Also, this picture just struck my funny bone the right way.
“After several sequels and reboots, the franchise felt spent.”
“Mum sparks debate after taking Christmas tree down – people say it’s too early”
I’m sorry, it’s a nostalgic topic for me this time of year.
Expectations can be dangerous, but what the hell.
The last Christmas song of the Friday Afternoon Links (this year).
I bought mead, Jameson, some premixed vodka soda + flavor drinks for the wife, and Guinness. We have tamales that we can steam for later and I was going to do my party food for tonight but it is just wife, me, and one teen.
So you are like Anthony Quinn?
Girlfriend and I are heading out for dinner tonight, then to a brewery that’s celebrating their first NYE. They’ll have a food truck for a bit, and they have a solid beer list. I stopped in once during their opening weekend a couple months back, the girlfriend hasn’t made it there yet. Only a couple of miles from home, with other options if we decide to change locations.
I’ve got beer and plenty of it. Plan on leaning into it pretty good tonight.
Like this, maybe.

My friends Mexican mother in law made the best tamales I ever had.
I told her this and his wife told me not to say that because then she would make a bunch and give them to me.
Had a freezer full a week later.
Never did see the downside.
This is from October, but still gross.

“Nearly 7 in 10 Americans say they reuse single-use disposable masks
46% who use reusable cloth masks wash their masks daily or after each use
o 43% wash their reusable cloth mask weekly
o 8% don’t wash their reusable cloth mask”
We have to wear them at work. I change mine out weekly because I’m a cheap bastard who realizes they don’t do any good anyway.
I toss my cloth masks in a mesh bag meant for machine washing lingerie into the laundry room.
Some elves then miraculously wash and dry them and put them in my “mask drawer” of my dresser. I suspect that the elves might actually not exist and that my husband is doing the laundry, but I digress.
I do hate the fact that I have an entire dresser drawer set aside for masks, but as a “homeland security” person, I gotta do it. So that you don’t have to.
*Benny Hill salute*
The single use disposable masks hold up pretty good in the wash.
“Legendary comedic actress Betty White, ‘the First Lady of Television’ dies at the age of 99 – days short of her 100th birthday – after an eight-decade long career in Hollywood”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-10359327/Betty-White-dies-99-Legendary-actress-passes-away-just-weeks-milestone-100th-birthday.html
R.I.P. 🙁
I was in the supermarket checkout line and saw the cover of “People” magazine — “Betty White turns 100!”
So close…
Jinx! It’s all their fault! Curse them! ?
There are many excellent reasons to loathe People — this is just another one.
That’s just one of the saddest things. But did you buy it? I’m guessing they’ll be pulling it from the shelves.
Definitely should have bought it and put it in a time capsule.
And you could use it to fuck with wikipedia, since it’s WP:RS
No. She was a nice lady, but I’m not part of the great homo cult of Betty White.
I’m just thinking of the $ value, filthy capitalist that I am.
I never saw the appeal of Golden Girls.
Me neither. It’s terrible.
I remember her for other things.
She killed it on the Mary Tyler Moore show.
It turned an entire generation of young boys gay, though!
We take our tree down on the 26th. It’s a real tree, so they are generally getting spent by then anyway.
Christmas night does seem a tad early.
We do after New Years, but that is only because we buy our tree last minute cause well…desert + dead tree trying to live on the meager water you give it never goes well.
Although, the tree we bought this year has held up very well and is still green and smelling fresh. The tree lot was asking $95 and we scoffed and he said “$40 bucks?” sold.
You leave that shiznat up until Epiphany.
^^THIS.
X3
I agree, but on the other hand a dead tree can be a fire hazard. But I’d leave all the other decorations up until the Epiphany.
Do you know who else could use a reboot where he’s portrayed as a sorta lovable lout instead of a villain?
Brochettaward?
Oh, very nice!
First person I thought of.
Totally expected that.
So, was there any other answer?
He’s rude, a walking embodiment of “toxic masculinity,” and kind of a bigot. He calls Miguel “Menduo” and makes a crack about “more immigrants,” genderizes, and occasionally uses a derogatory word that refers to a female body part.
Oh, lordy.
I read the whole thing. It took several attempts as I kept hanging on this line and had trouble taking the seriously after reading it every time.
The oldest living thing in Middle Earth is not extraneous and “dry prose”… say what?
It’s been a long time since I read the books, but I don’t recall Bombadil as really moving the story, having any character development, or being anything but a brief stop on the road.
To turn books into movies, you’ve gotta cut something.
As I recall, it was a worldbuilding character to bring in the existence of immortal beings operating outside the scope of the story. He didn’t disappear when he wore the ring. I saw him as a mere construct of the universe as a whole…not there to interfere and represented that nothing new in this world.
The ring had no effect on him. He was neither tempted nor transmogrified by it.
Thanks for saying the same thing dad.
I started composing that before I saw your post, you young whippersnapperer. Someday you’ll be old like me, and everything will take longer.
Well, not everything. These days I can think of at least one thing that I finish up a lot faster than I used to.
Crossword puzzles?
Also yes.
While I agree about the importance of Tom Bombadil, we were lucky to have gotten the LOTR we did at the time we did.
Hollywood doesn’t like to remake movies until at least twenty years out, so we might see another version before the decade is out. And now there is a larger and younger fanbase than we would have otherwise have had, and that tends to keep them on-script (as it were).
It depends on whats being remade. Off the top of my head: Spider-Man, Suicide Squad, Fantastic Four, and the X-Men all got reboots/remakes in less then 20 years.
All reboots will be rewritten to be woke and the casting done solely based on diversity. They won’t be improvements.
Fuck. More Rednecks in the Mist.
AC: Vahalla beat GoW to the Ragnorok, or so it seems. Of course, two different gameplay styles. I don’t want some dirty Greek to be going to my final resting place.

On Thursday, Biden in a 50-minute phone call urged Russian President Vladimir Putin to lower those tensions. He warned that the U.S. was prepared to “respond decisively if Russia further invades Ukraine,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said.
“I made it clear to President Putin that we will have severe sanctions, we will increase our presence in Europe, with NATO allies,” Biden said on Friday.
Joe Biden, most powerful man on the planet.
“We’ll send Hunter over to give your hookers STDs”
That’s better.
Nah, we cave and Putin gets most of what he wants and doesn’t invade while Biden pretends it was his tough talk that got him to back down. Don’t you even foreign relations Kabuki theater bro?
Shorter Biden: “Let me get my stuff out of there first.”
If they invade Ukraine, he will be very put out.
I watched Jupiter’s Legacy. I thought that other than the makeup, it was good. I was alone in that opinion apparently.
Yeah, the makeup and costumes looked a bit rough. Have you checked out Raising Dion yet? The girlfriend and I watched it and were both pleasantly surprised by it.
Never even heard of it. Netflix?
Yes. Short sell is a single black mother is raising a seven year old who starts to develop powers (starting with telekinesis). It was renewed for a second season which is due out in February. First season is 9 ~45 minute episodes.
I thought it was decent. Just like Cowboy Bebop, they cancelled it before I was halfway through the season.
Please watch the anime.
That show was a travesty.
If you equate the two…yes, the show was terrible. Stand alone? Not bad at all. I said before it was a noir Firefly reboot.
The live action version owed a heavy artistic debt to “Blade Runner” and “The Jetsons” (original, animated series). Corgi! Sideboob! Mustafa Shakir! Mustafa Shakir! (Yes, I wrote that twice because Mustafa fucking Shakir.)
I guess, I’m not an anime fan in general Cowboy Bebop and Samurai X: Trust & Betrayal are the two exceptions.
When I saw what they did to Faye and how they ruined the end of the first episode, I had no interest in seeing more.
I’m not an anime fan in general Cowboy Bebop and Samurai X: Trust & Betrayal are the two exceptions.
Same here. Hmm, guess I’ll have to check Samurai X out.
Make sure it’s Trust and Betrayal, the other one is a kid’s show.
Also, is it too much to ask that if you’re going to be the showrunner, you should love the original material?
Looking at you Witcher.
Apparently the sprite running atop the progress meter on the loading screens in Fire Emblem Three Houses is fully under the control of the player, can run left or right, and can even jump… something to do while waiting for the loading screen to pass.
I should get back to my second playthrough in that game to get the rest of the story, then go for the third house.
Spoiler, there are four paths.
Already aware of that. I made the mistake of upping the difficulty on the second playthrough since I had a better understanding of the mechanics now. Hell, I still haven’t finished Metroid Dread, and I think I’m about 75% done with it at this point.
I’m still unsure how someone can win on classic mode unless they do a lot of save scumming.
So safe, so effective.

Readers of The Expanse novels: Is whatever the motivation was in the books for the MCRN traitors turning over ships to Marcos a thing that anyone cares about? Because in the series, there’s two episodes left and Laconia is just home to Resurrection Dogs.
It’s been awhile, but I think they gave the ships to Marco’s to hide the fact they were breaking away.
Also the books went WAY more into some of the characters in the Laconian Navy.
I like the show, but parts of it make my brain hurt.
I got Netlix for Cobra Kai but bailed at S3E2. I couldn’t stand that neither Johnny nor Danny were making any progress individually or together.
That bugged me too. Then all of a sudden they combine studios.
Oh sorry. spoiler alert.
They actually do grow and start to mend fences as the third season goes on. At the start of the fourth season, their two dojos are merged, and they’re trying to figure out how to blend the different teaching styles and methods.
I liked The Umbrella Academy. And the Netflix Marvels were pretty good. Carrie-Ann Moss gave her best performances in the last season of… either Daredevil or Jessica Jones. Hard to tell those two apart.
I like The Punisher.
And his superpower is the best. He shoots people really well with guns.
The Punisher was awesome.
Especially the first season, but the second one was pretty damn good.
agreed
Daredevil and Punisher are worth keeping Netflix. Some of the best Marvel stuff out there. So much so they are bringing back the Daredevil actors for new movies and shows.

U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez appeared to get an early start on New Year’s weekend Thursday, according to a report.
The New York Democrat was seen, maskless and drink in hand, as she dined outside in Miami Beach, Florida, the National Review reported. The congresswoman and a companion were spotted at Doraku Sushi and Izakaya, the report said.
The sighting quickly drew snarky reactions on social media.
——-
DeSantis’ office also responded on Twitter.
“Welcome to Florida, AOC!” the tweet said. “We hope you’re enjoying a taste of freedom here in the Sunshine State thanks to @RonDeSantisFL’s leadership.”
I don’t much give a shit what she does, as long as she refrains from interfering with my freedom.
I like how she said republicans hate her because they want to date her.
Holy shit. I wanna date that narcissistic sorority bitch so badly.
She’s decent looking. I’d do her again.
These fucking people.
Rather than getting a ‘scroe’ for your team, people should just realize..”Oh, they don’t give a shit so it must not be all that bad”.
Just like Obama’s party.
I stand with this brave patriot, willing to defy the idiotic COVID regime.
Friendly reminder:
Reminds me of the joke I saw going around a couple years back:
Is that like “I quit drinking for good.”
“Now I only drink for evil.”?
What good is sitting alone in your room? Tonight is a holiday! Login to GlibZoom tonight; come see the cabaret.
Since Neph is going to be out celebrating tonight, I will kick off a special NYE GlibZoom at 20:00 EST. So break out the confetti, poppers, whippets, polystyrene cement, or whatever boats your float. All-nite specials on Purple Drank. Girls, girls, girls. (Dammit, Inga, you need to shave). Even the orchestra is beautiful.
I will be dropping in probably close to you weird Easterners around midnight… depending on how the wife is holding up.

Wow, you are like the worst person, ever. Teasing us with delicious meat products, and denying us our puns and snark.
Denying us puns!?!

Far from it–I was merely casing the joint, preparing the way for others to liver up the conversation.
We’re going to have to have a frank discussion.
I am guessing we will find db on Grindr tonight.
Casing the joint?

He’s a brat.
Stuff it.
Keeping up with the puns can be a chorizo.

Just saw a commercial for Dick’s Sporting Goods crowing about their chick senior management team and claiming they’re all about empowering female athletes.
If you really want to empower women, take a public stand against fake tranny “women” invading women’s sports. And sell guns, bitches.
Speaking of annoying commercials, am I the only one who’s sick unto death of that “Most Unusual Day” electric car commercial? Jeeminy criminy, give it a rest!
Maybe they could change the name to Twats’ Sporty Stuff.
“Remember, ladies. A restraining order is nothing but a piece of paper.”
Much like the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Ouch.
Chicks with Dicks?
A sports store that caters to mediocre male athletes who want to excel where they actually can?
What’s becoming annoying is that almost every single ad on tv these days features a gay couple or a mixed race couple. Or a gay, mixed race couple.
Can’t verify it, but someone pointed out that the racial and gay/straight contestant mix on tv game and ” reality” is way out of proportion to the
actual proportion in the population.
This has got to be the stupidest ‘bitch’ I keep hearing, who cares? What the demographic make up of the actors and the people they are ‘portraying’ in McDonald’s latest commercial is the least important thing I can think of. It’s probably related to my not caring if some fictional work gets a geographical or historical ‘fact’ wrong. But man is it tiring listening to the rednecks at the bar whinging every time a commercial comes on because ‘that doesn’t represent reality’, no shit, it’s a commercial. People don’t dance and laugh and have special moments at the fast food joint either. They order their depressing food and eat it quietly and shamefully, wallowing in the self-pity that comes with realizing that one is a grown ass adult and eating a Big Mac Combo Meal instead of preparing a real meal like a person with any modicum of self respect would.
I know that when I use Tampax, my menstrual cycle is a wonderland of unicorns & rainbows, just like the commercial sez.
Dude, get your plumbing yanked. THAT is rainbows and unicorns.
It isn’t all wrapped up in a tidy neat box?
I eat my Big Mac combo with dignity: grey poupon infused peppercorn squashed hollandaise sauce slathered.
Meh, I knew agree with Hype. Who cares about a commercial.
Could you repost that without the typo, I need a clean screenshot for my “The Hype is Correct” book. Thanks in advance.
It’s a window into our elites/rulers’ desire to eliminate white people and ordinary sexuality/morality.
And? suppose it works and a couple of hundred years from now whites, blacks ,reds, yellows, what have you have fucked each other for so long that you can’t tell the difference anymore, and say the letter people win and no one cares what genitals the people fucking have. What’s the downside?
You think that is what that’s about??
Now THAT is the funniest thing I’ve heard in a while.
Talk about not being able to spot the sucker at the poker table.
Please explain it to me Ozy, I’m listening. How are our elites/ruler going to eliminate white people/ ordinary sexuality by showing mixed raced/gendered couples in Burger Chef commercials. Go on, worse case scenario time, these people win, what happens.
I can’t tell if you’re being intentionally obtuse, dishonest, or this is a schtick and you’re really going to try to argue such a narrow point.
The complaint is that every commercial now appears to be a transgender, mixed-race couple (of whichever group is the newest leader on the grievance totem). Regardless of what the elites and idiots in government say and do, the country remains something like 70% white or so. i.e. Overwhelmingly white – and overwhelmingly straight. Yet our corporate culture peddles this ridiculous parody of reality, by portraying an infinitesimally small portion of the populace as if it’s “the norm.”
Why would a company pay large $$ in advertising for such a bizarrely a-realistic portrayal of what’s “normative” for the vast majority of people who are likely buyers of their product? Let’s table that argument – which is what the original complaint/comment was about.
Your riposte is to pretend that what people are complaining about an entirely different point, ie.e. that this is really about caring who fucks who. IOW, you’ve intentionally turned the complaint into one about the actual habits of the people in the commercials, and not about how atypical the commercials are by virtue of these completely fake portrayals of what’s “normative.” Just notice who all of the LGBTQ+ and BLM folks align themselves with. Very few of us are obsessed with who fucks who – but we’re awfully curious as to why it’s pushed EVERYWHERE as normative, when realistically it’s such a bizarrely small portion of the population.
You can pretend that CS said something else, but his complaint was very specifically about one thing, and you’ve turned it into something else. Because it’s another one of your “things” – “the stupidest bitch”.
Maybe you’re missing the point – or intentionally missing the point, I don’t know.
This is BS. My whole life plays out like an old Mentos commercial.
Frat boys playing out their deepest darkest secrets?
My wife, who was not born in the US, was shocked to find out that blacks make up only about 15% of the population. Based on what she sees on tv she thought it was much higher.
Tonight I will spend the evening quarantined in the basement. Wednesday, after outdoor hockey, I came down with a fever. I took a rapid Covid test and it was negative. Then I went to urgent care, where they tested for flu (negative) and strep (negative). I have to wait a few days for the PCR Covid test results to be sure. But if it’s positive, I have to decide whether to hide this from my team. Team rules say if someone comes to practice and then tests positive, everyone there has to stay away for 2 weeks. That means the team will miss a big tournament next weekend. I hate that we are all forced into these dilemmas. Mrs TOK thinks if I’m positive I should just ignore it. My 10 days would be up in time for the tournament.
I side with the Mrs.
This is all so fucking stupid.
Well it is only 5 days now, so you’re good bro!
Didn’t you have covid in the fall? And then got vaccinated? I read somewhere that vaccination shortly after recovery might have a negative effect on developing naturally immunity. But most likely it’s just a cold.
Yes I had it in September. So pretty likely it’s a cold. But it suck waiting like this.
If it was outdoor hockey, that makes it difficult to spread.
I agree with the wife. At this point, it’s all on the individual to protect themselves. If they are afraid of getting it, they can stay home.
At this point yes. She just read a text from a friend who got it. Some guy was giving him shit for spreading it and getting someone else sick. But I’ve never met anyone who knew exactly where they got it, unless it was a family member in their home.
← You all can see I changed back into my regular garb before the end of December.
Don’t have a place to put a tree here in the new place, but I gussied up my ginormous wreath with about a million lights and hung it over the fireplace. I also took it down on the 27th. Took down my tiny office tree too. I usually leave it all up until New Year’s Day, but we weren’t feeling

Nice! Not as cool, but most air traffic radars operate at ~2.63 MHz. That number is what is needed for range gating.
Also not as cool, butI love old computers and still marvel at the engineering behind them. I get a little nostalgic about old tech sometimes. db’s link kind of reminds of learning the F-4 Phantom II “Dive Toss” bombing system computer in AF tech school. I never worked them in the service as I went to MAC.
I worked on C-5As that had 16Kb MADAR systems. The memory module LRU alone must have weighed more than 30 pounds.
Ever checked out this site? It’s a nerd’s paradise. Many, many, footnotes and technical discussions of the equipment, including original drawings. Anyone who has dealt with a Military Tech Order will recognize the format.
For example, the Apollo guidance computer used “nouns” and “verbs”, the former being data and the latter actions.
I’m hoping the Los Angeles news copters go up tonight to film all the illegal fireworks. I love the SHOCKED! and APPALLED! reactions of the copter reporters and news anchors.

Timberlake is ridiculously talented. Very good singer, solid actor, very funny.
He’s the most famous person I’ve ever been within ten feet from. I took two sisters who I was very close with at the time to NYC for a day when they visited me in Boston. Ten minutes after we started walking around Time’s Square he sauntered by with at least a score of young ladies following him around like starved wolf cubs begging for a scrap of meat.
The olde sister immediately soaked her panties and chased after him for a couple blocks then called every girlfriend she had to recount the experience… I’m not jealous… He’s a short fucker. I’m at least five inches taller!
Fuck you, Timberlake, and your natural talent, your non threatening good looks, and your easy high end/supermodel pussy, and your tens of millions of dollars,…and Victoria Silvstedt, Playboy Model of the Year in a hot tub with you….FUCK!!!

Yikes, that’s cold.
Seriously, there is a sweet spot for ice and hard ice is rough to play on. It was really tough for us SoCal kids that generally had soft ice and grew accustomed to it and we played in areas like CO, NY and Canada.
“I just wanted to wish you a happy new year and to assure you 2022 will be better.”
Same, and I hope you are right.
I thought the NHL cancelled the season because not enough players got vaxed.
Several games were cancelled around Xmas.
Rangers are playing now. And it’s in Florida so super-spreader.
Tundra! I was thinking of you when looking at the map of the Boulder fires. I figure you are south and east of there so maybe not much fire danger but smoke?
Happy New Year to you too. It will be better. We’ll make it that way.
? May your 2022 be more Bud Grant and Less Steckel.
NHL is going for extremes: last time the ice melted at Lake Tahoe.
The things this coffee table has seen….

More ass than the Resolute Desk? Bets?
I’m glad they rescued an artifact but it also looks like they straight up stole her property. Nossir, I don’t like it, not one bit.
She’d bought the mosaic from an Italian noble family in the 1960s, the New York Times reported in 2017, then handed it off to her Italian ambassador friend who, handling logistics, “smuggled it” to New York on her behalf. Hearing this, “the district attorney was very, very, mad,” Del Bufalo said, and threatened to have her arrested.
Rules truly are for the little people.
“She didn’t reply,” he told the Newspaper. “She didn’t want it, she didn’t want to talk.”
Well, you fucked her over pretty thoroughly, so no surprise.
Yeah, you brought a fucking prosecutor to have a nice chat about it. Fuck you, asshole.
There is nobody I like in this story.
Here’s a great idea: let’s go to the mall on New Year’s Day to get you some socks. You need some, right? Wives have the best ideas.
A man’s great idea is just as stupid as a woman’s. Who would have thought?
She can go by herself to get the socks for you.
You’d think.

“the Union Army should ignore Richmond, instead find Lee’s army and destroy it.”
Actually, by not ignoring Richmond, Grant knew Lee’s army would have to move to defend it. Grant’s whole Overland Campaign was designed to
maneuver towards Richmond and try to force Lee into a position where he could be crushed. Ultimately, it worked as Lee was besieged as cautious
Union generals failed to take Petersburg when it was ripe for the taking.
