The schools here are finishing up and lots of folks are on break. So no Tales From The Woke. I did, however, have some touching moments, including making breakfast for the owner of the local bar (200 whiskeys available). And I want to take this occasion to thank you kids for subsidizing me- I had an ER visit a few weeks back with an MRI. Received the bill. After Medicare coverage, we owed… $12. I am now firmly in favor of this program.
Birthdays today include a guy who refused to sign the constitution; a guy who knew how to play the angles; a guy whose work was fantastic; a ruiner of millions of taste buds, eh?; a guy who got those darn nuclei to stop rattling around so we could concentrate on the electrons; the guy who taught Koop how to grow a beard; a woman who loved to be in America; a guy who did what we all wanted to do; the butler for the Addams Family; and our first clue about the direction Reason was going to go.

Will someone tell John Hinckley that our governor is fucking Jody Foster?

“Obviously, we want to get to a point where we’re turning to a version of normalcy for everybody, right,” Psaki told reporters. “Where you’re not sending your kids backpack with 7 extra masks, right, or you’re not adding two hats so that they’re warm outside for a snack. There’s no question that’s the case.”
“Abby something. Abby… Normal.”
I was searching for a strawberry joke, but came up dry.

Will someone tell John Hinckley that our governor is fucking Jody Foster?
And nobody in the supine, sycophantic media even has the thought of asking her why the mask mandate will work *this time* when it didn’t work the other times.

Former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows turned over to the House select committee investigating the 6 January Capitol attack a PowerPoint recommending Donald Trump to declare a national security emergency in order to return himself to the presidency.
The select committee is certain there was at least some coordination between the Trump White House and the organizers of the 6 January rally.
Capitol attack committee issues new subpoenas to two ex-Trump aides
The fact that Meadows was in possession of a PowerPoint the day before the Capitol attack that detailed ways to stage a coup suggests he was at least aware of efforts by Trump and his allies to stop Joe Biden’s certification from taking place on 6 January.
A Powerpoint? That’s perilously close to “comfy chair” territory. Alert the U N Human Rights Commission.
For some reason I think they might have been throwing a lot of options at the wall. If I thought that was real, I’d be curious where that fell on the ranked list.

The select committee is certain there was at least some coordination between the Trump White House and the organizers of the 6 January rally.
The vast right wing conspiracy is real!
The recommendations in the PowerPoint for both Trump and Pence were based on wild and unsubstantiated claims of election fraud, including that “the Chinese systematically gained control over our election system” in eight key battleground states.
Preposterous. Only the Russians have that power.
Wild AND unsubstantiated?
OK, then.
Gentlemen, start your models!
Early data show that one person who catches omicron is currently going on to infect two to four other people — that’s at least twice as many as someone who gets the delta variant. The statistics come from countries like the U.K, Denmark and South Africa — all of which have robust surveillance systems in place for tracking coronavirus variants.
And some experts believe omicron is spreading even faster than that.
——-
Although omicron infections only make up a small portion of the overall cases in the U.K., the forecasts are sobering. The country’s health agency is warning that omicron infections are doubling every few days – and could make up half of all cases there by mid-December.
“The quick steady spread is just a very clear signal that this variant can spread exponentially even in highly vaccinated populations,” says Jeffrey Barrett, director of the Genomics Initiative at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, which tracks variants in the U.K.
And the U.S. should take note: What the virus does in Europe, says Barrett, often foreshadows where the pandemic is headed on the other side of the Atlantic. “By next week, we will see clear evidence of an omicron wave in European countries, and I suspect the U.S. is at most a week behind that,” he predicts.
By Easter, humanity will be wiped out.
By rising sea levels, I think, or something, so don’t worry about that.
“Omicron vs. Climate Change”

“Better than Sharknado 4!”
Omicron vs. Queen Karen; this time it’s real!
Computer, if we assume infections double every day, half of infections require hospitalization, and half of hospitalizations result in death, how long will it take to spread to everyone and how many will die?
It will take a month and 1 in 4 will die.
Hmm, what if we assume enacting authoritarian measures will reduce hospitalization to 1 in 10 and deaths to 1 in 10 of those?
1 in 100 will die.
There you have it. SCIENCE has told us the path we must take.
Assume a spherical infectious cow….

Wait, this must be fake news.
Medicare will never go away until we have Universal Med Care, at which time care will be rationed and old folks will not have a ration card. I ran up a sizeable bill last spring and did an Alfred E. Newman impression. I do believe, however, that some things are discouraged even today so hospital vacations are minimized as much as possible.
Yeah, people don’t realize that Medicare floats on top of the private heath care system. It sets very low rates, and everybody else negotiates rates in multiples of what Medicare will pay. You can’t just “put everybody on Medicare” and expect it to cost the same without some serious rationing of care.
They have to break the AMA lock on medical school enrollments to increase the supply of doctors willing to work for less than the current average compensation.
Just start passing out No Fail med school grades. “Wanna be a doctor? Got low grades (no grades)? Enroll on line at the University of Low Expectations and you too can graduate in the top 10 % of your class”
We are not well served by the AMA cartel – particularly considering the number of people that die annually from medical mistakes.
Can we do the Bar Association next?
I mean heck, why not have every industry guild put a stranglehold on admissions to the relevant programs? WCPGW?
You’ll be happy to know that only about 12% of practicing (non-resident) physicians belong nowadays.
Yeah, I don’t think the AMA is as big of a problem as the giant corporate interests pushing docs to churn and burn patients to make the numbers work. Add in a completely fucked up insurance environment and you get modern medicine.
That’s the real problem – there isn’t some simple fix.
Wanna be a doctor? Got low grades (no grades)?
I see you’ve heard of Caribbean medical schools.
When Mrs. Shpip is evaluating med students for her residency program, Caribbean (and other third world) medical students are moved waaaaaaay down the rank list. This is borne of hard-learned lessons.
The one thing she looks for besides medical school reputation? Having had a job outside of school. People who have done paid work for an actual employer have learned things like how to show up for a shift on time, etc. The folks who have done nothing but fill out forms and take tests from the age of 5 to 26 aren’t nearly as good at that.

President Joe Biden said Friday that he was “deeply troubled” by reports of Kellogg’s plan to permanently replace striking plant workers as the union haggles for a new contract involving 1,400 employees.
“I am deeply troubled by reports of Kellogg’s plans to permanently replace striking workers from the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International during their ongoing collective bargaining negotiations,” Biden said in a statement. “Collective bargaining is an essential tool to protect the rights of workers that should be free from threats and intimidation from employers.”
“Permanently replacing striking workers is an existential attack on the union and its members’ jobs and livelihoods,” he added. “And such action undermines the critical role collective bargaining plays in providing workers a voice and the opportunity to improve their lives while contributing fully to their employer’s success.”
We wouldn’t have this problem if wages and prices were set by the Ministry of Plenty.
Collective bargaining is an essential tool to protect the rights of workers
Fuck off, commie.
I think unions for blue collar workers for private business are OK. It’s public sector unions that need to be nuked from orbit.
I think they’re okay in the abstract. The idea that collective bargaining is some fundamental part of market capitalism is commie dreck.
Unions as an expression of free association, workers organizing to improve their bargaining position, I’m fine with. But for the company to want to bargain with the union, the union must provide some value: guarantee a level of competence, or productivity, or something. If hiring union workers had enough value, the company would willingly say “we’re only hiring members of this union.” But leftists have put the unions in a position where they don’t have to provide any particular value, and companies don’t have a choice but to use union labor. So even blue collar unions do more harm than good.
It should be illegal for businesses to not agree to the collective bargaining of a union. After all, it’s a bargain!
There is a reason you never take the lowest bid for a contract…
A lot of public infrastructure is required to take the lowest bid, isn’t it? And they still go way over budget in addition to doing a shitty job.
I have no problem with voluntarily collective bargaining, but bargaining implies the parties are at the table. Striking workers should know the consequences.

A spokesperson for the governor told the outlet it was an “extremely disappointing” ruling and encouraged schools to keep masking despite the lifted health order.
“The administration’s top priority from the beginning of this pandemic has been and remains protecting public health and safety, including students and staff, to ensure in-person learning continues,” spokesperson Beth Rementer said, according to the Inquirer.
“Masking is a proven and simple way to keep kids in school without interruption and participate in sports and other extracurricular activities,” she added.
Simple, anyway. They could try wearing one pink sock and one green sock, too. Just in case.
IMO, the masking shit is even more insulting and illogical than the vaxxing shit. At least the vaxx seems to do *something* in some limited way for high-risk populations. Masks do jack shit; proven in labs to decades before the world fell apart and proven empirically over the past 18 months of stupidity. Desperately clinging to masks is literally worshipping a golden calf in hopes of being spared by angry virus gods.
Masks are the religious fetish of the chattering class.

“It’s like they’re sitting around saying, ‘What else can we do to tank the economy?'”
I’m usually first in line to claim incompetence instead of malice but my likelihood of accepting previously outrageous conspiracy theories has increased a lot in the past 18 months. To wit: I’m beginning to genuinely think that “they” are trying to oversee a controlled collapse of the economy. Maybe they think a collapse is inevitable so they think they can soften the landing or, more likely, they are finally just seizing their opportunity to turn everyone into serfs. The bottom line is that their actions are leading to said collapse regardless of motive.

Ask yourself what would they be doing differently if they intended to tank the economy.
I get tired of watching the commies run roughshod while smart people bitch about ‘incompetent leadership’. They aren’t incompetent, they are amazingly effective. FFS, the WEF comes right out and tells us what they plan to do and people still call it conspiracy theory.
My question is, after playing the long game since the late 19th century, why the push now? Are they seeing their window closing?
Opportunity knocks.
Sure, but there’s a frantic quality to it that seems odd.

No, they’re seeing the window opening. You can’t force things on an unwilling populace. At the very least, they have to be ambivalent. In reality, you need a substantial number of loyal lackeys and a plurality of ambivalent and/or sympathetic normies.
They haven’t really had that until recently.
Just popping in for a second to give thanks for all of the BD well-wishes yesterday. It really made my day! I love you Glibs! Even Pope Jimbo. Judi has left for the weekend but she left plenty of steak, spuds, jumbo shrimp and Greek salad to tide me over. She also bought me a sport head-set and switched up our provider so that I can finally listen to podcasts of the conspiracy theories and terrible music that I’m so fond of. Life is good! 20 down, 13 to go…

They took me to get an ultrasound and it was the same lady who did it on Wednesday.
On Wednesday we had argued about me needing a mask. I get sinus headaches if I cover my nose. I asked why it was necessarysince I just had a negative COVID test. You can probably guess her answer: “It’s our policy”. Eventually she pretended my nose was covered and did my scan.
For some reason today that’s not an option. So I am back in my room without a scan.
Waiting to see what happens next, but I’m not risking a severe headache to make these people feel better. How do they live outside?
Here are some quotes:
You have to wear it to protect me.
You might catch something
The mask doesn’t work 100%
These were all used to rebut whatever point I was trying to make at the time. I don’t know how you can not see the total lack of logic.

“You can probably guess her answer: ‘It’s our policy'”“I’m just following orders”FIFT.
Jesus, Ron! Sorry about your balls blowing up! In all honesty, care descends with age. When I was a strapping young feller the nurses were attentive. Now that I’m of a certain age, they treat me like Finnigan changing Joe’s Depends. It was shocking to me.
Thanks?
Nothing has exploded yet, but that’s funny!
Oh, you have a policy – guess what, I have a policy too!
Nurse says I can wear a really loose mask, but not covering my nose is not an option, because it defeats the purpose of the mask.
Wouldn’t wearing a really loose one also defeat the purpose?
I said no, not risking a headache.
WOOHOO!!
Sometimes being an old stubborn bastard pays off.
Dr. came and talked to me, looked at my exploded balls and asked if I wanted to leave today.

No doubt Psaki is a complete cunte. But I totally would.
She’s the clonal embodiment of my first clingy girlfriend. Wouldn’t give it up for me but after I broke it off (with much drama) she turns up the next year as a “Teen Mom”. Named her first born “Darryl” which juuuust happens to be my first name. Awkward.
Oh yeah, I got to third base with her step-sister. Would have paid to see those fireworks! I was a wee shit-head but I don’t regret much of it. No harm, no foul.
I had a girlfriend like that in highschool.
My friend compared her to the little teddy bear with spring loaded arms she had clipped to her pencil.
But sometimes sticking it in crazy is fun.
I put one toe on the High Fidelity path of looking up old girlfriends several years ago. Only because facebook made it easy. One of them had a cool, funky hat and the others seemed to be settled down more or less. I left it there. I did consider sending a “howdy” to funky hat girl but I was a jerk back when I was 18 so I figured she wouldn’t want to hear from me.
Never had that thought, I got lucky and met my wife when I was 19.
Amish meets?
Beat me too a witty punch Festus…damn you Canadians! Damn you to hell!
Nope, just a drunk Marine accidentally met a nice girl in 1990.
I dipped my toe on that path when I left the military. Had the fun I missed in highschool and immediately got out of town and changed my number.
Ran into her a couple of times at reunions and such. She still carries the torch. Come on Girl, we were 14-15 years old! She’s done well. Still zeroes in on me every time we cross paths. It’s a little unnerving.
She’s got like five sisters and at the last reunion they pissed off Judi to no end. “He’s so smart!” “Wouldn’t Darryl and Ashley have been so great together?” In front of my Wife. Again, awkward.
That’s the same night that I happened to cut a rug with every other girl in the room except for Judi. At least I never fell down. Ah, God, the things you wish you could do over again… Ten year reunion with my Ex. Sitting next to a girl that I always carried a flame for. She starts massaging my thigh. In front of the Ex. Twenty years later, she does it again and rests her head on my shoulder. That was a bilious ride home. “Touchy” is the reason that I quit Facebook.
I’ve been watching a lot of true crime shows in here, and that sounds like the beginning of one.
Just give a ride on the Festus pole for old times’ sake.

At the same time, the economic rebound is facing headwinds as the Delta variant spreads through the nation. Some states with low vaccination rates are experiencing a spike in COVID-19 cases that could dissuade people from taking service jobs in restaurants and other jobs that involve exposure to the public.
Texas’ failure to stem the COVID-19 surge in its state has led to nearly 72,000 job losses and an annualized decline in output of more than $13 billion, a recent study found. Fear of contracting COVID-19 is also leading to job losses in Texas as workers opt to stay home or must stay home to care for family members with the illness, the study noted.
Fucking Texas. If only they had forced everybody to wear a mask, things would be booming. Booming, I say. Like Michigan.
I wonder where that came from.
the economic rebound is facing headwinds
A textbook example of agenda-driving spin, right there. They’re trying to impress on the reader that we’re in a recovery, so how do they align that with sagging numbers? Oh, it’s “facing headwinds”. That’s not “it’s a farce”, that’s not “it’s illusory”, that’s trying to paint the picture of the Biden economy as the little engine that could. The recovery is truth, and inconvenient facts are just a challenge to the will of the truth, not evidence of the falsity of the claim.

A powerful winter storm that will blow into Western Washington this weekend is poised to dump between 2 to 4 feet of snow in the mountains this weekend while the lowlands will see rain and gusty winds that could fell trees and bring down power lines.
KOMO News meteorologist Shannon O’Donnell said the storm could be one of the strongest systems in recent memory.
“This will be one of the biggest winter storms we’ve had in some time,” she said. “There is so much snow on deck.”
