Hanukkah is early this year, what with the lunar vs. solar calendar. Winter isn’t, though, at least not around here. We’ve had a few decent snowstorms, ice in the mornings, and chilly nights. Our dear friend, the delightful Tulip, will be joining us later this week for the festivities. Much spiked cider, some refreshing local wines, a misshapen dreidel, and we’re ready to go. She’ll meet our snowflakes, both literal and figurative, and try her best (RIGHT???) not to cause us to lose our staff. The amusement factor will be worth it.
In any case, SP and I are going to have a fun day today tasting Georgian wine and food. Not Atlanta, Tbilisi. So you kids behave yourselves after we’re out of here.
Birthdays today include a proto civil libertarian; a guy who took Chief Brody’s suggestion seriously; a guy who was not an artist; a Nobelist who could not possibly win it if he were around today; a hawk among the sparrows; the connection between the Rams and The Outer Limits; a fascinating guy who was actually married more times than I was; the greatest politician/entertainer ever, whose example should inspire contemporary government sorts; a guy who should have taken that inspiration; a guy who made me like the way I look; a woman who is deeply weird and deeply talented; a guy who makes you beg for more Joe Buck; and a guy who inspired trains and subways all over England.

My best friend won’t come to visit me until her first child (who is currently less than two) is vaccinated. I didn’t begin to contradict her because she’s his parent and I’m not.
Principles are hard.
In most cases, principles are non-existant or incoherent. My wife’s best friend won’t let my wife come visit her newborn because I am not vaccinated, even though my wife is. Also, the new mother is an elementary school teacher who has been working up until leave, so tons of direct exposure to, gasp, unvaccinated kids.

I’m too lazy to fact check this but even if it’s true it still doesn’t excuse the behavior.
It’s another case of where what some lefties did was bad enough but the right goes overboard and distorts and lies about what happens, so now unfortunately people have an excuse to ignore the actual bad because the lies are easily debunked.
What Harris and her office did was fight a supreme court order to release non-violent inmates early, but not releasing early does not equal holding past release date (and they ultimately failed and the ordered decarceration began) The jail labor thing stems from her lawyers arguing that they couldn’t let some people out (again early not after erving their full time) because they were needed to work on fire fighting crews, but that was also unsuccessful (and Harris claimed, when it was reported that she had no knowledge of it, however that is possibly just her covering her ass)
Damn you for being reasonable.

Why don’t they just meekly comply? It’s the American way, if what I’m seeing not happen in our most-locked down areas is accurate.
I don’t get traffic in this city. everyone driving everywhere all the time. stay home goddamnit. How can they afford the gas?
Just had to fill up and 6 goddamn american dollars per one goddamn american gallon. fuck sakes.
If it makes you feel better, my brother sent a picture of his gas receipt yesterday – $5.9999 a gallon for 16 gallons.
$1 extra a gallon for full service (self serve was backed up or something) plus another $1.50 or so per gallon because he was on a highway and FYTW.
Where was this?

Sorry to go OT, but am hoping for some help. I’m stumped and DuckDuckDuck Go is turning up nothing.
I had a partial clog in the toilet that was finally resolved yesterday after we cut out the pipe and removed a large toy that a child had dropped down an open line during the renovation. Pipe goes down from the toilet to an elbow in the basement and then out to the septic. We visually confirmed no additional obstructions in either pipe and reinstalled the toilet. Now the toilet completely clogs on the 3rd flush, every time, and I just have to wait for the water level to slowly recede over a half hour or so.
It feels like the pipes are completely filling with water that I then have to wait to recede. How can this be happening with obstruction in the pipes? This was not happening when the pipes were partially clogged from the toy. Could it be from how the pipes were reattached after being cut?
How can this be happening with no obstruction in the pipes?
Your vent may be clogged, most likely a bird or birds nest, I woulr urn a snake down from the roof line to the septic, you can’t run a snake up a vent from below.
That sounds non-pipe related. I’d wager you have another clog or… your septic is full of water or sediment. Have you got a lot of rain lately?
Could be. Can you check the angle of the pipes? Or are the inaccessible? The pipe may not be angled properly to run the water out anymore.
Second toy that made it further down the pipe?
Man, these euphemisms…
Thanks everyone. I don’t think it’s a clogged vent or septic because this wasn’t issue until the pipes were reattached and then immediately happened. The toilet drain line connects further down to the vent, shower, and bathroom sink. The shower and bathroom sink are running fine without backing up, just the toilet.
I went down into the basement and shook the toilet line and it’s full of water. I could hear it sloshing around. I just ran the sink and shower at full blast to see if they backed up too, but instead the toilet full of standing water water started gurgling and bubbling for maybe a minute and then suddenly drained out. The toilet appears to be flushing fine now, but that’s probably just temporary.
The sink, shower, and vent all join up before the toilet line joins. Could it be the angle of the toilet line is now not enough for drainage from the toilet after being cut and reattached? Is that why running water sources further down the line basically sucked all of the standing water out of the toilet?
Drop a m80 down the pipe. That oughta clear it up.
Let’s call that Plan E. Although I wouldn’t put it past one of the kids at this point.
Tried to reproduce and the toilet filled with standing water after several flushes that immediately drained itself out when I ran the shower and sink. I guess I’ll try making a sharper angle and see what happens. This has been helpful working through, thanks everyone.
The toilet is not directly vented?
I’m going to echo the suggestions about the venting.
This is also the reason I pay a plumber when I can get one. Good ones earn every cent.

Could it be from how the pipes were reattached after being cut?
Or, as R J suggested, you may have lost the proper grade for flow during the repair. A low spot in the pipe could be causing a backup.
You only need 1/8″ per foot, a lot of times an extra strap near the elbow wil fix that,
I think so. It’s a 90 degree elbow so the horizontal toilet drain pipe running almost level before it joins up with the shower and sink. Maybe it was borderline before and the cut/reattachment lost another couple degrees.

“State Board Drops ‘Sex Offender’”
OK, rapist it is then. Seriously though, some of the laws should probably be revisited and dropped but that’s a bit much. If you rename it the new name acquires the same stigma.

+2 Stealth bomber
I read that as Skate Board, obviously too much Fox Trial news for me.
Most “sexual offenders” are for things like urinating outdoors or sexting and are way overly punished w/ permanent stigma.
So good .
It looks like the laws, penalties, and restrictions remain the same without any meaningful changes that I can see. Some people do deserve to be labeled with the term in my opinion but I’d argue it should be reserved for the most serious offenses and the replacement, “adults who commit sexual offenses,” isn’t really stigma removing for those people convicted of the kinds of offenses you point out.
I would just call rapists and molesters that. I think the term sex offender is designed to group people in with serious offenders.
That sounds pretty reasonable actually.
We saw a deer on our walk this morning. I’m so glad I got the Sporn harness for her when I first got here. While she was caterwauling at the deer and waking up the whole neighborhood, she was not pulling my arm off.
The deer, BTW, could not have given less of a shit about us.
We had a family vacation in the Poconos this year near Lake Harmony (i think that was the name) and we would see lots of deer and they’d let us come within 5 feet without even turning their heads. My 9 mo old son was very happy.
So, you’re the reason deer have covid.

Dozens of looters descended on a Nordstrom store and stole merchandise Saturday night in a raid that was over within a minute, police in Walnut Creek, California said.
Approximately 80 people rushed into the store in the city’s Broadway Plaza, a spokesperson for the Walnut Creek Police Department told NBC News.
They said that one employee was pepper sprayed, and two others were punched and kicked. All three sustained minor injuries, and were treated and released at the scene, they added.
——-
Three people have been arrested in connection with the incident so far, police said. Two were arrested immediately for robbery, conspiracy, burglary and possession of stolen property. One of those two had a firearm and is facing a weapons charge, police added. A third person was found not long after the incident and is also facing charges.
Walnut Creek Police also confirmed that the incident was not linked to a series of protests that have taken place across the country over the non-guilty verdict in the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse.
It was the racism what made them do it.
80 people?!
JFC. It’s almost like this shit is being encouraged.
The cause is that store owners shooting looters is outlawed. Turns out taking away your right to armed self defense of person and property has consequences.
Store management should be issued chainsaws to carry on site.

Although global demand for electricity has bounced back to pre-pandemic levels, global oil production has not — not by a long shot. In the United States, oil production remains 12% lower than in February 2020, right before the impact of the pandemic ripped through oil markets. That’s the equivalent of pulling the U.S.’s entire production in the Gulf of Mexico out of the global economy. And oil and gas production levels have remained low even as the world suffers from an extreme energy crunch and skyrocketing fuel prices.
And whose fault is it? Depending on who you ask, the answer is either Vladmir Putin and a geopolitical power play on the part of Russia, Joe Biden and his dastardly plan to do away with fossil fuels and suck U.S. coffers dry in the process, or OPEC+ and their stingy refusal to respond to the energy crisis unfolding in Europe, Asia, and (to a lesser extent) the United States. Now, President Joe Biden is pointing the finger at another culprit: the conniving and greedy domestic oil and gas industry. This week the U.S. president asked federal regulators to open an investigation into the U.S. oil and gas industry to determine whether companies are engaging in “illegal conduct” by profiting off of consumers’ pain, citing “mounting evidence of anti-consumer behavior by oil and gas companies.”
“The bottom line is this: gasoline prices at the pump remain high, even though oil and gas companies’ costs are declining,” President Biden wrote this week in a letter to FTC chair Lina Khan. “The Federal Trade Commission has authority to consider whether illegal conduct is costing families at the pump. I believe you should do so immediately.”
\We need price controls.
And rationing, so people only get their fare share.
“mounting evidence”
I’m sure they’ll let us know what that evidence is as soon as they finish conjuring it up.
Lack of Climate Control causing nasty ol’ storms in the gulf brought about by white supremacy is all the evidence I need.
Of course some people need more gas than others so we have to have stickers showing that.
https://carcoachreports.com/gas-rationing-gas-ration-stickers/
An angle I didnt immediately consider:
“Actually, gas wasn’t what they were rationing at all. The main purpose of the restrictions on gas purchasing was to conserve tires. Japanese armies in the Far East had cut the U.S. off from its chief supply of rubber.”
During WW2 my dad got a 5 gallon ration a week. He rode the street car to/from work and saved the gas for the week end.
He found 3 new tires on the ‘open market’, hid them in the basement, installed them one at a time, rubbed dirt of them to make them look used. There were lots of Karens back in the war years. Rationing/prohibition brings out the best and the worst of people.
Joe just got a boner.
So, you are saying he is Blue Pilled?
For those who were not around for Carter, they are angling for a “windfall profits tax”.
The outrage was that in a time of rising oil prices, the price of oil might go up while a ship was en route filled with oil. They said the excess profit was ill-gotten gains and slapped big excise taxes on it.
One of the more profound failures to understand market forces in all of history.

‘…the greatest politician/entertainer ever, whose example should inspire contemporary government sorts’
LMFAO
This isn’t even close to how this country’s federal government was intended to run.
Meh. If that was the case, they would have put term limits in the big C.
More:
Backing up President Biden’s claims, Bloomberg released a report this week that oil and gas explorers in the United States may point to politics as the reason that they are holding back on upping production to ease oil prices, but the real reason is much simpler: they are making money hand over fist. According to figures from Deloitte LLP, U.S. oil companies are making more money now than at any other point in the entire history of the nation’s shale revolution. “And this may just be the beginning,” Bloomberg Markets wrote. “Free cash flow, the key metric watched by investors, probably will increase by 38% next year, presuming oil prices remain elevated.”
The American Petroleum Institute has fired back at President Biden in the wake of his plea to the FTC, saying that the move is merely a “distraction from the fundamental shift that is taking place and the ill-advised government decisions that are exacerbating this challenging situation.” A representative of API went on to criticize Biden’s allocation of his time and energy to fight with the domestic oil and gas industry and OPEC+, saying that his attentions would be better spent “encouraging the safe and responsible development of American-made oil and natural gas.”
Considering Biden not-so-secretly wants to “wean” America off it’s insane self destructive addiction to fossil fuels, Big Oil is just trying to help. Or maybe they are making a rational decision based on expectations of future costs.
If there’s one thing BigGov hates, it’s people other than BigGov “making money hand over fist”.

“change terms like “defendant,” “convict,” and “felon” to “justice-involved people.””

I’ll treat this the same way I treat pronouns. I totally respect and celebrate anyone’s right to call himself whatever he pleases. And he can even politely ask others to do the same. At which time I’ll politely refuse and just say, “No, I’ll use proper language thanks”.
I will never in my life refer to a singular person with the plural pronoun they, and it doesn’t matter what force of coercion you bring down on my head.
I generally treat the Trans this way: If you present as a man, legitimately, I will treat you as such. Same for women, if you can pass then I will treat you as such. And if you present as an asshole, I will treat you as such.
Do they also apply that to “pigs,” and “gestapo? “
In the English language, the adjective precedes the noun. The phrase “sex offender” isn’t constructed to insult sex offenders (though that is a nice benefit), it simply follows basic English. It makes me laugh when people try to say “people of color” isn’t offensive but “colored people” is. Spanish isn’t an option because they have GENDERED NOUNS (gasp!!). Maybe we’ll just all have to start speaking Chinese.

I’m no longer a religious man at this point in my life but I appreciate the idea of people giving thanks to their higher power for providing the ability to survive and prosper.
Thanks, TH. I recognize the Pashtun. I love it. Despite the press and everything said about them, I still love the Afghan people.
They live short, hard lives – and generally live with gratitude – which is hard to imagine given their circumstances.
It’s a lesson I try to remember.
‘Pashtun’
I wasn’t entirely clear what region the people on this channel were from. I assumed they were from Eastern Pakistan/North Western India.
It’s a mix from that area. It’s been awhile, but I suspect the old man is a Pashtun; the two younger guys are probably from the FATA, perhaps even Pakistan proper. The two women I believe are Indian. Central Asia has a wide array of interesting folks and cultures. It was, after all, for centuries the heart of the silk road, right through Torkham Gate.
I always found it interesting that there are a large number of blue-eyed Pashtuns. A tribesman was quick to point out to me that Alexander the Great and his army had left a legacy in more than one way… memories are long in the tribal areas.

These fuckers can’t be parodied. Several times a month I’m working at a 240 unit building about ten blocks away from those stores that is in the Tenderloin. In all it’s wisdom, the city has made the former parking into a bike lane in front of this building that has a constant stream of residents and their many kids, deliveries and workers. As a result I have to park in front of the massive open air drug market across the street. With decriminalizion of hard drugs, you can openly sell, buy and use right in the open. Last week I watched someone overdose (he lived after they Narcan’d him) and the week before some chick was about to snort a line of something off my truck hood before she noticed me in the driver’s seat eating lunch and demurely refrained. It’s a total free for all where you will constantly see bizarre and terrible behavior. Don’t try to illegally park though, as that is strictly enforced. A month back the construction manager got his truck towed within half an hour of parking illegally.
Largely not my style but a great conversion nonetheless. A Vanhool Prevost with a roof deck. I would want a roof deck.

Also, I don’t like the host’s presentation, but every once in a while, we are treated to a mirror glimpse of the ginger beauty behind the camera. Additionally, love the tub/shower.

Where else are you going to keep your Koreans?
