Good morning my Glibs and Gliberinas! And what an amazing day it always is!

Omicron overtakes Delta, now accounts for 73% of all new U.S. COVID cases
Cost of lithium is up more than 250% over the last 12 months, jeopardizing the electric car market.
That’s all I have for this fine day. I’ll leave you with a song and move along with my day.
But is it worth the piles of dead bodies?
Funny how the left has been able to ignore states like Florida, with no restrictions and very low case counts.
Florida? It’s a myth. Buried underneath the oceans as
global coolingglobal warmingCLIMATE CHANGE happened.They refuse to believe the low case numbers from Florida. They believe them only if they are high.
They weren’t ignoring us during the Summer Delta Variant panic of ’21. Then it was all the fault of the dirty unvaxxed and horrible, horrible freedom.
That’s why they’re doing well. They don’t have to spend as much on Medicaid since they’ve killed off all the grandparents.
Exactly, barely any old people in Florida, so of course their death counts are lower.
Yes, the Team Blue fundraising wing is looking at a bad fiscal year. But does anyone expect our rulers to change course because of it?
That “Build Back Better” shit they have been so desperate to fuck us over with, regardless of the impact on our economy, was their contingency plan for precisely this problem. A massive chunk of that money was supposed to funneled into their PACs and DNC campaign coffers. I guess Biden’s people will have to resort to Obama era tactics and enact this criminal activity using Obama’s “Pen and phone” strategy…
Now do KDW.
KDW deserves a good flensing.
Bette Midler, draws the ire after branding people in West Virginia as ‘poor, illiterate and strung out’
WV was a strong contender for my next destination. It is now an even stronger contender.
Love the tune, one of my favorite carols.
If our son had not decided he was staying in SC, WV may have been our destination. Still might be if we aren’t able to build or buy the permanent place we envision.
WV is my plan if VA cannot be saved.
Based on the small amount of people I have met from West Virginia (mostly in the service, but a few others), I would live in Mississippi first.
WV is basically the Ohio of the mountains.
Yeah Bette would definitely lose to Babs. She might still be able to take out Gretta though.
Cage Match!
I’m thinking more of a boiling tar wrestling match.
Omicron overtakes Delta, now accounts for 73% of all new U.S. COVID casesGood news everybody, a finally safe and effective vaccine is widely available for free and without coercion!
Which will provide natural immunity, which is much more robust than the “vaccine” induced “immunity”.
Shut up, roll up your sleeve, get your booster, and stop thinking for yourself.
Yes! Boost your chances of getting the virus!
Yet another colleague is taking a sick day because “not feeling well, recovering from the booster shot I had yesterday”. This has been a regular occurrence since the start of the vaccine protocols. Most of my co-workers are in the twenty- and thirty- something age group. Old man me hasn’t taken a sick day since first week of March 2020 when I was laid up for the better part of a week with a terrible cough. I wonder what that could have been.
We openly promote “recovery days” and incentives sick days, so our diehard covid folks have taken full advantage of it. Us techs? Let us work.
Us techs? Let us work.
And a big FY to those who don’t want to “let you work”.
I’m the only person in my department that hasn’t called in sick since I started 2 years ago. But, yanno, I’m unvaxxed, so I still have to wait to find out if Biden puts me out of work for being a health risk.
I was told that I am banned from the office until next week for being “exposed” (we sat at the same table for lunch…) to someone who “tested positive”. So here I sit at home, sipping coffee and commenting.
#1 son has been coughing up a lung since Friday, just got his test result back. He has the ‘vid, we might have to change some holiday plans. Oh, well.
“CDC officials do not have estimates of how many people have been hospitalized or died due to Omicron.”
You know, those would be good numbers to have. But since they don’t have them, let me estimate, very few and zero.
Kind of hoping my family gets the ‘cron. If it really is so mild.
I had the vid in October, don’t know if it was the OG, delta or omicron, but it was nothing. I had a fever, headache and sniffles off and on on a Sunday, did a home test Tuesday and it came back positive. Called my doctor and he suggested the mAb treatment do I did that Tuesday evening. Wednesday I was fine, loss of taste and smell, and slight fatigue not withstanding. Bonus is that I fall under the federal contractor mandate but I can’t get the jab until the middle of January due to the mAb treatment, and I am hoping it all goes away by then.
If their numbers are to be believed it was probably Delta that got you.
I sort of feel the same way.
So they can say it’s dominant but can’t tell us those numbers? Legit fucking science right there
It’ll take them 75 years to get that information together for public release. But trust them.
75 years? I’m not sure I can wait that long but I’ll try…
Change your handle to Eightscore!
“The U.K. study is at odds with data coming out of South Africa, where the vaccine efficacy is proving much higher against Omicron.”
One wonders how data from a country with a low vaccination rate can demonstrate the vaccine is effective, particularly against an overall background of low virulence for everyone who catches it.
And don’t they use horse dewormer and fishtank cleaner on the regular for other diseases there?
They do, as those drugs have strong anti-malarial properties.
I saw something last night about New York’s mask mandates and vaxx rules being completely ineffectual at making a difference in plague numbers, but unemployment is much higher than states like Florida and South Dakota.
So… call it a win.
That’s because SCIENCE! denying illiterates are defying the will of God’s mouthpiece on Earth. Those who defy the Holy Governette must be smited and all that.
Saw the Holy, Iron-fisted Mother today on the news, the years have not been kind to her.
A box of Chardonnay a day will do that.
Democrats: shut down your economy and then make fun of you for being poor.
Step 2: When people get pissed, blame Trump.
Both our neighbors have covid right now. I know the wife is vaxxed because she’s a teacher. My wife wants to make some food for them this evening.
My gf is a teacher, and she’s a pureblood.
Just sayin’
Of course, she ain’t one of those union teachers…
Public school in NJ – no choice if you want to stay.
BBB isn’t dead quite yet, it’s just pining for the fjords! Manchin will buckle under eventually as long as his state gets some pork just like the rest of them did on the stimulus bill. As mentioned in the previous thread, my Gov-issued ID showed up after six business days and the regular mail is backed up by four. Makes you wonder. I should know.
I’m holding out with a shred of hope.
He does have to answer to his constituents so he’s got that going for him.
Bette Midler gave him a powerful gift to resist, if he truly wants to, any other attempts on BBB or any other bill for that matter.
Keep your damn hands off my fjords!
Set blamethrowers on full blast
Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., on Monday blasted her Republican colleagues for not wearing face masks on Capitol Hill after several Democrats tested positive for breakthrough COVID-19 infections.
“We are working together closely,” Stabenow said on MSNBC. “People on my side of the aisle are uniformly wearing masks. Unfortunately, people on the Republican side, the majority, are not, which is also frustrating.”
The senator’s comments followed separate announcements Sunday by Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Cory Booker, D-N.J., and Rep. Jason Crow, D-Colo., that they tested positive for the coronavirus despite being fully vaccinated and receiving a booster shot. They all credited their mild symptoms with being vaccinated and boosted against the virus.
Or, you know, the masks do nothing. But don’t stop believing.
I credit the Sun god Ra. I have just as much proof.
Ra drools, Marduk rules!
You fool! It was Set that protected you from the ‘vid!
There isn’t a mask available that can stop GOP cooties.
I suspect there is one kind of mask that Progressives would love to try to stop conservative cooties from spreading.
I was expecting either a ball gag or a Hannibal Lector style mask.
I was expecting a plastic bag and duct tape.
“I can’t breathe”
that they tested positive for the coronavirus despite being fully vaccinated and receiving a booster shot
So the data actually shows the masks and ‘vaccines’ are ineffective.
They all credited their mild symptoms with being vaccinated and boosted against the virus.
How do they know it wasn’t because of the magic stone in their pocket? Or maybe the current omicron variant just isn’t very virulent anyway. Even the original Covid was only serious for a very small percentage of people with specific co-morbidities.
Hey everybody! Come check out my tiger
repelling stopping weakeningselecting rock!Or, you know, the masks and the boosters increase your chances of getting the virus.
“People on my side of the aisle are uniformly wearing masks. Unfortunately, people on the Republican side, the majority, are not, which is also frustrating.”
So you are all masked and vaxxed and still caught the commie cough? And you refuse to learn anything from this because MUH-SCIENCE.
The sudden flurry of government officials and persons like Cramer letting us know they are triple vaxxed and have omicron just seems too perfect.
I have seen calls that they either were never truly vaxxed or they are pushing a propaganda piece and lied about their test.
Since PCR tests don’t distinguish variant and I am guessing that sequencing your test isn’t am overnight operation…
It’s been bullshit from the start. All of these “new” sufferers are lying for their agenda.
You can’t spell “fraud” without FDA.
…checks out.
I did a test this AM and got a clean bill of health so I can take my trip tomorrow AM, but they are back to being panicked about people that are infected…
Now, Democrats’ bold agenda is stalled despite them controlling the House, Senate, and White House — a fact that won’t be lost on voters already concerned about a range of other issues.
Chief among those issues is soaring inflation, about which Manchin expressed deep concern on Sunday.
“It’s not transitory; it’s real,” Manchin said. “It’s harming every West Virginian. The cost of gasoline, the cost of groceries, the cost of utility bills — all these things are hitting at every aspect of life.”
Don’t you see? That just means we need more helicopter money.
Senator Hooker-Boots has been awfully quiet lately… Scuttle-butt says that there are plenty of like-minded hiding behind her skirts.
Re military getting in trouble for liking social media posts: As an outside observer, I’m certainly not a military guy, the cliff our armed forces have gone off over the past year has been astonishing from my view. Why the fuck would anyone ever enlist or choose it for a career?
Some people want to better themselves, some folk just want to push paper, some others don’t know what else to do and need someone else to do that for them.
The Army missed recruitment goal last year but made up with retention. Keep your eye on that the next couple of years. I don’t see any way they are going to meet recruitment.
They can always move the goal posts.
That is essentially what they did last year – by talking about improved retention. But the reality is the machine operates on new blood.
The Soviets had a system like this. They had a Zampolit to make sure the officers & troops were loyal to the people in power and their agenda above all else….
Last week the Air Force declared that commanders must collect the demographic information of all award winners to ensure awards are being distributed equitably across all ethnicities and gender identities (their words. I thought about posting the memo here).
Yesterday they declared pronouns acceptable in signature blocks.
Last year they updated the words to the Air Force song to be gender neutral. The lyrics used to say “at ’em boys, give ‘er the gun!”. Now it’s “at ’em now, give ’em the gun!”
Our adversaries are going to eat our lunch.
So much for tradition…which is a huge part of any service. Can’t wait to hear from my employees that are also military and have to write EPRa
So the next few thousand Silver Stars need to go to wimmenfolk?
As long as it’s not Gold Stars to their mothers
Nah. Bring it on. They voted for it.
The military is for woke marxist training, not fighting and winning wars.
Is it still “Airmen”?

My Army years were some of the best years of my life, not solely because that’s how I met my own dear Mrs. Animal. I credit a great deal of my personal development as a young man to my time wearing Uncle Sam’s green. I look back on that time fondly, and am proud to have once been a part of the big green machine; I was a soldier.
That said, if a young person asked me today – say, one of my grandsons – I’d tell them to stay the hell away from any uniformed service just now.
Day #1 with a ‘normal’ temperature for now.
Im weak as hell, likely from living on Boost! and Ensure shakes for the past week or so.
Ill take an at-home test later to see if I fall into the negative category.
Current titty status: mending
You deserve some steak.
And eggs!
I grilled ribeyes on Sunday. I couldn’t taste mine 🙁
But it still had “mouth-feel”, right? God I hate that term like most women detest the word “moist”!
Use your imagination Peter!
I abused my time of having no taste to burn through some ciders the girlfriend had stashed in the basement for over six months. And these were not ciders that should have been aged.
Not gonna lie- Id eat an entire loaf of garlic bread with it.
That’s how you make really good steak sammiches.
Current titty status on your behalf – Huzzah!
I don’t recall. Did anyone else reenact the Holocaust in elementary school?

My replacement Fifth Grade teacher read us excerpts from The Gulag Archipelago. That sorta counts.
That’s awesome.
The guy she replaced was a mid-70’s “new ideas” type. Our school was used as a testing bed for many crazy and solid ideas. We were the first elementary school in the Province to mandate an hour of Gym, every day. Then we also gathered commies. At least one. “Learn at your your own pace, Lesbian seagulls!” Our classroom didn’t have desks, it had old ratty sofas, Grandpa’s EZ chairs, throw rugs and for some reason one of those old clawfoot tubs filled with pillows. Mr. Brenner was either the best or the worst teacher that I have ever had. He lasted until Xmas and then the hammer fell. We loved the only Jew that we had ever met and we all cried when he resigned.
So they brought in a hatchet job to cleanse our minds. It was jarring, to say the least but we did pass on to the next grade. Everybody that says that they want the 70’s back wasn’t a child back then.
Can confirm, at least as far as schooling went.
Good music though.
What kind of dogs and how far below freezing for how long? Our Huskys and Malamutes would stay outside all day of their own volition until the temp got around 0 F, then they’d want to come in after a couple hours.
My Pyrennes couldnt wait for winter. It could be 0º but if the sun was out, she’d spend all day laying on the snow.
When I could finally drag her stubborn ass in, she’d have ice hanging from her muzzle.
Can confirm.
leading to one death.
Not the kind that liked those temps, apparently.
We recreated a fascist dictatorship (among other things) in eighth grade. I don’t think we ever got to the point of killing the Jews…
My middle-school social studies teacher was a dyed-in-the-wool anarcho-syndie hippie, complete with guttural german accent. One of the best teachers I’ve ever had.
Practice for the fascist dictatorship that is being created now?
My high school history teacher would re-enact the Beer Hall Putsch speech, complete with firing a starter gun at the end.
The school put an end to that lesson in 89.
…the fuck?
Bad news at the free lunch counter
On Sunday, Sen. Joe Manchin, the conservative Democrat from West Virginia, said that he would not support the Biden administration’s $1.75 trillion Build Back Better agenda, likely killing the bill and with it the extension of the enhanced child tax credit.
Without the enhanced credit, nearly 10 million children are at risk of falling back below the poverty line or slipping even deeper into poverty, according to an analysis from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a progressive think tank.
If you stop giving people free money, they have less free money.
Huh.
I wonder how they have redefined “poverty” this week.
“killing the bill and with it the extension of the enhanced child tax credit.”
They could just vote on that separately, what’s that, democrats have no intention of doing so?

The special pizza yesterday was kielbasa and pierogi.
A place up here has a pierogi omelet:
Pierogi pancake stuffed w/scrambled eggs, kielbasa, cheddar, home
fries, roasted garlic mashed potatoes, side of sauerkraut
Then another place has on their appetizer menu pierogi, which is one giant pierogi (think dessert plate sized).
I’ve not had pierogi pizza, but kielbasa on pizza is the boss.
South Africa says vaccines and natural immunity are limiting latest Covid wave
Natural immunity is garbage, need 3 shots like all of the people who have been positive recently.
In a country with a low vaccination rate…
Methinks Shabir might be full of shit.
Well, he’s at least acknowledging natural immunity is playing a role, unlike our US scientists who think recovering is just step one to reinfection and death.
Senator Hooker-Boots has been awfully quiet lately… Scuttle-butt says that there are plenty of like-minded hiding behind her skirts.
Tester (D MT) poked his head above the parapet and voted with Manchin and the Repubs on the vaxx mandate thing. Maybe he just drew the short straw. Or maybe he doesn’t want to go back to tending his bean fields full time.
Raising it up, waxing it down.
Does he leave the sweet stuff for somebody else?
Nice!
As predicted, teen passed his driver’s test. Now I have two 16 year old drivers on my insurance. *eyes bank account and cries*
Cancel the car insurance and just get that $1 a day life insurance on them both. “If you’re gonna crash, make sure you’re not coming out of it.”
My Dad never let me drive his cars. Ever. Wise man. I had to buy and fix my own.
They have 6 months to fix up thr Exploder before I donate it. They have jack all shit about it.
Lock the tool-crib! Seriously, dude.
I wonder how they have redefined “poverty” this week.
Hey, look at this. If we just move this line on the graph, we can cure poverty!
Replace ‘cure’ with ‘exacerbate’ and you have the right idea.

Treasurer is not emailing me back about how to go about spending my budget. I wanna order targets NAO!
Ofc, I really need to reserve a big part of the budget for 2x4s. I imagine that they’ll have a limited lifespan against shotguns. They don’t last all that long against handgunners with a modicum of skill.
Those 2x4s may cost more than the steel
/supply chain woes
The good(?) thing is there’s only three more meets, so I can probably get away with only needing four or five 8’ers this year.
Although if the January one is well-enough attended, we might go to 2x/month.
If you haven’t listened Tom Woods interview with Mark Crispin Miller this week, you need to.

Thanks, I’ll check it out. I’ve seen him interviewed a few times. He’s a great listen.
I see that Kyle Rittenhouse has decided not the low key, quiet life but rather get swallowed up by the GOP propaganda machine. Can’t defend that bud. Should have just disappeared onto a farm in Wyoming or something.
I get the feeling he’s a rather simple kind of guy, totally not prepared for the ways people will use him.
I kinda get it. For over a year you were completely shit on and this helps mend that ego but yeah, people will take full advantage of it.
This
He shoulda learned something from his first attorney relationship.
He said on some podcast he likes thicc women. It was a weird listen, but he also spent a lot of time shitting on Binger.
he is a teen and probably not terribly bright. I mean if Greta is a star why not, he probably thinks. Maybe he wants to fuck Greta up the ass like someone we know, but without forking big bucks for it.
Somebody is egging him on and they should just stop with that bullshit. The kid killed two guys and maimed another. He needs to decompress or he is going into a downward spiral just like the guy that murdered Obama’s son. Leave off!
Should have just disappeared onto a farm in Wyoming or something.
After suing the majority of MSM into nonexistence.
Well yeah, that too.
The Department of Defense unveiled new guidance regarding the promotion of what it defines as political extremism in the ranks.

He’s not known as The Commie Pope for nothing.
Based on his support of the Argentine military junta, I’d say he’s more of a traditional fascist.
Toss off 2000 years of religious tenets and instead of following orders, you get to say you are just following God’s will.
Shit like that is why I walked away from the Catholic Church in the 1990s. It’s not new, just more open now.

I totally agree, Senor Pope. I take it you are planning to set an example by giving your life? That would be a service to others, for sure.

Overnight Thought #1 – You might try to ignore Xmas but Xmas does not ignore you.

Yesterday, as I was figuring out how to pay my Idaho Power bill, I went into my bank on line bill pay feature, and was greeted by an urgent read-and-agree-to update to user terms. I skimmed through, and one of the sections was “shall not be used for purchase of firearms, ammo, et c.” They have apparently just added Zell(?). I wonder who owns them, and if that was the reason for the change.
WTF? Kiss my ass. How are they going to know what I bought when I pay my AmExp bill, anyway?
Fortunately, I had too many other things on my mind to let it really piss me off.
So are there user terms that you can’t use your money in your bank account to buy firearms, ammo, etc.? Or is this specific to not using Zell (a cash transfer app) for that perfectly legal purpose?
Regardless, how hard would it be to change banks?
How convenient.
Pfizer is about to buy Arena Pharmaceuticals for $6.7 billion. Arena is a biopharmaceutical company focused in part on cardiovascular and inflammatory medicines to a global patient cohort. A majority of mainstream news outlets have focused their reportage on Arena’s bowel disease treatment, while failing to mention the firm’s cardiovascular research.
Utah-based Arena has existing partnerships with United Therapeutics, who focus their research efforts on pulmonary arterial hypertension. Pfizer’s decision to acquire Arena and their relationship with United Therapeutics is certain to net the company more in return than the bowel disease treatment touted by the corporate press.
Arena’s Crunchbase page also boasts the company’s focus on cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases. A post on their website states the company is “expanding our capabilities to study cardiovascular conditions.”
Nothing to see here. Move along,
subjectcitizen.Cohort
Pharma has increasingly moved into drugs to treat the side effects of the drugs they already hooked you on, so this should be no surprise.

Looking at getting some gift cards for my niece and her husband (both in their mid 20’s). My decision is do I go for brewery gift cards for breweries that they’ll go to anyways, or fancy cocktail bars which they probably wouldn’t spend their own money on. They do like both beer and cocktails, so they will be used regardless.
Gift cards to new places that they would never go to serve a dual purpose. Either they go and find a new place or regift. Win-win
+1 cocktail bars
OBE and rhywun are right.
Ditto. Gifts should be something special and different.
if you buy a gift card, they drink for a day. If teach them to brew, they will always have drink
The husband has home brewed in the past, and I taught my niece how to make wine (from a kit, but it was still making wine) for her 20th birthday.
I believe both of them have also been to the cocktail bars as well, but even I’m not going to regularly frequent a place where drinks are $15-$20 each. But as the consensus appears to be fully in favor of the cocktail bars, looks like that’s where I’ll be heading tomorrow after work to get shopping done.
FNC is asshoe.
Can confirm: Fox News just announced an official vax mandate, giving employees until next week to comply. Those who refuse to take the mRNA shots are going to be placed on unpaid leave, starting Dec 27th.
No, you can’t test out of it and Fox does not recognize recovered individuals. They will not let you in the NY building w/out company vetted COVID shot documentation.
Fox is coercing employees w financial incentives to take the shots. Most have taken the money.
Get the experimental jab, or else.
Fox does not recognize recovered individuals.
Isn’t there a waiting period after you have recovered for getting vaxxed?
I thought that it was considered bad practice to get vaxxed for a disease from which one has already contracted and recovered.
It is.
Not in Humanity starting a New Game+
Well right, but I’m saying even those who want to force it regardless at least admit you should wait 3 months (or something like that).
I hope these companies coercing employees to take a novel mRNA shot get taken to the cleaners when they start getting sued for adverse effects.
Excellent. Time for the GOP to put up or fuck off…
Recent polling shows the American people overwhelmingly disapprove of Biden’s handling of inflation and of the economy more broadly. Most voters say they’re concerned about the economy now and moving forward.
A large majority of voters also disapprove of Biden’s handling of crime and immigration, according to recent polls. And while a slim majority favor his approach to the coronavirus pandemic, that figure has hit an all-time low. One reason for the steep drop might be the wave of court rulings against his vaccine mandates, along with a number of other recent legal defeats in which federal judges have found Biden’s policies violate the Constitution.
No shit, Shirley?
The problem is they just don’t have good enough messaging. The mainstream media isn’t doing their part.
“Some Republicans have raised concerns that anti-extremism policies will be used against commonplace conservative views.”
Ummmm… duh? That was always the point right?
NB: Watch how quickly “commonplace conservative views” morphs into “insufficiently Marxist”.
I would say this was in the works for religious exemptions granted and a backhanded way of getting rid of them, but the military didn’t give two shits about religious views and denied them all..
If only there was a historical example of the negative results of purging the ranks for ideological purposes…
You do realize that the military that purged the senior ranks still beat the Nazis. So, not quite the negative results you might be looking for.
Yup, we’re to optimistic to think lefties can’t fight.
The question is, who are they willing to fight?
Right now, it seems like mainly us.
With a little help from a few millions of Brits and Americans, sure.
How did they do right out of the purge gate against Finland?

Narrative shift, off the port bow!
Covid confusion is the theme of the moment. Where are the tests? How often should you test if you have access to testing? What should you do if you test positive, even if you have no symptoms? Which protocols should apply for vaxxed and boosted adults versus those who are unvaccinated by choice? Is anyone answering these Qs?
It’s time for a shift
Specifically, a shift toward focusing on severity instead of case numbers. More and more vaccinated and boosted adults are coming around to the view that everyone will get infected by Covid eventually. Vaccinations usually reduce a mighty beast to a minor annoyance. So will US officials help shift the thinking about this subject?
CNN’s Kevin Liptak and Jeremy Diamond report that “some of Biden’s advisers are encouraging the administration to begin discussing publicly how to live alongside a virus that shows no signs of disappearing.” However, “steering public attention away from the total number of infections and toward serious cases only — as some Biden advisers have encouraged — could prove a challenge after nearly two years of intense focus on the pandemic’s every up and down.”
What’s that you say? A case is 24 cans?
The way I heard it, every infection is LETHAL. Don’t tell me Foochy was wrong about that. It might weaken my faith in the public health mandarinate.
I guess they didn’t like the reaction to Biden’s “dark cold winter of severe illness and death”.
Well, in the long term, everyone dies. So every infection is fatal. That’s how this works, right?
I’m sure that if I die 10 years from now, it will be due to the ‘vid.
The mob only cares about case numbers because you tell them to. You can get the useful idiots, the Karens and the Darrens, to parrot something else within 24 hours, easy.
What should you do if you test positive, even if you have no symptoms?
Conclude that the test is bullshit and go on with your life.
Vaccinations usually reduce a mighty beast to a minor annoyance.
Not traditionally.

I missed this part from Midler. Looks like someone missed US government 101.

That’s one of the things I don’t get about our current political class (especially Democrats). The political class has always been corrupt and has always had terrible ideas. But, at least previous generations were sort of tethered to reality. They understood you needed to keep the cow alive to continue milking it. This generation seems to think you can kill the cow (not to get at some reserve of milk, but simply because cows are icky) and the milk will somehow continue to magically appear. I see these guys closing off a lot of options and burning a lot of bridges. Where do they think it all winds up?
That’s why they’re looting everything they can while they can.

Was Ronald Bailey always this bad?
Probably
Yes
I’ve had some back and forth with him over vaccines in the past. He’s reflexively pro-vaccine and has never been willing to admit that they come with some costs.
But he’s reached a new low and I think it has to do with resentment of his rural roots which he has alluded to in the past. He wants to be associated with those icky people in no way.
He wants to be associated with those icky people in no way.
And that seems to be the problem with the leadership of the libertarian movement, generally. When it comes to a choice of standing up for libertarian principle or not aligning with what they view as society’s more retrograde elements, they’ll always go with the latter. People who’ll acknowledge that liberty sometimes means defending terrible people when it comes to drug dealers or pornographers or “sexual degenerates”, can’t seem to hold the same line when it comes to defending rednecks or “conspiracy theorists”.

Yesterday my new passport came in the mail, after only 17 days. That has to be some sort of record. But the Mrs. didn’t get hers. I’m not sure if the US State Department is trying to tell me something.
I also found out some of our Christmas plans are canceled due to my step-mom-in-law getting COVID. She is pretty sick, but I think she’s getting antibody treatment so hopefully that works for her. (Yes she is vaccinated).
Report your wife to ICE! Have them take the kids too. (maybe the Feds will lose them and you can really cash in). When the ICE goons break in, you can show them your passport.

Remember when the Lefties would mock Bush for his stupidity in Iraq? Specifically how they fired all the wrong thinkers in the Iraqi army and set them adrift with no pay or prospects? How they’d laugh and ask why anyone was surprised when those young men with military training turned violent?

I have to admit why she undertook such a big task. In my experience, West Virginians do a pretty good job of self identifying as poor, illiterate and strung out all on their own. A huge brand scar isn’t really needed.

Out of curiosity what is the general opinion around here regarding legalizing insider trading?
just like steroids why not
It should probably be legal. But, I can see it being a civil matter between the information “owners” and the inside trader. It’s hard to see that it isn’t a misappropriation of information given to the trader for a legitimate business purpose.
If insider trading is illegal, how can anyone ever sell shares in their own company?
There’s ways to do that. Waiting periods (to allow any inside info to go public and affect the stock price) is the traditional one. Another for publicly traded companies would be to sell it back to the company, which can reissue it, with the sale price to the company being some kind of trailing average.
But the company itself is privy to the same information, right? So why wouldn’t reissuing, or even the initial issuing of the stock be insider trading?
The company itself doesn’t owe a fiduciary duty, only some of the people who work for the company. The inside information belongs to the company, which is supposed to profit from what it owns.
Let’s say the company sells just before bad news breaks that tanks the stock. The company has collected a premium, which inures to the benefit of shareholders generally (although the ones who bought from the company before the news broke are in a different position).
Let’s say the company sells just before good news breaks that drives the price up. The first question is, why would it do that, when it knows good news is coming which will allow it to sell at a higher price? But lets say it does so anyway. The shareholders who bought at teh lower price benefit (of course), which may lead to inquiries about whether someone at the company disclosed inside information to them. But its hard to see material damage done to the other shareholders – they were diluted by the sale of the shares, but the dilution is mitigated by what the company got for the new shares. Throw in that the value of their shares went up anyway when the good news breaks, and its hard to put your finger on actual harm done to them.
Underlying all this is the mechanics of how publicly traded stock gets issued and sold. Investors don’t buy directly from the company. Stock the company issues/sells goes into the pool of stock otherwise being traded, so you can’t trace any given share of stock somebody purchases back to the company, which makes assigning “blame” for selling stock before the release of news hard to do.
For it to be insider trading, it must be driven by information that meets two conditions:
– material
– non-public
i.e., the information needs to be significant (i.e., if others knew it, it would drive shares up or down) and non-public is just that – has to be information people outside the company don’t know.
I know lots of non-public about my company, but little of it is material.
Sometimes I do get material, non-public information (e.g., we’re going to buy a company and I need to be looped in early for some technical reason). They keep that information close to their chests and make it clear when it is both material & non-public.
For the c-suite, where they’re awash in material, non-public information, they buy and sell on a preset schedule – i.e., they declare months in advance that the’ll be buying or selling X amount on Y date.
With a proper definition of insider, it should be illegal. Fiduciaries to a company owe a duty to shareholders that overrides their personal interests. Insider trading violates those fiduciary duties.
Should it be civil or (also) criminal? Depends on whether you think insiders are appropriating (read, maybe, stealing) company property (the nonpublic information they trade on). If so, criminal should be on the menu.
hmmm that is not a bad point
Devils advocate here. Keeping it illegal gives the illusion that the markets are fair and that insider trading doesn’t happen. Also allowing insider trading would cause share prices to more accurately reflect the company’s situation.
The best argument for allowing insider trading is that it speeds the flow of information to the markets.

The lithium story is interesting. Like magnesium and cobalt, the CCP has us all by the short hairs. I wonder when we wake up, tell the fake environmentalists to go get fucked and start mining.
It isn’t even the mining. All of the lithium in the world, 100%, is processed in China.
It’s the processing that is the hard biscuit to bite. We can’t do it here anymore.
No, it’s the mining as well. We need to re-learn that little thing called ‘trade-offs’.
Falcon 9’s 31st and final launch of 2021
94 percent all missions this year were carried out by SpaceX’s fleet of flight-proven orbital class rocket boosters
https://twitter.com/SpaceX/status/1473273538932998145
94% of 31 is 29,14 which makes no sense
WTF is up with you euros and using commas instead of decimals? Do you use decimals where we use commas? Or do you just use a shit ton of commas?
Do you use decimals where we use commas? – yes
I mean in numbers, not in sentences.
This is annoying for me because the software that generate bills I receive by mail usually put . as a decimal separator, but my online banking software which I use to pay the bills needs , so I cannot just copy paste the sum, I need to change the separator.
even more annoying is excel uses ; as a default separator which means the comma separated value files some soft generate do not automatically open correctly in an excel sheet and most people do not know how to change the separator and sometime call me to ask, as if it is my fucking job
94% would mean there were 33 missions, 31 of which were SpaceX. But obviously there were a lot more than that overall. Maybe they meant to say NASA missions?

Important caveat.
OMFG! This might be the funniest comedy bit I’ve heard in years. Of course, it comes from 2016.
The analysis of the Labor Department’s November unemployment data from the Republican National Committee (RNC) research team uncovered that the Republican-led states continued to outperform Democrat-led states in job recovery for 17 of the top 20 states, and the lowest unemployment in 16 of the top 20 states.
Those Democrat states are just experiencing bad luck.
Some Republicans have raised concerns that anti-extremism policies will be used against commonplace conservative views.
“Raised concerns”. Weak sauce. We know what these policies will be used for.
The Repubs were eager participants alongside the Dems in purging those radical Tea Partiers back in the day. There is no question establishment Repubs hated the Tea Party far more than they disliked their Dem colleagues. So I would say this is probably less “raised concerns” than “expressed hope”.
?
I’m under no illusions of what the establishment Republicans think.
So last night, I spent some time with one of the Altar Boys watching the Vikes try to give the game to the Bears (only to have the refs intervene and save their purple bacon).
There were several PSA’s – that I can’t find today – about how important it is to get kids vaccinated, that reduced me to a spittle spewing maniac. Some guy was talking to a “doctor” who made blatantly dishonest claims.
In one she said that the risk to kids from Covid was higher than from the vax. I have no idea where she got that “fact” from. In another she claimed that Covid was a Top Ten killer of kids. I thought that was nuts, but it turns out that there is a bit of truth to it.
Of course, if I was a professional fact checker, I would give that claim a “needs context” rating. Yes it is tied for 8th. But it is a) because an astonishing low number of kids die and b) is still behind the flu. So if you are terrified of the Rona, you should be even more scared of the flu.
It’s cumming.
One wonders, as always, how many otherwise healthy children die from the ‘Vid.
Basically none.
https://www.bbc.com/news/health-57766717
In a U.S. study they had to guess because there were zero examples of otherwise healthy kids dying of rona in some age groups.
It’s also behind “Diseases of the heart” and it’s tied with “Suicide”. I wonder where those were ranked two years ago.

https://www.statista.com/statistics/241488/population-of-the-us-by-sex-and-age/
66 kids aged 5-11 dying from covid, out of (significantly?) more than 20,000,000 (2 extra years of kids there). That’s a tiny number. Tragic for those involved, but that goes for all causes of child deaths.
How many of those were otherwise perfectly healthy kids?
zero
Even most adults who die ‘of covid’ have multiple comorbidities.
The deaths of the vulnerable children are indeed tragic.
So is the permanent psychological and sociological damage inflicted on the other 20 million children by Covid Panic.
This is almost certainly worse. Some parents out there really messing their kids up by not socializing or anything while making them scared of everyone else.
There is going to be an entire generation of super-fucked-up, socially-damaged people to deal with down the road. Yay.

I think I know the answer to that.
Does anyone know how long it takes to actually perform a PCR test?
I don’t mean how long does it take for them to send the sample and actually get to it and report results, but how long the test actually takes to do?
There’s like one unvaccinated NHL player in the entire league. Everyone among the Bruins is fully vaccinated, yet so many tested positive for covid that they could barely assemble enough players for their last game.
NHL paused all games until after Christmas. I wish they would have done it a day earlier so the Wild wouldn’t have been ass raped by the Stars,
Not to mention – how many were actually sick/symptomatic?

I prefer Unclean, but it needs a counterpart for the vaxxed. I’ve tried the Elect, which captures their soaring self-righteousness and sneering condescension, but it seems a little disconnected from “Unclean”.
I’d prefer something that is more neutral, for both sides. Usually jabbed/unjabbed?
I don’t think it is a crazy decision to get the jab, if you have the right risk profile. It just isn;t for me.
The neat thing about calling them the Elect – is they don’t immediately realize you are insulting them.
And that’s a problem.
