Pretty much sums this place up.
Okay, no tragedies, catastrophes, new plagues, or any other disaster popped up last night, so let’s see what we can scrounge up for this evening.
Ivermectin? Oh wait, there’s no money in that.
One more big clue on something that’s been known for some time. Saudi Arabia has the area fenced off, because Islam forbids idolatry. If Christians started flocking there, they would have to destroy the archeological findings in the area.
Time for Fourscore to step up his game.
Now I want ice cream.
“The FDA will look at the data and in their usual, very efficient and effective way, will examine the data as quickly as they possibly can, and then it will be taken from there,” Fauci said.
I didn’t know Fauci was also a comedian.
You can either laugh or cry at what he says. There isn’t much in between with that guy.
I thought he’d be mad at the FDA based on how they treated his precious booster shot.
Moo
Hey.
Do you guys remember when Fauci helped fund gain of function research in SARS viruses emanating from bats over in the Wuhan region that totalitarian ethnostate?
And then a little while later a SARS bat virus from Wuhan killed 700,000 Americans?
And then nothing else happened and it wasn’t even a major news story?
Good times man
That needs to be your bio.
BIBLICAL archaeologists have claimed to have located the holy mountain where the Bible says God gave Moses two stone tablets inscribed with the Ten Commandments.
Hmm…..
How exactly is Biblical different from actual Scientific analysis?
/I’m a Christian….
Eh, during the nineteenth & twentieth centuries, some biblical archaeologists started from the point of view that the Old Testament was literally true in all its descriptions. With that as their starting point, they sometimes made the mistake of reading such assumptions* into what they found and made errors. Part of the problem was that dating ancient sites was still a fairly new science. I can’t find anything online about this with a quick search. If I have time I’ll take another look.
*This is not to say that other archaeologists haven’t done the same thing,
Yusef, from the dead thread re: your crossbow photos:
There have been a number of ‘Biblical Archeologists’ that start with their or their denomination’s literal interpretation of the Bible and look for evidence that supports their preferred conclusion. This seems to be particularly common in some evangelical sects and the eternal lolcows that are the Young Earth Creationists.
I once discussed how the bible was proven true because they found chariots under the Red Sea.
Religious folks just wont accept that they have to prove their theories true or its not history or scientific fact. Its religious belief.
For some reason religious belief is not good enough for some religious folks. More power to religious folks if they can prove Jesus turned water into wine.
Someone who was trying to convert me once said, “But four separate people wrote accounts of Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection – why would four people just make something up??” I’m not anti-religion, but I’m anti-stupid arguments.
Honestly, I can understand why some people believe that there had to be a creation, some ultimate cause, some final “why” to why the universe exists. If you want to call that force God, I get it. And I don’t think that automatically makes you a stupid person. And I understand why someone might go with one religion over all others – maybe that’s just your way of connecting with and recognizing that ultimate creative force. I understand that. What I don’t get is how someone can deduce that one religion that arose in a particular time and place is the true one and all the others are phony.
Biblical archeologists are nothing more than archeologists trying to locate sites from the Bible.
“Existing regulations and public land protections are entirely inadequate to protect the American bumble bee from extinction. The states that have seen some of the largest declines of the American bumble bee within the past 20 years are the same states that have seen the largest quantified increase in pesticide use, including neonicotinoid insecticides and fungicides,” the petition states. “Public land presents little refuge from habitat loss and pesticides as only 4% of this species’ observations have been on public lands, and even there, they face ongoing threats such as herbicide use and competition and disease from honey bee apiaries.”
Oh boy. I can’t wait to see the new regulations.
The bees might actually be in danger of disappearing, but I just dont believe a single thing I read anymore.
I would actually put money on there being more bees around than ever before.
Yeah, they must be increasing…otherwise “bee infrastructure” would have been added to the $3.5 trillion ask.
Sounds right.
That was my exact thought.
Anecdotal evidence, I know, but the bumblebee population around these parts (northern NJ) hasn’t changed much since I moved here 20 years ago. We do have far more carpenter bees than bumblebees, but that’s always been the case.
Also, they couldn’t find a picture of an actual bumblebee for the article? That appears to be a honeybee. Nice jounalisming.
I saw the video on the news, the video shows honey bees, the Italian variety such as we use here in Fourscoreland but the discussion is about bumble bees, the big furry ones that you probably see in your gardens. The picture here is a honey bee. There is no shortage, unless the laws of supply and demand have been reversed.
We are paying about the same price, allowing for inflation, for the past 20 years, for honey bees. Ours are brought in from CA, after they have worked the almond/fruit orchards. Check the price of honey at your favorite store, up in price, yep, inflation, yep. Maple syrup and honey track each other fairly closely, labors costs are up, canning jars went extinct last year.
As far as bumble bees go, I have no idea but this year I saw lots of yellow jackets and hornets trying to rob the bee hives. I see a lot of yellow jackets competing with the honey bees in the remnants of our empty boxes, trying to cop a bit of remaining honey. I’m not surprised that as farming practices change that there may be fewer bumblebees observed
I wish the news people would not confuse honey bees with the other pollinators, of which there are many varieties. There is no shortage of either, AFAIK.
Another thing to point out is that honey bees are an invasive species here in North America.
Don’t point that out, the left will go nuts and try to ban the bee. And we don’t want that, know do we?
I once saw something called “Honey Product” at a dollar store. It was 10% honey, 90% corn syrup, imported from India. Price was a buck.
That’s what KFC and others give for “honey” now.
Yuck.
Yes. Popeyes too.
So much “honey” that is sold at supermarkets is heavily adulterated with cheaper substitutes that I just buy from a family-run grocery store that stocks local honey. It costs more, but it tastes a lot more like real honey.
I’ve noticed a definite uptick in wasps and hornets the last few years.
“Ice Cream Man” is a good song.
Very bluesy.
that’s how blues is done, no matter the tempo or style, Blues is what people resort to when they have never met and decided to jam,
Usually in A, God………
Yup and very timely too. I just scooped myself a bowl of ice cream.
It rained off and on up here, so I can’t play much, so Ice cream is on the menu,
Enjoy!
We’ve been dry all day today down here. I thought we would have some rain this afternoon.
Enjoy your ice cream Yu.
Europe’s space mission to the smallest and least explored terrestrial planet in our solar system, Mercury, sent back its first images of the planet after a flyby.
That picture is neat.
When my grandfather was at the South Pole, building McMurdo as part of Operation: Deep Freeze in the 1950s, he said they had to wait until it warmed to 50 below zero to safely work outside.
What exactly made 50 below “safe”?
That was the cut-off temp, below which one would die simply from going out of doors.
I was at this event.
I’ll write up what I saw later.
Looking forward to it.
Obviously the coldest season in the south pole was created by actual global warming. Thats just simple science people.
Nuclear testing=things get hot=early Global Warmening= Profit!
Well, yeah. All the heat got sucked up north by our wicked planet-hating ways.
When it gets hot, it’s climate change. When it gets cold, it’s climate change.
While I have nothing against the VH song, I am contractually obligated to link to this better song of the same name.

It’s a Saturday, and I’m home and upright. So, I’ll be kicking off the Zoom/Happy Hour/Geek Speak at 20:00 Eastern. Most likely sitting on my back patio with a nice fire going.
Sorry about last night, I had nothing good to say, same as tonight,
Enjoy!
Nothing to apologize for. The Irish farewell is fairly common amongst our kind.
For meads, you do have the option of picking up some B. Nektar ones, they should be available in your neck of the woods. They also do quite a few ciders.
Rain’s coming, may want to rethink the patio thing.
There’s a chance of rain, but it’s currently looking like it’ll hold off until later tonight. I’ve already picked up the requested s’mores items for the girlfriend.
It just came through here, looking at the radar you have about 45 minutes.
Radars lie. We make them display UFOs all the time
Damn it man. It started raining at about 20:15.
Nice. Considering a fire myself.
I’ll be on my patio, fire will be burning inside a tobacco-filled briar.
It’s still summer here in DC. 84 degrees tomorrow. Fuck this place!
I’m happy with anything under 90
Hoping to use hot tub tomorrow night.
I’m waiting for the first day with a high of 65 or lower. That’s when I cook my celebratory End of the Season of Hate meal (roast chicken breast, butternut soup, sourdough bread & butter)
I’m-a try to stay on late enough to brag about my 1/2 billion $ windfall at 10:59pm
Also considering a fire
FIRE GOOD!
Especially with some pork or other protein over it and then consumed.
I grilled a t-bone, a pork tenderloin, several bratwurst, 2 homemade polish sausages, burgers, and hotdogs.
I’m pretty well set for lunches this coming week.
I’m getting a propane stove to replace the wood burner downstairs. Both are look a-likes to a Vermont Casting, I still have a few years worth of wood in the shed but I’m not able to carry it in so easily. We’ll be using the gas furnace for central heat, we’ve burned wood almost exclusively for 30 years and I hate to change.
The calendar is merciless.
Yang says something not stupid.
He’s correct that something ain’t right when 5% to 10% of the voters have such complete control over the place, election after election. I dunno about the ranked-choice silliness but the closed primaries are bullshit.
Closed primaries are just fine. Parties should have the right to decide how their candidates are selected.
The problem is ballot access rules that make it impossible for anyone outside the two parties to get on the ballot.
Nobody needs more than two political parties.
I agree with Kinnath here. Ranked-choice voting schemes have been pretty shitty in CA, as you end up with everyone’s fifth choice, who generally sucks. DA of SF is a great example if I remember right. No, a serious debate is very important to have between the two parties. But of course, we never have that anymore, as the moderators are all on team spew.
I think Yang is an OK liberal, at least he is thinking outside the box, but this idea is bleah.
You remember correctly. We have Boudin here in SF because he got more second and third votes even though he had less first votes. Ranked choice is rank.
I pity you KSuell. As for everyone else in SF, enjoy your choice people. Elections have consequences I’m told.
Having said that, I bet he gets reelected.
Yeah, if you want to vote in the primary for a particular party, just register for that party.
I remember arguing about this with people back when CA started open primaries, about 30 years ago. The people supporting open primaries tended to be the “Voting is your civic duty! If you don’t vote you can’t complain!” types who registered as ‘independent’ because they considered themselves to be free thinkers not bound to a party, then got mad when they went to the polls on primary day and the people they saw in the TV commercials weren’t on their ballot.
Team Red and Team Blue are private parties. They should be able to decide how primaries are conducted.
I’ll believe they’re private parties when they stop accepting donations funneled to them via involuntarily-extracted public-sector union dues financed by the taxpayer.
*mic drop*
Why should people not belonging to a party be able to select that parties nominee? Shall we start extrapolating that?
And the vast majority of union donations go to Democrats, yet it’s the Democrats that howl the most about the lack of open primaries.
China is having some problems…
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/traffic-lights-gone-dark-factories-shut-down-what-caused-chinas-power-crisis/ar-AAP4299
Are these the hard times Xi referred to? Or just the start?
It’s the proof Xi needs to communism harder.
They just need to make power outages illegal, duh.
They need more orphans in the mines and plant more trees. Buy coal from Rocket Man, he doesn’t have any power problems, no one needs more than 1 light bulb and a long lamp cord.
China has also shuttered electric car factories, and they’re version of Lehman Brothers just missed an $80 billion payment. Chickens are coming home to roost, which doesn’t bode well for Taiwan, if the CCP feels they need to change the countries focus.
According to the article this is due to China being over reliant on coal fired power plants. Further down in the article, hydropower is way down and they closed a bunch of coal power plants. That’s some fine journalising Lou.
Further down coal prices have gone up but power companies can’t raise their prices so they stop producing to keep from losing money.
Yet more fine journalising.
Spud, if a guy wanted to send a special something to another guy that happens to be a restaurateur in a town in NY would you happen to have a name and address of said restaurant?

As long as those bumblebees don’t become Africanized. Seriously though, wasn’t there just a honeybee scare not but five years or so back? We would see an apocalypse as our bee friends perished and they could no longer pollinate our crops. I guess that never came to pass, thank god.
What’s your problem with African-American Bumblebees? Are you some kind of racist?
Maybe he was violated by Irwin Allen back in the day?
We have replaced Africanized bees with Murder hornets. They cut the heads off of bees to feed their kids.

Got this album playing – Barry Adamson’s Dreams of a life https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVtIBm2Njz8&list=OLAK5uy_lU5oB-QjzE0e_4Gop-yxoP_isehgyBN64&ab_channel=BarryAdamson-Topic
Got some decent beer, wife is taking a nap at 7:15 at night, just chilling.
Nice, I’ll put that on the music to play queue. This is my favorite Adamson tune. Heavily tongue in cheek tribute to another Barry.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiyMYkI44Sg
Adamson is a lot of fun, from The Negro Inside Me to Set Controls For The Heart Of The Pelvis, his work is uniformly excellent. Plus, being one of the original Bad Seeds and a member of Magazine gives someone serious cred.
Ochsner health system is charging employees $100 per pay cycle for spouses or domestic partners that are unvaccinated. Reason… additional costs from unvaccinated using medical services.
I for one thank the commies in business pushing their unscientific nonsense to get people off employee health plans and go for private health plans.
This and parents sending kids to private schooling will be the greatest consequences of democrat tyranny.
Mine is doing this. The surcharge is still cheaper than buying on the open market.
Fools are loving that those deplorables get charged more, without realizing this is just the nose of the camel.
I would advocate that y’all check private insurance rates and pay cash for minor doctor visits. If you are only going to the doctor for annual physicals, paying more than $400 seems high for most locations.
Catastrophic insurance can easily cost less than $2400 per year unless you are in your 40s+.
Once you factor in your employee contributions, deductibles, and this surcharge nonemployee healthcare insurance might make financial sense.
I’m guessing no consideration for natural immunity.
The country has lost its damn mind.

Good morning. I’m waiting for 7am to roll around so I can mow the yard before the predicted week of rain begins.
Oh, you’re THAT asshole running the mower/weed eater/leaf blower at this wretched hour. And on a Sunday.
Now that I work overnights, Im that guy, too.
Yes, indeed. I just want to accomplish all of my day’s chorin’ before 10 or 11, that I may sleep until I have to go to work. Honestly, if it were my choice, I would let the yard grow wild, like nature intended; I’m an advocate of xeriscaping. Our HOA, not so much. They have a busybody lady who patrols the neighborhood with her camera and they are quick to send out nastygrams and fines to the landlord.
My HOA is professionally managed by a management company. Is that what makes them not assholes? Or is that common? I’ve only ever been involved with this one and they’re not Nazis.
Oh, and it’s on the HOA to manage the grounds here.
My mom used to manage several HOA’s when she owned a property management company. Basically, whatever the letter of the contracts said was what was enforced. If there was a busy body running around, and I can guarantee there was considering the general area, as long as you stayed in that parameter you were ok.
Good morning, homey, l0, Suthen, and NA! Jeeminy criminy, it’s downright WARM at TB this morning! My hoodie is almost too heavy to wear right now. Local weather powerhouse TV station’s app says it’s 68 degrees ‘Mercan. Just now starting to rain lightly.

One of the few pieces of evidence that Jews are God’s chosen people is corned beef. And while the Hiberno-semitic alliance produces ugly people, it did give us corned beef has which is so delicious for breakfast that I have to restrict my intake. But today was a good morning.
Now to decide how early is too early to take Lily to the park.
You are a stronger-willed man than I. I will eat a whole brisket without realizing I have done so.
The trick is to wrap and remove the bulk of the brisket immediately after cooking. Otherwise like you, I will “just one more piece” the entire thing. It’s worse than Pringles.

Supposed to be 70* and overcast here in the OR, a decent day to mow up the leaves out front, before it drops to the low sixties all next week, and then the rain starts.

“We’ve lost 700,000 Americans now and fully 200,000 of those folks have died since vaccines have been available almost to everyone in this country, and every one of those deaths is unnecessary. So even though the news is great for this antiviral agent, really the message that people need to receive is ‘get vaccinated.’ No one needs to die from this virus,” he said.
Define “unnecessary”.
“No one needs to die from this virus.”
Really? Stop pretending to be God, you cunte.
No matter what happens the answer is vaccinations up to and including impending hurricanes. It’s basically just a mantra at this point.

President Biden urged the public to get vaccinated on Saturday in a statement acknowledging the United States has surpassed 700,000 deaths related to COVID-19.
“To heal we must remember, and as our nation mourns the painful milestone of 700,000 American deaths due to COVID-19, we must not become numb to the sorrow,” Biden said in a statement released by the White House Saturday afternoon.
“On this day, and every day, we remember all those we have lost to this pandemic and we pray for their loved ones left behind who are missing a piece of their soul,” he continued.
Go back to sleep, Gramps.
“Missing a piece of their soul”. Unlike you, they still have some remaining, Joe.

Arizona, once dominated by Republicans, is an increasingly competitive state that voted to elect a Democratic president and two Democratic senators in the last three years. Some party organizers in Arizona fear that if Sinema shrinks or sinks the reconciliation package, it could demoralize the party base and hurt her colleague, Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., in his 2022 re-election bid.
“I don’t have any sense of what the hell she’s doing,” said one Democratic operative based in Arizona who supported her 2018 campaign and asked to remain anonymous for fear of retribution.
“She’s pissing off all the activists,” the operative said. “If this fails, there is going to be anger like I’ve never seen before.”
Oh, no. A wave of impotent childish temper tantrums from the “activists”. How will the nation survive?
The GOP has RINOs who are nonRepublicans who say they are Republicans. Many times they are Democrats who cannot get elected as democrats or want to sabotage the GOP.
