An incredible game
What a crazy weekend of sports. You had easily the best soccer game of the year with the Liverpool-Man City draw. You had Florida getting beat by Kentucky in football as well as aTm shitting the bed in a fantastic way that made me incredibly happy. Oregon collapsed with the help of some dubious officiating. The Buckeyes got back to form against lowly Rutgers (who look TTUN to the wire last week, by the way), and the Browns won an inexplicably poorly played game while the Steelers need to consider putting Big Ben out of his misery. But the best news was that we’ve reached playoff time in MLB. The Dodgers, after having come second in their division, will play St Louis, who also came second in their division, to see who has the right to play San Francisco, who had the best record in. the NL. Because that’s how it works. The Yankees and Red Sox will square off with the winner facing the Rays. And the other matchups will be Milwaukee-Atlanta in the NL and Houston-Chicago (AL) in the AL. Should be fun. And that’s sports.
Jew-hater
Big birthdays today include English ruler, but not king, Richard Cromwell. He shares it with president (and Buckeye) Rutherford B Hayes, photography pioneer William Griggs, artist and sculptor Frederic Remington, writer Damon Runyon, genius actor Buster Keaton, shortstop Frankie Crosetti, baseball player Red Munger, actor Charlton Heston, football HOFer Sam Huff, writer Anne Rice, HOF infielder and manager Tony La Russa, actress and nutcase Susan Sarandon, actor Christopher Waltz, hip hop magnate Russell Simmons, actress Alicia Silverstone, antisemite Ilhan Omar, and pitcher Jared Weaver.
Right, on to…the links!
Idiot tyrant
Whatever, asshole. His comments on Christmas, ending religious exemptions, and other constitutional violations were extra hilarious. We’re over it, dick. And you can’t change that.
OK, your point is? These were all legal moves. They weren’t hiding or shielding anything except to keep them from shit-stirrers like you.
Technically, the answer is yes. Practically, the answer is no. Jesus, they just said mail delivery is gonna slow down and now people want them to be a bank as well? Let’s work on that primary function first, ok?
Holy shitballs! A company often prioritized its interests over that of the public? That’s incredible…said nobody ever.
“We will tell you what’s misleading,” said Twitter. As they continue to publish misleading obituaries that blame the unvaccinated for all kinds of shit they had nothing to do with.
Recording someone in a bathroom is a crime, asshole.
Is this not insurrectionist behavior? They were terrorizing her, at least according to the post-1/6 standards that have been set. Also, recording someone inside a bathroom is illegal. But I sincerely doubt anything will happen to these people.
Here come the sob stories. Meanwhile, every business has a “Now Hiring” sign in their window. I have no sympathy, except for the landlords who had a state deny their rights under contract law.
Yikes, this is bad. Hopefully they get it stopped and cleaned up soon, because this is not good at all.
This is good news. Although something tells me it’s a bit redundant with something that’s already on the market and a hell of a lot cheaper. But what do I (or a billion Indians) know?
Here’s a masterpiece. Enjoy it.
And enjoy your Monday, dear friends!
whaddup doh ?
I was happy tOSU game was what it was….I went to bed at halftime.
I expected more out of Rutgers. Especially after taking the game to the final possession in Ann Arbor. I was pleased.
Yes, Oregon State is doing the best in the one conference that matters.
Sadley, my Cougars aren’t doing so hot.
Cougars? As in, BYU?!
“Holy shitballs! A company often prioritized its interests over that of the public? That’s incredible…said nobody ever.”
The problem is that entities like facecunte always act like they are totes cool with that shit even when they are not.
“Is this not insurrectionist behavior? They were terrorizing her, at least according to the post-1/6 standards that have been set. But I sincerely doubt anything will happen to these people.”
Also, very creepy. Feminist men are the worst.
the post-1/6 standards
They are supporting the regime by attacking a heretic so it’s all good.
“Why are two people denying the will of the people by not voting in lockstep with the party that holds exactly half of the Senate?” they said, unironically.
The same party that is divided internally but being whipped on by a group that isn’t even the majority WITHIN the party.
That doesn’t matter. They have a mandate. I don’t know where they got it. They probably went to a trophy store and bought one or made it at home.

We’re getting perilously close to that last part.
Modern progressivism is anything but a mass movement.
Mass movements don’t necessarily need cogent principles, just devils to fear and strive against.
Depends on how you modify the word movement. e.g. “mass bowel movement” works.
And more seriously, I might be convinced it is a mass movement. Progressives have been doing the hard work in the institutions for many many decades. While the majority of people don’t necessarily embrace any one specific implementation of the progressive policy especially when spelled out, the general zeitgeist of the culture, the assumed unquestioned axioms if you will, are tilted heavily in the direction of progressive ideology. One can counter it, but in the main, when debating a policy or idea, for many (mass) people, the null hypothesis is progressive.
Progressivism is inversely loud to the actual support it has. We’ll have far more to worry about when it quietly goes about destroying our society.
quietly goes about destroying our society
You might have the arrow of time reversed. I would argue that it’s been quietly destroying our society for some time now. Now that the quiet phase has set the cultural baseline in practice if not in spirit, we’re at the loud phase.
To get pedantic, they don’t even hold that, merely their coalition holds just half of the Senate. The Senate is split 50(R)-48(D)-2(I). In Parliamentary terms they hold a minority government.

Relax. The links are a work in progress until at least 7:10.
I am tempted to go in and put it back.
Not to dwell on sports too much, but if the Cardinals beat the Dodgers this week, I bet even money that MLB expands the playoffs within two years. I hope the former happens. I hope my predicted result doesn’t.
32 team playoff? They can fill with a couple AAA teams starting a promotion/demotion system.
“That’s a terrible idea.”

“With winter fast approaching, experts have warned of the double threat Covid-19 and the flu could have on an already strained health care system.”
Whycome influenza wasnt such a big concern a year ago?
I sure hope a bunch of of people mask up this year so we can completely eradicate the flu again. Even if it has no effect on covid numbers because not enough people are masking up.
Did I get that right. CNN?
I tend to listen to WHIO radio at work all night- Coast to Coast AM (RIP Art Bell). They break in with national news from CBS, that kept playing soundbites from the “Womens Rights Rally” in DC, where everyone was chanting “my body my rights”.
I wonder how many of those screeching harpies are fully behind forced vaccinations and gov’t mandates for the shot.
“That’s different, you covid murderer.* This is about our right to control our own body**, not your right to kill people..”
*Even though its unlikely you have and are transmitting the virus
**that another, completely different person is developing in
A shut-in twitch streamer acquaintance of mine vaccinated and sick as a dog, coughing, fever, the works. He popped online to tell us to stay safe. Well, excuse me. If someone who practically never leaves their house can take two shots in the arm and get wrecked then perhaps withdrawing from society is fucking pointless. Maybe returning to normal healthy routines is what everyone always needed. At the very least can we stop punching ourselves in the dick?
Good morning sloop and glibs all! Happy Monday!
If you refuse to punch yourself in the dick, the Biden administration will have to mandate that you punch yourself in the dick.
“Please disclose your dick punching status to us by 5pm Friday.
Besties,
HR”
“If you have not disclosed your dick punching status by the deadline, it is assumed you have not properly punched said dick and you will be subjected to a weekly punch when entering the office”
Is there a dick punch testing option available?
“The Science” says that dick punches are safe and effective.
I’m sure there’s some bizarre rationalization about how you have no right to endanger someone else’s body, but an unborn baby doesn’t count as someone else’s body.
It is like I’ve told my wife when she asks if a plant is a weed, “A weed is a plant you don’t want.” Likewise, whether it is a person or just a clump of cells is simply a question of “Do you want it?”
It really is that simple.
That’s DIFFERENT!
Shut up and let the fear flow through you.
Sports wise, something feels right about watching Clemson struggle on offense and try to give away games with weird play calling. Reminds me of the Hatfield/West/Bowden era. Maybe we’ll drop some of the idiots from the bandwagon.
The two losses have also made me happy. I hope they do more of it this year.
I think they have one or two more left in them. Dabo is pretty damn stubborn so I don’t see him making any real adjustments as the season progresses.
They would have 3 if my school had a competent OC.
In NY they extended it to January. And everyone will wonder why the economy continues to lag behind every other state.
I thought they’d already determined the reason they’re lagging behind is because DeathSantis is infecting vacationing NYers and sending them back home to further the spread.
I actually talked to a lib this weekend that told me he preferred the economy tank, even if it hurt him and his loved ones personally, than the other side be proven right. How do you find common ground with people that invested in their cult?
Remind them that they’re probably going to get the bullet first in the resulting chaos.
As long as we all know them getting the bullet first is for the greater good. Maybe they’re cool with it?
Yeah, this doesn’t work either. I have often explained to these assholes cheering the people currently being unpardoned by their cult, that all these revolutions start with wave one & two being enemies of the revolution, only to result in N number of waves of old revolutionaries & revolutionary supporters, being given the same fate (only with more torture) when they discover the leaders are evil and the revolution was coopted by evil. I then get a “This time the right people are doing it, so it won’t happen” answer practically every single time…
You don’t. There’s no common ground to be had. You just stop talking to them, and note them down as someone who should never ever be trusted with anything.
Remember when Rush Limbaugh said he hopes Obama failed as president, and lefties shrieked for weeks on end “How dare he wish for bad things for this country for purely political reasons!!!!!1!!!11”

“Reporter goes into damage control when rowdy NASCAR fans yell anti-Biden chant: ‘F*** Joe Biden’
Standing on the start-finish line of the famed Talladega Superspeedway in Alabama, an NBC Sports reporter was interviewing winning driver Brandon Brown, whose victory on Saturday marked his first win in NASCAR’s top three divisions.
During the interview, fans in the grandstands began audibly chanting against President Joe Biden.
The reporter, however, said the crowd was chanting “Let’s go Brandon,” in support of Brown’s victory. But footage of the incident makes it clear the crowd was chanting “F*** Joe Biden” — not “Let’s go Brandon.” The crowd continued their chant through Brown’s interview.”

SO I talked yesterday about the small plane crash. In the news today it was said it was the plane of Romanias most “discreet” billionaire, which generally is code for he was high ranking in the commie Secret Police and made bank in the chaos after the fall in the 90s, like many such rats did. He did with his wife and his son in the crash, and 5 more people. His son was the pilot apparently.
I remember reading about the 4-passenger plane that crashed in a cemetery in Poland. 1st responders found hundreds of bodies.
/really old joke
Also it is unknown who will inherit the wealth but apparently the business partner has knowledge and access to al, off shore accounts where most of the cash is.
Whenever I start thinking about taking flying lessons, I come across things like this.
The price of mistakes is incredibly high.
It’s not for the inattentive, flighty types.
That was plane terrible.
Babylon 5 reboot
I’m conflicted. It’s not a prequel, sequel or the like.
It is the cw so at least it will have younger sexier actors,
Oh, crap. I hope that’s not code for woke.
how are you with disappointment?
I have come to expect it.
Yeah, if that’s what it is I’m noping right out.
The original series was naive and made authoritarians the bad guys. In the remake Earth will rescue the station from horrible, horrible freedom, and everyone will wear masks.
Nightwatch and the Shadow are the good guys we need for the modern day!
Earth Gov will fall to a rag-tag group of insurrectionists after they storm the capitol while wearing horned hats which harness a dark power of the First Ones.
It’s not code, no…
Yeah, that was my first thought, as well. At this point in time, I really don’t trust any reboot. You’re mostly going to get the same old stories through the current woke Hollywood lens.
I’m crazily optimistic that it is more code for “Hey, Nightwatch is here already people…. maybe we should resist a bit better?”
Maybe I’m misremembering, but I thought JMS had Eastern European / Russian ties or roots or something. Part of what made Ivanova a good soundboard and part of what makes him more leery of authoritarians than your usual writer these days.
What’s-his-name is running it, so at least we have to keep an open mind.
…maybe? Did ORANGEMANBAD break him?
Also, ISTR him being very proud of “A View From the Peanut Gallery,” the absolute worst episode of sci-fi TV prior to the creation of ST:Voyager.
J. Michael Strazenski? He always seemed pretty individualistic to me, but I’ve been sorely disappointed before.
Yeah, but JMS was also behind “Legend of the Rangers” — so I’m waiting to see if he can recapture lightning in a bottle.
Be very glad if he can, and it is cool that he’s come out and said that he doesn’t want to just tell the same story the same way (getting the Sinclair/Valen/B4 timeloop variant would be interesting, imho) — but he put out an awful, awful lot of awful trying to do sequels too….
Yesterday I mentioned seeing a local beer brag about wining some US award show. Now I found the same for a hot sauce. While the beer award was from Lexington this is one from Wisconsin. I looked at the site and there are waaay to many categories. But indeed the sauce won in 2019

I dont know if its cause Im half-drunk or masochistic. Or both. But since I have SiriusXM, I thought that just for a change, Id listen to Howard Stern. Havent listened in years.
Un-listenable and so, so, disappointing.
That does sound like a fun experiment for about five minutes. I hear he’s gone full-blast woke and basically disowned everything he used to be.
Now that he’s got “fuck you” money he wants to be part of “polite society”.
That was evident when I stopped listening about 15 years ago.
Prolly a decade for me. When Stern was too stupid to realize that smack-addict Artie was nodding off and not “just taking a nap” on-air….
Oh, that was only 10 years ago? That was hilarious.
I quit around when he cut another day off his schedule, to make more room for hob-nobbing in Southampton I guess.
I bailed during the Sirius move – I was listening out of pure momentum at that point anyway, I wasn’t going to start shelling out money for it. Plus I was still walking to work and portable Sirius receivers weren’t a thing at that point, I think (are they even now?)
I held on for a couple years after Sirius but I didn’t pay for it, I found… downloads.

“Louisiana’s largest health system is ratcheting up the pressure to get people vaccinated against COVID-19 and will start fining employees hundreds of dollars each month if they are married to someone who is unvaccinated.

Ochsner has said all employees must be vaccinated by October 29 to keep their jobs.”

What a crock of shit.
Somebody is gonna go postal one of these days, and there are going to be a lot of people with muted sympathy when it turns out the guy targeted the company’s covid response team.
“What are they hiding? At the start of Covid many scientists believed it likely leaked from Wuhan lab – until a conference call with Patrick Vallance changed their minds. We asked for his emails about the call. This is what we got . . .
The Government has been condemned after refusing to release details of key email conversations involving leading scientists over the origins of Covid-19.
This newspaper used Freedom of Information rules to obtain a cache of 32 emails about a secretive teleconference between British and American health officials held early in the pandemic.
But officials blacked out almost every word before releasing the crucial documents.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10052689/Government-condemned-refusing-release-details-key-email-conversations-Covid-origins.html
At this point it would require solid evidence that it *didn’t* come from that lab. The timing and location, the behavior of the CCP, the gain-of-function crap that Fauci’s cartel were funding, it’s all extremely damning circumstantial evidence. The whole “a new, novel virus just happened to pop up down the street from this lab where they’re creating new, novel viruses of exactly the same type” theory is absurd.
That’s how I look at it. Too many things lined up just perfectly for this to be a coincidence.
I’m not even sure it “leaked”. Being a coronavirus, it is going to mutate. I wouldn’t be surprised if it turned out there were a few human test subjects a few years ago (remember, engineered viruses are patented and have been around for about 30 years – thank you gene therapy) and the contagion was spreading fairly harmlessly for a while until the virus finally mutated to a nasty variant in late 2019.
I believe it came from the lab. I do not believe it was released purposely.
Considering the number of known screw-ups at these labs, I definitely concur with the second sentence of yours.
Cock-up before conspiracy.
They’re known screw-ups, so that’s the way to bet. Followed by a bunch of opportunistic power-grabs.
Science dies in darkness
*pinochle applause
When are we going to be ready to admit that the virus release was intentional?
The freak-out and the call for a 2 week lockdown, a reaction we have NEVER had for a biological event, is proof that the unknown factor of which one of the chimeric viruses had gotten loos – the seriously deadly man made bio agent with potentially catastrophic consequences they were testing there were numerous, and at the time they had no idea if what got loose was one of the ones with super high lethality – was well known. The thing is that they quickly confirmed the viruses that had escaped (at least 2 variants) were NOT the super deadly ones. The proof in that is how within a month of real panic, the whole thing turned into a Kabuki theatre demanding people do the hokey-pokey charade by government decree. That was done because the globalists decided to take advantage of the event (never let a crisis go to waste) to get rid of evil orange man and drastically speed up the global reset that leaves us peasants fucked but the elites in charge (permanently according to them).
This seems the most logical explanation to me.
We now know they were also working on MERS variants in the same lab, which is a truly terrifying prospect. If that had gotten loose, what’s going on now would seem pleasant by comparison.
“We now know they were also working on MERS variants”
MERS has a 35-40% case fatality rate across all demographics. I guess we know which variant will “escape” next considering the eco-fascists are constantly jizzing Malthusian nonsense.
I wonder why Peter Daszak isn’t swinging from a lamppost? Bastard isn’t even one of the king’s men.
If that guy doesn’t have an “insurance policy” of documents ready to be released upon his disappearance somewhere, he ways dumber than I figured.

Didn’t someone say they were going to post happy links? Tried to sneak Merck’s pill in as good news, but forgive me for being a bit skeptical of a company that dissed their own out-of-patent drug as ‘unsafe’ even after promoting it for decades and distributing billions of doses for human consumption. Seem like fertile ground for some enterprising lawyer out there.
I’m not sure how investing significant amounts of capital into designing and testing a new drug while dismissing an alternative as ‘not being tested’ makes sense. Invest a fraction of that capital in testing of the cheap, easily available alternative for crying out loud. I understand the company going this route, but they shouldn’t be allowed to get away with it – not in a governmental coercive sense, but just in the sense of people pointing it out and maybe some of those tax-payer funded institutions doing some basic science. Well, I guess less tax-payer funded and more Merck/Pfizer funded via NIH/NAID. Never mind.
Merck want the best for you and you should be grateful
How do you expect all that congressionally-owned pharma stock to give a decent ROI without unethical/illegal subsides for overpriced and unnecessary drugs that will be involuntarily forced on the population? C’mon man™!
From a different article on Merck’s pill: “The broad spectrum activity of molnupiravir against RNA viruses, including other respiratory viruses, suggests that it should be a durable, useful molecule,” said Jay Grobler, who oversees infectious disease and vaccines at Merck.
Merck said data shows the drug is not capable of inducing genetic changes in human cells, but men in its trials have to abstain from heterosexual intercourse or agree to use contraception.”
Ummm…
“men in its trials have to abstain from heterosexual intercourse or agree to use contraception”

IT’S NOT JUST FROGS! — Alex Jones
I’m sure this is just precautionary…
I remember seeing a story years and years ago (when I was still single) about thalidomide being used to treat leprosy. Female lepers in the study had to take extreme caution to make sure they didn’t get pregnant while taking thalidomide.
It stuck with me because it was so depressing that I had to work my ass off to talk my way into debauchery with young ladies of questionable morals and here female lepers are getting all the action they can handle! WTF?
It works by altering the viral genetic structure so I suppose ganking your sperm is a concern:
https://www.pharmalive.com/covid-19-pill-developers-aim-to-top-merck-pfizer-efforts/
Why the hell can’t they just come up with a normal treatment that doesn’t involve this weird genetic shit?
Because its a coronavirus…but this time will be different! Our best efforts against them have always been to suppress the symptoms and let the body do its job but we have stepped across the line in thinking we can force the immune system to do it better.
This exactly.
Because all virii are just genetic poisons themselves.
Molnupiravir – is that Thor’s hammer?

It was the same rule in the covid vaccine trials.
To clarify: I was in the Pfizer vaccine trial. It was the identical rule. They said “you may not have unprotected sex during the trial”. I explained that my wife could no longer have kids and they were ok with that.
This is why when the social medias started to come out that said “there is no evidence the vaccine causes infertility or birth defects” I immediately thought… “How do they even know?”
I’m 98% sure they have this rule to protect from potential liability and public scrutiny. Even though they believe they are indemnified, babies make excellent emotional appeals.
Yes. They are limiting liability. If this completely untested substance they administered causes irregular pregnancies, fetal development issues, etc., they can say they told everyone that they had not tested and could not endorse the risk.
“A British columnist I detest, @NickCohen4, wrote an article defending free debate over trans issues. As punishment, a British lawyer and columnist who has anointed himself President of Trans People, @JolyonMaugham, urged women to come forward to accuse Cohen of sexual misconduct.

JolyonMaugham – fox killing just aint enough to keep people busy these days
“So often, these social justice causes that began with good intent are degraded into tawdry smear weapons.”
Feature, not bug. And I’d argue that these “social justice causes” rarely have any good intent at all anymore. These people are not Rosa Parks or MLK fighting legitimate injustice, they are power-hungry psychopaths and wanna-be tyrants using these movements as a vehicle to crush people they don’t like.
I usually only use this explanation for Engineering-types, but it can be adapted for normies also…
The word “social”, when used as an adjective/modifier in this way, is basically a Boolean NOT. When it’s stuck in front of a word, the resultant meaning is the exact opposite of the normal definition.
Social justice literally is the opposite of justice.
The social gospel is literally the opposite of the gospel.
Rinse and repeat.
Justice is the determination of righteous harm to another human being.
Criminal justice = if you commit a crime, it is ethically correct to take your stuff, put you in a cage, and/or kill you
Social Justice = depending on your place in society, we can deny you a job, take your stuff to redistribute to more socially favored people, put you in a cage and/or kill you.
“depending on your place in society, we can deny you a job, take your stuff to redistribute to more socially favored people, put you in a cage and/or kill you.”
We might even make you wear a big yellow star so people can easily identify you.
Pine is right. There’s is no need for “justice” to have a modifier – any modifier can only be to lessen it, not increase it.
I happen to have discussed the whole justice concept with the same idiot that told me he would rather the world burn than have to admit he had picked the evil side to back, and I am seeing a pattern where some people refuse to accept that the universe can not be fair if we are to have free will and be individuals. Thinking of what sort of fucked up brain one must have to be this far gone does make it easier to understand why these sorts of people feel an appeal towards totalitarian systems that force people to be insects. They actually believe individualism is a curse and the main reason there is no justice, I guess.
Me, I immediately get defensive when I hear anyone talk about justice/fairness and I know I am dealing with someone evil when they tell me THEY will work to fix injustice/unfairness.
I believe the legal system has a remedy for a lawyer urging false testimony.
You think a lefty will face accountability for trying to destroy a wrongthinker?
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
And this is one of the biggest problem I have with our current direction. The one system that we absolutely need to be impartial, the legal system,, is not. And it isn’t just the powerful that have more rights as it used to be (because they could afford more lawyers), but the corruption of the system such that it only goes after political enemies and turns a blind eye to the real criminals. Hillary & Obama will never be wearing the orange jumpsuits they should and making me my license plates despite the fact nobody deserves that fate more than they do.
As proof he’s not looking for false accusations, they quote an accusation by… Becky Watson.
(She was the Elevatorgate girl. When given a picture of the male attendees at the bar in question to identifier her “assaulter,” she claimed she was face blind.)
I had been blissfully ignorant of all of that, and now I am not. Thanks ever so fucking much.
Mail delivery is basically dead, so the post office turns to another dying industry.
A lack of access, the costs associated with banking and a distrust of the banking system also have discouraged some people from using banks, leaving them out of the system entirely.
Good, this means they won’t trust post office banking either.

She is too moderate if she is not against the post office and banking.

“unnecessarily moderate”
Only necessary if she wants to get reelected in a purple (likely red if not for election fraud) state after she barely won the first time around.
Perhaps the Democrats have a McCain of their own from that state.
She’s going to be invited to all the late night comedy shows?
Can’t have that, can we? He should be able to ram whatever he wants up our rectums with the ease of Astroglide.
The problem with banks sounds a lot like the problem with voter ID.
Do minorities really have that much of a problem opening an account? I have been able to open bank accounts when I had almost $0 to my name with no problem. I don’t remember much of a problem doing it either.
Class issue. I’m glow-in-the-dark white with (formerly) strawberry blonde hair. There have been times in my life getting a bank account was damn near impossible, but of course, that was a result of choices I made when I could get a bank account easily. Here’s where class comes in–what led me to those choices was my being on really hard times. I was on hard times because of untreated depression, and the drugs I take for it now are not cheap.

After making their grades and unpacking their bags, new students may be forgiven for thinking they are ready to launch themselves into university life.
But at one of Britain’s leading institutions, they must now clear one more hurdle before beginning their studies: they must accept “personal guilt”.
St Andrews has introduced compulsory modules on sustainability, diversity, consent and good academic practice and will not allow students to matriculate if they do not “pass” by agreeing with certain statements. The university is one of a growing number insisting that students undertake training on subjects including anti-bullying and climate change.
[…]
At St Andrews, the induction asks students to agree with statements including: “Acknowledging your personal guilt is a useful start point in overcoming unconscious bias.” Those who tick “disagree” are marked incorrect and too many wrong answers mean they have failed the module and must retake it.
Another question from the course asks: “Does equality mean treating everyone the same?” Those who respond yes are told: “That’s not right, in fact equality may mean treating people differently and in a way that is appropriate to their needs so that they have fair outcomes and equal opportunity.”
Students are also asked to agree with the statement: “It is important to think about and understand our own prejudices and stereotypes so we don’t treat someone else unfairly or inappropriately.”

Not religious indoctrination at all.
Seems unnecessary to play golf, imo.
Replacing divots is white supremacy.
Elite overproduction. We don’t need so much supply of preening midwit assholes. The excess of these types is ruining society.
you will not only get more but pay for it as well.
“It is important to think about and understand our own prejudices and stereotypes so we don’t treat someone else unfairly or inappropriately.”
Intersectionality determines what is unfair or inappropriate.

That Merck article is ridiculous. Just admit your little pills are reworked ivermectin, you fucks.
Gee, you mean exactly what the frontline docs have been using for a year and a half?
I hate these people.
But I love you all, so there’s that.
I realize that this will get me yelled at, but keep in mind I don’t have any musical taste.
I don’t get the love for the Clash. They have a couple OK songs. Their Sandanista album is unlistenable.
Correct.
Incorrect.
Sorry, but your inability to admit that Memphis BBQ is way better than the KC slop means that your opinion can’t be trusted.
You are wronger than wrong and also a terrible person.
Again you are 50% right. I am a terrible person, but I’m not wrong.
Memphis BBQ is the least of the BBQ styles that include tomato in the sauce.
I like how the most vitriolic comments here are always about food.
Pancakes > waffles.
Says the guy who’s handle is based on the one of the top 5 worst breakfast foods.
Again, WRONGER THAN WRONG.
OBE, you are incorrect. However, you are not a terrible person like the Pontiff is.
You eat rats for breakfast?
CANNIBAL!
Ok. Pancakes used to be my troll handle, back when changing handles was a thing that you just like, did. I hate all of you so very very much. Carolina style BBQ ribs are just better in every way. Did I mention I hate you all?
Not yelled at..shamed. Just messing. That is what is great about music. Melodies and rhythms hit people differently. Lyrics can invoke feelings differently. I was a young punk rocker secretly listening to Green Day back in the day until my punk mentor said “fuck that, you like it? Then who cares what anyone else thinks. You are a damn punk!”
That went around the romance community. “Fuck you, I like it.” Well, okay, I started it. I kept seeing people being shamed for liking a certain trope (e.g., hurt/comfort, forced seduction, Stockholm syndrome) because it wasn’t right-think to like those, and I got tired of it. Twilight and Fifty Shades of Grey were popular for a reason.
Cause deep down, Man is conformist and it has always been beaten out of those who stepped outside of society’s broad likes/dislikes that communities and cultures adhere to.
Lyrics.
That is where I go off the rails. I might be able to sort of tell you what a few lyrics in any song are. Maybe.
I don’t get all the music people who know the lyrics to an entire song and actually analyze them for deeper meaning. Beyond my meager brain cells. To me every song has the same depth. From I like big butts to any Dylan song.
Dude, does no piece of music ever just SPEAK to you on some existential level?
Nope.
I’m all over the map when it comes to music. I like listening to all sorts of music, but nothing has ever been of supreme importance.
I fully understand that I’m in the minority on this (and a bit defective).
A lot of it is because I have no musical ability whatsoever. I have never been able to sing. The few times I tried to learn to play an instrument have been abject failures.
I have an ASMR response to some music and then I’ll listen to the lyrics more closely, if they have lyrics.
For instance, I love Bach, but he doesn’t give me the chill I get when I listen to Rachmaninoff.
Bach is for mathematicians.
Rachmaninoff is for sex fiends.
Different areas of the brain gettin’ stimulated.
Then who is jazz for?
Um… I may or may not have written a sex scene involving Rachmaninoff. My heroine may or may not have been the one playing the Rach3 on the piano and … things … with the hero may or may not have happened. I’ll let you figure out the rest from there.
People who want to feel sad.
Why do people hate jazz?
Then who is jazz for?
Negros and marijuana addicts.
Top. Men.

I do like the shout-out to Filipinos. We don’t hear enough about the Filipino Menace, coming here and taking all our nursing jobs.
The Filipino menace: nursing, teaching, cooking. Like rats, they are everywhere, but they don’t congregate into Little Manila or Pinoytown. Fortunately there are enough around here that we do have a Filipino restaurant nearby.
I won’t yell at anyone for their musical likes/dislikes. Art is subjective. The Clash was such an integral part of my musical exploration that I still love listening to them more than 40 years later. I remember wearing out the cassette of their first album in my boombox. And then when London Calling came out – damn, what an exciting record.
I would describe Sandinista as a case study in a band’s implosion. You could tell that they had different paths that they wanted to explore. I actually think it was good to split up. I always liked Strummer’s post-clash work more than BAD.
For those who like Joe, enjoy some Bhindi Bhagee!
Jeez, I remember owning that BAD album.
I look back on it today and wonder WTF was I thinking. It’s terrible.
Never been a fan of okra, not even in a spicy tomato sauce.
No matter how it’s prepared, okra has always had one over-arching reaction from me: “slimy.”
Both of the times I had okra on my road trip, there was no trace of slime.
Both times it was also smaller fried bites.
This is the correct opinion.
The couple songs I like, I really like.
But most of the rest… ugh.
I’ve been traveling and not paying attention to the news. Is it true that an Australian Premier resigned because she was bribed by pharmas to impose vaccine mandates? I would love to see pharma execs frog-walked to a federal cell.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/10/domino-effect-new-south-wales-sinks-political-disarray-chaos-six-officials-including-premier-deputy-premier-exit/
Well, I guess that explains the North Korean-style governance.
Now that’s interesting…
They’re trotting out the racism defense and that racists are making their political careers untenable, so they have to resign.
To me, that’s an admission of guilt for something because being a victim of “racism” is a huge political winner for these guys. That’s like political crack and benefits their campaigns.
AFAICT, she resigned because she’s been secretly schtupping the MP from Wagga Wagga (not important, but ‘Wagga Wagga’ is too good not to mention).
Said MP is under corruption investigation for the usual small potatoes feather-bedding.

No mention of pharmas (disclaimer: I suppose state media could be squashing that)
More than one person wants to bang that?
sheesh…
She gives them a power boner.
This is one of those stories that make you say “good” but also sigh because there is a much simpler solution.
It is good to see the community colleges get back to their vocational training roots and teach useful skills. What is exasperating is that it has to be couched in terms of sticking it to the Big Corporations. And why don’t smaller meat processing plants just start an apprenticeship program? Why the need to funnel it through the corrupt eductrats?
But will it include intersectionality?
“I hate it when the dirty water splashes up and wets my backside.”

People pay good money for action like that.
“I think public toilets are icky” = go get psychiatric help for your OCD
“It bothers me that my wife wants to go to orgies without me” = stop being an uptight prude
Cry me a river sister.
Splashes up and wets your backside? Think about my problem. I have to coil up my cock to keep it from sinking to the bottom of that toilet. Sure I could just loop it around my neck to keep my hands free, but what if I get a sudden boner? Could rip my head right off!
If anyone still thinks the vaccines work, you should look at the data out of Israel. The most vaccinated country in the world just went through a seasonal outbreak that occurred at the same time last year and the IFR was almost exactly the same in both periods.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/israel/
Wouldn’t it be the difference between CFR and IFR that would show if the vaccines work?
If the total number of deaths over those periods were substantially different, yes.
But they are not. Daily deaths in August and September of 21 look almost identical to daily deaths in August and September of 20.
It’s highly unlikely that in a country with 90%+ vaccination rates, that all of those deaths occurred in the unvaccinated population. We would expect the death rate for the unvaccinated population to be about the same as it was last year, and maybe even lower if therapeutics were applied. If we believe that it’s only the unvaccinated population dying, then we have to accept a tenfold increase in the IFR for that population.
I feel like I’ve been in a perpetual state of rage for 2 years, but exactly where the fuck is our own data for the past 2 or 3 months on this?
This is bullshit. All I hear is over 90% of people are unvaccinated (but uses data going back to January).
They’re obviously burying the data from the last quarter. It can’t be good for their argument.
The numbers I hear always go back to at least March.
Every single fucking other country has some of this data by now.
Holy shit are we far gone.
I love the Hollywood movies where the CDC are the supremely competent heroes.
Such bullshit.
At least in The Walking Dead they imploded the CDC building in Atlanta cause it was useless.
Acknowledging your personal guilt is a useful start point in overcoming unconscious bias.
I don’t have any personal guilt to acknowledge and collective guilt is bullshit.
I have zero personal guilt for things that happened before I was born and/or I was not involved with. See? That was easy!
I think I’ll just reply that guilt and redemption are religious concepts – are you preaching some religion at me?

I’m starting to think that Joe Biden’s threat of imposing a mandate via OSHA was a much more clever move than I had previously thought.
Given that OSHA seems to have no real appetite for actually creating and implementing a rule mandating vaccines, Biden gets to pretend he did actually implement such a rule without having to worry about the Court striking down such a blatant violation of people’s rights.
Bonus points because the Deep State can monitor what companies are thinking right and implementing the mandate without actually waiting for OSHA. And put the wrong thinking companies on a list.
Probably not that far off. I do think Biden or his advisors and lawyers truly believe they could impose it, but saw no downside of trying it. Like you said, OSHA will have a list of companies that didn’t rush to impose their own mandates and OSHA will just have to assume they need to do deep dive inspections on a monthly basis for normal operating conditions.
Sweet, another list for me to be on.
I think the simple fact they did it through OSHA was so they could drag out the SCOTUS smackdown. Once this finally ends up being banned as unconstitutional, he will just give OSHA new marching orders for a mandate (not to be confused with two guys going out on a date), just like he did with the whole renters not paying rent fiasco. All he needs is to prolong this fight until after the 2022 election so they can use things like this to “fortify” that election as well…
Yup. A couple of us were talking about this the other day.
It’s genius. It will never actually be implemented or struck down as unconstitutional.
The declaration will just provide cover to all the company’s that want to do this.

Turns out that those Pandora papers proved that SoDak is a hive of villainy.
Behind a paywall, but here’s a decent pull:
Our own ex-Gov Mark Mumbles Dayton had a ton of those trusts set up in SoDak to keep his money so maybe it is true that the SoDaks are helping evil people.
Minnesodans are getting riled up to go to war with SoDak again?
The Twin Cities Proggies would have to fight their way through rural Minnesoda before their armored columns could attack Sioux Falls*. So I don’t think that the Jackrabbits are too worried.
* How long before the Sioux name is declared a slur and all those names are verbotten?

This weekend we went to the theater to see the 1930 versions of Dracula and Frankenstein. I really like that they do stuff like this. We’d never seen either of those. It’s amazing how far film has come, for better or worse.
Those are fantastic to see in the strip mall theaters that are dank and old. Really gives off the best atmosphere for them.

It increasingly looks like the point of the pretend “return to normalcy” is to show us we were wrong to have been disobedient and if we had just trusted them all along none of this would have happened.

The horror: “The fastest growing part of the population that’s infected are kids. They tend not to have symptoms,”
The reverend at the church we visited yesterday commented that his highest rate of absence was among millenials with kids.
They’ve been telling him that they’ll only come back when they can get their kids vaccinated.
And this is a conservative church.
I don’t know what today’s conservatives are conserving, exactly, and none of them seem to really know, either.
It feels like things are switched and nowadays conservatives are just the ones generally pushing back a little.
The problem with the pushback is there’s nothing that great about the recent past to go back to. The 1990s? That’s when Ladson-Billings wrote “Towards a critical race theory of education” and the Republicans blew their political capital on a half-assed impeachment of President “I get blowjobs from interns to distract from the organized crime syndicate my wife is building”. The 2000s? That’s when all those MIC-funded McMansions on the Potomac were built in NoVa and all good-thinking people voted for Obama because it would heal and transform the country. The 2010s? That’s when tech megacorps took over the U.S. economy and the dying media was rejuvenated by A-B testing, machine learning, and social engineering.
The future has to be something better than that, or else it won’t inspire anyone.
Secondary and tertiary effects of those vaccines are completely ignored in this analysis.
This is as stupid as disparate impact analysis. They’re using a single, solitary metric to evaluate the worth of the vaccines.
Not to mention that there is such a thing as having too many antibodies in your system. Your body typically stops producing antibodies when you no longer need them. It will ramp up production when it finds the need again.
It may not be a perfect system, but it is more perfect than outside immune system managers will ever come up with. Which is a far cry from giving your system a head start with non-mutating pathogens.
The current “immune system envy” craze is stupider than the “smart phone envy” craze that is slowly dying out.

The US is “turning the corner” on its current Covid-19 surge but vaccination remains key to ensuring cases continue trending downward ahead of the holiday season, Dr. Anthony Fauci said Sunday.
Go fuck yourself.
Many of the accounts were designed to evade taxes and conceal assets for other shady reasons, according to the report.
“Other shady reasons”. I guess some are. Tax evasion isn’t. Tax evasion is a good thing.
New services include check cashing, bill paying, ATM access, expanded and improved money orders and expanded wire transfers. Select Postal Service locations in Washington, D.C.; Falls Church, Virginia; Baltimore; and the Bronx, New York, are participating.

The complaints say Facebook’s own research shows that it amplifies hate, misinformation and political unrest—but the company hides what it knows. One complaint alleges that Facebook’s Instagram harms teenage girls. What makes Haugen’s complaints unprecedented is the trove of private Facebook research she took when she quit in May. The documents appeared first, last month, in the Wall Street Journal. But tonight, Frances Haugen is revealing her identity to explain why she became the Facebook whistleblower.
She’ll be held up as a hero unlike those that went to Project Veritas.
“Other shady reasons”. I guess some are. Tax evasion isn’t. Tax evasion is a good thing.
Tax evasion is illegal. Tax minimization is perfectly legal and should be encouraged.
Although, I can see the former getting more popular as the tax regime gets more punitive.
I was told once that the IRS expects you to take every single deduction you can possibly squeeze out. So I do.
I don’t give a shit about tax evasion’s illegality. Tax evasion is a good thing.

We’re rapidly approaching the seasonal cycle for the Northeast. I expect things will get dicey once it sets in.
I think we’ve found Covid is and not seasonally linked directly, though. It may increase due to travel patterns in late November like the cold though.
It’s linked behaviorally. When people have a tendency to cluster inside (cold in NE, hot in SE), you get spikes.
Yeah that’s what I mean.

“We know that masks work, we know that they decrease transmission and keep people safer,” Schacker said. “Why we’re having this debate I… couldn’t comment. I think (masking) is a tool that we have that’s very effective, that is not being used properly.”
He claimed, without evidence.
Turns out that the U.S. is full of overgrown children who are more comfortable going around in public with security blankets.
Pay no attention to the fifteen studies behind the curtain that say otherwise.
You mean 15 hundred.
And even if they WERE effective – at the claimed rate of effectiveness (90%) mathematics proves masking is useless after about 30 exposures. So even at a pace of 2 exposures per week and a mask change every hour – effectiveness is nil after three months.
