price at my local. Their last one. I was very happy to find one in these uncertain times.
“Should be entertainingly loud.”
AR pistol with a muzzle brake says “WHAT?”
That 14 inch barrel makes the pressure wave off the muzzle hit my left ear when shooting from the hip. First time I tried it without earmuffs, my left ear rang for about 5 hours.
My only reservation about it as a defense weapon is that firing it inside is going to render me deaf for weeks.
True story: I have a set of earmuffs hanging on the barrel of every shotgun I own, whether it’s the safe in my basement or the one in my bedroom.
The simplest solutions are the best.
Electronic muffs.

I don’t know if you saw it, but I posted a link to a Paul Harrel video where he tested barrel length, and he found that there was no difference in accuracy between a rifle and pistol length barrel (for 5.56mm NATO) and while there was a velocity dropoff, it was still above the magic 2200 fps.
I did. Though for social work, I’d take the 7.62×39 pistol over the 5.56.
I own a .460 S&W revolver with a big ass brake at the end. That thing is so fucking loud that even double protection isn’t really enough.
I went to Sportsman’s Whorehouse and, miracle of miracles, THEY HAD 5.7×28. And at only 0.55/round. I bought their entire stock. I haven’t been able to find it online for less than $1/round for over a month.
You made an excellent score. You just have the PS-90, or have you picked up the Ruger yet?
Still just the PS90. Saving my nickels and dimes.

On the movie thing from the dead thread. I would pay to see Lawrence Of Arabia on a big screen that used the high end 65mm projectors again.
I would like that and Bullit. Car chases back then were so much cooler and white knuckled. Man car chases go on for way too long in most movies.
They had a 50th anniversary of Bullitt via Fathom events a couple years back – saw it in a nearly empty theater. Alamo Drafthouse played it as part of their Steve McQueen series in Jan or Feb this year.
I’d love to see the Eiger Sanction on a big screen.
LoA is amazing on a big screens, especially with a quality sound system. I saw ES on a big screen when it was released and it was much more impressive as well.
If a long lost copy of the original, un fucked with, “Star Wars” can be found- it would be impressive on a huge screen as well. I still remember the star destroyer filling the screen at the start. (We travelled to Phoenix to see it on the biggest screen in the state.)
“The Longest Day” would be good on a huge screen as well.
“The Sting” is always fun and grows on the big screen.
From the dead thread.
Movies I like to see on the big screen.
A local drive in decided a few years ago that they couldn’t upgrade to the new digital projectors. Instead they focused on old films and themes. They now have a mostly volunteer group of employees that work there every weekend.
They draw attention from all over the region and have people camp there for the weekend.

A most healthy attitude for a science/tech type of place.
I am seriously considering giving candidates applying for entry level engineering jobs a written engineering exam.
If colleges succeed in forcing a demographically diverse graduating class even in their technical degrees, the degrees will become worse than useless.
LOL
I was forced into diversity hires of underqualified engineering candidates over two decades ago.
I wonder how many people are going to drop out of college seeing their older siblings hold useless degrees.
Probably not many.
My brother passed his professional engineer’s test on the second try. I understand that is almost unheard of.
Today he runs the design dept at one of the biggest steel companies in the country. Mostly what he does is correct the designs of the jr. engineers. It is sad really.
I bought a lottery ticket today just for the hell of it. If I win my brother is going to retire and we are going fishing.
“Mostly what he does is correct the designs of the jr. engineers.“
As seems right and proper to me. That’s how junior anything gets from journeyman to master level at their work.
It is. No engineer I have known (with one possible exception) was a net positive for the company over the first year of their career.
The only question is how well they learn to use their resources and learn to interface with others in the manufacturing process to optimize their designs.
That second part is the hardest for most.
“…journeyman to master…
Ughh, dude, “Master” is not the preferred term now.
So racist.
Maybe it varies by discipline, but I work with a bunch of ‘tarded PEs who passed on their first try.
No kidding? I’ll be damned.
I have known engineers that tried half of a dozen times and threw in the towel.
*In fairness to my brother he and I got drunk as hell the night before he took the test. He was very hung over, probably still drunk when he took it.
first try
I suspect that’s true of the civil guys. I’m sure EE pass it right off: their theory and actual work are so similar. I’d guess mechanical do the worst: too varied in the coverage.
I never got a stamp and still am not qualified to even sit for the exam. Talking to my state senator, I pointed out that thousands of 26 year olds in seven contiguous states can drive across the line and practice here while I with seven times as much experience can’t. I turn down small jobs all the time because I can’t get E&O insurance without a stamp, so I’ve got to work as a regular employee of an industrial firm to keep from running afoul of the governor’s rules.
Unless you’re in power engineering, it’s fairly rare to come across an EE with a PE.

I’ll go with you, bro, I’m available and have my own stuff.
You are welcome any time. Bass fishing in the south, you can’t beat it with a stick.
We give every intern who interviews series of basic circuits and related questions.
Show a simple RC circuit and ask the intern what the IV curve should look like.
Then progress to inductors, transistors and more complex questions.
I will then ask questions that allow the interviewees to demonstrate problem solving, attitude, and enthusiasm for engineering.
I would run interviews in two stages. I’d give one test that pointed them in the right technical direction and have them interview with their potential manager and coworkers.
I would then call them in two days later for a follow up test to see if they went back and reviewed the content.
I wanted to know if they were self motivated and capable of using resources.
It was different for senior positions of course.
My test for young engineers (back in the day): I’d have an ostentatiously unplugged soldering iron on my desk. While they were answering some innocuous question, I’d pick it up and move the tip over to the interviewees arm. If they stared at me like I was insane, they failed the interview. If they reflexively flinched and pulled away, they passed.
This did a great job of separating the SPICE-jockeys from real bench guys.
I remember you. I did not flinch but not for the reason you think.
I’ll have to steal that one.

Whoever writes the copy for the NPR newsreaders keeps writing that the police reform bill died in the senate because the D’s thought it didn’t go far enough, as opposed to the “died in the Republican controlled Senate” statement that I’d expect the spin to be. Now it’s possible that with the HoR bill going nowhere, they’ll shift to “The R’s have killed antiracist police reform,” but there was something else today.
They ran a story about the abortive attempt at pulling town a statue of Lincoln in D.C. that framed it a a fight between older and younger African Americans. The younger ones saying “Lincoln was a yt, and therefore evil,” and the olders saying (literally) “the only reason you are where you are is because of the efforts of your elders. STFU and listen to us goddammit!” I am curious to see how the narrative progresses.
We all know how this plays out over the long run.
Unlike CNN, WashPo, and MSNBC, NPR may have a long-term concern over their credibility. The Lincoln Memorial fight was all over the Twitterverse so hard to spin it any other way without being called out as liers.
Yes, it seemed the fight between the old folk and the young folk about statues seemed to stump them on the usual narrative laden story. I was surprised they aired it to be honest.

Perfectly sums up my thoughts on this shit.
5 out of 6 of my hot pepper plants are doing very well. The habanero is not looking happy.
The super hots are bushy as fuck and the jalapeno is turning into a tree.
Excellent. My tomato plants decided to finally go into full swing. No cucumbers yet but lots of summer squash.
If only there were a beer tree
My chili plants seem to be doing ok but there is a black spot where the leaves shoot out of the stem, which is also where the blossoms form. Not sure if it is a big deal or not. A short online search revealed nothing definitive. My cherry tomatoes have green fruit but the big tomatoes are just blooming so far. I wish I had got a jalapeno plant but I was out of big planters. All my stuff is in pots this year since my small scale dirt farming only resulted in dead plants. The dirt around my house is toxic I think. All adobe clay and regardless of how much garden soil I replaced it with the plants did not do well.
My habanero is finally doing better. Tomatoes look good and picked squash and green beans today
Latitudinist!
It will be at least another 4 weeks before I get anything pickable.
I’m with you, I had to replant some things after the Memorial Day frost but I see a watermelon blossom and tomato blossoms. Kale, mustard greens and Chinese cabbage are getting ate now, first radishes are over, second ones doing OK. Heat today wilted the beet leaves but they perked up as the evening cooled off. I’m irrigating almost every day now, dry, dry, dry.

Don’t make a business out of your most beloved hobbies. That is the take-away.

I spent a few hours prepping everything and it was worth it. I had to dig stuff out of boxes that I’d packed and my office/basement is a mess right now but I’m feeling like it was a little victory.
Similar. I feel like I am being driven to finish my patent (following in my Father’s and Grandfather’s footsteps) and find a firearms manufacturer who would be interested in working with me to bring a radical new shotgun to the market. It is definitely something I have a passion for – and I hope/expect it will be commercially viable.
Oh my goodness. That sounds like a magnificent project.
The patent is just for the ammunition feeding device which is a novel design. But the gun’s design is also rather unique.

Fingering various food items — whether bagged or unbagged — isn’t the only way people break the rules of preventing viral spread during a pandemic. Maybe they’re failing to maintain distance from other customers or letting their mask slip. Yikes! There are so many new no-no’s in the age of COVID-19.
So do you say anything — and if so, what?
Health experts agree that the etiquette of epidemics can be super thorny.
On the one hand, you care about safety and believe others ought to stick to certain rules for the well-being of the general public. On the other hand, it can be awkward to encourage others to follow health guidelines. You don’t want to come across as rude. But sometimes it really, really does feel as if the world is at stake. It is a worldwide pandemic, after all!
…
“Shaming never works — it didn’t work in past epidemics and it won’t work in this one,” says Harvard Medical School physician Dr. Abraar Karan. “The key here is to be kind and communicate your concerns clearly without stigmatizing others or making them feel like they are at fault. Personally, I would say: ‘Hey there — here’s some hand sanitizer. Please use it.’ ”
A gentle nudge, like “Wearing a mask protects you and others,” can go a long way, says Sax.

Holy shit, the doctor’s name is Karen. Somebody hit the reset button on this matrix already!
I hate the phrases “worldwide pandemic” and “global pandemic”. All pandemics are global. That’s why there’s a “pan” in there. And even that name is a misnomer because not all people will get infected. pan = all; demos = people.
I hate the phrases “worldwide pandemic” and “global pandemic”. All pandemics are global.
Glad I’m not the only one annoyed by this.
We could start calling it a “galactic pandemic” just to make the point.

Sorry, meant as a reply to 47.
Them: “Hey there — here’s some hand sanitizer. Please use it.”
Me: *Pours out hand sanitizer on the floor without using it, walks away.*
Them: “Wearing a mask protects you and others.”
Me: “I hate you and legitimately want you to die. Go away, now.”
I respond much worse to nudging than to outright rudeness.
My buddy and I did a blind taste test with these 4 beers and 2 Happoshu (low malt beers).
Our final results averaged:
1. Kirin Ichiban shibori
2. Bud
3. Kinmugi (Blue can happoshu)
4. Sapporo
5. Honkirin (Red can happoshu)
6. Asahi Super Dry.
We do this every year with different beers, but Asahi Super Dry always loses when it’s included. Not sure of the best way to do the test, however. After three sips or so, the differences start to become less distinguishable. Maybe popcorn between sips wasn’t the best palate cleanser.

I have drank a boat load of Asahi a time or two and it did the trick. But I am a white trash american so I am used to bad beer.
Way to show your Japanese beer privilege.
No Premium Malts or Yebisu this year, so my privileges were revoked. Truth is that it’s too easy to identify them.
I like Echigo and Hitachino. Hitachino has a cool owl pic on its label.
Had to google Echigo. Did that and remembered I’ve been there…ugh. Aging sucks. You’re right about Hitachino (never tried it, though). Echigo has cool cans, too.

“I said that if I got 2,000 likes I would jump in the tank. I got way more than that and didn’t want to be a liar,” said TikTok user WevinKise, according to KSLA.
Bystander Treasure McGraw recorded the stunt on her cell phone and watched as the prankster, who later confirmed his name was Kevin Wise, swam from one end of the tank to the other.
“Oh my gosh, oh lord. Okay he’s getting out,” she said as he climbed out of the tank, adding, “I thought he was drowning.”
Moments later, McGraw watched in disbelief as Wise ran down an aisle of the store on his way to the front entrance.
“This is interesting,” she stated.
That guy really wants to cure his covid.
However, the viral prankster also urged people not to do something until they thought it out “because things can go wrong. Don’t do spur of the moment crap like I do,” he explained.
Oh, sure, pal. You’re just trying to keep people outta the “crazy viral prankster” hustle and keep those clicks coming to you alone!

Once again, stay the fuck out of a mob and if you do get in one, don’t exit the vehicle.
Sounds like the driver was a guy. Confused.
We have a ‘shoot the carjacker’ law. Attacking a motorist here is a death sentence. Assaulting someone in a car here is a very bad idea.
If I can shoot them when they break into my home and I’m there, I can shoot them when they break into my car and I’m there.
And the police can arrest you.

They were
protestingLARPING at the city buildings in Aurora today. Between me and the highway I needed to take. Took forever, because there’s not enough parking, so people were parking all the way up by my place and walking down, so nobody could turn right, etc. I was confused at first, thought the city was doing some 4th of July thing. The I noticed how it was mostly yp (in Aurora?), and of course the signs were a dead giveaway. So I starting yelling “build the wall!” Lol for serious I did as I drove by.I hear it in Bender’s voice. Give em hell!

I just had some shrimp cocktail. The shrimps were pretty freezer burned but I gobbled them down anyway. Yum. Now for another beer and more of this bad movie.
One silver lining in all this play acting is that people are finally staying out of my bubble while standing in line. Personal pet peeve is some jackass breathing down my neck.
? Yep I have always hated people in my space.
I’ll deal with that than this newfound affection for the mask.

about OddlyImpressive
Photos available by request from those who show compatibility and serious interest for the right reasons
ME: I’m the type of person who will make you think in ways you never thought like before… I’m serious-minded but lighthearted in spirit (big on sense of humor and adventure)… I’m high in morals and common sense… I’m natural and not like many black folks who are ashamed of their natural features and hide it under makeup, weaves, straightened hair, etc…. I will treat you how you treat me (fair)… I strive for independence, not the fake independence most take pride in having b/c they can buy what they need – money does not make you successful or independent. How can anyone call themselves independent when they depend on others to produce everything they need to survive and want for convenience?
HIM: must be nothing less than honorable to interest me; Honor involves being sensible in overall decision-making and being decent to others; This includes but isn’t exclusive to the following qualities/choices:
** a Naturalist – basically someone who’s against unreasonably changing or preventing how things are naturally meant to be; being unnatural is like saying your way is better than the way Nature or the Creator or the Universe intended, whether it be your food (especially eating animal secretions and body parts, which is the most unnatural thing for a human to eat), or your body (with hair chemicals, tats, piercings or unnecessary drugs – including alcohol), or your sexual activities (sex is for reproducing so anything you do sexually with someone else that prevents that is unnatural), or whatever
** Celibate by choice UNTIL love & marriage – not someone who’s willing to become celibate for a woman after sleeping with a bunch of women, but someone who’s serious about it and whose present and past choices show it (it’s strange how some religions support this yet most religious people who claim those religions don’t stand by it and don’t even try to)
** Ambitious – as in not letting laziness or difficulty prevent you from doing whatever you need to do, including major priorities as well as basic stuff like staying in shape and keeping clean
** Unselfish – single people can afford to be a lil selfish to an extent but selfishness in any way (be it cheating, abuse, stinginess, lies, undeserved rudeness, inconsiderateness, secrecy, etc.) is bad in a relationship or an attempt to develop one
** Open-minded – even when it comes to things that threaten your pride or challenges a long-held belief of yours; Particularly religion and male-chauvinism, two things I’ve noticed many people tend to be closed-minded about. Religion is something that can’t be proven to be true, is contradictory and senseless in some cases, and that most do little to no research on before accepting – all good reasons one should be open-minded and even skeptical about it (You can believe in god without believing in likely man-made stories and rituals about a particular god, and believing or not believing does not make you a good person – our everyday choices determine how good or bad we are). As for male-chauvinism, this current society was built on it through violence & oppression of females and still maintains it through its beliefs and customs, yet many blissfully go along with it as if it’s the right way to be and some don’t believe even though the proof is out there that we started as a matriarchal society rather than this current patriarchal one which was created by a certain group of men and forced on others by creating male gods to be supreme over the normal worship of female gods (which they eventually eliminated completely) and by creating new rules/laws that put males above females through getting rulership control
FYI: I don’t come on here everyday so it may take a few days for me to respond, and notes with nothing more to communicate than one word or a greeting are a waste of time and will not get a good response which may include no response.

At least she’s a Ramones fan… with bad spelling, apparently.
When I did online dating many moons ago, I’ve learned two things. The amount of guys who send dick pictures are absurdly high and a lot of the women on online dating sites are pretty full of themselves.
I went on a date with this one girl who was way out of my league in terms of looks but was a boring raging feminist along with being full of herself. At the end of the night I pretty much lost all interest in her and shocked her by having her pay for half of the bill for the date and told her basically that I wasn’t interested. She took offense to this and was perplexed at why I turned her down. Like i said she was good looking but her attitude the whole night was a massive turn off.
How many dick pics did you get? ?
I didn’t get any (thank the lawd) but a lot of women on the sites would always say….no dick pics.
I’ll never forget the night some friend of a friend took us to this snobby bar I never would have known about and less than five minutes in, some chick walked straight up to me and said, “What are YOU doing in here?” Unfortunately I was too speechless to come up with a good comeback. If I was the bitchy kind of gay I could have let her have it, but oh well.
They have snobby bars like that in Chicago and they are miserable places. I mean the scenery is great but it’s obvious that a lot of the women in those places are trying to find a guy who will spend their money on trying to woo them and buy them unlimited amount of drinks.
That’s sad. Back in my day, they were angling for coke.
Meh. Angled there.
I guess Chris Conrell is dead? I don’t get it. How do you fuck up so bad that you kill yourself with Soundgarden money? He had three kids. He was fifty two. How do you fuck up so bad that you’re dead at fifty two with three kids and Soungarden and Audioslave money? You stupid fucking idiot, how can you fuck up that bad?
Some people just get sick of this shit.
^^A prophet for our times.
I get sick of shit. I still wake up Monday morning and go back to shoveling it. I get that the type of person who’s likely to make it big is also likely to be half insane for reasons. Whatever. He had children. He had loads of cash. What the fuck?
So my therapist said “happiness” is not the goal. Contentedness and being in the moment is the goal. When I remember that I feel much better because you start chasing happiness and it eludes you, particularly if you don’t know what it feels like, eventually you’re going to start wondering WTF is wrong that you can’t be happy.
But. A) You have to feel sorrow to feel happiness. B) Too many people want happiness without sorrow and start getting depressed because they’re constantly chasing happiness but not getting it. C) Many people nowadays think they are owed happiness (by the universe? I guess?).
It’s really put things in perspective for me. If someone says, “How was your day?” and I can honestly say, “Meh”, it was a good day.
I sent you an email with some happiness.
But I can’t imagine depriving children of their father, however unhappy he is.

Brass makes me horny. Or horns make me brassy.
I really really like that band. Thank you again! I am in your debt.
I don’t see bands, but if they’re ever in the country again I will absolutely drop a couple hundo to fly to see them.
I thought I’d go see The Darkness when they were supposed to tour… but that was in the olden times, years ago, in February… before the Covid.
Agreed. Happiness is a fleeting thing. I think the best we can hope for long term is a tranquility of mind, with occasional happiness. And because the world is in state of entropy, occasional upset as well.
I like the thought that we owe it to others to be happy. I like to make it an obligation. It feels more real to be happy on account of other people. I don’t know that I sleep unless I’m sedated, right? And I don’t know that I’m happy unless I see other people who are happy.
#metoo, sort of
Or at least give the impression…
My biggest pet peeve is people who go out of their way to make other people unhappy.
#metoo, Life is hard enough. Why make it harder on other people?
Life is obligation, I think. Living for oneself is empty.
I don’t have kids, so I can only guess. But it seems better to live obligingly than to live… whatever’s the opposite.
Maybe the obliging connotations aren’t apt.
I screenshot some random comment on the internet:
“I try to err on the side of graciousness.”
Love it!
I used to make fun of people who use bully to describe other adults, and bullying to describe what’s done to them, but we are in a very childish age.
Honest question, why do think an adult can’t be a bully?
Adults can bully, being bullied requires being a child.
Or at least, I thought that. Now we have a society conducive to bullying. Acting like an adult means going prone around fully grown children, and their tantrums are more important than your maturity.
I posted this in the morning lynx, but I’ll repost because this makes me happy every time I think about it.
Long ago I was in martial arts. I went to tournaments. I competed. I rose in rank. Honestly, I wasn’t very good, but I couldn’t tell so I was half swagger but only half because other people were better than I.
I was at a tournament once. I think I was a green belt by then (one step under brown) and what caught my eye but two little old ladies with white belts shuffling around together and messing with their gear. That wasn’t the cute part, though. The cute part was that one was in a pink gi. The other was in a lavender gi.
I remember that every time I think I’m “too old” for something new.
Agreed 1000% and kids too,
/Cornell BTW…………
Depression doesn’t care about your bank account.
Some cultures teacht that it was actually *bad* to pursue happiness:
***
Joshanloo and Weijers identify four reasons for an aversion to happiness: (1)a belief that happiness will cause bad things to happen; (2) that happiness will cause you to become a bad person; (3) that expressing happiness is somehow bad for you and others; and (4) that pursuing happiness is bad for you and others.[7] For example, “some people—in Western and Eastern cultures—are wary of happiness because they believe that bad things, such as unhappiness, suffering, and death, tend to happen to happy people.”[8]
These findings “call into question the notion that happiness is the ultimate goal, a belief echoed in any number of articles and self-help publications about whether certain choices are likely to make you happy”.[8] Also, “in cultures that believe worldly happiness to be associated with sin, shallowness, and moral decline will actually feel less satisfied when their lives are (by other standards) going well”,[9] so measures of personal happiness cannot simply be considered a yardstick for satisfaction with one’s life, and attitudes such as aversion to happiness have important implications for measuring happiness across cultures and ranking nations on happiness scores.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aversion_to_happiness
Fun fact: the words happen and happy have the same root. The basic meaning is something beyond human control. The word lucky used to be a synonym for happy.
There are many cases of rich, famous people who off themselves. Anthony Bourdain did. Kate Spade, the billionaire purse designer did too.
Of all the things that people need for flourishing, health, wealth, relationships, and mental health, I think mental health is hardest because humans were not designed to be happy at least long term. If any of those four things are deficient, you’re going to have a rough time of it.
“teacht that it was”

Yeah, in German “happy” and “luck” are very similar.

As with all celebrity hanging “suicides”, I assume he was jackin’ it.
Or maybe he had dirt on Hillary, who knows?
I was trying to think of something deep to say to Derp, but Chris Cornell had dirt on Hillary has just stolen my imagination.
I mean, he did “kill himself” in 2017, so.
Maybe he had the directions to Wisconsin.
It’s late but since this post made me go look up what the reports actually said, I’ll type it in anyway. I think the family’s right and it was a bad reaction to the meds he was taking. He was in treatment for depression and usually would’ve known how to reach out, but sometimes those anti-depressants work the opposite way (there’s a reason the side-effects warnings say “suicidal thoughts”). And he just didn’t know/couldn’t see anything else to do because his brain was just that out of whack. It was only a couple hours between talking to his wife and saying he was tired, to his wife sending his bodyguard to kick the door in when he didn’t pick up the phone again.
Sad, no matter what though. And in some alternate universe where this didn’t happen, Chester Bennington also didn’t kill himself, because I’m 100% that was a … cluster suicide? I forget the word but sort of a ‘oh they did it, so I’ll do it too’ phenomenon.

New Dukes of Hazard Will Feature Two Chinese Lesbians Driving a Used Prius
NEW YORK – The iconic Southern series will be moved north in this reboot. The working title is The Dykes of Harlem, which chronicles the adventures of two Chinese lesbians and their daily quest to avoid having the gasoline engine turn on while driving. According to head writer Joanna Gambolputty “the original series had a lot of problematic imagery and hurtful stereotypes. We’re putting all that behind us by making a show about about Asian women who drive slow on purpose.” Exciting plot lines include scrupulously driving the speed limit even though their dog really has to pee and agonizing over whether to by gasoline on a long road trip. The Prius will feature a rainbow flag on the roof and sparkly streamers on the side view mirrors. The soundtrack will feature the Indigo Girls and Paula Poundstone will play the role of Daisy Duke.

I went to Smith’s to top off my liquor supply because I’m in danger of sobriety, and I expected to be bullied because I forgot my mask, but nobody bothered. I even saw other maskless scofflaws, and nobody bothered to bully them, either.
My local liquor store doesn’t care about masks. The last time I visited it the two salespeople had their masks under their chins. They didn’t bother to put them on when I entered sans mask. Mind you, I live in the area where 95% of pedestrians have been wearing masks on the street for the last two months.

When the helicopters come for the commies, I’d like to throw in web designers. Take all of the principles html was supposed to have and take a giant steaming shit on it so hard that elements are hidden off screen and unscrollable. Fuck you assholes.

Anything above 100 feet is a waste of fuel. The lifts will be rapidly turned around.
There are not nearly enough helicopters. Perhaps those big drones will work? it’s the 21st century, we can modernize commie flinging.
