For those that can’t rock the Tweeters, the guy has a sign that has “I Like Dave” on it, a protestor breaks off his sign and rips it up. Then, while holding the broken-off stick that was once his sign, a few of them yell “HE’S GOT A WEAPON!” (the protest version of SWATting) and make him drop it. When he tries to yell over them–a very anodyne “JOKES ARE FUNNY!”–a short something or other starts shaking a tambourine in his face and they all scream to drown him out.
And, now covered in glory, they will retreat to their hobbit holes, eat two dinners, and dream about the mighty dragon they have slain.
‘F*CK Joe Biden’ Chant Drowns Fox ALCS Postgame Show One Day After They Muted ‘F*CK YOU A-Rod’
Despite being forced to mute most of their ALCS postgame show Monday night because of impassioned and unruly Red Sox fans, Fox kept their studio crew outside of Fenway Park Tuesday night.
The crowd was back at it with profane chants, but this time, Fox was less heavy-handed with the mute button. After attempting to block out as many “F*CK YOU A-ROD” and “F*CK ALTUVE” chants as they could on Monday, Fox allowed shouts of “F*CK Joe Biden” to enter the broadcast 24-hours later.
At one point during the broadcast, the at-home audience was able to hear four consecutive profane anti-Biden chants without disruption from the mute button. As for A-Rod, he still had to deal with chants of “Yankees Suck,” and “J-Lo,” to mercilessly mock his heartbreak after getting dumped by Jennifer Lopez.
While Red Sox fans joined the accrescent “f*ck Joe Biden” chants at sporting events, they depicted much more support for the current president one-year ago. Biden dominated Trump in Beantown, garnering 65 percent of the votes in Massachusetts and 80 percent in Suffolk County, where Boston sits.
It must have been such an ordeal for this writer, this tenderest of souls, to live through such a nightmare. I hope he gets therapy for his PTSD.
While Red Sox fans joined the accrescent “f*ck Joe Biden”
I will give him a point for “accrescent” (growing, blooming as in a flower.) You really got your 100K in college loan debt worth on that word.
The Guardian tells us that the Babylonian clay tablet in question has been hanging out in the British Museum’s vast stores of ill-gotten imperial plunder. Its exact significance went overlooked until the ghost drawing was noticed by the Museum’s Middle Eastern department curator and cuneiform expert, Dr. Irving Finkel.
The tablet shows “a lonely bearded spirit being led into the afterlife and eternal bliss by a lover” and comes from a 3,500-year-old Babylonian “exorcist’s guide to getting rid of unwanted ghosts by addressing the particular malaise that brought them back to the world of the living.”
Though it’s hard to make out without the overlaid outline, the tablet’s ghost is depicted with his wrists bound, being led by a woman. The tablet includes text which “details a ritual that would dispatch [the ghost] happily to the underworld.”
“It’s obviously a male ghost and he’s miserable,” Dr. Finkel said. “You can imagine a tall, thin, bearded ghost hanging about the house did get on people’s nerves.”
The solution to this spectral problem, Dr. Finkel states, is an “explicit message” on the tablet, showing “that what this ghost needed was a lover.”
The back of the tablet includes a detailed instruction manual for the ritual used to get rid of the ghost, which required making “figurines of a man and a woman” that, along with other special steps involving beer, juniper, and doll clothes, are put in the right position during sunrise while the name of a god is called out. It’s not the most elaborate way to help get someone laid we’ve ever heard of, but it’s certainly up there.

Except he literally did a whole bit on supporting his trans friend. Fire these petulant cuntes.
Get rid of your weapon and repent mother fucker!
They could be celebrating the first four star female admiral instead.
Nope, the trannies run NetflixTown now.
Sorry, Dave, that’s like a white person protesting that they have black friends.
“And, now covered in glory, they will retreat to their hobbit holes, eat two dinners, and dream about the mighty dragon they have slain.”
That’s kind of insulting to hobbits.
Side note — have we seen Bearded Hobbit lately? I may have missed the post(s) but feel like it’s been a while.
I’m mostly lurking. Generally by the time I get around to the article it is too late for comments.
Glad you’re still with us. I’ll try to hone my noticing skills 😉
It’s never too late, even for duplicates.
Yep. He’s been around.
Short, ineffecual, fat, and whiny–sounds like most hobbits to me.
They seemed generally content and peaceful in the Tolkien books.
I’ve got short and fat covered, working on the rest.
That, and the hairy feet.
Looks like he’s peeing.
I read “The streaming giant” and thought they might have cut off “The steaming giant turd”.
“Biden dominated Trump in Beantown, garnering 65 percent of the votes in Massachusetts and 80 percent in Suffolk County, where Boston sits.”
I’m thinking baseball fans are more blue-collar than Team Blue.
*Pivots in TV studio chair*
“Okay, let’s bring in Nate Silver to break down the polling numbers for a location where a baseball game happens to be taking place.”
I’m thinking baseball fans are more blue-collar than Team Blue.
I would posit that the Team Blue types (not just in Beantown, but nearly every city big enough to have an NFL or MLB franchise) fall into two camps:
— no way can they afford tickets, especially to playoff games, or
— no way would they deign to pay attention to “sportsball.”
So either unemployed or elitist?
Useless either way, amirite?
There are lots of young people in the stands at Fenway Park. And they seem to be following the game. At least that’s how it looks on TV.
And since Suffolk County is like 90% the city of Boston, that figure is completely irrelevant unless you assume that nobody from the many suburbs that are not in Suffolk County attends baseball games at Fenway.
Alternative explanation: they did vote for Biden but have soured on him.
(real explanation: most of the people chanting didn’t vote at all)
The solution to this spectral problem, Dr. Finkel states, is an “explicit message” on the tablet, showing “that what this ghost needed was a lover.”
The Re-boot of the Exorcist has taken a rather interesting turn.
I heard they had a hard time licensing “meatspin” for the climactic scene.
A sexorcism?
I think I saw that movie, on Cinemax, back in the day.
They will be hearing from my attorney shortly. Royalties and residuals, you know

“This is my message to mayors. This is my message to CEOs in the private sector: It’s a very fair point now to say it’s time. All the voluntary opportunities have been exhausted. Now it’s time for mandates. And what we found is when people are really staring at a mandate, and it’s come to work, get paid, or don’t come to work, don’t get paid, the vast majority choose to get vaccinated and move forward,” he concluded.
NYers need to tell this tyrannical a-hole to fuck the hell off.
And what we found is when people are really staring at a gulag the vast majority choose to submit,” he concluded. FIFY
The threat of a bullet to the back of the head will override many inhibitions.
That’s a two way street.
“and move forward”
Or they do what they feel they have to do and resent the fuck out of it the rest of their lives along with all that entails.
Once you force someone to do something against their will, there are usually no hard feelings and nothing but good will.
As Dave Ramsey always says:. “those convinced against their will are of the same opinion still”.
They’re really twisting the knife. The non-compliant will not be fired, merely put on unpaid leave. That way they cannot collect unemployment. This will not end well.
Definitely not about punishing wrongthink.
Fuck you should be said by all of them.
SF you picked my absolute favorite Iggy pop song and a great cover of it. I heard the cover first then learned about the original and became a fan of Iggy Pop.

I’d tread lightly if I were one of those Netflix protesters…
Oh shoot! I forgot! I’m completely useless, helpless, and unemployable!
Could you imagine having people like that as coworkers? You’d have to watch everything you said all of the time. It’d be hell.
Let’s see here… Where did the staple remover go. Ah yes, here it is.
“He’s got a weapon!”
You have to make PacMan sounds as you lunge at them with it.
Demoralizing too.
These people hate the company, why are they still here?
Could you imagine having people like that as coworkers?
Yes. I don’t participate in any conversations not directly related to performance of my job.
Yup, no need for imagination in the wonderful world of advertising.
Welcome to my life.
I wonder how many of them actually work for Netflix.
A few years back I was stuck on a nine-month project with a hyper-sensitive “woke” nitwit.
About a year after that ended, I was team lead on another project that was staffing up. The staffing agency called and asked if I’d be willing to work with the hyper-sensitive nitwit again. I knew the recruiter and her sense of humor very well, and therefore delighted in informing her that I would sooner have my tongue stapled to a wagon wheel than to work with the hyper-sensitive nitwit.
The recruiter lol’d. I lol’d. The nitwit wasn’t brought on board.
Nice to see that dozens of employees protesting at one company gets full media coverage, and hundreds protesting at another company gets crickets.

Whew….I have been trying to think…now what else is Trashy trying to get us use!
I thought it was a typo for Q’s alternative to twitter.
And so TITER entered into the vocabulary on that day, October 20, 2021 as a way to describe any useless news organization.
Bravo and now will be used!
The “wokeists” superpower as I said in the previous thread is projecting this false sense of power which is helped by the corporate media and social media. But in reality, they have no power outside of their enclaves (social media) and once enough people become aware of that, their mirage of power slowly disappears. Think about JK Rowling and Dave Chappelle. Despite being targeted by these assholes, they still have a huge fanbase who won’t ever stop listening to Chappelle’s stand up or stop buying Rowling’s books. It helps to have fuck you money but if you either ignore them or fight back, their power goes away.
I’d like a second opinion.
She was a frequent guest on The Oprah Winfrey Show — an Ivy League-educated OB-GYN who often spoke about women’s health and holistic medicine. …
But Northrup also uses her Facebook page to direct followers to Telegram, where another side of her is apparent. Here, on this platform with lax moderation, lies a miasma of misinformation and conspiracy theories.
“Best Explanation I’ve Seen About Why the Covid Jabs Are Killer Shots,” reads one post that she shared.
“Me realising I don’t have to take revenge on my enemies as they’ve all had the jab,” says a meme she posted in late August that shows a sly-faced Morticia from the Addams Family.
“Another hero emerges,” Northrup writes of a doctor who refused to see vaccinated patients.
Northrup is among a small group of doctors who have emerged as a huge source of misinformation — whether as social-media influencers or family doctors meeting with patients in person — about Covid-19 vaccines, which have thus far proven the most effective weapon against the deadliest pandemic in 100 years.
Let us proceed, Brandon!

I’ve got a copy of Michael B. Collins’ Across Atlantic Ice: The Origin of America’s Clovis Culture, in which he makes a case for the Clovis culture having crossed over during the last glaciation, possibly in light watercraft skirting the edge of the ice sheet hunting marine mammals.
It’s an interesting read. Not sure if I’m 100% convinced but he makes a good case.
Will have to check it out.

To be fair, I often feel that way. Well, mostly just the alcohol part.
To be fair, I also need guns. But I really don’t want to shoot or hurt anyone. I just need them, OK.
She was plotting 3 years ahead? Or was this written by a precog?
She has to get the right outfit, get her nails done, get her hair did, do her makeup…

She’d have to wait until 2027 for the alcohol.

Tacit — understood or implied without being stated.

That’s right, we need more people joining unions so they can work together to fight vax mandates. You tell ’em Kamala!
Notorious right-wing bigot FDR was opposed to public employee unions as well.
Of course he was, he was a textbook fascist.
They are a cancer in Illinois. Towns and municipalities have to cut back on essential services because of an amendment in our state constitution stating that the public sector retirement funds have to get it’s taste before anything else is funded and the contracts or benefits can’t be altered. They know that towns are dying and that people have to pay higher property taxes because of their inflexibility but don’t give a fuck because, “Pensions are a promise,” and anything that takes away their power must be strangled immediately.

Another country life revelation: I can blast this without offending neighbors
https://youtu.be/LvaILIaqHqo
Sorry to go OT, but I wanted to get some thoughts on a musing (too short for a submission):
They’re Bullies, Not Snowflakes
It’s always best to assume that those you disagree with are operating in good faith. But, it’s irrationality to ignore the evidence that, in fact, they aren’t acting in good faith. The social justice warriors claim that they’re offended, triggered or hurt by differing opinions. And normal people call them “snowflakes” in response. I get it. Someone would have to be insanely sensitive to react the way they do to many things. But, the evidence suggests that, in fact, they’re not acting in good faith. They routinely espouse a desire to inflict violence on their designated “out-group”. They show no compunction about offending non-SJWs. They use the politics of mob destruction as a tool for their own ends. Nothing in those behaviors suggests heightened sensitivity, aversion to confrontation or a demand for mutual respect. Nothing in those behaviors suggests they’re acting in good faith.
And if they’re not acting in good faith, the best descriptor of their behavior would be “bully”. When we think of bullies, we normally think of a big, tough guy using his superior size and strength to intimidate or just plain coerce others into submission. And that certainly describes a lot of bullies. Especially male bullies. But, the experts on bullying identify an alternate sort of bullying, one more commonly practiced by women. It’s that of the “mean girl”, the woman who uses superior social skills to manipulate social hierarchies to exclude or dismiss others. It’s the catty bit*h spreading rumors that another girl is “a total whore”. It’s the manipulator who tries to get men interested in her so she can publicly reject and humiliate them.
And this behavior matches that of the social justice warrior to a tee. Social justice warriors thrive in environments – academia, media, bureaucracy – that have developed a “victimhood culture” (as opposed to honor or dignity culture). In that milieu, being offended or hurt or terrorized, being the victim, has cultural currency and supports one’s position in the social hierarchy. But, it’s also an environment ideally suited to the aforementioned bullying. The hierarchy is defined by who you are, rather than what you do. And the social bully, the crybully, is able to assert both their dominance and their position in the hierarchy through their bullying.
“The social justice warriors claim that they’re offended, triggered or hurt by differing opinions. ”
They are mostly pretending to be offended.
Or the one that bugs me, being offended on behalf of other people. Who are usually not offended themselves.
That’s how we got the Washington Football Team.
If I was the owner I would agree to change the name to “Washington Savages” in order to drive the point home.
ISTR native americans polled as somewhere between “we like the name” and “we don’t give a shit”
And large crowds of mostly white people breaking shit at BLM rallies.
And, now it doesn’t matter what they eventually name it. It will always be Football Team to me.
Yes, crybully has always been more apt than snowflake. They seek power via victimhood.
Pretty spot on W.
There’s a reason that SJWs resort to Twittermobbing and the like.
They’re pretty ineffective dealing with their enemies one-on-one.

Yikes! Could all of this just be due to covid?
None of this is due to covid.
And it’s all part of the plan.
A good part of it is due to the government enforced shutdowns. We will be paying for it for decades to come.
Not entirely. There was an underlying bubble that hasn’t been popped for a while. Covid and covid reactions/overreactions are the bale of straw that broke the camel’s back.
I’m glad we defeated fascism in the last election.
On Thursday afternoon, September 30th, at 3:45 PM Eastern the FBI raided Jeremy Brown’s home and arrested Jeremy. The charge is trespassing. We were notified this morning by his family and an attorney. …
Jeremy Brown NEVER entered the US Capitol on January 6. His crime was in reality refusing to be an FBI informant as we describe below.
The FBI sent 20 vehicles for his arrest. DHS and Pinellas County law enforcement were also present. The FBI was in Jeremy’s home for 5-and-a-half hours looking for evidence. We were told the FBI did not read Jeremy his rights.
What rights?
Fuck man, we’re heading towards something terrible.

Now with 100% more link.
I assume they don’t have a veto-proof majority support.
Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer vetoed two Republican-backed election bills, arguing they “fail to advance” secure elections.
“How do we provide safe and secure elections in our state if the governor can’t even agree that we should be ensuring dead people aren’t on our voting rolls?” a sponsor of one the bills, Republican state Sen. Michael MacDonald, said in a statement following Whitmer’s vetoes on Friday.
One of the vetoed bills would have revised the administrative process for removing dead people from voter lists and required more frequent checks during the 45-day period before an election.
The bill passed through the state Senate and House with bipartisan support, and some clerks said the change would be welcomed. …
Whitmer argued the measure added “burdensome requirements that would distract from core election administration responsibilities.”
“Every citizen of Michigan has the constitutionally-guaranteed right to vote and deserves to exercise that right in safe and secure elections,” Whitmer wrote in a letter explaining her vetoes on Friday. “Enrolled Senate Bills 277 and 280 are the latest in a series of election bills arriving on my desk that fail to advance those goals.”
“Instead, these bills would divert key resources away from ensuring that every qualified Michigan resident can cast a secure ballot in our elections.”
Core election administration responsibilities such as

Last week a major defense industry contractor in the area had a small anti-vaccine mandate protest just off the yard This week, today through Friday, employees of that contractor, plus two more massive contractors, are protesting just off the yard.

Yesterday, the entire contractor workforce here threatened to walk out, halting production. It was averted one hour before the deadline.
“halting production”
Pfffft. Nobody needs to be making things. We’re fine. We have enough stuff.
Those are just wreckers. The state will deal with them appropriately.

What I accomplished today before lunch:
-Maul wood (yeah, baby! YEAH!!)
-Bring wood in house
-Warsh dishes
-Put dishes away
-Take out trash
-Set up fireplace for tonight
-Set up grill/chimney starter for dinner
-Prep food for dinner (slice tomaters & onions, make burger patties)
Oh, and my regular 9-hour workday
IFL it here.
Also, clean ash out of fireplace
Warsh? LOL, that’s the one non-standard pronunciation I “inherited” from my Dad.
Did you warsh your truck in the crick?
I will argue that a crick is not the same as a creek
Patrick McManus said it best:
Thanks for that! We used crick on the uncles farm in Idaho. Cali kids thought I couldn’t pronounce creek. So fuck them all right in their asses!
LOL, that is great Animal.
Sounds about right. Growing up in suburban Philly, the meandering stream behind our house was the crick. The big stream where we went fishing and skinning dipping was the creek.
When out of the night which was fifty below
and into the din and the glare,
There stumbled a miner, fresh from the crick*,
dog-dirty, and loaded for bear
*the way my grandfather always pronounced it when he performed that story for us
It was “crick” where I grew up, even for the ones the cows couldn’t get at.
A creek can be a crick but a crick will never be a creek. And after reading what Animal posted, I am thinking my uncle was a fan of Mr. McManus.
I have a very neutral American accent IRL, so I try to spice it up in my writing
Remember to use “fixin’ to” as well.
Example:
“I’m fixin’ to go to the store and get food.”
To fetch some grub fur supper?
You Betcha!
OK then, let’s get a heapin helpin and dig in.
Oh, and tall cans, of course, always tall cans.

There are lots of great rural terms that many more “sophisticated” folks don’t know about. LIke “namaste.”
“Are you coming along?”
“Namaste rightchear.”
Hrm. There’s probably an Allamakee County story in there somewheres.
You Northerners is just weird. Y’all ain’t got no fetchins up or somethin.
I actually say “fetch” all the time. Also “yonder,” “reckon” and “fixin’ to.”
I actually say “fetch” all the time. Also “yonder,” “reckon” and “fixin’ to.”
Where I’m from, it’s “git,” “thataway,” “figger” and “gonna.”
…or “coming with”.
Do it the NOLA way and “wrench them dishes in the zink, then go outside and open all y’all’s ersters on the banquette.”

Not very long at all after I said it, just today, it starts:
Vikings beat Columbus by…
Now stay tuned, because now begins the all out campaign to make the Vikings that champions of Wokeness.
Like I said, sounds like a job for Marvel.
I was assuming this means we have to hate Scandis now.
I don’t think we can, because they love socialism. Says the wokesters. Well, I mean at least they have free healthcare for only 60% of their income.
On the other hand, they have low corporate taxes and school choice. At least the Swedes do anyway.
The wokesters will abandon the Scandis in the wake of their ending all ‘Vid restrictions
Yep..they swung from Scandis are the greatest on Jan 2020 to they are killing grandmas on March 2020.
I was watching the Svalbard lady on Youtubes today, and NO ONE had a mask anywhere. People just coming & going normally, in the in Post Office, cafe, grocery store, etc. It looked glorious. Plus all the guns.

Yep. Loves me some Svalbard lass.
You get her, and I get her boyfriend, when they inevitably break up.
Also, Thor was a transgender Otherkin Furry.
Back when I read those semi-woke lists sites because I didn’t know any better, I read an article on “7 Things You Didn’t Know About the Vikings”. I think t was was grunge.com. Anyway one of the things was “They were the first feminists, allowing women to be warriors, captains, and other positions of power”.
I guarantee, like you said, we will be hearing this crap again, very soon. Surprised they didn’t roll it out in time for Columbus Day.
Yep dragging out known history as newly discovered to fit their needs.

Fuck Joe Biden

You read the articles?
Nobody reads the articles. What, you thought this was Playboy?
I’m just trying to figure out why Vlad Putin is in the 2nd video link.
An INSANELY proggie friend of mine and her proggie limey husband live in Portland (the OR kind, not the ME kind). This Facedump post made me LOL.

It’s OK to smugly wish all those unintended consequences on everyone else, because it will never come back on them. Idiots. No wonder the old school lefties like Mayer are freaking out and speaking out against wokeness. Create a monster, it gets out of controls and eats you? Wow, no one ever expected that.
Not only eating their own, but now eating themselves. Ewww!!!
Got a note once that our son dropped his draws on a dare at recess. We yelled at him and that was the end of it.
My 17 year old son streaked bare ass down the hall in school, about 3-4 days before graduation. Of course I got a phone call at work (40 miles away) to immediately come home. Any way to make a long story short, the principal and superintendent called me in their office, closed the door.
“Mr Fourscore, Junior will graduate with his classmates, we don’t want him back” He got suspended, could not participate in graduation and ended up the folk hero of the class. I’m betting they still talk about that today a that school, 40 years later.
Don’t look Ethel.
“But it was too late. She’d already been mooned.”
Junior year of high school we had a group presentation on the 60s in AP US History. We lit oregano leaves before the presentation to make the room smell like pot. One dude was naked on top of the file cabinet strumming a guitar. Another couple of guys came in wearing nothing but fig leaves like they were streakers at Woodstock. No parents were called. We got an A.
Sounds like a lovely family.
I’m pretty sure most 9 year olds know that whipping their dicks out in public is frowned upon. Guess your semi-feral spawn didn’t get the memo.
lol, I think you nailed it.
Name a better duo

Adam “RussiaGate Impeach Now” Schiff? Really?
How’d they edit out the bug eyes?
Didn’t recognize him. The other one, I eventually figured out was Paris Hilton, but it took a while.
Here’s your sign
Harsh, but fair.
I do. One’s a shameless, dirty whore. The other one’s Paris Hilton.
Here you go.
That might be better than Straffs….I love this place for finding these
I’m still traumatized from the Biden/Clinton one from earlier. I haven’t been able to eat all day, and I’ll probably have nightmares tonight, if I sleep at all.
That image will creep into your mind in the place between awake and sleep, making it all too real

Crazy times at the WNBA champions’ parade.

Let’s try that again.

LOL. All my woke friends were doing their ,”Go Girl!,” shit when the Sky won the championships but I bet you none them actually made the trip to Downtown Chicago to watch the “parade”.
Until your reply, I had no idea what city that was.
They also play in my alma mater’s basketball arena.
Hey, would you dare going downtown Chicago while Jesse Smollett’s white supremacist attackers are still on the loose?
Oh man, OK, I mock the WNBA as mercilessly as anyone, but seeing that there, well that just makes me sad. On women’s basketball, I think I’ll emulate the Buddha and maintain a “dignified silence”, from here on out.
It’s Halloween season and people are afraid Beetlejuice will show up.
Psalm 88:6-10
Back from our trip and back to Psalm of the day.
Kind of grim, trashy, Just Say’n,
I was doing some reading ahead and found a happier one
Psalm 91:2-10
They found a body near Laundrie’s belongings that were found earlier today. Not a surprise.
This sounds good to me, I’m going deaf,

I’m saving my hearing aids until there is something worth hearing.
That’s . . . incredibly wise. I wish one of my elder brothers had the same attitude.
I’ve had a few elder family members who were notorious for flipping the hearing aids off when the conversation didn’t interest them.

OTC was already being sold directly to the consumer by Bose, no prescription required. But of course now the Fed sticks their fat ugly corrupt nose into it.
I really dislike In N Out’s overhyped “burgers” but I think I’m going to drive over and have lunch there tomorrow.
Double double w/cheese, grilled onions animal style…only way to eat em
YayA!
It was never their food that impressed me…it was speed and cleanliness that did and strict standards for their employees and presentation.
Made teens gain a bit of pride in their work.
Ours out in W. Covina would get three high-school through lunch hour and still be spotless.
I ate there many times, ha!
As in West Covina, I like constistency, they have it, as does Mc D’s and Walmart,
I might be crazy, besides the point, but I swear the best burger joint around here is Smashburger, I love those things.
I prefer Freddy’s Steakburgers over Smashburger. I guess it all depends on what I am looking for. Pub style, smash, or fast food patty
Re the morning link about Texas congressional district reapportionment, and the bitching by Democrats about how the proposed map would go from one black majority district to zero – you’d think by those “lies, damn lies, and statistics” that there is only one black Texas congressperson, soon to be none.
Except, look at the pictures of the actual congressional delegates – looks like five or so black members from TX. It’s almost as if people don’t vote based solely upon ethnicity, because we’re not all racists.
So today I got a call, Nick #16 and josiah #11 talked me into playing the Labrynth, our favorite big course, and said they would help me if I ran into trouble with my back. Nick was ripping it, pars and birdies, one Double bogie after twelve, I made a huge mess of things, shooting plus 12 after telve, not good, then came the back twelve.
Nick was plus1, Jo at plus six, and I was back at plus twelve, then I turned it on, we headed into the forest, I play trees well.
I shot par, par, par, par par, one Birdie and one double bogey, to finish at plus 13, a good recovery. Nick and Jo had a hella back round, so much that I had the Teeebox the whole time, Bogeys and worse, Nick finished +6, Jo +11 and me at +13.
a great day, we had a blast, everyone should play!
Got primer today at a paint store in another town. Last single gallon on the shelf there. Hopefully zwak isn’t going to need one for a while.
Now to put it on the walls..
I haven’t noticed much shortage around here until today, I need some electrical boxes and Home Depot was damn near out of the nail-on plastic ones. I ended up jerry-rigging (can we still say that) some metal boxes and those heavier molded exterior ones to get the job done, but I only need a couple, It’d suck if you were roughing in a big job.
Well, vaccine mandate just hit my inbox. I have until Dec 8th to get mandated, and until Nov 15th to submit my religious exemption.
It’s go time!
Good luck – I trust all your hard work on the exception documentation will pay off.
DOJ lawyer already made clear they are fighting against them. Americans aren’t really serious. I saved that article for my appeal if they deny me
get *vaccinated
Looks like we all will be in the same bread lines!
No kidding, the Glibs are UNCLEAN!!!!
#PureBlood
I’ll buy bread for the unclean, for a small upcharge of course.
I’m waiting for the first delivery service state they only deliver to vaccinated households
Prepping pays off,

Cinnamon sticks and Curry? Crazy? or trade goods.
Hey, looks like a great time to go keto, right Glibfitters?
You know, except for that “quadruple the price of beef” thing.
Godpeed. I’m waiting for the mandate at my office as well. I got the spiel on Friday that “we’re a Federal contractor, it’s required for all, yada yada yada”. But, they are dragging their feet on it and I can tell. Guess we’ll see where it goes.
Love “The Passenger.”
As far as the Babylonian ghost drawing goes, I don’t see that it shows him as “horny”; I guess that’s exposed in the text?
Yeah they weren’t very explicit about it.
Since I bought apples while visiting apple country, I am having duck breast with apples and braised cabbage. Yum!
That sounds wonderful. I just picked up some fresh okra and andouille hoping for gumbo Friday.
I love okra. Do not put sausage in my gumbo.
Just made my first big pot of Chili for the fall. Lasted less than 3 days. It’s more addicting than crack I think. It’s the cumin, must be.
Well if you aren’t cumin it, you need to add beans to make up for protein loss
I always use beans. Pinto beans of course. Putting other beans, especially fucking kidney beans in Chili is blasphemy. That ain’t Chili.
“It’s the cumin”
That’s what your wife said.

So two separate processes in their creation and it will be fine. Why do I think we will see an equivalent miniseries called CovidSick in the future?
Which by the way, really yelling at the TV while watching DopeSick
Translation: You will jab whatever is handy at the increasingly frequent interludes we demand or else.
Will Americans finally start seeing through this farce?
What is amazing is they supposedly already ordered some 30 million for the chillins….so, why the mix match? Yeah, it’s almost like throw everything at it to give an appearance we are make a stance at the Battle of the Bulge against covid
Once they start pricking kids, I think it’s going to be game on. You just know some prog haven is going to prick the kids against the parents consent in school.

Going to the West Vaginer this weekend. Gonna hang out and see what’s wild and wonderful. I mean besides me. That’s a given, because I’ll be there.
If you’re coming up Friday night, and you’ll be near Berkeley Springs, hit me up. I’ll be here til Sat morning
I’ll be staying in Martinsburg. I love the Berkeley Spring area. I’ve looked a a few properties over there, but they didn’t have internet and as far as I know, Starlink is still not reliable enough.
I’m not sure if I’ll be over there. It’s more of a virgin expedition for us to get familiar with Berkeley county.
I’m not sure these muscle relaxers I just took are that good, as what the others were, It’s a different brand. Hmm, I better hold off before taking another one. I still remember that scene in Wolf of Wall Street. Definitely do not want to cash the copter on the lawn at 3am. My wife gets overly pissy about stuff like that.
“cash the copter on the lawn at 3am” you sound quite buzzed,
/9 beers in,
I don’t want to discuss my day with you…am I being detained
I’m stealing that…
Never seen pot bros? NSFW language

Well, he ain’t wrong.
Here’s ten dollars, now, Fuck Off….
/Depp
You can actually do that in Brazil. Only it’s going be more than ten dollars and you can’t actually say the fuck off part without blowing the entire deal.
For any who are interested, I will host the Wednesday Zoom starting at 8pm eastern.
https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89294027164?pwd=cHRHbURuME4wdGY2Q0lGVUV4QTJ2UT09
Imma get my shit together and start joining these Zooms sometime soon. Right now all my work and surfing is being done on a work laptop — need to remedy that and replace my broken laptop so I don’t have to worry about my online activities.
They’re fun times
That’s how it is done.

DPRK News has been suspended by Twitter for impersonation.
So Twitter is in the pocket of Xi and Kim. Nice.
Oh, it’s much worse than that.
Unreal, absolutely unreal….
In fairness, all they have to do is put “parody” in the bio. What’s the harm? Just wear the word.

Im watching Joe Rogan do stand-up and Alex Jones just leaned over to tell me that I am Jesus and some of you still doubt that we live in a simulation
If we don’t live in a simulation and there’s no way out of this current shit show, all hope is lost.
