Possibly OMWC or Mad Scientist
Subject Report 071520 – Subject RAPERNON has slowed considerably. Aggression is notably less, and rape activity has dropped off to a few desultory thrusts at the food dish and exercise wheel. No attempt at the lab assistant replacing wood shavings and filling water bottle. Checking Subject SWISS SMITH for similar reaction.
“Huh. Looks like he is either wearing out, or this stuff is wearing off.” Mad Scientist frowned at the holding cell.
“Yes, that was not even a halfhearted attempt to molest that wheel of raclette cheese.” OMWC shook his head slowly.
“So how long do we keep him in there?”
“We have to let this run its course. Science!”
“Yes, Science!”
“He did the links in a rather mixed fashion…”
- IT RED ALERT for our Glibs in Tokyo.
- SWISS Smith NO understand this rather strange story.
- What hath the plague wrought? The Hair…poor fellow.

There was no way Trump was going to be able to hide the gray.
I can foresee at least one or two pieces written that the gray is RACIST or its POLITICAL
So do you think the carpet matches the curtains?
Since I recently learned that the hair eats the pubes to keep them from becoming sentient, I don’t think we’ll ever know.
I have nothing to say except if I was dealing with all the crap that any president deals with, I would have been grey 4 years ago on day 2.

Hard to tell, but all three of the lady sex cultists are a would.
And really, what is illegal about running a sex cult? Stupid Puritans, settling in New England.
Nothing until you force women to have sex with you and then brand them.
branding? is that like for Instagram influencers?
More or less.
I thought all the charges were financial in nature.
I skimmed the article…thought it said something about their ‘leader’ doing those things.
Oh, he branded them. But AFAICT, the branding was voluntary. I think the sex is a case of “The Guru said I would only spiritually improve if I fucked him. So I did but I didn’t really want to.”
Then your original statement stands! What is so wrong with voluntarily getting branded and most likely, having sex with the guy. My guess is their tune changed once the state went after him and they offered certain benefits for turning against him.
Here’s how it works, ma’am. We’re sending your guru up the river whether you help us or not. That means no more salvation for you and eternal damnation unless you find a new guru. ::unzips:: Get it?
I’ve always wanted to found a sex cult but I’m coming to realize that will be yet another infilled life’s dream for me. Oh well…
Never.

Deaths actually ARE at a virus low in Japan.
But the government just wants to have any excuse to shit on people so they PANIC which says they don’t even believe the mask bullshit themselves AT THE SAME TIME they have the golden opportunity to claim (by statistics) that the masks are effective.

2. just a minute, for a moment, briefly (usually written in kana)
3. somewhat, rather, fairly, pretty, quite (usually written in kana)

A RED ALERT for a virus that isn’t killing people.
If this were an actual dangerous virus, many of the authorities would already be dead.
If they keep it up, it might yet prove deadly.
Remember, the Spanish Flu only became news when the King of Spain got it. The months prior to that when GI’s in foxholes were dying of it? Sorry, not news worthy because cannon fodder.
Maybe, but the homeless would certainly be dead. They live in exposed and dirty conditions. They don’t sanitize or social distance. They have a variety of other health issues and poor access to care outside of an E R. COVID should be killing them in waves- like Monty Python Bring Out Your Dead waves. Each day the city paper should be telling how they had to recover 3 more corpses from tent city last night. You know what they aren’t? Morbidly obese. You know what else they aren’t? Over 70.
I still get giggles when i really sit down and think that Donald Trump is President.
The night of in 2016, once the NY Times had it’s percentage chance above 90%, I kept giggling. Not because I was happy (I wasn’t, but not upset either), but I just kept saying: “I can’t believe we elected Donald Trump president.”
I spent election night in the ER attempting to pass a kidney stone. The pain medication was pretty good, but the reactions of the CNN journalos on the itty bitty TV erased all vestiges of discomfort.
Man that sucks. I hope the waterfall of tears eased your pain.

“Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt, 48, who has backed one of the country’s most aggressive reopening plans and rarely wears a mask, is the first governor to test positive for coronavirus”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8526435/Oklahomas-governor-says-hes-tested-positive-COVID-19.html
Okay. It would be nice if we could get over the media portraying insta-death if you come up positive. Dad, laying in a hospital bed, with cancer popped positive and was asymptomatic the whole time. It isn’t a death sentence but the media sure likes to play it that way.
The media is always 5-6 months behind the times.
Govs too. We are still operating under March/April “science” for this. Where the damn hell is my beer
The Times are ahead by 6 months? I did sleep well last night or was that back in Feb?
Will the have a FOLLOW UP when he isn’t dead, hospitalized or such? Or just the original “HA HA”
Somehow, some way, Bolsonaro is still alive after catching it.
Gripezinha só.
Now do Boris Johnson (and Pence)
I don’t think Pence ever tested positive, I think he sequestered because someone on his staff did.
No that was just because a woman walked into the office.
The time between a positive test and death is three weeks, far longer than journalism’s attention span.
So when he dies between now and forever, he is now a COVID statistic.
The level of disgust I have for these stories is pretty high.
Individualism is white-supremacy.
The web page on whiteness appears to have been live on the museum’s website for just over a month, according to a search of the Internet Archive. It offers definitions and educational materials for explaining “systemic racism.”
One guide, drawn from “data” on a chart created in 1990, advises that features of “whiteness” include “rugged individualism,” the nuclear family, an “emphasis on the scientific method,” and a belief that “hard work is the key to success.”
Does that mean that blind conformity (aka not leaving the plantation) is black supremacy?
Next they will be saying Apple Pie, Freedom and the American way of Life are all parts of “whiteness”.
They already have.
So I can escape my toxic whiteness by being part of a collective, being lazy, being habitually late, having poor grammar, rejecting logic and scientific thought, rejecting religion and family, etc.? Guess that explains the whole “woke” generation.
…and stop playing hockey…
WHOA! Slow down there fourscore. Every man has to have a red-line.
It doesn’t say anything about sports, so apparently I can still play, I just have to stop trying to be good at it.
Let’s see your privileged ass try to play hockey without a sled,
It’s too white!
No. You will always carry the stain of being white.
One other aspect of “whiteness”. I don’t really think about race much, don’t care about “the community” as long as they aren’t rioting. Don’t even care what my neighbors are up as long as it doesn’t affect me.
If indifference = racism, I’m a Grand Wizard.
Its just staggering to me that they list a bunch of stuff which seems to me like uncontroversial Good Things, credit them to white people, and imply thereby that POCs don’t have these good things and/or that they aren’t good at all.
Being white does mean you have not faced hardships or oppression based on the color of your skin.
But you have faced barriers to education and career advancement.
It’s true! The Irish were welcomed with open arms!
Irish is a skin color?
Neither is black.
And I don’t just mean that black people aren’t literally Pantone black or RGB #000000 or some other colorists’ definition of black.
Lots of southern Asians and others are as dark as dark-skinned Africans. But they’re not considered black.
Lots of light-skinned Americans, Brits, and people of other nationalities are considered black. But their ancestry is primarily (>50%) non-African.
Black is a cultural identity that has overlap with skin color but is not identical to it.
So there’s enough imprecision here to go around.
The Irish weren’t considered white until relatively recently, so they were some color or other.
Being white does mean you have not faced hardships or oppression based on the color of your skin.
If we assume this is true, there are two ways to rectify it.
We seek to end harships and oppression based on skin color, race, ethnicity, and other factors that say nothing about a person’s character. This is the approach MLK advocated and many others agreed to in the 1960s-2000s.
Or we seek to impose new hardships and oppression based on skin color, race, ethnicity, and other factors that say nothing about a person’s character. This is the “new deal” of modern “anti-racism”: there can never be equality until the “white” people suffer.
I suppose I am a white supremacist. Sue me.

Well, if we weren’t before…
Well now we will….thanks K!
If so, I for one will not blame KSuellington: I cannot accept as fact the possibility that anyone can take the “Top Pervert” title away from SF. If SF has not written about something, it is not for lack of imagination.
It seems more likely that Melania manscapes that mushroom, and no one knows what color the pubes are.
Look at Mad trying to horn in on SF territory.
Nah, Melania seems like a smart cookie. She probably got him drunk and took him to a laser treatment right after they got married.
She can treat me anytime. My wife says she looks like a man, but I think I would be okay with it.
She does have rather sharp features and is from an eastern European country…
No chance. Anything SF comes up with will be 50 times more disturbing. In fact, I’ll wager that that ONLY thing more disturbing that SF’s imagination would be the truth.
One guide, drawn from “data” on a chart created in 1990, advises that features of “whiteness” include “rugged individualism,” the nuclear family, an “emphasis on the scientific method,” and a belief that “hard work is the key to success.”

I’m glad they’ve unmasked themselves enough to just admit that “whiteness” is code for “self-sufficient.”
“emphasis on the scientific method”

Ben Bernanke says the most important thing Congress can do to fix the US economy is to provide help to state and local governments .
In a column in the New York Times, Bernanke said the lack of sufficient support for state and local governments was the biggest mistake made during the Great Recession, and he’s afraid that Congress is in danger of repeating that mistake. Bernanke was the chairman of the Federal Reserve during the Great Recession and an academic expert of the Great Depression.
State and local government have already shed 1.5 million jobs since February, according to Labor Department figures. More jobs losses are coming, warns Bernanke, who is a member of a commission advising New Jersey’s state government on reopening.
“Our state governments serve a dual role as providers of critical services — health care, public safety, education and mass transit — as well as large employers,” Bernanke wrote.
STFU, Ben.
And take a roadtrip with RBG. Let her drive.
So the guy who now works for a state government thinks states getting federal money is of the utmost importance? Huh.
Or maybe the state governments could just lift the lockdown restrictions. LOOK! UP IN THE SKY! IT’S A BIRD… IT’S A PLANE.. IT’S… A PIG?

Reposted from the dead thread:
I need to order an optic for my new M1A. The scope mount from Springfield should be coming in the next few weeks or so.
Currently comparing the Leupold FX-3 6x42mm (fixed) with the Leupold VX-3i 3.5-10x40mm (variable). Both are listed at $520 MSRP.
Any suggestions?
Nope. Hopefully some of the rich shitlords around here can help.
I settled on a Sig Whiskey 3.
Reposted reply, with redundancies edited out and links this time:
I’d probably go fixed on the Leupold. 6x is a good all-purpose magnification, but 4x might be even more all-purpose. Honestly, I think most people buy more magnification than they need. I know I have.
I’m a Trijicon fanboi, and they make some ACOGs that I think are the bee’s knees. Even have some 3.5 x 35 with specific .308 bullet drop reticles. I have a self-illuminated ACOG on mine – I believe its the 2 x 20; its been awhile, and I thought it was 3X but I don’t see my reticle on the 3x. They are spendy. Optics Planet usually has some decent discounts, though.
What are you shooting?
I have a thousand rounds of American Eagle 308 Win. I can’t recall the bullet weight off the top of my head, but it pretty standard.
I mean, what is your target? What and how far away?
Zombies beyond the range of a Mini-14.
Zombies = white commies, right? Right???
Beyond the range of .223? You’ll need a lot of magnification that far out.
.308 ammo prices! ???
You still need a Ghille suit and a space blanket to hide your IR signature. And remember, when sniping in cold weather, put snow in your mouth to hide your breath.
Make note of the tallest structures and highest elevations near you. Consider how you would reach them and retreat from them. When shooting at a group, shoot the guy at the back first and work your way to the front. If you shoot the guy in front first, the others behind will see him fall and scatter.
Try to use loud noises to hide the sound of your shots. Practice crawling slowly over difficult ground. Mitigate the glare from your scope.
You can use fishing line and tin cans as a tripwire alarm. Put dummies with dummy rifles in somewhat obvious places. Build a system of tunnels around your house. Learn how to make deadfall and spring traps.
Learn how to make animal sounds. Practice hiding in stinky places people will naturally avoid. Create a fake identity for use in case of capture.

In all seriousness, during the last civil war and in wars generally, civilians usually just gave whatever to the occupying forces and hoped to be left alone.
There’s only so much one guy can do and even snipers work in teams.
If the manure hits the turbine, the choices are basically stay and fight, stay and hide, or run away. My own view is that the worst of it will be confined to cities and suburbs close to them, so the best defense is just to be as far away from any city as possible. Most of the stuff worth looting and killing over is in cities.
I forget the guy’s name, but I read his story from a plaque near Glacier National Park. Anyway, he had a cabin in Crow territory – just him, his wife, and his kids. He fought off a couple raids with just his black powder rifle and lived past 100. A real life Jeremiah Johnson, but with a happier ending.
If one average guy can fight off a bunch of pissed off warriors with a black powder rifle, how hard could it be to fight off a mob of noodle-armed leftists?
I am not worried about the US military being used to oppress Americans, because the most likely targets of the hypothetical repression would be relatives of the people assigned to do it.
Found the guy: Hugh Monroe, named Rising Wolf by his enemies
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Monroe-1719
***
Hugh Monroe, said to be the oldest man in Montana, died on Two Medicine creek, four miles east of the Blackfoot agency, a few days since. He as born near Montreal, Canada, 4 May 1784, and was therefore over 108 years of age at the time of his death, which occurred on the 8th inst. At the age of 18 he started west with a relative, in the employ of the Hudson Bay Company, and was stationed on the Saskatchewan river. In 1806 Monroe married a Blackfoot woman and left the employ of the company to dwell among the Indians. Much of his early married life was spent among the Kootenais. In 1832, having heard of the arrival of American Fur Company’s traders at the mouth of the Marias, he made a long journey with his wife, to again see white men and lay in a stock of tobacco. In 1836, with a party of Kootenais, he discovered and christened St. Mary’s lake, erecting a large cross there at the time. In 1853 Gov. Stevens survey party landed at Fort Benton and Monroe acted as guide and interpreter aw far as Walla Walla, from this point he returned to the Kootenais. About ten years ago Monroe returned to the Blackfeet reservatiton, and later took up his residence on Two Medicine creek, about 20 miles east of the main range of the Rockies. Very few interpreters could equal him as a sign talker, and spoke various Indian languages fluently. Up until a few days before his death he was quite active for a man of his age and was an inveterate hunter. He rarely visited the white people and for ninety years past his life was spent almost entirely amongst the Indians.–River Press, Fort Benton, MT — The Anaconda Standard, 15 Feb 1890 (excerpt)

This is actually the most worrisome situation, as it would be the most likely to touch off a for real civil war, Spanish Civil War style. Government enacts oppressive laws, a few states refuse to enforce, government sends in the military to correct the states, military splits over the decision, things spiral from there.
Well American commies fought in that Civil Wat as well.
This is how I see it going down… something along the lines of the Spanish Civil war or The Troubles in Ireland, communities balkanizing into something akin to Republican/Nationalist/Royalist/Protestant/Catholic areas with businesses catering to whichever faction.. god help you if you went to a bar in the incorrect faction’s turf.

I feel accomplished. Life is goofy. Lady (South African) is in Korea and is literally a refugee in exile…as South Korea/Africa don’t get along right now, and she can neither fly back home nor get legal employment in Korea. She cared for me while I was in comas and in hospital and rehab, and it’s my duty and honor to help her out however I can.
I strongly thank everyone here who helped my GoFundMe for making this assistance possible.
She has a new job. Signed contract. Everything. But she has to leave Korea and come back because of COVID stupidity fear. And retarded visa laws. She has to fly to Cambodia, be put in 2 weeks in quarantine, and then for some reason stay there for two more. Hey, I loved Cambodia. Once you get there it’s cheap as hell. Her work is providing the $3k USD that the Cambodian government wants as a deposit. Straight up extortion. ‘Apparently’ that money will be returned. She has to take a 50% pay cut upon return (and more quarantine!) but that’s not that rough. She’ll have rent and insurance covered and ~$1k per month for everything else. I expect no savings, but at least she’ll get by and get back into a routine.
Today I had to buy her the necessary insurance so that she can prove to the Cambodian embassy in Seoul that she has it. That’s…the best explanation. Just having it. It has no purpose IMO. Cost me $504. I SHOULD straight up get a total refund on that. But I got the cash and I need to help Lady anyway I can. She earned and needs it. Took me a bunch of phone calls and confusion to get it done.
The nephews are here but I checked out. I helped someone get closer to freedom today with my time, effort and money. I’ve done what I can do. The rest of the day is for me. I’m proud of myself. I’d say in my own stupid way, but I don’t think what I did today was easy or stupid. I got in the ring and did what was needed for the next round. Brings us closer to success.
Two expats in love, one of whom was broken by a car, the other in exile and unemployable, is not the easiest situation to imagine. Focus on the positive. The negative tries to sink you in. Today was a victory.
Always good to hear it was a good day Evan.
Glad to hear that the two of you are together again.
I’ve met many people with problems much less than yours who couldn’t handle it, so you should be proud of yourself.
If you pray, do not pray for an easy life. Pray for the strength to endure a hard one.
Life is hard for everyone at times, but if you keep your chin up and try to do right, you’ll have no regrets.
You’re a good man, Evan.
@Evan
If your girlfriend needs a local contact in Cambodia to navigate that 3,000 dollars bullshit and other stuff, let me know.
Sorry, I took a nap! I’m on Korean time so I could speak to her so I’m ‘off’ US time.
I would love any assistance! Thank you so much! I’m not sure if you’re still around, but I’d love to get in touch.
If you’re not around, I’ll hit you up next time I see you here. She should be at the Cambodian embassy in Seoul before 11pm (our time today–before noon on Thursday Korean time). She believes she’s flying out on her Friday, but will have to get confirmation on that.
I’d love her (and me) to know as much as possible to make this as smooth as possible.
Thanks! And I thank everyone for their kind words and support. It means so much.
I’m happy your lady has a job. Hopefully you two get through the shit.

“there’s no editorial point of view here on any of these newscasts on MSNBC in the daytime”
Why do any of them feel the need to lie about this still? Is there some ancient dusty FCC regulation nobody remembers that they’ll run afoul of? Have their lawyers advised them to say this constantly lest they violate the terms of some statute or settlement? I don’t get it.
I think it is something like an amputee attempting to scratch a phantom itch. They know it’s not there but they somehow feel a need to go through the motions.
The replies will tell you that she wasn’t editorializing, she was just fact checking.

He looked annoyed by her to me.
Aggression is notably less, and rape activity has dropped off to a few desultory thrusts at the food dish and exercise wheel.
Is it rape to fornicate with an inanimate object? On the one hand, rape is frequently defined as sex without consent, which an inanimate object by definition cannot give, but on the other hand can the act even be considered sex when the partner is inanimate? Either way, this has serious implications for the entire sex-toy industry.

Does not apply to Hitachi wands or Pirex rods or silicone massagers. Those are all just fine and dandy… Whatever you might fantasize about while holding them.
Are you saying I should make amends to my hand?

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahah we are at peak retard.
apparently masks are magic.
also if we had masks we wouldn’t need to do any of this.
So she got the lil’rona from getting a test? Am I reading that poorly written article right?
Now that’s a rumor I’d like to see go viral.
It’s a pro mask article for retards. Apparently they had the virus, still worked but the cloth masks protected all their customers.
Oh she got her results two days after getting tested….lol I was descending into some Infowars territory with that.
So Governor Bullock (Montana) just instituted the “all masks in public all the time” directive. With only about 1% of the whole U.S. having contracted the virus, there is no way we’re getting to herd immunity in any reasonable amount of time, so I guess it’s masks indefinitely.
Is this an admission by you that masks do work to delay catching the ChiComVirus?
In a country as large as the United States it can take as long as 8 months for a virus to spread around. Check the article at the very end of the page at this link https://www.aier.org/article/the-2006-origins-of-the-lockdown-idea/
Also, this Jeffrey Tucker’s article is a must read.
No, I mean that since this virus will only begin to recede when we achieve herd immunity, and since the virus is spreading so slowly (contrary to how the headlines make people feel), it seems there is no end in sight to the mask requirement. I mean, how long are we going to be forced to wear them? A year? Two? Five? It’s pretty much indefinite.
So dad was positive, now negative but was asymptomatic even while in the cancer ward. Does his genes mean that I am super-spreader? Or at least the chance for it? That my genes are that of a demi-god and I won’t even know I had it?
It means you’re going to die, someday.
..on a long-enough timeline….

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pawnee_capture_of_the_Cheyenne_Sacred_Arrows
***
Pawnee Chief Big Eagle concluded they had captured something of extraordinary importance when he examined the arrows. He was keeper of the Morning Star bundle of the Skidi Pawnee and placed three of the arrows in that bundle.[13]:650 [14]:66
Some time after the battle, the best Cheyenne arrow makers made four surrogate Sacred Arrows.[6]:53[12]:558–560 However, they also tried in various ways to retrieve the originals. Once, they invited Big Eagle and the Pawnees to their camp. In return for the four arrows they promised the guests many horses. Big Eagle expected treachery and brought just one arrow wrapped in a bundle. As feared, a Cheyenne rode away with the arrow in an unguarded moment.[13]:657 Another source recounts that three Cheyenne, White Thunder, Old Bark, and Doll Man traveled to a Skidi village in 1835 where they were received in Big Eagle’s lodge and given one Buffalo Arrow. Despite gifts of more than a hundred horses, no more arrows were returned.[7]:39
In either the winter of 1843 to 1844 according to a contemporary source,[15]:141 or in 1837 according to more modern sources,[7]:39[16] the Lakota attacked a village of Pawnee and retrieved a single medicine arrow. They recognized the Man Arrow and returned it to the Cheyenne in exchange for one hundred horses.[7]:39[15]:141
Two of the remade Sacred Arrows were now in excess. A ceremony was held, and the Cheyenne left two of the new arrows in a bundle in a crevice of the Black Hills, near the place where Sweet Medicine had received the original arrows. There they remained for a long while, and were occasional visited by Cheyenne travelers, before eventually disappearing.[6]:55[17]:224
Efforts to restore the additional two original arrows were again made in the 1890s and 1930s to no avail.[7]:40–1 The return of the remaining arrows remained a source of bitterness for generations.

Russell Means, actor, Indian activist, and seeker of the LP presidential nomination, once assured me that Native Americans were entirely peaceful until they learned to hate other tribes at the instigation of white European colonialists. Most of the stories of Indian on Indian violence were, of course, fake news invented by the whites to illustrate why Indians were savages. Other than this, Means was a pretty cool guy.
Every libertarian is allowed one batshit crazy belief.
Are you saying most of us are over our quota?
We live in a time of overabundance.
Oh, well played.
My batshit crazy belief is that humanity is not all bad, and one day people will learn not to stick their noses into other peo……
Ha! Couldn’t do it. Even I’m not that crazy.
Better than mine:
The majority of the Star Wars prequels are just as good as the original trilogy.
*slow whistle*
That’s definitely over the line.
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it
This is not crazy. It’s controversial, but not crazy. Any sane person can make a case that the original movies were every bit as shitty as the prequels.
Don’t make me crawl through the internet.
At the very least, CPRM proved to me that all three prequels are a single editing pass away from this being 100% truth.
“The person who is really in revolt is the optimist, who generally lives and dies in a desperate and suicidal effort to persuade other people how good they are.”

Well except for the time he did exactly that, you’re right he’s never done that.
Holy crap… My home state just doesn’t rest.
Asheville votes to provide reparations to black residents. Here is the money quote:
“This process begins and is perpetual, repeating this process over and over again,” Young, who is Black, said in the statement. “There is no completion box to check off.”
https://abcnews.go.com/US/city-council-asheville-north-carolina-unanimously-approves-reparation/story?id=71795059
Fuck that shit
It looks like what they’re offering are the same programs (increasing minority-owned businesses, access to education, etc.) for decades and dressing it up as “reparations”.
Yup. Salesmanship!
That would be tribute, not reparations.
Reparations would be a one-time payment and one-way ticket in exchange for passports and citizenship.
So is white flight going to be the next trouble in Asheville?
That was my thought, too.
“Time to move.”
Visited a few years ago. Toured the mansion. There were a couple of nice eateries. No desire to visit again. “bye”
It’s hard to enjoy your food when everything smells like patchouli.
No lie. There were smellys.
Isn’t it the town that was in the news like a year ago because bears and humans lived harmoniously there? So disappointing.
Meh, if you’re gonna grift, grift big. it’s all pretend money anyway. I gotta admit to having an odd kinda respect for the people out there that just say “fuck it” I’m going to get all I can and I don’t care if it fits with some bullshit ethics or not. (obviously this ends at actual violent robbery) But the guys running the long cons or playing ‘the politics game’ I got a soft spot for them, probably due to watching too many heist movies, you put that much work into something you deserve the goods. I sometimes wish I had pursued that route versus the honest days wage for an honest days work one I took.
” honest days wage for an honest days work one I took”
Sucker.
Exactly!
Looking at a Biden win and 2 T worth of Green Scam coming. There must be a way. Maybe sell Energy Rocks or something. Its what happens when all the pet rocks grew up and let home. I’m sitting on a fortune of Energy Rocks, need some distributors. Replacement for Tesla batteries
Call them ‘opaque crystals with unique healing powers’ and sell ’em online. You’ll clean up.
*These statements have not been validated by the FDA
(if it kicks off I get 15%)
I tried a chiropractor one time who pulled out the crystals to measure my energy field. I quickly said ” I’m out.”
Where are they going to get the money for it?

These folks really are amazing.
Did we do the one where the “fact checkers” at USA today ruled that the claim that a Trump campaign T-Shirt with the American Eagle insignia on it was using a Nazi symbol as “True”.
“Despite the fact that this is objectively false, we rule this as true, because Trump is obviously a Nazi.
https://www.foxnews.com/media/usa-today-trump-campaign-shirts-nazi-eagle
A quick check shows that they have silently edited “true” to be “inconclusive”, despite their own ‘evidence’ showing it to be quite obviously false.
Babylon Bee responded to USA Today’s tweet about the TRUMP NAZI TSHIRT with this:

From the comments:
“Taylor Swift, who has made $360M singing about her terrible choice in men – now endorses Joe Biden.”
today I learned that the words mustache and masticate are related
***
also moustache (chiefly British), “the hair that grows upon the upper lip of men,” 1580s, from French moustache (15c.), from Italian mostaccio, from Medieval Greek moustakion, diminutive of Doric mystax (genitive mystakos) “upper lip, mustache,” related to mastax “jaws, mouth,” literally “that with which one chews,” perhaps from PIE root *mendh- “to chew” (see mandible), but Beekes says this whole group of Greek words may be of Pre-Greek origin.
Borrowed earlier (1550s) as mostacchi, from the Italian word or its Spanish derivative mostacho. The plural form of this, mustachios, lingers in English (the mustache sometimes was considered as the hair on either side of the lip, hence the use of the plural form). Slang shortening stache attested from 1985. Old English had cenep “mustache,” which is related to cnafa “boy” (see knave). Mustache-cup, one with a fixed cover over part of its top, allowing one to drink without dipping the mustache, is by 1868.

Really bummed that Kanye dropped out.
Well, to be fair, he started way too late and was never going to get ballot access in enough states. He wasn’t one of the important people, after all, for whom the rules can always be bent.
It will be interesting to see if that comes in to play this fall. I’d say there is a fair chance that Biden cannot make the finish line. If he drops out after the final deadline for ballots, I wonder what will happen?
He is a gay fish, so he would have had to speak to that at some point.
So… you love fish sticks too?
Shh, you will make GT self conscious. She is another gay fish.

You have stolen my dreams and my middle-agehood with your empty words and yet I’m one of the lucky ones. People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing.

There will not be any solutions or plans presented in line with these links here today, because these links are too uncomfortable and you are still not mature enough to tell it like it is.

Hey, Mo. I was going through some my old comments and noticed that after a few of my more emotional, drunken rants you took the time to make a few thoughtful comments about them and I, usually being on the verge of passing out right before commenting, never bothered to respond. So,…sorry about that. I honestly appreciate you showing some empathy/sympathy?/fuck it/ in those instances.
Anywho, toodles!
Hey! I don’t remember any of it, but thank you. 🙂 I hope you’re feeling better than you were then.
So much amnesia around here.
Please keep in mind that if you view my comment history and see contradicts abound about previous life experiences it’s kost likely due to excessive drug and alcohol abuse, not blatant deception.

The full body camera video of Daniel Shaver’s murder was released. Don’t watch if you have blood-pressure issues.
From 5 second in the cop was wanting to put bullets in that kid. “Get down!” *guy gets down* “Apparently we have a failure to understand commands”
Cop was rehired long enough to qualify for a medical discharge (PTSD) and pension.
I mean, I would have PTSD too if I knew after two compliant suspects did what I asked of them and I still put a barrage of lead down range.
You have a concsience.
I don’t buy the cop had PTSD.
I know that. I want to project my humanity after watching that.
Nope. Sorry, dude. Ain’t happening tonight. Thanks for the heads up.
I thought the whole thing had been released a while ago? I remember seeing what I thought was the whole video on Eric Peters Autos not long after it happened.
OT: Okay, it’s far past time for me to contribute more to this site than a few random gifs, a long ago submitted, only once used as an image add on to the afternoon links called STEVE SMITH: THE STEVE SYSTEM vertical panel strip, a few shekels here and there and an article about the trivial sport entertainment known as boxing. So, before the beginning of August, I’m going to dust off, obsess over, agonize, stress, drink, chain smoke, and hate every fucking word I submitted as an article to the staff in the form of the argument for the repeal of the The Reapportionment Act of 1929.
For better or worse, I want our representatives to reflect the will of the people at the most local level possible. If that happens to make the defense of classical liberalism less likely, well, something, something, get the, something, deserve, something.
When the inevitable flaws in my arguments arise, please, point them out and challenge me. It shouldn’t be that hard. 😉
I look forward to it sir.
Thank you.

What?
Was he hacked?
Yeah. All the blue checkmarks apparently were compromised so Twitter shut them down.
Just shot down twitter completely.
That would be a net positive.
Thats awesome. I am sure that the DNC will use whatever is posted as fodder in future ads then.
The message is in Farsi, the language of Iran. The basic meaning is to criticize the Iranian govt for attacking protesters. I don’t speak Farsi, but since it has a lot of Arabic in it I can kind of read it.
Translation
***
Three people have been sentenced to death in Iran for participating in protests. Their execution is expected at any moment. The execution of these three people sends a deplorable message to the world and should not be done.
***
Trump wasn’t hacked. The tweet is geared towards an Iranian audience. The “deplorable” part is a funny coincidence.
OK, thanks.
various facts
Farsi (the language of Iran), Dari (the common language of Afghanistan) and Tajik are similar. Tajik used the Cyrillic alphabet until the fall of the USSR.
The main difference between Farsi and Dari is that in Dari, the v sound gets turned in to w.
The Arabic word for minister is wazir. In Farsi, it got garbled into vizier, and then in Dari regarbled back into wazir.
