We are midway through on the most useless of workweeks here in America. I have a backup holding down the fort while I figure out something better to do
I like to use this time to consider why I am thankful:
I am thankful I will not be waiting on a China plague vaccine until the end of next year like they are in Mexico. Just buy one of the three we have guys…
I am thankful I am out of free articles from the New York Times, who argue Biden can inspire Latin America. Idiots, he can’t inspire …. lets make the end of this sentence a contest… he can’t even inspire____ to ____. Best response wins a prize slightly more valuable than being first.
I am thankful I am not a Wal-Mart shareholder.
I am thankful United Airlines to begin flights to Latin America, with certain conditions. Now fleeing the country just got that much easier.
I’m thankful the Pope is a moron, so I have an excuse to post this picture…
Finally, I am thankful Guatemalans proved to be better at being American than actual Americans. Now we have no excuse.
For tunes today: I know these guys are posers, but whatever.
Early today? Won’t stop the champ.
No reference to links? No Bueno! Muchacha….
Even one that was teed up for him.
A true Firster, and make no mistake I am the First of Firsters, needs no prize. Being First is its own reward.
And might I add that it is my Firsting which is a reward given to the entire Glibertariat. It’s like casting pearls before swine, I fear. You people are welcome.
Feel free to keep it.
You’re welcome.
It is truly an honor to have you come around and piss on content someone else spent time putting together.
It’s not so much pearls before swine as it is the noise part of signal to noise ratio.
Who are you talking about? Because you just lost again.
you know how many first I have? so many I don’t care anymore, but since I play the links game, I get what’s down below, First Biotch!
Muy Grande Culo, Compremiso, DAAYUM!
Note to self: self, do not search for translations at work.

You jabronis are trying to steal my First. But you can’t have it. It’s there for all the world to see. Brochettaward First of Firsters.

People are pissed.
In that picture, he really does look like the old pervert from Family Guy.
Hahahahah. And the Progressives are still holding out that he will actually nominate Bernie to some cabinet position.
It would be funny to see how many GOP never trumpers he hires on. I have to imagine for the grifters that that was the game all along,
Senior Biden official? He hadn’t bran sworn in yet.
He’s just so good and has been around so long, that these things happen.
a younger set of Biden true believers who chose to work for him in early 2019 even when all of the cool young operatives were flocking to Beto and Bernie and Warren
Somehow, this seems like the most depressing thing I’ve read all day. In fairness, I haven’t read any news today until the links up top, but it still seems sad that there are a bunch of young Biden true believers.
True believers of every stripe project their own hopes and dreams onto the thing they believe in. That makes Joe particularly easy to believe in since he doesn’t stand for anything.
“The current fears about the transition being taken over by the previous generation of Obama staffers who make up Washington’s permanent establishment….”
Joe Biden. DC outsider.
“…are coming from a younger set of Biden true believers who chose to work for him in early 2019 even when all of the cool young operatives were flocking to Beto and Bernie and Warren.”
I guess there are Biden true believers not named Jill or Hunter.
I suspect neither Jill nor Hunter have any illusions about Joe, but they close their eyes and think of the sweet sweet grift.
Does any besides me wonder who is puttin’ to the good “doctor” behind demented Joe’s back?
Her Ex-Husband?
Dr. Morell only has Old Joe’s best interest in mind.
Hunter?
Huma?
Obama?
I’ve been giving some idle thought to the factions within the Dems, especially as folks argue that Biden won’t serve out his term. My thought is predicated on the idea that Biden & Harris don’t like each other personally, it’s a mutual use society. Second, it seems unlikely to me that Biden’s backers and staffers see eye-to-eye with all of Harris’ backers & staffers.
If any of that is correct, I suspect a lot of the next four years is going to be the factions inside the White House jockeying for power with Biden’s people desperate to keep him in place to save their own seats at the table.
…with the media playing the part of Lieutenant Frank Drebin. “Move along, nothing to see here!”
Alternatively, if the factionalism gets too great we might be treated to the sight of the left-wing media picking sides and sniping with leaks from each of the teams. That could be fun, and probably the only way we’ll get much of the press to try to hold the new president accountable.
Various lackeys and apparatchiks scrambling for new sinecures in the pre-Harris admin.
“You’re trying to kidnap what I have rightfully stolen!”
INCONCEIVABLE!
“People are pissed,” said the Biden adviser. “I think I’m going to be taken care of but I have not been taken care of yet. I am really interested to find out how you even find out how you got a job in this White House.”
Fuck em. Go find a real job that produces something of value you fucking political parasite.
Amen to that.
He can’t even inspire a Glib to Gripe?
Cmon your better than that.
I’m pretty sure i’m the only one who showed up for the challenge. I demand you recognize me as the winner.
I hereby declare first is split between Leon and Yusef!
It is good to see that TPTB have conceded this election. I will be assembling my transition team. Press releases to follow.
Can’t inspire a dog to lick it’s balls?
Hundreds of protesters demonstrating against Guatemalan lawmakers’ decisions to approve a controversial budget that cut education and health spending broke into the country’s Congress building Saturday, setting part of it on fire.
I thought they were protesting corruption. Turns out they just wanted more of other people’s money.
So they were protesting corruption, they were just protesting in favor rather than against.

And then I thought, maybe this is The new Battle of Concord. Maybe this is how it starts …

Amen.
If you want a different but interesting example of how the media are the enemy, listen to this report.
I like to listen to various international sources, and in the RSS feed there was what sounded like an interesting story about the port of Auckland going through a backlog, which I’d have assumed was coronavirus-related. The reporterette doesn’t seem to want the story, instead constantly interrupting the spokesman. And then there’s one case where the guy thinks she’s finished her question and starts answering, to which she replies “Hear me out”. No, lady, you’ve been interrupting constantly, why should people treat you the same way?
I’ve been missing the RNZ stuff since they appeared to drop their “Week in Review” podcast some months back. But I’ve recently started listening to clips from Checkpoint and Morning Report.
The thing that strikes me about RNZ (and NZ reporters in general) is that I’m not even sure they’re biased in the normal meaning of that word. They appear to be genuinely unaware that there are legitimate, defensible counter-positions to their views.
That said, listening to them trying to work with NZ First when they went into coalition with Labour was hilarious.
That is kind of a worse bubble. If they are reporters and not propagandists, then they have a duty to find both sides of a story. If they assume there are no other sides when there clearly are, they are willing participants in this garbage.
Yeah, I only cherry-pick individual stories because I don’t want to listen to things that are going to make my blood pressure rise if I can avoid it. I used to try to pick a story from the ABC’s AM or PM, but recently the “individual reports” RSS feeds have gone to links to the entire program, and on a lot of days the website doesn’t have the individual stories either.
I used to listen to international broadcasters back in the day when they were all still on short-wave.
You can get individual reports in both Checkpoint and Morning Report in their podcast feeds on iTunes (or iPodcasts or whatever it is now).
I don’t do iTunes; I do RSS because my listening involves downloading the MP3s to listen later in the day (or much later in the case of features that aren’t necessarily time dependent).
I listened to international broadcasters on my dad’s radio.
Ooh, long-wave. But nothing shorter than the 25m band? It wasn’t uncommon for stations to be in the 19m band or 17m band.
This radio model was very popular in the Soviet Union, so probably Голос Америки and Немецкая Волна didn’t use any band shorter than 25m.
He’s brutalizing her.

Fuck. So I hate forms and paperwork. As a result, I was pretty pissed when I was informed by a cop that my license had expired. Thing is, too much time had passed do I have to start from scratch. As a result, I’m now sitting through a mandated five hour course over zoom.
Holy fuck, this is bullshit.
Thankfully, the instructor has told us we can have cameras off. As such, I’ll be spending the next five hours drinking.

More news coverage of the attempt to impeach the Clown Prince
A group of five incumbents and two newly elected Republican House members are pursuing a resolution in the 2021 legislative session to investigate the impeachment of Gov. Chris Sununu for abuse of his constitutional authority during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The request follows Sununu’s decision last week to require that people in New Hampshire wear a mask or face covering in public spaces, indoors and outdoors, when they cannot maintain at least 6 feet of social distance.
Sununu’s latest mask order does not impose any fines or punishments for those who refuse to wear one.
It also includes nine exceptions to the mandate, including students and staff in schools and anyone with a disability or medical condition who is unable to wear one.
In response to Sununu’s order, 100 protesters held signs and hosted a noisy demonstration outside Sununu’s home in Newfields last Sunday.
“This move was not taken lightly,” State Rep. Andrew Prout, R-Hudson, said in a statement. “We must restore our government to its constitutional roots – with checks and balances — where the Legislature writes the laws and the executive branch implements them.”
“We must restore our government to its constitutional roots – with checks and balances — where the Legislature writes the laws and the executive branch implements them.” /but my democracy… wait…
Maine fucking over Sunday River Brewing again
A judge Monday found a Bethel restaurant in contempt of a court order to close its doors and imposed a daily fine of $5,000 starting Tuesday if it continues to remain open.
Oxford County Superior Court Justice Thomas McKeon told the co-owners of Sunday River Brewing Co. restaurant that they had failed to adhere to his temporary restraining order from October aimed at bringing the restaurant into compliance with Gov. Janet Mills’ emergency order in response to the coronavirus pandemic. That led to McKeon’s Nov. 12 order to cease operations.
An attorney for the owners, brothers Rick and Ron Savage, said Monday night they plan to comply with the judge’s order and not open their doors until their license is no longer under suspension.
They have been punished more than your average rioter. Oh. Right. The Savages defied the State.
I’ve heard Rick Savage will be on Tucker Carlson tonight.

The Cost of Lockdowns
In the debate over coronavirus policy, there has been far too little focus on the costs of lockdowns. It’s very common for the proponents of these interventions to write articles and large studies without even mentioning the downsides.

Kids are on government time, most likely using government resources for school. All households are declared a drug-free, gun-free zone. Please unlock your doors as agents will be arriving shortly.
There’s a lobbying group for that problem.
The thing to keep in mind is that the Majority Leader of the Senate, like the Speaker of the House, has a wide latitude of discretion on which bills get voted on, so if the Rs keep the Senate it will matter more what Mitch thinks than what Mitt thinks.
Yeah, Mitch has been #strong in the past.
It should be noted that that incident occurred when he was minority leader, not majority leader, which makes a big difference in what options you have, plus it was before all the scorched earth politics of the last decade. Not saying that Mitch has a spine of steel or anything, but in any case he’s better than the wet noodle Mitt.

Yep.

Robert Epstein did not kill himself.
Psychologist and search engine expert Dr. Robert Epstein appeared on Fox News’ Tucker Carlson Tonight yesterday to reveal his findings on Google’s search manipulation in the 2020 election, which Epstein claims could have shifted a minimum of six million votes in one direction.
So basically the state of California’s margin.
Search engine manipulation should absolutely be exposed so that people are disabused of the idea that a search engine is an unbiased tool, but even such manipulation has no more real practical result than all other biased media that has been around since forever.
Minnesoda has at least one new GOP legislator who I think has done something right. Erick Morensen has invited King Walz and Brother Keith to his Thanksgiving Dinner. He also said that Walz’s lockdown and Thanksgiving edicts are unconstitutional, so the invite was pretty much a put up or shut up moment.
Brother Keith has declined. Brother Keith said that Mortensen is a complete dick because Mama Ellison died of the Rona and that makes Brother Keith an expert on it.
It is a welcome stunt from the GOP. Let Walz enforce his orders or start backing down.
With a record like yours I am sure this transpired exactly as you say.
“That was just the strangest thing to see the president come out in the briefing room, we have White House staffers shouting at us to get in our places, he wanted to walk in the room, so he was ready, wanting to walk in the briefing room before we were in our seats. We had White House wranglers and staffers telling us to sit down because the president was about to walk in. He didn’t take questions, as we all know. It is worth noting. He has been in this period of dealing with losing to Joe Biden for the last three weeks now. Still has not taken any questions from reporters. So it is hard to put the cereal back in the box after you have gone cuckoo for cocoa puffs, and I think that is the situation over here. Just the strangest, weirdest thing I have ever seen in the White House briefing room.”
What is sad is that Acosta has some personal vendeta against Trump and he’s still not the biggest name at CNN. I mean you think he could have pedled that into his own evening show or something. Kick off Stetler or Cuomo…

I always enjoy reading the Mexican links!
I bowl in a league, at least for the time being, at a family owned/operated bowling center. They almost went under during the spring lock down. 2 weeks ago the County levied new restrictions on bars and restaurants, no more indoor dining or drinking – carry out only. Since they derive much of their income on beer and food sales they are scared shitless the County will find some pretext to shut them down again. So they no longer sell buckets or pitchers of beer. You can still order a bucket of beer but you will get 6 beers on serving tray – sans ice. Draft beer sold in cups only. They still sell food but instead of putting the food on a plate they serve it in a to-go box. They also require all bowlers to wear a mask while bowling – before the latest restrictions you didn’t have to wear a mask while launching your gutter ball. There were a few bowlers who protested but the majority of us understand how terrified the owners are of being put out of business. They have told us they can’t survive another shutdown – if the County closes them down again they are giving up, they are out of cash reserves. Makes my blood boil.
OK, now I’m pissed. The DFL and GOP are squabbling over Lockdown relief plans.
Why? Why would the GOP play this game? Their relief plan should be a) end the lockdown and b) end Walz’s emergency rule. But no, they want to give away $400M and (maybe) re-open gyms immediately.
I know people are hurting, but the GOP are going to get rolled on this. The DFL will give out gobs of cash to everyone, the GOP will get nothing of substance and Walz will talk about how he has bipartisan support for his policies.
Biden will inspire hundreds of thousands of people from Latin America to attempt to migrate here illegally in the belief that the border won’t be enforced. And they’ll probably be right.
On the flip side, Biden’s economic policies will inspire them to stay home, as there won’t be any jobs here.
Who cares about jobs when everything is freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?

This is why Trump needed to run a better campaign, and is another example why social media censorship matters.
I get that Trump smacking the media & Dems around helped him win in 2016. But he apparently never understood the difference between being an insurgent and being in power.
Sometimes you got to make mistakes before you can learn from them. The Dems learned from 2016 and brought it all to the Table.
We’ll see if the GOP adjusts in 2022 and 2024.
Yep. Trump turned their own tools against them in 2016. They weren’t going to let that happen again.
Doesn’t matter if your voice can’t be heard, and if the voting is rigged.
The GOP didn’t adjust in 2020. I see no reason to think that they’ll grow a set of balls in the next two years. Maybe if the Democrats start turning off the graft spigot…
From the dead thread:
Oh, to live somewhere with even one other rebellious person shopping.
Went into a Target today to get a folding table. Girl at the entrance asked, “Do you have a mask, sir?”
I nodded back politely, “Yes, I do.” Kept on briskly walking, sans mask. You want me to not shop at your store, you need to explicitly ask me to put on a mask. No one else in the store that I saw was unmasked. Austin is full of sheeple.

At the risk of drugs falling out of my ass, New Mexico Gauleiterin orders grocery stores closed
A dozen grocery stores around the state have been forced to close their doors after multiple employees test positive for COVID-19.
Under Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s public health order, businesses with four or more rapid responses in a 14-day period have to shut down for two weeks.
As KOB 4 previously reported, the closures affect several essential business including grocery stores in Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Roswell, Carlsbad, Farmington, Hobbs and Las Cruces.
So tortilla and rice lines it is.

Mudvayne. Sure as shit posers. Saw them at Ozzfest in 01 or 02, forget which. The lead singer is wearing bib overalls and after the first few songs points out that he is wearing bib overalls, and they are “…filthy, like we all are on the inside.” Almost as lame as Lincoln Park or Papa Roach.
Late ’90s-early 2000’s butt metal is the worst form of music ever to exist.
I give Lincoln Park a partial pass because they actually did some interesting experimentation with unconventional keys and chord structures. But Mudvayne, Papa Roach, Staind, Drowning Pool, and all the rest of that shit was just awful to live through…
Never heard of Linkin Park before I saw them open for P.O.D. in Raleigh in …. ’99 or early ’00. Did get some signed crap from them and P.O.D. from a record store meet-up beforehand.
Staind had 2 good albums (the popular one was their 3rd) and if you are disliking Drowning Pool before the lead singer died, your taste in music sucks. Lincoln Park was garbage all the way down, Papa Roach was shit.

Is the government going to cheat its citizens by collecting taxes even when the businesses are closed?
That’s different, we signed a Social contract, much more ironclad than one you can read.

Huh. Didn’t see that coming.
/fails to find still or video from Top Secret with the shack labeled Radio Shack
I can remember a time when you could actually buy a useful range of electronic parts/components at Radio Shack. Now Canada has “The Source,” filled with idiot youngsters who aren’t even aware that sometimes speakers don’t have Bluetooth installed and actually come with wires.
I like Digikey and Mouser, but it’s hard to scrabble together $100 CDN of parts to get free shipping.
I’ve got a shoebox or two in the garage with Radio Shack components.
I’d love to buy the Mercury car name and put out a new superpowered Cougar.
Howard Johnson’s is still alive somehow but imagine rebranding them with the old orange roof and the funky logo. Make the insides all googie and stuff. People would eat that shit up (post-pandemic)
You could always buy up some Cougars and repower them.
Also relevant.
Odd. Getting drunk at a restaurant while eating a ribeye and they’re playing 80’s New Wave music.
I didn’t know this was possible.
Sounds just like heaven to me.
It’s too good to be true. Just need some of my old buddies here.
Seriously. I want to know about this place, just in case it might be nearby…
?
Were you hungry like the wolf?
Any time someone makes a Duran Duran reference, an angel gets its wings.
Can you still call it ‘New’ wave 38 years later?
Until there’s a Newer Wave, yes.
It’s “post” modern.
I want to go to there
The kind of nice Catholic girl I’ve saved myself for…
You are getting shopworn, time to lower your sticker price.
I have just received a second hand report that a coworker, who I work very closely with, has Covid. I am really hoping this is not true, because I am hosting Thanksgiving for my family, including my 86 year old Father, and was really looking forward to it. 🙁 My 16 year old niece has become very interested in cooking and we were going to cook together.
Do you often open mouth kiss said cow orker? Have they coughed in face recently?
Did the coworker cough or sneeze in your presence?
It’s important.
She was feeling unwell on Thursday, but did not think it was Covid at the time, and I had an hour long meting with her in a small office. I would not cancel the plans except that my Father is 86 and it would likely be a death sentence for him.
…I didn’t know it was a she…now I get where the concern of exposure comes in…
in a small office
Sorry.
I hope you can have Thanksgiving.
I went ahead and cancelled because that gives my brother and his wife enough time to throw something together and have dinner with my dad
Well, at least the COVID vaccine is not currently mandatory for military members (unlike the flu shot).
On the downside, my appeal for Reservist access to the base gym was denied – even though larger bases in the Tidewater area have their gyms open to Reservists and dependents.
Not sure if I’m gonna try and set up something in my garage again – a little tight for space – or take a chance with the Anytime Fitness down the road and hope they don’t get closed down again.
To clarify – this is just since we went back to enhanced “HPCON C” at the end of last week – normally Reservists, etc have access to all base facilities.
And since gender is just like a construct man, you get access to all the women’s locker rooms too, right?
He can’t even inspire Heroic Mulatto to furiously masturbate.
But what about dejectedly masturbate?
No, that’s how he has actual sex.
Must be because his White Side is so racist against his Black Side, Two Bad.
Languidly.
Perfunctorily
He can’t even inspire John to post again on TOS.
How is it painting a flat color over a large area feels more stressfull than the meticulous detail work?
Is it the tedium?
Yes.
Well, I got most of the top roof, part of one wing, and the first color on the engine pods.
Turret, cockpit canopy, and foreward gones are fully painted.
I’m at maybe 30% of the model’s paint job.
And in glib-related news. I can’t find my wire cutters, so I had to order new ones.
Without wire cutters I can’t finish the remaining kitbash work and (finally) post the last article.
So you need dykes for your article? Are you trying for Q’s crown?
I don’t get it.
You must be using some form of slang or euphemism I’ve never heard before.
Slang for diagonal cutters.
Dykes also Dykes
Made in USA Crescents are the only
acceptable dikes. Kleins if you’re slumming it.
Also, flush cutters are for cutting plastics. Amateurs use dikes and leave knife ends on ty-wraps.
I need to cut chain and brass rod stock.
I’m not going to risk my high quality flush cutters on metal.
Uhhmmm…
Kleins or GTFO!
Only on Glibs can a serious comment about needing a tool inspire an offensive and very juvenile joke, which draws a pedantic argument about spelling, which starts an argument about tool brands.
I love this place.
Ahem, they’re dikes.
Dikes (dykes everywhere except US and Canada) to hold back the flood can be built by dykes who cut the wire needed for the construction using Dykes brand diagonal cutters sometimes called dikes or dykes.
For me, there is a bit of anxiety as well. Seeing large swaths start drying, and consequently looking different from the current work area, I start to second guess myself.
Sorta related. The magnifying elnses I’ve been using on this project have built-in lights. Good isea in theory. But they cared so little in manufacturing that absolutely zero effort was made to even aim them at the focal point of the magnification – you know, where the thin you are going to want illuminated will be.
I literally taped a pocket flashlight to the top and got better results in five seconds. It wasn’t even some fancy flashlight. It was one I for for free that has an annoying habit of strobing every third time you turn it on as a so-called “feature”
Silly, but fun.

I can stomach this take on John Denver.

A song from back in the Napster/Kazzaa days: Monkey Vs Robot.
I’ve been stuck on writing this months episode, what with waiting to see if any conspiracy theories came true, but here is the Thanksgiving episode from 2 years ago.
I managed to buy this booklet during an hour or so when it was available. Now it’s blocked by Amazon. I’ve just double-checked I can download it on my second Kindle, already after the ban.
Masks work loser, there’s a CONsensus doncha know?
Are you sure it was blocked by Amazon? Parts 1 and 2 are still available, and he tweeted that he had to correct the description and that it would be live soon.
It was blocked. Now the issue might resolve itself later.
Fair enough, seems it is available on Applebooks.
The President retweeting crazy ass Randy Quaid. What is this world coming to?

Quaid sounds like he’s above the mean sanitywise as far as aTwitter goes. He didn’t even insult or threaten anyone.
