IFLA: The “More PowerPoint” Edition of the Horoscope for the Week of Nov 28

Enjoying the leftovers?  Honestly, turkey club sandwiches are my favorite thing about the meal, especially when accompanied by refried dressing.  There is usually leftover dressing because mom’s recipe fills two 11″ x 13″ x 6″ baking dishes.  The mashed potatoes OTOH only are what can fit into the pot to boil, so they’re a one and done thing.

When Lily and Daisy clash, the park trembles with their floral fury.

 

This week finally has a construction worth talking about.

 

Locator not accurate for all Glibs

 

We’ve got Mercury and the Sun in alignment, with the Moon in opposition, and Venus en tierce.  This means good luck in your personal life, more specifically your romantic life, but being threatened either by instability or more literally by water.  Secondarily, we have Venus and Mars aligned which has a similar message vis-à-vis one’s love life, but this also may indicate the resolution of a quarrel, one of the partners coming home on leave, or conversely (and referring to the moon supra) violence being the threat.

Mercury being in Sagittarius strongly suggests that we’re talking about good luck, not bad.  Incidentally, this is a good few days for practical shooting since Mercury = Speed, and Sagittarius = Accuracy.  Also, Venus in Capricorn doesn’t just indicate a good time for writing love poetry, it’s an augur of clear thinking in general.  However, the same stars shine down on your competitors too, so while you’ll have a sneaky game plan with great scores, you’ll need them in order to do better than normal.  Mars is left behind in Scorpio, presaging the darker aspects of subterfuge, secrets, violence, subtlety, and generally being an asshole.

What are you doing on the chair! And you stole the TOILET BRUSH? Get that filthy thing out of… oh my God that TAIL!

    Also, Venus in Capricorn doesn’t just indicate a good time for writing love poetry,

    Vogon poetry will still suck?

    Love of money, success in business, crazy cat lady, cougar.

    I like money. I’ve had enough crazy cat ladies in my life.

    Well, I do have to see my doctor Tuesday.

    A joke:

    A Texan, A Floridian, and a Pennsylvanian all die and go to Hell. While there, they spy a red phone and ask what the phone is for. The Devil says the phone is for calling back to Earth.

    The Texan asks to call Dallas and talks for five minutes. When done, the Devil informs him the cost is $1 million. The Texan writes the Devil a check.

    The Floridian asks to call Miami and talks for 30 minutes. When done, the Devil informs him the cost is $6 million. The Floridian writes the Devil a check.

    The Pennsylvanian asks to call Harrisburg and talks for four hours. When done, the Devil informs him the cost is $5. The Texan and the Floridian go ballistic wondering why the Pennsylvanian gets to use the phone so cheaply.

    The Devil explains, “Well, since Tom Wolf became governor, Pennsylvania has gone to Hell so it’s a local call.”

      Tim Walz to Tom Wolf, “Minnesota now has unlimited calling and free phones”

    Aries: King of Swords reversed…

    Like that’s ever NOT the case?

  7. MikeS

    Pisces: 9 of Wands reversed – Obstacles, adversity, calamity.

    Meh. I’m a problem solver. I got this.

  8. Draw Me Like One of Your Tulpae, Jack

    Someone in a position of authority working against you. Which honestly refers to everyone here. Or everyone else on the planet when you get right down ot it. But more specifically against YOU in this case.

    Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not actually out to get you

  9. Mojeaux

    Taurus […] Society, good understanding, concord, overkindness, weakness.

    So, I’m a noodle-spined pushover, you say? A touch, even?

    *gives XY side-eye*

    *sighs*

    Yep.

    • Tonio

      Great word, that.

    I was driving home from visiting the family yesterday, so I listened to The Fifth Column.

    Good lord.

    Moynahan: “I don’t think there is any evidence about motive” for the Waukesha parade SUV driver.”

    To their credit, they were discussing the disparity in coverage by the press. But Matt and Michael agreed that they are getting this coverage right… Waiting until details come out.. Not speculating…

    Very revealing as to the bubble they all live in and how pervasive the narrative is in that bubble.

    • rhywun

      Waiting until details come out..

      I have no problem with that. So far all I’ve seen is mind-reading.

  12. Trigger Hippie

    ‘Taurus: The Hierophant reversed – Society, good understanding, concord, overkindness, weakness.’

    Well I’ve got the weakness covered but the rest is rubbish.

  13. Not Adahn

    I’ve just been given the keys to the club. Not all of the keys, but the main gate and pistol shack, as well as the combinations to all of the Cowboy venues. No idea why, since my game does not involve those last tow, but I’ll accept it as a gesture of being set up as a patsy trust.

    • Sensei

      Groucho Marx’s letter of resignation to the Friars’ Club: “I don’t want to belong to any club that would accept me as one of its members.”

    Bwahahahaha – when the jig is up.

    The outside political organization headed by disaffected Republicans and other top Democratic operatives has experienced caustic blowups, internal disputes over beach house-level paydays, and disturbing allegations involving a disgraced co-founder. A recent campaign stunt evoking the march on Charlottesville to close the Virginia governor’s race earned them near universal scorn. And one of the organization’s most recognized members is facing blowback for rooting for another Trump nomination on grounds that he’d be the easiest Republican to beat in the general election.

    “Read the room,” said Zac Petkanas, a Democratic strategist and former senior aide to Hillary Clinton. “They sound like me in 2016.”

    Lily was born into a family with chickens. I wonder if they taught her to dislike large birds? She HATES turkeys and helicopters.

  16. Ownbestenemy

    Sagittarius: The High Priestess reversed – Passion, moral or physical ardor, conceit, surface knowledge.

    My knowledge runs deep, so deep, it put her ass to sleep.

    • Not Adahn

      The High Priestess knows things. The High Priestess reversed thinks she does.

        The Magician does not know how to close tags.

    It’s Christmas light hanging time. Easy enough honey-do list item. We are coming due on a repaint and patching for the house so I got lazy and just stapling the lights in place.

    • Mojeaux

      XY begged to do it because he likes getting up on the ladder.

  18. Nephilium

    Well… I think it’s safe to say that the Bengals/Stillers game is over, and not going to wind up in the preferred outcome of a tie.

    • hayeksplosives

      But it’s still entertaining!!

      Two years ago Big Ben remarked that it might be time for him to retire. Steelers fans and staff said “No! You’re still great! Stay!”

      They should have let him retire with dignity. He knew better than anyone else that he was past his prime.

      • Nephilium

        The back to back interceptions (with the latter resulting in a TD) was entertaining.

        I’m more concerned about the Browns night game tonight. Stefanski needs to keep up the run and stop switching over to trying long passing, and I really wish Baker had rested last week. Baker’s saying he’s feeling better and is mobile… so here’s hoping.

      • hayeksplosives

        I regarded Baker as a hated rival when he played for the Sooners, but I’m very happy for him having success with the Browns.

    • R C Dean

      Pressley would be the first one I’d sue for defamation.

      • MikeS

        The first one on a long, long list.

    • MikeS

      …typically point to his appearance at a bar in January, 2021, for a photo alongside members of the Proud Boys in which he was photographed making the “okay” sign…Rittenhouse insists that the appearance was arranged by his right-wing attorneys Lin Wood and John Pierce — whom he quickly fired and accused of exploiting him for fund-raising purposes — and that he had no idea that the people with whom he was posing for a photo were Proud Boys members.

      WTF? I don’t know the details, but based on that one sentence, shouldn’t those two be disbarred? Or sanctioned or something? How in the world could any competent lawyer think that was a good photo op to make?

    • hayeksplosives

      The left forgets that one of the main reasons Hilary lost in 2016 is that ordinary Americans are tired of being labeled racists and deplorable and sexist etc.

      They’re making the same mistake again.

  19. UnCivilServant

    Morning… *checks clock* … err… Afternoon.

    Don’t know why I slept until afternoon today.

    Mine has something writen in, I assume French.

    I’m not going to look that up.
