I should watch that again soon. The remake isn’t bad either.
I’ve toyed with the idea of putting my books in the tiny little libraries around town, but I wouldn’t. They seem to be chock full of children’s books.
Writing children’s books seems like a minefield right now.
“My First IED”?
“Children of the Mine”?
“Little House in the Warzone?”
Yep.
If it’s not woker than the last book, the author needs to grovel at the alter as his career is washed away by the mob.
Mrs. Animal takes great joy in publishing kid’s books that are not “woke” or any other such horseshit.
Let me run my idea for “Free Market Ali and the Crazy Command-Economy Camel” past you guys.
“Caillou Gets Eyebrows and Hormone Therapy”
That Bison story seems paywalled everywhere.
I do a lot of my news consumption using incognito windows…
I do too, but it was still paywalled.

What’s a good pedantic jackass rifle? I’m thinking 45-70.
At that range, pretty much any calibre would do.
The Sharps was probably the most popular, in 50/90 Sharps, later in 45/70 Government.
Mosin.
7.62x54R ~3,700 J of fun!
I’m a bit of an outlier in the land where seemingly everybody hunts with a 30-30, but I love my 45-70.
It’ll put down one of our (smallish) whitetails or (not so smallish) feral hogs immediately, with no bloodshot meat.
With modern weapons, you can load it up hot enough to take on pretty much anything North America has to offer.
Can confirm. I’ve run loads through my Marlin 1895G that approach .458 Win Mag levels. Kicks like hell, but the gun handles them just fine.
Mine is in 444 Marlin. I cast some 375 grain bullets for it and loaded it up kinda hot. When I shot them I could feel the rifle bend and shake. It rattled my teeth also.
Do not recommend
I have a Winchester ’94 in 450 Marlin. It seems to hold up to the strain better and has a lead weight in the stock. That seems to absorb a lot of the recoil.

Speaking of books
“Amazon cancels bestselling book ‘When Harry Became Sally’ that challenged trans movement: Bookseller says it is purging books that ‘frame transgender identity as a mental illness'”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9355449/Amazon-says-purging-books-frame-transgender-identity-mental-illness.html
There are stupid books on every subject known to mankind. You’re going ban all of them?
They are a department of Minitruth.
So no old copies of the DSM?
Especially not those.
The online retailer explained its stance in a letter to Congress on Thursday, after several GOP senators demanded CEO Jeff Bezos explain why it had pulled the bestselling book When Harry Became Sally
Amazon would be better served if they just sold books and not make moral judgments but why the fuck are senators demanding explanations from retailors over what they chose to sell. Better Amazon response “We pulled the book because FYTW”
The counter to that is that they’re probably getting letters from government officials on the other side, asking them to ban more and more books.
“We sell the book because FYTW”, works just as well
No, that’s the job of pressure groups like SPLC, etc. The progs’ will be done, but government gets to keep its hands clean.

Yes its a major distraction of the nursing home shit because there are 3 other governors that followed his lead essentially.
Because the nursing home shit is likely to splatter all over a lot of politicians.
Distraction – and he really is an asshole.
He’s become a net negative to the party and has been excommunicated, now that he’s no longer useful. The usual (D) protections no longer apply.

I hate to say it, but the more of them that come crawling out of the woodwork like this, the more I think Andy is just-this-side-of-innocent of this stuff.
And the more I smell an effort at a kind of putsch. Recall that this all started when our ultra-leftist DA spilled the beans on the nursing-home deaths and suddenly all these gals remembered how handsy he was.
I suspect it’s all an effort to install herself in the governor’s office. Oh sure, there’s probably a Lt. that will have to warm the seat until the machine gets her elected, but this speeds up the process.

On this day a year ago I visited a museum for the last time. It was the Getty Villa. I will never visit a museum wearing a mask.

I’m slightly more optimistic about it finding a restaurant with staff unmuzzled at some point in the future.

The other day I posted an article about the proposed California curriculum where students would chant to Aztec gods. Here’s another article with some of the proposed chants:
‘The chant starts with a declaration that “you are my other me” and “if I do harm to you, I do harm to myself.” Before chanting the name of the Aztec god Tezkatlipoka, the text reads: “Seeking the roots of the truth, seeking the truth of the roots, elders and us youth, (youth), critical thinking through.”
‘It adds: “Tezkatlipoka, Tezkatlipoka, x2 smoking mirror, self-reflection Tezkatlipoka.”
‘Tezkatlipoka is the name of an Aztec god that was honored with human sacrifice. According to the World History Encyclopedia, an impersonator of Tezkatlipoka would be sacrificed with his heart removed to honor the deity.’…
But wait, there’s more –
‘“pulsating creation huitzilopochtli cause like sunlight, the light inside of us, in will to action’s what brings… Xipe Totek, Xipe Totek, x2 transformation, liberation, education, emancipation. imagination revitalization, liberation, transformation, decolonization, liberation, education, emancipation, changin’ our situation in this human transformation.”’
https://nypost.com/2021/03/11/california-proposes-curriculum-on-aztec-gods/
That doesn’t sound at all like government establishing a religion.
Do they get obsidian sacrificial knives?
Cuz that would be pretty rad.
Only if they sacrificed the people who wrote and enforced the curriculum, then started actually learning.

“WHO origins investigator defends Wuhan lab and blames lack of access on ‘anti-China political rhetoric’
A key member of the World Health Organization team that investigated COVID-19’s origins in China in early 2021 defended a Wuhan lab’s removal of a viral sample database from public view and said it was the fault of “anti-China political rhetoric” that resulted in the Chinese Communist Party blocking an investigation for a year.
Officials from both the Trump and Biden administrations have said the Chinese government worked to thwart investigations into the origins of the virus, which has killed 2.63 million worldwide, and the WHO-China report is slated to be released next week. Both administrations said China was not transparent and is still concealing key data. Congressional reports blamed China’s duplicity and the WHO’s incompetence for an outbreak becoming a pandemic.
Peter Daszak, the leader of the EcoHealth Alliance, which steered at least $600,000 in National Institutes of Health funding to the Wuhan Institute of Virology for bat coronavirus research, called the lab’s decision to take down a public database containing thousands of viral samples “absolutely reasonable” during a Chatham House discussion Wednesday, claiming the lab did so because it was hit by hackers. The discussion seemed to preview the WHO’s impending report, and Daszak attempted to justify the Chinese government’s yearlong intransigence by pointing to alleged anti-China sloganeering, without placing blame on China.
Daszak previously criticized the Biden administration for appearing skeptical of the WHO’s preliminary findings and defended China to CCP-linked outlets. U.S. Embassy officials in China raised concerns in 2018 about biosecurity at the lab led by “bat woman” Shi Zhengli.”
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/who-origins-investigator-defends-wuhan-lab-blames-lack-access-anti-china-political-rhetoric
So a guy who was elbows deep in funding bat coronavirus research at the Wuhan lab is on a team that’s investigating the Wuhan lab? In what moronic world are any findings from that investigation not thrown in the trash can?
“We investigated our actions and concluded we did no wrong” is a time tested technique.
Wait, China would have totally cooperated except that mean people criticized them?
“Inside the #MeToo Scandal That’s Tearing Time’s Up Apart
One of the group’s top members is accused of silencing a woman who’s trying to report sexual harassment. Her “sisters” are standing by her.
Time’s Up, the group founded by Hollywood power players to combat sexual harassment in the wake of the #MeToo reckoning, has spent the last week facing a reckoning of its own.
One of the group’s top members, Dr. Esther Choo, has been accused of silencing a woman who’s trying to report sexual harassment—and Time’s Up leadership is standing by Choo, even as at least 18 members of its sister group Time’s Up Healthcare have resigned in protest.
Time’s Up chair Roberta Kaplan, a powerhouse women’s rights attorney, confirmed to VICE News that she is now representing Choo, a fellow member of the Time’s Up board.
It all started with a $45 million federal lawsuit last month that accused Dr. Jason Campbell—known as the “TikTok Doc” for his viral dances on the platform—of sexually harassing and assaulting a coworker at Oregon Health and Science University.
Choo, who works as a professor of emergency medicine at the university, is not a defendant in the suit. But she’s accused of failing to report the alleged abuse, as required under Title IX, when the coworker told her about it in March 2020.”

Vipers, and the den they inhabit.
This would depend on whether there was harassment to report in the first place, which depends on the evidence in the specific case…

Bullshit. Portland doesn’t have a cleanup problem, then have a trashing problem.
How to clean up Portland
1) Kneecap the homeless “activists” and their commies allies
2) Aggressively enforce littering and anticamping. Use billy clubs to penetrate the haze of drugs and alcohol that their shit will not be tolerated
3) Chop off the hands of graffiti “artists”
4) redirect the hordes of lazy city employees to clean up existing messes. Fire the ones who don’t show up.
Of course none of that, or even close, will happen. Instead useless whining about how awful it is while continuing the incentives to trash the city.

I was going to comment on this, but then I looked at her Wikipedia page and found:
“Markle’s European American father, Thomas Markle Sr., worked as a director of photography and lighting for Married… with Children, and Meghan frequently visited the set of the television series as a child.”
…maybe this explains some things…
That guy has contributed a lot more to society than she has.
Sure, but he could have explained to his daughter that she wasn’t watching a documentary…

NO MA’AM.
For the “how dark is your baby gonna be?” claim, I gotta go with shit that didn’t happen.
Princess Smollett, the Duchess of Wails.
Hey man, don’t hate the player, hate the game.
Fuck it. I put the air on to bring the house down a couple degrees.
Did that last night.
Wow. Won’t need to do that here until, oh, mid-July or so . . .
All my windows and patio doors, open, 74 F.
Your ants have patio doors? That’s how you shitlord folks.
We had a high today of 64. Just about perfect.
And some rain overnight. That was super nice.
We had a high of 37 with some dusting of snow and snow in the hills behind the house. Vegas weather…one of a kind.
last week, we had a low of 48, and a High of 33, ain’t the first time this season either, odd weather up here,
64? Heaven, even in AZ
/I ‘member
We had to do that a few days ago. Annoying, but not worth suffering to avoid it.
Got some [win-ders] open upstairs. MBrm at the back of the house that gets the afternoon sun is 81.
I aired the place out a few days ago when it hit 55, the place needed it, but colder again, 35 today, 48 tomorrow, at least We were able to play Disc golf all week,
55-60 is perfect open windows weather. I’m guessing it’s great for outdoor activity too. I haven’t done anything physical since last August. 🙁
It’s Been great to be outside playing again, snow next week but not too much, my Routine consists of Work, Beer store, Disc golf, then go home, total fun,
Right now, it’s 73 degrees here. I go outside enough to smoke that it’s not worth turning the air on. For some reason though, the house seems to stay pretty cool unless the sun is right on you. I need to get shutters for my office.
Wait until August!
That;s when you get the really dry heat, right?
Dude, when 120+ comes, the air sucks the moisture from your eyeballs, no kidding, AZ is a beast……
Dad was stationed at Davis-Monthan. I know.
I remember playing backyard football. We would water the grass until it pooled up. It’s like getting tackled in a sauna. I had blonde streaks in my hair.
Bill now resides in South Carolina. It’s the furthest thing from a dry heat!
oops.was.thinking.az.
Normally I hold up the candle of extreme summers we have here in Vegas until the AZ glibs come around and then I go out and enjoy the 111 degree weather, happy as a clam, not being in AZ.
It’s mid-60s here and I just had to close a couple windows to cut the chilly breeze down. The other day it was in the 40s and I was having heat-flashes it was so hot – because there was no air movement and high humidity.
The air speed and direction is often more of a factor than the temperature for me.
Today was 10° C (50° F), and the pup is in her own little walking heaven, it’s so nice and sunny out. Much of the snow’s gone, too.
I’ll take it.
and for fuck’s sake. I demand my own personal edit fairy!
For fucks sake get yer own poon!

You use your backup cane.
I prefer a ricin umbrella myself.
I’ve seen cane guns come up for auction a few times at Amoskeag Auction. I think I’ve seen them at Rock Island Auction too.
Anyone have experience or thoughts on the CZ Scorpion S2? I think this is where I’m leaning with the foldable brace.
I have the carbine.
Love it.
The pistol version just seems awfully clunky to me.
That’s good to hear. I’m looking at the pistol version but hoping the brace helps with that. The pistol is just 16” folded which is about what I’m aiming for.
It shoots fine. I don’t think I understand the price differential over a 9mm AR (especially the mags — holy fuck!). For the money, I’d rather have something other than a simple blowback.
Simple blowback 9mm AR uppers beat the ever-loving shit out of the lower, even if the bolt is properly ramped.
I haven’t noticed that since I got the heavy buffer and spring in it. Before that, I broke two bolt releases.
They’re about the same price as the AR-9s over at PSA but only about 16” vs. 21-25” for AR-9s.
I have no idea in these uncertain times. I put my AR together for <$700 and much swearing and experimenting with buffers and springs. The CZ was well over $1000 then, comparable to a CMMG Banshee.
They seem to run pretty well.
Thanks. I took your suggestion to steer clear of the rifle caliber. I think this one is just what I’m looking for.

The rump professionals justify this commercialisation of radicalism on the grounds that it is ostensibly morally committed to resisting racism, patriarchy, fascism, or even capitalism itself. But the main effect of the product is to create cultural barriers between the fallen professionals and the ordinary workers, so the fallen professionals will continue to politically identify with the rump professionals and therefore with the rich. The language is used to label the ordinary worker a deplorable bigot, and the ordinary worker responds by seeking the absolute destruction of these professionals through right nationalist politics. Mortified by the right nationalism of the workers, the rump and fallen professionals lean ever harder into denouncing them as bigots, creating a vicious cycle which pushes the workers further and further to the right.
For some time now, the left has sought to use these fallen professionals as “class traitors”. They are supposed to lead left-wing movements and organise on the ground. But the fallen professionals cannot do this, because they have contempt for the people they are trying to lead. This contempt is nurtured by the cultural content manufactured by the rump professionals.
Interesting, but in think he misses the root of the problem. Namely, a government subsidized university system that removes market forces from education.
He refers to the house slaves of capitalism, but it is not capitalism that created this scenario, but government funded socialist indoctrination camps.
I would say that is a major blind spot for a lot of people. They can see there is a problem, they can spot the general direction of it, but it cuts too close to the bone for too many people to put their fingers exactly where the problem lies.
If the drugs are between my ankles, just excuse me, but I hadn’t seen anything here about this.
The way I read that, all they are decided is that the law was not severable from the implied lack of requirement of intent. So the legislature could craft a new law banning possession with knowledge/intent to violate the law.
Still, anyone convicted under the previous law would be in good shape.
And, reading farther down in the article, the legislature is indeed attempting to do that.
See, this is how I sometimes agree with these commies, although their reasons are for reasons I totally disagree with.
They’re so fucking stupid that they believe that once they have their beloved communism, they’ll still be able to have their drugs of choice.
Of course, they won’t, they’ll be sent off to a re-education camp for even thinking about it.
You’d think they’d have enough functional grey matter up there to figure that out by looking at how that works out in China. Of course, they do not, which is whey they’ll be the first idiots up against the wall.
Damn. If it weren’t for all the other stupidity, WA would seem like a Good Place(TM).

Thanks, mang.
Haven’t I seen her before? It was either on this site or in a Japanese horror movie, and I’m just kidding about that last one.
Well, if she crawled out of my TV I could accept it. “May I get you a towel? Or something?
Especially local news from my home county.
As a courtesy and wanting to read the news in a fellow mountain country Glib’s home county, I undid the adblock to read sourced article. Holy fucking shit Riven! That was worse than Daily Mail. I never made it to the article.

There’s an enormous amount of Tweets from the last year that haven’t aged well. And the people who authored them should have their noses rubbed in it at every available opportunity.
As far as I can tell, nobody pushes back on this woman at all.
That’s amazing. And dispiriting.

Nice pictures
Thank you. I feel very fortunate to have them. Not many people have photos of their family going back that far. Somehow I have become the unofficial, official keeper of my family’s past. I have hundreds of photos, my great grandfather’s anvil….I had my great great grandmother’s fiddle (I gave it to my grandfather’s brother’s son – He has a band and a recording studio in his house…definitely the right guy to give it to) and the list goes on of the stuff I have. I dont think of any of it as mine. I am just one generation of stewards and will pass it all on to my son.
Hey, I have a great-grandfather who was a Civil War vet as well. Served with a Wisconsin volunteer infantry regiment, was wounded, died of complications in his late forties.
Sadly your great granddaddy and mine may have faced off in that horrible war. Mine was a cavalry officer in the Catahoula Parish regiment.
Somewhere in the attic is his sword. I regret that his pistol was lost a generation ago but at least I have the sabre.
On the other hand, if any reparations whiners come around to either of us, we can reply that our families have already paid, and that they can stick their reparations right there where the sun never shines.
Oh, they will steal it through the govt and at best 10c of every dollar stolen will go to reparations, the rest soaked up by the govt. That is being generous. It will probably be less than half of that.
They are just thieves with one hand out and the other with a gun in it.
Bad things happened a long time ago between people that were you and weren’t me. Now worthless, thieving shitbirds want money from us with that as a pretense.
One of the important ideas that christianity popularized is that you dont lay the sins of the fathers on the sons.
